Celestial Love Potion: November 29th- December 4th, 2021
Galactic Greetings!
Eclipse season is in full swing, initiating brand new themes which we will be working with individually and collectively for the next 18-months. In our last column, we featured the incoming Taurus-Scorpio themes which will hallmark this next eclipse cycle. In this blog entry, we will finally wrap up the Gemini-Sagittarius storylines we’ve been working with since May 2020.
As it is eclipse season, be sure to practice your immune-boosting rituals! I’m over here with a cold, which isn’t slowing me down too much, but it makes for an itchy nose! Not super ideal as I prepare to record the video versions of this month’s Moonrise Forecast for Patreon memebers. If you’re interested in a personalized and extended forecast each month, join me for only $5 per month! It helps fund the creation of all the forecasts I consistently create year-round.

This week we toast to Neptune, psychedelic enchantress who assists in the elevation of the spirit via transportation of consciousness. Mars in Scorpio forms a trine to Neptune, which can facilitate somatic healing experiences by way of creative visualization. If you can dream it, then your vision is actualized in another dimension. The ancients believed that there was little differentiation between the astral plane and the earthly dimension. It’s all one. It’s all consciousness. Which is why there were entire Asclepian temples dedicated to dreaming. Initiates would seek personal healing via dream interpretation (perhaps one of the earliest forms of psychoanalysis), vision quests and connection with beings from other realms.
As Neptune stations direct at 20°24’ Pisces on 12/1, dreams will become more vivid and it will be more challenging to wake up! If you’re feeling a little foggier than usual around this time, it’s either because you’re dreaming more deeply – or – the cosmos are inviting your to rest, become more receptive and to your creative day-dreams. Like popping an atavan and arriving in the Bahamas, Neptune is here to imbibe us with a sacred tea blend designed to lift us up to the cloud forest. Heed the call to check out from the never-ending queue of mundane tasks. Seek magic. Seek rest. Seek connection.
Venus in Capricorn’s sextile to Neptune is an aspect we will be working with for several months as Venus makes her way through retrograde motion over the next few months. This is the pair’s first exotic encounter, which perks our ears to the tunes which stir our spirit to higher heights. It’s a total heart activation, a connection-bridger and a creative cocktail encouraging collaboration for the future. Venus in Capricorn wants us to fall in love with our standbys again. Stoke the flames of enchantment with one another and with our craft. This aspect can also help you to get clear on the future of creative or collaborative endeavors and to reformulate new dreams for the future.
Overall, this Neptunian combo is the ultimate aphrodisiac. Fall in love with what calls you.
Total Solar Eclipse - 12/3 + 12/4
