Natal Aspect: Sun Square Jupiter (The Daring Dreamer) ✨

Sun square Jupiter is the human equivalent of a firework, loud, dazzling, and impossible to ignore.

They’ve got the kind of confidence that could sell umbrellas in the desert, and half the time, they make you believe they actually could. Their generosity is legendary; they’ll buy the drinks, tip the band, and invite strangers to join the table. But sometimes, that generosity comes with a side of “Oh crap, how do I pay for this?”

The good? These people breathe life into every room they walk into. They’re the pep talk you didn’t know you needed, the friend who sees your potential before you do. They aim high, sometimes so high you can’t even see the target anymore, and their belief in possibility can be contagious.

The bad? That same optimism can turn into overreach. They gamble on ideas without checking the odds, commit to more than they can deliver, and forget that even the most beautiful visions need a little boring practicality to survive. Their “go big or go home” mindset can sometimes mean…they go home broke.

But here’s the magic, when they figure out how to anchor those big dreams with a dash of reality, they become unstoppable. They still bring the sparkle, still swing for the fences, but now they’re actually hitting home runs instead of just talking about them.

Aspects That Indicate Sociopathy in a Birth Chart

Mercury Square Pluto 🧠🦂

The Mind of a Manipulator. Obsessed with control over information. Lies are layered. Words are weapons. This is spy-level intellect with a side of psychological warfare. Can gaslight, dig for secrets, and use knowledge like blackmail.

Mars Square Neptune 🪓🪞

The Saboteur. Aggression hides behind a smile. This combo can manifest as the silent assassin, manipulative, sneaky, and deceptive. May fake weakness, play the victim, or attack through confusion, addiction, or betrayal.

Venus Square Pluto 💔🖤

The Love Predator. Love is a power game. This aspect can indicate possessiveness, seduction with strings attached, jealousy disguised as passion, and deep emotional manipulation. Think: love bombing, ghosting, repeat.

Moon Conjunct Pluto 🌑🕳️

The Emotional Puppet Master. Intensely private and emotionally reactive. Can weaponize vulnerability, manipulate through guilt, and hold emotional grudges like they’re family heirlooms. Feels everything, and makes sure you do too.

Justin Bieber’s Biggest Vice According to Astrology

Justin Bieber has True Lilith in the 4th House Retrograde

In sign of Aries @ 2 Degrees (Taurus + Supreme Power Degree)

Conjunct Asteroid Lucifer

Trine Scorpio Ascendant

Square Asteroid Narcissus

Justin Bieber's vice isn’t fame. It’s not money, girls, or even the wreckage he occasionally leaves behind. It’s his own fire. The one that starts in the pit of his soul and doesn’t care if it burns down the house it was meant to warm. True Lilith, the dark feminine, isn’t just a cosmic bad girl, she’s rebellion wearing red lipstick and a defiant smirk. And when she sets up shop in the 4th House, the house of roots, home, and the emotional foundation you didn’t get to choose, she becomes the storm that is the home. In Aries, she’s raw. Pure instinct. No filter. No brakes. Imagine being born with your heart already on fire, in a crib that felt too small for the kind of passion you couldn’t yet name.

And 2 degrees we have Taurus territory. A supreme power degree. I sense this gives him a strange paradox, an urge to anchor his identity in peace and generosity, while his inner world is this restless wildfire, always scanning for the next enemy, the next fight, or the next person to save. True Lilith here wants to help. This isn’t the selfish kind of fire. It’s the kind that says, “If I’m burning, at least let me light someone else’s way.” And that’s beautiful. Dangerous, but beautiful.

His True Lilith is also retrograde, this is ancestral. Retrograde True Lilith in the 4th isn’t just about childhood pain, it’s about carrying the pain of the entire bloodline. And in Aries, that pain centers on agency, the right to be, to choose, to fight for your own life and your own identity without guilt. I sense Justin didn’t just grow up without emotional safety; he inherited a legacy of people suppressing themselves, playing nice, swallowing rage and calling it loyalty. That karmic suppression gets funneled into him like a red-hot arrow in reverse.

But here’s where the vice comes in: Asteroid Lucifer is conjunct Lilith. Lucifer isn’t evil, he’s the fallen angel, the rebel, the one who refused to bow. He’s the part of you that says, “No one owns me.” And paired with Lilith in Aries? He doesn’t whisper. He shouts. He makes you allergic to control, even when the person trying to help you is, well…trying to help you. That manifests for Justin as self sabotage hidden inside good intentions. Think of every time he has tried to reclaim his image, start fresh, find God, propose to peace, and then somehow blows it up from the inside out. That's Lucifer pressing the self-destruct button labeled freedom. Not because he’s evil. Because he's terrified of being caged. 

Now layer in the trine to a Scorpio Ascendant. Trines are easy energy, things that come naturally. So for Justin, transforming, reinventing, rising from ashes? That’s second nature. But what most people miss is the emotional depth required to do that. Scorpio is not surface-level. It’s deep-sea diving in pitch black. And when that Ascendant trines Lilith, it makes the rebellion magnetic. He doesn’t just rebel, he seduces with it. People want to watch him fall. And then they want to watch him get back up. Over and over. But this pattern has a cost.

The final twist? The square to Asteroid Narcissus in Capricorn in the 2nd House. This is where the emotional landmine gets buried. Narcissus doesn’t mean he’s obsessed with his reflection. It means his sense of worth is in a wrestling match with performance. Capricorn in the 2nd wants control, structure, legacy. It says, “Show me your resume before I decide if you’re lovable.” And Lilith screams, “I don’t need to earn love, I am love.” But they clash. Hard. This square is emotional whiplash: flip-flopping between trying to own his worth through external achievement, and resenting anyone who makes him feel like he has to earn it in the first place. One minute he’s building empires. The next, he’s ghosting everything. I intuitively feel that this manifests in his life through a constant cycle: create something meaningful, attach his worth to it, get too close to a feeling of control, then blow it all up so he can feel free again.

My person advice to Justin? I want you to stop seeing this fire as a flaw. It’s not your vice. It’s your weapon. But you’ve been using it to cut yourself open instead of carving out the life you want. You don’t need to perform rebellion anymore. You are rebellion. That’s not something you prove, it’s something you wield, consciously.

Build the home you never had. Not the mansion. Not the fanbase. The emotional home inside you that doesn’t need to explode just because someone closes a door. Let people in, but keep your boundaries electric. Channel that Lilith fire into protecting your peace instead of fighting imaginary wars. Be generous, but stop trying to be everyone's savior. If someone can’t meet you with the same emotional depth, don’t water yourself down, walk.  And next time that inner voice tempts you to burn it all down just to feel something again? Don’t give in. Find something real to set on fire, like a dream, a cause, or a version of yourself that doesn’t need applause to survive.

true lilith through the signs ✨

Ahhhh True Lilith. She’s the part of you that doesn’t follow the rules, and doesn’t feel bad about it. True Black Moon Lilith in your chart shows where you reject expectations, where your desires don’t fit the mold, and where you might feel judged or misunderstood for wanting what you want. She’s not about being polite or digestible!!

She’s raw instinct. Emotional power. And yeah, sometimes she’s the reason you push people away or pull them too close. Lilith reveals your biggest vice, your secret weapon, and the place where you either reclaim your power or get stuck in the shame loop. She’s not evil. She’s not broken. She’s just honest, and a little wild.

Let’s look at how she shows up in each sign.

It’s not always pretty, but it is real. 😈

Lilith in Aries ✨ You want control. All of it. First in line, first in bed, first to leave when things stop thrilling you. You chase chaos like it’s foreplay and call it “independence.” Impulse is your drug, and if dominance was a crime, you’re already guilty.

Lilith in Taurus ✨ Luxury. Pleasure. Repetition. You crave the sensual until it rots. You’d marry your bed if it came with silk sheets and a five-course meal. Comfort is your kink, and you’ll cling to it even when it suffocates you. If it smells like stability, you’re addicted.

Lilith in Gemini ✨ You want to know everything. And you will flirt, manipulate, or mentally seduce whoever holds the next piece of information. Your vice? Words as weapons. You talk circles around the truth until even you forget what’s real. Chaos, but make it clever.

Lilith in Cancer ✨ You hunger to be needed, then secretly resent it. You smother with one hand and ghost with the other. Your vice is emotional manipulation disguised as nurturing. You want power through connection, even if it means weaponizing your tears.

Lilith in Leo ✨ You want to be worshipped. Not liked, adored. The vice? Vanity, but with sparkle. You’ll burn down the room just to be seen rising from the ashes. Attention is your oxygen, and if you’re not the main character, you’re not interested.

Lilith in Virgo ✨ You want control through perfection. You sexualize being useful, obsess over flaws, and turn self-sacrifice into an Olympic sport. Your vice? Fixing others so you don’t have to feel your own mess. Clean on the outside, chaos in the bloodstream.

Lilith in Libra ✨ You seduce with politeness and manipulate through charm. Your vice? Playing nice while pulling strings. You crave harmony so much you’ll fake an entire personality to avoid confrontation, then implode when balance becomes a prison.

Lilith in Scorpio ✨ Let’s not lie: you want to own people. Body, soul, bank account. Your vice is total control disguised as intimacy. You seduce with shadows and sting when someone gets too close. If it’s not intense, obsessive, and possibly illegal, you’re bored.

Lilith in Sagittarius ✨ You want freedom more than love. More than peace. More than truth. Your vice? Running. You spiritualize your escape routes, ghost with a smile, and dress up commitment issues as wanderlust. You’ll burn bridges just to light your next adventure.

Lilith in Capricorn ✨ Power. Status. Achievement. You want it all and then some, and your vice is ambition without soul. You’ll climb the ladder with bloody hands if it means control. You seduce through authority, then wonder why you’re lonely at the top.

Lilith in Aquarius ✨ You want to be different just to not belong. Your vice is alienation on purpose. You seduce through shock value, detach when it gets real, and pretend your feelings are Wi-Fi signals: unstable and hard to trace. You crave freedom but sabotage connection.

Lilith in Pisces ✨ You want to disappear into fantasy. Your vice is emotional escapism, sex, substances, sad playlists. You romanticize suffering and call it “spiritual.” Boundaries? None. You’d rather drown in longing than live in reality. Beautiful, tragic, addictive.

pluto through the houses ✨

Congratulations, you didn’t come here for a peaceful life. Pluto is the planet of destruction, obsession, power, and rebirth. It doesn’t whisper. It kicks the door down, throws your illusions into a bonfire, and hands you a mirror like, “Fix it.”

Wherever Pluto lands in your chart, that area of life is getting dragged into the underworld, over and over...until you stop pretending and start transforming. Think: phoenix vibes, but with more screaming and less glitter.

This isn’t cute. It’s not soft. But it is where your deepest power lives.

Let’s get into what it means when Pluto sets up camp in each house, and yeah, it’s gonna get intense. But so are you.

Pluto in the 1st House ✨ Your aura screams don’t mess with me, even when you're smiling. You’ve been dismantled by life more times than you can count and came back sharper every time. People either want to become you or run from you. That’s not a personality, that’s a warning label.

Pluto in the 2nd House ✨ You’ve been broke, bought, sold, and reborn through it all. Attachment issues? Try possession exorcisms. You’ve had to burn down your self-worth just to find it wasn’t tied to things or people. You don’t just earn value, you resurrect it.

Pluto in the 3rd House ✨ You speak like you’ve swallowed every dark truth the world’s too scared to name. Childhood was a psychological thriller, and now your brain is a crime scene and a megaphone. You don’t have conversations, you have interrogations with eye contact.

Pluto in the 4th House ✨ Home was haunted, and not in the cute ghost way. You carry secrets in your bloodline that could write horror novels. Family drama? Try ancestral demolition. But here you are, building emotional security from wreckage like a one-person renovation crew with a grudge and a blueprint.

Pluto in the 5th House ✨ Your love life could be banned in 12 countries. You date like every relationship is your last, because half of them nearly were. Pleasure comes with power dynamics and maybe a few police reports. You create like a lightning strike, beautiful, blinding, and potentially lethal.

Pluto in the 6th House ✨ Work and health aren’t routines for you, they’re battlegrounds. You’ve probably had a complete body-mind reboot more than once, and if your job isn’t soul-altering, you quit or combust. Productivity becomes a religion, until you learn: you can’t control your way out of transformation.

Pluto in the 7th House ✨ You don’t attract lovers, you summon karmic assassins. Partnerships for you are spiritual surgeries. Every relationship rips open the exact thing you swore you’d healed. Love is a mirror, and you keep smashing it until you see something worth keeping.

Pluto in the 8th House ✨ You’ve probably made peace with death more times than most people floss. You’re magnetic, terrifying, and uncomfortably intuitive. Sex isn’t fun, it’s a séance. Secrets find you. You are the walking embodiment of “don’t go poking around unless you’re ready to know.”

Pluto in the 9th House ✨ You took belief systems, set them on fire, and then smoked the ashes for insight. You don’t travel to escape, you travel to dismantle your soul. Gurus fear you. You don’t follow paths, you bulldoze through them and build temples on the ruins.

Pluto in the 10th House ✨ Your career path looks like a controlled demolition site. You were never meant for mediocrity, you’re here to dominate.Authority figures either obsess over you or try to break you. Spoiler: they fail. You climb, fall, and rise again with a vengeance that rewrites the industry standard.

Pluto in the 11th House ✨ You’re the cult leader, the outcast, or the revolution. Groups either empower you or betray you in biblical ways. You don’t do “community” unless it’s forged in fire. Friendships are either ride-or-die, or dead on arrival. You change the world by tearing it a new one.

Pluto in the 12th House ✨ You’ve been to hell, and left a Yelp review. You feel things no one else can name. Your dreams could qualify as horror films, and your healing is a secret war. But behind your quiet exterior is an exorcist with a PhD in the unseen. The final boss of your life? Already met them. It was you.

With cosmic love and a little tough truth, ✨

Katy Perry’s Fall and the Astrology of Her Rise (Again)

Once upon a time, Katy Perry was untouchable. 

She lit up the charts with neon wigs, whipped cream bras, and the kind of confidence that made you believe in bubblegum dreams. She was a walking, singing firework, and we were all here for the show. But now? The spark has dimmed. The anthems aren’t hitting. The crowd isn’t roaring. Somewhere between “Witness” and Smile, the magic started slipping through her fingers. And no, it’s not just because people got tired of the gimmicks. It’s deeper. It’s written in the stars.

Let’s talk astrology, because Katy’s chart doesn’t lie, and honestly? It’s practically screaming midlife artistic reckoning.

Katy’s Midheaven, her career path and public image, is in the bold, center-stage sign of LEO. This placement craves the spotlight like a plant craves sunlight. But it’s at sixteen degrees, a Cancer and Karmic Debt Degree with themes around taming one's large ego. That means her soul signed up for a lifetime of earning attention by confronting her ego and asking: “Am I being seen for who I am, or just for the show I put on?” Lately, it’s been all show, no soul. And people can tell.

Midheaven Trine Lilith: The Creative Wild Woman

This is her hidden superpower and the part she keeps under lock and key. Lilith in Aries in the 5th house (creativity, expression, authentic joy) wants to burn the rulebook. She’s chaotic, primal, and doesn’t care if you’re uncomfortable. This is the Katy who writes about real pain, real anger, real want. This is the Katy who doesn’t need a costume to make you feel something—she is the feeling. And the trine to her Midheaven? That’s the universe begging her to lead with this raw power. But retrograde? She’s scared of unleashing it. Too real. Too much. Too risky. Girl, risk it. It’s literally in your chart.

Midheaven Square Moon: The Mask is Cracking

Now it gets emotional. Katy’s Moon, her inner world, her true feelings, is in Scorpio, in the 1st house, and in fall (meaning it’s not happy here). Translation? She feels everything, but trust? Vulnerability? Not her default. This Moon is private, protective, and intense as hell. And square to her Midheaven, it creates a constant tension: she thinks the public wants light, fun, and surface...but her soul is deep, dark, and swimming in emotion. This is why her image feels off lately. We see the cracks. We sense the disconnect. And we want her to stop hiding behind glitter and just bleed a little. 

Midheaven Square Saturn: Armor That’s Killing the Art

And here’s the real gut-punch, Saturn in the 1st house is like wearing emotional armor 24/7. In Scorpio? It’s not just armor, it’s barbed wire. She’s controlled. Reserved. Calculated. And square to her Midheaven, it creates a public image that feels...stuck. Like she’s dragging the ghost of her former self behind her. Saturn demands growth, but only through serious pain. And until she stops trying to “fix” her image and starts transforming it, the stagnation will keep dragging her down.

So What’s the Fix?

Based on Katy’s birth chart the way back isn’t more glitter, louder synths, or bigger hair. It’s not another cartoon music video or TikTok challenge. It’s the opposite. Strip it all down. No costumes. No characters. Just Katy. Tell the truth. Write the album that hurts. The one you’re scared to put out. Let your voice crack. Let the polish fade. Because that’s where your power is now Katy, not in the over-the-top production, but in the presence. This isn’t a fall from grace. This is the burn-it-down-to-build-it-better phase. The karmic reckoning. The comeback we’re dying to hear. And we’ll be right here, waiting, not for the next big single, but for the moment she finally stops performing and starts revealing.

With cosmic love and a little tough truth, ✨ Astro Ash Helping you navigate the stars, and yourself.

Why We’re Still Crushing on Adam Brody (It’s his Virgo Mars)

Look, I didn’t plan on falling for Adam Brody. But here I am, years after The O.C., still thinking about Seth Cohen’s quick wit and awkward charm like it’s 2004 and I’m thirteen again, doodling hearts in my notebook. And you know what? It’s not just nostalgia, it’s the stars. Yep, Adam Brody’s Mars placement is basically a cosmic recipe for being wholesome, lovable, and weirdly irresistible. So, let’s unpack this, shall we?

Mars is all about drive, passion, and how we go after what we want. In Adam’s chart, Mars sits in Virgo in the 7th house, the house of partnerships. This means his passion and energy are channeled into his relationships. He’s not just a "show up when it’s convenient" kind of guy. Nope, he’s all in. Virgo’s influence adds a layer of meticulousness and thoughtfulness. He’s the guy who pays attention to the little things, your coffee order, your dog’s name, that random fact you mentioned once about loving vintage typewriters. And because his Mars is at 9 degrees, a Sagittarius degree, he’s not just attentive—he’s adventurous, curious, and always ready to dive into deep, meaningful conversations. Think spontaneous road trips mixed with philosophical debates about whether pineapple belongs on pizza.

But it doesn’t stop there. His Mars placement forms a sextile with his Scorpio Moon in the 9th house. Now, a sextile is like a cosmic high-five...a supportive aspect that brings out the best in both planets. This combo means he’s got emotional depth (thanks, Scorpio Moon) and an adventurous spirit (shoutout to the 9th house). He FEELS things deeply but isn’t over-the-top about it. Instead, he’ll casually drop some profound, soul baring truth in the middle of a conversation about your favorite bands. And you’ll be left wondering how you’re suddenly talking about the meaning of life.

Now, here’s where it gets interesting. His Mars squares his 10th house Mercury in Sagittarius, creating a bit of tension. A square is like the universe saying, "Hey, you’ve got some stuff to work through." This means Adam might sometimes speak before he thinks, blurting out things that are hilariously honest. But honestly? That’s part of the charm and why the public loves him, it’s also why he feels so genuine, he’s not filtering himself to fit some image. With Mercury in Sagittarius, his thoughts are big, bold, and a little philosophical. He’s the guy at the party who’s cracking jokes one minute and waxing poetic about the universe the next. And then there’s Mars conjunct Jupiter, the cosmic equivalent of passion on steroids. This aspect screams optimism, enthusiasm, and a larger-than-life approach to everything he does. It’s why he lights up a room without even trying. He’s got that "I’m excited about life and I want you to be, too" energy. And honestly? It’s contagious.

So, why do we love Adam Brody? It’s not just the floppy hair and the sarcastic grin (though, let’s be real, that doesn’t hurt). It’s the way his Mars placement blends drive, thoughtfulness, emotional depth, and just the right amount of awkward. He’s the guy who’ll make you laugh, challenge your ideas, and remember the little things that make you feel seen. And with his recent role in Nobody Wants This and that adorable red carpet banter with Leighton Meester, it’s clear he’s still the same lovable, grounded guy we’ve always adored. Basically, Adam Brody’s Mars placement is like the perfect indie rom-com script...quirky, heartfelt, and impossible not to love.

Luigi Mangione's Birth Chart Decoded

Sun in Taurus @ 15 Degrees (Gemini Degree)

Conjunct Mars, Square Uranus, Opposite Chiron

Taurus energy grounds Luigi with determination and an instinct for survival, but the Gemini degree suggests an ever-present restlessness, as if he is forever carrying the weight of unmet expectations or unresolved inner battles. The conjunction with Mars magnifies his intensity, making him someone who operates with fierce conviction. His actions through life are deliberate, often fueled by an unshakable inner fire. However, the square to Uranus in the sign of Aquarius injects unpredictability. This is someone who doesn’t just disrupt; they shatter old patterns, often in ways that shock others. The opposition to Chiron in the sign of Scorpio speaks of emotional wounds that run deep, tied to betrayal or emotional power struggles. These wounds are like a hidden current, driving his need to protect himself, sometimes through drastic, viloent or destructive means. 

Moon in Virgo @ 21 Degrees (Sagittarius Degree)

Opposite Jupiter, Conjunct Fixed Star Denebola

Virgo moons are analytical, methodical, and driven by a need for control, but the Sagittarius degree suggests an emotional restlessness, a yearning to escape the confines of routine or circumstance. The presence of the fixed star Denebola amplifies Luigi’s nonconformity; he is not here to follow traditional paths but to carve out his own, even if it isolates him. The opposition to Jupiter in the sign of Pisces heightens the tension between practicality and emotional overwhelm. His mind craves order, but his heart often pulls him into situations where he must rely on intuition or faith. This inner conflict can manifest in struggles with self-doubt or indecision, as if his logical side is constantly at odds with a deeper, more spiritual knowing. He yearns for stability but is often drawn into chaos, a pattern that reflects his internal struggle to reconcile his need for control with life’s unpredictable nature.

Mercury in Aries @ 19 Degrees (Libra & Karmic Debt Degree)

Opposite Lilith

This placement stands out to me the most, it reveals a communicator who is both bold and burdened by past-life lessons. Mercury in Aries thrives on directness and a sharp intellect, often driving him to speak with unflinching honesty. He doesn’t shy away from conflict, especially when it comes to asserting his ideas. The karmic energy of the Libra degree suggests he is here to learn the balance between independence and collaboration, as his communication can sometimes alienate those who would otherwise support him. The opposition to Lilith in the sign of Libra adds a provocative edge, making his words powerful enough to expose hidden truths, yet often leaving emotional fallout in their wake. He speaks his mind with passion but must learn to temper this with empathy. His sharp wit and ability to see through facades can be both a gift and a challenge, as he often finds himself in verbal battles that mirror his internal quest for self-expression.

Venus in Aries (In Detriment) @ 3 Degrees (Gemini Degree)

Sextile Neptune

Venus in Aries is passionate, impulsive, and magnetic, making him someone who easily draws others in with his fiery charisma. However, the Gemini degree adds a layer of complexity, hinting at a need for intellectual stimulation and a restless heart that can make him seem elusive. The sextile to Neptune in the sign of Aquarius lends a dreamy, idealistic quality to his love life, as if he is constantly searching for a connection that feels both inspiring and transformative. Yet, this idealism can lead to disillusionment when reality doesn’t match his vision. He thrives on the excitement of love and connection but must learn to ground his expectations to build relationships that endure. His journey in love is one of balancing his need for independence with his deep desire for partnership. Something I believe he never found.

Mars in Taurus (In Detriment) @ 17 Degrees (Leo & Fame Degree)

Sextile Jupiter, Conjunct Fixed Star Rucha

Mars in Taurus shows someone steady and methodical, someone who doesn’t act rashly but with an unwavering focus on his goals. The Leo degree suggests a deep desire to be seen and remembered, an ambition that drives him to achieve, no matter the cost. The sextile to Jupiter at a Scorpio degree — 20, intensifies this energy, giving him a strategic mind and the ability to harness his emotions to fuel his success. Yet, this degree carries a shadow. His drive for justice can turn into a thirst for revenge when he feels wronged, as if he cannot rest until he has evened the scales. The conjunction with the fixed star Rucha amplifies his potential for success but also warns of the consequences of unchecked ambition. He is someone whose actions could have lead to great triumph or significant fallout, depending on how he channeled his immense energy. Very curious where this will lead him.

Mercury Retrograde Is Turning Up the Heat

From November 25 to December 15, Mercury is RETROGRADE in the sign of Sagittarius, promising a holiday season riddled with frustration and chaos. Sagittarius, the sign of travel, exploration, and big ideas, doesn’t mix well with Mercury’s backward spin. Holiday plans are likely to go off the rails, expect delayed or canceled flights, lost luggage, traffic jams, and travel mishaps that make you wonder why you even tried. 

Family gatherings? Sagittarius’s blunt, truth-telling energy could lead to arguments, hurt feelings, or someone accidentally spilling a secret that wasn’t meant to come out. Miscommunications will be rampant, so don’t be surprised if holiday invites get lost, schedules overlap, or you end up in the wrong place at the wrong time. On a global scale, this retrograde could disrupt diplomacy, spark international tensions, and create headline-worthy public missteps or scandals.

This isn’t the kind of retrograde that encourages calm reflection, it’s a cosmic warning to expect the unexpected and tread carefully. Double-check your plans, keep receipts, and avoid making big commitments unless you enjoy watching things fall apart. Patience will feel like a cruel joke, but it’s your best chance at surviving this holiday retrograde without a meltdown. Buckle up, and grab a martini, it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Sending you all my love and blessings,

Ash (@AstroA3h via Instagram & TikTok)

How Pluto Entering Aquarius Will Shape the Next Two Decades

Hold onto your hats, because the cosmos just handed us a front-row ticket to the most exhilarating and unsettling ride of the century. Pluto, the planet of transformation, power, and those deep, dark truths we’d rather shove under the rug, is strutting into Aquarius, the sign of innovation, rebellion, and humanity’s collective future. This isn’t just a cosmic shuffle. It’s a full-blown revolution that will flip the script on every corner of life as we know it. We’re talking society, technology, relationships, and yes, your personal universe. This not your average astrological transit.

Pluto doesn’t mess around. This is the planet of the phoenix, meaning if something isn’t working, it’s about to burn down to ashes. But don’t panic. Aquarius isn’t here to destroy for the sake of destruction. This air sign is the visionary genius, the tech whiz, the humanitarian. Together, they’re rewriting the rules of the game. Think of it like a power wash for your life and our world, a little messy at first, but ultimately freeing. For the next 19 years, expect seismic shifts in how we connect as a species. Aquarius rules technology and social systems, so the digital landscape will explode with changes. In terms of astrology predictions, AI won’t just be a cool tool; it’s going to reshape the job market, education, and even how we understand what it means to be human. If you’ve been clinging to outdated ways of working or communicating, Pluto is here to snap you out of it. The advice? Embrace the new. Learn, adapt, grow. That app you’re too stubborn to download could end up being the key to your next career move.

Power structures are about to collapse. Pluto in Aquarius doesn’t tolerate inequality, corruption, or anything that reeks of the old guard clinging to control. Governments, corporations, and even social hierarchies are in for a rude awakening. On a personal level, ask yourself where you’ve been giving your power away. Is it to a boss who doesn’t value you? A partner who keeps you small? A habit that numbs your potential? Pluto is here to tear those chains apart. But it’s on you to step into the freedom that follows. Of course, there’s a shadow side. Aquarius can be cold, detached, even ruthless in its pursuit of the greater good. Be wary of losing yourself in groupthink or tech dependency. Just because the world is speeding up doesn’t mean you have to lose touch with your own humanity. Make time for real conversations, face-to-face connections, and grounding rituals. This isn’t just a suggestion.

It’s a survival tool for navigating the chaos.

And let’s talk relationships. Traditional bonds might feel stifling under this influence. Aquarius loves independence and freedom, so if you’re in a situation that feels too confining, it’s time to shake things up. This doesn’t mean running for the hills every time someone asks for commitment. But it does mean being honest about what you need to thrive. Maybe that’s more space, or maybe it’s a complete reimagining of what love looks like for you. Just know this: Pluto doesn’t do surface-level. Any connection that’s shallow, fake, or rooted in outdated ideals is going to crumble. And that’s a good thing. This is also a time to dream big, no, bigger. Aquarius is the sign of invention and radical ideas. If you’ve been sitting on a creative project, a business idea, or a vision for your future, Pluto is giving you a cosmic green light. But there’s a catch. You can’t just dream it; you have to build it. Aquarius is innovative, yes, but it’s also fiercely logical. It’s about using your genius to create something real. So, roll up your sleeves. Get to work. You have a 19-year runway to make something extraordinary.

But remember, transformation isn’t a one-and-done event. Pluto moves slowly, digging deep into the cracks we don’t want to see. There will be moments when it feels too intense, too overwhelming. That’s when you lean into the Aquarian gift of vision. What kind of future do you want to build? What kind of person do you want to become? Keep your eyes on the horizon, even when the ground shakes beneath your feet. Pluto in Aquarius isn’t just a transit. It’s a call to action. It’s a demand to evolve. The world is changing, fast. And the question isn’t whether you’ll adapt. It’s whether you’ll rise to meet the opportunity. The universe believes you can. Now it’s your turn to believe it too.

Sending you all my love and blessings,

Mars Enters Leo ✨

Mars entered Leo on November 3, 2024 setting the stage for a dramatic journey that’s going to feel like we’re all living out our own Overboard moment — one of my favorite movies. Have you seen it? Just like Joanna, Goldie Hawn’s unforgettable character, we’re about to get stripped of our comfort zones, thrown into an emotional vortex, 💔 and challenged to find who we really are beneath the glitter and bravado. 

In Leo, Mars wants us to be bold, strong, and fearless, our inner Joanna on that yacht, perfectly in control. But come January, when Mars retrogrades back into Cancer, we’re plunged into unfamiliar waters, 🌊 forced to confront the vulnerable parts of ourselves we’ve tried to hide. We may feel lost or exhausted, like Joanna when she faces amnesia and finds her self scrubbing floors while wondering who she even is anymore. 

But if the character Joanna taught us anything, it’s that sometimes losing the life we think we need is the only way to find the life we truly want. By February, when Mars turns direct, we’ll emerge with a new understanding of ourselves. Not just the shiny, confident parts, but the raw, resilient spirit that’s always been there. So hold on tight, because this journey isn’t about staying in control; it’s about uncovering the depths of who we are when we LET GO! 🥹🥹🥹

Let’s explore how this Mars-in-Leo-and-Cancer transit might affect you based on the house Mars is and will be transiting.

1st House (Self, Identity, Physical Body)

Mars in Leo brings a surge in confidence, pushing you to change your look or assert your goals boldly. You may start a fitness routine or reinvent your style. Retrograde in Cancer, however, could bring self-doubt or fatigue, prompting you to reflect on your identity and values. By April, you’ll emerge with a refined self-image, grounded in authenticity, feeling stronger and more self-assured in how you present yourself to the world.

2nd House (Finances, Values, Self-Worth)

Mars in Leo energizes your drive for financial growth, encouraging you to make bold investments or explore new income sources. This might lead to a purchase or decision that symbolizes your values. During retrograde in Cancer, financial setbacks or expenses may surface, prompting a reevaluation of your spending habits. By April, you’ll feel more financially stable, with a clear understanding of your priorities and an improved approach to self-worth.

3rd House (Communication, Learning, Siblings)

Mars in Leo will boost your communication style, making you more expressive and confident. You might start a blog, initiate a new learning project, or take on sibling matters actively. Retrograde in Cancer, however, could lead to misunderstandings or introspection on how you connect with others. By April, you’ll find your voice stronger and clearer, enhancing your relationships with siblings, friends, and your approach to learning or local matters.

4th House (Home, Family, Roots)

Mars in Leo energizes your home life, sparking a desire to make changes in your living space or tackle family issues. You may consider moving, redecorating, or taking a more active role within family dynamics. Retrograde in Cancer might bring old family issues to light, prompting deep reflection on past connections. By April, you’ll establish a more harmonious and secure home, ready to embrace your roots and nurture your personal sanctuary.

5th House (Creativity, Romance, Pleasure)

Mars in Leo lights up your creative and romantic life, encouraging bold moves in love or passion projects. You might take a risk on a new romance or dive into an artistic venture.

By April, you’ll have clarity on what truly fulfills you, ready to focus on relationships and creative pursuits that offer lasting satisfaction.

6th House (Health, Work, Daily Routines)

Mars in Leo motivates you to take charge of your health and work routines, perhaps starting a fitness plan or tackling professional goals with vigor.

By April, you’ll have established a balanced routine that supports both your productivity and well-being, allowing you to achieve goals sustainably without burnout.

7th House (Relationships, Partnerships)

Mars in Leo intensifies your partnerships, inspiring bold actions in relationships and a desire to set clear boundaries. You may feel drawn to confront unresolved issues or clarify expectations.

By April, you’ll have gained insights into what you need from relationships, ready to invest in bonds that support both passion and stability.

8th House (Intimacy, Transformation, Shared Resources)

Mars in Leo drives deep transformations in intimacy and shared resources, prompting you to set boundaries in financial partnerships or open up emotionally. Retrograde in Cancer may bring up trust issues, delays in shared finances, or fears related to vulnerability. By April, you’ll have achieved a stronger understanding of how to navigate intimacy and shared resources, feeling more empowered and secure in both financial and emotional matters.

9th House (Adventure, Higher Learning, Beliefs)

Mars in Leo pushes you toward adventure, encouraging travel, higher learning, or a philosophical shift. You may feel a strong urge to expand your horizons through new experiences or studies. Retrograde in Cancer, however, could delay plans or bring doubts about your direction, making you question your beliefs. By April, you’ll have a clearer vision for your future, ready to embrace new goals and experiences that truly resonate with your values.

10th House (Career, Reputation, Goals)

Mars in Leo energizes your career, motivating you to pursue new responsibilities or leadership roles. You may find yourself tackling big projects or gaining recognition. Retrograde in Cancer could bring professional setbacks or make you question long-term goals, encouraging a reassessment of your career path. By April, you’ll have refined your vision for success, ready to pursue goals that align with your purpose and bring true fulfillment.

11th House (Friendships, Community, Future Goals)

Mars in Leo boosts your social life, inspiring you to take an active role in community projects or future goals. You may feel driven to expand your network or initiate group ventures. Retrograde in Cancer might bring back old friends or prompt a re-evaluation of your social connections. By April, you’ll have clarity on who supports your growth, ready to invest in friendships and group endeavors that resonate with your authentic self.

12th House (Spirituality, Subconscious, Hidden Matters)

Mars in Leo stirs your inner world, pushing you to confront hidden fears or embark on a spiritual journey. You may feel drawn to self-reflection, meditation, or therapeutic practices. Retrograde in Cancer could bring up unresolved emotions or past wounds, prompting a period of introspection. By April, you’ll feel a renewed sense of inner peace, having released old baggage and gained a deeper understanding of your spiritual path.

Erik Menendez & His Big Three

Sagittarius Sun in the 4th House @ 5 Degrees (Leo & Fame Degree)

The Sun represents the core of our identity, our sense of self, and our life’s purpose. In Sagittarius, Erik’s Sun placement reveals a strong need for freedom, truth, and exploration. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of expansion, meaning that Erik would have had an innate desire to seek new experiences, learn about the world, and push boundaries. However, his Sun falls in the 4th House, the house of family, home, and emotional foundations. This placement indicates that Erik’s personal identity was deeply tied to his family and upbringing. Sagittarius energy, which craves freedom and independence, is at odds with the 4th House’s focus on roots and emotional security, suggesting an internal conflict between wanting to break free from family expectations and being bound to them.

Adding in 5 degrees to the mix, this placement takes on an even more dramatic tone. The Leo degree is associated with fame, leadership, and public recognition, but fame that often comes with a price. Erik’s life, tied so deeply to his family, was thrust into the public eye, but the fame came in the form of a high-profile trial and infamy rather than personal achievement. The Leo energy enhances the importance of ego and the need to be seen, and in Erik’s case, his family issues became a matter of public spectacle, with his identity forever linked to the notoriety of his family drama. This placement suggests a life in which his personal self was never fully separate from the public’s view of his family, reinforcing the theme of fame tied to painful consequences.

Scorpio Moon in the 3rd House @ 26 Degrees (Taurus Degree)

The Moon governs our emotional world, instincts, and how we seek comfort. With the Moon in Scorpio, Erik’s emotional landscape would have been intense, secretive, and full of deep psychological complexity. Scorpio is a sign that delves into the undercurrents of life—power, control, transformation, and emotional extremes. Scorpio Moons are known to feel things deeply, often experiencing emotions like betrayal, fear, and obsession. Erik likely internalized his emotions, feeling an intense need to guard his vulnerabilities. Scorpio is also ruled by Pluto, the planet of transformation and rebirth, which indicates that Erik’s emotional experiences would have often been life-altering or tied to significant crises. Scorpio Moons also have a tendency to hold onto emotional wounds, and in Erik’s case, this would have manifested as a deep-seated resentment and pain connected to his family.

In the 3rd House, which rules communication, siblings, and immediate environment, Erik’s Moon placement suggests that these intense emotional experiences were tied to his interactions with his family—particularly his brother, Lyle, and the communication within the household and even now in prison. This is a placement of emotional power struggles, especially between siblings or close family members, where conversations and relationships are colored by secrecy, manipulation, and control. The Taurus degree (26 degrees) adds an additional layer to this. Taurus is associated with stability, material wealth, and comfort. While Scorpio is emotionally turbulent, Taurus craves peace and security. This degree suggests that Erik’s emotional turmoil was compounded by the material abundance he was surrounded by, a luxurious yet emotionally toxic environment. It indicates that while Erik lived in comfort and wealth, his emotional life was anything but secure. He may have felt trapped by the wealth that surrounded him, further intensifying his feelings of powerlessness and resentment toward his family. I believe this could be why he feels so free in prison. Wealth is a burden for Erik.

Virgo Ascendant @ 4 Degrees (Cancer Degree)

The Ascendant, or rising sign, represents how we approach life, how others perceive us, and the persona we project to the world. With Virgo Ascendant, Erik’s outward personality would have been seen as analytical, detail-oriented, and somewhat reserved. Virgo risings are often critical of themselves and others, always striving for perfection. They tend to be practical and controlled, preferring to focus on details and order. This placement suggests that Erik might have appeared composed, responsible, and even meticulous in how he managed his life and interactions, especially within his family. However, Virgo risings can also be highly self-critical, and this often manifests as internal pressure to meet impossible standards, especially in a family dynamic where expectations are high.

At 4 degrees, Erik’s Ascendant is linked to Cancer energy, which adds an emotional, family-oriented layer to his Virgo rising. Cancer is ruled by the Moon and governs family, maternal influences, and emotional security. This degree suggests that Erik’s outward demeanor and his approach to life were profoundly shaped by his relationship with his family, especially his mother. 4 degrees emphasizes emotional nurturing (or lack thereof), and in most cases, this degree points to deep "mommy issues" and unresolved emotional wounds connected to maternal care. Erik’s Virgo rising would have made him appear rational and controlled on the outside, but the Cancer influence shows that underneath this exterior, there were deep emotional scars and unmet emotional needs, particularly tied to his mom, Kitty.

North Node Through the Houses

The North Node is not just about this life. It’s the unfinished business of your soul, the echoes of past lives that still hum beneath your everyday decisions. Think of it as the place where your soul keeps hitting repeat, lifetime after lifetime, until you get it right. The South Node can show us who we were in past lives, but the North Node shows us what we need to learn from that life. It demands that you evolve beyond the easy way out. It drags you into uncomfortable territory because that’s where the real growth happens.

Let’s get into what it means to have the North Node in each house.

With the North Node in the first house, your past lives were likely spent in the shadows, always focused on other people’s needs, emotions, and desires. You were the caretaker, the mediator, the one who made sure everyone else was happy and safe while you quietly faded into the background. You probably sacrificed your own identity for the sake of peace or belonging. But in this life, the universe is flipping the script and telling you to stop hiding. This is the lifetime where you must step fully into your own power and claim yourself. It’s not selfish; it’s essential. You are being called to develop a stronger sense of who you are outside of relationships, outside of what others expect from you. This might feel uncomfortable at first because you’ve been conditioned across lifetimes to put others first. But now, the universe wants you to put yourself at the center of your life. There will be moments where you’ll feel like you’re abandoning the old you, but that’s exactly what your soul needs. This time around, it’s about self-discovery, standing tall in your individuality, and letting go of the need for validation from others. Trust that this journey is about finding your truth, not living someone else’s.

When the North Node is in the second house, you are here to rewrite your relationship with worth and abundance. In your past lives, you likely struggled with self-worth. Maybe you were in poverty or servitude, or perhaps you lived lives where wealth or security felt out of reach. You learned to believe that you weren’t enough, that you had to prove your value through what you could do for others. In this life, the universe is pushing you to confront those old stories and realize that your worth is not tied to how much you give or how little you need. You are meant to feel deserving of wealth, stability, and comfort. This is a lifetime where you are here to build something lasting, something that supports you rather than drains you. You may find yourself facing challenges around money or possessions, but these are not meant to punish you. Instead, they’re here to force you to claim your right to abundance. This isn’t just about money; it’s about recognizing your own intrinsic value. You’ll learn that you no longer need to live in scarcity, and that accepting what you’re worth is part of your soul’s evolution.

If your North Node is in the third house, this lifetime is all about finding and expressing your voice. In your past lives, you may have lived in silence, either by choice or circumstance. Maybe you were restricted by the rules of society, family, or culture, or perhaps you were the one who chose to stay quiet to avoid conflict or punishment. You likely felt safer keeping your thoughts and ideas to yourself, never really speaking out or asserting your truth. But now, the universe is pushing you to break that silence. In this life, you are here to communicate, to learn, to explore new ideas, and to speak up. You’ll feel an urge to share your thoughts, even when it feels risky or uncomfortable. Your soul needs to experience the power of words, of ideas, of being heard. There may be times where you second-guess yourself or fear rejection, but this is where your soul’s growth lies. You are not here to keep your truth hidden. Whether through writing, teaching, or simply engaging in deeper conversations, you’re being called to expand your mind and share your wisdom. This is a lifetime where communication is key, not just for personal growth but for connecting with others in a way that transforms both you and them.

With the North Node in your fourth house, your past lives were spent chasing external success, status, and recognition. Maybe you were someone who lived for applause or defined yourself by your career. You were so focused on outward achievements that you neglected the emotional and spiritual foundation within. This time around, the universe says, “Enough.” Now, it’s not about what you accomplish on the outside, but how you nurture your roots on the inside. You’re being asked to create a real sense of home — within yourself and maybe even with family. This is about emotional vulnerability, learning to open up and embrace softness, something you might find incredibly challenging if you’ve been wired to believe that only external success matters. You’re being called to redefine success, not by titles or money, but by how connected you feel to your inner world. This will feel disorienting because in past lives, you thrived on that outer recognition. But in this lifetime, your soul’s peace comes from grounding and creating emotional safety.

For those with the North Node in the fifth house, your past lives were all about service to others. Maybe you were a healer, a caretaker, or even someone deeply immersed in community work. While that was noble, it also left you with a habit of putting your own joy and creativity on the back burner. This lifetime is a whole different story. The universe is pushing you toward pleasure, toward self-expression, toward reclaiming your own creativity without feeling guilty about it. You are meant to dive headfirst into what lights you up — art, romance, joy, whatever sets your soul on fire. You’ve spent lifetimes being selfless, but this time it’s about embracing the beauty of being self-full. This won’t be easy because you’re used to measuring your worth by how much you give to others, but now it’s time to give to yourself. You are here to learn how to play again, to fall in love with life and not apologize for it.

When the North Node falls in your sixth house, in past lives you may have been a dreamer, lost in spiritual or creative pursuits, escaping the mundane aspects of life. You were the mystic, the artist, or even the one who wandered without structure. But in this lifetime, the universe is pulling you down to earth. You are here to master the art of daily routine, service, and responsibility. This time, it’s not about escaping into the clouds; it’s about rolling up your sleeves and tending to the details of life. This placement demands you find meaning in the small things — in work, in health, in service to others. You are being asked to take what might seem like “boring” tasks and transform them into something meaningful. Structure will be your friend, even if you resist it at first. You’re learning that discipline isn’t the enemy of creativity but its container. This is about grounding yourself, finding your place in the world by being of real, tangible service.

If your North Node is in the seventh house, this lifetime is all about relationships. In past lives, you were fiercely independent, possibly even a bit of a loner. You didn’t rely on anyone because you thought you had to do it all yourself, and maybe you even took pride in that. But now, the universe is pushing you to embrace partnership. You’re here to learn the beauty of compromise, to lean on others, and to create harmony in your one-on-one connections. This is not about losing yourself in relationships but learning that true growth comes from opening your heart to another. You’ll feel pulled to develop deep, committed partnerships, whether in love or business, and it will challenge your past life instincts to go it alone. It might feel uncomfortable, even scary, to trust others with your heart and your journey, but this is where your soul needs to grow. You’re learning that true strength lies not in isolation, but in collaboration and connection.

With the North Node in the eighth house, your past lives were likely lived in the comfort of the material world. You were someone who played it safe, who stayed on the surface of things, possibly attached to money, possessions, or status. But this time around, the universe is saying, “Dive deep.” This placement is all about transformation, letting go, and stepping into the unknown. You are meant to confront your fears, whether they are about intimacy, power, or even death itself. The eighth house demands that you shed old skins, walk through the fire of transformation, and come out on the other side reborn. This could feel terrifying because, in past lives, you avoided the dark, the intense, the things that couldn’t be controlled. But now, your soul is hungry for depth. You’ll be drawn to explore the mysteries of life, to face your shadows, and to embrace the power that comes from letting go of what no longer serves you. It’s time to step out of the comfort zone of material security and into the transformative power of your inner world.

When the North Node is in the ninth house, in past lives, you were all about the details. Maybe you were the scholar, the critic, or someone who clung tightly to rules and facts. But this time, the universe is calling you to go beyond the known. You’re here to expand your mind, your belief systems, and your horizons. This lifetime is about embracing adventure, travel, and higher learning. It’s about stepping out of the rigidity of what you know and diving into the vastness of what you don’t know. You might feel an urge to explore different cultures, philosophies, or spiritual practices. The ninth house pushes you to stop thinking so small and start embracing the bigger picture. It’s time to leave behind the safety of the familiar and embark on a journey of self-discovery that’s expansive and, yes, a little wild. Your soul craves adventure, and this lifetime is where you’ll find it.

If the North Node lands in your tenth house, in past lives you were likely focused on home and family, living a life that was more private, more intimate. You were the one who kept things safe and cozy, avoiding the spotlight. But now, the universe is pushing you to step out into the world and claim your public role. This lifetime is about ambition, about achieving something that impacts the world at large. You’re here to build a legacy, to step into positions of leadership or authority, and to make your mark. This won’t feel comfortable because your past lives were all about staying behind the scenes. But now, the universe is asking you to stand tall, to take on responsibility, and to be seen. This is where your soul needs to grow — in the pursuit of a greater purpose beyond the confines of home.

In the eleventh house, your North Node journey is about community and collective progress. In past lives, you may have focused on your personal desires or immediate circle, maybe even isolating yourself from broader social issues. But now, the universe is calling you to engage with the world, to step out of the small bubble of personal goals and embrace the power of the collective. You are here to learn how to work within groups, to contribute to causes greater than yourself, and to push humanity forward. This lifetime is about finding your place in society, whether that’s through activism, innovation, or simply connecting with people who share your vision. You’re meant to move from self-centered pursuits to community-focused contributions. This might feel uncomfortable because you’re stepping into a larger role, but this is where you will find your true impact.

Finally, with the North Node in the twelfth house, you’ve spent past lives wrapped up in the material world, focused on tangible results, daily routines, and the practical side of life. But now, the universe is guiding you toward the spiritual, the unseen, and the mystical. You are here to learn the art of surrender, to trust in something greater than yourself, and to dive deep into the subconscious mind. This lifetime is about letting go of control, embracing your intuition, and exploring the realms beyond the physical world. You’ll feel drawn to meditation, spiritual practices, or even isolation at times as you seek to understand the deeper truths of existence. This can feel disorienting if you’re used to structure and predictability, but your soul is craving connection with the divine, the mysteries of life, and the wisdom that comes from stillness and surrender. This is the lifetime where you learn to trust the flow of the universe and let go of the need to have all the answers.

North Node Through the Signs

When we talk about the North Node, we're diving into the part of your chart that is all about your soul's growth, what you're meant to step into in this lifetime. It’s the compass pointing toward what you need to learn, but it doesn't come easy. You’ll find that the North Node's energy will push you to uncomfortable, often painful places where you'll have no choice but to grow. It’s not a gentle nudge. It’s more like being shoved toward the edge of a cliff with no safety net, and the landing? Well, that's up to you.

Let’s get into what it means to have the North Node in each sign and, trust me, you’ll want to brace yourself. There’s beauty in the struggle, but the struggle is real.

Aries North Node demands that you stop depending on others to define you and start stepping into your own power. The dark side? It’s not just about becoming independent; it’s about confronting your own fear of being alone. There will be moments when you feel abandoned, unsupported, and left to fend for yourself. That’s the whole point. You’re learning that your strength comes from within, but not without first feeling the sting of isolation. Relationships might shatter because you’ll realize they’ve been built on co-dependence. And here’s the kicker—if you keep clinging to others to save you, you’ll find yourself betrayed by the very people you rely on.

With the Taurus North Node, you’re being pulled toward stability and security, but here's where it gets tricky. The shadow side of this placement is greed, laziness, and clinging to comfort at all costs. You might obsess over material possessions, convinced they’ll bring you the peace you’re so desperate for. But the universe will rip them away from you if you refuse to let go. If you chase security without spiritual growth, you’ll end up empty and dissatisfied, no matter how much you accumulate. You’ll have to face that ugly part of yourself that wants to hoard resources and shut out the world. Isolation comes easily, but it’s destructive for you.

A Gemini North Node is here to teach you how to communicate, but the dark side shows up when you lose yourself in gossip, manipulation, and endless distractions. Instead of diving into meaningful conversations, you might scatter your energy, talking just to talk without ever getting to the heart of anything. You could become a know-it-all, someone who collects surface-level information but never truly understands anything. The worst part? You might use your words as weapons, cutting people down with half-truths or gossiping to avoid your own insecurities. If you refuse to grow intellectually and spiritually, you’ll drown in a sea of triviality, never truly connecting with others on a real level.

Cancer North Node wants you to nurture and be nurtured, but the shadow side is suffocating emotional dependence. You could fall into the trap of mothering others to the point of control, or, worse, becoming so needy for validation that you drain the people around you. You may end up emotionally manipulative, clinging to relationships or situations long after they’ve served their purpose. Your biggest fear is rejection, and it will rear its head every time someone steps away from your care or doesn’t need you anymore. If you don’t learn to balance your emotions and stand on your own two feet, you risk becoming emotionally crippled, relying on others to define your worth.

For those with a Leo North Node, you are meant to shine, but the shadow side here is narcissism, arrogance, and ego-driven ambition. The universe will tempt you with fame, power, and recognition, but if you chase these things for the wrong reasons, you’ll end up in a lonely spotlight, surrounded by people who only care about your image. The dark side of this placement can turn you into someone who constantly needs validation, someone who sacrifices authenticity just to keep the applause coming. And when the applause fades? You’ll find yourself feeling hollow, desperate for attention in all the wrong places. Pride will be your downfall if you don’t learn to create from the heart.

With a Virgo North Node, your path is about service and practicality, but the dark side here is pure perfectionism. You may get so caught up in trying to control every detail that you become critical, judgmental, and downright impossible to please. Your life could become a checklist of tasks, accomplishments, and standards that no one—not even you—can ever meet. If you fall into this trap, you’ll miss out on the joy of simply being, constantly striving for a perfection that doesn’t exist. The danger is in becoming obsessive, cold, and detached from the heart of things. If you don’t learn to let go of control, you’ll suffocate yourself and everyone around you with impossible expectations.

Libra North Node is here to teach you about balance and relationships, but the shadow side is codependency and indecisiveness. You might fall into the trap of people-pleasing, constantly sacrificing your own needs to keep the peace. If you do, you’ll end up resenting the very people you’re trying to please, feeling invisible and unappreciated. Worse, you may become so obsessed with harmony that you lose yourself entirely, never standing up for what you truly want. The universe will push you into uncomfortable situations where you’ll have to make hard choices, and if you avoid them, you’ll stagnate. The dark path for you is becoming a doormat, always waiting for someone else to take the lead.

A Scorpio North Node is no joke. This is about transformation, but the dark side is obsession, control, and power struggles. You might become consumed by jealousy, paranoia, or the need to dominate others emotionally and spiritually. This placement can drag you into the depths of your psyche, making you face your darkest fears, but if you resist, you’ll get stuck in toxic patterns. You might find yourself drawn to situations that force you to confront betrayal, loss, or manipulation—because that’s how Scorpio energy works. It’s not gentle. If you refuse to let go of control, the universe will rip it away from you, leaving you with nothing but the ashes of what you were too afraid to release.

If you have a Sagittarius North Node, you’re here to explore freedom and truth, but the dark side is arrogance, dogma, and irresponsibility. You could become so obsessed with your own version of the truth that you refuse to see anyone else’s perspective. The universe will force you to confront your own hypocrisy if you preach one thing and live another. You might also run from responsibility, constantly chasing the next adventure without ever building anything lasting. If you refuse to commit to something deeper than your own desires, you’ll find yourself spiritually lost, wandering aimlessly without a true sense of purpose. The danger here is superficiality—pretending to seek truth but never going deeper than the surface.

For the Capricorn North Node, this lifetime is about building something real, but the shadow side is ruthless ambition and emotional detachment. You could become so obsessed with success and control that you shut off your emotions, turning cold and unapproachable. Relationships may take a backseat to your career, and while you climb the ladder, you may find yourself at the top—and alone. The dark side of this placement is a relentless pursuit of power that leaves you disconnected from your humanity. You’ll need to learn that true success isn’t just about achievements; it’s about balancing ambition with care. If you don’t, the universe will show you just how lonely a mountain peak can be.

With an Aquarius North Node, your path is toward innovation and community, but the dark side is rebellion without a cause, isolation, and a detachment from emotion. You might find yourself resisting authority just for the sake of it, pushing people away because you’re afraid of losing your individuality. The shadow side of this placement can turn you into someone who values ideals over people, someone who is so focused on the collective that you forget the human element. If you isolate yourself or become too rigid in your views, you’ll miss out on the deep, personal connections your soul craves. The universe will remind you that true revolution starts with the heart, not just the mind.

Finally, the Pisces North Node is all about surrender, spirituality, and letting go of control, but the dark side here is escapism, addiction, and martyrdom. You might find yourself avoiding reality altogether, retreating into fantasies, substances, or unhealthy relationships to escape the harshness of life. The universe will test you with situations that force you to face your own weaknesses, but if you run from them, you’ll get trapped in a cycle of self-destruction. The danger here is in losing yourself to the point where you no longer know where you end and the chaos begins. You’re here to learn trust, but if you don’t, you’ll end up drowning in your own illusions.

Asteroid Lucifer #1930 Through the Houses

Asteroid Lucifer in astrology 🪽 shines a light on where we are tempted to stand apart, where ego steps in, and how we wrestle with pride. It's a symbol of independence but also of isolation, where we choose to defy the norm, sometimes to our own detriment.

It’s not the devil sitting on your shoulder, whispering bad ideas, but more of an inner rebel challenging the status quo and, yes, sometimes taking a few shortcuts when we think no one’s looking. Where Lucifer lands in your natal chart gives you a clear picture of where you’re most likely to battle self-deception, stubborn pride, and the temptation to prioritize yourself at the cost of others.

When Lucifer lands in your first house, this is all about self-image. You might constantly feel the need to present yourself in the best possible light, no matter what. It’s a slippery slope between genuine confidence and ego, and with this placement, your challenge is knowing when you’re overdoing it. You’ll lie to yourself about who you are or want to be, convincing yourself that a perfectly crafted image is the only way to be accepted. But true power comes when you stop performing for others and embrace your real, messy self. You don’t need to stand on a pedestal to be noticed. Your individuality already speaks volumes.

In the second house, Lucifer tempts you to think that your worth is tied directly to material success and possessions. It can lead to a tunnel vision focused on wealth, security, and how much you can accumulate. The need to control your financial situation might lead you to take risks or shortcuts. You’ll be tempted to think money can solve your problems or that what you own defines your value. The truth here is that real security comes from self-respect and the ability to feel worthy regardless of what’s in your bank account.

Lucifer in the third house can make you feel like the smartest person in the room. You pride yourself on your intellect and communication skills. The problem arises when your pride gets in the way of listening to others or accepting that maybe you don’t know everything. Here, you’ll face temptations to bend the truth or manipulate information to fit your narrative. It’s important to use your voice for good and resist the urge to prove yourself constantly. You already have something valuable to say; you don’t need to embellish it.

In the fourth house, Lucifer brings up deep-rooted pride tied to family and home life. There’s a temptation to put on a façade of perfection here, hiding any messiness or dysfunction beneath the surface. You might take shortcuts in emotional matters, pretending things are fine when they’re not. There’s a fear of vulnerability, and you might lie to yourself about the state of your relationships. The key to growth is learning to be honest about your emotional needs and letting go of the idea that everything has to appear perfect. Real strength lies in showing up authentically, even in the messy moments.

Lucifer’s presence in the fifth house amplifies the temptation to seek attention and validation through creativity, romance, and self-expression. You want to be adored, and sometimes that leads to over-the-top behavior. There’s a risk of becoming so focused on how others see you that you lose sight of what you actually enjoy. This placement asks you to stop performing for an audience and to create or love for the sake of joy, not for applause. If you can get past the need for validation, this is where you can truly shine and let your natural gifts flourish.

In the sixth house, there’s a temptation to control every aspect of your daily life, health, and work. Lucifer here makes you feel like you need to be perfect, productive, and constantly improving. You’ll lie to yourself about your limits, pushing yourself to the point of burnout. The lesson here is to let go of the need to be the best at everything and to realize that self-worth isn’t tied to how much you can do. Learning to rest, set boundaries, and take care of your well-being is where your real power lies.

With Lucifer in the seventh house, relationships become the battleground for pride and ego. There’s a tendency to want to be right or to put your needs ahead of your partner’s, even if it’s subtle. You might be tempted to control or manipulate situations to get what you want, thinking that’s the only way to maintain balance. The challenge is learning to see your relationships as partnerships where both people are equal. It’s not about winning or losing but about learning to give and receive love without power struggles.

Lucifer in the eighth house tempts you to hide your vulnerabilities at all costs. This is the house of deep transformation, intimacy, and shared resources, but pride makes you want to keep control. There’s a fear of letting others in, of showing your flaws, so you might keep secrets or try to maintain power through manipulation. The path to healing here is through honest, deep connections. Real transformation happens when you stop trying to control the process and allow yourself to be seen in all your complexity.

In the ninth house, Lucifer makes you feel like you have all the answers when it comes to your beliefs, philosophies, or education. You might find yourself looking down on others who don’t share your worldview or feel tempted to cut corners in your pursuit of knowledge. There’s a desire to be seen as wise or enlightened, but this can lead to arrogance. The lesson here is to stay open to learning and evolving. True wisdom comes from knowing that there’s always more to discover.

Lucifer in the tenth house drives you to want recognition and success at any cost. Your pride is tied to your career and public image, and you might be tempted to take shortcuts to get to the top. There’s a risk of becoming so focused on your goals that you lose sight of your integrity. The challenge here is to build something lasting, based on your true values, rather than chasing accolades or status. Real success comes when you pursue what’s meaningful to you, not what looks impressive to others.

In the eleventh house, Lucifer brings up issues around fitting in with groups and communities. You might feel the temptation to rebel just for the sake of standing out, or you might manipulate situations to gain popularity. The key here is to stay true to yourself without needing to go against the grain just for attention. Find your tribe, but don’t let the need for acceptance or admiration dictate your choices. Your unique perspective has value; you don’t need to prove it by constantly being the outsider.

Finally, Lucifer in the twelfth house speaks to hidden pride, where you might deceive yourself about your deeper motivations. This is the house of the subconscious, and Lucifer here can make it easy to avoid facing your shadows. You’ll be tempted to suppress uncomfortable emotions or take the easy way out when dealing with your inner world. The lesson is to confront your fears and insecurities head-on. Real growth comes when you stop hiding from yourself and embrace the parts of you that you’d rather keep in the dark.

Where is the Asteroid Lucifer in your Natal (Birth) Chart? 🖤

Lilith Through the Signs ✨

Let’s talk about Lilith, because she’s that dark, seductive part of your chart that you’re probably a little afraid to look at, but trust me—you need to. In astrology, Lilith shows us the hidden, raw parts of our psyche, the things we suppress or even deny. She’s our wild side, our deepest desires, and sometimes, our untapped rage. Wherever Lilith is in your chart, she brings out this primal energy that cannot be tamed. And let me tell you, she doesn't play nice. You’re going to feel it. If you don’t confront her, she’ll push until you have no choice. 

If Lilith is in Aries, then honey, you’re all about raw, impulsive energy. Lilith in Aries doesn’t ask permission. You fight for independence at any cost, and sometimes, that can mean bulldozing through life without thinking about the consequences. People might call you selfish, but really, you’re just unapologetically you. You struggle with authority and anyone telling you what to do. In relationships, this placement is about the constant power struggle. You want freedom, but you also crave someone who can handle your intensity. Here’s the thing: you have to learn how to channel that fire without burning everything down. Maybe take up martial arts or something that lets you express your aggression in a healthy way.

With Lilith in Taurus, you are drawn to the pleasures of life, the sensual side of things. It’s about indulging—whether that’s in food, sex, or luxury. But here’s the shadow side: you can become possessive, even obsessive, about holding onto what you have. You want security so badly that you might cling to things (and people) that are no longer good for you. This placement craves comfort, but you can get stuck in your comfort zone, unwilling to let go even when it’s time. In your love life, you’ll likely attract relationships that push you to confront your fear of losing what you hold dear. Learn to trust that true security comes from within. You don’t need to hoard it; it’s already yours.

Lilith in Gemini? Oh boy, you are a master of words, and you know exactly how to twist them to get what you want. But watch out, because this placement can make you feel like you’re always wearing a mask. You can say all the right things, but inside, there’s a part of you that feels unseen and unheard. You’ll attract people who are intrigued by your mind, but they might not get the real you. In relationships, it’s all about mental connection, but sometimes you use communication as a weapon. You can be manipulative when you want to be, and if you’re not careful, you’ll push people away with your mind games. The key here? Be honest. Be vulnerable. You’re smart enough to know when someone isn’t on your level, but that doesn’t mean you have to hide behind cleverness.

With Lilith in Cancer, you’re dealing with deep emotional wounds. There’s a part of you that craves nurturing but also resents it at the same time. You might have grown up feeling like you had to be the caretaker, even when you weren’t ready. And now? You have a hard time letting anyone take care of you. You build emotional walls, but inside, you’re yearning for someone to break them down. In relationships, you might sabotage things when they start to feel too safe, because deep down, you’re scared of being abandoned. Your healing comes when you stop looking for that motherly figure in other people and start giving yourself the care you need. You have to learn that vulnerability is not a weakness.

If Lilith is in Leo, girl, you’re the queen—and you know it. You want to be admired, adored, worshipped, but you also fear that you’re never enough. This is a placement where ego and insecurity collide. You want the spotlight, but you’re terrified of what people will see when they look too close. Relationships become about power. You want someone who puts you on a pedestal, but the second they don’t, you’re out. The challenge here is learning that your worth doesn’t depend on external validation. When you own your power without needing applause from the crowd, you’ll find that the right people are drawn to your light.

Lilith in Virgo brings a complicated relationship with control. You strive for perfection in everything, but the more you try to control, the more things slip through your fingers. You might have a tendency to obsess over the details—whether it’s your appearance, your work, or your relationships. But this perfectionism is exhausting. You attract situations where you’re forced to confront the idea that control is an illusion. The real work is in letting go. In love, you might feel like no one is ever good enough for you, or worse, that you’re never good enough. But the truth is, you don’t have to fix anyone, least of all yourself. Your healing comes from accepting the messiness of life.

Lilith in Libra? Oh, this is a tricky one because you want harmony and balance, but deep down, you might feel like you’re constantly at war with yourself. You attract people who reflect your shadow side, and it’s easy to lose yourself in relationships. You want to please others so badly that you forget your own needs, and then you resent them for it. This placement has to learn how to set boundaries and stop giving away power just to keep the peace. In love, you might find yourself drawn to partners who are controlling or manipulative, and it’s because you’re not owning your own power. Stand up for yourself. Relationships are meant to be equal, not a battleground.

If your Lilith is in Scorpio, honey, you’ve got intensity for days. This is one of the most powerful Lilith placements, but it also comes with deep emotional wounds around trust and betrayal. You crave deep, soul-shattering connections, but you’re also terrified of being vulnerable. In love, you attract relationships that push you to confront your darkest fears—jealousy, obsession, control. The challenge for you is to let go of the need to dominate. You’re not going to lose your power by being vulnerable. In fact, true power comes from letting others see the real you, scars and all. The key here is to trust that you won’t be destroyed by love. It’s transformative, not destructive.

Lilith in Sagittarius is about freedom—wild, uncontained freedom. You’re always looking for the next adventure, the next thrill, and you can’t stand to be tied down. But here’s the thing: running from commitment isn’t going to fill that void inside. You attract situations where you feel like your wings are being clipped, but it’s because you’re not allowing yourself to fully engage. You might avoid deep connections because you’re afraid they’ll hold you back. In relationships, you crave freedom, but you also want someone who understands your need for independence. Your journey is about finding a way to commit without feeling caged. Trust that you can have both stability and freedom.

If Lilith is in Capricorn, you’re all about power and control. You crave success, but deep down, you fear failure more than anything. You’ll push yourself to the brink just to prove you’re worthy, but this placement often comes with a deep sense of insecurity. You might feel like no matter how much you achieve, it’s never enough. In relationships, you attract people who challenge your need for control, and it forces you to confront the fact that true success isn’t about power—it’s about vulnerability. Learn to let go of the idea that you have to be the one in control all the time. It’s okay to let someone else take the lead. You’ll find that it makes you stronger, not weaker.

With Lilith in Aquarius, you’re the rebel. You don’t like being told what to do, and you’re always pushing against the grain. But this can also make you feel like an outsider, like you don’t belong. You attract relationships where you feel like you have to sacrifice your individuality, but deep down, you know that’s not the answer. Your challenge is to find a way to be in a relationship without losing yourself. Don’t be afraid to stand out. The world needs your unique vision. In love, you might push people away because you’re afraid of being controlled, but real freedom comes from allowing yourself to be fully seen.

Finally, Lilith in Pisces is a placement of deep emotional sensitivity. You feel everything, and sometimes, that can be overwhelming. You might have a tendency to escape through fantasy or avoidance because reality feels too harsh. But this placement also gives you incredible intuition. You attract relationships where you feel like you’re drowning in emotions, and it can be hard to find your footing. The key here is to set boundaries—emotional boundaries. You don’t have to take on other people’s pain as your own. Your healing comes when you learn to stay grounded in reality while still honoring your deeply spiritual side. Embrace your empathy, but don’t let it consume you.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck seen kissing, holding hands during brunch with kids amid divorce! 👀✨

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s on-again, off-again relationship has always been a whirlwind, and their recent public affection is no accident—astrologically, it’s deeply tied to a karmic lesson they can’t seem to escape. Their Venus-Saturn conjunction in Gemini at 18 degrees—a Virgo degree known for themes of addiction and self-sacrifice—screams unfinished business. This aspect indicates a relationship that isn’t just about love; it’s about the grind, the boundaries, the hard lessons, and the undeniable pull of fate. Saturn brings the weight of responsibility, while Venus yearns for connection and harmony. When these two energies clash in a sign as restless as Gemini, it creates a bond that’s as intoxicating as it is challenging.

For JLo and Ben, this isn’t just a romantic reunion; it’s a karmic tug-of-war between their need for love and the heavy responsibility that comes with it. Saturn’s influence over Venus can feel like a blessing and a curse—one minute you’re deeply connected, the next you’re cold, distant, or stuck in repetitive patterns. The addiction here isn’t just about substances or habits; it’s about being hooked on the high of love, the drama, the nostalgia of past moments, and the fear of letting go. Their relationship, marked by past breakups, rekindled flames, and public ups and downs, speaks to the Saturn struggle: the push and pull between building something lasting and the constant test of their commitment. This is a couple that thrives on the challenge, but they also risk losing themselves to the very obstacles that bring them together.

In your own relationships, if you’re feeling stuck in a cycle of old patterns or are attracted to partners who feel like projects rather than equals, this Venus-Saturn dynamic is asking you to wake up. Love isn’t just about attraction or nostalgia; it’s about building something solid without losing yourself in the process. Don’t get caught up in the fantasy of fixing someone or reliving the past. Learn from JLo and Ben: love should empower, not imprison. When Saturn’s involved, you’re not just dating—you’re building a life lesson. If it feels heavy, it’s because it is. Ask yourself if this weight is one worth carrying. Prioritize your boundaries, communicate openly, and if the relationship isn’t adding value to your life, be brave enough to put it down. This isn’t about giving up; it’s about knowing when to break free from what’s holding you back.

Blessings,

Ash ✨
