Hi beauties, I hope you are all faring well out there. I’ve been reflecting a LOT on how much the tides seem to be changing, as within so without style. Lots of churning and emergence happening. Wondering how y’all are holding up.

The podcast this week comes a bit early, as last week focused so much on the Taurus New Moon that I didn’t have time to get into some of the big astrology towards the end of this week.

Hence, a full episode diving into the VENUS-NEPTUNE conjunction in Aries! The first of our lifetime, offering us a moment to really feel into the newness of this phase + sign shift.

However, this is not the first conjunction we’ve had with Venus + Neptune in general; since the beginning of 2025, we’ve had a couple passes between the Lover + the Mystic, during Venus’ Retrograde cycle.

The first was during Imbolc (Feb 1+2) weekend, when the dream from the cosmic womb was planted within our own visioning centers. Think back to what was happening at this time for you; look at your journal or tarot spread from early February. This is a HUGE opportunity to check in with how that gestation process has been moving in you.

The second Venus-Neptune conjunction in Pisces was days before Neptune had officially entered Aries, the final bow on March 27th, 2025. This moment was a review of the dream, a further message as clarification of its importance. Perhaps a bit more information expounded. Again ~ check back on your journals as circular lifelines, an unfoldment of consciousness, a sacred spiral of Dreamtime into becoming a reality.

I really emphasize the ‘looking back at’ those dates, because it’s quite literally celestial field notes. And, because the moment we’re entering this Friday with our very first Venus/Neptune conjunction in ARIES, asks us to begin considering what action is required to make our dreams a living reality. It’s time to cocreate with the Universe. Use your hands (and hearts).

All of this Piscean energy from the beginning of 2025 has been very helpful for clarifying what dreams are being planted in us. To be given a dream is to steward the responsibility of making it a reality. To let the dream die unrealized, is to disrespect the gift itself. The dream does not ‘belong’ to you ~ you are its steward. And so, part of your active role in the cocreation with the Universe is to USE YOUR BODY, your physicality, your WILL, to bring the dream into tangible reality. You have been given the gift of a body, so that you may use it to assert your will in the outer world through direct action. Use your hands. Use your heart, in all of its passion.

Aries teaches us how to do this. And, like anything that involves growth, Aries reminds us that there will inevitably be risk involved. This is the skill of the controlled burn. If the heat is too low, the water will never boil. We’ll never ‘get cooking’ as it were. Yet if the heat is too high, we’ll burn the resources required to make the dream a reality. Find the sweet spot, the heat is on.

Venus and Neptune coming together in Aries is a new kind of flavor; spicier, less interested in the vision or idea of a thing, and more interested in experimentation. Fucking around and finding out, as every strong Aries signature teaches. This is a gift, as it requires us to lean into the edge of our comfort zone and ACTUALLY collaborate with the bigger powers of life. If we stay in the lukewarm waters too long, we’ll stagnate.
