What a horrendous day. Happy Venus retrograde!

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

The elements today: - Luminaries in air - Mercury & Venus in water - Mars, Jupiter & Saturn in fire Air & water are moist elements, they are linked with interaction, adaptability, malleability. Fire is a dry element, it imposes itself, is non-molding, but also illuminates and energizes.

Starting Mars transiting my 1H strong with a high fever 💪

Libra and Aries are the signs of the equinoxes. While they are cardinal signs - they initiate a new season - they are also always concerned with the question of balance. Or in other words, in order to start something, something else gets lost. In order to take, someone else has to give.

While elements and modalities get a lot of attention when describing the quality of a sign, gender/polarity is a building block that often gets overlooked. Air/fire signs are masculine/active, they speed things up. Earth/water signs are feminine/passive and operate more slowly. It‘s about pace.

From an ultra cardinal Full Moon ruled by anaretic Mars in Cancer, the astro weather shifts to the fixed signs today with Mars‘ ingress into Leo and the Moon entering Taurus. Things get slower and steadier, require patience, dedication, focus.

It‘s so funny the Venus rx in Scorpio 2018 is one of the first big astrological events I remember hearing about on the astrology podcast forecasts. Wild to think I‘ve been at this for a whole Venus cycle.

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

The mood for the rest of the week is very cardinal with 4 planets in cardinal signs. Initiate the thing now! Next week, as Mars shifts into Leo on Monday and Mercury enters Scorpio on Wednesday, things become more fixed - good for follow-through.

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

We have literally no planet in an earth sign (except the Moon‘s passes through Taurus/Virgo/Cap) from the start of Libra season until Nov 26, when Mars enters Virgo. That is more than two months of no earth.

Wait now I have to wait until Venus is back in Libra and direct until I can get a haircut????? But I need nice pictures for job applications 😮‍💨

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Just found the song again that I listened to on repeat when I was sad and heartbroken af during the Venus rx in Capricorn. That was a hard one.

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

Who does great career/purpose astrology readings? Really wondering where to go next now that I‘ve been forced to consider it. Also Saturn coming for my 10H in 2028 soo… 👀

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Hate it when I‘m right about the astrology. Venus, ruler of my 10H, stations rx opposite my MC. Today I was let go (by end of the year) from the company I worked at for 7 years. Fun fact: I signed the first contract during a Mercury rx in Scorpio.

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

I am already exhausted how am I supposed to survive three back to back retrogrades 😩

1130

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Uranus about to station in my 11H and suddenly I get… requests?? … to hang out??? … unprompted?? Is this the start of my social era

0100

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Ok officially sent in my application to pursue another degree during Jupiter hour with exalted Mercury on MC. Wish me luck! (I have no idea if I have it in me to complete another degree with two little kids and a part-time job and poor sleep and zero me time but Saturn is transiting my 9H so 😅)

0140

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

Lol not me going back to school right when Venus, ruler of my 3H, stations retrograde.

090

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

What I‘m noticing living with a partner whose Asc trines mine is that transits always hit houses for us that are somehow related, since trining houses often have themes in common. It‘s kinda neat.

0110

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

It‘s eclipse week of course I have a random eye infection. Plus my daughter woke up crying last night insisting that her feet hurt? What in the Pisces…

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

When do you stop reeling from your Saturn return. Asking for me, currently at opening Saturn sextile.

1100

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

Oof feeling that weird eclipsy grief for a past that never was/muddling of time thing especially intensely today. Eclipses really are a glimpse into the multiverse, huh?

2190

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

So eclipse > chart ruler transiting domicile, apparently. (Aka my Leo Sun Taurus rising daughter is currently very sick.)

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

My eclipse day omens: I was given a whole box of fresh plums from a random man whose garden I walked by and bought an entire Black Forest cake for only 3.90 (normal prize 12.90) because it was incorrectly labelled. As "Cake Generoso". Hellooo Jupiter in Leo I guess 😅

0130

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 11/08/2026

This is just to let you know that I‘m taking this eclipse personally.

Screenshot of the first house of a biwheel chart with a solar eclipse at 20° Leo in the outer wheel and a 21° Leo Ascendant on the inner wheel.

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

Are things already eclipse-y or why was yesterday like THAT??

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

Jupiter cazimi in my 1H is me not getting the cold the rest of my family has. Unspectacular, but support is often simply the absence of something bad.

070

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Brief exploration of connection between Leo and the self (since writing about this abounds during Leo season): this connection, in my opinion, stems from the dichotomy between Sun and Moon, between spirit and matter, between that which is eternal (Sun) and that which is eternally fluctuating (Moon).

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

Mercury shadow period until the rx station: heatwave in Europe Mercury newly direct, covering those same degrees: heatwave in Europe I bet the heatwave will be over once Mercury crosses the station degree at 26° Cancer. That‘s roughly Thursday/Friday a week from now.

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

I like mine, earthy and warm, they‘re colors I gravitate towards.

2120

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Wait maybe *I* need to do something good for myself, it IS my 1H ruler transiting my 1H after all. What a concept

0110

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

If Sun in domicile with Jupiter transiting my 1H don‘t do something good for me then I‘m calling astrology fake for at least a month (ignoring the eclipse on my Asc 🤡)

060

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Mercury stationing rx in my 12H: baby (and me) slept terribly because sick. Mercury stationing direct in my 12H: baby (and me) sleep terribly because teething. Can we be done with the 12H transits I am so tired (very literally.)

0100

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

Mercury is at its station degree of 16° Cancer until next Monday. Things are gonna be slow, maybe there‘s another change of direction or something that has felt muddled is finally, after a lot of back and forth, gonna get clarified.

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

The rest of this year continues to be very fire/water heavy, with the air and earth elements only sprinkled in. Mars transits through Cancer/Leo until Nov 26, when it enters Virgo. Venus and Mercury both station retrograde in Scorpio, prolonging their water-sign stays. Saturn and Jupiter remain -

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Beats me how barely any astrologers are talking about climate change as the thing signified by this basket pattern that will reshape the world for the rest of the century. It is so obvious and yet everyone is focused on war 🙄

Post your stellium fail here: hi, I‘m a 10H stellium with no career to speak of 👋

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 06/07/2026

Jupiter leaving Cancer and Mercury stationing rx feels a bit like we‘ve been left cold, wet and shivering on the floor. You notice the lack of support only when it‘s gone…

090

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 06/07/2026

Lol did not think I‘d spend this tiny window of time with both benefics in my 1H sick in bed 🥲

140

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

Due to my kids being sick/teething at the same time, I slept about 3 hours the last two nights. I now feel nauseous/shivery when upright out of sheer tiredness. So here‘s to me cancelling everything today and catching up on sleep - happy Mercury station day (in my 12H)!

1120

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

Some reflections on Jupiter in Cancer: this was a 12H transit for me, and it pretty much coincided with the post-partum/baby phase for my second child. Yes, it brought a lot of sleepless nights and my head feeling permanently foggy (almost put formula into my coffee today 😅), but it also came with -

1100

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

Just a heads up: the Leo eclipse this August happens at 20°, same degree Mars will station direct next April. So if you have any placements at around 20° of the fixed signs, things are about to get shaken up (cries in 21° Leo rising 😭)

2112

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

Mars squaring my daughter‘s 1H ruler to the degree and of course she‘s home running a very high fever, in a heatwave 🔥😭

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 22/06/2026

Thanks to AI, everyone can code now. What‘s more Aquarius/Gemini than that.

110

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 22/06/2026

My hot take is that astrology is often way more literal than you think. Saturn in a water sign? Terrified of wet things/mess. Ruled by the Sun? First name means "light". Stuff like that. It‘s so on the nose sometimes.

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 22/06/2026

A friend had her baby this weekend, a little Gemini Sun/rising with Moon in Virgo in mutual reception with Mercury in Cancer. How sweet 🥹

180

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

Me: Mercury rx isn‘t that bad Also me: in a Mercury profection 😬

090

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

Anyone else feel like things are "accelerating" right now? Like stuff is starting to happen that‘ll have far-reaching consequences. Feels a bit like eclipse season, except it isn’t. Is it because of the upcoming sign-changes (Mars, Jupiter?)

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

At work and just did an interview with someone who built their own tiny house and simultaneously got pregnant/had a baby. Just wish I knew their birth chart because what in the 5H transit was going on here

180

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

Mercury in a malefic enclosure and our internet, server, basically everything is down at work. So it‘s forced coffee break (Mercury copresent with both benefics at the same time 😅)

Alina ✨ @livedastrology.bsky.social · 09/06/2026

So sad I won‘t get to see the Venus Jupiter conjunction in the sky tonight. It‘s raining, go figure (water signs *sigh*)
