The Lunistice is a very special transit, and we will experience it this 2025. As we can guess from its name, the lunistice is an astronomical phenomenon comparable to the solstice, but starring the Moon. While the solstices occur annually marking the highest or lowest points of the Sun in the sky, the lunistices take place every 18.6 years , when the Moon reaches its maximum declination, either its highest or lowest point in the sky, depending on the hemisphere where we are (don't you know what declination is? The explanation in this post ). In January 2025, the Moon... read more

Critical thinking, journalism, and the way we understand the world have been deeply affected, generating confusion, polarization, and a disconnection from the truth. As we approach 2025, a year that promises to bring enormous (and enormous is an understatement) social, economic, and spiritual transformations, a clear and focused mind will be essential to face these changes.

In synastry, the Sun reflects where and how each person needs to feel that recognition and project their light into the relationship . Understanding the... read more

We have several months ahead of us with a rather turbulent astrological climate and many changes worldwide. Within this context, it could be said that Mars retrograde marks the beginning of these somewhat crazy months. This retrograde —which will begin on December 6, 2024, and end on February 23, 2025, and in which Mars will retrograde from 6°10' Leo to 17°0' Cancer— represents a key moment to stop, reflect, and readjust our actions. Let's face it: this is an uncomfortable retrograde. Mars is the planet that retrogrades the least frequently—about 70 to 80 days every two years. We're not usually... read more

If we're looking for a month that delivers certainty, December won't be that month. This will be a period that asks us to be adaptable in the face of uncertainty, coexisting with confusion, slowness, and disorder . With Mercury retrograde for half the month, Mars entering retrograde, and Jupiter and Neptune also in retrograde motion (although Neptune will resume direct motion), the feeling of uncertainty will be a central theme. In this context, it is essential to keep fear at bay and work through any feelings of loss of control that may arise. This does not mean ignoring anxiety or... read more
