THE THREAD OF THREADS 🧵 For the past 18 months, I've been writing about astrology, magic, planetary remedies, relationships, money, and the art of timing. Here are my most-liked evergreen threads, collected in one place. Bookmark this. I'll keep adding to it. ↓

Your partner's 11th house is your 5th. Turn the chart toward the 7th, count eleven places, and you arrive at your house of joy. Derived houses can show why companionship and pleasure sometimes meet in the same story.

One of the most important things I do in a private astrology consultation is explain WHY a particular interpretation applies to your chart. Two people can experience the same planetary transit very differently because the planets involved govern different areas of their lives. I examine those individual rulerships, their natal condition, and the timing of relevant planetary cycles to understand what a development may mean specifically for you. If you're facing an important decision, we can examine the periods ahead and discuss how to approach them with greater awareness. My private consultations are $222. You can ask questions about the circumstances that matter most to you. DM "reading" to enquire about booking.

What the fuck? If you’re so horny that you’re willing to fuck anyone, you’ve completely lost control of your desires. Your standards are nonexistent, your judgment is fucked, and your genitals are making executive decisions. How embarrassing. Anyway, Venus retrograde problems.

Use this Venus retrograde to recalibrate how you love and how you allow yourself to be loved. Do the people who desire you actually value you as you value yourself? Do they care about your pleasure, or only about giving it to you on their terms? Are your desires mutual? Someone can pursue you relentlessly and still be entirely self-serving. Life is far too short to organise yourself around people who cannot appreciate you on your own terms. Love yourself enough to recognise the difference.

One of the strangest feelings is meeting somebody you used to be desperate to impress and realising their opinion no longer has any power over your day.

Pisces risings have one of the most magnetic Venusian configurations in the zodiac. Pisces 1H, Taurus 3H, Libra 8H. Venus rules their 3H and 8H, and is exalted in their 1H. Their identity and physical presence (1H), their voice, words, and everyday communications (3H), and their intimate vulnerabilities and deep entanglements (8H) all carry the same Venusian signature. There can be something extraordinarily compelling about the way these people communicate. Attraction may have as much to do with what they say, what they reveal, and what they leave unspoken as it does with their appearance. Their charm can come from making another person feel invited into a private world. I think Pisces rising deserves to be discussed much more seriously in conversations about magnetism. Venus is exalted in the very sign through which they meet the world.

Which is harder for you: recognising when something feels good, or allowing yourself to keep it?

A Full Moon in an exaltation sign isn't a universal promise of good fortune. Exaltation is one kind of dignity. The house it falls in, its ruler and the rest of the chart still matter. Astrology gets more useful when we stop treating one symbol as the whole verdict.

Venus rules both Taurus and Libra. Taurus asks what makes pleasure tangible; Libra asks what happens when we share it. The same planet speaks in the language of the body and the language of relationship.

♌️ On November 15–16, 2026, Mars, Jupiter and the South Node will form an exceptionally tight conjunction around 25° Leo. I think this could bring certain experiences from 2021 back into focus. Go back to August–December 2021. What was happening in your life? In early September 2021, Jupiter was retrograde around 25° Aquarius, directly opposite the upcoming conjunction, while the South Node occupied Sagittarius, a Jupiter-ruled sign. Mars was also travelling through Virgo. Five years later, Jupiter meets the South Node itself, with Mars positioned between them. I wonder whether people from that period could reappear, or whether decisions you made back then might require reconsideration. With Mars turning retrograde in early 2027, this story could unfold over the next six months. Comment your Mars sign and house below. I’ll respond to a few of you and explain what this configuration could bring into your life.

Me doing my daily affirmations:

The Full Moon reaches about 2°45 Taurus early today in UTC, late Sunday for much of America. The Moon is exalted in Taurus, and Venus rules Taurus while retrograde in Libra. An elegant sky for examining the difference between comfort and attachment.
