Shifting the astrological tide

By Cassandra Tyndall

The astrological tide is shifting in dramatic and potent ways which will highlight turning points, solutions and a new course of action. Any stumbling blocks, confusion or general logistical snafus will begin to iron themselves out, thanks to Mercury ending its retrograde phase. At the same time, so does benevolent Jupiter. 

Together, these two planets suggest the arrival of a helpful piece of information or a supportive solution that can help you move forward with confidence and hope. This should continue through the end of the month. 

When you’ve got the intel, insight or fresh perspectives you need, you can push forward with a plan of action. A Full Moon in Aries will illuminate the way in which you can do this. If you’ve been proverbially chasing your tail, delaying action due to indecision or avoiding conflict, this week might be the time to push ahead with your own plans or desires regardless.

Another big turning point takes shape in the form of the Sun’s annual arrival in the sign of Scorpio. As the light shifts focus, it’s time to harness your energy and intention so you’re battle-ready to face the next chapter of 2021’s celestial high-jinks.

Short poles

It never felt like this before. My chest was in the right position and wasn’t getting bounced backward every few turns.

Only three people have ever cut my hair: There was the older gentleman that my mother brought me to when I was young. Then there was the son of my dad’s barber, who cut my hair for decades. And finally, there’s the guy I’ve been going to for the last several years. I especially liked…
