I do my best to stay grounded and rise above the chaos. I try to lean into my inner optimistic Sagittarius Sun, because when the world starts to unravel, that part of me becomes my life jacket. My ability to be functional…to take meaningful action, to make art from the ache, depends on it, depends on my Sagittarius Sun & north node. But the past few days have definitely challenged that optimism.

When the major bill in the US was passed on Friday, I wasn’t surprised. My guides had whispered it to me months ago, even as my ego pushed back and tried to negotiate a different reality.

Still, witnessing it unfold in real time was a punch to the chest. It broke my heart. Millions of Americans rely on Medicaid, many of my own family members do too. To know that access to care is being stripped away, that hospitals will likely shut down, that lives will be lost not because of scarcity but because of calculated cruelty… it’s almost too much to process. There’s also the defunding of the National Weather Service… another ridiculous dismantling that is weaponized negligence when you look at the devastating flood in Texas over the weekend.

We're watching the direct horrifying consequences of neglect unfold in real time, and somehow people still treat it like background noise. I’m accessing deeper levels of grief and rage I didn’t even know I had. It feels like insane turtles all the way down. Everything feels absurd right now.

Even after the Fourth of July, the illegal fireworks wouldn’t stop. I heard them past 1 a.m. the past few days, heart pounding, unable to sleep. My cats were frantic. And it just struck me, how casually many accept this kind of disregard.

For pets. For veterans with PTSD. For those who simply want a night of rest. It’s this erosion of empathy that sometimes feels like the root of so much of our collective suffering right now.

On a brighter note, last night my husband and I watched K-Pop Demon Hunters on Netflix and it unexpectedly cracked something open in me.

It was joyful, weird, hilarious and gut wrenchingly beautiful. The characters wrestled with light and shadow in ways that eerily mirrored the Venus-Uranus in Gemini energy. The movie was a poetic reminder that our words, our thoughts, our lyrics, shape the vibrational frequency of the collective.

I can’t recommend it enough. It was the medicine I didn’t know I needed. And maybe, just maybe, this movie shows us a poetic example of how we start to rebuild. One intentional word. One brave truth. One frequency-shifting act at a time.

Now, with all of that sitting in the backdrop, let’s take a look at the astrology of the week ahead.
