This January, we’re asked to take stock and see what’s still standing. Venus is freshly in Aquarius so it’s time to make some necessary upgrades. Invest in the right equipment! Words and actions must align with Mercury and Mars perfectly conjunct in Capricorn. Aries Chiron square Cancer Jupiter asks for accountability. You can handle it.

  • full moon in cancer 🔮 future nostalgia
    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit starquality.substack.com

    It’s the first full moon of 2026! But it’s not our last in the sign of the crab. We have a full moon happening at 13° of Cancer on January 3, 2026, at 2:03 AM PT. Write this date down and come back to this later because it’s one of two full moons in Cancer! Our second full moon in Cancer will happen at the end of the year on December 23, 2026. This current full moon is our last with Jupiter in Cancer, while our second one later in the year will take place once Jupiter enters the mansion of Leo!

    The Capricorn personal planet party is getting us back in touch with our day-to-day necessities. Boundaries and expectations are the name of the game, as well as creating your own rituals with the ones you love. Capricorn + Cancer = mom and dad of the zodiac. Where can you build the family you’ve always dreamt of? Mercury square Neptune has us scared of saying the wrong thing, when in reality, we may flub our way to a closer connection.

  • the astrology of 2026: a new frontier

    Welcome to the astrology of 2026! The theme of 2026 is: a new frontier. While 2025 gave us a sneak peek at all the changes that were on the menu for 2026, it’s still going to feel like the first time in many ways. Some of the major highlights include:

    * Neptune and Saturn return to Aries - and make an iconic conjunction they haven’t made in 300 years!

    * Uranus heads back to Gemini - shaking up all things tech and how we communicate

    * Jupiter wraps up its time in Cancer and enters the Leo realm - giving us an over-do lesson in confidence

    * We get a splash of Chiron in Taurus after manyyyy years in Aries - is it finally time for the matriarchal rise?

    * Venus retrograde takes over in October + November in the signs of Libra + Scorpio. No secrets are safe, and breakups shall be a-plenty, as long as YOU know YOUR worth.

    One thing is certain: nothing will be the same. We’re entering an entirely new timeline. And while that can be intimidating, it also offers a fresh start and a chance to rewrite our own rules.

    Here are the time stamps for each month! <3

  • sagittarius new moon 🏋️‍♀️ raise the bar

    Last new moon of 2025! We have a gorgeous New Moon happening at 28° of Sagittarius on December 19, 2025, at 5:43 PM PT - adjust for your time zone! This New Moon in Sag is sandwiched between Venus in Sag and Mars in Capricorn. When Venus and Mars are present, that means we are getting a reality check-in regarding our wants and needs. Sag wants to have fun! Cap wants to have structure! Turns out…we can have it all?!! As long as we believe we deserve it all. Raise the bar if it’s currently been sitting in hell.

    Refresh yourself on the current Venus + Mars themes in my previous posts here:

    Mercury in Sagittarius is out on his own island, reminding us that words (sometimes) don’t mean shiiiiiiiiit. Mercury in Sag can often overpromise and underdeliver. This moment is about the actions. Jupiter in Cancer trine Saturn in Pisces is a real emotional alignment, getting real on what we can and cannot do. Plus, I beg to ask the question: which sign loves to rage bait the most? Sound off in the comments and listen in to find out which sign I think is the ragebaitiest.

  • gemini full moon 🎪 we're so ready
    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit starquality.substack.com

    Happy full moon starchildren! It’s our last full moon of 2025. What a long strange trip it’s been! This full moon is happening at 13° of Gemini on December 4, 2025, at 3:14 PM PT. Adjust for your time zone!

    13°…does that sound familiar? Well, last month’s full moon was also at 13° of Taurus, and then upcoming next two full moons of 2026 will also be at 13°! Similar to how we had a slew of new moons this year at 9°, the repetition of #s is no coincidence. Take this as your sign to notice where 13 is showing up in your life and what planets you have at 13° in your chart. 13° in degree theory is the degree associated with Aries! We are getting back to ourselves and honoring our impulses, especially with this mutable af full moon! MAKE A DECISION BITCH. STOP WAITING START DOING.

    This full moon is making a mutable grand cross with the nodes, which is all about taking the brainstorm into gamestorm (is this a real phrase? It is today! Gemini stylie!) ~ This is not a roll over and go holiday blob mode December. The Saturn square Mars of right now is the reinvigoration we need, especially if we’ve been feeling blocked.

    Don’t put off your goals until 2026; the perfect time to pursue is NOW. ESPECIALLY because it’s our first new year without a retrograde moment! In 2022, we had Venus Retrograde, 2023 was Mercury Retrograde, 2024 was also Mercury Retrograde, and 2025 was Mars Retrograde. 2026 is the fresh start we’ve all been craving.

    A big ol water trine is helping us learn to connect better with others, especially if we’ve been trying to fix the “wrong” problems. Venus and Mars are gossiping with the Sun and seeing where they need to break away from the typical path so they can have the most fun. Who’s down to join you will be revealed…not everyone has to be your everything.

    Please <3, comment, and share this post. I’d love to hear your thoughts!

    SOCAL! Join me this December! This Sunday, 12/7 from Noon - 5 PM at Mesmerry Market in Pasadena - discounted mini readings are a great chance to check in for 2026 IRL!

    and also, I will be back at Two Bunch Palms the weekend of Dec 19-21, leading workshops for the New Moon and the Winter Solstice! Come have a retreat in the desert! https://twobunchpalms.com/programming

  • scorpio new moon 🪃 karma
    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit starquality.substack.com

    We are going going goneeee. This New Moon in Scorpio is really Mercury Retrograde’s New Moon! Let’s get into it.

    This New Moon is happening at 28° of Scorpio on November 19, 2025, at 10:47 PM PT. Adjust for your time zone! Scorpio can point to where in our chart we tend to be private, but the Mercury Retrograde is offering a seldom-seen peek behind the curtain. Honestly, I think Mercury Retrograde is the lifesaver in this chart, keeping us from a psychotic state of full-blown limerence. THERE’S SO MUCH WATER IN THE SKY. All of the visible planets are in water signs besides Mars! Uranus in Taurus is also giving us a bitch slap of a reality check as well.

    Venus and Mars are conversing with the nodes, reminding us to face our fears instead of fleeing. I also dig into themes around ~karma~ that came up during a candelight yoga class I attended. Karma may typically have us pointing and laughing at someone for “getting what they deserve” (Scorpio vengeance is UNMATCHED), but with Mercury Retrograde asking us to stop and reflect, we’re here to point the finger back at ourselves. Someone losing doesn’t equal us winning. Where can we pour that energy back into ourselves?

    Please <3, comment, and share this post. I’d love to hear your thoughts!

  • my first séance: the lily dale diaries

    It’s Halloween, so there’s no better time to reflect back on my first séance, which happened while I was attending an art residency in the famed Spiritualist hamlet of Lily Dale, NY. It wasn’t originally part of my itinerary, but when you’re spending two weeks living in the largest community of folks who speak to the dead, do as the locals do.

    :::a séance is a gathering where people try to communicate with spirits or the dead, typically through a medium:::

    In this episode, I reflect on the séance experience as a first timer with Tiffany Hopkins, a spiritualist medium and host of my Lily Dale art residency and Thom Daly, a spiritualist medium who led the séance I attended.

    Thom walks us through the history of Spiritualism + Lily Dale, the ins and outs of ectoplasm, the difference between psychic vs medium, and gives us a visual tour of the spirit trumpet.

    Tiffany discusses the importance of maintaining a relationship with deceased loved ones and how to incorporate mediumship into an artistic practice…and other far-out things :)

    Follow Thom on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dalyspiritualist/ + his email is [email protected] if you plan on visiting Lily Dale and need a lay of the land :)

    Thom Daly is a Spiritualist Medium, student of the Morris Pratt Institute, the Inner Spiritual Center, as well as a member of the Lily Dale Assembly- where he resides year round. His work explores the history, science, and practice of evidential mediumship—bridging Spiritualism’s roots with modern expression. Being guided by the belief that mediumship is a sacred faculty, he strives to preserve its integrity with a focus on providing clear evidence to the continuity of life.

    Follow Tiffany on IG: https://www.instagram.com/normalizetalkingtothedead/ | check out her website: https://www.normalizetalkingtothedead.com/ | and buy their book Beyond: A Living Person’s Guide to the Dead https://www.amazon.com/Beyond-Living-Persons-Guide-Dead/dp/1454958391

    Tiffany Hopkins is an author, medium, educator, and researcher based in Lily Dale, NY. She runs Nobox Inc., a research and design firm. She also works to share the unique experience of living surrounded by people who talk to the dead through Normalize Talking To The Dead, a website, podcast, and residency. Her book Beyond: A Living Person’s Guide To The Dead was published in 2025.

  • libra new moon 𐙚 back to the vision
    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit starquality.substack.com

    Happy New Moon in Libra star-party-people!!!! <3 We have the Libra New Moon happening at 28° of Libra on October 21, 2025, at 5:25 AM PT. It’s our first new moon post eclipses and we are getting back to the manifestation drawing board!

    We’ll go over the tension from Jupiter, Pluto, and Chiron, all of which are ultimately asking us to confront our relationship to control and the illusion of it. Pluto is asking us who is dominating your front brain? Cuz it’s time to evict whoever’s been living in your mind rent-free.

    Mercury + Mars conjunction in Scorpio is asking us to state our purpose. Unaspected Venus in Libra is standing on her own, wondering where all the cuties are. It’s our last New Moon before Neptune Retrogrades back in Pisces. With 0° Neptune Aries and 0° Gemini Uranus, something is ready to be born from your creative passion…but Saturn back in Pisces needs us to get to the soul of it all. Plus I chat making sigils for your vision board + social media posts <3

    Please <3, comment, and share this post. I’d love to hear your thoughts!

  • aries full moon 🫧👈 bursting the bubble
    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit starquality.substack.com

    What’s up star-party-people! It’s a supermoon full moon happening at 14° of Aries at 8:47PM PT on October 6, 2025. Adjust for your time zone :P

    It’s our first major lunation since eclipse season ~and~ our first Aries Full Moon since a different eclipse season, the Aries-Libra eclipses of 2023-2025, with our last Aries eclipse being earlier this year…which feels insane. The first lunation after eclipse szn is the marker of the end of the intensified period, not that this full moon chart doesn’t bring its own spice! The Aries energy is a reminder to get back to ourselves as we pop the energetic bubble that has been brewing since the end of August. I also chat about Taylor Swift’s diss track aimed at Charli XCX and go over Aries Moon lesson 101: punching down never works. Aries wants a good, clean fight!

    Mercury just moved into Scorpio, and while typically the secret keeper, a square from Pluto in Aquarius could release intimate confessions. Virgo Venus with the South Node is a sweet surrender to be mindful of impossible standards, and to love ourselves and others, flaws and all. Oh and Aries is connected to the skin and you can hear the story of why I’m covered in welts. Also I’m ready to be the brand ambassador for the MySpace revival if anyone can put me in touch. Enjoy la luna, kids!
