The 2025 spring reading is done. These are 50-minute readings that calmly explore our current astrological wilderness. I wanted to have your reading ready well in advance so you have time to work with the ideas I’m seeing in the astrology. We’re getting a lot of action all at once; I read the charts thoughtfully, in plain talk, in slow motion — so you can really get the feeling of these events and put them to maximum benefit. Note, it’s alternately called For the Faithful, Reckoning and the Spring Reading… you can choose your favorite name and color.
Aries (March 20-April 19) — The Sun’s alignment to Chiron may be reminding you of all you think is working against you. Circumstances of your inner and outer life may be churning up your insecurity or past injuries. Yet somewhere amidst the seeming negativity is a message about your potential. There is information coming through the static about the value of honoring your healing process. You have the power to envision yourself as whole and balanced within yourself and your relationships. Yet there is distance to cross between here and there — mostly the distance of inner recognition. If circumstances are insisting or pushing you to do one thing, it’s to be self-aware. And that always requires traveling inward through some pain and chaos as you awaken the parts of you that were previously asleep. If you devote yourself to this journey, it will be worth the experience. If you rise to the occasion, your trust in yourself will be rewarded with a new kind of inner peace and true confidence.

Taurus (April 19-May 20) — There are times when you absolutely know something but don’t know how you know. The feeling may be subtle; it may be possible to set aside. And ‘know’ may be too strong of a word; ‘understanding’ might fit your situation better. There may be a cloud of haze around your awareness, or it may seem dim, and you might easily forget as you go through the day. Yet there can be no doubt you’re feeling something. You don’t need to prove anything; you merely need to ask yourself consciously what is happening, and then write down the first thing that comes into your mind before you edit yourself. There is a veil in your mind, and it’s very thin and made mostly of denial. On the other side of that veil you are having a profound recognition about yourself; something bold is taking shape. You may have never felt anything like this before, and it’s likely to feel daunting. Keep feeling.

Gemini (May 20-June 21) — Not everyone is cut out to be a public person. Yet nearly everyone has been thrust into having a public face and a public life of some kind. For those who are not cut out for this, or who are not mature enough to handle it, the result can be serious psychological instability, insecurity or feeling invaded or overexposed. You must assess your relationship to this situation. It may be necessary for you to step back. You are a social person, and that means you like to hang out with people in person and without a video camera in your face. You like to speak freely and be fairly certain you’re not being recorded. We are all in way over our heads on these matters, and your charts speak strongly of your need to get a handle on your situation. This includes the ideas to which you are exposed from other presenters. You don’t need so much ‘information’. You need peace of mind.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) — This is a special time in your life — of maturity, awakening and discovering your purpose. Yet the way this turns up is what I’m calling purpose and what we could also call radical self-discovery. They show up as the same thing, and that happens to be in the 10th place of work, reputation, taking action and leadership. As I have written many times, I think that the old astrology books are off on the sign Cancer, declaring it the realm of homebodies. Yes, home is important to you, though primarily as a base of operations from which you make your mark on the world. You are much more enterprising and outgoing than you give yourself credit for, with a strong dose of aspirational drive that is trying to get your attention. Yet remember that your true home is your interior space. To achieve what you came here to do, you need a strong inner orientation that is very difficult to sustain right now. But the need has never been greater.

Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) — What is healing? Lately people seem to have two ideas — going to the doctor, and talking about trauma. But neither of those have any relationship to the condition of our soul, or the long quest that amounts to the journey back to God. And this is the same thing as the journey back to yourself. Few take this on consciously. Most choose the route of hard knocks, wondering what is happening and never seeking the assistance of their inner teacher. However, you may find that this is a helpful thing to do, and that there’s something about the conditions of your life and of your psyche right now that will make this especially effective right at this moment. It’s essential that you point yourself inward at this time — despite the many temptations of the world around us, and the many invitations to totally surrender your inner space. Listen to yourself in a deep and patient way and anything is possible.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) — So what happens when you’re deep in a relationship and realize you’ve become someone other than the one who made the commitment somewhere deep in the distant past? Or maybe two years ago? The first thing you do is have a check-in with your partner. I suggest that you structure this such that they are the ones getting a chance to talk about where they’re at, and you’re the one who listens. This will be highly informative for you, and give you a sense of where you stand, as your perception will be replaced by going to a deeper layer of truth. Most people avoid these conversations because they know how much they are withholding. This prevents you from having an idea where closer partners are at, and it prevents them from knowing where you’re at. If there is a way forward through a challenging relationship situation, it starts with being receptive and being truthful, without judgment. That and nothing else is a true relationship.

Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) — You have a sexual truth, and you have a sexual imagination. What you actually do, have done, or intend to do will help you figure out the difference. Yet you’ll never actually know where you stand with yourself if you use guilt to regulate your thoughts and actions. And you may not realize that the primary force holding you down is something within your own psyche. In this most unusual time of your life, I would propose that truth is the only way you can proceed with sanity or peace of mind; by that I mean having no secrets. If you fear that being honest will blow up your current reality, then you might surmise that your ‘reality’ is based on a series of interwoven deceptions. The fact that others might believe them or go along with them is not a testament to their being the right thing. People all carry around their own delusions, and it’s possible to take advantage of them. However, that policy is at the end of its service life.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) — You may feel like you’re in a pinch or a jam. Really you’re in a kind of spotlight, or maybe a hot seat. How you perceive what’s happening is a matter of your line of view, so I suggest you consider your situation from at least three or four angles. Turn your theories upside down, and look at them sideways and see if they make sense in a new way. One pretty sure thing about ‘higher consciousness’ is that it involves thinking in different dimensions rather than the usual three plus time. However, to find those dimensions, you would be well served to study the meeting points of the familiar ones. Those are called nodes, and they reveal something unusual about whatever they comment on. The thing you’re looking for is specifically how, where and when to direct your energy in a highly focused way. You don’t need to go off in all directions — you need just one.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) — To cultivate creativity on our particular planet, one usually must go through difficult experiences. This is usually about letting go of resistance, and making contact with one’s long-buried pain. The world is not set up for people to be respected in their sincerity, or even to be just a little different. To stand out is a significant commitment and once you begin there is no going back. So I suggest you accept this truth of your reality and live your life fully. That means living as boldly distinctive; as potentially controversial; and as genuinely alive. Accept that there are risks to not hiding yourself in the back room; accept that to actually express yourself comes with no assurance of success. That is the whole point of being on this planet; this is the thin ice on which every spiritual initiate or true artist must walk. And for those with this dharma, there is nothing more fulfilling than being willing to live your truth, come what may.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) — Events around the Full Moon are likely to get professional or vocational activities moving, and you could make a name for yourself for a breakthrough or accomplishment. However, I suggest you deflect the spotlight and give credit to everyone who may have helped, including someone who seems to resent your success. If you can figure out who that person is in advance, do what you can to bring them in. It’s possible that a domestic partner may resent not just how much you’re working, but how you’re actually getting something done. Regarding all matters professional, get it in writing and put it in writing. At the moment verbal promises are worth the approximate value of a cool breeze, and you need to document your activities, your commitments and your views — and those of the people around you. One other thing pops out of this same aspect pattern: it’s time to utilize your skills as a champion bargain hunter.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Let’s focus on two potential properties of awareness: pattern recognition and knowing when you don’t know. The two concepts are closely related. One form of not knowing is not seeing the pattern. One form of not seeing the pattern is not knowing that you need to look for it. Another form of not seeing the pattern is pretending that you see something that is not there. Developing awareness is the most important form of learning. By awareness, I mean conscious awareness: being aware of what you’re aware of. I know this sounds like what the AI wizards are trying to program computers to do; it’s a skill that any human can have, but that most find too annoying to develop. At the moment you are somewhere between not having a choice, and potentially thriving on a shift of awareness. The pressure is on, though if you can shift your perception, you will feel better.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — You are working with more information than you may think, as long as you look from an angle where you can see the patterns. You will not need to make up a story. If you’re looking, seeing and feeling, the shape will jump out like the locomotive in the Magic Eye books. You cannot force this, but what you can do is relax and be open to seeing in three dimensions. Life is not a flat screen TV. There are many layers of background; situations have depth; and the dancing figure in front of you may not be revealing much of anything. Therefore, do that Pisces thing and peer behind the veil. Be circumspect and look at your situation from many angles. Listen carefully to someone who offers collaboration, assistance or specific information. A breakthrough is most likely to come with the April 12 Full Moon in Libra.
