you'll fill the water glass again: horoscopes for tonight's full moon in Libra
hallo my bb,
You have come to understand Neptune as burnout.
From observations of your own life, and of your friends, and of your clients, and of the world.
(There is always another thing.) Neptune is burnout. Yes! Neptune is a dream or a nightmare. (Or “Darling, I’m a nightmare dressed like a daydream.”) A haze. A coma. A drug. All of these things.
But you have come to understand all of these things as burnout. As a cry for help with muted volume. As an injury with no bandage. As hours of staring at a blank screen and a full glass of water. Unable to write. Unable to drink. If you could only put your fingers to the keys, or your lips to the glass, you would have sweetness. A considered, ephemeral moment. If only you could relax as you stare into the sea. But you can’t. The sea is relentless. There is too much to notice. Too many dreams. Too many nightmares. Too many details. You feel too good and it scares you and you want to wake up. The dream is revealing so much.
There is so much to hold, and to fix, but you can’t.
So you go on. Down the stream. To the ocean.
Neptune in Pisces has brought us all closer to the veil. Closer to God. To both creation and decay. Remember: Pisces is two fish swimming in opposite directions - one toward and one away. Though Pisces goes deep, Pisces always returns. Cancer leads us to the lake, and Scorpio pulls us into the lagoon, but Pisces asks, “well, what if we are the sea, huh?”
As Neptune dances with Mercury retrograde (forming an exact conjunction this Sunday - oh boy!), you come to accept that the secrets have been revealed. The secrets have been pondered. And the secrets will be revealed again. It is only by noticing this that you can accept it, and you do, because you must.
Peak zodiac-tualization reached.
At 6:28 PM (pst), the sun shifts into Aries & you begin.
(Happy Spring Equinox, bb!)
You love this time of year.
People born on this cusp are always wise kids. Curious & hungry, yet mysterious.
Like Yayoi Kusama & Agnes Martin (birthday twin art queens), they are always with a wild spark in their eye & an idea on the horizon. Whether that be a holy triangle or a universe in a mirror.
The world is an oyster & expression is a splatter.
The sun like a freshly laid egg peaking over the horizon.
The first degrees of Aries: nowhere to go but up!
A collective exhale.
You take a leap, and somehow make it happen with no plan.
You trust in what you have. You make it short & sweet.
(It’s a hill to climb // not a sea to obey.)
A million songs. A million lunch poems. A million green heart emojis.
You press send.
It’s okay.
At 6:43 PM (pst), the moon is full in Libra.
You are still spinning, yes. But you are going. And going and going and going and going. And going. You are climbing! You can still see the tide lapping at the foot of the mountain!
For now, you are the sunset.
(Aries can only begin,
and Libra can only end.)
And you still haven’t drank your glass of water.
You must balance all that you have learned with what wills you to continue.
(Sometimes the future is better considered through the lens of the past.)
And as you climb, you fall. You are tired & overwhelmed & contain all that you are and all that you aren’t, and isn’t the sunset beautiful? You made it so. At the top, you laugh and put some LEMON in your water. And mint. You make lemonade. It’s beautiful. Yellow. Green. The sunset is purple. Blue. You drink what you’ve poured. The sun sets.
You continue.
You’ll fill the water glass again (& again & again & again).
Happy Spring Equinox, bb.
Happy Full Moon.
I love you!

Aries
You have waited all year, bb, and NOW it is YR SEASON. But before you book your solo trip to the mountains, make every phone call to every special bb. You’ve been trapped in the mess of losing yourself so ask yr closest babes to remind you who you are. Let yourself be carried.
Succumb to the chariot.
Taurus
A bit of sweet medicine waits at your bedside. Wrapped in silk. You know just how much to take so trust yourself. Friends have been misleading you - or sending you on too many trips - the primrose path is making you nauseous and you want out of the club. Instead, go to the bookstore and find the largest book on the most complicated topic that interests you. Start with page 1.
Gemini
A present is waiting at a new favorite bar. A present of yr desire. A notice of yr pleasure. It’s ok to get swept up in what brings you joy. And that joy doesn’t need to be seen. Everyone has been forgetting your name AND giving you promotion after promotion. It’s confusing. You don’t have to do what you do every second that you do something.
Sing instead.
Cancer
It feels good to return. To get home. And to see every crack. Every misplaced item. Every empty jar. Every lone sock. You put it there. It’s amazing to remember the control you have over space. Lie down on the couch or get down on the rug. What you believe will come when you are settled. You can see the world from your window.
Leo
A brilliant move would be to dance in the car. Or take a long walk to get some ice cream. Turn around and retrace your steps. You have been chasing down every person who owes you a cent and it has wiped you out. Just buy the vegan ice cream, and save the expense report for tomorrow. (Get to it with a cup of tea).
Virgo
There is a bigger cushion under you than you realize. Gold or green or sweet blue pool. Take a look at it tonight. Get up from your seat and take a hard look. Count what you’ve earned. Your partner has felt distant (even though for you they have made a huge sacrifice). Other people are so tiring. Note what else is lifting you up.
Libra
Yr lover has their away message up, so please, I beg you: go to the big sky.
You have spent so much time this month and this life dealing with OTHER PEOPLE’S PROBLEMS. (remember when you found luxury in shining up every piece of chaos? Find that.)
Close your eyes & breathe only for yourself. Take an inventory of the debris & you’ll feel ok.
Scorpio
The long nights out have gotten more and more tedious. The moon won’t always be shining to guide you home. What is pleasure to you? (not just the absence of pain) Imagine yourself as a tiny cog in a giant machine. Count the ways you contribute. Forget who you “want to be” and commit to the action of becoming.
Sagittarius
When was your last dream realized? Or when did you last set a goal? It’s been awhile, hasn’t it? You let some big ideas float away this fall. They are in the sky, but NOW you must CHASE. You are discovering so much about what it means to tell & keep a secret. Let what bubbles keep bubbling. Turn down the heat on the private sous vide. Make public art out of a phone chain.
Capricorn
You are extremely lost in the neighborhood in a pink cloud on a grey bike. You’ve been learning the same stitch for weeks and the technique is not getting tighter. Despite this, you still have a lot to say. And the platform welcomes you. Admit publicly to a flaw. It may cause some backlash, but follow the path of the influence gained.
Aquarius
You keep losing your wallet, and you have the locksmith on speed dial. You need to eat something hearty, but you keep reaching for the same soup. Find security in your philosophies today. Send a long gmail to an ex-collaborator with your latest manifesto. When they reply positively (even if only in yr mind), you’ll step again onto solid ground.
Pisces
The blue light glasses you ordered on (not) Amazon are coming in the mail, and while you wait, you will need to borrow someone's pair. Who do you want to share with? Who belongs at your desk? Your table? Your home? Who finds their way home in your collage? Who will be there when eventuality takes over?
