Weekly World Wrap-Up: May 18–24, 2025

Cancer, coups, and golden domes - this week, power cracked and the truth spoke louder.

May 25, 2025

This week, the headlines didn’t just raise eyebrows,
they pulled back the veil.

A president’s cancer diagnosis cracked open questions of truth and legacy.
A media titan walked away mid-broadcast.
A war criminal talked peace while allies prepared for war.
And beneath it all, the earth groaned - through tornadoes, floods, and fire.

From Trump’s golden missiles to Harvard’s quiet revolt,
from white genocide myths to Medicare cuts wrapped in PR sparkle,
this wasn’t a normal news cycle.

It was a karmic echo chamber.
A week where reality bent and the mask of civility slipped.

If you felt disbelief, whiplash, deep grief,
or a strange sense of calm - trust it.
You’re not out of sync.
You’re in resonance.

Because the planets aren’t just turning.
They’re testifying.

Saturn crossed the threshold into Aries.
Pluto stirred the tectonics of power.
And under a full moon on the rise, truth found its volume again.

This isn’t just a wrap-up.
It’s a reckoning.

So I’ve traced the headlines. Mapped the transits. Held a mirror to the week’s chaos and asked: what are we really being shown?

Because it’s not just about who said what.
It’s about what we choose to see now, and what we refuse to unsee.

Let’s begin.

**The cosmic insights shared here are mapped to the real movements of the heavens during the past week.**

🇺🇸 Biden’s Health Crisis and the Book That Broke the Spell

Former President Joe Biden announced this week that he has been diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer, with metastasis to the bones and a Gleason score of 9. While doctors say the cancer is hormone-sensitive and manageable, the timing has raised eyebrows, coming just five months after he left office, and coinciding with the release of Original Sin, the explosive new book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson.

The book alleges that Biden’s cognitive and physical decline was well known within his inner circle, but carefully hidden from the public throughout his presidency. Now, a growing number of Americans are wondering how such an aggressive cancer could emerge so soon after regular White House checkups reported no signs of illness. Was something missed? Or was something downplayed in service of political optics?

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
We’re in the early days of a collective reckoning. The gods of time (Saturn) and truth (Neptune) are colliding with the storylines of power. Hidden decline - whether in bodies, governments, or institutions - can no longer be staged behind polished curtains. This isn’t just about Biden. It’s about the systems that prop up weakened figures and the silence we’re trained to accept in exchange for perceived stability. I wrote more about this earlier in the week in my post, Biden Revealed: The Myth We Protected, The Truth We Concealed

❤️ Heart Guidance:
None of this is about casting stones; it’s about facing the hard truth that even leaders we admire might shield us from realities they think we can’t bear. But when silence replaces truth, trust erodes. If you feel disillusioned right now, you’re not alone. It’s painful to admit we were misled, even if the motive was protection. But love doesn’t require perfection; it requires truth. Let your grief be grief. Let your anger be sacred. We’re being asked to grow up together and start choosing leaders who serve the people, not the narrative. This is the moment we stop accepting stagecraft as leadership and begin the long walk back to transparency.

⚖️ Trump’s Threats Echo at the Supreme Court

President Trump’s rhetoric took a sharper, more dangerous turn this week as he issued what many interpreted as veiled threats toward the U.S. Supreme Court. In a public message to Chief Justice John Roberts, he wrote: “STOP NATIONWIDE INJUNCTIONS NOW, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE”, warning that failure to act would lead to “very serious trouble.” Legal experts quickly flagged the language as an attempt to intimidate the judiciary.

Just last year, at a July 2024 rally in Pennsylvania, Trump condemned people who criticized the Court, saying they “should be put in jail,” and that such dissent “should be illegal.” Now, in 2025, he’s the one issuing ultimatums. The irony would be laughable, if it weren’t so chilling.

Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner described the Supreme Court as appearing “intimidated” and “scared,” raising urgent concerns about the erosion of judicial independence. This isn’t just political theater anymore; it’s institutional pressure with existential stakes.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
As Trump threatens the Court he once said should be above criticism, the cosmos mirrors the contradiction. Saturn has just entered Aries, confronting false authority and demanding accountability. For Trump, it’s a karmic reckoning - Saturn now begins a yearlong pressure campaign on his natal Mars and Saturn, testing the limits of power built on intimidation.

Chief Justice Roberts, too, is under fire. Pluto is activating his Sun and Chiron in Aquarius, forcing him to reckon with the soul of the institution he leads. And the Supreme Court itself is approaching a cosmic showdown: with Saturn soon opposing its natal Saturn and Uranus in Leo, the Court’s integrity is under review, not just by the public, but by time itself.

This isn’t just politics. It’s a spiritual trial of justice, legacy, and truth.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If your faith in fairness feels cracked, don’t look away. Moments like this aren’t just civic; they’re soul-deep. Justice needs witnesses. Democracy needs truth-tellers. The Court may be shaken, but you are not powerless. Let this moment remind you: silence is complicity, but clarity is power. Truth still matters. And so do the hands that hold the law to the light.

⚔️ Israel Prepares Strike on Iran’s Nuclear Sites

Tensions surged this week as intelligence reports revealed that Israel is actively preparing for a potential military strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. While the U.S. under President Trump continues to signal a willingness to negotiate a new nuclear deal with Tehran, Israel appears unwilling to wait. The move has sparked fears of a wider regional conflict and underscores the fragile, high-stakes nature of Middle East diplomacy in the current geopolitical climate.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
This is a powder keg moment. Mars in Aries doesn’t bluff - it strikes. It’s igniting Israel’s war-driven Mars in Leo while crossing Iran’s Midheaven, thrusting both nations toward confrontation.

Israel is entering a long karmic cycle as Saturn activates its Mars, Saturn, and Pluto, a militarized identity test. Iran, meanwhile, faces restraint, with Saturn squaring its Mars and exposing cracks beneath the posturing. Pluto in Aquarius is redrawing alliances, and with both charts under pressure, this isn’t just a regional standoff. It’s a battle for influence, survival, and the future shape of global power.

This moment isn’t about deterrence. It’s about destiny.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If the world feels on edge right now, it’s because it is. But you don’t have to be. Let every headline that screams conflict be your reminder to become a keeper of peace in your own sphere. Stay informed, but stay rooted. The world doesn’t just need warriors. It needs witnesses. Be one.

🏛️ Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill' Slashes Medicaid

This week, the House Budget Committee advanced President Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill”, which proposes deep cuts to Medicaid and social programs in order to fund sweeping tax breaks. The move has drawn fierce criticism from Democrats and public health advocates, who warn that millions could lose access to basic care. Supporters frame the bill as a bold reimagining of fiscal priorities; opponents call it class warfare in policy form.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
This isn’t just economic policy. It’s karmic currency. We’re watching a government openly decide what lives are worth, and what suffering is “affordable.” The planets are drawing a sharp line in the sand: structures that abandon the vulnerable will not stand much longer. Saturn in Aries is the spark. Uranus in Taurus is the rebellion.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If you’re feeling weary or furious, you’re not wrong. But you’re also not alone. Every great shift begins when the people remember their worth and their voice. Let this be your reminder: care is not a luxury, and survival is not a partisan issue. You deserve more than crumbs from the table. You were born to build a better one.

📚 Kristi Noem Misfires on ‘Habeas Corpus’

During a Senate hearing this week, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confidently defined habeas corpus as “what allows the president to remove people from the U.S”. Legal scholars and constitutional nerds everywhere collectively facepalmed. In reality, habeas corpus is a bedrock legal principle that protects individuals from unlawful detention. Noem’s flub raises serious questions about how much those in power understand the rights they’re meant to protect.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
This moment of public ignorance landed under Mercury in Taurus, a transit that demands grounded, factual speech. When the planet of thought meets the sign of substance, empty words get caught in the throat. And now, with Saturn in Aries, ignorance in power doesn’t get ignored, it gets burned into collective memory.

Kristi Noem’s natal wound around leadership (Chiron in Aries) is being directly triggered. This isn’t just a viral clip - it’s a karmic checkpoint. Her chart screams charisma without clarity, performance without depth, and the cosmos is done handing out passes for that. Pluto is already reshaping how power is held. Saturn’s now testing who’s actually fit to lead it.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If you’re feeling a quiet panic at the state of leadership, you’re not alone. But here’s the good news: the more these moments go viral, the more the collective wakes up. Knowledge is power, and right now, the cosmos is begging us to remember our rights, and demand that our leaders do, too. Read the fine print. Reclaim your voice.

🛒 Trump vs. Walmart: The Tariff Tension Escalates

President Trump lashed out at Walmart this week after the retailer warned of price hikes in response to the administration’s newly proposed tariffs. Trump urged the company to “absorb the costs,” shortly before announcing a sweeping 50% tariff on European Union imports, set to take effect June 1. Economists are sounding alarms about a looming price surge for U.S. consumers, as trade tensions with Europe teeter on the edge of an economic standoff.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
This isn’t just about imported cheese and cheap TVs. It’s about power, inflation, and the illusion that someone else will always foot the bill. The cosmos is forcing a confrontation between short-term bravado and long-term economic reckoning. Venus in Gemini squaring Saturn in Aries underscores a global clash around value, trade, and responsibility, while Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus continue to destabilize markets and supply chains. Spoiler: the economy doesn’t care about ego.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If you’re feeling uncertain about money or stability right now, trust that you’re not imagining it - the field is shaky. But there’s strength in clarity. Ask yourself: what do I actually need, and what have I been told to want? Reground in what matters. The world may be playing economic chicken, but you don’t have to.

⚖️ Ukraine and Russia Exchange Hundreds of Prisoners

In a surprising gesture of cooperation, Ukraine and Russia carried out a major prisoner exchange this week, each releasing 390 individuals as part of a planned “1000-for-1000” swap. The first phase took place in Turkey, facilitated by international intermediaries. While the war rages on, this moment of human reprieve offered a flicker of light amid the darkness.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
This exchange unfolded during the early days of the Sagittarius Full Moon portal, a lunation devoted to truth, justice, and freedom. But it wasn’t just lunar energy at play.

Ukraine’s natal Moon was directly activated by the Full Moon, illuminating the nation’s emotional core and calling forward a moment of collective mercy and global connection. This wasn’t just strategy - it was soul. Russia’s chart, meanwhile, is under longer-term pressure. Saturn in Aries now forms a tense angle to Russia’s Saturn in Aquarius, challenging its control structures and testing whether strength can coexist with accountability. Pluto in Aquarius is also beginning to oppose Russia’s Leo Ascendant, gradually forcing a transformation of its global identity and how power is wielded, or released.

This isn’t a peace treaty, but it is a frequency shift. A subtle karmic opening. Saturn in Aries is teaching that strength isn’t domination, it’s decision. And Pluto in Aquarius is demanding that even old empires evolve, or erode.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If you’ve lost faith in the possibility of mercy in war, let this remind you: even the coldest conflicts can thaw, if only for a breath. And sometimes, that breath is everything. Keep your heart open, even when the world feels closed. Light still finds its way through the cracks.

🌍 Trump Presses South Africa on ‘White Genocide’ Claims

In a tense diplomatic exchange, President Trump confronted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa with videos alleging a so-called “white genocide.” Ramaphosa firmly rejected the narrative, calling it misinformation and reiterating that South Africa’s crime crisis affects all communities. “I’m sorry I don’t have a plane to give you,” Ramaphosa reportedly quipped, referring to Trump’s recent acceptance of a $400 million luxury jet from Qatar. which has raised bipartisan concerns over legality, ethics, and foreign influence. The moment laid bare not just Trump’s ongoing fixation with conspiracy narratives, but the dangerous export of American culture wars into global diplomacy.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
This encounter unfolded just as the Sun entered Gemini, the sign of media spin, competing truths, and performative speech. This was textbook: a headline-grabbing claim built on racial mythos, ego, and projection. But the cosmos isn’t buying it.

Saturn in Aries pressuring Trump’s chart creates a karmic check on power plays that confuse bravado with leadership. Pluto in Aquarius has begun its slow opposition to his Mars, signaling a prolonged reckoning with his authoritarian tendencies, especially those cloaked in nationalism. All this while the U.S. chart is approaching a Saturn-Chiron conjunction in Aries, reopening foundational wounds around race, identity, and the limits of power in a so-called democracy.

Cyril Ramaphosa is navigating his own astro-storm. Pluto is squaring his identity, forcing transformation under pressure. His retort wasn’t just clever, it was the restraint of a leader under ancestral weight. And South Africa is having its voice tested. As the Sun crossed its natal Mars, the nation was cosmically called to reclaim narrative control. Pluto’s ongoing square to its Sun-Moon signals a coming era where truth must outlast distortion.

This wasn’t just a gaffe. It was a karmic flashpoint, where propaganda met planetary truth, and power was forced to reveal its shadow.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If this moment made you feel the heat of old wounds reopening - colonialism, white nationalism, propaganda - let yourself feel it. But don’t let it consume you. Instead, remember: truth doesn’t shout. It doesn’t need to. And real power doesn’t rely on fear to speak - it relies on justice. Stay rooted in that.

💳 U.S. Loses Final AAA Credit Rating

In a sobering blow to the nation's financial credibility, Moody’s downgraded the U.S. credit rating from AAA to AA1 this week, citing spiraling debt and unsustainable interest payments. This marks the loss of the last top-tier rating from the three major agencies, signaling deep concern over America's long-term fiscal health. The downgrade could increase borrowing costs and send shockwaves through both domestic and global markets.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
The downgrade isn’t just a Moody’s opinion, it’s Pluto’s judgment. The U.S. has reached the karmic payback point of decades of empire, debt expansion, and illusion-based growth. The AAA rating was a crown. The crown just fell. And Saturn is watching.

This isn’t just a financial headline - it’s a spiritual invoice. With Pluto in Aquarius, the age of accountability isn’t just coming - it’s here. And it’s not impressed by credit scores.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If this news stirred fear, breathe into it. You are not your government’s debt, nor your credit score. This is a collective detox - a deep soul audit of what we’ve called wealth. When false currencies collapse, true value rises. Be one of the ones who holds real worth, not borrowed illusions. Build your life on truth, not trend.

📺 CBS News Chief Resigns Amid Internal Turmoil

Wendy McMahon, President and CEO of CBS News, resigned this week amid a political and corporate crossfire. As CBS’s parent company Paramount Global pushes through a controversial merger with Skydance Media - requiring federal approval - Donald Trump is simultaneously suing CBS for $20 billion, claiming they deceptively edited a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris (a 90-minute chat cut to fit a 60-minute show). Sources indicate McMahon may have resisted efforts to settle the lawsuit, citing journalistic integrity. Her resignation, alongside 60 Minutes executive producer Bill Owens, signals an internal resistance: not everyone is willing to trade truth for approval. The timing exposes a deeper battle between press freedom, corporate influence, and political power plays.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
This isn’t just a media shakeup. It’s Pluto in Aquarius ripping the mask off institutional power. When leaders resign rather than stay complicit, we’re seeing Saturn in Aries activate a new kind of courage - the kind that walks out rather than sells out. Power is being tested not just by who holds it, but by who refuses to wield it unethically.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
In a world where truth is for sale, integrity is an act of rebellion. If you’ve felt disillusioned by media or leadership lately, take heart, because clarity starts with conscience. Let this be your reminder: walking away can be a form of truth-telling. And sometimes the quietest exit says the loudest thing.

💰 $5 Million for Babbitt’s Family - Nothing for Officers

This week, the Trump administration quietly reached a $4.95 million settlement with the family of Ashli Babbitt, the woman fatally shot by Capitol police while storming the U.S. Capitol on January 6. The payout has ignited fierce debate: not only does it come without public explanation, but it also starkly contrasts with the lack of compensation or recognition for the officers injured that day. For many, it feels like history being rewritten in real-time.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
This verdict surfaced under a waning Moon in Aquarius and Saturn still in the final degrees of Pisces - the sign of illusions, sacrifice, and collective grief. With Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, we’re seeing an attempt to redefine public memory and turn rebellion into martyrdom. Saturn in late Pisces asks: What truths are we still refusing to face? And what collective illusions are we funding?

This wasn’t just a settlement - it was a symbolic transaction. A payout that seeks to rewrite the past while Saturn’s still sweeping the fog. But the fog is lifting with Saturn now in Aries. And when it does, the karmic audit begins.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If this makes your stomach turn, you’re not alone. This is one of those moments where the lie is loud, but the truth is steady. Stay anchored. Justice isn’t always immediate, but it is inevitable. And your clarity - your refusal to forget what that day was - matters more than ever. Don’t let the rewriting succeed.

🗣️ Bernie Sanders Calls Democrats “Threat to Democracy"

In a blistering podcast interview, Senator Bernie Sanders accused Democratic Party leaders of betraying their base and “rigging” the primary process. He argued that the party no longer represents working-class Americans and warned that its failures are contributing to the erosion of democracy. While some dismissed the remarks as a parting shot from a disillusioned elder, others saw them as a truth bomb too big to ignore.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
This blast of truth from Bernie landed under a waning Moon, as Saturn lingered at the final degrees of Pisces - the final karmic sweep before entering Aries, where it will soon confront the Democratic Party’s core: its Moon, Pluto, Jupiter, and North Node in Aries. That’s not just celestial timing - that’s a cosmic reckoning. Mars in Aries also triggered the Party’s emotional Moon and Bernie’s personal Moon-Mars combo, making his words both personal and prophetic.

In his own chart, Bernie’s Virgo Sun and North Node remind us that his mission has always been service through truth. And now, with Saturn about to enter his 6th House of purpose and duty, he’s not just critiquing a party - he’s fulfilling a soul contract. This was not a tantrum. It was a transmission. A final act of service.

All this while Pluto retrograde in Aquarius is watching how institutions respond to truth, and taking notes.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If you’ve felt disillusioned, not just with politics but with the stories we’ve been told about progress, you’re not bitter - you’re discerning. Bernie’s words cracked open something deeper than party lines. They called out the soul of a system that’s forgotten who it’s meant to serve. Let this moment remind you: truth doesn’t belong to the loudest voice or the winning side. It belongs to those who serve it, even when it costs them. You don’t need to pick a side - you need to pick your clarity. Let discomfort refine you. Let it guide you back to what’s real.

🛡️ Trump Unveils ‘Golden Dome’ Missile Defense Plan

President Trump announced a $175 billion “Golden Dome” missile defense initiative this week, positioning it as America’s answer to Israel’s Iron Dome. The plan promises sweeping aerial protection through advanced intercept systems, though many defense experts question its feasibility and price tag. Critics also noted the optics: the name and rollout felt more theatrical than strategic, raising eyebrows about whether this is real policy or campaign spectacle.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
In the age of Pluto in Aquarius, security theater won’t cut it. This moment isn’t about missiles, it’s about myth-making. Leaders who sell protection without addressing root instability will be exposed. Saturn in Aries wants real courage, not golden distractions.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If this headline left you unsettled or numb, listen to that. We’re not meant to normalize billion-dollar war toys rolled out like movie trailers. But we are meant to rise above fear-based leadership. Be the one who sees through the glitter to the truth. Real peace isn’t built from defense - it’s built from presence, principle, and people who remember what matters.

🎓 Harvard Blocks Trump’s Ban on International Students

Harvard University scored a legal victory this week after a federal judge blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to bar international students from enrolling. The policy, widely criticized as xenophobic and unconstitutional, would have forced thousands of students to leave the country or face deportation. Harvard’s swift legal action - and the court’s restraining order - sent a clear message: not even Trump’s executive will can override the rule of law.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
Education is sacred terrain in the Aquarian age. As Pluto begins reshaping collective systems, universities become battlegrounds for ideological control. Harvard’s stand isn’t just about students - it’s about sovereignty over knowledge, and who gets to belong in the story of the future.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If this gave you a glimmer of hope, let it grow. In a world drowning in division, this was a moment of alignment between truth and action. We don’t just need smart minds - we need open doors. Let this remind you that justice still breathes. And sometimes, the system works.

⚓ Mexican Navy Ship’s Fatal Collision with Brooklyn Bridge

On May 18, a Mexican Navy training ship collided with the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City, snapping all three of its masts. The devastating accident resulted in 2 fatalities and 19 injuries among the 277 people aboard. The incident, which occurred during a diplomatic goodwill tour, has raised serious questions about oversight, maritime safety, and the symbolic costs of a globalized military pageant gone wrong.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
This wasn’t just an accident. It was a rupture in the narrative. When Neptune still veils in Pisces and Pluto shakes foundations in Aquarius, illusions of control give way to sobering reality. A ship meant to represent unity instead became a mirror for fragility, and that matters.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If this story made you pause, don’t push past it. There’s something sacred in slowing down for the grief of strangers. These were lives, dreams, families. In an age obsessed with power and performance, may we not forget the human heart behind every headline. Mourn. And then move gently forward.

⚖️ Suicide Bombing Kills 20 at Somali Recruitment Center

Also on May 18, a suicide bomber targeted a military recruitment center in Mogadishu, Somalia, killing at least 20 people, 15 of them army recruits. The militant group Al-Shabaab claimed responsibility, continuing its campaign of terror against Somalia’s fragile government. This attack comes amid rising regional instability and international concern over the group’s resurgence.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
The bombing unfolded under an Aquarius Moon, highlighting collective trauma and the tragic detachment that can set in during long-standing conflict. Aquarius is the sign of society, systems, and rebellion, but its shadow is emotional coldness. The deeper story here isn’t just about one group’s extremism, it’s about a region long abandoned by global empathy. As Saturn begins its trek through Aries, it presses the world to confront not just violent actors, but the systemic fractures that allow despair to breed. The war in Somalia is karmic fallout from centuries of colonial rupture and modern neglect.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If this story passed by like just another headline, pause. These lives mattered. And the ripple of grief stretches further than we can see. You may not be able to end the violence, but you can honor the humanity in every loss. Light a candle. Say a name. Refuse to let numbness win.

✝️ Pope Leo XIV Inaugurated as Global Eyes Turn to Rome

Another major event on May 18 - Pope Leo XIV was officially inaugurated in a solemn ceremony attended by world leaders. The new pontiff, known for his theological conservatism and diplomatic clarity, delivered an inaugural mass calling for unity, peace, and the "reawakening of moral conscience." With the Catholic Church at a crossroads - politically, spiritually, and globally - his rise is being closely watched for signals of what comes next.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
The inauguration of Pope Leo XIV is not just a changing of the guard. It is a collision course between old power and spiritual accountability. Saturn’s Aries cycle demands leadership that acts, not performs. Pluto’s Aquarius journey demands systemic transparency.

Pope Leo XIV arrives not to preserve the Catholic church's mystique, but to confront its disconnection from truth, its abuse of power, and its failure to evolve. Looking at the church’s chart, the next few years will likely see revelations about finances, cover-ups, or past harm, doctrinal clashes (especially on gender, sexuality, or justice) and a reshaping of the Church's global role, with sharp internal division.

This isn’t just a new pope - it’s a spiritual regime shift.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If you’ve felt distant from faith institutions, this is your reminder: you are the temple now. You don’t need a cathedral to commune with the sacred. The sacred has always lived in your breath, your body, your moral compass. This new era may reveal what was false in the old, but let it also awaken what’s real in you. Don’t wait for a Pope to tell you who you are. You already know. Now walk it.

🌊 “1-in-500-Year” Flooding Submerges New South Wales

Catastrophic floods tore through Australia’s Mid North Coast and Hunter Valley this week, triggered by a slow-moving low-pressure system. Five people have died, more than 170 rescues were undertaken, and entire towns remain underwater. Officials are calling it a “1-in-500-year” weather event. With both state and federal governments activating disaster funds, the crisis is another stark reminder of Australia’s growing climate vulnerability.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
As Saturn prepared to enter Aries - a fire sign - it met the unprocessed grief of water still held in Pisces. The skies are not punishing us - they’re reflecting us. This is climate karma made visible. Saturn in Aries forces accountability, while Neptune still in Pisces floods whatever hasn’t been faced, literally and symbolically. These waters are not just rain; they are reckoning. We’re not just being warned - we’re being summoned.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If your heart is heavy, let it be. Mourning is not weakness, it’s wisdom. Hold space for those who’ve lost everything. And ask yourself: where can I live more in harmony with the Earth? This isn’t about fear. It’s about coming home to the truth that we are not separate from nature - we are nature. And nature is speaking.

🌪️ Tornadoes Tear Through the U.S. Heartland

Between May 18 and 21, over 100 tornadoes ripped across the Great Plains and Mid-South, including multiple EF3 storms. Entire communities were shredded, more than 115,000 homes lost power, and at least 10 people were injured. This outbreak marks one of the most intense tornado events of the year, underscoring growing fears about climate unpredictability in the age of extremes.

🪐 Cosmic Insight:
With Pluto digging through the roots of outdated systems in Aquarius, even the skies are joining the call for change. These weren’t just winds. They were wake-ups. Saturn in Aries is burning through collective denial, while Uranus in Taurus keeps pushing back on our illusion of control. When air and earth clash, the message is clear: balance or be broken.

❤️ Heart Guidance:
If this news rattled you, that’s okay. You’re meant to feel it. Let it remind you of how fast life can shift, and how vital it is to be present, grounded, and ready. Check on your people. Store water. Make a plan. But more than that, tune in. The Earth is not angry. She’s alerting us. And love listens.

What to Watch For: The Weeks Ahead

The reckoning gets personal.
Saturn is in Aries now, and it’s not theoretical. This week, the consequences begin to hit skin. Leaders face their own fire. Movements fracture. Old alliances splinter under the weight of unspoken resentment. Expect abrupt exits, bold confrontations, and “I can’t stay silent anymore” moments.
Full Moon revelations hit hard and public.
With a Sagittarius Full Moon approaching, truth will burst through the cracks. Leaked documents, unfiltered speeches, and mask-off moments are likely. Watch for moral grandstanding that backfires, and secrets that don’t stay buried. Some will break down. Others will break free.
Whispers become roars.
Pluto in Aquarius is still slow but surgical. But this week? Mars fans the flames. That means quiet resistance movements, fringe voices, and buried truths may suddenly get a megaphone. The system starts to sweat when the ignored find their voice.
Watch the youth - and the rage.
Aries rules the young, the warriors, the bold. This week could see protests, youth-led action, or new leaders rising through rebellion, not permission. But hot heads may also boil over. Fires (literal or figurative) may flare. Stay grounded, not reactive.
Markets in flux, currency conversations shift.
As Taurus season ends and Gemini rises, expect volatility in money, crypto, and global trade. Tariff wars, corporate clashes, or new financial rules are likely. The economic narrative is mutating, and someone’s bluff may be called.
Spiritual leaders under the lens.
Last week’s papal shift opened the floodgates. This week, watch for scrutiny of spiritual “brands,” hidden abuses, or stories of hypocrisy from those who preach purity. The Age of Aquarius has no patience for performative piety.
And always: stay in the body.
Uranus in Taurus keeps the Earth talk loud. The nervous system is still the best oracle. Listen to your gut. Rest if you’re spinning. Move when you’re frozen. The body knows what the brain resists: the old world is ending. But you’re still here. For a reason.

The world didn’t just rage this week - it clarified.
Through cancer diagnoses and courtroom tension.
Through ego parades and flooded streets.
Through the thud of tornadoes and the silence of resignation.

We watched power try to disguise itself in gold domes and billion-dollar policies.
We saw truth weaponized, loyalty fractured, and fear wearing the mask of control.
And still, something truer broke through.

Not in the headlines.
In the space between them.

A reckoning is here, not just for leaders, but for all of us.
A call to ask: What am I aligning with? What am I defending? Who am I becoming?

Because the systems are still spinning.
But your soul is still still.

And that stillness? That ache? That urge to scream or retreat or transmute?
It’s the sacred pulse of awakening.
You’re not too sensitive for this world; you’re attuned to the one that’s coming.

So this week, let yourself feel it all.
The fire. The fog. The flickers of fierce hope.

And then, let that feeling shape your actions.
Not into collapse.
But into coherence.

You are the steady note beneath the static.
The one who remembers what’s real when the spectacle forgets.

So walk forward clear-eyed.
Hold your center.
And trust this:

You are not here to survive the storm.
You are here to remind the storm of its purpose.

Let that be your compass.

(And if you need some anchoring, come find me in the Daily Lighthouse. I’ll be there, shining each day with you.)

See you next Sunday - until then, stay kind, calm and curious.

If this message steadied your heart today, feel free to share it with someone who might need a lighthouse too. The new world rises one steady heart at a time.
