Hello, beautiful soul —
If you’re new here, I’m so glad you found your way.
I’m Laura—a psychic medium, intuitive astrologer, and the heart behind Northern Light Lotus.
This space is here to remind you of something gentle but true:
You’re not as off-track, behind, or lost as your fears sometimes whisper.
Even on the days that feel like a mess—or when the path feels foggy—you’re still moving forward just by showing up for yourself.
Here, I share astrology insights that are easy to understand, messages from Spirit that meet you where you are, and honest reminders to help you feel more grounded, more like yourself, and more supported in your everyday life.
Whether you’re a longtime astrology lover or just starting to explore it, you’re in the right place.
There’s no perfect timeline to follow.
No pressure to have it all figured out.
Just real moments, real growth, and a little cosmic light to guide you.
Let’s take a look at what today’s sky is revealing…

Energy Theme of the Day: Quiet Power & Emotional Rebuilding
Today’s sky is buzzing with supportive sextiles, deep healing themes, and a powerful Virgo Moon rising on the Ascendant.
It’s a day that encourages slow, thoughtful progress—perfect for organizing your thoughts, nurturing your body, and rebuilding emotional resilience after recent shakeups.

Key Planetary Highlights
1. Virgo Moon Conjunct Ascendant (Rising):
Your emotions and physical presence are deeply connected today. You may feel extra sensitive to your environment or body, especially with the Moon in analytical Virgo. It’s a great time for mindful movement, decluttering your space, or gently processing lingering emotions. Watch for overthinking or being too self-critical.
2. Mercury Conjunct Chiron (in Aries):
This is powerful for healing through communication—especially around past wounds, miscommunications, or feeling like your voice wasn’t heard. If old emotional pain surfaces, don’t brush it off. You’re being given a cosmic window to rewrite the story with more compassion.
3. Venus Sextile Pluto + Conjunct Neptune & Saturn (in 7th House):
Relationships get a profound makeover today. These aspects stir deep emotional truths and longings for authentic, spiritual, or karmic connections. You may feel called to set boundaries, release an old pattern, or recommit to love in a more grounded way.
4. Jupiter on the Midheaven (MC):
Massive career expansion energy is in the air—especially if you’ve been planting seeds for visibility, teaching, or stepping into your purpose. With Mercury sextile Jupiter, the ideas and words you share now could open doors, especially if you trust your voice.
5. Mars in Leo Opposing Pluto in Aquarius (wide orb but present):
This adds a layer of power dynamics to the mix. Try not to let pride or fear dominate your actions. Mars in Leo wants bold movement, but Pluto says: only if it’s real. If you’re tempted to force something, pull back and reflect—especially in group dynamics or leadership roles.

Zodiac Vibes: What’s Rising to the Surface for You?
Here’s a quick emotional pulse check based on today’s Virgo Moon + major transits:
• Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn):
You’re feeling more grounded today. It’s a good time to plan, clean up, or make steady progress on personal goals. You may also feel more in control emotionally than you have in a while.
• Fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius):
There’s a push-pull between action and reflection. Part of you wants to GO, but Spirit is saying “pause and check your motives.” Especially true for Leo with Mars active.
• Air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius):
Mental energy is high, but you might feel emotionally scattered. Ground yourself by writing things down or using your words to connect instead of escaping.
• Water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces):
You may feel off your game with no inner planets currently in water. That’s okay—Spirit is asking you to lean on your inner structure and trust what you’ve already built.

Spirit’s Message for Today:
“You’re not behind. You’re preparing.”
With the Moon rising and so many healing aspects in the air, today is about reclaiming your emotional balance—not by doing more, but by showing up with presence. Don’t rush clarity. Let it reveal itself moment by moment.
Helpful Tip for Tonight:
Pick one small area of your life to “clean up” or simplify—whether it’s your thoughts, your room, your to-do list, or a lingering convo. Virgo energy loves intentional organization, and tonight supports steady progress over perfection.

Now let’s zoom in a little closer…
Each sign is feeling today’s energy in its own unique way, especially with the Virgo Moon rising and so many healing aspects at play.
Whether you’re craving clarity, connection, or just a bit of comfort, here’s what may be rising to the surface for you—and a little tip to help you ground tonight’s energy with intention:
⸻
Aries
What’s rising for you: Old wounds around not being heard may surface, but today offers a chance to speak your truth more calmly and powerfully than before. Your healing doesn’t need to be loud—it just needs to be real.
Tip for tonight: Write a letter to yourself or someone else (even if you never send it). Let the truth move through you.
⸻
Taurus
What’s rising for you: Your self-worth is being quietly rewritten right now. You’re not who you used to be—and that’s a good thing. The Virgo Moon reminds you that joy can be found in the small, steady wins.
Tip for tonight: Do something that reminds you of your growth—organize a drawer, reflect on a recent decision, or revisit an old journal.
⸻
Gemini
What’s rising for you: You’re in a major growth phase, and it’s okay if things feel scattered. With Jupiter on your Midheaven, your ideas are meant to reach people—but first, they have to settle into you.
Tip for tonight: Pause the scrolling. Create space for your own thoughts by spending 10 quiet minutes with music, nature, or silence.
⸻
Cancer
What’s rising for you: Emotional fatigue might be catching up with you—but this isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s a sign that you’ve been holding a lot. Today’s sky wants you to release some of it.
Tip for tonight: Take a long shower or bath. Imagine it rinsing off other people’s energy, leaving only what’s truly yours.
⸻
Leo
What’s rising for you: You’re building something powerful, but Pluto’s energy is testing your pride. If control, ego, or performance come up today, ask: Am I being real with myself?
Tip for tonight: Light a candle and affirm what you’re ready to release. Sometimes stepping back is the boldest move of all.
⸻
Virgo
What’s rising for you: The Moon is shining right through your emotional body today. Expect heightened sensitivity, body awareness, or old inner child patterns bubbling up. Let it soften you.
Tip for tonight: Say something kind to yourself in the mirror before bed—out loud. You’re listening, even when you don’t realize it.
⸻
Libra
What’s rising for you: You may feel torn between needing rest and wanting to be present for everyone else. But this sky is nudging you inward—it’s time to refill your own cup.
Tip for tonight: Journal your thoughts, but give equal space to what you need, not just what you think or feel.
⸻
Scorpio
What’s rising for you: You’re craving deeper emotional connection, but today is more about clarity than intensity. Who truly aligns with you? What do you actually want in return for your energy?
Tip for tonight: Make a list of who feels safe, warm, and grounding in your life—and who doesn’t. Let that guide your next steps.
⸻
Sagittarius
What’s rising for you: You may feel extra restless today, like your purpose is calling but you can’t hear it clearly. The Virgo Moon wants you to take one grounded step instead of chasing the whole dream.
Tip for tonight: Revisit a goal or idea you put on hold. What’s one simple action you can take this week to bring it back to life?
⸻
Capricorn
What’s rising for you: You’re being asked to loosen your grip a little. There’s strength in allowing—not just achieving. Let this be a night where softness doesn’t mean weakness, but wisdom.
Tip for tonight: Turn off your productivity mindset by setting a “done for today” boundary. Rest is part of your growth.
⸻
Aquarius
What’s rising for you: Pluto’s transformation is real for you. You’re shedding layers you didn’t even know you were carrying. Give yourself time to process, even if no one else sees what you’re healing.
Tip for tonight: Do a small ritual to honor how far you’ve come—a walk under the stars, a whispered thank you, or a playlist that feels like you.
⸻
Pisces
What’s rising for you: You’re in the deep end of emotional waters lately—with Saturn, Neptune, and the North Node all in your corner of the sky. This is a profound time to redefine your boundaries, values, and dreams.
Tip for tonight: Draw or write out what your dream life feels like. Let it come from the soul, not the mind.

Spirit’s Message for Today: Follow Through
As we wrap up today’s check-in, Spirit brought through the Follow Through card—and listen, I felt this one deep.
This card is your nudge (and mine) to stick with what you’ve started.
Not in a hustle-y, perfectionist kind of way—but in the real way.
The way that honors the promises you’ve made to yourself.
The dreams you said you’d give a real shot.
The healing you’ve been working through.
The quiet commitments that maybe no one else even knows about—but matter deeply to you.
For me? The message was clear:
“Get on the dang treadmill tonight.”
And Spirit wasn’t wrong.
Not to punish myself.
Not to prove anything.
But because I made a promise to show up for me.
To move my body.
To take care of my health.
To stop abandoning my own needs just because no one else sees them.
So whatever your version of the treadmill is tonight… show up for it.
You don’t have to go all in.
Just follow through in the smallest, most loving way you can.

Try one of these gentle follow-through tips tonight:
• Keep one small promise you’ve made to yourself (hydrate, stretch, speak kindly to yourself).
• Revisit a plan or goal you’ve been avoiding—not to fix it all, but to take one next step.
• Ask Spirit to walk with you as you take action, especially if you feel unsure.
• Write down one thing you’re proud of yourself for sticking with—even halfway.
⸻
A reflection to carry into your night:
What have I been putting off—not because I’m lazy, but because I’m afraid it won’t be enough?
And how can I follow through in a way that feels kind, not punishing?
You’re not here to get it perfect.
You’re here to grow into the version of you that trusts yourself enough to keep going—even on the slow days.

Final Thoughts & An Invitation
If this message spoke to you, I’d love to hear what you’re choosing to follow through on this week.
And if you’re just finding me for the first time—hi, I’m Laura. I’m a psychic medium and intuitive astrologer, and I share Spirit-led insights like this Monday through Friday here at Northern Light Lotus. Whether you’ve been walking this path for a while or are just starting to explore it—you’re not alone.
You’re always welcome here.
You can book a reading, join my community, or just come back tomorrow.
But whatever you do…
Start. Stay. Show up.
Even if it’s just for 10 minutes.
Even if no one else sees it.
Spirit sees you.
And you’re doing better than you think.
With love, quiet strength, and a little cosmic push to follow through,
Laura | Northern Light Lotus
