I’ve always wondered why people rode rollercoasters. And I remember. I remember when I did."
​- Tank and the Bangas, ​”Rollercoasters”​

That’s the energy of this week’s sky. A moment where pleasure gets tangled up with panic. Where you want the rush and the safety bar. Where the thing that flips your stomach also makes you feel alive.

Venus conjunct Uranus in Gemini is the jolt. The flirtation. The sudden shift in taste, style, connection. You fall in love fast—or fall into something fast that looks like love. And you like it. Even if it knocks you off-center.

Sun trine Juno in water signs, Cancer and Scorpio, adds the craving for depth and the meaning underneath. It’s not just a rollercoaster—you want the photo. The story. Something to hold onto after the ride is over.

✨ The Astrology

• Venus conjunct Uranus in Gemini (July 4)​
  This is sudden infatuation—whether with a person, an idea, a project, or a new aesthetic. You feel it in your body. It’s fun, wild, possibly unserious. Gemini keeps it moving. Uranus doesn’t ask permission. Venus wants to feel something. And you do.
• Sun trine Juno in water signs (July 7)​
  This is the throughline. The part of you that wants to commit, not just chase. It’s about resonance, loyalty, and investing in what feels emotionally true—not just stimulating. Juno contacts can bring entrances to and exits from commitment.

Together, these aspects say: You can love the thrill and still want it to matter.

💡 Real-Life Impact:

• Saying yes to a weird opportunity—and finding a surprising sense of alignment
• Trying something you’d normally avoid—and discovering it feels right
• Feeling torn between chasing the new and returning to something familiar
• Deciding it's time for you and your weird/long-distance/genius boo to 💩 or get off the pot
• Committing to the bit—and wondering if the bit is actually you

This isn’t a week for neat resolutions. It’s a week for staying with the feeling.

🔮 Big Deck Energy: Tarot Card Pull for the Week

Welcome to Big Deck Energy—where I pull a tarot card each week on behalf of our collective to offer insight, reflection, or a much-needed reality check. Think of it as a weekly reset, a moment to pause and take in what’s unfolding. This week, I asked: What’s worth staying curious about—even if it doesn’t feel stable?

Here's what the Tarot had to say: The Queen of Pentacles, reversed.

Stay curious about what happens when you stop trying to hold it all together.

This card points to the places where your systems— financial, physical, dietary—feel depleted or unsustainable. It’s not about failure. It’s about over-functioning. About doing so much for others (or for the performance of “success”) that you lose track of what you actually need.

There may be routines or responsibilities that used to feel grounding but now feel hollow, mechanical, or even punishing. You may be asking: Do I even want this role I’m trying so hard to maintain?

Stay curious about the part of you that wants to opt out.
The part that’s tired. The part that knows something has to change before you can feel whole again.

Even if you’re not ready to rebuild, it’s okay to stop pretending the house isn’t cracking.

There’s wisdom in the emptiness. Stay with it. See what it has to say.
