Astrology and Love: Aries Season, and How to Find Love in 2026 with Jill Jardine. Your Astrology Dating Guide for Spring 2026

What does astrology say about love right now—and how can you use this moment to finally find love, take action in dating, and stop repeating old patterns?

In this powerful episode of Shot At Love, Kerry Brett sits down with astrologer and psychic healer Jill Jardine to break down the astrology of love, dating, and relationships during one of the most pivotal seasons of 2026. If you’ve been feeling stuck in modern dating, questioning your path to finding love, or wondering when things will finally shift—this is your moment.

Because, according to this astrology love forecast, everything is changing.

After months of emotional heaviness, retrogrades, and reflection, the energy has officially turned. As Jill explains, all planets are now moving direct, creating a rare window for movement, clarity, and momentum—especially when it comes to love and relationships.

This isn’t a “wait for love” season.

This is a take action, find love, and change your dating life season.

April’s Aries energy brings bold, fast-moving momentum into modern dating, pushing you to confront what’s not working and take real action toward finding love. This is the kind of astrology that sparks first dates, bold decisions, and new beginnings—but it also requires awareness.

Because in this phase of astrology and love, people are moving fast.

Which means:

Connections ignite quickly

Attraction builds instantly

But people can also dismiss potential love just as fast

That’s why this episode breaks down how to navigate dating during Aries season without sabotaging your chances of finding real love.

One of the biggest themes in this astrology dating forecast?

A complete shift in tolerance.

People are no longer settling in relationships that don’t align. In today’s dating world, emotional unavailability, mixed signals, and red flags are no longer being ignored—they’re dealbreakers.

This is a season of:

Choosing yourself

Raising your standards

Letting go of misaligned relationships

Creating space to find real, aligned love

And that’s exactly why so many people are either breaking up—or finally breaking through—in their love lives right now.

But timing matters.

This episode walks you through how to work with the astrology of love from April through June so you can actually succeed in dating and relationships:

April is about action and exploration in dating

May brings grounding, stability, and deeper connection

June reveals clarity—showing you who is right for you and who is not

If you’ve been trying to find love, this timeline is everything.

Another major shift in this astrology love forecast is how we communicate and connect. With Uranus entering Gemini, there’s a rapid evolution in dating, communication, and connection.

This impacts:

Dating apps and online dating

Texting and communication patterns

How quickly people form connections

The desire to find aligned, like-minded partners

But there’s a catch in dating.

While people want deeper connection and real love, they’re also becoming more selective—sometimes overly focused on surface-level traits instead of true compatibility.

The key to finding love in this astrology cycle?

Stay open, but stay aligned.

Kerry brings it back to what matters most in dating and relationships:

You have to put yourself in the right rooms to find love.

Because finding love isn’t about luck—it’s about action, energy, and environment.

This episode is your roadmap to navigating modern dating through astrology, understanding the energy of this moment, and finally taking aligned action toward real love.

The biggest takeaway from this astrology and love conversation:

Don’t sit this one out.

Say yes to the date.

Say yes to new opportunities.

Say yes to meeting new people.

Because the energy right now is designed to support finding love, creating connection, and building something real.

And as Kerry always says—

Take your shot.

Because love isn’t about perfect timing. It’s about showing up when the energy is finally aligned.

Love Story takes us inside one of the most iconic and misunderstood relationships of our time—Carolyn Bessette Kennedy and John F. Kennedy Jr., through the lens of someone who knew her personally. This episode offers a rare and intimate look beyond the headlines and into the truth of who Carolyn really was.

Kerry Brett sits down with celebrity writer Jonathan Soroff, who shared a real friendship with Carolyn before and during her rise into the global spotlight. Together, they revisit the 1990s, a time before social media, when mystery still existed—and how that intrigue became part of Carolyn’s allure.

This conversation explores the tension between love and fame, the pressure of constant media attention, and the emotional cost of being in a relationship that the world is obsessed with. Jonathan shares behind-the-scenes stories that reveal Carolyn’s character, her boundaries, and the quiet strength that made her unforgettable.

They also discuss the current cultural fascination with their relationship and what gets lost when real lives are turned into entertainment. It raises important questions about privacy, perception, and the way society projects meaning onto couples we don’t truly know.

At its core, this episode is about more than a famous love story—it’s about understanding the power of boundaries, the importance of self-worth, and why the most compelling relationships aren’t always the most visible.

Kerry Brett closes the episode with dating insights inspired by Carolyn’s approach to love, reminding listeners that attraction grows over time, boundaries set the tone, and the right person will rise to meet you when you hold your value.

Today’s guest is Evan Marc Katz, a trailblazing dating coach who has spent more than two decades helping women understand men and create lasting relationships. Often described as the world’s first dating coach, Evan built his career on one central mission: helping women stop repeating painful dating patterns and start attracting the kind of partner who wants commitment.

Evan shares how his own experiences as a serial dater led him to study relationship dynamics and eventually build a coaching practice devoted to helping women navigate the modern dating landscape. His insights have been featured in major media outlets including CNN, The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal.

During the episode, Kerry and Evan talk about why chemistry alone is not enough to sustain a relationship, how to identify the difference between attraction and compatibility, and why many successful women unknowingly choose partners who are emotionally unavailable.

Evan also discusses the mindset shifts that can transform someone’s dating life, including learning to recognize red flags early, focusing on consistency over intensity, and understanding the qualities that lead to long-term partnership.

If you feel like you’ve done everything right in life but still haven’t found the right relationship, this conversation offers powerful insight into why—and what you can do differently moving forward.

In this episode of Shot@Love, Kerry Brett sits down with author of the popular book Bar Tips by Neil Rogers for a powerful conversation about human connection, dating, and what the hospitality industry can teach us about finding love.

Neil shares how decades behind the bar shaped his understanding of people, respect, and first impressions—and why dating, like bartending, is ultimately a people business. From the importance of a proper greeting to the power of listening more than you speak, this episode explores how small, intentional actions can completely change the way we connect with others.

The conversation dives into transferable skills from hospitality that apply directly to dating, including preparation, punctuality, reading the room, and meeting people where they are. Neil explains why being “right” is overrated, how kindness builds trust, and why showing up without an agenda creates deeper, more authentic connections.

Kerry and Neil also discuss loneliness, modern dating challenges like ghosting, and how technology has made it easier to hide instead of engage. They explore why respect, compassion, and presence are more attractive than perfection—and how confidence grows when we focus less on impressing and more on genuinely connecting.

This episode is a reminder that love doesn’t come from performance or pressure. It comes from listening, kindness, and the courage to be yourself. Whether you’re dating, rebuilding confidence, or simply wanting better connections in your love life or in business, this conversation offers timeless lessons that can change how you show up—for dates, relationships, and life itself.
