This July, we move into Eclipse Season. The last eclipses we had were in January-February. We’ve got 2 solar eclipses (7/12, 8/11) this summer, and one lunar eclipse (7/27). The lunar eclipse will be the longest total lunar eclipse of the century. Eclipses are generally associated with beginnings and endings, and always herald a change….

Neptune Retrograde: Reassess Your Spiritual Practice!
Neptune, planet of inner exploration, creativity, and spirituality is going retrograde on June 18th until 11/24). Of course, he’s retrograde about half the year, every year, so this is not a cause for panic. Honestly, nothing astrological is ever a cause for panic, so if someone is giving you fear-based messaging about astrology, ignore them….
Astrology heads up for end of June
June 26 to July 10 will be an important few weeks. Here’s how to make the most of it!
New Moon in Taurus – Not What You’d Expect
Things may start getting (even more) unstable this week.
Full Moon in Scorpio
This really is one of the more introverted Full Moons. Spend time journaling, go sit under a tree and listen to what your heart has to say, and/or clean out your closet.
Empowerment
Empowerment is the key to transformation. Are you ready to be truly powerful?
Some unsettling energy going on – What to do with it?
Saturn is in Capricorn, which has the effect of forcing us to be present and in the moment. On March 8th, Jupiter went retrograde in Scorpio. Jupiter is generally expansive and is very tied to our beliefs. Scorpio is all about transformation. Also on March 8, the shadow of Mercury Retrograde in Aries began (actual…
Rainy Full Moon
I am inordinately excited about the timing of weather in Southern California this week. Thursday will be both a Full Moon and raining, which affords me a rare opportunity. I have talked before in this blog about the moon (and occasional solar) waters I make, but there hasn’t been much opportunity to do it with…
Oh, that wacky sky energy…

A comet returns, suggesting some interesting events

This is no ordinary comet. 96P/Machholz has a strange chemical composition that has prompted astronomers to wonder if it comes from another star system. Moreover, it is linked to a complicated network of debris streams criss-crossing the…
Echoes, Water, and Fire: The Full Moon in Pisces
We are approaching Autumnal Equinox, when the world hangs in perfect balance, out of time, for an instant. As October’s Full Moon is close to the Equinox, and is therefore the Harvest Moon, this is the Barley Moon, It more temperate climes, it marks the beginning of the corn harvest and when we dry herbs….
The Crescendo of the Year (from September’s newsletter)
September, as I say every year, is the numerological crescendo of the year; whatever theme or energy you have been working with this year will be loudest in September. Universally, 2017 is a “1” year, a time of new beginnings. Your personal experience with 2017 may be different. What have been the loudest themes for…
