This is the time to deconstruct everything that no longer serves you, to pull it apart and look at its components, so that you can more easily release it all. The things in your life that are out of balance become amplified,so you can see them. This is a time for details, to get into…

What’s Going On?
We just had New Moon in Aquarius and, with it, Chinese New Year – Year of the Water Dragon. Mars is going retrograde in Virgo. The largest solar storm since 2005 is hitting the planet. Mwop mwop mwop mwop. Translation: Change! Big big change! Unsettled feelings, wonky electronics, challenges, facing our fears. I said it…
Are You Hibernating Yet?
We area little over a week from Mercury Retrograde, and the moon is waning. I’m already feeling the effects to the retrograde. This is a quiet time, great for contemplation, tying up loose ends, and evaluating where you are right now; it’s also great for cleaning out the closets or the attic! Bear in mind…
A Short Note on New Moon in Scorpio
This new moon (today) in Scorpio is about alchemy – boiling things down to their essence, transforming and transmuting, fermentation… So, amongst all the other things I’ve been working on today, I am boiling down the rose hips I harvested this week. It wasn’t until just now that I realized it was more thematic than…
September’s New Moon
Tonight, we will be gathering, as we do almost every New Moon, to clear the way and set our intentions for the coming cycle. Having done a bunch of writing for tonight, I thought I would share some of the information here. September is always an intense month. Numerologically, it is the apex of whatever…
What’s Going On?
Interesting energy going on right now. People are rigid, being cranky, edgy, or stubborn. Everyone wants change. Communication isn’t working particularly well. Things feel… stuck. Oh look, there’s a Mercury Retrograde about to start, we’re in a New Moon, and there’s solar storms hitting our atmosphere! I write about Mercury Retrograde all the time (no,…
New Moon & Partial Solar Eclipse
So many people I’m talking to feel overwhelmed and exhausted, myself included. I knew we had an astrological event today, so I did some checking around, both on the web and with Spirit, and this is what I came up with: The New Moon itself is in Cancer, which is an emotional sign. One of…
My Brain Is In Retrograde
Sometimes, it’s really challenging to write about current astrological events when those events are happening (or looming), because it makes my head all muddled. This is one of those times. We’re moving into a series of three eclipses, the first one being on Wednesday in conjunction with the New Moon, and the last one being…
First Quarter Moon of Forgiveness
This First Quarter Moon may find you, and those around you, sensitive today. You may be easily rattled, or take things more personally than you need to, or just want to hide under the covers. Remember that those around you are feeling that way too, and that things can escalate quickly in those situations if…
First Quarter Moon
Many people focus on the Full Moon, and some focus on the New Moon (my favorite), but few people focus on the Quarter Moons. In a channeling class back in January, we were advised by Spirit to start focusing on the Quarter Moons. Quarter Moons are a time of balance, the half-way point between the…
The Energies this New Moon
(Excerpted from tonight’s New Moon Gathering Ritual): There’s a lot going on right now. We have some play between Saturn and Jupiter that causes us to look to the lessons of the past. We have a Mercury Retrograde in Aries, which can be trying. Aries asks us to dash forward and try new things with…
Shifting Energies
What’s going on? People are feeling out of sorts, a lot of people are getting sick, people are driving even more unconsciously than usual, everyone’s tired… Well, energetically, we have a lot on our plates. Tonight is a New Moon in Pisces, and there are actually 6 planets in Pisces, including Uranus… What the heck…
