Have you noticed how the final few moments before an event contain that poignant feeling of anticipation and tension? You are five and your parents are tucking you in on Christmas Eve.

A Quick Trip
So, I just got back from Africa, by way of Europe, and it was an AMAZING trip! Oh, you didn’t know I was going? Well neither did I. The whole trip lasted less than 18 hours. For the record, my body didn’t travel anything more than about 10 blocks, but my heart and my spirit soared!… Continue reading A Quick Trip
Off the Record
I think my subconscious has a funnier sense of humor than I do. This silly caricature was inspired by last night's dream. ... Imagine that life was lived on a record…you know, an old LP. This is what it might be like: Pisces enjoys living life on the edge. It is only natural that they… Continue reading Off the Record
It’s in the Cards
“Will I succeed? Is it in the cards?” I can’t decide what is more interesting: the Tarot itself or how people react to them.

Today, the high is supposed to be 79. I equate Astrology to the weather and if you don’t like the way things have… Continue reading Breaking Out
A Beating Heart
The (Zodiac) month of idealized love is over, and now we are within an expression of love that is very much human. In Alignment and Synchronization, I wrote how Aquarius—the water bearer—is the ruler of the 11th house—the house of ideals and aspirations. By this association, it is perfectly appropriate for Valentine’s Day, the celebration of… Continue reading A Beating Heart
An Orienting Force
A thought about Astrology that frustrates me is the idea that good times and struggles are fated...determined by the stars. We all hope we are destined for greatness and fear that we are destined for failure. Well one day last week, in response to my frustration, I heard this message from spirit: Astrology does not… Continue reading An Orienting Force

My girlfriend is so sensitive right now, everything I say sets her off. When someone is sensitive, they have an acute ability to perceive. When they are… Continue reading Sensitivity
