I wanted to share this with y'all. After publishing How the Grand Cross Might Affect YOU, I called one of my best friends for a chat. It had been about two or three weeks since we last talked. Halfway through the conversation, I said this to her: "Although a lot of things have shifted and… Continue reading How the Grand Cross is ALREADY Affecting Me

How the Grand Cross Might Affect YOU
A Grand Cross (or Grand Square) consists of four planets, each 90 degrees from the next. As such, the corners sit in every third sign, which means they share cardinality. In the latter half of April, the Grand Cross we’ll experience is a Cardinal Cross since each corner will occupy one of the four Cardinal… Continue reading How the Grand Cross Might Affect YOU

The Last Few Moments Before…
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.

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. Some people do not want to make the smallest decisions without consulting the cards. Others think they are the work of the Devil. [I actually had someone say that to me… Continue reading It’s in the Cards

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

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

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
