*+-Some thoughts on this weekend’s astrology: Two big events. Chiron goes retrograde. Mercury goes direct. They are related because they are both happening in such a short span of time. One in Aries, the other in Cancer, two signs (astrologers tell us) that are at odds with each other. Aries […]

*+-A few thoughts on this week’s #astrology – week of July 6, 2020. Follow me on Facebook. Dear monsters, I was going to talk about Chiron going retrograde this week (and I will) or Mercury going direct this week but really I want to talk ECLIPSE AFTERMATH and how my […]
*+-Read me HERE, my meditation on death, my mother, and Santa Muerte I’ve been writing a lot about Chiron lately and here’s one more although I have something else on my mind too – this South Node-Mars conjunction in Aquarius which I admit I had not even noticed until someone […]
*+-I have a new secret chat room on Facebook and we’ve just started talking about Chiron in there (if you want to join us, send me an email. There’s a small monthly fee. If I don’t already know you, I will use the cards to figure out if you’d be a […]
*+-In one of the chat rooms we were talking about healing from past pain versus letting go of the idea of having to heal, needing to heal. That maybe this… compulsion to solve it all, fix it all, causes even more problems sometimes. Behavior though (thinking of my own) can […]
*+-I felt a little overwhelmed when looking at this weekend’s transits. Let’s break it down a little. I want to talk about what’s jumping out at me. Today, September 13th: Venus is trine Neptune. LOVE IS IN THE AIR but Love (Venus) is in Scorpio. As I wrote on Facebook: […]
*+-One thing I did not mention in my video: the New Moon in Virgo and the Sun in Virgo opposing CHIRON, the Wounded Healer. I may address this in another video but for the moment, keep this in mind: No one is out to get you. Really. It’s YOU. You […]
*+-Trying to squeeze out a blog post in the middle of everything — a bunch of workmen are here, disrupting my home (Cancer) and my routine (Virgo). In short, they are disrupting ME. With a few spare minutes, let’s see what’s up in the sky: Mars square Uranus is definitely […]
*+-Yes, the New Moon in Cancer may be overshadowed by the good news of Saturn going direct, as well as an unpleasant Venus Chiron aspect HOWEVER if you are a mid-degree Cancer baby, smile smile smile because this one is for you 🙂 By the way, Venus Chiron to me feels […]
*+-Sometimes I feel my entire motivation in this lifetime is to heal. Myself. And I try to help others along the way as best I can. To heal the physical and emotional body because really they are the same thing. I do not believe that illness or “conditions” are punishment […]
*+-I miss the desert. And yet I liked the way my skin was suddenly softer when I came home 🙂 And less red. We’d been chain-smoking indoors. I finally unpacked my suitcase this morning. Even clothes I didn’t wear smelled like smoke. I do not know where I belong. I […]
*+-I’m on vacation, in Las Vegas, and the (neon) signs are everywhere. The dental floss I brought with me – Desert Essence. The significance of this week is not lost on me and I can’t share all of it here – too private for that, too many stories within stories, […]
*+-So I spent the morning in pain. Took about 4 hours to not be in pain. Pulled a muscle in my back and I think it… was spasming for that long. I could not lie down or sit in any position… I noticed that mild pacing was the best I could […]
*+-Okay, in the Creativity class going on now, I told the gals this: “Your life is the frame and the painting. You really do have a say. About both of them. You can work together with fate. That is magic.” And I believe it. Do you? I want them to feel […]
*+-Chiron: the Wounded Healer. You can Google the mythology 😉 I remember, some years ago, asking a local astrologer, during a reading I was having, whether she thought Chiron could be healed or could NOT be healed. She was firm. She said NOT. You may feel differently. And I remember […]
*+-Today I was talking to someone who adopts “rescue-dogs” and she was mentioning how they still get triggered (responding to perceived danger/threat) even years later. Certain physical gestures (probably tones of voice too) can bring them back, psychologically, to the hard times. They’re wounded and I thought to myself “Chiron […]
*+-Lately I’ve been reading astrologer Jeanne Avery and I LOVE the way she describes the 8th House. She calls it the house of “getting your needs met.” And the context for her is primal – the needs that are rooted in childhood. I have Chiron in Aries in the 8th House… […]
*+-I’m surprised how controversial it was of me to post a picture of Kim Kardashian (and yes that is her chart on the left here) on my New Moon in Pisces post. As if I were a Rabbi eating pork fried rice. As if I’d done something taboo or profane. […]
*+-Before I venture heavenward and give you my thoughts on the Stars Today I wanted to say thank you to my sweet loyal emotionally intense readers/commenters 🙂 Thank you for making my blog such a pleasure to wake up to and come home to each day. Sun in mid-Cancer has […]
*+-Sometimes you have to wait a really long time for what you want, and I don’t know why this is. It’s a mystery larger than I can understand. There’s that word again: the ineffable. When I think about mystery and longing for something, desire, I remember this song (click here) […]
*+-Hnybr, a loyal reader and commenter on the blog, wants to know about transiting planetary aspects to Venus and what I can tell you, Hnybr, is this: First, thanks for asking! Second, some transits last longer than others. Jupiter is the fastest of the slow-movers, followed by Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, […]
*+-Relationships always bring you back to yourself… in maddening ways, but ultimately good, transformative, 8th House ways. Understand this: Moon Pluto people are always struggling in their intimacy. Wrestling with themselves. They are too intense, too domineering, they give too much, or they withhold. They alienate, they go round and […]
*+-I love the movie In The Realm Of The Senses and I love this still from the movie. Look at how she’s cradling him. Look at her expression; even her face appears to be holding on for dear life. And his? Kind of bemused, right? Like.. he gets it, he […]
*+-I felt new respect for the opposition today. I have only one in my chart (Saturn Neptune) unless you count asteroids, and many do, especially Chiron, but the story is this: I prefer to be invisible, to go about the world without… strangers asking me for directions, for example, which […]
