*+-I was visiting my Cancer Sun-Aries Moon friend this afternoon. Ex-boyfriend, actually, who has been campaigning for my return. Everyone I spend time with these days is a study in astrology for me . How Cancer is he really? How does the Aries manifest? He also has Mars in Aries. […]

*+-The Moon in Capricorn wants to conjunct Pluto REAL BAD, wants that depth and intensity like a Mars in Cancer wants a milkshake 😉 Gemini of course rules the day: Sun Venus conjunction, exact right now. Mercury in Gemini too. Mars in Virgo squares the Gemini family and both signs […]
*+-What holds you back? What keeps you chained? How much you wanna bet that it’s YOU? Or am I wrong? Hmm??? Lately when I do little Tarot spreads for myself, I see the Devil card and it confuses me. I associate this card with addiction and materialism. I recently quit […]
*+-Look what showed up in my Inbox today! “My reading with Aliza was really like connecting with a friend who knows me well enough to tell me the things I need to hear rather than the things I want to hear! I was pretty overwhelmed and impressed by the thoughtful […]
*+-Neptune is at 1 degree Pisces and Mars is at 5 degrees Virgo. Mars is retrograde so you can think of Mars retrograding, moving backwards, to “meet” Pisces. Mars + Neptune = forcing the dream? It’s an odd energy combo because Neptune resists the corral and yet Mars being retrograde changes […]
*+-What is a Void of Course Moon anyway? It’s when the Moon won’t make another major aspect as it moves through the sign that it’s in. Once it gets to the next sign, it is no longer Void of Course. And while the Moon is VoC, we’re supposed to “turn […]
*+-This is a re-post! Easy for me to do: I don’t have that many! Trines are ease, trines are flow, with a trine you don’t even have to fiddle with the doorknob; the door magically opens! Has this been your experience? And then there’s the story about the dude with so many […]
*+-I was just about to say: I feel like I can feel my future. And then I wondered if it was true. I’m not sure. Neptune is often not sure. And I was reading for someone today and I really did feel like she could/can see what’s ahead. All the […]
*+-I am working with a client who is Pisces Rising and has a serious boyfriend with some Serious Virgo Energy and I was emailing her about how I thought his Virgo energy was working (or *not* working) in her life and probably driving her batshit crazy at times. And I […]
*+-I’m not a member of any astrological organization or governing body that awards astrological certification. And the thing is this: I don’t need anyone’s approval to do what I do. I know what I am. Somewhat 😉 And my clients are the true test. Do they come back? Does what […]
*+-Thank you for reading, for commenting, for buying readings, for following me on Twitter, for taking my advice (ha!). In short, thanks for being you! This is a new blog, a young blog, and your support has made me most happy and grateful. Could not have done it without you […]
*+-Prepare for the ride as Uranus stations direct. Oh. Wait. You can’t prepare for Uranus. One thing you can do is pull up your meditation techniques! You have those, right? And ways to clear your energy, right? Sweep your body from head to toe. Sweep it. Use your imaginative forces […]
*+-So I was on my way to the gym when I got the call from my Uncle. Had just gotten off the train. And I knew why he was calling. Why else would he be calling? He doesn’t call that much. My grandfather died. Last night. Around 9:15. And as […]
*+-The Moon Venus trine is light and airy like a whipped dessert even though Venus will run headlong into Saturn in Libra soon enough and the atmosphere will change to heavy custard 😉 Will Venus sweeten your Saturn transit? That remains to be seen. Venus Saturn can be heavy: it’s […]
*+-I haven’t had much time to write lately. No time to write is death to me. A pointless existence. Mars is about to enter Leo. I am allowed to be dramatic 😉  And as the Psalmist said, “You are my light and my salvation.” Well, the Psalmist was talking about […]
*+-Oh Mars in Cancer, do you really have to go? Yes, you do. Leo is waiting. What do you know about Mars in Leo? Anyone? It feels like a holdover, doesn’t it? A summer thing, a summer fling, fall is FUCKING HERE OKAY! It’s almost here. But we must give […]
*+-Venus enters Libra and then what? I used to work in offices. I hated working in offices. There were always snipey people, the office politics, air-conditioner wars (someone too hot, someone too cold), and generally the idea that your support was helping someone else but you were getting little in […]
*+-I know I’m already waving my Virgo flag but it would be wrong of me not to salute Leo before this shift from summer fun (Leo) to harvest time (Virgo). In our sky right now we’ve got a stellium in Leo: Sun, Venus, and Mercury Retrograde! And when the Moon […]
*+-Stray thoughts, late at night: it’s 3am Big City time and I couldn’t sleep. Well, I couldn’t sleep after my Mars opposition (i.e. fight) with a certain someone rattled me so here I am wondering if this will be coherent in the morning and thinking I will post it anyway […]
*+-I couldn’t sleep last night. A mosquito found me and was biting me and kept waking me up. I remember a couple years ago I actually bought bug repellent, the kind people wear outdoors, to wear indoors. Last night though I slathered on a bunch of vanilla and cinnamon oil […]
*+-Think of my blog as your home away from home 🙂 Yes, that’s another nod to the Sun, no longer in Cancer. So without further ado, drum roll please, I bring you… Meow. Leo! And while you’re thinking of my blog as your home away from home, think of it […]
*+-Pluto in the First House leads to regeneration of the self. The old self dies and a new one is born. Over and over, throughout a life. The first astrologer I ever consulted, shortly after my graduate school days, told me that the First House Pluto was like an onion, […]
*+-Our friend Mercury is in the late degrees of Gemini and you know what comes after Gemini, right? The sign of the Crab, the sensitive sideways mover, the mother of indirectness: Cancer. Now I’ve got Mercury in Cancer and yet I do not feel qualified to speak on this topic. […]
