*+-What is moderation anyway? Well, we do have a Temperance card. The Tarot gods created a Temperance card. And a Devil card. There’s a card for everyone and everything if you look close enough. But I was thinking about this topic — moderation — as I started to ponder my […]

*+-When Saturn is in Pisces, we keep trying to structure God and then we realize it can’t be done. We keep trying to control God and, no, it can’t be done. He keeps slipping out. He’s near and then far. Far and then near. And yet we need, must learn, […]
*+-My analyst acts like we have all the time in the world. I don’t know how old he is, but he’s older than me. Today I asked him what something meant. “Symbolically,” I said. What does it mean symbolically? And as I sit here typing to you I can’t remember […]
*+-I listened to the same music over and over when I was writing my memoir (and yes I am still agent-hunting). When I listen to that music now, it takes me back to how I felt when I was writing it: intensity, hunger, longing. But the book is funny — […]
*+-I don’t even know what to say anymore about Mars going direct. I can hardly believe it. After all this time. It’s happening this Thursday and it’s been so many months and Mars still needs to go through almost all of Gemini again but… This was a big one. I […]
*+-I see my Pluto so clearly now and I have a feeling it’s only going to get more clear, which scares me a little. It’s exciting too. To get to know oneself. It’s a deep process. Make no mistake. I used to think I knew my Pluto, could see my […]
*+-So I just got off the phone with one of my Tarot people. I teach Tarot one on one (old school!) and for special students only meaning that… it has to be just right. They have to be the right student for me and I’m the right teacher for them […]
*+-The transit of the moment. The least you need to know. News you can use! You may already be feeeeeeeeeling it. I AM FEELING IT. Break out the fireworks, my friends. Here we go. MARS GOES DIRECT THIS WEEK. Thursday! Today I did a long rambling storytime audio for Patrons […]
*+-You have to understand (I say to my analyst): I’ve been out of circulation for a long time. What I mean is: not just Covid. Not just pandemic time. I mean, I’ve been self-employed for decades and that’s how I like it. I was a pet sitter (working totally alone […]
*+-You’ve really got to think about your life these days. Today I started to think about everything that happened in my life while Pluto was in Capricorn. Me and my friend Laura were sharing lists of major events. She had hard and “easy” aspects from Pluto too. My entire astrology […]
*+-Pluto comes to change you. Pluto comes to change us all. Listen, I’ve been through Pluto opposing my Sun, my Mercury, my Mars. I was born under a Moon Pluto conjunction (in my First House). You know what Pluto does? Pluto gives you depth you didn’t want. Now, the details […]
*+-Intense emotions! That’s what my astrologer said to me when he told me about my natal Moon Pluto conjunction so many years ago. He wasn’t wrong. I’ve lived a very long time without parents. I know a lot about a certain kind of life. (Moon conjunct Pluto = Pluto kills […]
*+-I have NO plans on quitting astrology or tarot or doing readings/consultations/tarot lessons/everything else that I do, mystically speaking. This came to mind this morning. I got a message. The message said keep focusing on astrology and focus MORE on it. And I know I’ve been hyper focused on my […]
*+-What is Pluto? Pluto will be changing signs, okay, but what is Pluto? What does Pluto symbolize? I’m sitting here, thinking, writing to you, wondering if I can sum up Pluto in a way that will satisfy me. If it satisfies me then it might satisfy you. And this won’t […]
*+-I feel a little speechless actually. I started studying astrology when Pluto was in Sagittarius. And now, flash forward, it’s ending its time in Capricorn. And I’m not going to go “in order” as if there were any order to go in, and I’m going to start with a personal […]
*+-When I die, sprinkle my ashes over the diners of New York City is what I think to myself as I walk home from my morning walk and pancakes. Nice cold crisp weather, below zero in actual temperature and real feel. Finally got my layers right this morning and am horrified […]
*+-I want to remember how to write. I used to write so freely. That’s what this blog was, all freedom and pain and desire. And astrology. And, yes, I did delete years worth blog posts recently. Writing my two (published) books didn’t make me a better writer. I think they […]
*+-More often than not, I don’t understand my own nature. I’m scared all the time *and* I do things that scare me ALL the time. And there’s lots of stuff that doesn’t scare me in the slightest and I do those things too. But it’s the fear stuff that fascinates […]
*+-Okay this is Mercury trine Uranus in action and this aspect is on order this week, exact on Saturday but we’re feeling it now, living it now. Last night I sent off a quick email to someone who was, well, really important to me, and is partly responsible for the […]
*+-I’m gonna try. I’m gonna try to keep blogging, and today I was back on the pod (after deleting all the old episodes again). It keeps me sane to talk to you and this was how it all began: on the blog. So I got off the phone with my […]
*+-We’re in the midst of a long angry slog by the name of Mars retrograde and this week we have a Full Moon in Mars Retrograde in Gemini. Where are the boundaries? What needs to be said? Gemini rules speech. Everything means something and nothing means anything. I’m at that point […]
*+-The intensity. Just got off the phone with a client and I was deep in her energy. Astrology, tarot, “the guides.” I was deep in. I went a little over time and she thanked me and I said to her when the guides are talking I don’t want to interrupt. […]
*+-I’m very excited. I made a decision. And I’m also waiting for a food delivery so can’t start the Weekly Stars video yet for my Patreon. Before I talk about the top of mind topic let me say that I am talking to clients weekly again (I had to take […]
*+-Mars retrograde is worse than you think and especially for Pluto in Virgo generation in the late degrees because we’re having this prolonged Mars square Pluto transit. I was about to finally catch up on Patreon and I hit my toe (and had to sit down, elevate it) and then […]
