-+*Time to write. It’s the most important thing I do. Someone told me yesterday that they love my blog and it made me feel good. I hope you get a message that makes you feel good today. Oh and for those of you who love the writing, please know I […]

-+*First, the lay of the land: Eclipses (over, but not done yet. They are ON you.) Mars and Saturn going their separate ways. Mercury still retrograde in fire-flower Aries. Aries Season (not for much longer) so we want it NOW. Jupiter Uranus exact on Saturday and if you aren’t blowing […]
-+*It’s like a crank. It’s like a lever. I don’t know what the F it is. But you’re pulling it back, you’re pulling it towards you, and it’s setting everything in motion even though you don’t even need to pull it. The pulling is an afterthought, a metaphor, a ritual, […]
-+*So we’ve been through it and we’re not done yet. Mercury retrograde still here. Aries Season still here. Eclipse Season: STILL HERE although we’re done for now with fresh eclipses until the fall. Am I missing anything? Oh yeah we went all Mars Saturn as well. That was rough. I […]
-+*I feel old school because I am old school, still blogging, writing (and no AI ever) while everyone else is filming (and podcasting) their astrology thoughts and what have you. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but I’m a writer (and a helper). Always been a writer. Although just […]
-+*That if you really want it or love it, it’ll get taken from you. It’s a lesson from childhood so you repeat it, and it’s a lesson from everyone’s childhood. So then what happens is you devalue it, destroy it. Better them than you, right? And better to see this […]
-+*So I lit my Shabbos candles and poured myself a glass of kiddush wine and might even go to shul tomorrow morning, but here I am blogging — and I wasn’t planning on blogging tonight — but the sky is just so BUSY, and I’ve got Chiron on my mind. […]
-+*Are you feeling the calm before the storm or the storm before the calm? It rained yesterday and it’s supposed to rain all day today. Into every life a little Mercury retrograde must fall. Mercury goes retro April 1st in ARIES. Isabel Hickey says about Aries: “Don’t try to direct […]
-+*I feel like I forgot this blog existed. School, for me, is a creative process, but it’s a lot of taking in: reading, reading, reading. And reading isn’t passive but… suddenly I realized I hadn’t blogged here or on the Substack or sent out a newsletter in a little bit. […]
-+*1 In some ways I’ve become my mother. I feel her face in my face. Her expressions. I’ve outlived her. I might be off by a few months. Her yartzeit is next month. She died during a leap year, a year when there were two Adars (Adar is the Hebrew […]
-+*Chiron square Sun, Chiron opposite Sun, Chiron conjunct Sun. I’m not going to make a distinction between these three in this blog post, but I can tell you that Chiron has been squaring my Sun for a while now (I stopped counting for how long) *and* I have this in […]
-+*Thinking about playing cards with my niece and how I don’t care who wins or loses. I mean, I don’t care if I win. It’s not so much a game of brains but quick reflexes. It’s late on a Friday night and occasionally I rise to the occasion to see […]
-+*Today on the phone with a client, right before we hang up, I tell her if I don’t adjust the blinds, I’ll have ten construction guys looking in my window, that’s how close they were. She said to me, “Well, you can give them a show.” I laughed, making the […]
-+*It’s Pisces Season now and Mercury enters Pisces this week too, but you know what? It’s ALWAYS Aquarius Season for the next twenty years because Pluto is in Aquarius (except for another quick dip into previous sign Capricorn this year for a few months). Pisces Season. What does it mean to […]
-+*I know we call the 12th House the secret place and it’s not untrue, but I think we don’t talk enough about the pain of the 6th House so in that sense it’s a secret. Off the top of my head: daily routines, work, health, pets (small animals), the Virgo […]
-+*So you could experience another reversal, another last minute switcheroo, curveball. Tomorrow, Mercury squares Uranus (and Venus enters Aquarius, joining the Sun, Mercury, Mars, and Pluto). That’s a lot of energy in one part of your chart. But about Mercury square Uranus (and yes this is a genius aspect in […]
-+*You want to know what Chiron in Aries is about? I’ll tell you. Chiron in Aries = it’s hard (Chiron) to be brave (Aries). There’s a kink in the machine, a snag. You want to ride off into the sunset but instead you linger, you question, you Hamlet. You get […]
-+*I was in the library and working on a new book proposal, before class, but needed to tear myself away and stretch my legs and get a decaf and some fresh air, something. I needed something. And there’s this church around the corner and they had a sign that one […]
-+*I need new music. I need new music for this life I’m in now, and it’s not that I have music on all the time, but a lot of the time. There’s writing music and walking music and housework music, and I’ve changed so much that the old music is… […]
-+*Things are… a little weird. Not weird bad. Just weird. And this morning I realized that I called a client BY THE WRONG NAME. How Freudian-slip of me. I don’t think I’ve ever done that. I may mispronounce a name on occasion but a differently name entirely? That’s weird. I […]
-+*I keep talking about February being an incredible month, part Aquarius, part Pisces, part WOW! And yet this week is slow. Maybe. On the surface. Maybe. To get my full thoughts and feelings ya gotta be a Patron at the Astrology Tier or higher but I can tell you THIS: […]
-+*It must have been Isabel Hickey. Gotta be. The first time I read that Uranus is the higher octave of Mercury. And this morning I had a Mercury retrograde experience but it’s not Mercury retrograde so I said to my friend Laura: It’s Uranus! Uranus going direct this weekend. She […]
-+*I am feeling those squares to Chiron which is also my natal Chiron (in Aries): Mercury and Mars by degree this week (not just by sign) and here comes Venus into Capricorn also squaring Chiron, and Pluto has left the Capricorn part of your chart so there is A SPACE […]
-+*An Aquarius Season like no other this time around because Pluto will enter Aquarius the same day the Sun enters Aquarius (this weekend) and we should prepare for this, I mean internally, because… it matters? It’s a big deal? Yes yes yes. Already I’ve heard from friends and clients of […]
