-+*The things we are trying to fix happened so long ago. Structures formed. Things we remember. Things we don’t. Sometimes we think we’ve got it figured out. XYZ happened and that’s why XYZ today. But there’s a lot we don’t know. Maturation happens despite… problems along the way. If you […]

-+*And maybe this post is for all the Pluto People, not just the Moon Pluto people. Obviously. But we feel things intensely and for weeks now I felt like I couldn’t write. I would struggle to write. That’s so not me. But it was happening. And just now I was […]
-+*In my head: Sometimes I don’t know if I will even finish out the semester. The lack of sleep is… the interruption to my body rhythm is… a challenge I don’t know if I can do. Getting home at 10pm, 10:30 pm, 11 pm. 11:30pm? The shift in cortisol/adrenalin affects […]
-+*I’m not writing a new book. That’s not what’s happening here. Not yet anyway. But today I got the idea to compile, to collect some little chunks from recent blog posts (from the Substack) and… no goal except to collect them. In one place. In a document. But it’s not […]
-+*My friend, I have the windows open. There’s a very short window of time when I can actually turn off the air conditioner and have the windows open. And it’s so loud, the endless necessary running of the machine. All the time so loud. I can hardly believe it, this […]
-+*I’m not much of a mopper. I tend to vacuum. And today I swiffered. My autocorrect keeps wanting to change swiffered to “suffered.” I’m listening to Peter Gregson/Bach. Ever since I moved into this beautiful apartment, I’ve been battling less than beautiful neighbors. Endless fumes from weed (multiple neighbors) and […]
-+*To book a Reading, look here Perspectives are shifting. Direct revelations. A new moon coming up. Mercury retrograde. Venus direct. The landscape of the next couple weeks is jumpy. And yet…. don’t you feel things settling down? I do. It’s not just me and my personal transits. Life may feel like […]
-+*Two years. It took me two years to write a book, a novel. I didn’t realize it was a novel at the time. And I finished it the summer of 2022 and then queried agent after agent, jumping through the necessary literary agent hoops and probably queried nearly a hundred agents […]
-+*Every day another update. My usual refrain: the world has changed. No, I don’t want to install the latest version of blah blah blah. I want to think about the sky. Commercial break! Subscribe to my Substack where I also write about astrology, tarot, magic, and psychoanalysis. I stopped blogging […]
-+*I want to talk about a few things. I’ll make it quick. About how my analyst wants to know more about my daily life and about my feelings about this. About the new book I started writing and am working on it again today. About how I’m wondering if it […]
-+*I’m on the verge. And then there are the feelings. But I’m on the verge. My chart: Sun Mercury Mars in Cancer with a Moon Pluto conjunction in my First House. Once upon a time, when I was studying astrology (when I was in my 30s), but not reading charts […]
-+*I’m feeling awfully angsty. I’m on a search for authenticity: my own! But it’s a quiet angst. I had a good walk today. Got some energy out. Had a lovely time this morning with a fire sign friend who was on a mission, a caper, and I got to be […]
-+*I’m a writer but maybe I was a helper before I was a writer — able to contain the pain of others. A job given to me but also my nature. Yesterday with my cousin, her pulse speeding away, I felt in my element, completely calm, soothing, even distracting her […]
-+*I was washing the dishes just now wondering if there was an anniversary that I was forgetting. My Kitty died in the late fall/early winter season, as did Cleo. Neither my father’s (nor mother’s) birth or death dates were summer dates. And then I remembered: Goldy. And I dug around […]
-+*I have to spend some time every day in another world. I have to. For sanity. Meditation, trance state, dream state, creative state. Call it flow. Call it gone. Call it away. Call it far far away. Travel. Journeying. Hyperfocus? Dissociation? Creativity? Imagination. I create therefore I am. And I’m […]
-+*Life update: I’m blogging a lot these days, here and on Substack. You can subscribe to my Substack – for free — but also as a paid-subscriber. Paid subs get MORE posts (i.e. all the posts) including the WRITING PROMPTS. New one coming up this weekend. I have it scheduled […]
-+*I’ll try to break it down for you, make it so you don’t need to know any astrology to know what’s going on in the sky (and thus with you). (Plus a reminder that I’m blogging here and on Substack because sometimes I write so much that I got to […]
-+*Find me on Substack for more astrology, tarot, magic, psychoanalysis, daily life in the big city. To book a reading, email me: moonpluto@gmail.com or look here. xo
-+*60 minutes (if we are in a good groove, then we can extend the hour 15 min extra) $326 is the investment Phone OR typing back and forth/text/DM. No Zoom. I don’t record readings but don’t mind if you do. Booking/scheduling these for July or August. In September they go […]
-+*Blogging more over here on Substack but hmm maybe I’ll write some here and some there? Not sure yet. Just wanted to make sure I put the link here. Still writing about astrology, tarot, and magic but also my adventures in psychoanalysis. On Substack, there are paid-sub only posts and lots […]
-+*As always you can book a Reading. LOOK HERE: It’s gonna take some time to get used to the Substack but here’s the link. I think this is the link? Haha. You can support my work/my writing by Subscribing there and/or you can always make a PayPal recurring payment without […]
-+*Grief is so hard because people don’t wanna hear about it, mental health “professionals” included. They will try to talk you out of it, out of your feelings, offer platitudes, stupidities. Well-meaning friends will assume you haven’t found God or your potential. There are all kinds of ways to invalidate […]
-+*It’s been such an honor to do this work. It’s always been more than “chart reading.” I don’t even like doing natal chart readings. What I like and what I do… it’s always been deeper. There are some clients I’ve been working with since… 2011/2012. I’m so much older than […]
-+*I need to write another book. There are a few things I need. I’m not sure a Substack is one of them, but a German shepherd might be. I actually started a new book but before I even started it (slowly writing the introduction to it, for a book proposal) […]
