-+*This post is from my Substack “I want to become an expert in what was shattered.” That quote above – and I didn’t quote the whole sentence — is from Jeffrey Rubin’s new book, Psychotherapy Case Studies: Escaping the Prison You Didn’t Know You Were In. I started reading it […]
Transits

-+*I woke up with a dream about getting stuck in an elevator and the odd thing was that I woke up in a good mood. When is an anxiety dream not an anxiety dream? We were rescued by dream’s end and I wasn’t stuck in the elevator alone. I’m still […]
-+*What I’m thinking today about the upcoming long Mars in Gemini transit: Mars in Taurus = needing things to stay the same. Mars in Gemini = greater comfort with options and change. In Tarot class, we talked about the NINES (among other things) and I brought some words from Mary […]
-+*At this point it would not be inaccurate to say that your life has become a prison and the transits of this time are pushing you to break free. Not only the upcoming long Mars in Gemini transit and the recent Mars Uranus North Node situation but also the Jupiter […]
-+*Y’all gonna tell me I’m crazy when I tell you that the long long Mars in Gemini transit is gonna help you straighten out your life. And that might be all I have to stay about the matter (for now). And I hear you yelling at me OY VEY ALIZA […]
-+*It’s like an exorcism, Childbirth? It’s like everything coming out of you, violently. Everything coming out of you that NEEDS to come out, must come out. That’s what transformation (the hard transits) feels like. But the eclipses can feel like that too and we have two eclipses on the way. […]
-+*I associate Neptune with sadness and melancholy and that far away look you get when that sad song comes on and you need to switch it off because it’s just too much. Neptune people do that. I do that. I have to be prepared for music (and I do love […]
-+*Life always gets in the way of writing, but I also need a life to write, need the contrast. And one has to eat and sleep and do other things, and I’m thinking about how for the last few days I’ve been focusing not on writing but on work-work, my […]
-+*There are battles that you get tired of fighting. I can think of a few myself. It’s very Seven of Wands, Ten of Wands. Until you stop with the Wands already. You just stop. Or therapy changes your brain or something changes your brain and you stop fighting. Maybe you […]
-+*But it doesn’t really feel like trying because it’s Jupiter. There’s an ease to it, a flow, and so much more these days with Jupiter in Pisces. There’s no stop/start or overthinking or underhandedness like Jupiter in the other signs. Jupiter likes being in Pisces (they say) and I think […]
-+*Catch up here with other Chiron Return blog posts: Stung By 1000 Bees Mass Grave So this post is a reminder to trust your instincts and about how the Chiron Return is the end of a cycle of pain and misery, and you can finally see clearly the mistake you […]
-+*I’m sitting here trying to edit, trying to write (blessed, not in a war zone), trying to work on chapter eleven of new writing, and I can’t. I’m emotional. Tears. I had to stop and talk to you instead. Blog about it. Talk about the Chiron Return, MY Chiron Return, […]
-+*So I was writing about a moment of spontaneous forgiveness that I experienced the other day. I mean, I forgave someone spontaneously (they are dead so this happened inside me and on the astral plane) and that was WEIRD, and I know it’s somewhere here, the saved post, but I […]
-+*Through certain houses of the chart and through certain times in our lives, the eclipses and the Nodes are a battle. Maybe it’s all the time. I don’t remember. But I was reflecting this evening on the recent Gemini/Sagittarius Nodes and eclipses and all they were for me was a […]
-+*So I was on a podcast today and it had been a while since I gave an interview. Felt like a lifetime ago — which feels weird because my book is only six months old or so, but nothing is normal at this time, and I was being myself as […]
-+*Could I possibly have anything more to say about Venus Retrograde and the Venus Pluto conjunction? Probably. I got one more cut to make. Just watch me. Stay tuned for that news in the new year. And I know you’ve got your own cuts to make. Who and what will […]
-+*So. Are you becoming energetically smaller? In response to something? In response to your WHOLE LIFE? You know what I’m going to say next. That the current sky can help you with this. Or maybe it’s just you. Maybe it’s not the collective sky, the collective astrology, but something you’re […]
-+*I left the Shabbos table early, my usual place, a good friend. One of her kids has a cold (not covid) but I was just sick and didn’t want to get sick again and who knows it’s out of my hands now, but I was there for a little bit, […]
-+*So many endings. We have a Full Moon tomorrow. Venus goes retrograde on Sunday. What was it that you wanted? It’s changed already, hasn’t it. I spent hours today writing and writing so I don’t have too many blog-thoughts now, but here’s the news: it’s time to review your dreams, […]
-+*I feel I have to fall in love with my book again, the new one I’m working on. And it’s not that I’ve fallen out of love with it, but life gets in the way and work and the body and just everything… gets in the way sometimes. I’ve got […]
-+*Feeling something else now about this upcoming Venus retrograde, that you might go quiet, solitary, so quiet, so solitary, and need some space or room for yourself, for a while, and more than usual. So that you can think. So that you can understand. Less social, more introspective. Chiron goes […]
-+*That everything is painful and you feel like it shouldn’t be so you fight against it and then it only hurts more. And it keeps on hurting until you learn this truth. That life IS painful. And there doesn’t come a time without pain, regret, loss. No matter what the […]
-+*How to let it go and move on? That’s my question tonight as I contemplate leaving a relationship and realizing that Pluto is about to make (I think) it’s LAST pass to my Mars. Pluto has been opposing my Mars for YEARS, the last of three Pluto transits to my […]
-+*Cunt. A cunt of a transit. Here I am blaming the eclipses, and there is that, but the Sun Pluto opposition (which was exact on Saturday) has been active ALL CANCER SEASON since Cancer Season essentially is a Sun Pluto opposition. There’s nothing else to know. Nothing else to understand […]
