*+-“Modeh ani l’fanecha” means I gratefully acknowledge… and it is from a short prayer that traditional Jews say upon waking up in the morning, grateful that their soul has been returned to them after sleep. You, my readers, my supporters, have returned my soul to me. I wanted to say […]
occupy Wall Street
*+-These notes are from yesterday… On the Broadway side of Zuccotti Park there was a big white banner, big as the Full Moon. It said “Occupy Wall Street stands with Occupy Boston, Occupy Seattle, Occupy Des Moines.” And there was a group of protesters sitting in front of it, legs […]
*+-Good Morning, Star Gazers 🙂 Expect a Wild West kinda day today. Aries/Libra showdown! At the very least, emotions running high, high, higher with the Full Moon opposing Sun and Saturn in Libra. You may feel like your freedom is being blocked. Is it true? Impossible to tell until you […]
*+-Before going to work, I had time to kill, so I headed back to Zuccotti Park. I’m in the middle of trying to figure out how to contribute and anyone who reads this blog knows that I haven’t been feeling so well lately. You know how that is. You’re sick. You […]
*+-This post is a continuation of the previous post! Click here! 12 pm: October 9, 2011, Sunday: So after a long wait, and a bathroom break, thanks to Burger King who did not put up “restroom out of service” signs, I headed back to the park. The protest was coming […]

*+-You know why I support Occupy Wall Street? Because action is better than despair. Why does it matter that it’s not all figured out? That it’s not all perfect and shiny. Don’t movements MOVE i.e. change? Allow for that and change becomes possible. I was cynical, very cynical. Calling it […]
*+-I decided to head back to Zuccotti Park today to absorb more energy and to try to make sense of it. Like a good Virgo Moon, I did everything on my list before heading out. Would it feel different on a weekend? How would it feel? Would I see the […]
*+-Note:  most of the first part of this blog post was written this morning, on the subway, on my phone, in a dark mood. Turned out to be a great day though. So I am going to meet my director (our first meeting) on Erev Yom Kippur (catch up here about […]
*+-Some of you know that I’m a playwright. Or I was a playwright. Couldn’t figure out if I was going to continue (long story). I did decide to take a break though… and I haven’t been working on plays or even going to the theatre at all… But I do […]
