*+-Did you ever have a transit wipe everything away? Life as you knew it? Yeah, like a tidal wave. Or a plane crash. I think of that show LOST. You just… wind up somewhere, crashed on the beach, and maybe you see someone you know, and maybe not. The recent […]

*+-There is such a thing as productive sinking in. I mean, as a technique for dealing with intense emotions, for dealing with the fall-out, for dealing with feeling spent or… depressed even. Worn to the bone. Sometimes what helps is not to fight it. Not to do (see my previous […]
*+-Mercury Pluto: dark words, deathly words, transforming words, healing words, words from the underworld. Words words words. Today I went in search of the light, under a dark sky, Mercury opposition Pluto. An old friend’s daughter’s graduation and then a meal at their apartment. Hadn’t been there in… months? Leftovers […]

*+-I hate it when there’s not enough time. That’s how I feel today, this week. As a good Virgo Moon and Rising, I rarely run late and I’m rarely behind. So I’ve decided to blame the eclipses! And why not? I hope to be back later tonight or tomorrow to […]
*+-Bad things happen. Scary things happen. Are these platitudes? Maybe. Maybe for Moon Pluto people. That’s what we are, right? Some of us 😉 This morning there was a crisis on the homefront for me and my mind immediately turned towards this summer’s eclipses which are… right around the corner. […]
