Tonight begins Rosh Chodesh Elul, which is the month before the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashana. I love Elul. Elul has a distinctive smell to it. Sometimes it's the smell of fall, of leaves, the smell of seasons changing. I start to feel hopeful as we move away from...
Hello the Solar Eclipse/New Moon is next week, August 12th. Wednesday. Sign of Leo the Lion at the 20 degree mark. When is the moment of clear seeing/focus? 1:37 pm Eastern. WRITE IT DOWN. Worth noting the presence of both Mercury and Jupiter (and the Sun of course)...
And today I sought out the herbal remedies as I was writing the newsletter. Remembering my love for Dandelion. For a minute I had forgotten about their potency and power. Also on my mind is the potency and power of your natal North Node. All the planets (and...
No, it’s not the same. Everything is different now. You feel it? The transits are wild, spinning in the sky. The music has the latest instruments, so new we can’t even name them. My book has been out two months now, and I found this lovely YouTuber yesterday with...

You have to work with what you have. I've been working with people for SO long now. I can't even remember how long. When was the first time somebody paid me for a reading? 2011? 2012? Earlier? And I see their suffering. It's hard to miss. I saw it then. I see it now....
I woke up from many dreams. I rarely remember my dreams. They were about my school. Familiar people. A scene of prayer. I don't want to be too specific. What's remarkable to me, besides remembering the dreams, is that I didn't rush to write them down. Instead I went...
Thinking about Venus while the clothes are in the dryer. Thinking about this week's Venus Uranus, Venus Neptune, Venus Pluto. Venus entered Leo over the weekend. Venus is busy. Venus rules, among other things, how you feel about yourself. She might find something she...
"I'm scared all the time," she said, about her Saturn transit. We were sitting across from each other at the cafe, staring at her chart together. I could understand her fear, easily. Who wouldn't? Only a blind man. This transit was brutal indeed. I won't give you all...
