*+-It’s all so unprecedented. It’s hard to give advice. I say one thing and then the opposite becomes true and then it flips again. What does this mean? It means… if you find yourself at a loss you’re not doing it wrong. You will figure it out. You’ll (eventually) intuit […]
venus retrograde
*+-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 […]
*+-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 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’m blogging too much to put it all on Substack. When I do too much over there, people Unsubscribe so… maybe I’ll split my time. Put the overflow over here. Here is the Substack link though… where I mostly am, writing about astrology, tarot, magic, and my psychoanalysis life. It […]
*+-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) […]
*+-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 […]
*+-Socia media can be painful. I just had one such interaction. I was making a joke and the other person (total stranger, probably decades younger than me) didn’t get the joke and I was sarcastic in response. I knew they wouldn’t get that joke either and they didn’t so they […]
*+-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 […]
*+-This blog post has an origin story which I told (part of) in a video, but wanted to say more here, in blog form. And it’s all about VENUS RETROGRADE and creativity and a discovery I made through talking to other artists. I don’t want to tell the whole story […]
*+-It’s fine if you want to be beautiful. Doesn’t really interest me, but you can do whatever you want. You be you, my love. That’s what Venus is about. What YOU value. I’m more Mars than Venus. And no we don’t need to choose, but this is my blog and my […]
*+-A client asked me to write about Venus retrograde which starts this week and this is what I think: we already know the obvious, right? Venus is love and money and possessions and social life and your appearance and your self-esteem and what you value, but I was walking to […]
*+-I had thoughts about Florida when I first came back to Florida. That I was going to BE Florida. Be all nature-y and start growing or planting or have a witchy herb garden because witches are supposed to do that– but the truth is — that’s not me. I don’t […]
*+-The first full week of March is here. What do you think so far? What do you think of Venus gone retrograde so far? Venus in Aries at 13 degrees. I’ll tell you what I think: this is a perfect time to… breathe. Venus in Aries doesn’t stop to breathe. […]
