How to best ride the waves of this Total Solar Eclipse–a checklist
A New Era Birthed During Eclipse Season
We are almost at the end of an incredibly potent Eclipse Season, which will end at the New Moon happening at 11:11 pm Eastern on 31 July, or 1 August in Europe and parts east of that. This is also the High Holy Day of Lughnasadh, the first of the harvest festivals in the Wheel of the Year. More on …
This is a Marathon, not a Sprint
It’s been a challenging couple of weeks! So many ups and downs, white male smug entitlement on display, then Friday’s gut-punch by Susan Collins. Wow. I didn’t know if I was going to be able to stand back up after that one!! But I did. And I know that you did, too. Because we are here to bring more Light …
Critical Mass, Value + Authority at Libra Full Moon
If you’ve been having a rough go of things lately, know that you’re not alone. There are lots of cosmic energies pulling us in different directions right now, so if you’re exhausted or confused, frustrated, angry or depressed, rest assured that it’s the perfect human response to what’s up out there. I’ll explain in more detail below, but the thing …
Rebalancing Energies at the Equinox
Happy (Belated) Equinox! I’m so affected by the tech glitches in the upcoming Mercury retrograde period (it stations retrograde tomorrow, so we’re in the thick of it already) that I feel I’ve been just wrestling with technology rather than getting much done lately. So my apologies for not appearing in your inbox a day ago, as I intended. Since the …
This Most Mighty of Thresholds (Solstice)
This is a High Holy Day celebrating a kind of acupressure point in the Wheel of the Year. In the Northern Hemisphere, today marks the still point, a pause between the previous cycle and the new one. In spite of the busyness of the season, my wish for you is that you may experience the stillness and let it be …
The tantalizing discomfort of perplexity + dissonant details awaiting harmonious resolution
This is a Supermoon (the first of 3 which will culminate in a lunar eclipse/blue moon in late January) and the December Full Moon is traditionally called the Cold Moon, the Long-Night Moon, or the Moon Before Yule. Honestly, though I often see things coming, I was taken aback by the intensity of this year. From the deft, Orwellian turning …
Spiritual Grooming–reposted
It’s Throwback Thursday! I just found this post I wrote exactly 6 years ago, which was on a topic I had broached at least a year before that: Spiritual Grooming. It’s timely because it’s Virgo Season (yes, the Sun is now in Libra, but we just had a Virgo New Moon last week, and it sets the tone for the …
Finding Your Center in 22 Seconds Flat
Today is the Equinox: days and nights in perfect balance. I wanted to pause here for a moment on this day of perfect balance to let you know that you are Loved, that you are Divine, and that everything will be okay. Even if it sounds a little unbelievable, you are a microcosmic expression of the Universe, and …
Whoa! That Seemed Too Easy…
Have you been resisting something lately? Today I was resisting working. Which is weird, because IĀ loveĀ my work. I woke up at 5:30 and got out of bed with the intention of writing this newsletter, and then I didnāt. I read email, looked at Facebook, and even played a few games on my phone instead. I didnāt even meditate. Thatās …
