Incubate your plans and dreams

By Cassandra Tyndall

This week is one of my favorite weeks of the year as we build up to the first New Moon of the astrological New Year. So, in some ways, you could say that this is the dark before dawn. It’s the time to incubate your plans, dreams and goals that you’d like to see blossom over the next 12 months. 

On Friday, April 1, at 2:24 a.m., the Moon will fuse with the Sun, symbolizing bright new beginnings. This is the week to decide what you want to initiate. Fortunately, with Venus and Saturn also fusing as the week begins, you can get very clear about what you want. This might mean having to draw the proverbial line in the sand about what and whom you’re available for as well as what and whom you’re not. The chance arrives to mend any cracks and recommit to what matters. So does the chance to come to the conclusion that a certain situation is no longer working and it’s time to end things in a mature way. If you’ve been caught between a rock and a hard place in recent weeks, finally, you’ll get the chance to make a choice and start afresh — one way or another.

I always ski on June 1st. Some years, the lifts are running, and I’m surrounded by a thousand of my closest friends and fellow ski bums, the line wrapping around the base lodge. Some of us are there for the bragging rights, others for the free t-shirt, and some time at the Umbrella Bar. There’s…

Drawing on inspiration

I know it was second grade because I remember the classroom. And I know what teacher was involved because I never forgot her or the moment I’m about to highlight. The year was 1974. I don’t have many memories from that stage of my life, but the following was poignant enough to have possibly set…

Celestial creature: Indigo bunting

June 4, 2025
There is nothing like the royal blue of an indigo bunting. In the Northeast, they arrive fashionably late to the spring fling, behind the vanguard of migrating warblers and other songbirds. On my morning walk in my frequent birding spot – my “patch,” as birders call it –I heard the sharp double-noted tune: “Look! Look!…
