Cosmic Catalogue: Defining moments

 

Astrologically speaking, we’ve had several defining moments this year and we’re only halfway! This week ushers in a new 18-month cycle that is set to amplify, exaggerate and churn up relationship dynamics. It’s not just about intimate or personal relationships, but also those within your extended circles, such as your friends, neighbors, colleagues and community. It could also be the relationship you have with yourself and other life factors outside of you, such as your money or your relationship to your health and wellness and vitality. It could be the news, the Establishment, your government or your country. Relationship dynamics of all kinds are changing.
What does this mean for you?
This week provides a unique opening for you to get in touch with your needs. What do you actually need to feel safe, secure and nurtured in a relationship? How can anyone possibly attempt to meet those needs unless you can define what they are?  Having needs doesn’t mean you’re needy. It simply means you’re clear on what you’re willing to negotiate on and what you’re not. Compromise is key in most relationships. This week, figure out what you are available for and what you are not. Make the appropriate adjustments that your future self will thank you for.

‘Stone in Love’

I have a poignant memory involving the song “Stone in Love,” released by the band Journey in 1981. I can’t tell you the exact date of my memory, but it probably coincided with the popularity of the aforementioned song, likely around my sophomore year of high school.  The memory revolves around a weekend night in…
