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.

 My son was barely 10 years old when we moved into our most recent home. On the day we arrived, I told him to get on his bike and ride around the neighborhood to look for kids to play with. Without concern or care, he promptly did just that.  I knew when he didn’t come…

Black willow provides many ecological benefits 

September 11, 2024
I often spot black willow trees as I’m kayaking along a riverbank or lakeshore. While perhaps less picturesque than its (non-native) cousin the weeping willow, black willow is native to the Northeast and provides a host of ecological benefits. Willow trees are in the Salix genus, along with pussy willow and more than 20 other…
