Peeking into the future? 

You probably like astrology because it can give you a glimpse into the future. That said, if you could really open the curtain and take a peek into 2025, would you?

If you actually could see which areas of life were going to be lit up and which ones may diminish, would it change your course of action?

You see, many of us think we would. The reality is, however, we don’t have as much free will as we give ourselves credit for. 

Think of this week a bit like a movie trailer to the feature film that will be released next year. There’s an action scene here. A bit of intrigue there. And just when all appears lost, the hero of the day takes his woman in a passionate embrace and all becomes well in the circle of life, once again. You see, that is what the trailer leads you to believe. It’s just the outline, it’s not the full story. 

This week, an opportunity opens where you can lean into a dream of how you’d like one area of life to manifest for you. That said, are you willing to let go of everything you currently believe to be true and just trust in the sublime, the ridiculous and the unknown?

A variety of fears

May 28, 2025
One of the TV talk shows I was watching recently discussed fears. The comment was made that we outgrow most childhood fears, but some remain. Fear of the dark is a common one when you are young. I remember a night light solved that problem for me. My bedroom door was left open, and there…

‘Friendship’ is not for the faint of heart

May 28, 2025
Forming a new friendship with someone in your 40s is challenging enough; try doing it if you’re an introvert. Writer/director Andrew DeYoung’s comedy “Friendship” is a hilariously dark look at male bonding with a leading performance from Tim Robinson that audiences won’t soon forget.  Where to begin with this movie? I guess, for starters, a…
