Building energy for change

Cosmic Catalogue

It’s safe to say that the New Year period is over. It’s been a rather arduous start to 2025. While the calendar tells us we are close to the third month, the planets are still very much embedded in their previous cycles.

At first glance, this is frustrating and not very conducive to progress and productivity. When you look deeper into the energetics of things, there is a method in the madness.

 You see, the sooner you fall behind, the longer it takes to catch up. Right now, planets are hovering in positions where they are garnering energy to shift and shake things up. Then are other planets who are entering territory they’ve yet to conquer.

To say the energy is palpable is an understatement. To say that we are on the cusp of significant and unprecedented change would be to state the obvious. No doubt, you’re probably feeling weary but also curious about what could be.

This week, an extended exhale is required. An exhale of relief, but not complacency. Appreciate how far you’ve come, but know there is so much further to go. You haven’t come this far to come this far.

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…
