We are now midway through March. The first 10 weeks of 2025 have felt arduous, to say the least. Unless you are versed in astrology, you’d be forgiven for thinking a few months ago that this was going to be your year. The astrology of March is nothing short of next level, so much so that it’s actually difficult to articulate. The energy is messy. It’s one step forward and two steps back. Old cycles ending. New cycles beginning. Confusion. Uncertainty. Letting go of old habits and attitudes. The resurrection of the past. The salt in the wounds. The tears. The severing. Just when you thought you got a handle on this cycle, the first eclipse of 2025 arrives. A full moon lunar eclipse attached to the South Node happens on Friday. At the same time, Mercury, the eclipse ruler, stations retrograde in Aries – where Venus has already been reversing. This week, avoid trying to figure things out. Don’t waste your time wondering why people do the things they do or don’t do. Don’t expect accountability from those who aren’t capable of it. Instead, set your own boundaries and standards and settle for nothing less. The pain you feel today is the strength you’ll feel tomorrow.

Rockin’ the Region with Dennis McNally
May 28, 2025
My interview with Fred Tackett of Little Feat happened because of their publicist, Dennis McNally. I didn’t know who McNally was, but my friend Annie Sullivan questioned if he was the same guy of Grateful Dead fame. A Google search confirmed they were one and the same. McNally became the Grateful Dead’s biographer in 1980…
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…
