Rhythms of return

Cosmic Catalogue

Like Nature, nothing in astrology is linear. Much like life, really. The process of change rarely happens in a straight line. It’s messy. It’s one step forward and two steps back. Sometimes, it’s two steps forward with just one step back.

Sometimes, these circular rhythms are frustrating. Just like how it was to be age 9 in the backseat of your parent’s car, asking, “Are we there yet?” You’re impatient, excited, or bored, just wanting the next phase of whatever it is to begin.

Then, there are times when the opportunity to circle back to something offers the chance to be sure. It can often take more than one time to end a relationship. An old flame may circle back into your life, and while the stroll down Memory Lane is nice, it’s not going anywhere.

The chance to do something over can also be the chance to do something better. A second chance can truly be a blessing. It can be a real lifesaver!

We are at the precipice of the new, kind of like glowing on the metal on the edge of a knife. It’s exciting and impulsive. There’s an element of danger. Some of us can’t wait to launch into the new. At the same time, others cannot wait to circle back. Regardless, we all need to get used to the new eventually.

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.

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…
