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.

The great unfurling
June 18, 2025
We have just about come to the end of the great unfurling. That moment in time when the trees have grown and budded and leafed and have stretched as far as they can go. They are bigger, brighter, and fuller than they were last year, and you can feel the canopy thickening. The woods are…
Calling for a friend
June 18, 2025
We’ve all received those dreaded phone calls— the ones where the person’s voice on the other end suggests something dire is coming. The greatest example of this for me was the night I got the call that my father had died. It happened during my senior year of college around 9 p.m. Upon returning from…
The dapper sparrow of the underbrush: Eastern towhee
June 18, 2025
From forest edges and thickets on late spring mornings in the Northeast comes what sounds like an exhortation from across the pond: Drink your tea! This is not a British parent’s plea but rather the song of a chunky, colorful sparrow: the eastern towhee. The eastern towhee (Pipilo erythrophthalmus, or “red-eyed chipper”) is found in…
‘The Shrouds’ is another erotic techno-thriller from David Cronenberg
June 18, 2025
Humans have difficulty dealing with death. Canadian auteur David Cronenberg is not immune to this affliction. His wife of nearly 40 years passed away in 2017. Cronenberg said on record that “The Shrouds” is one measure of his grieving process. We all handle grief differently. Maybe not quite as different as Cronenberg or his protagonist,…
