We’ve finally arrived at the point on the astrological timeline many would prefer to avoid: Mars retrograde in Cancer.  Not unlike any other astrological occurrence, you can choose to meet this head-on and remain open to the learning opportunity it provides. Another option is to whine and moan about it and eventually complain that nothing…

This week, social media feeds across the internet will be bursting at the seams with “new year, new me” posts. Self-improvement and lofty goals are always a good thing. However, what about self-acceptance? What would life feel like if you met it in the moment, from exactly where you are? Psychologist Carl Rogers said, “The…

The rhythms of nature are completely cyclic. Nothing operates in a linear fashion. This is something to keep in mind if you’re holding your breath until 2025. While you might be excited to bring in the New Year and its stellar configurations, it would be worth your while to reflect on the year that’s been…

The turning of the Sun marks a significant turning point of light. In the Northern Hemisphere, the light of the Sun will embark upon its ascent of increased light that will peak in June’s Summer Solstice. While in the South, the Sun’s arrival in Capricorn sees the slow descent into shorter days and longer nights.…

Grief is the price you pay for love. War is the price you pay for peace. Discipline is the price you pay for freedom. Nothing in life is free. Few people are willing to pay the price for what they want. Do they even know what they want?  People think they know what they want,…

Some things can’t be hidden, such as the Moon, the Sun, and the stars. Try as it might, the truth also cannot be hidden, at least not forever. This is very much about this new era. As the systems and structures embedded in society’s fabric increasingly reveal their irrelevance, we will all handle this period…

Many, many moons ago, someone told me that relationships end the way they begin. At the time, I remember thinking that was such a cynical attitude. It was like predicting the bitter end at the beginning when things should feel magical. I’m much older and wiser now, and I do have to admit there was…

Every now and then, there is a moment in time that defines an era. Those moments are rare. When they do happen, we tend to look back saying, “Where were you when…”  Where were you when heard about the planes crashing into the Twin Towers? Where were you when Kurt Cobain died? How about John…

Just when you hoped the dust would settle, the Cosmos will kick it up again. This week’s Full Moon happens with Uranus, the planet of surprises, shocks, and changes. If you have a wise eye on the situation, then chances are, you might be shocked but not necessarily surprised. This will be the case if…

To say we’ve arrived at a fork in the collective road is an understatement. Regardless of outcomes, that reality isn’t going to change; it’s inevitable now. It’s more than probable we are already on the highway to hell; it’s just a case of who will take us there faster. All that said, though, do you…

Following the crowd is always an option. So is listening to all the talking heads out there tell you what to think, what to say, and what to do. To be honest, it’s hard not to hear them these days, but you don’t have to listen. In fact, I recommend it, especially if it leaves…

It is the season where the dark creeps up on the light. In many cultures throughout the world, what we call “Scorpio Season” is the time of year when the veil between this realm and the next grows thin.  In the ancient traditions of the far North, the children would embark upon a journey to…

If the truth was presented to you right before your eyes, would you believe it? If that truth contradicted your beliefs or what you know to be true, would you accept it? In this day and age, that is actually a harder question than any of us would like to admit – but admit it…

To say we are on the precipice of something big would be an understatement. As each and every week passes and I attempt to share some words of both wisdom and warning, the veil gets thinner and thinner to the point where it becomes increasingly difficult to be cryptic. You might be looking around at…

T’would be wise to tread gently over the next few days. Notice I didn’t say, “back down,” “retreat” or “give up?” Alas, it’s even more important than ever to hold your ground and fight for what’s right. With many voices of confusion lying, scheming and twisting things, it can be easy for some to lack…
