Jupiter/Uranus Conjunction in Taurus – April 2024

We are in the portal of another long-anticipated sky event: the Jupiter/Uranus conjuction at 21 degrees of the sign Taurus. (I feel particularly lucky as this conjuction is happening on the degree of my natal moon!). This meeting of two future- and forward- facing planets indicates a new start, the beginning of a new 14-year cycle of growth, surprising new developments and innovation. All astrological events can go “either way” in terms of how we play them out, or respond to their underlying energetic currents. Collectively, we will…

Inner Fire at the Winter Solstice

Solstice blessings everyone! Even though most of us who track these things celebrate the Solstice on the 21st, in my time zone the astrological Solstice is today, as our life-giving central star crosses over to the first degree of Capricorn. I don’t share this to be pedantic, even though I am a huge nerd about these things, but to highlight that there’s a real energetic threshold we’re crossing — something’s clicking over, it’s not just another day. The sign of Capricorn (if you’re not familiar or…

Synchronicity: A Deep Dive and Navigation Guide

Today we’ll be delving into the kinds of coincidences that take our breath away, give us goosebumps and make us go, “did that really just happen?” An animal you feel a strong connection with keeps appearing at the same time as important or emotionally charged events take place in your life.You see the same number repeated seemingly everywhere when you’re about to take a pivotal step in your creative or professional development (multiples of 11 are big contenders here, but not the only ones!).A loved one…

Time-traveling Cat and a Patchwork Quilt of Synchronistic Nudges

In the past weeks, some of my dreams have brought on magical synchronicity cascades, and as we head into this week’s Equinox, it feels meaningful to share one particular saga.It is said that the Equinoxes, which usher in Spring and Autumn, are a time where energies come into a perfect balance. A brief moment in the Wheel of the Year in which daylight hours perfectly equal the dark hours in a 24-hour period.This, right before Light (the energies of growth, expansion, manifestation and rebirth) or Darkness…

Boar, Panther, Turtle: Mid-year Animist Guidance

This post comes to you in two parts: the first part was born of an animal card reading I did for myself, which felt deeply resonant for some of the current collective energies. The second is a meta-exploration of the more fraught aspects of working with animal symbolism as part of our animist toolkit. The other day I pulled out my ancient deck of Medicine cards*. This is the oldest divination deck I own: my mother got it for me as a gift when I was…

Faery-tale Dream and Our Deep Longings

I had a dream this morning that felt more than a little mythical. In my dream, I got married to a beautiful, tender man who was, in reality, a knight — but he was from the future. For the best chances at a good timeline, he had to travel back in time to meet me, which would help lay the ground for him to face the steep challenges to come in his native time.After celebrating our wedding, I was carried on a quest to solve a…

The Language of The Birds

On the first day heralding spring, a couple of weeks back, I went out on a walk on the fields with my love, Merlin. The sun was so intense I could peel my layers down to a t-shirt. He asked which way we should go, and I had a strong feeling we should take a particular path around a sheep paddock we like to visit. We gawked at the expanses of crocuses and at life peeking up from every nook and cranny available — even though…
