How Do You *Really* Feel?

Navigating the deep and powerful currents of the Scorpio New Moon. Today’s Scorpio New Moon takes place at 12:46 UT, at 9o 34’ of Scorpio, heralding the mega-charged opposition between both its ruling planets, Mars and Pluto, which will be exact on November 3rd.  While the Moon will be in Scorpio only until November 3rd this month, and we’ll continue traversing Scorpio season until the Sun moves into Sagittarius on November 22nd, the aspect between Mars and Pluto will continue to unfold until late April 2025 thanks…

Taking Up Space

No matter how hard we may try to avoid it, I've come to believe we always take up all of the space allotted to us. How we do that makes all the difference. I did a psychic reading for a client not long ago. As I went to look at her energy field, two things became apparent: one, she naturally had a fiery, highly creative quality to her nature. This showed up on my “viewing screen” (in my mind’s eye) as colorful flames all around her.…

Love Calls Us to Something Braver: Libra New Moon Eclipse

Or, what is over-and-done in your relationship with others, yourself and the world? It's time to let go. As we welcome the incoming Libra New Moon, we’re greeted by a relational reckoning of sorts. Let’s keep in mind that while, generally, New Moons are the perfect time to set intentions for what we’re wanting more of in our lives, this lunation comes with a few plot twists. As a South Node (solar) eclipse, today’s New Moon energy is amped-up. But rather than having us look directly at the…

Glimmers of Transcendence: Pisces Full Moon Eclipse

Friends, we’re about to cross the mystical portal of a Pisces Full Moon Lunar Eclipse.  The Full Moon takes place on Sept. 18 at 2:34am UT, at 25 degrees, 06’ of Pisces, just a few days before the Libra Equinox decidedly shifts the balance of light and dark, placing us squarely in Autumn here on Gaia’s Northern half, while those of you in the Southern hemisphere enjoy the blooming of Spring. Our upcoming Full Moon plunges us into the oceanic waters of the final sign of the…

Living In Your Home Frequency: A Guide

The Importance of Aligning with Our Unique Vibration.Why “Home Frequency”?  This term originates with author Penney Peirce, and is described in her aptly named book, “Frequency”. I like the feel of it, so I’ve adopted it in conversation. It’s a handy way of referring to something I also like to call our Soul Glow (or just simply “Glow”). These are shorthands for a complex phenomenon: a dynamic, utterly harmonious, blissful vibration which comes about from being completely filled with ourselves in the best possible way.  In Context If you’re…

Bring Forth What is Within You

New Moon in Leo, and a deep dive into the power and vulnerability of authentic expression. Today’s new moon greets us with all the irrepressible joy of the sign of the Lion! The New Moon occurs exactly at 11:12 am UT, at 12 degrees 33’ of Leo. We’re heading into the Cross-quarter day of Lughnasa/Lammas in the Northern Hemisphere, and Imbolc in the Southern Hemisphere. (Wait, didn’t that already happen a few days ago? Traditionally this feast day is celebrated on August 1st, but astrologically we’re looking for…

The End of an Era

Harvesting the final pieces of Pluto in Capricorn with the Full Moon On July 21, at 10:16 UT, we have our second Capricorn Full moon in a row! (At 29° 08’) This Full Moon takes place at the final (AKA anaretic or critical) degree of Capricorn. The anaretic degree of a sign has a “last hurrah” feel to it; the planet moving through it feels extra intense, condensing the energy of the sign into an urgent final statement or lesson before moving on into the next…

Tap Into Your Moon Senses: New Moon in Cancer, 2024

On July 5th at 22:57 UT, we begin a new lunar cycle with the moon at 14 degrees 23’ of Cancer.  We all have I like to collectively call “moon-senses”: all of the non-verbal, pre-verbal, body-knowing, mammal, imaginal, emotional and “right-brained” channels of information — bringing forth felt-truths from deep places inside.  These very same senses get to be center stage, massively boosted by today’s New Moon in its own sign of Cancer. The gates are wide open. Something beyond the rational and clear-cut is calling.  …

Full Moon in Sagittarius, May 2024

Tomorrow’s Sagittarius full moon brings with it some special blessings. Sagittarius takes both physical and philosophical distance to take in the big picture: what is my place in the story of the world? In the midst of chaos and countless possible outcomes; in the midst of cynicism and shortsightedness, of busy-ness and information overwhelm — what best possible world do I stand for? What is the most generous, expansive, wonder-filled, wise story you can image right now? With the Sun’s trine to Pluto, there’s an element,…

To Surf the Oncoming Chaos… Lean into Soul

“What is happening in the ethers? Why is everything so intense right now?” I’m hearing this from all directions. In the wake of March + April’s eclipse season, the Jupiter/Uranus conjuction in Taurus, Pluto’s retrograde shift for its finale in Capricorn later this year, and most recently, after the powerful geomagnetic storms giving us stunning auroras throughout the world in the last days — we seem to be feeling an intensity like never before. In his 2006 book Chaos Point, systems theorist Ervin László wrote that…
