Pisces new moon compassion meets the balancing point of the Aries equinox Love or war. What’s your choice? And I don’t mean the new-agey “it’s all about love” trip. Do you choose to love yourself or to wage war within? Is your internal scale out of balance between...
What a doozy of an eclipse season. When eclipses storm in like that, they unmask the underlying grime in need of a good power washing. Alchemical by nature, eclipses transmute our lead into gold. We’re forced to identify what needs an immediate overhaul. We’re shoved...
My first lunar eclipse, I watched totally stoned. It blew my mind. The moon really does turn red, just like they say. Witnessing the moon slip through the earth’s shadow feels eerie, unnerving, and incredibly magical all at the same time. I consumed the edible to help...
The Gemini moon, Pisces wisdom, and creating unity I fell in love with writing in third grade. Polly Whitcomb, my teacher at The Aspen Community School, initiated me through poetry. I remember taking my first baby steps via William Blake’s The Tyger. Polly instructed...
A solar eclipse, Aquarius new moon, Pisces season, and Venus returning to the evening sky I’m writing a book. But lately, I’m not really writing a book. I’ve been lagging, focusing on other seemingly important, must-do stuff. I only have three chapters left. It seems...
Saturn enters Aries, stop crossing your own boundaries I used to live with a psychopath. A master at gaslighting, he could effortlessly get me so spun around in my thoughts that I didn’t know which way was up. Compulsively lying to me, I’d somehow end up apologizing...
Aquarian Imbolc, Uranus turning direct, and the wisdom of winter stillness I hadn’t checked out Pinterest in a while, so I innocently, naively, opened the app and was immediately sucked down a time-warping wormhole. I’m just now popping my head up to the surface, like...
Pluto, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus are all changing signs — at the same time. I changed schools as a kid — a lot. I vividly remember my first day of preschool in Oklahoma. My mom was worried about how I’d handle leaving home — for a precious half day. The moment I saw...
Aquarius season kicks off as the sun, Mercury and Mars enter the sign I was freshly conceived when “Hair” the musical first debuted on Broadway and ten when the fabulously controversial movie hit the big screen. Mesmerized by the untamed hippies, the drugs and catchy...
Why astrology’s not really what you think it is? I was twelve when this tiny, witchy woman showed up at our door to read our astrology charts. She was scary looking, otherworldly, more apparition than flesh. I’d never encountered anyone who didn’t seem fully of this...
I’ve been noticing how hard it feels to stop. Even today, as the busiest (not much snow) season winds down, I feel like I’m running on fumes — wired, tired, unable to rest truly. I woke up buzzing, restless, anxious, without any discernible cause. I realized I’m manic...
The Cancer full moon reminds us that sensitivity is a strength, not a flaw “You’re too sensitive!” I’ve heard that refrain over and over my entire life, skipping like a scratched record. Next comes, “You’re so emotional,” packed with accusation. That’s followed...
Moon Mondays! I’ve been a total bah humbug about Christmas for years. Honestly, I could care less about it. I’m not religious, and for a long time, the holidays just brought stress. Sadness. A knot in my chest. Not joy. So this week, as Venus moves into Capricorn on...
As Venus enters Capricorn, a look at family wounds, holiday pressure, and why peace doesn’t come from pretending everything’s fine I’ve been a total “bah humbug” about Christmas for years. Honestly, I couldn’t care less. I’m not religious, and for a long time, the...
Moon Mondays this week brings us the Sagittarius New Moon and the Capricorn Solstice—a rare moment when the Sun and Moon meet in Sagittarius for the new moon and then both transition into Capricorn right afterward. When the Sun enters Capricorn, the solstice arrives....
Why the solstice — not January 1 — is your true New Year, and how to set a clear direction for the first half of 2026 This week delivers both the Sagittarius new moon and the winter solstice. The sun and moon meet in Sagittarius for the new moon and then together step...
Do you feel like the world is wobbling under your feet right now? Like reality itself is shifting, and you can’t quite trust what’s real anymore? If you’re feeling destabilized, there’s a reason: we are in a collective initiation. Neptune is...
Neptune stations direct while we’re in the thick of the hero’s initiation — why your inner work now shapes the world to come For years, I’ve felt increasingly frustrated with modern astrology’s obsession with prediction — as if the planets were fortune cookies instead...
Moon Mondays: Saturn, Mercury & Staying True to Yourself This Holiday Season It’s Moon Mondays—and this Thursday brings the Gemini Full Moon Supermoon. The Moon is closer to Earth, so it appears larger and has a bigger impact on the tides and us. But really, it’s...
A supermoon that rattles your cage, shoves you out of your comfort zone, and reminds you — even in your contradictions, you were never broken Thursday brings us the Gemini full supermoon. Because the moon is closer to the earth, it appears larger and has a stronger...
