Invisible Meteor Showers

This came from SpaceWeather today: Earth is entering a stream of debris from an unknown comet, and this is causing one of the most intense meteor showers of the year.  Ironically, most sky watchers won’t notice because the shower peaks in broad daylight.  We only know it’s happening because a radar in Canada is picking…

Not Celebrating Mothers’ Day?

Perhaps Lemuralia is more your speed… The Romans would take this time, right after the apex of the thinning of the veils, to purge their homes of evil spirits.

Today is Astrological Beltane

Beltane is a cross-quarter celebration, meaning it’s halfway between an Equinox and a Solstice (the other cross-quarters are Samhain, Imbolc, and Lughnasadh or Lammas). As such, it is marked by astrological features rather than calendrical ones. People note its passing on the calendar because it’s easier for most people to think that way, but Beltane…

Living in Harmony

When we live in more urbanized areas, it’s considerably more challenging to connect to the Spirit of Place, to nature, and to the ancestors (I am using the term here to signify those who used the land before us). I find, though, that even in the heart of Nature, in places like Maui, many non-local…

The Transformational Energy of the Equinox at the New Moon/Eclipse

At 2:36am Thursday night into Friday morning (Pacific time) there will be a full solar eclipse. Of course, we won’t see it on the west coast of the United States (or anywhere in the US), because it will be nighttime. That does not mean we won’t be affected by the energy. That moment in time,…
