Please note: This blog post is designed to make you think, not to make you feel bad. In case you were wondering. Equality’s a funny thing. If I ask you if you’re pro-equality, most people would answer “yes,” some people would ask for clarification, but I suspect that few people would say that any one…

Limbo
In looking at upcoming patterns, I see that this week will be off to an unusual (or at least interesting) start. The Full Moon is tonight (8:53 Pacific). At the exact moment she becomes full, she also moves out of the sign of Cancer and doesn’t move into Leo for over 24 hours. When the…

Equal Footing
Legends, mythology, and stories abound with people giving up their worldly possessions on the path to enlightenment. I think a lot of people don’t really get what that’s about. I’m not sure I did until recently. Maybe I still don’t, but I have a different perspective on it today. One of my guides is someone…
Updates and Sun Storms
I was wondering why I was feeling so drained, and then this showed up in my inbox: Solar activity is high. A pair of large sunspots is crossing the center of the solar disk, and both are crackling with flares. The strongest so far, an X1.8-class flare on Dec. 20th, caused a strong HF radio…

Epidemic of Sadness
I had a massive mood drop yesterday, and when I mentioned it to friends, it would appear that I was one of many. This leads me to believe that there’s something going on, beyond seasonal changes. The astrological forecast wasn’t leading me to think it was planetary. My next choice is always to check SpaceWeather…
Weekly Round-Up of Web Links
Today is astrological Samhain. As a cross-quarter holiday, it is most appropriately observed at the mid-point between Autumnal Equinox and Winter Solstice. That is today, regardless of what the calendar might say. So the links I offer you this week are predominantly about doing ancestor work. Giving Thanks How Elves and serpents are saving Iceland…
Sometimes the Answer has a Few Levels
This moon cycle has been one of refocusing my path and my career, as well as refining my approach. As is typical for this psychopomp, action in arena B brings results in arena A, but such is the way of things. I pulled a card tonight, during my Full Moon meditation. As an aside, it…
