Today’s labyrinth walk was mostly an exercise in being present. One of the lovely things about doing this in the Fall (and fall seems to have finally begun here in Southern California), is that I get to walk the labyrinth barefoot. In the summer months, the concrete is just too hot. The labyrinth I walk…

Numerology of the Eclipse
It didn’t even occur to me to run the numerology on this event until I went put to look and, on coming back in the house, saw it was 2:22. Some numerologist I am… I’ll blame it on being under the weather, and the lunar astrology workshop I’m taking. Anyway… Interestingly, whether I run the…
Full Moon – Lunar Eclipse Tonight!
Tonight’s eclipse may be a type of “levelling up” for a lot of people.
Harvest Moon
Full moon is Monday night. Her influence carries over until the wee hours of the morning on Friday. The full moon tends to be a magical time for people. Sometimes that’s good, and we are inspired; sometimes it’s less desirable, and people get a little wacky. When a woman’s cycle syncs up with the full…
Well, This Is Awkward…
I’m seeing a pattern. Machinery going haywire. Extreme behavior. People’s heads being loudly negative. But also… Flashes of insight. Drastic life changes. It seems easier than usual to change long-programmed behaviors. And… A lot of buzzy energy. Being grounded seems challenging. People tending towards hypomanic (think overly productive with a chance of overspending, rather than…
Interesting Solar Activity
Are you having trouble sleeping? SpaceWeather tells me Yesterday, July 30th, a dark magnetic filament on the sun erupted and hurled part of itself into space. The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory tracked a bright CME moving away from the blast site at 700 km/s. Although the CME is not coming straight for Earth, it does have…
Solar Calm
I received this missive from SpaceWeather this evening: Less than two weeks ago, the sun was peppered with large active regions. Now, the face of the sun is almost completely blank. Suddenly, the sunspot number and the sun’s x-ray output have dropped to their lowest levels in years. Is Solar Maximum finished? Probably not, but…
Solar Activity in the First Third of Mercury Retrograde (in Gemini)
I got an email from SpaceWeather this morning: Breaking a weeks-long spell of quiet, the sun erupted on June 10th, producing not one but two X-class solar flares. The source is a new sunspot just emerging over the sun’s southeastern limb. This active region is not squarely facing our planet. However, it will become increasingly…
10 Reasons You Might Want A House Clearing
I have been approached recently by people who are curious as to what a house clearing entails. While I bring many tools to the table, here are some reasons why you or someone you know might want to have a house clearing. (1) You just moved (or are moving into) a new place and want…
Milestone Celebrations
Rituals, celebrations, and ceremonies are our form of formal observation of chapter shifts or milestones. There are all sorts of these milestones throughout a person’s life. Some are celebrated in our society, others are not. Births, new home, weddings, finishing school, coming of age, birthdays, deaths – these have customs and somewhat familiar rituals. Other…
Full Moon in Scorpio
Full Moon isn’t usually my thing. This one was pulling on me and I couldn’t figure out why until I realized it was in Scorpio, which features strongly in my chart. If it’s calling you as well, here are some thoughts from the astrologers I read the most: Jessica Shepherd: “This Scorpio Full Moon wants…
The April 25th X-Class Solar Flare
Solar flare alert! On April 25th, an active region near the sun’s western limb erupted, producing an impulsive X-class solar flare. A pulse of extreme UV radiation from the flare ionized Earth’s upper atmosphere and caused a shortwave radio blackout on the dayside of Earth. However, a CME hurled into space by the explosion will…
