The only thing I have to do on July 31st is drop off the rent check. We still pay for rent by check here, another one of those stripped-down things about this building that I'm used to dealing with. August 1 is Lughnasa, Lammas, the midpoint between summer and autumn in which the harvest begins. … Continue reading Lughnasa without Grain

Fuck the 4th of July
Fuck the 4th of July. It's on my list of no-go holidays with Thanksgiving now. SCOTUS is a sacred cow that needs to be melted back into jewelry. And only in a country in which we don't put our fundamentalists in insane asylums where they belong but give them tax breaks to fleece the poor … Continue reading Fuck the 4th of July
It’s The Summer Solstice of 2022
Saturday was the last perfect spring day of the season here, and I got to enjoy it a bit. Sunday was a perfect late spring day. Monday was definitely a great day to stay in and get things done, and today, it was 100 degrees at one point. The flowers are long since gone and … Continue reading It’s The Summer Solstice of 2022
The Scorpio Lunar Eclipse of 2022
There's too much going on in my non-astrology life for me to stop and comment on the news, all the news, or even just the crises. I will say that if Roe v. Wade does get overturned and someone needs a place to crash in Chicago en route to camping in Illinois, I have a … Continue reading The Scorpio Lunar Eclipse of 2022
It’s an Eclipse for Beltane and a Pisces Stellium
It's the last day of April, a partial solar eclipse in Taurus, Walpurgisnacht, Beltane. Lots of stuff going on! That partial solar eclipse is conjunct Uranus, Mercury just entered Gemini, and Venus is exactly conjunct Jupiter and both are still conjunct Neptune in Pisces. I know the wisdom is to not fuck with eclipse energy, … Continue reading It’s an Eclipse for Beltane and a Pisces Stellium
Two Months’ Hiatus: Where I’m At
Recently, I had a dream that a fellow astrologer wanted me to join a media project to use astrology to predict the weather and establish patterns of climate change. I said no, because there's scientists who do a much better job of that, and why would you need astrology to predict the weather and establish … Continue reading Two Months’ Hiatus: Where I’m At
Happy Equinox!
Happy New Year! The Sun entered Aries, making an exact inconjunct to the Moon in Scorpio, so talk about a lot of Martian energy. We are now almost a month into the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the pandemic is having a quiet resurgence in China and Europe as restrictions are lifted. Oil companies have … Continue reading Happy Equinox!
The Pluto Return isn’t about you and I’m taking a break
The Pluto Return isn't for you or about you. Russia has declared war on Ukraine. This is not directly related to the Unites State's Pluto return...or is it? Since Putin installed Trump who gave Putin the green light, this is our problem, at least in part. And everyone who voted for Trump, supported him, and … Continue reading The Pluto Return isn’t about you and I’m taking a break
Happy Imbolc and Other Things
Happy Imbolc! I know I've written about Imbolc before, the midwinter celebration in which we welcome the sun back. Here in the Great Lakes region, we're expecting a winter storm. It's about 45 and rainy here, but it will cool down and the snow will come. Imbolc is one of the Earth celebrations, so it's … Continue reading Happy Imbolc and Other Things
Cancer Full Moon Opposing Pluto: Rock Your Baby
I didn't want to have to go out again today, but I keep forgetting staples when I go to the store, even if they're on my list - a trip to Marianos, a trip to Aldi's - and an Amazon order. For a month, I've been eating a diet I call "food that doesn't hurt … Continue reading Cancer Full Moon Opposing Pluto: Rock Your Baby
