Happy Solstice! The longest day of the year is coming up and during a time that is/used to be my favorite time of the year. It makes sense that the winter holidays coming during Sagittarius, ruled by Jupiter, the bringer of joy, as the fire signs like having a good time, and Sagittarius likes to … Continue reading Pre-Solstice Transits and No Winter Wonderland

You were not born on a cusp.
No, really. You weren't. I'll stop you right there and repeat: You. Were. Not. Born. On. A. Cusp. You were not born on a cusp. Period. I don't care if your birthday is October 23rd, November 22, or December 22nd and for the love of the universe: Virgos, stop telling me that you were born … Continue reading You were not born on a cusp.

Public Service Announcement
To everyone who is about 40 - 42 years old right now: You're not the worst person in the world, you don't deserve to be alone, and if you still haven't figured out what it is you're on Earth to fix, you still have time to figure it out. Thanks.
Neptune Transiting Ascendant
This is the major transit in my life now. So far, I’m feeling the effects, and let me tell you: it’s far easier if you embrace the confusion, take it one day at a time, and focus on the invisible and the joy in the little things than on the fact that you’re kind of … Continue reading Neptune Transiting Ascendant
Cowardice in the Chart: Mars in Aspect to Saturn or Chiron
**** TRIGGER WARNING: Normally, I wouldn’t write this. Hell, I’m usually too busy right now to update this blog on a regular basis.

The importance of aspects … Continue reading T-Squares and the Missing Sign: The Astrological Witching Rod
Born in the Wrong Place, the Wrong Time, the Wrong Planet
Those of us with natal oppositions, or two planets 180 degrees from each other, are people at odds with ourselves and our environment. If we consider that the early environment, our first relationships, and our personal origins are in the birth chart, oppositions can manifest not just as internal, but external struggles. Just to clarify … Continue reading Born in the Wrong Place, the Wrong Time, the Wrong Planet
