Hello Reader, This morning, ChatGPT greeted me with an unexpected offer: a review of my 2025. Out of curiosity, I said yes. What followed was a reflection of how it has come to see me, shaped entirely by our conversations throughout the year. A picture is worth a thousand words Here is how ChatGPT sees me, distilled from countless conversations...

Hello Reader, Whether you are hoping for an improved relationship, better health, or a new, more satisfying job, the answer begins with yourself. Why? Look at your astrological chart. The first house of Self reflects the body and its state, including health. The seventh house of Relationships is diametrically opposite the first, mirroring...

You’re receiving this because at some point, you chose to ride the cosmic waves instead of resisting them—and signed up for our Cycles newsletter... Hello Reader, The days between the US Thanksgiving holiday and the New Year always put me in a reflective mood. Beyond musings on true gratitude, my mind naturally drifts toward the year behind and the one rising on the horizon. Curiosity always gets the better of me, and I spend these last weeks poring over my astrological chart to glimpse what...

Hello Reader, I was preparing for tonight’s Cycles Lab on Solar Return Charts—you can still hop in if you feel called—when I was reminded again how the Moon always brings change. She tugs at our moods and comfort zones, and before we know it, something shifts—inside or out. Today, the Moon is in Capricorn, a sign that favors quiet focus over drama. It’s a good day to simplify, get things done, and pause long enough to catch your breath—especially with Mercury Retrograde approaching on Nov 9....

Hello Reader, Why is nobody looking at Solar Returns as part of a longer arc? I’ve never found a book, a class, or even a mention of it. Even my astrological software won’t let me create charts beyond the immediate year. I had to switch to another app and get creative before I could look at my Solar Returns for the past three years. When I asked why on the software’s help site, they said, “Nobody needs it.” Really? I can’t believe I am the only one who uses this easy and powerful way to see...

Hello Reader, Welcome back to Cycles. In just over a day, the Moon will reach fullness and enter Earth’s shadow in a total Lunar Eclipse. You may already feel the shift—last night it rose through the trees, stark in size and color, a vivid reminder that this is a powerful time for release. A Dream Practice Two nights ago, I asked my guides to heal subconscious trauma, guilt, and regrets while I slept. The Full Moon is ideal for release, so I thought: why not ask for the big help? Sure enough,...

Hello Reader, My birthday passed just ten days ago, and the vibe of my life has shifted dramatically. You can glimpse the flavor of the year ahead by looking at your Solar Return chart—the snapshot of the sky at the moment the Sun returns to your birth position. I did just that for myself, and here’s what I found. Last year, both my Sun and Moon landed in the twelfth house—the domain of hidden work and behind-the-scenes effort. And indeed, I spent much of my time finding my footing in a new...

Hello Reader, Mercury Turns Direct: Insights and Chaos Mercury has been retrograding since July 18. Today, it stations and turns direct. The second retrograde season of the year is over—did you gather any insights? I’ve been flooded with them: a new fall Cycles class (more on that when the Sun enters Virgo and I can tap its organizing energy), physics courses at work, and plenty of ideas with no particular home. The result? Chaos in my head. The Transition Period: Don’t Rush It We are now...

Hello Reader, Well, Uranus certainly wasted no time making an entrance. Yesterday it crossed into Gemini at 0°, and just two hours earlier I got a call I never expected: a project I proposed last year was suddenly approved and fully funded—seven months after I’d written it off. That’s Uranus energy in action. Sudden, out of the blue, impossible to miss. Of all the slow-moving planets, Uranus is the one you feel most clearly because of its abruptness and surprise. Have you noticed any...
