Cycles, Sep. 5: Dream Work at Full Moon

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,...

Cracks in glass

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...

Hello Reader, Once again, it is that time of the year. That one, where we all collectively hold our breath and start creating long lists of "don'ts" - don't buy a new car, don't go on trips, don't schedule job interviews, etc. Yes, we are approaching the August 2024 edition of Mercury Retrograde.

Oh my goodness, people! I just realized I had overlooked one of my email accounts for the last month. Yes, it is the one where many of you contacted me to tell me about the new site Effortless Reality, the new mini-classes, and more. I just responded to most of the emails, but I wanted to address some issues that were common. Thank you all for your feedback and encouragement. Your emails mean a lot to me. Something is wrong with the Squash Your Inner Critic, Part 4/5 email in the sequence....

Hello Reader, Did you miss me? Transformation takes so much energy that little is left for anything else. And I’ve been undergoing quite a transformation over the past two months — courtesy of Pluto. Website and Podcast I’ve added more content on my business site, Effortless Reality, and launched a podcast on Spotify to complement my upcoming book. Yes, it will eventually be available on Apple, Google, Amazon, and more — but there are only so many hours in a day. Interestingly, launching the...

Hello Reader, Mercury turned retrograde last Tuesday, May 10. Three times each year, the astrology community gets agitated about Mercury retrograde. And to an extent, they have a reason. But it’s not as bad as you might think. In fact, these retrograde periods are “nothing either good or bad,” to borrow from Shakespeare: “Only thinking makes it so.” And thinking is Mercury’s domain. So let’s think this through together. Mercury rules perception, intellect, and the stories we tell ourselves...
