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 how our years build upon one another. Or does it take a Ph.D. in physics to notice? 😉

Join me on Oct. 27 for a one-hour exploration of what Solar Return charts are and how to use them as a map for your upcoming year. We'll keep it simple without getting bogged down in astrological complexity. Don't forget to sign up no later than Wednesday, Oct. 22 if you wish me to look at your Solar Return chart and send you a copy of it before the class starts. And yes, the class will be recorded and you will get access to it within two days after our class.

We are under a New Moon today—the best time to set intentions. You can set them any time, of course, but there’s something special about this monthly moment when imagination and intuition pair with the Sun’s drive for expression. The New Moon opens a fertile window for insights and new beginnings.

This one occurs at the end of Libra (right on my Ascendant—yay!) and near the threshold of Scorpio. To support these two energies and make the most of this New Moon, try a simple Jin Shin Jyutsu self-help hold today: gently hold your index finger, or place your hands on the small of your back (at the area of SEL 23) and rest them there for 3–5 minutes or for as long as comfortable. I often do this while watching a movie and end up holding for much longer.

In Jin Shin Jyutsu, the energies of Libra and Scorpio correspond to Bladder and Kidney Function Energy (or the Bladder and Kidney Meridians in TCM). These flows support our existence by giving us strength and courage to face whatever comes our way—qualities especially needed in these days of fearful news and rising conflict around the world.

Best,

Tatiana

Invitation to Effortless Reality Yes, yes, we have all heard about the Law of Attraction, forgiveness, visualization, shadow work, and the rest. Buddha, Jesus, and many other teachers have articulated these spiritual principles time and again. And yet humanity is not exactly leaving in a mass enlightened exodus, is it? In Effortless Reality, I document, step by step, how I test these principles in real life — what works, what does not, and how to apply timeless wisdom to your specific circumstances. It is my report from the front lines, so to speak: personal stories, failures, a-ha moments — with a sprinkle of physics and a generous dose of personality.
