Cycles, Oct. 27: In Times of Change, Stillness Is Essential
|
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. When emotions run high, I turn to the Main Central Flow from Jin Shin Jyutsu. Just a few minutes of stillness, hands on the body, and everything starts to feel steadier—more doable, less overwhelming. Lately, I’ve been doing a lazy version of it—placing my right hand on the upper chest (middle sternum) and the left on the lower chest area. I recently saw Lee Harris do the same during one of his Initiation classes as a grounding practice. And speaking of stillness—I just released a new Effortless Reality Podcast episode on how to find it amid everyday chaos. It’s one of my favorites so far. You can listen on Spotify or watch on YouTube. Best, Tatiana Cycles Lab Tonight, Solar Return Charts, Oct. 27, 19:00 US EDTWorkbook in Google Doc format (feel free to download even if you are not attending our Cycles Lab tonight) Note: The workbook for download here is a limited version. I saved the specific examples and interpretations for class tonight.

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.

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,...
