I had just come home from my walk, assaulted by pollen, and I thought to myself: the moon in a fetal position. I had already had a blog post planned about mothers and mothering and the moon. I thought of my own Moon Pluto conjunction with its intimations of death and...
Astro Alert + Availability This Week!
Today we still feel the Venus square Uranus weather. What do you value? What's important to you?Is it radically changing?Who are you? Venus matters (relationships, for example) may feel precarious. All of this under a SCORPIO MOON including Moon opposite Uranus. Can't...
From My Crone Perch: Venus This Weekend
How did it get to be the end of October already? I’m taking a quick break before I get back to work, making videos for the Patreon. It’s a real Venus-y weekend. We got a Venus Chiron and a Venus Jupiter so my mind is filled with Venus thoughts, and yours may be...
Welcome Mercury Retrograde
I announce this periodically, that it’s time to get back to blogging. Well, here I am again. Here I am gonna try again. Really. Here we go. I just got back from a brisk morning walk in the chilly sunshine Tuesday and there’s zero point really in bemoaning the fact...
Adventures in Meadowsweet, A Saturn Story
So I made a visit to an herbalist to talk about my health, and I’ve started to brew teas made of dried leaf (or maybe bark or maybe flower—can’t remember now) and I’m realizing that I haven’t touched the plant matter with my fingers. I’ve stuck my nose in the tiny...
Mercury Retrograding + Crone Time + Stop Time
I was trying to work on my YouTube channel. Got myself a gimbal and a mic and was having technical difficulties (hello Mercury retrograde) and was washing the dishes when I thought to myself: I’m not a YouTuber. I’m a writer. I’m a writer who realized she was pretty...
Pluto is a Torch: I Want to Become an Expert in What Was Shattered
(This post is from my Substack)”I want to become an expert in what was shattered.”That quote above - and I didn’t quote the whole sentence — is from Jeffrey Rubin’s new book, Psychotherapy Case Studies: Escaping the Prison You Didn’t Know You Were In. I started...
Mars Conjunct the South Node in Virgo
Routines, health, homework, housework, purity. These are some Virgo keywords. There are many Virgo keywords. Sometimes, but not always, when I talk to the Virgo people, they ask about health. They ask about work. But what’s underneath it all is purity, that...
Uranus in Gemini: Expecting the Unexpected
How strange. I went to go post at my old site and it wasn't working so here I am, after sending them (the host) an email. Not even an error message. Nothing. Is MoonPluto Astrology gone forever? I was going to say -- over there -- that I was feeling self-reflective,...
Boom-Splash:Jupiter Enters Cancer!
Catching up: One more. We’ve got one more big change on the way: Uranus entering Gemini on July 7th. All my recent blogs posts have mostly been lists of slow moving planets in new signs. Hard to wrap my mind around it all. I’ve been blogging since 2011. Everything is...
