The Moon was Full in Aquarius at 8:58a PDT and the Sun is in Leo. Lots of light shining through at the moment! With light comes shadow, but more about that later. By shadow and light, I don’t mean positive or negative. They are expressions of the energies of life which we can tap into during the phases of the moon, flavored by what sign it is in. I know I’ve said it before, every time I hear “Aquarius,” the song “Age of Aquarius” runs through my mind. That's the kind of exper

The "hike," which is more a trek, didn't end up as I had planned.*Teaser: It's all about perception. It's about the stories we tell ourself.

Today would have been my Mom’s 68th birthday. Yesterday marked 21 years since she left this earthly plane. She was strong, kind, a little crazy (maybe a lot crazy), and an inspiration. We had many laughs and many fights. I’ll never forget the day I got the call about her brain tumor. It was just shortly after her birthday. She did things in the last year which the doctors said she would never do. I was able to help take care of her for a few months. There are many things I wo

Have you been feeling a little pulled apart the last couple days? Or perhaps your emotions are riding a see-saw? Don’t worry you’re not alone. The moon was at its most full tonight at 5:11 ET. It is the fourth full moon this Spring and is called a “Blue Moon.” This won’t happen again until 2021. The moon is in the sign of Scorpio, a fixed water sign. It’s not flowy and moving, with emotions at the forefront like Pisces. The waters in Scorpio are still, opting for stubbornness

Mother's Day isn't an easy day for some people, like me, who have lost their moms.

Taurus is symbolized by the Bull and is ruled by the planet Venus. I talked a little bit about Venus and Taurus in my last two Moon Musing Blogs. Taurus, an Earth sign, energy feels stable grounded, and connected. Venus energy is all the beauty, love, aesthetics, and coziness. The Moon LOVES being in Taurus! This New Moon is a great time to get out in nature, nurture yourself, and visualize abundance. Get back to the basics and make a commitment to yourself and the Earth. Hoo

Truth- anytime I hear the Moon, or any other planet is in Aquarius, “This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius” runs through my head. It’s happening right now. It helps me to remember what the qualities of this flowy, airy sign are. I envision the 60’s, Haight/Ashbury, free-love, forward thinking, willing to be creative, find the sparks of life. It’s ruled by the planet, Uranus, also possessing qualities of breakthroughs and sudden awakenings. More about this further down. D

Another Full Moon is upon us. Can you feel it? I talked about my relationship to the moon and a bit about the significance of a full moon in my blog Full Moon Frenzy, if you want a quick recap. La Luna The Moon is representative of our feminine energy, a yin quality. Yin is half of the Taoist concept of the complimentary and contradictory forces in the universe. Yin energy is intuitive, inward, resting, and imaginative. We all have masculine and feminine energy, gender does n

Everyone’s over here talking about what they’re doing to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, regardless of whether they’re Irish or not. I’m over here thinking, it’s just another Sunday. The Weekend My Life Changed It wasn’t always this way though. The last time I “celebrated,” or aka “just another reason to get drunk with an excuse,” was 15 years ago. I remember it very clearly because it was a weekend my life changed. I remember it not because it was special or that something memo
