HIGHER THOUGHTS
Up in the Air
As months go, July lends itself to jumping off the hamster wheel of life and into the road less traveled. This is not only driven by gentler weather patterns in the Northern Hemisphere but school vacation schedules and yes, nurturing Cancer the Crab energy. Warm,...
Firing on All Engines: Pistons Working Overtime
Honestly, the word that best captures the energy of June 2025 is piston. I grew up in a mechanically inclined household but still had to look up the meaning of piston. From the Cambridge American Dictionary: piston noun /ˈpɪs·tən/ an engine part, usually...
Bonfire of Vitality
May links us to planting season. We till the soil of our lives and focus on what we want to grow, to see blossom and eventually harvest. May is inevitably entwined with Taurus, the first earth sign of the zodiac. It rules resources both tangible and intangible, such...
The World Keeps Turning
As April begins, it is helpful to remember now the phrase “be in the world, not of the world”. Of course that isn’t so easy when so much chaos reigns around us. If you feel as though you are wandering around in a stupor, you are in very good company, especially the...

Not a very sexy title for this January forecast, but like the sign Capricorn itself, it cuts to the chase and clearly spells out the message. And while the Sun cycles through Capricorn during most of January, it is innovative Aquarius that sets the tone for the first...
Deep and Dark December
We are IN DEEP now: the muck and the mire stirred up by the election in the United States last month, the froth of sludge brewing for years now, wounds festering beneath the surface infected by eons of hurt and trauma. Let’s be honest. No magic wand, no one pill or...
Treasure Hunt
Hard not to mention the presidential election in the United States this month. With so much at stake, with the country divided so deeply, ignoring the election would be to pretend a tiger wasn’t in the room. However, rather than focusing on who will win the...
