Highlights for Jan. 6-13, 2019

by April • January 7, 2019

I have this theory that everything and everyone has someone who is designed to love them.There are folks who love cars, quilts, cats, guitars, Fiesta ware, old vinyl albums, flamingos, mushrooms, and circus posters. I watched a great documentary about a typewriter shop in Berkeley, and marveled at the loving artisans who so love typewriters that when a parts manufacturer went out of business, they began fashioning replacements by hand…

Capricorn Solar Eclipse: The Year of Maybe

by April • January 4, 2019

This year’s assignment is to pry our fingers away from Capricorn/Saturn/Pluto safety blankets such as boundaries, limitations, fear, externalized authority, and the need to feel in control. This first Solar Eclipse of the year insists, in no uncertain terms, that we let go of NO.

Highlights for Dec. 31, 2018-Jan. 6, 2019

by April • December 30, 2018

The tension between high-energy Mars and restrained Saturn will color the next three weeks with frustration. That’s not necessarily a bad thing; after all, an out-of-control toddler who is hyped up on sugar is frustrated when her mother calls a time-out, but the rest of the world breathes a sigh of relief. Saturn represents the civilizing force that funnels wild energy into productive channels.

Highlights for Dec. 24-30, 2018

by April • December 24, 2018

Given that it’s the last week of the calendar year, I think it’s a good time to do what many of us do at year’s end, which is take stock of the year that’s past and a preview of the new one ahead.

Cancer Full Moon: Belonging

by April • December 20, 2018

Being with family or away from them; reminders of holidays from youth; estrangements and losses that ache like an arthritic shoulder in cold weather… we may celebrate the holidays or not, but we can’t easily separate them from the legacy of family.

Highlights for Dec. 17-23, 2018

by April • December 17, 2018

It’s fashionable to blame Mercury retrograde for everything from lost car keys to traveling mishaps. But its real message is about the value of occasionally stepping out of frantic, schedule-driven time and surrendering to the full experience of the present.

Sagittarius New Moon: Walkabout

by April • December 4, 2018

few years ago, just before a Sagittarius New Moon, our indoor cat Spike escaped the secure confines of our home and went walkabout. I soothed my anxiety by imagining him on a kind of exciting Spirit Quest, possibly involving medicinal-grade catnip. When he returned 36 hours later, Spike seemed calm and fairly mellow, if ravenously […]

Scorpio really shines when we need to look out for ourselves against falsehoods, manipulation, or sabotage. I’ll bet you’re better at detecting those than you were a month ago. Thank Scorpio for it.

Highlights Nov. 19-25, 2018

by April • November 18, 2018

As the Sun approaches Jupiter, newly in its own sign of Sagittarius, a tiny candle has at last been lit, emitting faint but growing warmth. It’s the day of Thanksgiving; prepare a meal and eat together, and remember the old times. Set a place for the departed, and be thankful for what you have left.

Gemini New Moon: Grownups at the Table

by April • November 18, 2018

In the same way I can hum certain songs from my youth without recalling more than a snippet of the lyrics, I could not tell you what the adults at that table spoke about. It didn’t matter to me in the least. It just mattered that the voices I loved were swirling around me like a protective cloud. It meant that the grownups were on the scene, and I was safe.
