One of the most important mindset blocks you could possibly work on in the coming years is that voice that says “you’re not good enough.” We’re on the edge of a big shift. Software is getting an overhaul, as AI gets integrated into more and more tools, and as new tools spring out of AI. We’re going to see an explosion of tools in the next few years. Digital helpers of every type. And they’re going to be good at what they do. Really good. Nay-sayers right now are like, “eh, it’s not very good at [insert whatever topic here]. …
Neptune energy, comin’ right up!
Neptune is comin’ in hot in the next few weeks! Okay not really, I’m pretty sure it’s very cold out that direction. But regardless of temperature, let’s take a look at what Neptune represents and what’s coming up. Neptune is the release of boundaries, and everything that means, both literal and metaphorical. This is the space where dreams evolve, where enthusiasm and creativity play, and where imagination rules. Your imagination, btw, may create the imaginary, but that is only one of it’s many functions. Imagination is also your access point not only to creativity and adaptation, but also into mystical …
Triple Conjunction This Week
Alright y’all, this week has some big isht going on! First we’ve got the New Moon — yeah yeah, big deal. This pales (no pun intended) in comparison to the conjunction that’s coming up in the wee hours on Thursday. Venus, Mars, and Pluto form a rare triple conjunction this week. This peaks on Thursday, though I suspect it will feel the most potent on Wednesday the 2nd. Relationships are getting shook. Old, unsupportive, “relationship in name only” connections are breaking down. Any time Pluto brings a transformative touch to a situation, it’s not likely to be subtle. For some, …
Where do you picture “success”?
I’ve been hanging tarot cards on my wall recently (as one does), and building something of an abstract tree out of them. Each card’s placement has unexpectedly taken on meaning (much like, y’know, tarot – shoulda seen that coming). I picked up a card with the label “success.” I thought, “well, clearly this needs to go at the top of the tree, up here at the ‘end’ where fruit grows and all that.” As I pressed the tape against the wall, my body froze. Why? I wondered. Why is “success” up here? Far away? Out of reach? “At the end”? …
So … About This Portal
What the Lion’s Gate Portal is … and isn’t. Anytime someone says “portal,” you can color me excited. I love a good galactic energetic funnel right into my third eye – sign me up. As such, I love the idea of the Lion’s Gate Portal every August 8th, a time to open the comm lines to the spiritual world a little wider, download some new info, get manifesting, tap into transformative energy, yum. In trying to write from an astrological perspective this week, and I noticed … that was difficult. There didn’t seem to be anything super clear explaining what …
Would a Rose by Any Other Name …
And on the current season, one of the cast member’s title is “Motivational Speaker.” Now this dude is anything but motivational. It’s quite a contrast, between his title and his actions. Coincidentally (or, you know, not), I recently came across this quote: “Were I to crown myself King, should I be King? Rather should I be an object of disgust or pity.” [Austin Osman Spare] The words echo: “Were I to crown myself King.” How often do you choose the labels you want? Sometimes, often – pronouns come to mind. It’s your right to choose your pronoun, no one else’s. (If …
Self-Care Is Not Always Sunny
Sometimes, self-care looks like anger.Sometimes, it’s running as hard as you can into a strong wind.Sometimes, it’s wrestling a tree instead of hugging it. (Spoiler alert: it’ll probably be a tie.)These days, there’s a lot of focus on rest and relaxation when it comes to taking care of yourself. And it’s no surprise – as a culture, and particularly in the workforce, the pressure on the individual to produce has been out of sync with how the human body works for a long, long time.So rest is needed, no argument here.That doesn’t mean it’s the only kind of self-care.There’s an …
Moon Opposite Pluto: April 19th and May 16th, 2021
The moon’s opposite Pluto today, through tonight (PDT).If you’re feeling scared or maybe hopelessness, this might be a contributing factor. (Whew!) Pluto asks where you can transform. Where do you need to reimagine what’s possible. For the next couple months, Pluto is sending us an energy I call “The Boundary.” This powerful position asks you to look at where you may be limiting your thoughts and expectations. Pluto throws these limits under a microscope for you to examine and tear down (if you are so inclined). When you throw the moon in there in opposition, the emotions feel bigger and …
Doubt Your Guides.
Doubt your guides. Yeah, I said it. I work with my guides every day. I trust them deeply. I’m regularly in awe of what they have to offer. And. I’m okay with doubting them from time to time. THEY are okay with me doubting them. Doubt and trust are not mutually exclusive. Doubt and trust can work in harmony – dancing together to bring you to a place that feels good and true. But why doubt? Why not just trust, when our guides are working in our best interests, and can see more than us, and can understand more than …
New Moon Sunday, April 11
Y’all, New Moon on Sunday! As an Aries energy, it’s about new beginnings, fresh starts. But hold up, that’s not all. When we zoom in a little closer, this positioning is the Archetype I call “The Expansion.” It’s frisky. Wriggly. Wants to pop. It can be a time of brand new beginnings if that’s what you need. But it might be a time to explore what it looks like to have your shit level up. There’s a secret hiding in this energy. Expansion requires detachment – a willingness to release the past, and move forward into the future without expectation …
