2020 will be ...
A year of heart I told myself, a place where I first was inspired to look at relationship, at how desire has previously defined 2019, and I felt beyond that. It felt rich and potent, and I felt strong in where I was coming from. A job I wanted, a partner I was jazzed on, all the things.
The year started out so strong, a feeling of connection beamed from me. And then slowly hints of of endings came into my reality and then it wasn’t slow anymore. The whole world changed, in a matter of days.
How quickly I can forget. How quickly the feeling of connectedness broke. How suddenly new habits form and my attention had been averted. It always amazes me, how quickly a fall happens. But on Sunday, Easter Sunday, this strange reminding came over me.
Heart ... heart... is there heart in this path? I looked around, the path looked strangely familiar. And I realized I had done what I like to call a good old BnF (back and forth). Revisiting lessons, going back then forth ... Ah yes desires, how fleeting they can be, and how I am always left wanting more.
2020 is now a year where wearing masks to the grocery store is not frightening but necessary. Where the invitation to find structure and self in these foreign times awaits or total no f***s given can be taken. A year to witness the fluctuations of emotions and living in uncertainty.
“Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself and yourself alone one question. Does this path have heart? If it does, the path is good. If it doesn’t, it is of no use.” Don Juan

Astro Update ~ Mars and the Drama Club.
In this post I will focus mostly on Mars, the planet that acts as the agent of the soul. Helping us pursue and bring action to our desires.
The past week as I have connected with friends and listened to what has been going on with them - with myself - a very distinct theme emerged. It was one around boundaries, specifically around being female and choosing to discard our feelings of unease in certain situations so to not rock the boat or bring unwanted attention.
Social situations, professional settings require us to show up in a certain way, but when we ignore these instinctual feelings of “this doesn’t feel right, or I am uncomfortable” the after effect is murky and for myself feels dirty - more than anything a betrayal to myself.
This is where Mars can be helpful, the warrior energy is willing to fight for what is wants, what it believes, and is not scared to rock the boat per say.
Mars has entered Capricorn in the cosmos and is now giving us the opportunity to bring action to all the s**t that has surfaced this past year. The conjunction of Saturn and Pluto has been steeping in the collective energy for some time now, and with the help of Jupiter and Mars action is finally becoming tangible.
For me, anger has been an emotion that has required some extra space in my attention. As a female most messages from society do not encourage us to be angry, but whenever I go into a space to do some internal exploration, anger is always the first emotion that comes up, repressed and seeking exposure.
Part of what I am learning is healthy expressions for anger. Activities, spaces that hold space for this emotion. Hot yoga, swimming, punching a pillow (yep I have done that) whatever floats your boat.
This month in astrology offers us an invitation to bring in action. I always find it helpful to remember we begin with yin, with reflection, THAN we move to intentional action. So where is Capricorn in your own chart? Where has all this energy been directed in your own personal life? Start there and then let Mars do its thing.
As our ancestors have said, as above - so below. ###

When moments in life consume every part of my attention and I am not retracing patterns of the past, not envisioning about the future- that’s a place I want to exist.
Idk about you, but I love to dream, to plan adventures, to chase shiny things And I love that part of myself. But these days after talks with friends, readings from teachers, I have been finding joy right here, in this moment. There is sadness I touch everyday no doubt, traumas that don’t make the social media feed. But I’m learning to love them too. I’m learning that I can be both. Joyful and still hold space for it all.
I come from a lineage of Leo’s - the big hearted playful lions, and Sagittarius- the truth seeking travelers. I was made from fire and born water. A Steamy combination of fire and water. so-here I am, making jokes with snowmen, loving this polar world.

The intention ~ a place I keep returning too. This past New Moon which also happened to be on my solar return prompted special attention to this lunar happening and once again I asked myself, what is the intention for this lunar cycle, for this next solar voyage?
Soft & gentle I tell myself, soft and gentle with myself and others. I was reminded of what happens when I show up and participate - and how often I can get focused on the outcome and loose sight of the magic in each moment regardless of the result.
And more than anything an intention of ~ faith and trusting in the transitions of life. Loosening my grip and hold while still staying attuned and focused on the path ahead.
So here are a few shots from my Pisces honoring - a meditation with my plants and candles and tarot ~ A sweet potato chocolate torte (made with no refined sugar) and toasted cashews and final shot of a gift - it was a birthday of cups for me as my 28th Solar Return gifted me with over 4 amazing and beautiful cups from friends.

Astro Insight - The potential of Concentrated Capricorn~ image of the Strength card by Minnie Ripperton.
4 planets, 1 luminary, and the southern node of the moon all reside in the sign of Capricorn creating what astrologers call a Stellium.
The merging of planets can be understood in a way that imitates the powerful result of people gathering for a cause - their efforts become magnified as there is power in numbers. A strength that happens when a collective force unites.
The past year and half the astrology has been brewing up what I like to will call the Tension tea, a powerful and potent union of planets that has the potential for serious transformation (Pluto + Saturn conjunction). It may have felt like stagnant agitation- at least that is how I have experienced it.. But now that Jupiter and Mars have joined the club we get a new blend to work with.
Jupiter expands and blesses what it touches the Guru ~ Mars symbolic of the masculine brings action and the energy to pursue.
The time is ripe now to begin your quest. With reflection and intention - this elixir can give you the courage and energy to make the changes or pursue whatever it is that brings you closer to your truth, to your purpose.
Watch out for the impulse of reaction, know where you stand and what you are willing to fight for. How will you nurture life? What are the values that hold your actions and existence in line with?
Exciting times ahead. Check your own chart to find out what house Capricorn resides in your cosmic imprint. Let reflection and intention propel your actions

Yesterday someone told me that I inspire them to be authentic, to be who they are shamelessly.
And that made my heart so happy, because that is what I want- for myself and everyone. As I move closer to what is I want to do - what my dharma is - the message is always central to this - authentic living - embracing the weirdness, the depths, the silly - all of it. I want all of it for you & me.
So just a remember life is a dark comedy, and I love you.

A few pictures from this last full moon adventure.
The things I cherish - time outside, in the woods. Skiing along the Pines and the Furs while also spotting wild sage and brush, a collaboration of terrains.
Making food with friends and sharing laughs along the way.
And walks by myself.. where I see the yards of families who live here. I see the tire swings and spread out yards and wonder about many things. It makes me curious in a way I hope to always be.
