Firstly, my apologies for the long absence. Since I began this newsletter in 2014, I was very committed to reaching out to you with astrological updates at least twice a month, around the full and new moons. Except for my maternity leave, I think I only missed two or three of those opportunities.
This summer, mothering a toddler and preparing to move for the second time in two years, things piled up so much that I was not able to update you consistently. So for that I do apologize... but I also want to let you know that Jyotish has not fallen to the wayside for me. My precious "work hours" each week have been spent either continuing with clients or studying with my Jyotish teacher, Steven Highburger.
I'm excited to say that the many concepts we've been working with have really enriched my ability to see into a chart and a life, and support clients with more detail and insight. Two of the things I've been practicing are refining my ability to choose a good muhurta (auspicious moment), and working with the amshas, or the divisional charts that can indicate a lot about the timing of things in specific areas of life.
Before moving into our new home, I worked with my husband's and my own charts (and my son's, to some extent), as well as the current astrological circumstances to choose an auspicious time to bless our new home and make the move "official" at a time that offered the most opportunity for our family's future happiness. I had taken a deep dive with this a few years back, and I am feeling like I've really integrated the concepts now and am looking forward to helping more clients choose auspicious moments for big events.
This month's new Moon (November 4th at 5:15 pm ET) marks Diwali, a festival that has already begun and honors the light as the days quickly begin to darken around us. This is an opportune moment to clean your house, light it up, and call in the blessings of Lakshmi for both material and spiritual prosperity.

If you haven't yet had a reading with me, I invite you to schedule your initial reading. If we have worked together before and you'd like to check in to have your chart read from an even deeper level, or work with me to plan a certain event for an auspicious moment, you may choose a coaching package or follow-up reading.
