Harvest time is here. A time of reaping. A time to balance the scales and reap what we’ve sown. Today I was full of rage, and then tears. There is still much out of balance in our world. I sat outside in my backyard with a cup of cacao and made a sacred fire. I wrote my anger on paper and burned it with tobacco and frankincense. I know I feel more than what’s mine. I feel into timelines and lifetimes. I feel into archonic structures and human oppression. I feel into the blackness of no feeling, the iron cold edges of Saturn’s sickle. When time is up things have to balance no matter how anyone feels about it, the sacred structures of the universe must stand. Still there is so much being dissolved, so much falling, so much clinging yet to what we think we know.

I’ve been silent for a while. Feeing. Watching. Seeing. Going deep into my own issues. Searching for the medicine. I’m ready to speak again. I’m committing to practice sharing oracles on Mystic Mondays! I’m excited to share weekly astro weather, reflections, yoga, and other kooky authentic expressions for your weekly inspiration.

This week the asteroid Lilith is in the early degrees of the watery sign of Scorpio which rules the second chakra, our sexuality. Lilith asteroid is associated with primal feminine rage. Rage that the life tree was cut down. Rage for all the centuries of injustices done to the earth and humans. And especially rage for the rape, domination and control energy that has been perpetuated for far too long.

We’re seeing that rage played out in the media with all the coverage of ‘climate change.’ And while our awareness of the need to care better for our environment is critical, the political machine churns on. Indigenous people have been teaching us about how important care for the earth is for a long time, but now the media has (allowed? directed?) a white fiery young woman leading the charge. Yes she’s inspiring. But what is the machine using her for? Who’s handling her? And how can we be sovereign agents of caring for the earth without being told what we have to worry about next? They tell us: fly less, eat less meat. But does this campaign really have the earth’s highest good and all her creatures at the end? Or is it another agenda of mass distraction while we continue to march towards self destruction? All the while Bill Gates is trying to figure out how to block out the sun, our skies have strange chem trails, and our food is being sprayed and our bees are dying. The point we are all considering is: why is it changing? Are we being drummed up to be afraid of one more thing? Or are we being taught how to grow our own food, how to make peace? Are the folks with the money ready to stop their big pollution businesses-or are we going to trickle the blame down to that person who’s not recycling? Is the climate changing because the earth is now moving through a part of the universe that has more photons—more light— and so it’s causing everything to heat up? Or is it because we are not caring for the earth. Maybe it’s both. What’s crucial is that we learn to trust our own instincts again, and be sovereign agents of change that our souls have come here to be.

Lilith asteroid is presenting sitting on my natal Uranus which is in opposition to transiting Uranus, which means I am really feeling the electricity of rage throughout the ages. I know you sensitive men want us women to be soft, but there are times for us to release, stomp our feet into the earth and say: ENOUGH.

I invite you to join me in a little ceremony to bring balance to these times: chants Kleem Ra Ra and Dheem Ra Ra to heal heart pain and remove negative energy <3.

Enjoy the fall colors and retreat with me by the Red River. Listen to inspirational speakers, practice gentle yoga and meditation, connect with your soul and other women. Tickets available here.
