Warning: This post may piss you off…If one more person tells me that their event will “change my life forever” I may have to hit them with an overripe banana.

Gratitude on Thanksgiving
Play Podcast (Originally Posted: 11/30/10; Revised: 11/28/13) As we enter the Holiday Season, I notice people’s mindsets tend to line up along a continuum: one extreme experiences the joy of the season, while the other wants it to be over as quickly as possible. We all have the potential to delight in the joy of…
Wearing Blinders? Redefining “Success” during Mercury Retrograde
Play Podcast (6:07 minutes) During this Mercury Retrograde, I’ve been taking my own advice and have been revisiting the quality of my life. What’s surfaced has been interesting and frankly unexpected. Referring to my last article, I began to explore my “Home or Personal Life” (see Leo) and, in turn, how that winds up affecting…
Your Ticket Out of “Crappy-Land” – Get Through a Bad Day
“What we resist, persists.” — Carl Jung Circumstances, real or imagined, can send us on a downward spiral. We can fight it, trying all the usual aphorisms: “look at the bright side”… “remember all the good” in an effort to play “keep away”, but sometimes we can’t seem to avoid that sign post up ahead:…
Are You Enough? Know Your Value
Too few of us know what “value” we bring to the world and are trapped by our Saboteurs into believing we are somehow “not enough”.

The Pilot of Your Soul: Your Patterns of Choice
Play Podcast People are often surprised when I talk about Astrology from the perspective of “choice”. Many seem to believe that astrology is about static, carved in stone, “the way it is”, fated information… and they couldn’t be more wrong. It’s the reverse that’s true; the wisdom of astrology actually increases your personal growth &…
The Success Zone
“Success” is a mysterious land for many of us. For some it’s like Shangri-La; a mystical place where everything is beautiful and always just out of reach. For others, “Success” is a “Twilight Zone”, even more frightening than failure, because it is pregnant with possibilities and potentially dashed expectations. In either case, our vision of…
Your Hero’s Journey – Take the Next Step with Your Sun Sign
It’s ironic, really… while many of us read about our “Sun Signs” in the daily Horoscope, we don’t know what to do with this information. According to Liz Greene* (awesome, famous astrologer) in her book The Luminaries, our Sun Sign actually serves as our personal hero’s “call to adventure”. Ms. Greene refers to Joseph Campbell’s…
From “Me” to “We” – Growing Compassion
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.” —The Dalai Lama People look at me funny… always have. Maybe it’s Pluto conjunct Uranus in my first… perhaps it’s just because you never know what I’m going to say. Heck, I rarely know what I’m going to…
