It is a busy time of year for me moving back to the US from Belize, and driving the RV closer to my brother in Texacoma from the Texas coast. My availability for readings is limited until December.
Thank you as always for your readership, understanding, and support.
Peace & Light,

October 2024 - Datebook 2024
The upcoming New Moon Solar Eclipse in Libra on the 2nd brings a sense of being dropped into the middle of a lively hoedown! Just like in a dance, it's time to find a partner and gracefully whirl across the dance floor. This time signals the need for a fresh start, new steps, and a reevaluation of the past. No longer are you dancing alone in front of a mirror; there's a real, live partner looking back at you, and it's time to embark on a new venture. Introducing a new element into the mix requires adjusting and finding balance to ensure progress and stability. Embrace the possibilities, learn the intricate footwork, and dance with elegance and grace, avoiding any missteps along the way.
Mercury moves into Scorpio on the 13th, intensifying communication and encouraging deeper exploration. Make the most of this period to engage in meaningful conversations and thorough research. However, be mindful not to let suspicion or secrecy overshadow your communication.
Jupiter Retrograde begins on the 9th, and starts a time of philosophical introspection and spiritual growth. As the planet of abundance and luck retreats, it prompts us to reassess our personal growth, ethical values, and life philosophies. This period is not about external expansion but rather a journey inward. It's an opportunity to explore our inner cosmos, re-evaluate our moral compass, and realign with our higher truths. Jupiter Retrograde nudges us to question our assumptions, broaden our horizons, and embrace wisdom that comes from deep within. It's the universe's gentle reminder that growth is not just an outward surge, but also an inward dive. This Jupiter Retrograde season, take time to pause, reflect and reassess. Remember, the journey of personal expansion is not always linear, but a circular one, where looking back can sometimes lead us forward.
The power-packed Pluto stations direct on the 11th, marks a significant phase of transformation and regeneration. Pluto, the planet of rebirth and profound change, embarks on its forward journey, bringing to the forefront issues revolving around power, control, and hidden truths. It's an optimum time to release outdated beliefs and destructive habits that no longer work for your highest purpose. Like a phoenix rising from its ashes, every end is merely a precursor to a new beginning. Embrace the changes, for it's in transformation (Pluto) that we truly find ourselves.
On the 13th, Mercury enters Scorpio, bringing an air of secrecy for the next few weeks. It seems like everyone is guarding their thoughts as if they were copyrighted, making it challenging to extract ideas. Important information is often kept hidden until you pass some sort of test, but once honest and open discussions begin, they delve into profound depths.
The Full Moon in Aries on the 17th embodies the essence of the "Hunter's" Moon, with its wild pursuit and unpredictable twists. Amidst the flurry of activity, it can be challenging to keep up while reaping the rewards of your hard work. Instead of rushing through it all and potentially scaring off opportunities, take a moment to quietly observe and patiently await the perfect moment to seize success. Remember, you've come this far with caution, so don't let the pressure derail your efforts. Stay composed… then strike when the time is right.
Venus enters Sagittarius on the 17th, bringing a delightful sense of joy and humor. Right now, a hearty belly laugh is all it takes to satisfy everyone, and there's no need for refined taste to make an impact. In fact, subtleties may not be in high demand, so don't expect your nuances to be fully appreciated. Instead, embrace the exuberance that everyone else is embracing, or simply enjoy your own quiet moments. And remember, there's nothing wrong with indulging in some slapstick humor, as it remains a timeless classic.
The Sun ends the month moving into Scorpio on the 22nd, a sign associated with deep and hidden emotions. The theme for the upcoming month may involve exploring these depths, while also avoiding distractions. This can create intense and mysterious encounters when you're connecting with someone on a deep level, but it can also leave you in complete mystery when you're not.
