Coming Soon: Divine Portals ๐
Have you been feeling this intense energy rising like a wave? For me, it began Friday under the Full Moon energies. ๐
Someone asked me that night at Music From The Cosmos if the Full Moon vibes are in effect even when the Moon isn't technically full, but looks like it. ๐
My response was, "How does it feel for you? Don't think about it. Feel it. Everyone is differently sensitive to energies."
Being receptive to the cosmic energies is just as important as understanding them at an intellectual level. ๐ค
After decades of being immersed in astrology, I can now feel a person's astrological signatures. Some are more obvious than others, but generally, I can construct some semblance of a person's horoscope through interaction alone.
And not because I'm an excellent astrologer (I am), ๐คจ but because I've learned that the astrology corresponds to energies that we're all feeling all the time. Anyone can do this with enough training and attention!
In addition to helping you understand yourself better, astrology can help you attune to, receive, and then navigate the energies of this reality.
Even if you don't know the particulars, your system is likely to be feeling that ... something ... approaches.
Am I right?
โญREMINDER: My monthly Astrological Guidance Circle is tomorrow, Thursday, October 5 at 6.30pm.
I'm sure none of us needs an excuse to talk astrology for the evening, lol. But if you need a bit of motivation, it's going to be a fun opportunity to chat more about Eclipse Season and personally ask me your juicy questions! ๐
For those of you outside of Nevada County, you're welcome to join us remotely.

๐ฅEclipse Season has arrived! ๐ฅ
Basically, we're under the eclipse juju from now through November 13. We typically begin feeling it two weeks before and two weeks after the first eclipse. (From lunation to lunation or the New Moon to Full Moon and then the next New Moon and so forth.)
Here's what you need to know:
๐โ The first is a New Moon solar eclipse on Saturday, October 14 at 10.55am PT in Libra.
๐ โ The second is two weeks later: A Full Moon lunar eclipse on Saturday, October 28 at 1.24pm PT in Taurus.
I keep hearing astrologers and enthusiasts using this word "portal" to describe the intensity of Eclipse Season.
Really? Portal? Le sigh. ๐
Today, I did what I always do when I take issue with a word choice โ I looked it up on my Merriam-Webster app (which obviously lives on my phone's home screen). #Gemini #Virgo #Mercury
I was surprised to find that "portal" doesn't have some hippy-dippy woo-woo definition implying that we're splitting dimensions and entering a vortex that will lead us into a new time-space reality under the dawning of a blah blah blah ...
It means simply, "door, entrance; especially: a grand or imposing one." ๐ช
Well, color me humbled. "Portal" is the EXACT right word to describe Eclipse Season!
During these weeks, we can get surprises, shocks, disruptions and/or be rerouted. It's a bit like playing Wheel of Fortune. Get ready for change, because that's what's being offered in spades! ๐ก
I encourage you to take a look at your calendar and block off Saturday the 14th and again Saturday the 28th.
If you spend these days in quiet contemplation, you'll make the most of the opportunities that almost always present under eclipses. ๐งโโ๏ธ
>> I don't recommend exerting yourself these days. Resting your Mind-Body-Spirit is very important while the energies are rising and climaxing.
โกTHE ASTROLOGICAL FORECAST
โ๐ง Mercury moves into Libra today at 5.08pm PT.
Mercury moves from one of his "home signs" (Virgo) into peaceable and diplomatic Libra. Thoughts and words are more prone to be gentle and equitable now. โ
We may also find that romance is definitely in the air. Both the Sun and communicative Mercury are focused on love and beauty for these next few weeks. ๐
>> Have you been delaying an important conversation or worrying about the best way to approach a tricky situation? If so, then call on these energies to help you find the right words and a fair, mutually-beneficial solution.
โ ๐ฅMars continues his challenging square over to Pluto. This is big, intense and volatile energy that comes to a head on Sunday evening.
Repressed anger can come out sideways, libido may increase and generally, we can feel stymied. ๐ฃ
Oh, and there's also the little problem of feeling like situations are against you or you're pointing the finger of blame rather than taking responsibility for your own feelings and actions.
How to make best use of not-so-pleasant energies? ๐
>> Remain mindful that anger is on the rise for the collective. Exercise often, and whenever possible, curb impulsive behavior.
๐โ Only six minutes after this culminating square between Mars and Pluto, beautiful Venus moves into humble Virgo!
I always pay closer attention to the days when there's a lot of cosmic activity. If multiple planets are having important movements in one day, then I expect that we'll see similar movement reflected in our own lives, too!
It's even more significant because Venus has been in the sign of Leo for five long months โ more than four months longer than usual as a result of her summer retrograde (July 22-September 3).
AND, because we're nearing the first of the eclipses! ๐ฎ
>> What doors are opening and closing in your life? Be careful about who and what you let enter or depart, as both Venus and Libra call for justice and balance in affairs of business or the heart!
The cycle of reassessing and realigning with our values is now culminating โ just before Eclipse Season begins.
My friend, the planets are further verifying that "portal" is the right word for this important moment! We're at the threshold of change.
