With Venus still in Retrograde for the entire month of January, what DO we love? What do we desire? What do we value?  Neptune is currently in Pisces and it only flies through its home sign of Pisces once every 164 years. Think of it as a major amping up of creative and psychic energy! Musicians, poets and artists of all kinds will feel inspiration and creativity bloom. Art influences everything in our lives, whether you acknowledge it or not. From the design of your water bottle to the clothes on the shelves and the styling of cars. Beauty and design are everywhere. And so for today’s woo – lets dive into the woo of beauty.

Fruitcake! Every year at Christmas it shows up. People bring fruitcake as gifts, they make jokes about it, and sometimes they even eat it! Two friends from Iowa have been exchanging the same fruitcake since the late 1950s. Even older is the fruitcake left behind in Antarctica. But what about that 4,000 year old one from Egypt?

Love it or hate it, fruitcake never goes away, and you might even need to be “nutty as a fruitcake” to eat some. So what’s the deal with this sturdy seasonal dessert anyway? Join me on today's episode where we explore the surprisingly interesting history of Fruitcake!

I don’t know about you, but I love the magic and woo that seems to practically drip from the month of December. Whether you celebrate Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Christmas Yule or even Saturnalia, there is an inescapable feeling of tradition that comes with the month. Some of this is the heavy influence of Capricorn from Dec 22nd on, asking us to find structure and purpose in our lives, but I believe it’s so much more than that. And in true Things that Make you goo woo form, you know I’m going to have to take a look at the history and evolution of woo during the holidays.
