What Is Going On, Anyway?

January 29, 2025 brings us a New Moon in Aquarius, Steffany's Birthday and welcoming new lunar year of the Snake. Is this new moon taking us down the drain, spinning us up, sucking us through to a new way of building social structures together? I'll share my recent fun taking a songwriting class and read my wishes for a new world.

Here are the links I reference in this episode.

WELCOME TO SEASON THREE!

The Full Wolf Moon in Cancer eats Mars. It's cloudy here, so I won't get to see it, but the Moon will cross in front of Mars tonight. In this episode, I talk about the wish that remained unburned and that I will endeavor to be in relationship with this year. We have abundant excerpts, card readings, and a very promising I Ching reading. I talk about reading the book All Fours by Miranda July.

Homework: Make a wish/desire list for 2025 and try to make it to 100. Include everything.

Our last new moon of the year brings the magic of wishing. December 30, 2024 and the New Wolf Moon. Make 13 wishes and burn 12 of them. You'll be left for a wish to give life to. Something to nurture and care for and make real.

December 15, 2024. The Full Cold Moon in Gemini. I'm feeling exasperated and frustrated. Is this the moon or just me? I'm confronting ideas of who I thought I was and who I want to be. Past and future colliding. I bring in a forgiveness prayer and we get our oracle reading from the I Ching as well as an Art Oracle. All is well. We get advice to be patient and find our communities. Digest Shame. Get Curious.

December 1, 2024. The New Cold Moon is upon us. Up here in Maine, it is dark and cold and this is perfect for the time we need to reflect and listen to questions as they arise. I'll give you the opportunity to ask 3 questions and find answers.

I ponder over my early childhood experiences of religious background and spirituality, what salvation means to me and get some spirit guidance from Owls and Foxes. We receive hexagram 38.1 - 64 opposition moving to Before Crossing.

It's a Full Beaver Super Moon. November 15, 2024. We've made it beyond US presidential election 2024 and many of us are wondering what's next. Some hopeful, some fearful. We all want a better future. How do we do this? The I Ching gives us 28, Great Exceeding. We get The Bear and Cedar and Dolphin. Leadership starts inside, and there is a constant need for rest, joy and renewal. Join me as I show you what a just okay podcast is like. I take my time recording over a couple of days and bring it home like only the seasoned almost 2 year veteran of podcasting can. (I don't actually think folks read these show notes, and usually I'm so careful as I type them out. Tonight, I'm feeling irreverant. Oh well!)

May you Be well may you know Peace.

November 1, 2024. New Beaver Moon. Dream Big. You may not see the success you seek, but maybe the point is not to ever stop dreaming, but to get really good at the process behind the dreaming. This time I talk about my dreams, a zoom-ish elevator, Orpheus, and we get gifted with Inner Truth.

October 17th, 2024 and it's a full Hunter's Moon. It's also a super moon so the bright moon is feeling huge in the sky this week. This time we are given the nudge to have courage and act even if nothing feels right and all circuits are open and noisy and everything feels like Go GO GO! It's okay to take time and listen. It's okay to be receptive and take a moment to listen to your intuition. Action is also staying still and listening.

I mention Bobby Klein's podcast, find it here:

October 2, 2024. It's a New Moon in Libra, our Hunter's Moon. There is an eclipse that we are concerned with this time, giving us a bit of topsy turvy energy. This moment is for setting things down and letting things go. It's time to lay low. Stay still and prepare for the new in this way.

Full moon, super moon and partial lunar eclipse. September 17th, 2024. What inspires you, and what happened in these last two weeks that felt interesting, magical, coincidental, wonderous, funny, weird and noteworthy? All of those instances and moments are important places to locate your awareness. Imagine a future that continues to hold and facilitate those kinds of hopeful connections. In these next two weeks, we will be given opportunities to look at what doesn't last and what is brittle. Once again recharging a strong connection to our center grounded focus is an important task on our to-do list.
