alchemy & writing::Aries Season

Hey folks! Welcome to Aries season and Spring and the end of Eclipse season!! (Quick note, scroll to the end of this newsletter and there is a wonderful opportunity for a writer with a game changing idea) I’m not gonna lie, all of this has made me pretty tired - it has been an exhausting month, has it not? There were many changes going on in March, many that will affect us here on earth for awhile. Aries season brings with it the end of the eclipses and the end of the Venus and Mercury...

Welcome to Gemini Season! I can’t believe we’re already in Gemini season, running quick into summer! Half the year is almost up, yikes! So here we are, in Gemini Season, which started on May 20th this year, and will last until the summer solstice on June 20th. This Gemini season will be a busy one, astrologically. Many planets are changing signs during Gemini season, which is oh-so-very Gemini, as Gemini is the most mercurial sign. Gemini is ruled by Mercury and the Gemini constellation is...

Hello all and welcome to Pisces season! (And, sorry this one is so late, there’s a ton going on in March - if you haven’t heard, 2025 is an active year astrologically) I was not paying attention and didn’t realize Pisces actually floated in on February 18th (how Pisces of me), and we’re in Pisces season until the Spring Equinox on March 20th (also the beginning of Aries season) As it’s Pisces season, it’s time to get dreamy. Yes, the world (or, feels like it at least) is going to hell, so I’d...

Hi Folks - Welcome to Aquarius season, which is really the season of the weirdos! So Aquarians are like the little aliens of the zodiac, and they’re really brainy. This is also the sign of the revolutionary and the humanitarian. Their thinking is typically a little before their time, and sometimes it can leave the rest of us scratching our heads. Aquarius is more associated with groups than individuals. Aquarius season runs from January 19th-February 18th. Pluto just recently moved into...

Hello folks! Welcome to Sagittarius season! Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter and those born under this constellation typically have a happy-go-lucky vibe about them. Sagittarius is also the sign of the guru, or teacher, and it’s the one sign that might have blind faith. Some of that blind faith might also be because they’re lucky - did I ever tell you about that time I was in the desert with a Sagittarius and the car was extremely close to being on empty, which wouldn’t be a problem except for...

scorpio season

Hello folks! Happy Halloween! Welcome to Scorpio season! We entered Scorpio season last week on Tuesday, October 22nd. So, it’s officially spooky season, and Scorpio season graces us with reminders of our ancestors, heritage, and the dead. This is a ghostly time. 👻 In terms of magick, this is the time to harken back to your ancestors, for writers and creatives this also means creative ancestors (who inspires and influences your art?). I encourage you to set up an altar in honor of your...

Book coach updates: I have a new offer for those who feel like they need some help but aren’t ready (financially or time wise) to work with a book coach full time.

The mini-blueprint is designed so that you have a good starting point for your novel. $ 199 Write with Me has started up again after a summer break. This is a Friday evening group for...

Hi folks! It is officially spooky season, and by that, I mean Scorpio Season! We are also moving into eclipse season, so the next four weeks should be interesting. Scorpio season is a mysterious time, it’s the time when the bounty of autumn starts to turn towards death. We’re coming up on Samhain and Dia de los Meurtos, both holidays that honor the dead. Many cultures across the world believe that the line between the dead and the living is thin at this time. This is a great time to...

Hey all! I try to get these newsletters out right when the Sun moves into the next sign, but sometimes I get busy, as I did this year. I assure you it’s worth it and I’ve got some exciting news to announce in November. So, we’re in Libra season and it’s the beginning of Fall. I have been loving the crisp Fall feels (yes, even in Southern Cali the weather starts to get cooler) when I go on my evening walks. I even saw a barn owl take flight the other day! 🦉 Libra season and the Fall Equinox...

Welcome to Virgo Season! It is time to take all that creative energy from Leo Season and refine it under the exacting eye of Virgo. Back to school time! Virgo is also the witchiest of the signs. Did you know that the ancient meaning of a virgin was a woman unto herself? This is a great season to refine and edit your creative work. This is also a good season to get back to doing helpful daily rituals. Brush your teeth. Cook healthy food. Ritualize self-care. Do daily offerings. Summer is...
