Hi all,
I’ve been kind of avoiding making an official announcement, but with the amount of emails finding their way into my inbox, it wouldn’t be fair to continue to stay quiet.
As some regular clientele and students are aware, two months after we tragically lost my spry father-in-law, late last October I was diagnosed with colon cancer. It wasn’t a simple diagnosis; it’s been a long, jaw-dropping road to get to this point ..read more

Yikes! So I guess I haven’t written on my blog since Christmas?
A few notes about Saturn and Venus
There’s been a lot going on. As you might remember I’m a Pisces Sun and Moon currently getting dominated (I mean “restructured”) by Saturn in Pisces. It’s been difficult but incredibly important so far, and my Saturnian journey has really just begun. I won’t get relief until Saturn is at least halfway through Pisces ..read more

I have recently made a significant shift in the way I handle several aspects of my business.
Want to book a session with me?
Now you can book your session with my online calendar and pay with your credit card. Woot! This is a bit of an upfront and ongoing investment for me, but it is going to free up a lot of admin hours every week going back and forth with clients in regard to appointment times as well as payments ..read more

Happy summer everyone! I’m back… kind of…
Our bambino, Stella Grace (pictured above a few days after her birth lying on the carpet in her nursery) is now fourteen weeks old. For those who follow me on Instagram, you’ll already know the story of her birth. For those who don’t, you might recall that in my March blog post, I mused on the possibility of having a baby with zero fire in her chart as I was originally given a C section date of March 18 ..read more

Are you holding your breath as you read this forecast?
After 2020 and 2021, looking ahead with hope to another New Year when we’re still knee deep in a global disaster can almost feel foolish. But, I think we can partially exhale in a bit… I think hope is actually called for this year. It will just get off to a slower start than we would like thanks to a couple of lingering influences from 2021 ..read more

Holy moly folks! There is so much to discuss this month in what is quite the grand finale to our 2021 year. We’ve got a solar eclipse, Venus retrograde, the Winter Solstice, a third Saturn-Uranus square, and Jupiter’s entrance into Pisces among other celestial events. Let’s dive in!
Dec 1 – Neptune direct
After being retrograde since June of this year, Neptune switches direction and stations direct today. A nice way of thinking about this change in direction is that our spiritual longings and creative inclinations may start to bubble a bit from inside where they have been stirring for the pas ..read more

Dear clients and students,
Can you believe we are already this far into November?
This year has been a big one for me (as I predicted of course – haha!). I was fortunate enough to speak twice for Astrology Toronto, once for Astrology Niagara and at the Canadian Astrology Conference. I am delighted to have established an incredible group of giving and talented individuals working for Astrology Niagara ..read more

November 4 – New Moon in Scorpio & Sun-Uranus opposition
The first interesting event of November is the New Moon at 12 degrees of Scorpio at 5:15 pm today ..read more
