Welcome to the Big Top–Part 2–Donald Trump - Jun 14, 2016

It just seems to get more weird, volatile and crazy. One of the best things you can do right now is to keep your center, understand that all around you does come to pass away. Also, try to get to bed earlier to handle the stress better. The dial has been ratchet up and it will stay that way for some time. With the shooting in Orlando, the uncertainty of the elections and uncertainty in general, it is sometimes hard to find the humor in it all.

Bernie, Hillary and Don–Welcome to the Big Top–Part 1 - Jun 8, 2016

Finally, we get out of the goofy primary phase of this election year and get on with the general election. As I said before, and say it again, the election that will propel America forward will be in 2024 once Pluto leaves the sign of Capricorn. In the meantime we have to continue breaking down the old structures and cleaning up the mess. We are tired of doing it but the “revolution is 8 years long and we can’t avoid it”. Look for promises by all politicians that will not and cannot be met. Stay the course and build momentum on what needs correction.

Prince’s Death Revisited - Jun 3, 2016

I wasn’t surprised to learn of the cause of Prince’s death from fentanyl use. I don’t think many others were surprised either.

We have had a series of early deaths of our celebrities from accidental drug overdose. In general, we have a history of accidental deaths from drug overdoses in America. It has been going on a long time. My uncle, a surgeon in Manhattan, died from an accidental drug overdose with sleeping pills and a cocktail. Our country, being a number 5 country, is very prone to excess in matters of the senses, drugs, food, sex and the routine list of addictions.

Did You Stop to Smell the Roses? Do they still have fragrance? - May 31, 2016

Years ago, I mean years ago, when I was just 19, a friend said to me “don’t forget to stop and smell the roses”. I never forgot that. It seemed so odd to say to me. At 19, I was a busy girl and moving forward. Of course, I smell the roses. At that time, they actually had fragrance. Now they are sold for appearance, size and hybrid colors. I sent my sister three dozen for her birthday. I am sure they had no fragrance. I received a beautiful bouquet from my son on Mother’s Day and the roses had no fragrance. I still enjoyed them and kept them alive into their second week. It seems we have bred the roses for the practical over the sentimental. It’s definitely a symptom of larger trends in America. I wonder if the breeders knew that we were forgetting to stop and smell the roses so they didn’t have to be fragrant any more.

America’s 5 Life Path Is Showing - May 24, 2016

The date of the founding of a country, a company or a person gives us clues as to how that person will live life and exhibit certain character traits. When we look at the United States, especially in light of current dramatic upheavals, we can easily see the same thing. She is showing us her life path and the dark and light sides of her nature.

Americans Are Getting Angry - May 17, 2016

It has taken years for the citizens to rise up and begin the protests to the way things are being run in America. We see it, of course, in the Donald Trump phenomena but it’s also true of the millennials. They are rising up against the inept authority where the average student debt upon graduation is $35,000 and the job market luke warm and not really interested in hiring them. For the middle-aged white male who was let go in the contraction that began in in 2007 and in earnest in 2008 and finds little hope in well-paid positions ever again surfacing. For the rise in drug overdose fed by fraudulent prescriptions from

Letting Go in a Number 9 Year - May 11, 2016

Woody Allen has been quoted as saying “I don’t might dying, I just don’t want to be there when it happens.” When we all set out in the number 9 universal year back in January (2016– 2+0+1+6= 9), we just thought it would be business as usual and we would ignore what a number 9 year means. To cut to the chase, it means endings, completion, finish, capute. It should not come as any surprise that we are watching the death spiral of many structures that we have either depended on or leaned on. It won’t happen over night, but it’s on its way to the side of the road.

Mother’s Day Revisited–Kyle’s 1st Year on the Other Side - May 3, 2016

The first year has been healing, however. In some way his leaving has freed me to go and do what I want or need to do in the time I have remaining here on earth. When you lose what you don’t think you could ever stand to lose and survive it, you somehow don’t care any more if you exceed protocol. You can live your life full throttle knowing that you don’t care any more about dumb stuff or what people say or might think–or worse, self-censorship. You never take things for granted again and you don’t plan too far in advance as things can change on a dime. You live your life from a guided perspective rather than a controlling perspective. You now know, for sure, you can’t control anything.

Prince–the Performer leaves the Stage - Apr 26, 2016

It’s always interesting to look at the blue print used by a Soul at entry point. As you know, we all arrive with one. It’s the invisible plan that awaits discovery. A few of us discover it but most of us let it sit on the shelf and ignore our inner selves–usually until a crisis hits. The crisis hit Prince and he exited out of here. What was his plan? Why did he leave now and was it on time–or in the bigger scheme of things, premature? Prince was to have even bigger fame the longer he stayed here.

To Hell and Back and Still Standing - Apr 19, 2016

The current conception of the ideal is to have the perfect day where you can speak, do, think and act from your highest potential of who you are. Sounds good to me! We try our best to be patient with situations, tolerate difficult people, go the extra mile to get work accomplished and then from nowhere comes the hit. It can be a phone call that changes your life forever,
