We humans still need to integrate the main aspect of quantum mechanics into our thinking; that the basis of material things is NOT material. It’s a big contrast to the general view of the world, where the physical is considered to be more “real”. Although often discounted, our experience has always included the energetic and spiritual. Psychology has its foundations in quantum theory. Freud, Jung and Reich posited that non-material forms - energy structures - are templates of physical reality.

Sirius, the brightest star in our sky (and the closest to earth) is named the “Dog Star” after its home constellation. It’s been known and revered across many ancient cultures. Especially so in Egypt, where its appearance in early July signaled the growing season and the annual flooding of the Nile. Sirius rises along with the sun in the astrological sign of Leo on August 8th. Called the Lion’s Gate portal, that’s when a peak “flood” of energy arrives for growth and nurturance.

The full moon’s energy peak is well known for its drama with more deaths, births, and general spike of activity. The new moon today, July 24th, is just as potent in its effect on the tides and the waters of the earth – including our bodily fluids. New moon is the yin, a pull inward; full moon is the yang, outgoing movement. Generally women release their “flow” at the full moon; within that cycle, the new moon is the time when an egg is released and waits to receive, to be fertilized.

Spirals are a basic form in nature. Water swirls and can achieve vertical movement. Energy funnels down into our chakras, feeding our physiology. The “learning curve” is a spiral. In education it means visiting and getting familiar with a subject and moving on before it’s mastered. Upon returning to it time after time, you achieve a more thorough understanding. I believe evolution happens in a spiral. Lessons learned and integrated create overall progress. We can also view history that way!

The shocking impermanence of it all. Life, death and everything in between! We humans long for predictability and stability to feel safe (our primal brain). Even things we’ve come to rely on – our democracy, the climate – can quickly (to us) undergo radical change. When experiencing something distressful, it’s helpful to know it will pass. Our ultimate mainstays are the cycles of the sun and the moon. So let’s take refuge in the sun right now at Solstice, when the “sun is still” for 3 days.

The revolution (civil war?) has officially begun. It’s been signaled for the last year, if you’ve been paying attention to astrology (or politics!) June and July were always forecast to be extremely rocky. Looking at humanity’s evolutionary trends, it’s clear the Age of Aquarius was going to be a dramatic shift. Despite setbacks and inevitable pendulum shifts, the overall picture is one of progress. This won’t be an easy time, but the universe is providing energetic support for us along the way.

The sun’s energies - solar flares, geomagnetic storms, solar winds - affect our ionosphere. The Schumann Resonances (frequencies that bounce between the earth’s surface and ionosphere), trees and humans all resonate in the same 8hZ range. Called the earth's heartbeat, this native frequency affects our health and well-being - and that of our terrestrial world. We live in that flow of energetic communication and connection. We’re understanding more about just how much trees have to teach us!

The earth’s surface - the “crus...

I’m passionate about expanding - and sharing - my understanding of energetic dynamics and the fundamental roles they play in our lives. Patterns that affect us as individuals, and ones that relate to society and the world at large. Humans can, and do, create plenty of chaos and destruction in our joint reality! Yet there are bigger, unseen forces that contribute to and even drive our experience. Our nature is to look for those underlying causes to explain any given time in history.

For thousands of years people have char...

We’re at the end of a tremendous influx of energy from our sun. The March 29th new moon supermoon solar eclipse is the final “bookend” of a 2-week eclipse window, with the Equinox at its center. This specific period is over, but it’s also a beginning. The new moon is in Aries, the 1st sign of the zodiac, full of fiery passion. At equinox light and dark are equal; now we move into a season of growth. We have received encoded light, a new initiation in our ongoing evolution.

The past week there...

More energy comes from the sun during Spring Equinox than any other time of year. The ionosphere elongates and creates wider openings at the north and south poles to receive this energy. The poles are entry points for circles of energy that revolve around earth’s axis in a torus. We’re also receiving the sun’s energy at the surface. Down through our crown and up from the earth; both humans and the planet are cycling energy in the shape of a torus. The Fountain exercise enhances that flow for u...

We have an unusual set of cosmic energies supercharging us this month. Today ushers in the beginning of a 2-week “eclipse window” - a bookend of energies between the full moon lunar and new moon solar eclipses. Planted right in the middle is the Spring Equinox, with its period of strongest influence within the eclipse window. Amplifying all of it is solar maximum. The sun is at peak activity in its 11 year cycle. Take advantage of this time to accelerate your spiritual growth!

We are affected to some degree by the weather. How much time we spend inside or outside depends on the temperature and precipitation. Our mood can reflect the sky - sunny or cloudy? Howling wind or calm breezes contribute to our state of mind. All are visible, tangible aspects of the environment. What we don’t see - but acutely feel - is the cosmic weather. Massive waves of solar energy continue to inundate the planet since last week. It creates energy surges which can disrupt our health.

I’ve been hearing from many who ...
