Seasons Greetings!

A Blessed Solstice to all who celebrate! May the year ahead bring joy and prosperity!

What’s Happening

I’ve got a new astrology video up with The Astrology Star Sisters: Talk Over Tea! But first, some news:

Gift Cards!

For anyone currently searching for last-minute gifts, I offer electronic gift cards for my astrology and Tarot consulting/tutoring services, as well as for custom artwork and hand-crafting. 🙂

Upcoming Events

I tend to dial back my in-person event appearances during the winter months, in order to catch up on art creation and administrative work. However, I have already scheduled my first event of 2025:

PNW Witches’ Market Imbolc Festival 2025 in Issaquah, Washington state, on February 1st & 2nd, 2025

For those who prefer in-person Tarot or astrology readings, or who wish to pick up my latest prints and hand-crafted offerings, this is the place to be! I look forward to seeing you there in the New Year!

Astrology Video

My friend and fellow astrologer Liz Muschett brought me back onto her show The Astrology Star Sisters tonight to talk about the current astrological weather, with a focus on this morning’s Capricorn ingress and the ongoing Jupiter/Saturn square and Mars/Pluto opposition adding to the stresses of the holiday season. As we try to balance festivity and responsibility, we may need to reassess how much energy we can actually bring, and where we need to step back and observe rather than over-extending ourselves.

Please give us a listen and let us know what you think!

Resources

For further information on the astrological weather and the visionary art I create to reflect that, please visit my Patreon page. All of my patrons get a weekly transit report to help flesh out what is going on in the skies, for as little as $1 per month. If you are interested in exploring further in your astrological reading and gaining greater insight into the transits colouring our lives, join here!

In addition to astrology videos, posts, and visionary art, I do private readings!  Please see my Services page for scheduling.  I offer both individual and relationship readings to help you make sense of what’s going on in your life. I also offer Tarot readings either in tandem with astrology consultations or separately. Get in touch, and let’s work together to get you the clarity you need!
