Happy Halloween! Happy Samhain! For those celebrating Día de los Muertos, I wish you peace and love.
I also pray for peace, understanding, and calm tempers for all of us here in the US as the election cycle draws near. We have a New Moon coming up on Friday. Let’s get through this, team. Love, grace, and compassion. Boots on the ground > popping off on social.
In the interest of supporting you with practical advice in these nonsensical times, my beloved friend
and I did a special episode of Call Your Coven devoted to the election. No predictions here! (because, as I explain at the top of the episode, I do not find that shit to actually be helpful), BUT we deep dive into the astrology and numerology of election day as well as the charts of the two major party candidates. Because we’re nerds, there’s also a lot of history and context-setting.If this kind of thing is interesting and supportive for you right now, do take a listen/watch (and share with like-hearted friends!):
And if you have your action plan for the election all set, are sick of campaign texts and emails, and all you wanna do is stick your head in the sand and WRITE: the next Showing Up to the Work container starts this Friday, November 1st. Come write with me and other spiritually-oriented artists for the next four weeks: three days a week, two hours a day. I don’t know about you, but I am feeling some powerful creative inspiration right now — like the story inside me wants to break free and get out onto the page. Maybe you’re in that place, too?

8:30am: Mars in Cancer trine Neptune Rx in Pisces (27*)
This morning, we’re motivated to not only dream a new world into being, but also to take action. Focus on doing things that are emotionally rich and sustaining, whether that means drafting your novel, making playlists for characters, or volunteering at your local food pantry with friends. This isn’t “work hard hard hard” energy, but rather “work on the shit you care the most about.”
