It’s been years since I’ve wrote regularly. In my early life, writing was my outlet, my release, my anger management. I set it aside after college to make a living and raise my kids. Oh, the writing tools are always used in the working world, but the free, unabashed sharing of my strange ideas was set aside to do more “adult” things.
I’ve felt the pull to share again through writing as I move into my nodal return in Gemini. I am a child of the 60s whose life started during a time of social unrest and of prophets like Martin Luther King. Many of those astrological energies that I was born under are back today as the universe continues to evolve and send humanity down a path of choice leading to our future as a beautifully diverse collective. As I am now moving towards the crone stage of life and enough years lived on this planet to be considered an elder, the time has come for me to free my voice.
As I’m sure every single blogger has said before they took on this public writing endeavor, I have no idea where this will go. I’m an adult with ADHD who consistently thinks in circles. There will be a heavy nod to astrology as that is my current study and passion. I hope to share with readers the insights I am gaining through formal astrology study at Kepler College. But like everyone, I identify in many different circles.
Many people know me from my work as a music publicist working with progressive rock and jazz artists. I retired from that business to work with students with disabilities. I’ve served as a speech to text interpreter for deaf students and currently work at a university as an advisor and advocate for students with disabilities. I’m a mother of two college aged children and a fierce advocate of transgender and disability rights. I’m also a vegan for many personal reasons most notably that I feel it is the biggest impact I can personally make towards fighting climate change.
Those are my roles and identities in the community that influence my personal truth. I have the communication planet of Mercury retrograde in my natal chart and I’ve always tended to look at things differently than those around me. I hope to express those different views in a way that will be inspirational to some and thought provoking to others. The pages of this website will be my views and the personal truths that I have encountered. I believe we all have our own personal truths that we must search out and honor for ourselves. The only way you will ever know what is true is to look deeply within yourself and find it within you. Let’s begin . . .
