Monthly Outlook

June 2023

The skies give us a break from recent intensity and a return – briefly – to an atmosphere that feels familiar. They encourage gregariousness, going out and about, taking center stage, and basking in the spotlight. Make like it’s summer, even before the …

May 2023

Think life couldn’t get more hectic and unpredictable? Surprise! That’s exactly what May has in store. For one reason, Mercury retrograde is tripping us up with miscommunications and worse that have real-world implications. For another, disruption, rev …

Did you think March was hectic? Just wait. April runs us through a gauntlet of high energy and volatile change, with our heads looking backward in the final stretch. Relationships are an all-pervasive issue: a catalyst, a playing field, or just plain i …
