The New Pope, Leo XIV , appeared in public when the sign of Leo was culminating.

the 9th house is in gemini according to Lilly gemini covers (among other things) London, Armenia and Flanders. The new pope may be from those areas. books.google.com/books?id=WZw...

the moon in libra (diplomacy, agreement) exactly opposes ruler venus in aries conjunct neptune (spiritual leader) and we have a new pope

last week i gave a reading to an extraordinary woman and one stand out thing was that over the course of 20 yrs she had three major life events happen on the same date (e.g june 23) her marriage and two serious medical diagnosis...

look what May Day brought home :) wound stitched, neutered (😭) + the shelter thought he would be ready to return to The Wild right away but he wasn't at all he's sleeping 16-20 hrs day hopped up on cbd + catnip in the last stretch of his month long recovery beautiful Omen ♥️

saturday morning: deep forest immersion. emergency triage for *gestures wildly* all of that.

HE'S HOME and in terrible shape we are packing up and heading to the emergency vet now and relief is otw thank you everyone for the prayers, they worked 🙏

two updates: 1. NEVER trust a tomcat who has his balls during a mercury station. after 18 hrs straight of sleeping, eating and some light nursing, Omen booked it for the woods this morning using the dogs as cover when they left for their breakfast walk 2....

the leo moon opposed pluto and a cat i've heard wailing in the woods for three days showed up on our doorstep looking for help...coyote survivor 😢 he's been eating, and he let his wound be dressed without scratching or biting because he is a SURVIVOR and a very brave soul...

exalted taurus moon and a luna moth has declared my balcony her new home, omens are spectacular... (isn't she beautiful)

Reiterating THIS. Spring and a lil protection sesh with my girl @alchemilie.bsky.social - I am renewed and READY.

“because they are living things, imbued with the life essence of their creators, humming with the resonance of their stars… and this is exactly what AI cannot reliably produce.” *chefs kiss* 👌✨ @alchemilie.bsky.social on the production creative works… open.substack.com/pub/alchemil...

i do not know why this works but my most reliable witchcraft for summoning the muses and winning their affections (an art) is simmer pots...made of whatever herbs/florals/scents that relate to the planet in question once the air is appropriately laced the story comes *pouring* out

standard gemini moon mercury day activities, you know how it is

venus, currently ;)

every girl needs her little stone circle in the center of a spruce grove where she can lay down and watch the clouds pass by until she becomes one with the clouds and the sky and the...you already know ;)

never in my life did i think i would be the (temporary) guardian of a cat who doubles as a hiking buddy but we share a love of wild spaces 🥲

i've had my first two pieces on substack break 100 likes and that is a whole new kind of dopamine because those are some Real Readers (i ramble) 🥲 writing longform does things for the spirit that posting can not and we should all be doing lots and lots of it

if you're at all interested in astrological magery the election writeups over at sphere and sundry are a masterclass i can spend HOURS there, reading

happy (fallen) sunday, the last of the year!

started this morning with the moon on my left and the sun on my right and a roaring fire bringing us all together 🥲 the omens are good

will you be my astrologer valentine, yes/no 💐 🤓 💝

i did a reading tonight for a beautiful soul who told me we were mutuals on twitter and she started seriously writing and building her creative practice after an offhand reply i made that i wanted to read her work someday... the seeds we plant 🥲

hey, happy (full moon conjunct) mercury day!!

one of my more woo astro theories is that if you collect stormwater for arcane purposes it carries the astrological signatures of the chart of the moment 🤓 magically this (seems) to have born out over here but more experimental operations are required (hint hint)

one of the most famous arguments against the determinism of astrology + it's ability to predict future events came from Pico Della Mirandola in his scathing "Disputations Against Divinatory Astrology", the basis of most arguments used against astrology to this day…🧵
