New Moon’s Sweet Brood

Astro-Flash: New Moon in Cancer on the 4th of July, trine to dreamy Neptune and opposite power-house Pluto, is going to bring out the Mother in us all. It could be literal, with intense conversations/revelations with your own mother or mothering figure, or it might be metaphorical. You don’t have to have a biological brood for this to apply. Think of offspring as animal, vegetable or mineral – a creative project, an idea or innovation will work just fine to stir up these gut level instincts.

Giddy Up With Mars Direct

Warrior and Spirit by Rance Hood

Hi everyone! You may have caught my recent post on Facebook:

Astro-LOA Flash: Mars (action/drive) is at a standstill. It’s a time of patience, deep breaths and ‘not yet’ which can be freaking frustrating! (especially if you have a book release or project to launch, or date to make). Can you hold your horses? Just a little longer?

The post generated a stream of questions, most of them a version of, “HOW MUCH LONGER?’

If you’re asking that question right now, th...

Let the Bodies do the Talking

Shadows of the Past by Lubomir Bukov

Inspired for revision by my Voyager post in 2011.

There are a lot of things to keep in mind when writing fiction — world building, action, suspense, characterization. Another key component is dialog and I am always looking for ways to ‘show not tell’ when it comes to my characters’ conversations. It’s tricky because they are actually telling when they speak. One way to ease back on the exposition in dialog is to use body language along with the words. Here...

New Twin Moon

With the New Moon in Gemini igniting the Mutable Cross, think mental and physical stimulation through the contrast of mind, body, spirit and desire. Meaning …

You want to expand, but do your feel worthy? You want to connect, but do you trust other people? You want to shine in your chosen calling, but do you really have it right? This month is a puzzle only you can solve. And you will!

It’s perfectly natural, with this Grand Cross in the sky, to feel a little underwh...

Venusian Hoodoo

Hi Everyone,

There’s a spectacular alignment in the sky right now. It’s not visible to the naked eye, since the nodes are hypothetical points and Pluto is too far away to see, but it’s there, and like homeopathic remedies, the more distant/dilute, the more potent.

Think of this as a little antidote to the Mercury and Mars Rx that might be holding up the show, causing some kinks or frustrations.

Astro-LOA Flash: Venus, planet of love, connections, fine arts and core values, is trine the North...

Ishtar New Moon

Ishtar Bull

Blushing with light, thy votary shroud
And on those wings that sparkling dance
Waft, oh waft me hence away!
Love, my soul is full of thee
Alive to all thy sumptuousness. –Sappho

Taurus is the symbol of sensuality, values and possessions. It’s the money sign, the sex sign, the often gentle, peaceful, enduring sign of the earth! It can also rage with a passionate force unrivaled!

But, what is it about Taurus and possessions?

The possibility to own what one needs in order to further...

The Blood in the beginning – An Ava Sykes Novel #booktrailer

Book trailers are relatively new on the marketing scene. They’ve been around since 2006, and present an interesting dichotomy of semiotics: Using audio/visual to promote the textual. The jury is still out on whether it can work.

You may have seen my latest trailer for the New Ava Sykes Novel – The Blood in the Beginning. Do you feel a sense of the story watching it? Yes/No? I’d love to hear in the comments!
