I wanted to share this peek into the author Henry Miller’s bathroom to honor the energy of tonight’s Scorpio full moon. As with any full moon, the event may be happening tonight but it’s influence colors our actions and thoughts over the next 2 weeks until the New Moon.

I always assumed he was a Scorpio — his sun sign is actually Capricorn, the wise old goat! But he has a significant conjunction, a pile-up of the planets Uranus, Mars, and the Moon in Scorpio in his house of relationships, influencing his dealings with others, especially significant partners.

Here he gives a lushly narrated tour of his inner sanctum. I’ve been lucky enough to have viewed the studios, bedrooms and private inner walls of some Scorpio friends — like a decaying museum of sexual/spiritual inspiration all held in reverent awe, where the primal caveman leaves his or her mark of an intensely lived life. read more >>

Got obsessed with the color VIOLET last night. Before I went to sleep, I meditated upon it + figured it would infiltrate my dreams. Woke up to news that Elizabeth Taylor had passed. Only an otherworldly Pisces could cast such an illusion, have us all believing she actually had VIOLET eyes…

Even if it’s raining today on April Fool’s Day — go out and try something, anything new! Don’t be afraid of looking odd, naive, or crazy.

Spring is a temperamental time of year. One day you wake up and you can’t tell whether it’s night or day – it’s all grey and rainy with mist obscuring everything. The very next, you’re truly surprised that it’s 80 degrees out and sunny.

The planet Pluto is going retrograde (backwards) in the sky from April 3 to September 11. Pluto is in the sign of Capricorn and has been since this whole “Recession” era began in November. Pluto accelerates the death of the old, outworn, and unnecessary so that something new and better can take it’s place. Especially in the beginning stages of a Pluto cycle (as we are in now) this process can be quite dramatic and seemingly ruthless in it’s “re-organization” that feels more like chaotic destruction.
