There are some exciting planetary events coming up in January, including a solar eclipse on the 26th with a Mystic Rectangle!   Here’s the news for the upcoming week: Venus has been traveling through…

I’m behind on several writing projects, including January’s Skywatch and an article on Jupiter’s upcoming entry into Aquarius which will take place on January 17. Jupiter changes signs every year or so, and while in Aquarius it will team up with Chiron and Neptune which ought to really be interesting and make for some major…

It’s time once again for the January Visioncrafting Special! I will keep this post at the top until after the first of the year, please scroll down for new articles.
