LOOKING AHEAD LOL

"...it is only when the water reaches people's hips that it becomes possible for them to swim. Before that, with the water at our ankles or knees, it is only possible to walk or to wade. In other words, we might only be able to learn to swim - that is, to exist differently - once we have no other choice." - Vanessa Machado de Oliveira

Yes, it's been a bonkers year and the portal we've entered is dark - yet, I am excited that Pluto is moving back into Aquarius tomorrow. I am excited to solve problems with you. Let us remember that throughout history, seemingly indestructible forces have cracked and crumbled thanks to the solidarity of tricksters, artists and empaths refusing to un-people people.

As we know, the road is long and non-linear...it's OK if you don't know how to proceed right now, the planets are also unsure as a sequence of retrogrades prepare to unfold this Winter. Mercury goes backwards on Nov 25th, followed by Mars on Dec 6th and Venus thereafter. Many re-pivots and plot points are still needing to be doled out, so try to hold off on jumping to conclusions. For now, let us lovingly gaze into the poker-face of Scorpio season's wisdom: it's not the hand we are dealt, it's how we play our cards. 

What I can say is that the astrology next year is making enormous era-defining shifts, an energetic transition that will speed up certain parts of your life in both exciting, challenging, maze-like and technologically absurd ways. Spring 2025 is especially a whirlwind of change. Despite the macho fever dream of self-interest that Saturn-Neptune in Aries might spark...my far reaching hope with Pluto's long-haul in Aquarius and Uranus getting Gemini'd, is that the future is future-oriented, progressive and humane. Keep community care alive, keep beauty alive and trust that your style of resistance will emerge along the way...
