Or when it will hit itself.

How to Nourish the Four Chambers of the Heart this Venus Retrograde
7 Dec, 2021
There’s a reason why you might be feeling down this Winter, I mean, other than the usual seasonal blues and the ongoing fluctuations associated with the pandemic. Venus, the planet of love, kindness, connection, and socialization, is retrograding through Capricorn, the sign of restriction, contraction, depression, suppression, hard-work, and solitude.

In this article and treatment recommendations I explore ways in which both internal and external factors influence our thoughts and capacity to make informed decisions. During these challenging times, we may be heavily influenced by conservative or liberal mainstream narratives, or conspiratorial social media, as well as peer group consensus, all of which hamper our abilities to make thoughtful, well-informed decisions that are truly our own.

Acutonics® Planetary Perspective, Year’s End 2020
19 Nov, 2020
As 2020 comes to a close, may we take time during the Holydays to reflect upon the tremendous change our cosmos, humanity and each one of us individually is experiencing. It is the end of a Grand Cycle when one world must end and a Grand New Beginning with another reborn. No one ever said that living here on our beloved planet Earth and being present during these times was going to be easy.
