Imma give 10 points to the “planets in domicile are protected from combustion” camp. I just drafted 2 workshop proposal applications for a therapy conference and it only took me a few hours?! Mercury in Gemini is treating me well! I’m all set to click submit during that cazimi tomorrow ✅✍🏾🤩

The urge to be delusional is hitting real hard ever since Saturn entered Aries and is conjoining Neptune 🙃

Let me tell you something about my 8H Saturn return. Leading up to it I’d ask myself “Okay, who in my life is gonna die…? My dad? My cat? My partner? Me?! 🙀” (Saturn rules my 6H & 7H).

But uh, the height of my return has just been about money. Taxes, debt, & personal finance.

Burning question for #therapistsky! When clients ask you for advice, how do you respond? 👀

Why have my wisdom teeth never given me any issues until the week of my exact Saturn return? 😑

The most Taurus thing I’ve done this week is upgrade to the iPhone 16 Pro Max… from my 8 Plus 😐 Y’all I held on to that home button for as long as I possibly could. RIP home button.

Let’s see if I can’t make it another 7 years until the planned obsolesence gets me.

Forget Groundhog Day, it’s National Ukulele Day! In observance, here’s a song I wrote years ago with my trusty Buffy (yes, I name my instruments) 🎶

I had a dream that I had a secret library in a cave, and it was full of ginormous astrological tomes. It was pretty damn cool!

Not to mention the absolute CHAOS I’ve seen Mars Rx causing to people’s menstrual cycles 👀

#astrology #astrologysky #blackastrology
I am so over this Mars Rx in my H1/H12. It started with chemical burns on my face AND nipples. Then my immune system quit and I had a sinus infection for 2.5 weeks. And now, I haven’t been able to sleep through the night for the past week.

Annnd there’s still a whole other month of this bs 🙄😭

As a general rule, if you don’t bother with putting alt text on your images, I won’t bother with engaging with your content 🤷🏾‍♀️

Was fucking around in my kitchen and made what I guess I would call a Blackberry Lemon Cobbler? The bakers will be mad, but I measured nothing, did not follow a recipe, and just winged the whole thing… and IT’S DELICIOUS 😈

This is so important to remember. The ability to experience joy and connection in the midst of grief, terror, and uncertainty speaks to your humanness. Don’t shame away your joy. You’ll need it to survive.
What continues to amaze me is that, alongside this fear, we often carry a mix of other emotions - sometimes all at once. Joy, grief, anger, apprehension, exhaustion, wonder. Our emotional complexity is one of our greatest strengths.

I’m choosing to believe astrologers have an insider on WIRED’s editing team who purposefully chose an INCORRECT zodiac to delegitimize science’s claims of the nonexistence of evidence that supports astrology 👀

Don’t know why this is the literal first thought I woke up with today, but I really can’t respect you if you organize your books by spine color. First by category/topic, then author’s last name. It’s the only way. YOU CAN’T CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE

Hey #therapistsky I’m curious! Where you work, how many clients per week is considered to be a full caseload? Also, how does that number compare to how many clients per week you feel is personally sustainable?

Week 1 of meal prepping and I’m fixing up some potato soup, celery soup, garlicky tomato pasta, lemon garlic shrimp, and a chicken salad. My groceries were less than $110- which is an accomplishment for me! Huzzah!

The way my heart sings when my partner says he wants to buy me tacos for dinner 😍

The cool thing about being a therapist + an astrologer is I get to see how the same planetary energy manifests across various people's lives. Like, none of my clients have anything to do with each other, but it's not uncommon for the same specific theme to emerge during multiple sessions in a day.

He uses the birth chart to map out relationship pitfalls I see unfold in the therapy room every single day.
