Please join me, Madame Zombra, in the future for a little astral travel, if you will. We shall look at the planets in their transits as they occur, not as prophecy but as signposts for our journey. In columns ahead, if you have questions, you may use the Comments section to ask them and I will do my best to answer your query.
Hello, ducks, and how’s this odd world treating you? In case it seems a bit more off-kilter than usual, remind yourself Mercury went retrograde July 18. Yes, our old nemesis has made yet another appearance in everyone’s life, just to spice things up a bit. It does this with astonishing regularity – and leads to […]

A report from the front lines of the cyber battle … so far the weather tantrums have been winning, but the elderly computer still creaks in protest at being forced into processing yet another blog.

Here we are, apparently entering a new era in many ways … I still anticipate November 19, 2024, the day Pluto finally edges into Aquarius (and doesn’t return to Capricorn until those souls here now are on their next incarnations) with a fervent wish for machinations long hidden to be revealed, in all their sordid
