Moon Stuff:

Bro. I really have nothing to offer you other than getting my fingers to type this newsletter. Hope you do one little thing each day to make you smile or helps crack you open. This week, for me, it’s a sunrise walk and the littlest, tiny baby bowl of oatmeal. Haha. To the stars!

First off, Mercury has entered its shadow and will enter retrograde on 11/25. This is the last of the fire sign retrogrades of the year. Pay attention to the Sagittarius part of your chart and what needs to be tended to there. We have a few mutable sign retrogrades happening right now so that feeling of being untethered or out of control might be at the forefront. Change is unavoidable but ground yourself where you can.

Luckily, the full moon in Taurus is pragmatic and grounding. Venus, the ruler of Taurus, just moved into Capricorn so everything is extra earthy. Also, Saturn is stationing direct in Pisces the same day as the full moon. Saturn is ready to get back to work in the Pisces area of your chart. This is a great time to say no and dig your heels into some new boundaries. Hey! Maybe you don’t need to go to a Thanksgiving dinner this year! On the other hand, doors might close for you this week and honestly, let them close. My favorite affirmation at the moment is, "If it is for me, let it be easy”. Pivot to the careers, hobbies, relationships, rituals, teachings, and communities that feel right. Obviously use your gut and discretion in tandem but we don’t need to fight for every door to budge open for us. We don’t need to work so hard for a person to text us back once. There are other opportunities and relationships around the corner that are sweet and you deserve sweetness. You deserve ease. Ok, that is all I have this week. See you next time!

Herb N' Eden - I am so sure I have recommended them before but they are the truth! The winter dry air is here in LA and their body oils save me every time. They have and early Black Friday sale happening but I’m sure their sales will get better as we get closer towards the holidays.

Oh Lolly - Speaking of Black Friday, my favorite place for skincare which I’M SURE I have recommended before. If you are in the Los Angeles area, the shipping is honestly always next day??? Magic. My fave sunscreen and moisturizer at the moment. I’m sharing these in confidence, if they sell out, I’ll fight all of you individually. I do have a 10% off code here, but they almost always have a sale going.
