Time to Heal

When I broke my ankle (catastrophically) at the end of May there was no sense of how long it would take me to recover. Now, almost five months later, I am walking (around the house at least), living independently (with help here and there), and back to work full time for my dayjob as program manager of the philosophy, cosmology, and consciousness graduate program at CIIS. In June I thought I’d be back to doing readings by August, then in August I thought October, and in September I thought November. Now I realize I need more time.

I have decided to extend my pause on astrology readings through the end of the year, and in January will review how much time I can devote to this practice, which I so dearly love, and also struggle to make space for in my busy schedule of trying to make rent, student loan payments, etc.

For those looking further into the future, I will say that at the moment I am dreaming of offering another introduction to archetypal astrology course in summer 2024. My big dream is for this course to have an optional extension into intermediate level transit analysis for those who want to explore further. My way-big dream is to offer these courses yearly and to eventually offer mentorship for those who wish to begin their own consulting practice, or who simply want to deepen into their personal relationship with astrology over the long term.

For now, my ankle reminds me that I need to rest diligently and move strategically. Each extra moment in my day should be spent stretching, massaging, and getting my body back into shape after this serious trauma. On a personal/emotional level, I also need time to come back into a place of steady balance rather than sacrificial pushing before I can hold the kind of space I know my astrology clients come to me for.

Thank you to everyone who has checked in, sent love, donated to the very successful go fund me, and been supportive and patient in so many ways since this broken ankle business took over my life. I appreciate you. I look forward to working with you in the future, and I hope that in the meantime you are well, finding balance, and riding the waves of the cosmos/world with peace and compassion.
