Love the Fall- Neptune Retrograde
Neptune is now retrograde- and will be until 15 November. Being the planet of spiritualism and delusion can be exhausting- all those artists to inspire, all that illusion to create, all that intuition and psychic ability to enhance, all that fog and wonderful haze.

How to prepare for Mercury Retrograde…
Eight years ago we had a new kitchen installed. I love it…except the oven…it’s never cooked evenly…but that’s another story.
