A new season is upon us and all of nature is coming back to life. The March 19 Equinox marks a fresh start. Yet here we are in the midst of a pandemic, trapped in our homes, insecure about our physical and financial well-being.…
Sometimes it’s hard to know which end is up. We’re living in a time of hype and fear-mongering, especially over the last few weeks with Mercury retrograde in fuzzy-headed Pisces (it has now backtracked briefly into Aquarius, where it turns direct on March 9).…
Recently I listened to an interview with shaman-elder Agaanagaq (Uncle) Angakkorsuaq from the far north of Greenland. In the Global Ecovillage Network Summit, he said that in the early 60s, his people discovered that an enormous nearby glacier was melting – something unheard of in their history.…

Toward the end of his illustrious career, psychiatrist Carl Jung shared the story of a young female patient who had been to two doctors prior to him with no relief. She suffered from what Jung termed “animus possession,” (he defined the animus as the “deposit” in a woman of her ancestral experiences of men).…
