Yo Team,
am back out in California to attend a Commonweal gathering
of social environmental activists…
with the True Halloween New Moon behind us…Jupiter having entered its own sign of Sagttarius today! (1st time in 12 years)
amplifies/encourages the desirable necessity of honing our story-craft…
Conjoining the New Moon!
(Our capacity to spiral the desirable story out into the memosphere.)And watch, just after sunset the beauty of the New Cresent Moon with Jupiter,
Mercury above, setting in the West…
And just now, where I am in Northern California,
a fire has started in high winds in Paradise..
So the sky has just now turned from dazzling blue to dark gray…
So here, the crescent Moon, Jupiter, Mercury may well be blood red at sunset…We are part of a Big Story…
not just our rogue species, all of Flora Fauna seeks collaborative expression
through our craft. Saturn helps us keep the danger in mind, in a useful way,
“Ten logs lie in front of an archway – leading to darker woods.”
We’re not out of the woods, just heading in…

Let’s be that woman… everyone fee free to mime- “too-too-tooo!”My guest, John Michael Greer, whom I have hosted twice before,
but not since 2012, with his book “Apocalypse-Not!”
debunking the entire history of end-times cons… refreshing..And previously – the crucial – I keep with me always:
“If you want people to get nothing done but conflict –
convince them they are on one side.. We will only get heat.
What two needs is three – the unifying story..”The Sun at 16+ Scorpio (“a woman made fertile by her own spirit,”)
trines Neptune (Vision) stationing, preparing for the 16th,
when Venus goes direct and Mercury retrogrades…

Venus files her investigative scouting detective reports on all up-to-no-good,
and is eager to bring manners back to humans…Mercury stations exactly squaring Neptune, wading backwards
into voting chicanery and what not – to redress, file law suits, reveal deception…
forward on December 6th…. energetic re-counts and revelations at least until then…So, we consider the mid-term elections…
about which I am possibly more sanguine, than guest, and yet,
I am always aspiring to hone my “curmudgeon whisperer skills.”We want the spicy critique-diagnosis (Mirror) ,
followed by the liberating Vision (Window)
and the exhortational – Let’s go! (Door!)With Isaiah: “Speak to the weary a word that will rouse them.”
(as I set forth now to Berkeley, then Bolinas, into the smoke, woo hoo,
everything speaking to us, as we hone our metaphoric literacy,
intimacy with the world by being able to understand that all literal is symbolic…)
