the saturday there will be no moon at all in the sky.remember this is a time for new beginnings or new wishes. on new year's eve if you look at the southwest sky at sunset and see the moon, you will notice venus right there. if you look below the moon you will see jupiter and mercury. quite a nice lineup. happy holidays!

the adventurer has pulled into port. ken arrived in the barbados and all is well.

full moon in geminii...bubbling energy

maria and angelica the two birthday girls. happy birthday to you!

yes, this thanksgiving is the new moon at 11:54 am. new beginnings via psychological seeds planted at this time will begin to sprout at the full moon. a time for counting our blessings and sharing them with others.

here's a beautiful photo taken by my childhood friend, karen becker who lives in vermont.

There's a full moon on november 13th in taurus at 1:17 am. Check out the skies.

bright colors, orange sun setting ...while thoughts of you nestle in my heart.

tuesday, october 28th, is the new moon in scorpio. this time of the year is a special time from ancient days. the story goes that the veil between the worlds of the living and the dead will be thinnest now. this enables us to commune with our loved ones who are on the 'other side' of the veil. the new moon in scorpio will assist us. take a moment at night to speak the words we never had time to say to those we loved who have passed over to the other side...and happy halloween!

jennifer and sophia and bela and i enjoyed a beautiful fall day in havertown.

full moon tues. things will peak then subside. perhaps the market will settle a little. mercury turns direct on wednesday. this will clear up misunderstandings and plans will finally proceed as expected.

created by artist brian tolle, the irish hunger memorial at battery park city is designed to raise public awareness of the irish famine of 1845-1852.one and a half million irish were lost to famine related death and the diaspora. many irish migrated to america where we still are today. hunger throughout the world is highlighed through this memorial. it was very moving.

here's dan getting the murphy bed ready for me. thanks so much, dan. it was so comfortable. i love the view of the city and the street noise. 'the city that never sleeps.'

a visit to the moma and subway sculpture.

on sunday i took the greyhound to nyc. it was the polish parade as well as a bike race so the bus took us through hoboken. ken, dan and i met at the west way diner on 9th ave. then off to the moma and the streets of ny...my home.

weekend at cape may with linda. we visited the marina and ate at the lobster house. don't miss the 'ghost tour'. great weekend.

there was a new moon and mercury is retrograde (appears to go reverse - actually it just slows down) which means it gives everyone a chance to rethink everything. dates get mixed up and paperwork lost/found. i just found an old bill that i thought i paid. i also will be seeing relatives who i haven't seen in a while. perhaps i will hear from an old friend too. all merc retro events. it will go direct on the fifteenth of october.

packing up the leftovers from mastoris. what a delicious lunch in bordentown. the restaurant began in 1927 as a lunch wagon in hightswown. it was called the 'hightstown diner'. still run by the family and famous for its 'cheese bread'...complementary with your meal. where rt. 130 and rt. 206 meet. yum.m.m. photo of pattie and gwen...

the town of haddonfield is famous for the dino bones found a few blocks away.

Full moon in the emotional and compassionate sign of pisces.

new moon saturday august 30th ... beginnings...seed planting time...in earthy virgo

delicious chicken breast roasted with potatoes, zucchini, asparagus and mozzerella topping. yummy...maria ate 'raw'- salad. she creates her own flax crackers and special spread out of raw nuts, honey, etc...quite a non-cook, cook! bela is lovely and working on a special drawing of her dream of a kitchen overrun with flowers, fruits and veggies...what a dream!

things should liven up this weekend. the full moon brings things to a head. let's see what happens with the moon in aquarius eclipsing at 24 aquarius.

'whatever we lose like a you or a me, it's always ourselves we find at the sea' ee cummings.

friday will be the new moon in leo with the exta added bonus of an eclipse in leo. a little extra energy is given at this time to certain areas of your life, if these points are activated. no photo...'no moon at all'

what a great day for a car trip. i went to new hope and enjoyed the scenery and the shops...especially the tibetan shop. then lunch at 'wildflowers'.

there's a full moon coming up friday. take a moment to look up and see the huge orb above. if there's a choice to make try to go with the love not with the fear.

looking at the sky through the mimosa canopy

mother nature's gift to us...her flowers

the new moon in the sign of cancer ruling home & family is near the planet of love, venus. lots of shows of love of country on this 4th of july. happy independence day everyone and let's take a moment to remember all who have fought for our freedom.

black eyed susan with a baby bee...moon in aries. let's be daring and start something worthwhile. my recycling bucket arrived today. let's all pitch in and take care of mom earth.

there is a day lily festival in the yard. the moon in pisces is a good time to visualize your dreams. 'if you don't have a dream, how you gonna make a dream come true?'don't doubt yourself. you're here to be you, not me or him.

now we can see what has become of our new moon wishes. we've had time to rethink and sort out our plans. have our wishes changed? as we near the new moon in 2 weeks we wil be able to view our life with a less emotional approach. at the new moon (wednesday july 2)a more realistic view of things will be possible. at the time of the new moon each month man is the most free he can ever be. so start thinking up some new wishes and get them ready to plant at the new moon! all those mixed up communications should strighten themselves out today since mercury is speeding up.

amanda was a philadelphia based astrologer when i met her years ago. here is her blog which i love. 'sandpainting my life' ....be here now...see the beauty in each unique moment..love it...embrace each moment

last nite i was invited as a guest of ro to the orchid society meeting and what a wonderful nite. i saw so many beautiful orchids along with a slide presentation of the award winning orchids of the year. it was like a dream! they had a raffle at the end and i won a 'private dancer x maple dancer'. i placed it next to my phalaenopsis orchid, 'wedding promenade' so it can teach it how to bloom. i'll try to post photos.

time to make your wishes and daydream about your favorite desires. this is the 'plant the seed' time. the full moon in about two weeks, june 18th will bring your wishes to life. 'if you don't have a dream, how you gonna make your dream come true?' i'm dreaming about a special someone and i'm also dreaming of an air conditioned work place! what are you dreaming of?

the new large hadron collider is nearing completion near geneva, switzerland. there is fear that we will be swallowed up into the small black holes that will be created. perhaps we are already! check out the link...

this is a good time to reorganize, rethink, redo, realign, write, reconsider, ...i think you have the idea. take a step back and re-whatever. time to meet up with old friends, lovers, husbands, etc. it will be retrograde (slowed down so the planet appears to be going reverse but it's not) from may26 thru june18th. there will be cancellations and postponements of plans that are made at this time. just try to 'go with the flow'.

interesting being a rooster...check out your inner beast!

one should not become attached to anything that can be lost in a shipwreck.oops! hindi again?!

maria and bela on the way to dance class. little ballerina!

maria and bela were on the way to dance class. little ballerina!

here are some vacation photos...time spent with the 'grand girls'

what about them? anyone see any? have any encounters? i've known many people who have seen unidentified flying objects. some of them were pilots and were flying when they encountered them. are they secret government aircraft on a mission or something else. appear and disappear.... inter dimensional ? or a thought form ? are we the greatest of all in the universe (that would be a shame!) ... http://www.nuforc.org

i'm thinking that pluto is still a planet from an astrological point of view. this is based on my own observations. what do you think?
