Emotional Storms – Epic Pluto Return
Epic Pluto Return is a time of Death and Rebirth, the destruction before creation aspect of Plutonic influence. On Feb 22, 2022, the USA experienced its first ever Epic Pluto Return. That means the Dark Lord of Transformation, Pluto, sat in the same place in the sky as it did when the United States was “born,” July 4,1776.
In February, we were a nation still reeling in shock over the highly emotional and violent events of January 6! And not just Americans but the world felt it as two days later, February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. When a planet transits a sign, changes direction, or engages directly with a natal (birth) chart, intense energy activates and releases. Over an extended period of time there is a build up, a peak, and a de-escalation. But, in this case…

Mara Weather – Independence Day, 2022
My Shamanic Weather posts focus primarily on astrology. I sneak in Shamanism, Reiki and even some Tantra, especially in my recommended practices and ceremonies.
Today, I found myself exploring the heaviness in my heart. It’s been there for some time, I think, and I’ve been “managing” it as part of my grief process over the so-many-changes in my life in 2022. Then add 2020-2021 to that, well, of course process and integration are cooking through me. I live my Mara Weather everyday.
And – today I realized, again, because this is cyclical for empaths, I need to ask the question, “Is this mine?”
The answer: not all of it. I may do energetic clearing, cord cutting, find that peaceful Nowness after journeys, breathing practices, and meditations, but sometimes that mental awareness rings the “Duh!” bell and the relief is immediate.

Shamanic Weather July 1 – 4, 2022 – War Mind Moments
Be prepared for War Mind Moments and not-so-secret messages this weekend! Warrior God Mars, finishing up his tour through his home sign of Let’s Get Started Aries, challenges (squares) Dark Lord of Transformation Pluto, on Friday, July 1. And Quicksilver Mercury delivers several key missives during his last week in his home sign, Let Me Ask A Question Gemini.
WHAT’S WITH THE WAR MIND MOMENTS?
When Bad Boys Mars and Pluto act up we see more road rage, overreaction, and quick tempers. Each perceived slight or unintentional insult can escalate quickly beyond the actual circumstance. Since you now know this can happen, you can stop, take a few breaths and step back from the edge of triggered response.
AND THOSE INTERESTING MESSAGES?

Spiritual Awakening – New Moon In Cancer
A Spiritual Awakening can be glorious or messy – or both! The New Moon in Cancer (June 28, 2022 at 7:51 pm PDT) awakens your spirit through the portal of your cracked open heart.
OH THOSE CRACKS
Outer You Sun and Inner You Moon merge (conjunct) this month in Heart Of The World Cancer. And Black Moon Lilith, who also conjuncts the New Moon, adds the potent fullness of the Shadow Feminine. Her darkness embodies the defiant, intuitive and self aware, and figures heavily in our Spiritual Awakening.
Empowerment King Jupiter in I Boldly Go Forth Aries challenges (squares) this New Moon and Black Moon Lilith conjunction. We can be overwhelmed or sidetracked by the intensity of our emotions.

Magical Alignment Shamanic Weather
June 24-26, 2022
What happens during a magical alignment? We’ve been silent witnesses to the sky show aspect of that these past several days, with the predawn hours of June 24 being the primo viewing day.
From my June 23 post:
I got up early again so I could take these shots [above]. You’re looking at Venus, the Moon, Mars and Jupiter.
What you can’t see is Mercury (behind the trees) and Saturn (too far out of range.)
And the planets that are up there but you can’t see at all without more power are Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. AND, most of the major asteroids astrologers have begun to incorporate into their readings are there, too!
All the planets in our system have not been in the same part of our sky like this since 949 AD.
And it won’t happen again until 2492. So we are in rare times under the influence of this Magical Alignment.
