Look, I know you’re exhausted …

…. for this Friday the 13th, I’ll try to keep it engaging…

We have a solar eclipse this weekend, and 2 weeks later, a lunar one to follow. The cosmic activity we are experiencing now with Pluto's direct station at the bend of the Nodes feels unsettling to our world.

Eclipses are unpredictable, prompting impulsive reactions and potentially regrettable decisions, especially when we feel threatened. It's advisable to avoid major changes in these coming 2 weeks since outcomes can be uncertain.

Check out my latest article covering this weekend’s New Libra Moon. Themes: EVERYBODY JUST CHILL!. At least for the next two weeks.

Next up, PROMO TIME! Check this out proud moment:

“hey Audra, why do you want to become a writer" … BECAUSE THIS INSPIRES ME!!

Meet my foodie/wine-buff friend Aysun. An ‘Escape-from-Academia’ Queen, credentialed in things like bacterial genomics and protein embeddings. IDK wtf any of that means, but she’s a Scorpio immigrating to Delft from the Ottoman Empire - which makes her soul SUPER interesting to know.

You can find her here and here on the socials, and I take this moment to wish her a very Happy

Newsletter-y Stuff/Announcements:

I just returned from travel in the UK. Readers can have a 2-week free sneak peak here and here before these articles go behind a paywall. The Call to Action behind these posts is relevant because:

• Discussing a healthier work-life balance exchange remains high on my list of priorities and I’m gathering an tiny army of humans that share the same beliefs & core values in wanting permanent change.

Should any ladies in my network be available coming Sunday to discuss Career Gaps, please join me for ‘Writer’s World’ here. I’m hosting IT nerd & Lady of the Night, Miss Magali M, who shares her informative experiences, strengths & hopes.

• I use astro to matchmake. Whether that be with someone you’re romantically interested in, or otherwise. Book some time with me if you fancy.

Herewith my own personal testimony where I’ve used astrology to build a healthy relationship with a playful Gemini Sun - bossy, yet nurturing - Cancer Stellium (inclusive Moon) - charming Libra Rising. Even if we don’t make it, he’s happy to provide a testimony for me :-)

Awkward to read personal texts you say? …. read between the lines I say … STAY AWARE.

I’m happy to have found a platform that allows progressive growth in building a writing career. For now, and for those interested in my writings, the ask is for your financial support to support my career.

As I continue to leverage my brand while remaining active on social media, the ‘Freebie’ options can be suggested herewith:

Stole this one from a social media friend. Cheers Brandon F.

New Moon (RE)flections

I've opted for a mystical fusion as my brand's essence, combining elements of spiciness and saltiness, like taste of a crab clinging to the side of a simmering volcano.

If you're intrigued by this blend, you can explore more of my musings on my blog, where I dedicate my efforts to generate income from my publications.

For now, this Newsletter remains a freebie place to creep!

Keep it Spooky this Season

During this eclipse season, we might all want to ask ourselves, what generational wounds are being revealed? And what tools are needed in order to effect healing, bringing greater wholeness to our lives?

If there is nothing to be done about your particular situation, what can you change in your mindset that allows you to better cope with the problems or limitations you are now facing?

Often, embracing the darkness is what allows us to see the light.

xx Namaste

DID YOU MAKE IT UNTIL THE END?

Leaving you with this…

In the words of Bernice A. King¹

“I mourn the tragic, brutal deaths of people in Israel at the hands of Hamas and the tragic, brutal Palestinian deaths from the bombings by Israeli military forces.

Children are being annihilated and families wiped out in the midst of our debates and denouncements.

These words from my father remind us that violence is a descending spiral and a destructive force that leaves behind a trail of suffering, hate, and desolation, affecting generations to come. As you read them, please consider how we each can be a purveyor of true peace.”

Om Shanti xx

Audra
