Happy Birthday Libra!
“Libra gets confused by things when they allow their minds to get the best of them. They may want to do or say something but their head will go against that... they second guess.”

“Libra can easily be distracted at times and tend to get lost in their train of thought, so if you hear a pause after you speak to them...that’s why.”

“It is very common for Libra to have a sincere love for something involving creativity, like fashion, music, painting or designing. This is often where their greatest talents come from.”

“Something Libra says to themselves all the time: I gave this idiot way too many chances.”

“Libra tries to be understanding first. They start to raise their eyebrow when you’re not making any kind of sense to them.”

“A Libra will act as if everything is okay even when things are falling apart.”

“Libra philosophy: Tell me not to do something and I will do it twice and take pictures.”

“A Libra will usually talk your ear off, but if they don’t feel comfortable around you, they can be quiet as a mouse.”

“A Libra sometimes chooses to ignore certain things just for the sake of peace, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t notice or they don’t care.”

“You often bounce back and forth between pushing yourself to the limit and not wanting to do anything at all.”

“A Libra will take you on the first date, but make you feel like you’ve known them for years.”

“Libra are the only sign that can insult you and still sound nice.”

Fall has arrived!
I always do a collective reading for each season with a Rune pull and a Druid animal totem to see what the vibe of the season will likely be. It is no surprise that there will be challenges personally and for society. The Rune of Constraint (consider the uses of adversity) returned again from the summer, and the Fire Dragon now takes center stage to be the most notable themes ahead. The link below will take you to the audio explanation of the season with some suggestions on how to Navigate thru all of it (Free for everyone). I also have an added audio with a Tarot and angel card message exclusively for supporters and subscribers on the site.

“…My cynical humor skills continued to sharpen as I grew up and I remember wanting to try a new cereal advertised called “Grins, Smiles, Giggles, and Laughs.” It was a tasty sugary treat with a really, really stupid name and I made fun of that ridiculous name a lot. Around the same time there was a nearly constant string of commercials about a baby doll called “Baby This and That.” The catchy song jingle was: “Baby This and That, Baby This and That, she does a lot of this and she does a lot of that...” At the age of eleven I could not believe that adults thought this was a good idea. Apparently actual professional people sat around brainstorming and got excited enough to market this “brilliant idea.” Were they being serious about “she does a lot of this she does a lot of that?” What the hell does that mean anyway? This is when it began to sink into my awareness that some adults were kind of stupid and even severely lacking in actual talent. I have no doubt that this doll and the cereal are collectors items now. Comments like this were abundant during my childhood and I had a number of times when my mother or other people told me to stop being such a wise guy!…”

September October 2026 Snake Oil/You better change that attitude!

“…In a somewhat similar way that astrology works the Michael teachings show that we are wired at birth with one of seven attitudes.* These are actually chosen at a Higher Self level and locked in for life. The idea that you should or even could change your attitude is largely meaningless. At best we can learn to stay in the positive poles as opposed to negative poles of our attitude. An idealist cannot become a pragmatist because they are told that they should be. The seven attitudes or way we see life are from most common to least common: Idealist, realist, pragmatist, stoic, skeptic, cynic and spiritualist. I am a realist. The positive pole or the realists expression is to be objective and its negative is being subjective. A realist can slide to its paired attitude of cynic though. The positive pole of cynic is contradiction and its negative is denigration. The realist sees life from the lens of “it probably is” while the cynic sees from the lens of “it probably isn’t.” Many realists understandably make good judges, arbitrators, and counselors because of their ability to both empathize and to also be objective. A lot of the best comedians are not surprisingly realists or cynics. They can be really funny by calling out contradiction in society and human behavior but sometimes can seem a bit too dark for others. The cynic attitude is often taken on to handle a potentially difficult life or repayment karma. George Carlin is a great example of a famous cynic. Judge Judy would be an example of a famous realist…”

Happy Birthday Virgo!

“As a Virgo your motto is be prepared, even if it kills you. You rather be one step ahead than two steps behind.”

“Once a Virgo is over a relationship, it is over. Virgo's can become emotionally cold once hurt, or not interested anymore.”

“I will never try to keep someone around if they aren’t worth my time. But if they are, I will do everything I can to make that person happy.”

“Virgo’s are not insulting you. They are describing you.”

“Virgo's get really cranky when you ask them very stupid questions. Especially after they told you the first time.”

“Virgo's are one of the main signs to suffer in silence. They internalize a lot of hurt feelings and stress.”

“Virgo's best match is someone who can hold a conversation in a boardroom and talk dirty in the bedroom!”

“Virgo's always have a plan B on Whatever they do.”

“Ask a Virgo for an opinion on any matter, and they will give you the most truthful answer even if it hurts you.”

“Virgo their little secret: They’re awkward about a lot of things but they know how to cover it up.”

“If overthinking situations burned calories, I’d be dead.”

“Raise your words, not your voice. it is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.”

“Virgo's are incredibly tough on the outside, but need someone who knows when to tell them that they’re proud of them and to relax.”

“Sarcasm is not an attitude. It is an art. And Virgo’s are the Picasso of this art.”

Only a few more days remain for Leo sun signs who follow me here to take advantage of the birthday special for $15-$35 off listed rates for session. Typically being the sign of the generous you can also purchase one extra gift session to give to a friend or family member that they can use for up to one full year, both in-office or by phone or video chat. Because I began studying numerology and Astrology when I was about 18. I was always aware of what my life path was going to be about and it made it a bit easier to find my place in the world. When we get older we often forget how scary it was for teenagers and even early twenties trying to figure out who they are and what they are her to do and be!

I Highly recommend giving a gift session to anyone 16 years old and up! Message me on messenger or by email at [email protected] before the sale ends on August 22nd

I have noticed whenever a big change is on its way, or a long time dream is about to appear in the tangible world for myself often the number 22 appears in ways that would be hard not to notice. On license plates, waking up at 222 or other variations of the 22, seeing it on receipts, street and house numbers, etc…
I have been explaining this to clients and also sharing ways that they can create more of this energy of assistance and helpers both from other people and from the Otherworld.

You can check out one or both of the audios about this at:

I have been talking about the emotional, energetic patterns behind disease and illness on some of my social media sites.. Louise Hay’s book You Can Heal Your Life was groundbreaking insight into understanding causes behind illness. Over twenty years ago I talked about patterns behind the AIDS crisis and talked about it when I originally launched my Snake Oil Podcast. I shared a powerful story that was both sad and also showed that sometimes family fails us and why we may need to find new families. I discuss the pattern behind this affliction in the first audio. The second auto (Link below) is the story of Jason.

Happy Birthday Leo!

“The vibration of Leo, ruled by the Sun itself, is almost tangible, a thing you can actually feel throughout your whole being in the presence of a Lion or Lioness.” Linda Goodman

“For a Leo, it’s not so much about stroking their ego--they just want love. They love to be loved and give it in return.”

“I have simple tastes. I am always satisfied with the best.”

“Leo’s are sometimes shy, but once confidence has been built, they show no fear.”

“The great thing about Leo's is that they know how to be soft and tender when they need to be...and straight up hardcore when they need to be.”

“Leo dresses in their own style. They do not follow fashion. They make fashion.”

“I don’t like forced conversations, forced friendships, I simply do not force things. If we don’t vibe, we don’t vibe.”

“Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.”

“I have such an ego ‘cause I’m a double Leo (Leo Sun and Leo rising). I can’t let go of me, you know, so it’s very difficult for me to be somebody else and not me. I’m so into me.” Paul Mooney

“When a Leo says ‘whatever’ it has a little go f #*& yourself’ in it.”

“Their little secret: What gets to them the most is the feeling of failure, no matter how big or how small it is.”

“Leo’s tend to become irritated by slow-paced things such as slow walkers, slow drivers, and slow minded people.”

“A Leo isn’t disrespectful, they’re just honest. They give you the same level of respect you give them.”
