Hello and happy New Moon!

Something we haven't discussed much in this newsletter is my lifelong relationship with astrology—a relationship that, by way of my motherline, has been complicated, powerful, and amazing all at once.

As a result, you may not know about my deep exploration of what I call the Deep Imagination, particularly through the peculiar and potent corner of astrology known as Sabian degree symbols. (This exploration actually informs the Dreamfruit adventure we journey through together in each month Lunar Tale.)

I'm sharing this personal piece for two important reasons.

First, because this month's theme of Distinction creates a golden hour for recognizing your particular, idiosyncratic path in this world. What is yours to express? What unique wonders naturally pour through you? We truly need each person's truest weird to shine through at this time.

Wilderness guide and depth psychologist Bill Plotkin of Animas Valley Institute speaks of "soul" as one's ecological niche—a description I explore in this month's video. What particular role in the great dance of interdependence is yours to fulfill?

Second, because I had the privilege of creating a self-guided ritual exploring the deep imagination through Sabian symbols as part of a very special offering designed to help you remember your personal blueprint and feel encouraged to express it boldly in the world.

This workshop, The Dreaming Wheel, offers a brand new exploration of the Deep Imagination and the astro-degree symbols as tools for connecting with the voice of Nature and Cosmos. It's part of the Soul Care Bundle—a generous collection of 14 unique offerings of cosmic wisdom, soul nourishment, and aligned success from remarkable women guides and teachers.

What's included: You'll receive access to a curated collection of astrology, human design, and business alignment tools PLUS personalized readings from some amazing practitioners who have come together to support you in your journey at this vital time on Earth.

The details: This $165 bundle (valued at over $800) is available only until Saturday August 23rd. Each offering can be accessed in your own time, making this a rich resource you can return to throughout the year. Scroll down for more info.

I hope this bundle serves you well as we navigate the transformative landscape ahead, supporting you in claiming your unique eco-niche in the web of life.

With that, let's look at a brief excerpt from this month's Dreamfruit tale...

“ Show your true face. In the dream of the Distinction Moon, the rains come and make it plain to see. The stones themselves reveal their most true and beautiful faces. Ecological elves peek out through our eyes as a greengold glow burns through the heavy veil of forgetting. The whole of the forest gathers as living witness to the returned earthlings. Those who remember kinship. It's a mirror, yet not a mirror. The faces of earth and sky shine through our companions, through ourselves. And do we stand in our dignity? As guardian to ancestors, kin, and descendants? Yes. Do not waiver in your earthling gaze." — Dreamfruit 2025, Distinction Moon

I'll leave you with this month's journal prompt: Who or what encourages you to be who you truly are?

My weird to your weird,

If you know someone who is looking for ways to deepen their belonging with life on Earth, please share!
