VORTEX

     We're in an astrological vortex. It's not the cold winter Polar vortex, but it's just as powerful. In April, four planetary energies are meeting around us, and we are right in the middle, and our lives are being shaped by this vortex that some astrologers are calling the Grand Cardinal Cross.
     To keep it very simple, four energies are: Freedom, Power, Abundance, and Action. In your life you can notice the ways each of these themes are being expressed. You can notice the choices you have made. And you can make new choices about how free you are to use power in the most positive ways. And you can take new actions, do some things differently.
     Just as the Polar Vortex surrounded people in my part of the country with a massive feeling of numbness, the astrological vortex surrounds us with a powerful feeling of urgency, possibility, liberation, and the dread that one feels coming face to face with Reality.
