🚨 so, some news...I'm now a staff writer for Star/Child, the astrology app for parents (& future parents, & anyone who's healing their inner child) ✨ I've (mostly) pivoted out of journalism & into the stars! pinch me!
go download the app! we launched free trials today 📱
I’ve got a very fun, VERY gay #journorequest for Power Bottom Appreciation day (Oct. 30): I’m looking to speak to queer people who identify this way and find pleasure and empowerment in it.
is that you? DM me for details, or drop me a line: hello[at]sammanzella[dot]com 💌
Over the next 8 months:
Pluto enters Aquarius
The nodes enter Pisces & Virgo
Neptune enters Aries
Saturn enters Aries
Uranus enters Gemini
So many phases are ending and it’s like we’re entering a whole new world.
also: if you want to a practice/habit to endure (another Saturnian principle), shame and self-punishment are maybe the worst, most damaging motivators. you can't hate yourself into making lasting lifestyle changes
took me like 7-9 months of refusing to shame or coerce myself into doing things (ie exercise when I didn’t feel like it) before I truly grokked this in my bones — discipline can be one of the highest forms of self love
"Remaining empathetic and not apathetic, prioritizing community care, daring to dream bigger than our amoral, ineffectual political system—this is how we move forward."
