| Dear Friend,
Happy US Thanksgiving!
I was always a big Thanksgiving enthusiast, I love my family and I love feeling gratitude, so it was pretty much a no-brainer.
As I'm evolving, I'm seeing Thanksgiving not only for its light, but also for its darkness: the genocide of millions of Indigenous peoples and the annual slaughter of millions of gentle, affectionate turkeys.
Everything that casts light has a shadow. Everything.

The Shadow contains the parts of ourselves we reject. It also holds the parts of history we reject.
As
much as we all love the light, we must embrace the shadow. Reject your shadow and
you are rejecting a source of great healing, great power, and great
peace. You're also keeping your self-sabotage alive and kicking...
In
a world that is pushing you every moment to see things in absolute terms, I invite you to consider duality. In the face
of over-simplification, I invite you to consider complexity. In the
face of "that's how I grew up," I invite you to re-visit and reboot. We
can learn to sit with and hold opposing truths; through the
understanding of polarities, wisdom is born.
This year, I feel more able
to celebrate joy and blessings while also being an ally and taking
real actions to become part of much-needed solutions. And let me say just one thing about giving and service - it's the most wildly satisfying thing in the world!!! Please give time and support to causes you believe in, and we all win.
To support Indigenous Peoples*:
... just a few possibilities...
Adopt a Native Elder: https://anelder.org/
Native Americans in Philanthropy https://nativephilanthropy.org/
Seventh Generation Fund for Indigenous Peoples https://7genfund.org/
To support turkeys and all beings:
Become vegan. You'll get plenty of protein.The only think you'll give up... (whispering very quietly) ... is taking the lives of innocents.

| Our family wants to be together too!!! |
| The last 3 years have tested us all in new ways. My career and my business have dramatically changed as I've released what no longer fit. The spirit of rebirth is always both scary and exciting, and I'm feeling both a lot!
One thing that hasn't changed one tiny bit is how amazing YOU are. It is always humbling how much love and support you give... still catches me by surprise. I especially thank you for your major, out-loud support of my leaving the Society, both privately and on social media. I feel so much lighter and so much more able to fulfill my Soul mission without trying to conform to something both draining and outgrown.
Never wonder if I see you. I do. I see you and I care. You motivate me. I hope to give more and serve more than ever going forward, my plans for 2023 are equal parts new free offerings, new products, improvements to current calendars and love compatibility reports, and getting back to working on my next book, Astro-Goddesses.
I am truly, and forever, SO VERY GRATEFUL for you!
May your holiday season, and the new year, be truly blessed and filled with MIRACLES!
Love,
