Dear Readers,
My apologies for going MIA in January and not communicating since.
I had a heart attack in mid-January—I like to say that Pluto went into Aquarius and I had a heart attack but alas, I cannot blame it on the stars. I’ve been in recovery ever since, and for several months of that process I developed an aversion to technology of any sort. Email, text messages, computers, phones—you name it. I trusted my instincts and when I was ready I finally made it back online.
In those intermediary months, many of you got in touch and asked what was happening. Again, my apologies. I was truly incapacitated and unable to deal with a lot of responsibilities. One of the big decisions of the last six months was to discontinue The Aquarium Age. I started writing the column for the East Bay Express in 1996 and it’s been twenty-eight Earth years, or in astrological years, nearly a Saturn cycle.
I truly appreciate those readers who have been loyal to the column and to my writing. We’ve been through a lot of astro-changes in the last many years. Sometimes it feels as if nothing has changed and at other times, it feels like everything has shifted into a new, and barely recognizable, dimension. Yet as the planetary cycles teach us, we’ve been through this before and we will make it through once again.
Thank you all for your patience and your kindness, as well as for your loyalty through The Aquarium Age Saturn cycle. May that patience, kindness, and loyalty be returned to you many, manyfold.
