Happy Lunar New Year of the Fire Horse on a Solar Eclipse Mardi Gras Day! 🌑🔥🐎💜⚜️💚Whew! That’s a lot for one day. It’s the Dark Moon so it’s a great time for introspection, meditation, contemplation. It’s also a solar eclipse over Antarctica.

If you’ve felt stuck or still in hibernation mode, things may start to come unstuck and move forward now. It’s still winter but it might feel like it’s time to plan a garden or your year ahead now if you haven’t done that yet. We haven’t had a fire horse year since 1966 so there may be lots of change, transformation, and movement ahead. So hang on tight and get ready to blaze your trail.

It’s also Mardi Gras and if all you know of that is booze and beads, you’re missing out on a vast and colorful culture of music, food, and traditions! New Orleans was a second home to me for many years. The music and food is my fave! Pete and I went to our first Portland Mardi Gras Ball with a Sea of Love theme over the weekend and won Best Mardi Gras Costume for our Princess Ariel and Prince Eric Go to Mardi Gras ! 💜⚜️💚 Swipe to see pix! Tonight I’m making crawfish and crab jambalaya with gf cornbread!

Whatever and however you celebrate today, I wish peace, prosperity, and happiness! And if you need a tuneup, reach out!
