Moon in Libra is all about relationships. Examine how the relationships in our lives create our reality and influence who we are and where we're going.

Reaping the Harvest: Full Moon in Aries – October 2017

A Soliloquy
Last weekend, I spent my time up in the woods of New Hampshire at an herbal retreat for women.
