I think of my sensitivity as both a handicap and a super power. I heard someone say that being highly sensitive isn’t an obstacle or something to overcome. They talked about taking the pain that comes with high sensitivity and turning it into power. That’s alchemy. And while I don’t think high sensitivity is something…

THE TENDERS ARE THE SENSITIVES
I’m a tender, a sensitive. You probably know if you are one. For as long as I can remember, I’ve known I am different in this way. On the sensitivity bell curve, I am softer than most people. I feel afraid of judgement as I write this because I have been told repeatedly in some…
WHY TENDERLOIN?
When my daughter learned that Tenderloin Touch® was the name I had chosen for my massage therapy practice, she said, “It sounds like the name of a butcher’s shop.” And I suppose it does to someone who doesn’t know the story behind it. But before I explain, I must first tell you how a San…
12th HOUSE PROFECTION YEARS (PART II)
In Part I, I defined the term, profection, while also acknowledging that delusions and illusions belong in the 12th house. Because this is my 12th house profection year, this is the perfect time for me to intentionally focus on creating through (positive) delusion. But before I tell you the details of my strategy, let me…
CREATING THROUGH THE ART OF DELUSION IN THE 12th HOUSE
Based on the title, I may sound like I am contradicting myself since I just said in the last entry, that for me, denial was no more an option than was confirmation bias. So let me explain. By now, if you have read more than a few entries, you know why I like to reference…
CONFIRMATION BIAS VERSUS DENIAL
The times when I was so sure I was right only to discover I wasn’t, are what have made me repeatedly err on the side where caution is thrown to the wind. Many times I have talked myself out of knowing what I know by reminding myself of all the instances in which I was…
DO I HAVE A THIRD NOSTRIL?
It was six days between the last entry and the one before that. In between those writings, we experienced a partial lunar eclipse. And during that time, I just couldn’t write. So, I spent more time cleaning out the over-filled garage But let me back up to a few months prior. In May, I had…
IDENTITY CRISIS: THE CRAZY LADY
Other people taught me that my experiences and perspectives are not normal and therefore neither believable nor valid. For me, to not be believed, is so painful. To be thought of as a crazy person who cannot help but to lie, was at one point, intolerable for me. Let me give you an example. My…
IDENTITY CRISIS: THE DRUG ADDICT
My mother is seventy-six years old and she’s never tried alcohol or drugs, ever. I haven’t asked my father about his teenage years. But either way, us kids grew up in a sober household. So when I got fired, I had never tried anything except tobacco and only once. I smoked a cigar at age…
CHIRON AT 28°
Connie Jo, an astrologist with Soul Navigation, whose video I have posted below, says the degree of Chiron within the natal chart, often reveals when the wound started or manifested. My Chiron sits at twenty-eight degrees. In my case, the degree matches the age at which a significant event occurred. This was one in which…
