Hand Reading has never associated the ring finger with weddings or love, not as far back as the ancients. It was the early Romans who believed that the fourth finger had a vein (called Vena Amoris) that connected directly to the heart. In hand reading intimacy is the purview of the pinky.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.

Melania: Avoiding The Spotlight While Living In The Spotlight First Lady Melania Trump has never been one to relish the spotlight. What's behind her need to remain unknowable? Her oddly distorted ring finger holds the key.

In Hand Analysis, the condition of the ring finger reveals how comfortable one is expressing their authentic self. #handanalysis #palmistry #handreading #melaniatrump #lifeinthespotlight #characteranalysis #wheresmelania

"What you choose to arm yourself with, love or hate, exposes which side you're fighting on." I'm not used to seeing messages about love from politicians. We need more of this. #love #themostpowerfulforce #governwithlove

The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion --Albert Camus

I was feeling like continuing to speak about self-development while the world is on fire was misguided, then I found this quote. Stay in your hearts, live your truth, and create beauty to counter all the ugliness. #artisresistance #camusquote #free #makeart #resist

The Saturn Neptune Conjunction and The Fate of The Federal Reserve As the fight to maintain independence of the central bank erupts, the conjunction of Saturn and Neptune are square Pluto in the chart of the Federal Reserve, pitting reality against illusion.

I wrote this back in August of 2025 when Saturn and Neptune dipped into Aries before retrograding back into Pisces. As Saturn re-enters Aries, the Fed is once again under attack from Trump, this time going after Fed chair Jerome Powell. #mundaneastrology #federalreserve #saturninaries #astrology

Choosing Love As An Act Of Dissidence The current state of world chaos, marked by obsession, addiction, deep division and propensity for violence, can be described as a "loss of soul." The cure is not to be found in logic.

My heart is heavy, thinking about the tragic shootings, first in Minneapolis, and now in my beloved Portland. Yes, I'm angry. But anger eats the soul. I'm choosing to stay in my heart. Love is, after all, the most powerful force in the universe. #lossofsoul #grief #poweroflove #resist

This was a wonderful read. I knew a little about Obon, but I learned so much more about Japanese traditions concerning the dead. This made me smile: "And each year, insecticide manufacturers hold memorial services for the cockroaches and flies their products have exterminated." Thank you!

I’ve been known to have conversations with the dead now and then. Maybe I need to start teaching others in the time I have left here. Also, do you have a resource where I can learn more about them?

Reading this made me sad. We need more people with these kinds of gifts in the world, not less.

Is Kash Patel Giving Taxpayers The Middle Finger? House Democrats are demanding an explanation for why Kash Patel has been using taxpayer funded flights for personal playtime. His fingers reveal all we need to know about his reasons.

In total, three of his fingers are bent. Bent fingers mean the energy isn't being expressed in a forthright manner. #handanalysis #palmistry #chirognomy #kashpatel #palmreading

It will straddle my Midheaven. That's exciting!

The way I look at past lives in the chart allows for correction of past life problems through tests in this lifetime, hopefully leading to growth in the area being tested. So yes, up to this point he is failing the tests in THIS lifetime.

Hegseth's chart is interesting. Scorpio on the 12th house cusp, to me, reveals past life delusions of grandeur when it comes to power, especially with its ruler, Pluto, retrograde in the 10th. Both reveal a lifetime of being tested over and over. I think he's failing those tests.

The Simian Crease is found in less than 3% of the population. Because of my work I've met many people with the single crease, intense and interesting individuals, all. I would add that I find all my clients to be fascinating because we are all one of a kind, despite cultural expectations.

What? January 6th is a Hoax now? Oh wait, it was a love fest. Now I remember. 🤦‍♀️
