We’re seven days into Mercury Retrograde at the birthing of this Piscean New Moon. Many of you’ve probably felt the initiations of Mercury slowing down the week of February 9th, just before the planet of communication turns “backward.” The pre-Retrograde time period sometimes brings a storm of chaotic energy just before it’s official. We mention this Mercury Retrograde because it’s in dynamic union with this New Moon. With both Mercury, the Moon, and the Sun in watery Pisces, we may feel more em...

“Feminism is becoming an antiquated term for a new awareness of human identity.” -Viva Blanca Kate and Toni talk about the F-word: Feminism. With all the activation of women’s voices and our increasing presence and power in the political, social, and economic realms in western culture, it seems to us that a new definition of Feminism is needed. The outdated understanding of having to become like men in order to prove worth, validate existence, or earn equal pay no longer applies. And so – what d...

MONEY: In what will most likely be a topic we revisit because it’s so very hot, Toni + Kate take a dive into What, exactly is Money? How does it operate? And how do we relate to it? Both Kate and Toni share about their upbringings, stumbling blocks, and perhaps even - moments of “winning” in their personal relationships with money.

Tongue-suicide is the "rousing language to keep citizens armed and arming; slaughtered and slaughtering in the malls, courthouses, post offices, playgrounds, bedrooms and boulevard." That's where we start our dialogue today. How do we heal and recover from tongue-suicide?
