May 08, 2021
Sometimes, life doesn’t seem to make any sense. Albert Einstein once said “insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” Here’s the funny thing. We will say that line about someone else, have a good chuckle, and then DO THE SAME THING OURSELVES! This time, it’s not that funny, is it? I know. I’ve done it myself.
I will be sharing 3 examples of seemingly paradoxical behaviour from people who have been in my private practice. (Of course, I have changed the names and some of the demographics to respect their confidentiality).

“I Wish Trump Could Die”
May 08, 2021
A reader commented on the photo here as follows: I wish he (Trump) could die.
I don’t.
Sure, he richly deserves punishment, but I care far more about the fate of this country than I do about the justice that is due to one person, albeit a walking force for pure evil.
The Trump phenomenon needs to be thoroughly repudiated. This nation’s people need to understand that racism, lies, greed, selfishness, criminality, cruelty, and revenge are not valid ways of behaving–for anyone–and certainly the President of the United States.
Is this about to happen? There’s no way to ...

Brazil’s Bolsonaro Faces Criminal Investigation, Possible Impeachment Over COVID Response
May 08, 2021
From the PBS News Hour: Brazil formalized a criminal investigation last week into President Jair Bolsonaro’s response to the pandemic. It could lead to his impeachment. The country just passed 400,000 total fatalities so far, with no significant slowdown in sight.
Humankind doesn’t seem to be learning that would-be fascists have one thing in common: a total indifference to the suffering of others. Here in the U.S., as our death toll approaches 600,000, we learned not too long ago our Bolsonaro, Donald Trump, ruining America’s pandemic with a mixture of lies, incompetence, and revenge against political enemies, all ...

More on Former Trump Campaign Attorney Sidney Powell
May 08, 2021
Yesterday I mentioned this piece in Bloomberg that begins: Dominion Voting Systems Inc. blasted former Trump campaign attorney Sidney Powell for telling a judge that her claims about a vast election-fraud conspiracy were merely opinions in order to dodge the company’s $1.3 billion defamation suit repeatedly (even though she) had repeatedly and falsely claimed in public that she had proof Dominion rigged the 2020 election against Donald Trump, saying she could “hardly wait to put forth all the evidence” and that “you would have to be a damn fool” not to believe it.

In September 2015, Apple managers had a dilemma on their hands: should, or should they not, notify 128 million iPhone users of what remains the worst mass iOS compromise on record? Ultimately, all evidence shows, they chose to keep quiet.
The mass hack first came to light when researchers uncovered 40 malicious App Store apps, a number that mushroomed to 4,000 as more researchers poked around. The apps contained code that made iPhones and iPads part of a botnet that stole potentially sensitive user information.

Venus is well known for her guise as goddess of love and beauty, but she also has deeper meanings. She is associated with our values, including our self-esteem and how deeply we value our own selves, and therefore is important for increasing abundance which is directly tied to self-worth (both are associated with the astrological second house).
