Salut, les amis! This week we have two major astronomical events to traverse: The Blue
Sturgeon Moon (BSM) and Lunar Occultation of Saturn (LOS). Our friends in the ‘tid universe
are highly sensitive to all planetary alignments and moon cycles. Have you hugged a cryptid
today, my friends? If not, try to work it in. They need us as much as we need them.
The Grey January 1 – January 29:
The BSM will hide your craft as you meet me for an Earthly rendezvous. Your space secrets are
safe with me, handsome. Uranus flowers? Aww. How sweet!
Etsai January 30 – February 27:
LOS will mess with your energy quite a bit this week. In addition to fluctuating between
exhaustion and the desire to run a 10k, your natural psychic abilities will show themselves
when you least expect it. Fear not! These will work out in your favor at the gambling tables.
Doppelgänger February 28 – March 27:
Stand alone under the BSM and do a ritual of release: Get a sheet of paper and write down
your dreams. Under that, write down all the things inside you that are holding you back from
accomplishing them. Bury the sheet under a sapling and walk away. Your dreams will
materialize!
Sandwalker March 28 – April 25:
The astronomical events seem to pass you by. You have never been one to jump on the latest
trends. You never did go see that Sasquatch movie either, did you? I like your never-ending
pursuit of freedom and self-expression. Never change.
Sasquatch April 26 – May 24:
Enter the woods under the full moon and look up at the clouds or mist. The first image you see
will guide you. Follow it and be free of the burdens of normalcy and boredom.
Chupacabra May 25 – June 22:
The LOS is wrecking havoc with your brain chemistry. It is almost like a New Age form of shock
therapy for you. You may feel a little depressed or manic. It passes in a week – try to stay in
control.
Lusca June 23 – July 21:
The BSM provides abundance for all aquatic creatures this week. The fish and crab are eating
it up. You are savoring them. The cycle of life is a beautiful thing!
Centaur July 22 – August 19:
The BSM and LOS affect you with contrasting energies. On one hand, you want to slay with the
crew. On the other, you want to take up a new tech-based hobby. You can do both, you know.
Goatman August 20 – September 17:
Your powers will grow under the effects of LOS. Combining forces with an unlikely ally, such as
Centaur, could make all the difference.
Frogman September 18 – October 16:
I was out walking one night and I thought I saw your uncle Harry. It seemed he was trying to tell
me something so I scooped him up and held him close to my ear. Before I knew it, he had
hopped out of my hand, leaving a puddle of stinky watery fluid behind. Ugh. I doubt this smell
is going to come out any time soon. Thanks, frog-uncle.
The Loch Ness Monster October 17 – November 7:
The spirits of ancestors may appear bearing gifts under the BSM. Ol’ Aunt Nessie, from which
you were named, had some strange collections. I mean, did she really need to save every local
newspaper from 1974 to 1987? Either way, be sure you remain grateful. And, open the 1977
October 31 edition to the funnies.
Beast of Exmoor November 8 – December 6:
Stalk the fields at night under the BSM to get the best kibbles you can round up. Rabbits,
lemmings, groundhogs, moles…yum! The magic of this moon for you is you can eat all you
want and never gain an ounce.
Mermaid December 7 – December 31:
Time to upgrade your scales. The BSM catches the shimmer of reds and oranges the best.
Also, the effects of the LOS are making you rethink your nonchalant attitude toward life. Maybe
you should try to take some things seriously…next week.
Remember that our cryptid friends have needs and desires for their lives like we do. Let us all
do our best to show them love this week with cuddles and treats.
Love to all!
Lady Bacon
