Astrology Writing and Consultations from a Canadian Perspective
Like many people across Canada and the world, I have been eagerly following the story of the trucker convoy that is making its way across Canada in protest of COVID vaccine mandates and border restrictions. I want to take some time to look at the …
It’s a very strange, disorienting sensation to lose your sense of smell and taste. I have COVID right now. Around day five, I realized I could barely smell or taste anything. I noticed this at breakfast that morning; my coffee was one-note and lacking any …
