    Daily Horoscopes: Scorpio Moon Insights Today

    Today’s daily horoscopes are influenced by this morning’s Scorpio Moon: which brings all the feels and zero chill. Mercury is squaring both Saturn and Neptune today — so if your brain feels like it’s arguing with itself, you’re not alone. Miscommunications, delays, overreactions… the potential is there. But so is insight. Pair that with Jupiter’s powerful entrance into Cancer this afternoon, and something inside you may start to feel possible again. ARIES (March 21 – April 19)You’re not imagining it—everyone does seem a little more sensitive today. Mercury is clashing with Saturn and Neptune, and it’s triggering your no-filter tendencies. Say less,…

    Largest-ever map of the universe reveals 10x more early galaxies than expected

    In the name of open science, the multinational scientific collaboration COSMOS on Thursday released the data behind the largest map of the universe. Called the COSMOS-Web field, the project, built with data collected by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), consists of all the imaging and a catalog of nearly 800,000 galaxies spanning nearly all of cosmic time. And it’s been challenging existing notions of the infant universe. “Our goal was to construct this deep field of space on a physical scale that far exceeded anything that had been done before,” said UC Santa Barbara physics professor Caitlin Casey, who…

    Music That Stuck With You & Formed You

    With Venus square Neptune, I’m well aware of what can happen when music is involved! I often refuse to listen to it as I don’t always want to stir my deep feelings. Today, in my stupidity,  I put on some of my mother’s music; Simon & Garfunkel, specifically. I’m grateful for having grown up exposed to storytelling in music. I admired Paul Simon! I did not want to end up, “A Most Peculiar Man“(though I sort of may have)! I rejected, Richard Cory, and his power, grace and style as well! I definitely didn’t want to be a Rock or…

    Safety Wing Review (Updated 2025)

    Budget travelers love saving money — myself included. But one of the expenses that we shouldn’t be cheap with is travel insurance. After over 17 years of traveling the world, I still never leave home without it. Why? Because I’ve seen firsthand how useful it can be — and how much money it can save. I’ve lost baggage, had my camera broken, and even needed emergency medical help over the years. Travel insurance has been there for me each time. Not only has it saved me money but it’s provided me with peace of mind as I explore. I’ve written…

    Hiking the Sultan’s Trail in Eastern Europe – Stage 1: Vienna to Bratislava

    As our followers on Facebook already know, we are hiking the 2500-km-long Sultan’s Trail from Vienna to Istanbul. After Coen was diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer last summer, we decided that the best remedy to pull ourselves together and reclaim our lives was to walk. Hence this big adventure. We’re doing this for ourselves – for our well-being and to celebrate life – and we are combining it with a fundraiser for research into this particular type of cancer: glioblastoma (GBM). We’d love for you to join us in both journeys: the hike and the fundraising, which we’re running through the…
