As much as I enjoy sharing snippets of my astrology content on TikTok, the reality that TikTok will be banned on January 19th has become a reality and this has prompted me to rethink how I present my content. While creating short videos is exciting, I've recognized that having a centralized platform for my posts could improve our connection. That's why I'm thrilled to announce the launch of this blog and a new email newsletter!
The TikTok and Facebook Dilemma
TikTok has played a significant role in my creative journey, allowing me to share fragments of my astrological practice and thoughts in a lively and timely manner. However, the unpredictability surrounding the app's future has led me to seek a more reliable platform. With over 1 billion users, TikTok's appeal is clear, but volatility is a constant concern. Also, with Facebook having fraudulently stolen over $1,200 from me while I was running ads on my professional astrology page, refusing to refund it to me, then shadow banning me after I reported them for it, and this has made it incredibly hard for me to reach my followers. I have decided that I will not be using Facebook/Meta as a platform for my business going forward and since their business practices don't align with my values, I simply can't support them. All of this has been a key factor in why creating my own blog and platform here was such a huge decision for me.
By establishing a blog, I’m creating a home for my ideas that won't be affected by app updates, regulatory changes or shadow bans. This space allows me to explore topics in depth, explain astrological events or aspects and their meanings for the world without fear of what I'm saying being banned or blocked, encourage thoughtful discussions, and really make this space a unique entity.
The Power of a Centralized Hub
Having this blog means all my content is now in one easy-to-access location. You won't have to scroll through endless updates or try to recall what I mentioned in that one TikTok clip or Facebook update. Everything will be located in one easy to locate space where I plan to bring you YouTube video updates, and also offer webinars, classes, and an astrological related handmade craft line in the future!
Introducing My Email Newsletter
That’s not all! To further enhance our relationship, I’m launching an email newsletter. These updates will feature exclusive content, behind-the-scenes insights, and perhaps a few surprises. Picture receiving an email packed with when my blog updates get updated, projects that are in the works, new craft item launches, and tips on working with planetary energies, all delivered directly to your inbox.

Here we are! This blog and my email newsletter are designed to ensure that I’m not just another voice in the noisy world of TikTok and Facebook. I want to cultivate a space where I can bring you all the best astrology content in one easy to manage space!
