ONLINE, JULY 9:
UNSAFE PROPOSALS
Gov. Lujan Grisham’s insistence on pushing forced mental health treatment during the special legislative session was alarming and irresponsible. She has tried to legislate expanded involuntary commitment for the past two decades, failing every year until a watered-down version finally passed.
Why? Because many of us here in New Mexico want to protect our civil and human rights.
It is widely publicized that proposed legislation will not only allow involuntary commitment but will expand the scope of who is a candidate for it, by broadening the definitions of competency and “harm to self or others.” It opens the door to unjustly relegating an individual to a lifetime of irreversible damage and suffering.
Using this approach in our judicial system does not ensure public safety or the safety of individuals sentenced to so-called mental treatment. It is widely known that the majority of treatment is psychotropic
drugging (chemical restraint), which has been shown to contribute to homicide and violence—the opposite of what is safe.

Comida & Community
Southside organizers push for civic plazas,
BY EVAN CHANDLER evan@sfreporter.com
In a dirt lot off Airport Road near Dollar General, a blue food truck sits with a red open sign beaming from the top right corner of the unit. A truck pulls up with music lightly playing from the vehicle’s window. The driver steps out, orders his food and drives off shortly after.
That scenario could change, with new efforts underway to establish “civic plazas” for food trucks on the Southside that would include: tables and seating; opportunities for community gathering; cultural performances and vaccination clinics.
“What we’re looking to do is talk to food truck owners and operators, survey commercial business interest, survey customers and talk to the landowners,” Earth Care CoDirector Miguel Acosta, whose organization focuses on community development, says. “We want input from our stakeholders, and we can also use it as an opportunity to increase the local conversation around community economic development.” Acosta tells SFR the team hired a local surveyor to do a preliminary analysis to study the idea with the help of a portion of a $35,000 McCune Charitable Foundation grant.
Rigo’s Gorditas and More food truck owner Rigoberto Hidalgo tells SFR he’s in support of the efforts, saying people have asked for tables since he first opened the business three years ago.
“As a business that believes in always attending to our customers well, the priority is to make the customer feel like they’re at
home,” Hidalgo says in Spanish. “So we did it at first, and the city came and told us to take the tables down.”
He adds he’s wanted to bring the food truck vendors together to talk with city officials about allowing for tables.
“It’s a little unfair because they don’t implement the law on every truck,” Hidalgo says. “There are plenty of trucks downtown that have tables; however, the city doesn’t ask them to remove the tables. Only here on Airport Road.”
City of Santa Fe Code Compliance Supervisor Jason Sena says that’s not an accurate characterization of the situation. Rather, he tells SFR, many of the food trucks downtown—such as the ones near the Roundhouse and Kaune’s Neighborhood Market—have tables because a nearby business has a patio with tables and chairs and allows those who buy food from the mobile vendors to sit and eat there.
“It’s hard because there’s more food trucks on Airport than there are up north, but my inspectors go out all over the city,” Sena says. “It’s not that we’re picking on them, it’s just something in the ordinance and it’s a life safety thing. I would hate for some people to be sitting out there enjoying their meal and a car drives up and plows into them.”
Andres Romero, the code enforcement officer tasked with Airport Road and the surrounding area, tells SFR he estimates he only issues a citation regarding tables and chairs outside food trucks once a year. While he wishes the law “would be a little more le-
of tables and chairs—but there’s still work to be done.
“Something that we’re very interested in as we look at opportunities for dynamism in different parts of the city is where we might be able to bring in food trucks to a specific area where we can have communities enjoy it,” Cassutt says. “Miguel has been such a wonderful resource in working with the various vendors and bringing back some of the feedback of the challenges that they’re experiencing so that we can move forward. We want to make it streamlined in terms of city processes, more accessible to the public and really provide the opportunity for the public to have an enjoyable food truck experience.”
Following updates, she says, the city would need to identify either a private or public property to make a civic plaza happen. From there, Interim Land Use Director Heather Lamboy tells SFR the city staff would have to review a development plan to make sure all necessary standards are met, including safe access to the property and Americans with Disabilities Act compliance. She adds the department would need to “buffer any impacts” to adjacent residential and commercial properties if music was involved.
nient,” he says he’s “just here to do my job.” Sena adds he’d “surely support” the idea to create civic plazas, but ultimately it’s up to the City Council.
District 4 Councilor Jamie Cassutt tells SFR she’s been working on an update to the 2015 food truck ordinance and code for a couple of years—efforts that started after she heard from constituents about the lack
It’s a little unfair because they don’t implement the law on every truck. There are plenty of trucks downtown that have tables; however, the city doesn’t ask them to remove the tables. Only here on Airport Road.
-Rigoberto Hidalgo, food truck owner
“In concept, certainly we’re supportive,” Lamboy says. “As long as they met all the standards.”
Acosta says he suspects some of the struggle or delay with creating civic plazas could come through brick and mortar restaurants not supporting the proposal due to increased competition. Greater Santa Fe Restaurant Association Executive Director John Bradbury tells SFR that restaurants have not expressed concerns to him about food trucks and tables.
“I think there are probably some. The food truck is mobile, and that might be where a brick and mortar restaurant is, and that might be interesting, problematic or even beneficial,” Bradbury says. “I think the Southside is a great place for food trucks to sort of emerge and be relevant. There’s some kind of cool stuff happening there.”
He adds the association will work with food trucks at an upcoming event in September.
Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce President Bridget Dixson tells SFR she has not heard concerns from restaurants either, but she doesn’t believe efforts related to food trucks would impact or increase competition for them.
“I really feel the food truck is the new answer to fast food, and it can be done in a very, very healthy way, so I don’t feel like it’s a direct competition for restaurants,” Dixson says. “I think it would be amazing if we did have some sort of food truck area where you could have a centralized seating area, almost like a food hall concept.”
Rigo’s Gorditas and More food truck owner Rigoberto Hidalgo says customers have asked for tables since he launched the business three years ago.
Law of the Land
With the EPA hamstrung by SCOTUS and shaky state funding, NM could face reduced oil and gas protections
BY JERRY REDFIN @capitalandmain
Big, transformative bills involving public safety and oil and gas regulation were up for debate during New Mexico’s legislative session at the start of the year. Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham promoted both initiatives, and both died in the Democratic-led Legislature.
Lujan Grisham called a controversial special legislative session last week to get more public safety laws passed in the face of rising violent crime and a booming homelessness problem. Oil and gas industry reform was not, however, on the agenda, even though, in spite of tougher rules, the state continues to uncover clean air violations by the oil and gas industry—violations that lead to health problems today and more climate problems for the future.
Earlier this month, the state environment department announced the results of a six-month inspection with the US Environmental Protection Agency, looking at oil and gas facilities in New Mexico’s portion of the Permian Basin. Of 124 facilities investigated, 75 were emitting volatile organic compounds, which contribute to the formation of ozone, possibly violating state rules and the federal Clean Air Act.
The results of the inspections are part of a systemic problem. According to Environment Secretary James Kenney, the two lawyers in his office already have 79 oil and gas air quality investigations on their plates, comprising 70% of their caseload. Furthermore, he says 15% of New Mexico’s oil production is already happening under federal consent decrees after companies were found to be violating clean air laws.
“I would expect that…percentage to rise based on the most recent round of inspections,” Kenney says.
The recent inspections weren’t random. “We started with satellite data that was looking at emissions,” he says, then used compliance histories and citizen complaints to narrow the field and choose where to inspect.
“Time and time again, the compliance rate sort of tends to hover—no matter when we look or where we look—around a 50%60% number,” Kenney said.
Looked at from the other direction: Wherever the Environment Department looks, 40%-50% of oil and gas production sites fail to meet state and federal air quality standards.
“What stuck out to me [in the announcement] is that 60% of inspected sites have a violation,” Kayley Shoup, an organizer with Citizens Caring for the Future, an industry and environmental watchdog in New Mexico’s portion of the Permian Basin, says. “And I thought to myself, you know, what about everything else that goes uninspected 90% of the time?”
Meanwhile, the number of wells needing inspections keeps growing. Since Lujan Grisham took office in 2019, oil production has more than doubled in New Mexico and state agencies have implemented some of the strictest rules in the nation, such as the Methane Rule and the Ozone Precursor Rule.
But rules are not laws and could be upended by a future state administration. Coupled with recent decisions by the US Supreme Court hamstringing the EPA’s ability to create and enforce its own rules, New Mexico could well face a future with reduced protections from both state and federal agencies.
“It’s important we get the ozone rule codified in statute,” Kenney says. “It needs to be embedded into state law.” Should the state lose EPA backing, he takes a hopeful stand.
“I think the years that we’ve invested with EPA, and the years that my legal team has invested with [the Department of Justice] has given us an enhanced skill set to be able to navigate some of these cases on our own.”
Western Environmental Law Center Executive Director Erik SchlenkerGoodrich isn’t as optimistic.
“I suspect state agencies will buckle under this pressure,” he says.
Increased enforcement also requires increased funding. The environment department has started a process to dramatically increase the permit fees paid by polluters such as oil and gas companies. Those permits allow facilities to release set amounts of pollutants—any excess can be fined, and the fee increases would be earmarked for greater enforcement.
Missi Currier, president and CEO of the New Mexico Oil and Gas Association, the state’s largest industry association, says “Members are dedicated to correcting mistakes when they do occur,” and adds that the association’s “members make every effort to comply with federal and state regulations to help protect the communities in which we operate.“ NMED and EPA’s recent findings, she says, were “based on a small sample of operations.”
Kenney says that oil and gas producers have told him they can’t quickly fix problems in the field because their offices are in Houston or Denver. “Hello, not my problem,” he says. “Hire more people. Hire more New Mexicans. Set up offices here.”
He says, “They have the resources. They have the means.”
In a recent media briefing, Columbia University Climate School Professor Melissa Lott said that the climate is warming faster than previous studies suggested, with dire effects on human health.
Shoup sees that change on the ground, in New Mexico. “The way you do know we’re in a climate crisis…is the heat,” she says. She grew up in Carlsbad in the middle of the Permian Basin, and “it’s not what it was during my childhood, which was not that long ago.”
The results are burned in the landscape around the state. The latest happened in Ruidoso, a cool respite from the baking heat of the Permian Basin, two hours west and 3,500 feet higher in the Sierra Blanca Mountains. In June, the South Fork and
Salt fires torched more than 25,000 acres around Ruidoso, burned 1,400 buildings, killed two people and forced the town to evacuate. Then, as happens after fires burn around New Mexico’s mountain communities, the town evacuated again, after torrential rains fell on the burn scars and washed away homes that had escaped the fires.
Lincoln County, where Ruidoso sits, spent 33 of the last 48 months suffering some level of drought. Since the turn of the millennium, much of New Mexico has been in a drought more often than not.
Lujan Grisham has earmarked millions of dollars to help Ruidoso and the surrounding area in the fires’ aftermath. In addition, Chevron pledged $100,000 to be split between a community foundation and the Mescalero Apache Tribe, whose lands also burned. The Environment Department and EPA found 15 possible Clean Air Act violations at Chevron properties in the Permian Basin during their inspection sweep.
The state methane and ozone precursor rules began with a working group that included state agencies, environmental groups and a large number of oil and gas industry representatives, including Chevron. Kenney’s Environment Department was at the center of the negotiations. “I will proudly say we’ve done our part,” he says. “I need those who are regulated by the rule to proudly do their part as well.”

Environment Secretary James Kenney says oil and gas production sites’ compliance with regulations hovers around 50% to 60%.

We thought we were too young to get cancer. We were wrong.
Reality Bites
I am not the only ‘80s baby dealing with cancer
BY SARA MAGALETTA
Iwas 38 when my symptoms intensified to the degree that I thought I should engage a medical professional.
The now weekly bright red blood in the toilet paired with the constant stomach discomfort and debilitating exhaustion had finally reached an unsettling frequency. I had been experiencing this myriad of symptoms for at least five months. As a woman, I am accustomed to a certain level of discomfort, so when the blood arrived, I did what I’d always done: observed, acknowledged and endured.
A few months later, on my 39th birthday, I met via Zoom with my gastroenterologist. I felt so proud and grown up, following up with specialists regarding my health. This was peak adulting, as I took a selfie to commemorate the moment and jumped into the virtual waiting room. She listened to my concerns, expressed her feelings about my age—surely too young for anything to be too dire—but given my family history of colorectal cancer, she decided it best to schedule a colonoscopy as soon as possible.
I had been warned countless times about the agony of colonoscopy prep, but I lucked out given that due to COVID-19 and the lack of plastics available, I got to use Miralax, instead of GoLYTELY, which I have since faced and understand more why it’s so daunting. Now that colonoscopies are more routine for me, I’ve incorporated prep strategies like using heaps of ice cubes, lime slices to combat nausea (also useful during chemo), eating mango gummy bears and mindlessly binging Bravo throughout the process.
It was an unseasonably rainy morning when we drove down I-25 to my colonoscopy. The April storm clouds and slow traffic presented a harbinger of what was to come. It was the first time I had ever been put under, and I awoke at ease, in awe of Western medicine and eager to thank Brad, the anesthesiologist. My gastroenterologist was deliberate and somber, unwilling to speak until my partner arrived. Once he did, she told us that she found three polyps and she thought that one was cancer. I said, “OK.” My gastroenterologist is a reserved woman, but you could see the shock and sadness in her eyes, the unjustness. I was too young.
There are infinite horror stories of colorectal cancer patients being ignored and misdiagnosed, especially younger ones. So many people have been dismissed or told it was something else. To have a doctor who listened and was proactive saved my life. The day my biopsy results confirmed her suspicion, she picked up the phone and made sure I was cared for by a team of brilliant surgeons and oncologists at the University of New Mexico.
Although my story should be unique, I couldn’t help but think of Halloween three years prior, when my best friend Anna had told me about her lump and our world exploded. It was unfathomable that she was

sick. She was also too young. She had two small children. Her mother had just died of the same disease and I remember being astounded at how unbelievably unfair life could be. I found comfort in the fact that she had survived; though we would have never wished her diagnosis in a million years, her resilience thereafter would inspire me to make it through. Younger people are getting cancer more often but, on a hopeful note, this is also due to improved screening protocols. Unlike in the decades of our childhoods, treatments have advanced and, with early diagnosis, cancer does not have to mean death.
I felt genuine peace with this new information, putting a name to my phantom symptoms. There would be immeasurable hours of waiting in the coming year, but those initial few weeks were the worst. Waiting to learn if the cancer had spread and what the prognosis was, was like watching a broken clock and willing the hands to move.
There is no correct way to tell people you have cancer. Cancer is complicated, confusing and ongoing. Most people have cared for or lost a loved one to the disease. Perhaps that’s why I felt like a burden whenever I tried to share my diagnosis. I didn’t want anyone to worry about me. It was April 2021; who needed more bad news after a year of horror that was the pandemic?
The morning after my colonoscopy, I gathered the courage to email Anna. I was so nervous to tell friends who had lost their parents to cancer, and her mother’s death felt so recent, not to mention Anna’s own experience. I wanted her to be able to process on her own time, without the urgency of an unsolicited call.
My phone rang seconds after I hit send. Hearing Anna’s steady voice brought an instant lump to my throat. I missed my friend. She was making pancakes, and I could hear the clamoring of pots, chairs, her two sons—Max and Freddie—while she somehow calmly told me that it would suck, but it was going to be OK. Anna also immediately connected me with a woman who had a similar diagnosis, which anchored me during the chaos. She knew what I needed before I did: community. It was also during that conversation that she shared the tip I would not understand until years later—that survivorship is the hardest part. I had no idea what she meant, but I never forgot it. It turns out that she was right.
Don’t get me wrong: The treatment was lonely and brutal, a seemingly never-ending series of outlandish and unpredictably painful events. Chemo’s side effects were varying and bizarre. I felt like a human science experiment as I sat there in my sleeveless summer dress while the nurse put on a full hazmat suit to administer the drug that would go directly into my bloodstream. Similarly, during radiation, everyone would flee behind the massive lead doors, while beams of invisible poison burned my insides. Surgery and my ileostomy brought a whole new set of wonders. My partner and I spent hours and hours trying to perfect the angle at which my ostomy bag was connected, and on days when it proved particularly difficult, I sobbed in the shower, refusing to emerge and try again. It was endlessly fascinating. It had to be. The alternative was too grim.
Creating Community
The disheartening truth is people much younger than both of us are getting cancer now, despite their healthy lifestyle choices, and a lot of the support that exists is for older generations. We feel strongly about creating a space to support others going through challenging times, without a built-in bestie by their side.
Healing and Dealing—our newsletter and podcast—is a way for us to connect with people, our greatest joy. The other day someone sent us a message saying that she stumbled upon our Substack, and was about to begin chemo. She told us that our writing made her feel so much better about starting treatment. Sara cried and called Anna immediately.
A bright spot of getting cancer as a woman approaching 40 is that just when society was about to deem me old and useless, I was constantly reminded of how “young” I was. In the year leading up to my 40th birthday, people remarked on my youth more times than ever before.
A few months after diagnosis, radiation ushered me into medically induced menopause. Luckily, Anna was waiting with open arms. While I was fortunate to have decided that I did not want kids before the choice was made for me, it still felt like an extra layer of cruelty. While bombarded with what felt like a million decisions regarding treatment, timing and procedures, one more remained. Upon facing my own mortality, I had to choose whether I would freeze my eggs and eventually bring another life into this world. It was unexpected and rough, especially since I made the unpopular choice. Not only was I losing my chance of ever bearing my own children, I couldn’t even pretend to be sad about it. Following rounds of chemo, radiation, an ileostomy and reversal, which lasted 11 months, I was crushed to learn that I have Lynch syndrome—a genetic condition that places me at a greater risk of getting certain cancers. I burst into tears when my genetic counselor told me of the new findings, and I was shocked by my reaction. I was devastated to be presented with another procedure, but even more surprised when I realized how much I wanted it. I never thought I would undergo elective surgery, I had secretly judged someone else for doing

so weeks earlier. “Yes” was the immediate answer. I even jokingly asked the surgeon to please remove any other unnecessary organs while they were in there. Any way to avoid more cancer, anything.
Last summer’s full hysterectomy pushed me squarely into early menopause and aligned me even more with Anna. In what felt like an instant, our conversations abruptly shifted from lighthearted gossip of late nights at Santa Fe’s former Corazón bar to how to cope with constant low-grade depression, fear of recurrence, vaginal dryness and painful sex. Not in my most outlandish thought spirals did I imagine my best friend and I surviving cancer and entering menopause before we both turned 40. Menopause had always felt so far away, and cancer seems impossible until you’re told you have it. As Anna said, survivorship is the hardest part, and there is not a day that goes by when I don’t feel grateful to be navigating it with her.

37 Going On 57
Cancer treatment pushed me into premature menopause. Then, the same thing happened to my best friend
BY ANNA SULLIVAN
In October 2017, I found a small hard lump sitting just above my right breast. At first, I assumed it was something leftover from breastfeeding my 18-month-old son, Freddie. However, two years earlier, I’d lost my mother to fast-moving bone cancer. I decided to follow up with my primary care doctor just in case.
Following a biopsy, I learned my breast cancer diagnosis was early-onset and estrogen receptor-positive (ER+), meaning it was receptive to medication that lowered the estrogen levels in my body and, in turn, lowered my risk for recurrence. It also meant that I didn’t need chemotherapy. As I sat half naked on an examination table, my doctor explained that given my age and staging, it would be most effective for me to undergo a unilateral mastectomy and hormone therapy. “If we kill the estrogen in your body, and shut down your ovaries, then the malignancy most likely can’t grow back,” he said, as if he were explain-
ing a math equation. “But these medications will induce premature menopause.”
“OK?” I said, not understanding what that meant. I was relieved— ecstatic even—to learn I wouldn’t need chemotherapy, so everything else was gravy. I wasn’t going to be sick for months or lose my hair, which had been another big fear. I was 37 years old, rounding out my years of fertility. The idea of “going into menopause” was abstract, like trying to understand childbirth before experiencing labor pain.
When I left the appointment, I called my best friend, Sara. As soon as I heard her voice, I burst
into tears. She immediately offered to drive to my house and watch my two children so that I could schedule follow-up appointments and consultations with surgeons. “Don’t worry. I’ll be right over,” she said.
We had met in the fall of 2010. Back then Sara drove a silver ‘86 Volkswagen Cabriolet. She’d pick me up at my small adobe rental on Agua Fría, and we’d cruise around town with the top down, singing along to Bruce Springsteen. The highway days for the Cabriolet were long gone, but it didn’t matter. Back then, everything we wanted—and needed—was in Santa Fe.
Over the years, Sara has seen me through all my big life events: my marriage, the births of my children and

my mother’s death. Our friendship was proof that you can still make best friends in your late 20s, and they will stick around through the hard stuff.
Following my mastectomy, my oncologist prescribed a 10year treatment plan of quarterly Lupron injections and a daily medication, Letrozole. Within a matter of weeks, an onslaught of symptoms hit me with brute force. I suffered insomnia and night sweats, muscle and body aches, brain fog, mood swings, fatigue and hot flashes. I also had symptoms of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM), which caused frequent urinary tract infections and vaginal dryness that disrupted my sex life. It felt as though the medications had hijacked my body and left me marooned in an unknown land—menopause.
“This totally sucks,” Sara said over dinner at TerraCotta. “But on the bright side, you’ll never have to experience PMS rage again.” We both laughed. It was a joke that only your best friend could make.
In April 2021, in the midst of COVID-19, Sara called me with alarming news: She had stage 3 colorectal cancer. I failed to hold back tears as Sara told me about her prognosis and complex treatment plan. She was trying to be her usual positive self, but her voice sounded frail and distant. How did this happen? Upon diagnosis, we were both healthy young women without any preexisting health conditions. We looked healthy, and we felt healthy. We exercised regularly and consumed organic vegetables (and wine). And yet, we both got cancer before the age of 40. I wish that our story was somehow unique, but lately it seems like more and more young people are facing a similar prognosis.
A 2024 study published by the American Cancer Society showed a dismal prediction: 2024 will be the first year the United States can expect more than two million cases of cancer. That’s nearly 5,500 new diagnoses a day. Another study showed that more young people are getting diagnosed with cancer at an earlier age, particularly women and adults in their 30s. While the risk of dying from cancer has steadily declined, early-onset cancer
diagnoses are on the rise due in part to better screening recommendations and increased awareness of risk factors.
In the days following my cancer diagnosis, while I waited to learn how far the disease had spread, it felt like time came to a sudden halt and all my priorities lined up like the leaning Tower of Pisa. At the foundation of the tower was my family. At the time, my son, Max, was 3 years old, and Freddie was a baby. I was grounded by my overwhelming love for them. I’d lie on the floor of their shared bedroom, long after they fell asleep, and listen to the sound of their breathing. In those dark moments, when I allowed myself to think about what it would be like to leave this world, to leave the two of them, it felt like my tower might topple over.
Early in my treatment, my husband Alex and I made a decision not to tell our children that I had cancer. We agreed that they were too young to understand what it meant. While I recovered from my surgeries, we explained that Mommy needed to stay in bed because she was “hurt.” They sort of got it. “Don’t jump on Mommy! Be careful with Mommy!” Alex yelled repeatedly, terrified they might open a stitch. Back then, my scars were visible and raw— I knew what needed tending to. Eventually, my mastectomy scars healed and life moved on all around me. During my treatment, I’d been so focused on getting my life “back to normal.” I just wanted to feel like a regular healthy person who wasn’t a cancer patient. A person who could feel present, for a moment, without worry that some errant cell was multiplying and forming a new malignancy while I rang up chicken nuggets at the grocery store or drove my kids to school. I’d taken to following other cancer survivors on Instagram who all seemed so happy and together, even the ones who went through chemo and radiation. They’d pop
up on my feed, as they touted their green smoothies and organic supplements. Even though I was also drinking green juice and taking vitamins, I wasn’t smiling. I was feeling lost and alone, on autopilot, as if an alien force was operating my body from another galaxy.
I tried to recall the days post-diagnosis when my priorities had lined up so perfectly, but I no longer felt that sense of groundedness. Not in my career as a counselor, not in my marriage and not even in my role as a mother. Survivorship had knocked me down and left me standing in the pieces of my old life.
Sara and I often discuss our pre-cancer vs post-cancer selves. Pre-cancer, I rarely went to the doctor. But in the years following my diagnosis, I assumed every physical ailment was dire and that a recurrence was imminent. I walked through the world anxious and afraid. I constantly scanned my body, waiting to discover the next abnormality. Over time, I’ve learned to accept that these feelings might always be with me. As much as we try to control the unknown—we can’t. Cancer taught me that life is unpredictable but infinitely better with your best friend by your side. Sara and I have always said: The silver lining of getting cancer was getting it together.
Over the years, I’ve surrendered to the idea that healing doesn’t happen on a timeline. I guess that’s the thing about survivorship no one tells you. You don’t just process one life experience and feel better. You have to get rid of the stuff you’ve been holding onto forever. It’s radical. It’s total. It’s how we move forward.

TRADITIOOOOOOON! TRADITION!
With images of the recently concluded International Folk Art Market still dancing in our heads, we figure the town has the wherewithal to make this weekend’s Traditional Spanish Market a rousing success, too. The oldest and largest show of its kind in the country celebrates its 98th birthday in 2024, and is slated to feature tons of known and new artists, including Felipe Rivera, Arlene Sena Cisneros, Debbie Carrillo, Yvonne Aragon and far too many more to print here. Think devotional works, santeros, tin pieces, woodworking, retablos, jewelry, textiles and just about anything else, then head to the Plaza to see, enjoy and purchase.
(Alex De Vore)
98th Traditional Spanish Market:
8 am-5 pm Friday, July 26-Sunday, July 28. Free Santa Fe Plaza, 63 Lincoln Ave. traditionalspanishmarket.org
YOU’RE NOT IMAGINING THIS
Perhaps you’re more familiar with The Halluci Nation’s previous name, a Tribe Called Red; the inimitable Indigenous Canadian hip-hop act changed their handle in 2021 as an homage to the poet John Trudell. They kept their sound. That badass combination of sick beats, traditional Indigenous vocals and drumming, reggae and electro-pop/dubstep has served them well, leading to high-profile collabs with the likes of Yasiin Bey (FKA Mos Def); a most excellent performance via Seattle radio station KEXP in 2022; numerous Juno Awards (kind of like Canada’s Grammys); and, this week, a return trip to Santa Fe and The Bridge @Santa Fe Brewing Co. (ADV)
The Halluci Nation: 6:30 pm Saturday, July 27. $25
The Bridge @Santa Fe Brewing Co., (505) 557-6182
INDIE EXCELLENCE
Old-school Santa Fe music dorks will surely remember the years when a lesser-known DeVotchKa would roll through our teen arts centers and DIY spaces. Of course, in the years that followed, the Denver-based Eastern European-inspired, self-described indie-goth/ Gypsy-punk act became one of the more sought-after in the country, and it got a little tougher to catch shows—until now. DeVotchKa hits the Santa Fe Plaza this week totally gratis as part of the Summer Scene series from nonprofit Lensic360. This one’s for everybody, from the dancers and scenesters to the tranks, zipheads and lobos. (ADV)
Summer Scene on the Santa Fe Bandstand: DeVotchKa: 6 pm Tuesday, July 30. Free Santa Fe Plaza, 63 Lincoln Ave., lensic360.org

Clear Your Mind
Hyunmee Lee unveils new show at Nüart Gallery
Born and raised in Seoul, South Korea, Santa Fe-based abstract and calligraphic painter Hyunmee Lee takes a meditative approach to Western modern art and Eastern calligraphy in her upcoming exhibit The Flow of Calligraphic Contrasts “Drawing inspiration from my cultural heritage and spiritual growth, I hope for viewers to recognize the balance and imbalance of life reflected in my art,” Lee tells SFR.
Lee came up in a home that followed Confucian and Buddhist principles. Her father often traveled to Europe for business, and would return with thoughtprovoking pieces of art. These sparked a sense of wonder in Lee starting at a young age and inspired her to pursue art herself. Later, she received her BFA from Hong-Ik University in Seoul. By the mid1980s, Lee’s artistic journey had led her to Australia, where she received her MFA from the University of Sydney. In 1989, she took part in her first-ever exhibit in a commercial gallery.
In 1997, Lee immigrated to the United States and taught at Utah Valley University while still showing her own work at spaces like the Utah Museum of Fine Arts and the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art. By 2006, she had be-
gun regularly showing work in Santa Fe’s Nüart Gallery. In 2009, Lee retired from teaching to focus on art full time and, in 2016, she was pulled to live in Santa Fe as if, she says, it was “meant to be.” Cut to this week and Lee’s new show—an exploration of colorful abstractions and calligraphic ephemera mixed with text in Hangul (the South Korean alphabet) and a meditative process that embraces a clear mind while surrendering to the flow of the brush.
Lee says her self-exploration over the span of decades and continents allows her to dive into the world of abstract art through a deep understanding of the fundamental elements of human nature.
“My recent pieces delve more into the concept of ‘empty mind,’ similar to the process of meditation; exploring surface contrasts and abstract dimensions of both opposition and harmony through a blend of mixed-media and acrylic,” she explains.

Santa Fe Beer & Food Festival
with School for Advanced Research President Morris W Foster
With a history dating back to 1907, the School for Advanced Research’s mission to engage both academics and everyday community members, while fostering a deeper understanding of humanity through arts and anthropology, is a lofty but noble one. It’s also serious business, what with all the scholarly research, Indigenous artist residencies (shout-out to beadwork master Hollis Chitto; Mississippi Choctaw/Laguna and Isleta Pueblos) and public programming. Earlier this month, SAR appointed a new president, Morris W Foster, who succeeded Michael F Brown, who held the role for a decade. Among his myriad qualifications, Foster holds a doctoral degree in anthropology from Yale University; is an emeritus faculty member at the University of Oklahoma; and author of the book Being Comanche: A Social History of an American Indian Community (1992, University of Arizona Press), winner of the the American Society for Ethnohistory’s Erminie Wheeler-Voegelin Prize for Best Book in Ethnohistory. This interview has been edited for clarity and concision. (Alex De Vore)
You have a PhD from Yale, which I assume means you can do pretty much whatever you want. What makes SAR the right place for you?
Well, the School for Advanced Research has a long history in anthropology as sort of the preeminent think tank for anthropologists. It’s over 100 years old, it’s in a really beautiful setting in Santa Fe—which is itself a beautiful setting—and it’s a very unique institution in anthropology, the arts and the humanities as well. There is actually no other independent research center that combines the arts, the humanities and the social sciences. You find some for solely humanities, for arts, for the social sciences, but SAR is the only one that brings those three disciplinary perspectives together. Previously, I was at Old Dominion University in Virginia, and before that, the University of Oklahoma for 27 years. My dissertation research was with the Comanche, and they range all the way from New
Mexico and into Oklahoma and Kansas… there’s a strong scholarly connection for me to Santa Fe and the Southwest.
Will you have a hand in SAR’s future programming and, if so, do you already have some idea of what you’d like to see happen?
SAR has had a strong public programming presence in Santa Fe. We do public lectures, we’ve sponsored documentary films, we do various kinds of arts events, we’ve had music events on campus and events around food. [Director of Public Programs and Communications] Mary G Madigan is working with us to develop a fall package, a summer package, a spring package of public programming that people can look forward to each year. We think SAR is already an important part of the cultural part of Santa Fe, but we’d like to do more.
In a city with so many cultural institutions vying for attention, what does SAR bring to the table?
We have historians and anthropologists who give talks about their work. As I said, we sponsor documentaries that touch on cultural themes, Southwestern themes, global and cultural themes; and we also have one of the strongest collections of Southwestern art in the country, and that’s an important part. We’re not a museum, we’re a research collection, but we do have regular tours the public can sign up for and see the collection. We were just part of an exhibit that went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York called Grounded in Clay—that started in Santa Fe, went to New York and is moving in October to Houston. There are the two parts of SAR: It’s local, it’s Santa Fean, it’s New Mexican, and the other part is its national and international reputation.
During the pandemic, SAR took a lot of its programming online, and that was really the first time we’d done that, and we’ve continued to do that since the pandemic. So you have the opportunity to attend an event in Santa Fe, or to view the lecture streaming. Those are archived on YouTube—with free access, and we have hundreds of videos. And these talks are not esoteric talks, they’re aimed at a public audience who may not have an academic background or anthropology background, but an interest in history, an interest in Indigenous arts. SAR has, for 50 years, hosted visiting fellows in what we call ‘advanced seminars,’ which bring faculty members from around the world to Santa Fe either for a nine-month residence, or for a weeklong advanced seminar on focused topics. Those focused topics are by design interdisciplinary topics, and we’ve published many edited volumes that have really changed the field of anthropology and other fields in their impact.

The Meat-Free BODY
BODY Café adds enticing vegan options to Santa Fe’s culinary scene
BY ALEX DE VORE
alex@sfreporter.com
Ages ago, when spa/yoga center/boutique BODY of Santa Fe (333 Cordova Road, (505) 986-0362) took up most of its building on Cordova Road, the business boasted a rather popular and healthful café that was often packed with diners.
In the years that followed, BODY scaled back, celebrated French bakery and café Clafoutis took over roughly half the space (it’s great, btw, try the croissant breakfast sandwich) and BODY owner Lori Parrish attempted several times to kickstart various food offerings at her wellness mecca.
None of these efforts proved quite as popular as the short-lived vegetarian Moroccan café Tajine, which operated for several months last year but ultimately closed when its proprietors failed to obtain a business license. But now that Parrish has teamed up with La Lecheria ice cream shop founder and longtime chef Joel Coleman (formerly of defunct restaurants like Fire & Hops and Mu Du Noodles) for the 100% plant-based BODY Café, Santa Fe finally has another option for those who eschew meat.
Coleman and Parrish announced their partnership in December, with Parrish promising the restaurant would focus on a small menu dedicated to local ingredients. Coleman, meanwhile, said he missed cooking after selling his stake in Fire & Hops in 2022. “It’s not like I gave up being a chef,” he told
SFR at the time, “I just needed the break.”
After sampling a number of dishes from BODY Café alongside a stalwart dining companion, it would seem the break did Coleman some good—whether you’re a militant vegan, dedicated vegetarian or even a devout meat-eater, there’s plen ty to like, with at least one dish hitting downright excellence.
First off, the options are a tad more robust than Parrish originally let on. The menu at BODY Café is fairly varied and broken up into categories like salads; noodles & grains; small dishes; and baked goods. The restaurant also serves chocolates and truffles from Kakawa Chocolate House, plus numerous fair trade teas and coffees, in cluding a classic chai; a golden milk elixir with turmeric, oat milk and maple syrup; matcha; the baseline Kakawa Chocolate House elixir and Joe’ys Adaptogen Roast, the last of which being one of those mushroom coffee-esque drinks you might have seen advertised on social media.
The trend here is that BODY Café aims for options that are healthier than those at your average eatery, while making vegan dishes that aren’t boring or unimaginative. Coleman’s food mostly backs up the concept.
We began with balsamic-marinated beets and a melange of pickled seasonal veggies ($6 each). Though the pickled veggie dish was tasty and familiar to us as an offering similar to one Coleman served at Fire & Hops, the briney cauliflower, celery, onion and cucumber paled in comparison to the balsamic beets. The immediate tangy zip of the balsamic accentuated the sweet but earthy beet flavor so well, I’m surprised I haven’t seen the dish elsewhere
cold with seasonal vegetables and greens ($20, plus $4 for added meat alternative tempeh), while I immediately zeroed in on the udon noodle bowl ($19, plus $4 for tofu). At the suggestion of our cashier/cook/server, the udon came hot (though the café will serve it cold or even gluten-free if that’s your deal), and, when offered an array of spiciness options, I went with the lowest tier.
Even with the mild description attached, BODY Café’s udon bowl packs a welcome punch. Served hot, it was also a steamy delight of smells and colors crammed with thick udon noodles served atop roasted bell peppers, carrots and an invigorating soyginger sauce for a noticeable but not overpowering sweet and almost flowery note. The
bowl also came with a generous serving of tofu that was clearly prepared with an eye toward replacing meat. Many restaurants don’t bother to press the moisture from their tofu before cooking it—BODY Café doesn’t have that problem. Instead, the firmer texture gave the dish some welcome chewiness. The soba noodle salad was semidisappointing by comparison. Now, my companion insisted they suffer food envy in most dining situations, but the cold, thin soba noodles couldn’t compete with the warm and thick udon.
We closed the meal with a chocolate-almond matcha tort ($12), a visually pleasing and not over-sweet option composed of two layers that might each work better on their own. For fans of bitter chocolate or a thickness that surpasses even the thickest mousse, this tort would be a home run, but its density defeated us, forcing us to leave a healthy bit behind. Even so, there are other sweets options and BODY Café even has a part-time pastry chef who, we were told,
Ultimately, BODY Café feels like a winner, but could be more of a take-out situation. Had the dining room been bustling with life, perhaps I’d have felt differently, but it almost felt like we were trespassers. The café’s daily operating hours are also limited to 8:30 am6:30 pm, when most folks are either heading to work or not far enough into their postwork evening to dine. I won’t turn my nose up at taking it home some night, though.
The udon bowl at BODY Café is a winner. ALEXDE
Coming up Roses
Santa Fe Opera’s Der Rosenkavalier captures the unbearable lightness of Strauss’ masterpiece
BY JULIA GOLDBERG juliagoldberg@sfreporter.com
Der Rosenkavalier opens in the Marschallin’s bedroom. She— Princess von Werdenberg—has just spent the night with her 17-yearold lover Octavian, Count Rofrano. The Marschallin’s cousin Baron Ochs auf Lerchenau arrives to find out whom the princess recommends as “Knight of the Rose” (Rosenkavalier) to deliver the ceremonial silver rose to Sophie, whom he plans to marry. To avoid detection, Octavian has dressed up as a maid. To stir the pot further, the Marschallin suggests Baron Ochs use Octavian for the task.
Assignations, mistaken identities, covert ops and even a few site gags ensue. But make no mistake, while Richard Strauss’ 1911 opera brims with lightness and humor, those qualities balance with sorrow and yearning.
The Santa Fe Opera’s production of Der Rosenkavalier—its sixth one, but its first in 32 years—runs four hours and change with two intermissions, including a 35-minute one after Act 2, during which crew members construct the set for the third and final act.
I loved every minute.
I plan to attend again, assuming the limited run hasn’t sold out by the time I finish writing this (tickets for most of the remaining shows were limited as of press time; catch the opening night performance at 6 pm, Aug. 19 on 95.5 FM KHFM or online at khfm.org).
Soprano Rachel Willis-Sørensen fully embodies in performance and voice the Marschallin as conceived by Strauss, who wrote in one of his many letters to librettist and poet/playwright Hugo von Hofmannsthal the character should be “a young and beautiful woman not more than 32, who, when she is in a bad mood, occasionally feels herself [an] ‘old woman’ by comparison with…Octavian.” He is not her first or last lover, Strauss notes, and when she sends him off at the end of Act 1, knowing he will fall for Sophie, she should do so not “as a tragic farewell to life, but all the
time with Viennese grace and lightness, one eye wet and other dry.” (Be sure to read James M Keller’s excellent essay on the opera and Strauss and Hofmannsthal’s correspondence in this year’s opera program).
In an interview with KHFM, WillisSørensen talks about her experience singing in some of Strauss’ more so-called “serious” operas and responds to the idea that Der Rosenkavalier’s popular appeal stems from its “bubbly” music (spoiler alert: There will be waltzes). While the opera’s fun is undeniable, her character is “super serious…she has moments of humor, but I think the character generally is incredibly pensive, philosophical,” WillisSørensen says. And fundamentally, she continues, Der Rosenkavalier “is Strauss’s most successful opera probably because of its charm, but the depth of human experience that it portrays is also maybe unparalleled… it’s sort of coming at tragedy from a nondeath perspective, just sort of the tragedy, the difficulty of life, of living and continuing to live in spite of challenge and misery.”
In a nutshell, Octavian (mezzo soprano Paula Murrihy) and Sophie (most performances by soprano Yin Fang; Liv Redpath will perform the role on Aug. 15) fall in love, but must thwart the lecherous and menacing Baron Ochs (bass Matthew Rose). This partially involves Octavian’s ongoing impersonation as the maid Mariandel, a farce filled with double-meaning as Octavian itself is what’s known as a “trouser” role, a male part designated for a female per-
former, such as Cherubino in Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro (the Aria Code podcast’s 2021 episode “Once More Into the Breeches” is a great listen for more on this topic). Murrihy sings beautifully in this production, but she also brings the necessary acting chops and high energy to this role. She and Fang together, and with Willis-Sørensen in the devastatingly beautiful final Act 3 trio, are the heart of this emotional story of navigating love and time. At the risk of naming every singer in a large cast, suffice it to say all were larger than life. Rose’s voice has a resonant deep tone, and, along with his comic timing (the site gag captured in one of the photographs accompanying this story is quite funny) stole the show on many occasions. Tenor Gerhard Siegel as Valzacchi and mezzo-soprano Megan Marino as Annina, who perpetrate some of the opera’s B-plot ma-
neuvers, along with tenor David Portillo as the Italian singer, also wowed.
For all that, the show—a co-production with Garsington Opera and Irish National Opera—also is an orchestral and visual feast, with each of the three acts delivering a distinct aesthetic. Director Bruno Ravella has reset the opera from Vienna in the 1740s to the 1950s. Just as the opera itself has a sense of musical pastiche— beautifully conveyed by conductor Karina Canellakis—so does this production’s visual elements, ranging from the Rococo flourishes of the Marschallin’s bedroom, with its crisp linens and her silky nightclothes, to the pink crinoline skirts Sophie dons (I lack sufficient fashion vernacular to describe Baron Och’s outfits).
In an interview with Ravella in the opera catalog, writer Michael Clive notes the director’s “special attention” to Der Rosenkavalier’s “preoccupation with time.” I would note Lighting Designer Malcolm Rippeth’s genius contributions in this realm throughout, particularly in the opera’s final, transcendent moments.
In a video interview, Scenic and Costume Designer Gary McCann says in Der Rosenkavalier he’s “completely tried to create something that’s really beautiful, and I’m not apologizing for that.”
He—and everyone in this production—has succeeded. And no apologies necessary.

Swan Song Review
McMullan captures dancers’ grace under pressure
BY JAMES REICH AUTHOR@sfreporter.com
Filmmaker Chelsea McMullan’s (Ever Deadly) beautifully filmed Swan Song captures the agonies and evolution of the final work of legendary dancer Karen Kain’s 50-year ballet career, her daring 2022 production of Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake for the National Ballet of Canada. Kain, who made her reputation in the 1970s performing with Rudolf Nureyev, not only experiments with a feminist reading of Swan Lake, but wrestles also with classical ballet’s historical erasures of ethnicity.
Swan Song presents three primary perspectives: Kain’s and those of principal dancer Jurgita Dronina and troubled corp de ballet member Shaelyn Estrada. Here are three generations of women in ballet, risking their own catastrophes: reputational, physical and psychological.
As archetypal as Tchaikovsky’s ballet is, McMullan’s film finds analogous framing in her portraits of Dronina and Estrada, with Estrada
+ CREEPY AMBIANCE; NIC CAGE IS FUN EVEN WHEN HE’S NOT - HUGE PLOT HOLES; LAZY WRITING
With his new horror film Longlegs, writer-director Oz Perkins, son of Psycho’s Anthony Perkins, has constructed a sufficiently atmospheric thriller with a low-simmering unease that oozes throughout.
Just ask the highly successful viral marketing campaign featuring creepily cryptic trailers, cipher-laden billboards, a phone number to call and listen to ominous messages and a ‘90s-style website dubbed The Birthday Murders. In the end, a film poster appeared, exalting Longlegs as “the scariest movie of the decade.” That’s a bold claim.
In the film, It Follows actress Maika Monroe stars as Lee Harker, a possibly psychic FBI agent tasked by her commanding officer (Blair Underwood) with solving a string of grisly family murders. As Harker unravels the seemingly implausible killings through a series of Zodiac-esque ciphers found in letters left at crime scenes, she gradually grasps her own connection to the decades-spanning horrors.
Nicolas Cage contributes an overtly gonzo performance as the titular Longlegs, a serial killer with a love for ’70s-era glam rock who employs an unconventional method of carnage. Obscured in various ways for the better part of the film, Cage’s appearance is both unsettling and strangely comical once revealed. Longlegs’ pasty white face is a direct homage to Marc Bolan’s T. Rex stage makeup and Lou Reed’s Transformer cover art, which surreptitiously crops up in a few scenes. At times, Cage dials up disturbing moments while attempting to channel his inner Tiny Tim (the “Tiptoe Through the Tulips” musician; not the Dickens character). But no matter
as shadow. Dronina recounts her narrow escape from the ashes of communism, where Estrada makes bracelets for herself which read “Marxist,” “Socialist,” “Libertarian” and “Slut.” The two are linked early in the film by a shot of a book Estrada is reading: Cynthia Cruz’s The Melancholia of Class. Each is engaged in her own private struggle, and each keeps a secret that may undo her career.
This is an intimate, visceral film tightly focused on the physical intensities and breathtaking endurance of the performers. It is a film of individuals and relationships caught in a crucible of almost unbearable attention. And yet, they must endure. Bringing bodies to their limits for art, choreographer Robert Binet
BONUS FEATURES
how accomplished his performance might be, or how obfuscating his prosthetics, one never fully looks past Nic Cage being, well, Nic Cage.
Longlegs’ greatest strengths lie in its disquieting score and cinematography. Its bewitchingly shot compositions and stylistic choices draw you in and add up to an anxious ambiance. Long shots of liminal space and aspect ratio changes deliver the claustrophobic feeling of being boxed in with the killer, yet, ultimately, Perkins chooses style over substance, and he’s a far better director than he is a writer. The frequent plot holes and leaps of logic leave a muddled mess for anyone paying close attention; the many reviews comparing this film to The Silence of the Lambs and Se7en are somewhat embarrassing.
Perkins, in fact, relies too heavily on coincidentally aligned circumstances and conveniently timed contrivances for any self-respecting film-lover to ignore. Satan is merely a convenient scapegoat for the evils enacted by Perkins’ characters, and the sloppy script becomes unavoidably apparent as the film progresses, leaving the last act reveal feeling ham-fisted rather than the stuff that would make up the promised “scariest movie of the decade.” (Red Cell) Violet Crown Cinema, R, 101 min.
KEEP ON DANCIN’
Santa Fe has officially been chosen as one of six finalists to host the Sundance Film Festival. The Utahbased fest’s Sundance Institute announced earlier this year that it would likely move in 2027 from its longtime Park City home after more than 40 years, and our funny little burg seems as good a place as any to show them flicks. “Santa Fe and the Sundance Film Festival have long shared a deep appreciation for diversity, inclusion and artistic expression,” Santa Fe Mayor Alan Webber says in a statement.
poses a crucial question: “What’s worth it, and what’s too much?” As the fraught deadline of opening night looms, there is genuine suspense. At its best, Swan Song reminds one of the physicality, luminosity and darkness of Edgar Degas’ ballet paintings—Degas and Swan Lake are contemporaneous—and the cinematography directed by Tess Girard and Shady Hanna is stunning. Perhaps it underutilizes the scholarly critical voices it introduces, but Swan Song is gritty, passionate and transcendent.
SWAN SONG
Directed by Chelsea McMullan Center for Contemporary Arts, NR, 100 mins
“We believe that Santa Fe would provide a welcoming and inspiring platform for the stories and filmmakers that Sundance celebrates.” We likely won’t hear any official news for a few months, but certainly the other cities in the running—Atlanta, Boulder, Cincinnati, Louisville and Salt Lake City—couldn’t possibly hope to be as cool as us, right?
FINALLY!
After four seasons through which everyone pretty much agreed it was one of the best television shows in some time, Hulu/FX series Reservation Dogs is up for its first Emmys. These include outstanding picture editing for a single-camera comedy series; outstanding cinematography for a single-camera series; outstanding sound editing for a comedy or drama series; outstanding lead actor in a comedy series (D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai as Bear Smallhill); and outstanding comedy series. Numerous New Mexicans worked on the show across its run, including Santa Fe writer Blackhorse Lowe (Diné) and former SFR calendar editor Kerry Amanda Myers (Comanche). We’re proud.
CASTING CALL
Indie production company Flower Pictures is looking to cast its forthcoming short film Albert Camus’ Caligula. The logline describes a distraught Caligula (as in the emperor of the Roman empire from 37-41 AD) reeling from the death of his sister Drusilla and the subsequent three-day journey that shapes him into the monstrous jerk made famous from shows/ books like I, Claudius and that one adult film. With a little luck, director Ethan Zell can help audiences understand the guy who made his horse a senator. Last we checked, shooting dates are still TBD, but parties interested in playing the boy emperor can visit the nmfilm.com casting call page or email
FlowerPictures.Casting@gmail.com (they’re open to a variety of looks, builds, etc.). The pay clocks in at $150 per day, and the scene they’re trying to shoot— from Camus’ 1939 play script, mind you—features Caligula going mad.

If you’re already on the state’s Film New Mexico site checking out casting opportunities, click on over to the NMFO Spotlight page, a veritable cornucopia of interviews with notable New Mexico people working in the industry. Check out the interview with actor Ryan Begay (Diné) because he was honestly so good in the recent Apple TV+ movie Fancy Dance with Lily Gladstone (Blackfeet), and he’s been in shows like Breaking Bad and Dark Winds and should become super-famous already. Same goes for the interview with DezBaa’ (Diné), who plays Helen Atcitty on Dark Winds, plus lots of other cool film and television people.
IN THE RICK OF TIME
The Paramount+ streaming service is now showing the 2021 New Mexico-filmed Western Apache Junction starring Stuart Townsend (Queen of the Damned), Thomas Jane (Hung), Scout Taylor Compton (Model House) and Santa Fe’s Ricky Lee (née Ricky Lee Regan; Cree and Lakota). In short, Apache Junction dips its toe into the lawless yet dying days of the Wild West and the journalist who heads into the fray to check it out only to get wrapped up in old vendettas and gunfights and kidnappings and such. SFR’s 2021 review of the film praised its old-school Western aesthetic, but also longed for more screen time from Lee’s character—the only one in the movie with a bit of relatable humanity.
Rob Brezsny Week of July 24th
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Aries singer-songwriter Lady Gaga has written many songs, both for herself and other artists. She has famously declared that some of her most successful songs took her just 10 minutes to compose. They include “Just Dance,” “Poker Face,” and “Born This Way.” According to my interpretation of the astrological omens, you could be rising to Lady Gaga levels of creativity in your own sphere during the coming weeks. And I won’t be surprised if your imaginative innovations flow with expeditious clarity, like Gaga at her most efficient.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): During the winter, some animals hibernate. They enter a state of dormancy, slowing their metabolism, breathing, and heart rate. Other animals enter a similar state during the summer, conserving energy when the weather is hot and dry. It’s called estivation. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, many of you Tauruses would benefit from a modified version of estivation in the next couple of weeks. You’re in prime time to recharge your energy through deep relaxation and rest.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The English word “amphibian” is derived from the Greek term amphibios, which means “living a double life.” The original meaning of the English word was “combining two qualities; having two modes of life,” though eventually it came to be used primarily to describe animals that function well on both land and in water. You Geminis are of course the most amphibious of all the astrological tribes. You can feel at home in a variety of situations. This may sometimes stir up confusion, but I see it as one of your greatest potential strengths. In the coming weeks, I hope you enjoy it to the maximum. It should serve you well. Wield it to take advantage of the sweet perks of versatility.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): I dreamed that a young elephant appeared on the back deck of my house and stuck its trunk through the open sliding glass door. I got up from my chair and gently pushed the animal away, then closed the door. But after I woke up, I was sorry I had done that in my dream. What was I afraid of? The elephant posed no danger—and may have been a good omen. In some cultures, elephants in dreams and visions are symbols of good luck, vitality, long life, and the removal of obstacles. So here’s what I did. I dropped into a deep meditative state and reimagined the dream. This time, I welcomed the creature into my home. I gave her the name Beatrice. We wrestled playfully and had fun playing with a red rubber ball. Amazingly, later that day, a certain obstacle in my actual waking life magically disappeared. The moral of the story, my fellow Cancerian: Welcome the elephant.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Some bamboo species grow very quickly—as much as 36 inches per day. I suspect your capacity to burgeon and blossom will display a similar vigor in the coming weeks. You may be surprised at how dramatic your development is. I’m hoping, of course, that you will be acutely focused on channeling your fertility in positive ways. Don’t feed an urge to recklessly gamble, for instance. Don’t pursue connections with influences that are no damn good for you. Instead, decide right now what areas of your life you want to be the beneficiaries of your growth spurt. Choose the beauty and power you will encourage to ripen.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): For months, we heard and saw crows pecking on the roof of our rental house. Why? Were they grubbing for food? It was mildly annoying, but seemingly no big deal. Then one night, their small, regular acts of mayhem climaxed in an unexpected event. Rain began to fall around 8 pm. It was constant, though not heavy. At 9, the ceilings in five rooms began to leak. By 10:30, our house was flooded. We managed to rescue most of our precious items, but the house was damaged. We had to find a new place to live. I don’t expect anything nearly this drastic to befall you, dear Virgo. But I do encourage you to check to see
if any small problem is gradually growing bigger. Now is a favorable time to intervene and forestall an unfavorable development.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Two Scottish veterinarians researched the health of rhesus monkeys that are compelled by human handlers to dance on the streets of Islamabad, Pakistan. When I first learned about this, my response was, “Wow! Don’t those doctors have anything better to do? That is the most obscure research I have ever heard of.” But later, I decided I admired the doctors because they were motivated primarily by compassion. They found the monkeys were under severe stress, and they publicized the fact as a public service. Their work will ultimately lead to better treatment of the monkeys. In accordance with astrological omens, Libra, I advise you to seek out comparable ways to express altruism in the coming weeks. By engaging in noble and idealistic acts, you will attract good fortune into your sphere both for yourself and others.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Do you place any limits on how deep and expansive you allow your yearnings to be? Are you ever worried that maybe you desire too much and are at risk of asking for too much? If you answered yes to those questions, Scorpio, I will give you a temporary license to rebel against your wariness. In accordance with astrological rhythms, I authorize you to experiment with feeling the biggest, strongest, wildest longings you have ever felt. Please note that I am not advising you to immediately go out and actually express those longings to the hilt. For now, I’d like you to simply have the experience of entertaining their full intensity. This will be a healing experience.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You will never guess the identity of the strongest animal on the planet. It’s not the gorilla, tiger, or elephant. It’s the dung beetle, which can lug loads that weigh 1,141 times as much as it does. The equivalent for you would be to pull six double-decker buses crammed with people. I’m happy to inform you that although you won’t be able to accomplish that feat in the coming weeks, your emotional and spiritual strength will be formidable. You may be surprised at how robust and mighty you are. What do you plan to do with all that power?
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): By age 35, you have already shed over 50 pounds of skin. The flesh that covers you is in a constant state of renewal. In the coming weeks, I expect your rate of regeneration to be even higher than usual—not only in regard to your skin, but everything else in your life, as well. Here’s a proviso: Renewal and regeneration are always preceded by withering or dwindling. To enjoy the thrill of revitalization, you must allow the loss of what was once vital but is no longer.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Among people who go hiking a lot, “death march” is a term that refers to a long trudge through boring scenery in bad weather. Let’s use this as a metaphor for your life. I believe you have recently finished your own metaphorical version of a “death march.” Any minute now, you will begin a far more enjoyable series of experiences. Get ready for an entertaining meander through interesting terrains in fine weather. Be alert for unpredictable encounters with inspiration and education.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Alex Larenty gives massages to lions at the Lion Park near Johannesburg, South Africa. They especially love foot rubs. Even Jamu, king of the local beasts, rolls onto his back so Larenty can get a good angle while caressing and kneading his paws. I bring this to your attention, Pisces, because it’s a good metaphor for the unique power you will have in the coming days: a knack for dealing successfully with wild influences and elemental powers through the magic of kindness, affection, and service.
