35 ANNUAL TH

BEST OF VENTURA COUNTY!

ur biggest and most impressive issue is back for 2020, featuring the top three vote getters in 150 categories, compiled from our readers’ poll. It includes the best in local people, places and things — the shops, restaurants, businesses and more that have made living in Ventura County better, easier and more enjoyable. This year has been unlike any other in our 35 year history. A pandemic, shutdowns, distance learning . . . Ventura County joined the entire world in experiencing a temporary halt of many of the things that make up everyday living. But we are a resilient community, and we continue to thrive. Local businesses adjusted to the new normal. Restaurants offered takeout deals and expanded online ordering. Fitness studios and instructors harnessed the power of the Internet to get us moving at home — and later got out of the gym and into the parks and beaches to keep us motivated. Stores of all kinds started bringing their wares to us curbside, and rearranged their environments to make it safe to shop inside. Changes big and small took place across the spectrum to give clients and customers what they needed, as safely as possible. So this year, our Best Of issue is more than just a reliable guide to the area’s top service providers. It’s a salute to a community that has been unwavering in its commitment to keeping us fed, clothed, educated, entertained, supported and healthy — despite tremendous obstacles. Congratulations to our 2020 Best of Ventura County winners, and thank you to all who participated! We couldn’t have done it without you. Here’s to better days ahead!

8 SALZER’S, BEST RECORD STORE, BEST GIFT SHOP, BEST ADULT STORE AND BEST SMOKE SHOP The name belies what this Ventura institution has to offer, but the votes will clue you in. Best Record Store, Best Gift Shop, Best Adult Store and Best Smoke Shop. That’s a lot of bests . . . but not surprising. The store opened in 1972 by renowned concert promoter Jim Salzer (who passed away in March at 78) looks like a rock and roll museum . . . and it some ways it is. Beyond the vintage music memorabilia on the walls and shelves, however, it boasts an enviable collection of new and used vinyl and CDs, videos and DVDs (including the NSFW kind), gifts that range from charming to cheeky, clothing and anything you might need for smoking and toking. Wife Nancy and son Brandon along with their staff continue to keep the everlasting flame of Salzer’s legacy burning, and despite a rough year, that light shines brighter than ever.

DINI LEOPOLDO AT MORUMBI JIU JITSU/DINI KETTLEBELL Dini Leopoldo was voted Best Personal Trainer this year -- the first for the head fitness instructor at Morumbi Jiu Jitsu. A specialist in Russian kettlebells as well as TRx and body weight training, customers have counted on her to help them reach their fitness goals with expert advice, enthusiastic encouragement and solid support. Morumbi also claimed the Best Martial Arts Studio and Best Martial Arts Instructor (for founder Fabio Leopoldo) titles. Dini’s win makes the Ventura-based studio a triple threat in 2020.

VENTURA MAKOS, BEST SURF SCHOOL With a team of expert surfers, a tried-and-true program and an aloha spirit, this beloved institution has helped even the most inexperienced landlubbers hang 10. But surf classes (for all ages!) are just one of the many services Ventura Makos offers. Surf teams, surf camps, surf therapy and specialized offerings for corporate and group events enable anyone and everyone to get wet and appreciate the unique communion with nature that surfing can provide.

52 ALOHA DOG GROOMING, BEST PET GROOMER When things get ruff, Aloha nips it in the bud. The Midtown Ventura dog grooming business keeps pooches pretty and pampered in every way possible, thanks to the loving care of owner Tina Baselice and her crew. Customers praise this Best Of winner for her expert touch, sensitivity, experience and a genuine love for animals — all of which have helped her earn the trust of even the finickiest customers at the shop. No matter the age, breed or temperament, Aloha makes sure all dogs get clipped, trimmed, shampooed and shaved with style.

64 VENTIKI LOUNGE AND LANAI, BEST CRAFT COCKTAILS Walking into VenTiki, you could be forgiven for thinking that you’ve stepped into a Shag painting. But there’s more to Ventura’s famed tiki bar than its remarkable midcentury looks. The drinks are strong, but inventive and beautifully balanced; the servers are friendly, efficient and knowledgeable; and the list of premium rums would put Trader Vic’s himself to shame. This is no mere vintage bar, but a reverent homage to tiki culture par excellence.

CONCERTS IN YOUR CAR, BEST DRIVE-IN EVENT There was a time when the drive-in was a relic of a simpler, less advanced time — enjoyable for its old-fashioned charm and (for those of us old enough to remember) perhaps a bit of nostalgia. Thanks to a certain virus, something old feels new again. Vincenzo Giammanco of CBF Productions was one of the first to see the potential of outdoor concerts as alternatives to indoor entertainment venues that have been shuttered since March. For his Concerts in Your Car series, he built a massive, state-of-the-art stage at the Ventura County Fairgrounds, added enormous screens and made it possible for attendees to tune in from their FM radios to enjoy the show away from the madding crowds and in the comfort of their individual vehicles. It’s not your mother’s drive-in, to be sure . . . but it’s a winning idea in this modern age.

BEST PLACE FOR ETHICAL UNDIES Ojai Lingerie 805-619-9444, www.ojailingerie.com

or many women, shopping for lingerie can involve more misses than hits. But this shop, opened in 2019 by Malory Taylor, began with a body-positive creed that aimed to change that. I was also drawn to the eco-conscious focus and, prior to the pandemic, planned to check out the store. A girl can always use a new bra or two. Then COVID-19 hit. And the lockdown. And the pandemic stayed. Online shopping and curbside delivery became the norm, and now I really needed some new skivvies and bras. I was scrolling the megastores online and then remembered Ojai Lingerie.

line of bamboo-sourced basic bras and boy-short style underwear — exactly what I was looking for — at a price point that was comparable to the mega online stores. I would much rather support a locally owned business in my community. I ordered underwear and a bra to check the size and fit and was thrilled when a small, brown paper bag with a thank you note was delivered to my front porch in a few hours. Match that Amazon! (Hand delivery available now in Ojai. Free shipping for orders over $75). I loved them so much, I ordered several more of each in different colors.

cotton and fun bralettes made from vintage lace. Several are made in the USA, and those made overseas are ethically sourced and manufactured. This month, the luxurious Jooley Robe, available through Ojai Lingerie and made in San Francisco, was featured in Oprah’s Favorite Things for 2020. As the weather cools, this makes a great and cozy piece for lounging on the weekend or the workfrom-home look. If we’re spending more time inside, there’s really no excuse to not look and feel fabulous from your undergarments out, especially if you can shop from home and support local business.

he pandemic got you down? Get a goat. Goat yoga, that is.

Yes, goat yoga is a thing. It may have started when milking goats got boring, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taken on a following because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun and the goats donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t judge you for wearing last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s yoga pants or if your warrior pose is a little wobbly. So get outside and enjoy the cuteness and climbing ability of miniature goats at The CABRA Farmhouse.

Ruby Kevala, DC, DACNB

Board Certified Chiropractic Neurologist

The goats at CABRA donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just observe yogis. They also give milk for beautiful bars of soap and a complete line of skin care products handmade by Alexia Serrano. As the holidays approach, look for specially scented soaps. Past year favorites include mistletoe, AD PROOF with hints of peony, bergamot and honeysuckle.

No joke â&#x20AC;&#x201D; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun. The CABRA Farmhouse offers goat yoga classes outdoors.

BEST SUPPORT FOR HOMELESS CHILDREN Step Up Ventura Nonprofit Organization 1338 E. Santa Clara St., Ventura info@stepupventura.org 805-665-3385 www.stepupventura.org

t’s tough to look at any community issue today without seeing it through a lens shaded by the pandemic experience. Homelessness is unimaginable for many, but when we consider the children in our community who don’t have a home, it is unfathomable.

well as places many of us would consider uninhabitable, and on the street. The experience of homelessness impacts young children in unique ways, including high rates of mental illness associated with emotional stress. This can result in these children being unprepared for school, which can lead to behavioral problems and contribute to the perpetuation of the cycle of homelesness and poverty.

Step Up Ventura offers programs at two locations to build literacy skills and improve vocabulary. An important focus of this program is to ensure school readiness by developing creativity and social, emotional and behavioral skills that are age and developmentally appropriate. Through Dec. 15, Step Up Ventura’s Art and Gift Virtual Fair offers unique items made by local artists to support the nonprofit’s work, which has become even more vital in the shadow of the pandemic

VENTIKI LOUNGE AND LANAI, BEST CRAFT COCKTAILS Walking into VenTiki, you could be forgiven for thinking that you’ve stepped into a Shag painting. But there’s more to Ventura’s famed tiki bar than its remarkable midcentury looks. The drinks are strong, but inventive and beautifully balanced; the servers are friendly, efficient and knowledgeable; and the list of premium rums would put Trader Vic himself to shame. This is no mere vintage bar, but a reverent homage to tiki culture par excellence.

Rocks and Drams 14 S. California St., Ventura 805-667-8585 www.rocksanddrams.com

ewly opened this summer in Downtown Ventura, Rocks and Drams offers wine, beer and low-alcohol craft cocktails that should appeal to Ventura County drinkers looking for a quality quaff that won’t put them under the table. While visitors will have to wait until a later time (and possibly a vaccine) to truly appreciate the stylish interior, Rocks and Drams’ outdoor seating on California Street just off Main enables the curious to imbibe in comfort and safety.

For something more straightforward, there are plenty of interesting beers (MadeWest, Topa Topa, Ventura Coast Brewing Company — just to name a few of the local ones) and wines (Manchese, Rabble Red and Bonfate) to consider as well. If you’re craving a snack, order tacos, sushi rolls, ceviche and other light bites.

and Drams offers a mobile bar — essentially a trailer that operates as a full bar on wheels — for rental. Even more cool, however, is the delightful AVA Tap Bike, with two taps for beer, wine or batch cocktails. Now that’s pedal power! — Nancy D. Lackey Shaffer

The establishment is open Thursday-Sunday; It’s best to make reservations for patio space.

Men’s Virility Restored in Clinical Trial; 275% More Blood Flow in 5 Minutes A newly improved version of America’s best-selling male performance enhancer gives 70-year-old men the ability and stamina they enjoyed in their 30’s. America’s best-selling sexual performance enhancer just got a lot better. It’s the latest breakthrough for nitric oxide – the molecule that makes E.D. woes fade and restores virility when it counts the most. Nitric oxide won the Nobel Prize in 1998. It’s why “the little blue pill” works. More than 200,000 studies confirm it’s the key to superior sexual performance. And this new discovery increases nitric oxide availability resulting in even quicker, stronger and longer-lasting performance. One double-blind, placebo-controlled study (the “gold-standard” of research) involved a group of 70-year-old-men. They didn’t exercise. They didn’t eat healthy. And researchers reported their “nitric oxide availability was almost totally compromised,” resulting in blood flow less than HALF of a man in peak sexual health. But only five minutes after the first dose their blood flow increased 275%, back to levels of a perfectly healthy 31-year-old man! “It’s amazing,” remarks nitric oxide expert Dr. Al Sears. “That’s like giving 70-year-old men the sexual power of 30-year-olds.”

WHY SO MUCH EXCITEMENT? Despite the billions men spend annually on older nitric oxide therapies, there’s one wellknown problem with them. They don’t always work. A very distinguished and awarded doctor practicing at a prestigious Massachusetts hospital who has studied Nitric Oxide for over 43 years states a “deficiency of bioactive nitric oxide… leads to impaired endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation.” In plain English, these older products may increase levels of nitric oxide. But that’s only half the battle. If it’s not bioactively available then your body can’t absorb it to produce an erection. Experts simply call it the nitric oxide “glitch.” And until now, there’s never been a solution.

NEXT GENERATION NITRIC OXIDE FORMULA FLYING OFF SHELVES Upon further research, America’s No. 1 men’s health expert Dr. Al Sears discovered certain nutrients fix this “glitch” resulting in 275% better blood flow.

He’s combined those nutrients with proven nitric oxide boosters in a new formula called Primal Max Red. In clinical trials, 5,000 mg is required for satisfying sexual performance. Primal Max Red contains a bigger, 9,000 mg per serving dose. It’s become so popular, he’s having trouble keeping it in stock. Dr. Sears is the author of more than 500 scientific papers. Thousands of people listened to him speak at the recent Palm Beach Health & Wellness Festival featuring Dr. Oz. NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Namath recently visited his clinic, the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine. Primal Max Red has only been available for a few months — but everyone who takes it reports a big difference. “I have the energy to have sex three times in one day, WOW! That has not happened in years. Oh, by the way I am 62,” says Jonathan K. from Birmingham, AL.

A new discovery that increases nitric oxide availability was recently proven in a clinical trial to boost blood flow 275%

“I measured my nitric oxide levels, you can buy a test kit from Amazon,” reports 48-year-old Jeff O. “Monday night I showed depleted.” Then he used ingredients in Primal Max Red and, “The results were off the charts. I first woke around 3 a.m. on Tuesday very excited. My nitric oxide levels measured at the top end of the range.”

HOW IT WORKS

FREE BONUS TESTOSTERONE BOOSTER

Loss of erection power starts with your blood vessels. Specifically, the inside layer called the endothelium where nitric oxide is made.

Every order also gets Dr. Sears testosterone boosting formula Primal Max Black for free.

The problem is various factors THICKEN your blood vessels as you age. This blocks availability causing the nitric oxide “glitch.” The result is difficulty in getting and sustaining a healthy erection. How bad is the problem? Researcher shows the typical 40-year-old man absorbs 50% less nitric oxide. At 50, that drops to 25%. And once you pass 60 just a measly 15% gets through. To make matters worse, nitric oxide levels start declining in your 30’s. And by 70, nitric oxide production is down an alarming 75%. Primal Max Red is the first formula to tackle both problems. Combining powerful nitric oxide boosters and a proven delivery mechanism that defeats the nitric oxide “glitch” resulting in 275% better blood flow. There’s not enough space here to fully explain how it works, so Dr. Sears will send anyone who orders Primal Max Red a free special report that explains everything.

MORE CLINICAL RESULTS Nutrients in Primal Max Red have logged impressive results. In a Journal of Applied Physiology study, one resulted in a 30 times MORE nitric oxide. And these increased levels lasted up to 12 hours.

“If you want passionate ‘rip your clothes off’ sex you had in your younger days, you need nitric oxide to get your erection going. And testosterone for energy and drive,” says Dr. Sears. “You get both with Primal Max Red and Primal Max Black.”

HOW TO GET PRIMAL MAX To secure free bottles of Primal Max Black and get the hot, new Primal Max Red formula, buyers should contact the Sears Health Hotline at 1-800-977-3210 within the next 48 hours. “It’s not available in drug stores yet,” says Dr. Sears. “The Hotline allows us to ship directly to the customer.” Dr. Sears feels so strongly about Primal Max, all orders are backed by a 100% money-back guarantee. “Just send me back the bottle and any unused product within 90 days from purchase date, and I’ll send you all your money back,” he says.

ADVICE GODDESS

Apt. 201B Or Not To Be My boyfriend and I have been together for two years, and my lease is up in a few months. I was thinking about asking him if he wants to live together. When is the right time to move in with someone, and how do you know whether that’s even a good idea? — Housing Crisis There are people you can share a home with who do not do a slew of annoying things, and they’re those who are continuing their tenure on our planet in an urn. As a failed romantic (aka human-nature realist), I think there’s a right time to move in with another

by amy alkon

person, such as my boyfriend of 18 years, and it’s never. That said, in my financial dream world, I’d be into our buying houses next door to each other. Of course, this sort of thing is less practical for a couple with kids because a substantial part of parenting involves finding your children so annoying in the moment that you take steps to civilize them. And let’s be honest, all children are irritating (loud, sticky, and often unbelievably tedious), save for those frozen in mute adorableness in photographs, my favorite kind. There’s often financial pressure to live together, especially in urban elitevilles where a grim little closet pretending to be an apartment rents for the price of a gleaming penthouse in any city in the Midwest. Unfortunately, though sharing an apartment saves big on rent, it can cost a couple their relationship if they end up going at each other like rats in an undersized cage. As for what makes a relationship work, cohabitational or otherwise, there’s this notion that couples who have happy, lasting partnerships love each other more than those who break up. Sorry, romantics! Sure, when a relationship is brand-new, affection

and lust make for a big heart-shaped airbag against annoyance and resentment. However, in “The Power of Bad,” science journalist John Tierney and social psychologist Roy Baumeister explain that, over time, the sweet, tender things each partner says and does matter far less than how a couple deals with “the negative stuff — their doubts, their frustrations, their problems.” Their book centers on what researchers call the “negativity bias”: how we pay far more attention to negative information, emotions, and experiences than positive and give the negative stuff far more weight. The negativity bias is especially toxic in heterosexual relationships, due to some general sex differences in personality and emotional orientation, summed up by researchers as “female demand/male withdrawal.” “Female demand” is driven by how women tend to be higher in the personality trait of “neuroticism,” which involves a tendency to react with negative emotions. People high in neuroticism see the world through mud-covered glasses: They’re anxious, moody, easily irritated, and perceive intentional slights in incidents others shrug off as the small

frustrations of life. Basically, high neuroticism is the personality trait of picky complainers: “You loaded the dishwasher all wrong!” “You’re feeding the baby all wrong!” And then the inevitable, “You’re climbing out the window and running down the street screaming all wrong!” Regarding “male withdrawal” (lest you dudes start feeling all smugly superior), men tend to respond to relationship conflicts by going emotionally comatose, experiencing an emotional systems overload that clinical psychologist Robert Levenson and other researchers call “flooding.” In short, men are more likely to get overwhelmed by emotion and simply shut down. Not surprisingly, same-sex couples are less predisposed to plunge into a negativity spiral. Tierney and Baumeister explain, “If it’s two men, they’re less likely to initiate a complaint; if it’s two women, they’re less likely to withdraw after being criticized.” That said, simply being human — in a job, a friendship, or a relationship — makes us prone to go negative. That’s important to understand in light of research by psychologist John Gottman surveying couples who’d just gotten married and looking at

which couples were divorced six years later. What mattered were not the positive, loving sentiments couples expressed but how they responded to conflict. Citing this research, Tierney and Baumeister explain: “Being able to hold your tongue rather than say something nasty or spiteful will do much more for your relationship than a good word or deed.” (Love is not blind, but love can choose to throw on a blindfold.) When I got together with my boyfriend, I made a pact with myself to never speak to him like I’ve forgotten I love him. This has helped me avoid going ugly over the years, but I have to give living apart a good bit of the credit. Psychologist Erich Fromm wrote, “Mature love says: ‘I need you because I love you.’” Cohabiting love says: “I need you to take out the trash because I’ll get 20-to-life for electrocuting you in the bathtub.” ©2020, Amy Alkon, all rights reserved.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES

(March 21-April 19):

Back in 1974, poet Allen Ginsberg and his “spirit wife,” Aries poet Anne Waldman, were roommates at the newly established Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado. The school’s founder asked these two luminaries to create a poetics program, and thus was born the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics. Waldman described its ruling principle to be the “outrider” tradition, with a mandate to explore all that was iconoclastic, freethinking, and irreverent. The goal of teachers and students alike was to avoid safe and predictable work so as to commune with wild spiritual powers, “keep the energies dancing,” and court eternal surprise. I think that would be a healthy approach for you to flirt with during the next few weeks.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20):

Any legal actions you take are more likely to be successful if you initiate them between now and the solstice than if you’d begin them at other times. The same is true for any contracts you sign or agreements you make: They have a better chance to thrive than they would at other times. Other activities with more kismet than usual during the coming weeks: efforts to cultivate synergy and symbiosis; attempts to turn power struggles into more cooperative ventures; a push to foster greater equality in hierarchical situations; and ethical moves to get access to and benefit from other people’s resources.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20):

Never follow an expert off a precipice. Nor a teacher. Nor an attractive invitation. Nor a symbol of truth nor a vibrant ideal nor a tempting gift. In fact, never follow anything

off a precipice, no matter how authoritative or sexy or appealing it might be. On the other hand, if any of those influences are headed in the direction of a beautiful bridge that can enable you to get to the other side of a precipice, you should definitely consider following them. Be on the alert for such lucky opportunities in the coming weeks.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22):

Malidoma Patrice Somé was born into the Dagara tribe of Burkina Faso. After being initiated into the Dagara’s spiritual mysteries, he emigrated to America, where he has taught a unique blend of modern and traditional ideas. One of his key themes is the hardship that Westerners’ souls endure because of the destructive impact of the machine world upon the spiritual world. He says there is “an indigenous person within each of us” that longs to cultivate the awareness and understanding enjoyed by indigenous people: a reverence for nature, a vital relationship with ancestors, and a receptivity to learn from the intelligence of animals. How’s your inner indigenous person doing? The coming weeks will be an excellent time to enhance your ability to commune with and nurture that vital source.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22):

Psychologists have identified a quality they call NFD: “need for drama.” Those who possess it may be inclined to seek or even instigate turmoil out of a quest for excitement. After all, bringing a dose of chaos into one’s life can cure feelings of boredom or powerlessness. “I’m important enough to rouse a Big Mess!” may be the subconscious battle cry. I’ll urge you Leos to studiously and diligently avoid fostering NFD in the coming

weeks. In my astrological opinion, you will have a blessed series of interesting experiences if and only if you shed any attraction you might have to histrionic craziness.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

“Give up the notion that you must be sure of what you are doing,” wrote philosopher Baruch Spinoza. “Instead, surrender to what is real within you, for that alone is sure.” Spinoza’s thoughts will be a great meditation for you in the coming weeks. If you go chasing phantom hopes, longing for absolute certainty and iron confidence, you’ll waste your energy. But if you identify what is most genuine and true and essential about you, and you rely on it to guide you, you can’t possibly fail.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

“A little bad taste is like a nice splash of paprika,” said Libran fashion writer Diana Vreeland. “We all need a splash of bad taste,” she continued. “It’s hearty, it’s healthy, it’s physical. I think we could use more of it. Having no taste is what I’m against.” I understand that her perspective might be hard to sell to you refined Librans. But I think it’s good advice right now. Whatever’s lacking in your world, whatever might be off-kilter, can be cured by a dash of good, funky earthiness. Dare to be a bit messy and unruly.

SCORPIO

prudent, piecemeal triumph comes from activist and author Helen Keller: “I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble.”

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

To convey the spirit of the coming weeks, I’m offering you wisdom from two women who were wise about the art of slow and steady progress. First, here’s author Iris Murdoch: “One of the secrets of a happy life is continuous small treats, and if some of these can be inexpensive and quickly procured so much the better.” Your second piece of insight about the wonders of

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Sagittarian statesman Winston Churchill said that he was always ready to learn — even though there were times when he didn’t enjoy being taught. That might be a useful motto for you to adopt in the coming months. By my estimates, 2021 could turn out to bring a rather spectacular learning spurt — and a key boost to your life-long education. If you choose to take advantage of the cosmic potentials, you could make dramatic enhancements to your knowledge and skill set. As Churchill’ s message suggests, not all of your new repertoire will come easily and pleasantly. But I bet that at least 80 percent of it will. Start planning!

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

In accordance with upcoming astrological indicators, I’ve got some good advice for you courtesy of your fellow Capricorn David Bowie. You’ll be well-served to keep it in mind between now and January 1, 2021. “Go a little bit out of your depth,” counseled Bowie. “And when you don’t feel that your feet are quite touching the bottom, you’re just about in the right place to do something exciting.” For extra inspiration, I’ll add another prompt from the creator of Ziggy Stardust: “Once you lose that sense of wonder at being alive, you’re pretty much on the way out.” In that spirit, my dear Capricorn, please take measures to expand your sense of wonder during the next six weeks. Make sure you’re on your way in.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Most of us aren’t brilliant virtuosos like, say, Leonardo da Vinci or Nobel Prize-winning scientist Marie Curie. On the other hand, every one of us has a singular amalgam of potentials that is unique in the history of the world — an exceptional flair or an idiosyncratic mastery or a distinctive blend of talents. In my astrological opinion, you Aquarians will have unprecedented opportunities to develop and ripen this golden and glorious aspect of yourself in 2021. And now is a good time to begin making plans. I encourage you to launch your year-long Festival of Becoming by writing down a description of your special genius.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20):

In 1969, humans flew a spaceship to the moon and landed on it for the first time. In 1970, the state of Alabama finally made it legal for interracial couples to get married. That’s a dramatic example of how we humans may be mature and strong in some ways even as we remain backward and undeveloped in other ways. According to my astrological analysis, the coming months will be a highly favorable time for the immature and unseasoned parts of you to ripen. I encourage you to get started! Homework: Name something you feel like begging for. Then visualize in great detail that this something is already yours.
