I first opened up this blog in 2016 as “Lotus Laura” (lotuslaura94!) Since then, it’s been a great run. I stuck with the name because I know that changing blog names can be confusing for everyone else! Lots of things have changed since 2016. When I first began this blog, it was more about keeping…

Pluto transits take a very long time, spending about 10-30 years in each zodiac sign. And so, one Pluto transit defines an entire era in history. Those born under a certain zodiac sign in Pluto make up a distinct generation. It not only defines the era that they were born in, but the changes they…

Happy new year!!! It’s time to take a look back at my blog stats! These stats do not include everyone — if you have your cookies turned off, if you are viewing through WordPress reader, etc. They are not completely accurate. 2020 saw an extreme splurge in growth, while 2021 continued to show significant progress…
