a masterclass on the
mechanics of power
long story short
you can't do anything without power.
you don't understand how power works and that's why there are things that you want to do that you won't do.
you are stuck on this side of the threshold.
when you understand the mechanics of power, you can never truly be stuck again.
this is the key that opens every door.
this is SKELETON KEY.
so about this key...
the key is comprised of your relationship to:
chaos
fear
and death.
your ability to wield power -- which is to say your ability to do anything -- hinges on these concepts. what we're doing with SKELETON KEY is
liberating these relationships from resistance.
most humans confuse, abhor, and run from chaos, fear, and death. when you understand these concepts, you stop running from them. and when you stop running from them, there is ostensibly no limit to how empowered you can be.
how'd you get here
i've always been a quitter.
if i can't play the game the way i want to play it, i just won't play.
in 1995, it was giving stubborn.
in 2026, it's giving soverign.
the game used to be super mario world. now, the game is life (it's always been life).
a 9 to 5? a wife and kids with a white picket fence? falling in line under fascism?
thanks, i'd rather die.
on some level, i've always known that this is the thing that sets me apart from nearly every person i've ever met. in 2025, i decided to sit down and map it out.
what is this power and where does it come from? why can i be okay no matter what's going on and the next person can't?
it's because i'm ungovernable. and i'm ungovernable because i'm unbothered. but i'm unbothered because i understand death differently than most people. i've been spending my entire life practicing the kind of relationship with death that most people are shamed out of before they're even 5 years old.
turns out, "quitting" might be the most valuable skill you can have. and i'm here to help you put it at the top of your resumé.
babes. i don't like watching you settle. i don't enjoy your disappointment. being empowered enough to revel in any situation is possible. let's get you there.

the key and i
i used to think,
“i’d better hurry up and get what i want out of this normal life because once i really claim my power, everything changes.”
but things had already changed. i wasn’t playing by the rules, i was making my own. i wasn’t participating in systems, i was leaving them behind. and I realized I was suffering for precisely that reason. i was a planet abandoning its star, expecting to travel to the next galaxy. but a planet can’t direct its own movement through space.
i wasn’t traveling. i was hovering.
it dawned on me: you will be lost to the void when you leave a home star behind unless you become your own. i realized that, even in a “normal life,” there is no getting what i want without claiming my power.
when there is no way I deem worthy, i have no choice but to become the way. if I'm not using the wheel, i have no choice but to fly. when the powers that be are not fit for me, the only power left...
is mine.
when i rose to meet this truth, one of the most impactful things i learned is that power is an equation and death is the part that most of us are missing. this armed me with the ability to contend with any challenge, and the capacity to revel in any circumstance. it gave me the skeleton key.
now I know: the key awaits everyone. whether you take it, and unlock the full breadth of your power, the full breadth of your freedom, is a matter of deciding what story you're telling. if you don't claim your power, you'll be at the mercy of someone else's — drifting through space until some new star ensnares you in its orbit. when you decide that's not the story you'll be telling with this life, you'll find yourself here, with the skeleton key in your hands.
and the revelation before you:
chaos is food
fear is a reload
death is the key
death is the key to the crown. reclaim it and no prison can hold you.
a gathering to explore the sacred grief of transpersonal astrology
what would you do
if you came back from the dead only to find that the world was ending?
settle in for an exploration of the final four signs of the zodiac; sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius, and pisces; through the lens of an end times journey.
come eager to sense into what it means to hold the grief of being between one death and another, to honor what it takes to bear the burden of building a world you'll never get to see.
returning soon
