This week was weird. And perfect.



Hey you,

This week I had one of those “what is even my life?” weeks.

It wasn’t dramatic. No plot twists or cosmic explosions. Just a string of random little moments that somehow made me feel more… myself.

Like: 🍜 Eating Chinese food with my friend, Kymmie while an older woman we’d just met (who may or may not be a time-traveling oracle in disguise) dropped the kind of casual wisdom that made me want to tattoo her words on my forehead.

🦜 Getting introduced to my friend Terrie’s Molluccan Cockatoo on video—who honestly had more sass and presence than some of the people I’ve worked with. His name is Yossi Yaki and he's 26 years old and full of personality! We could all learn something from this beautiful guy. (he's about to eat his dried papaya snack!)

🐶 Watching my husband fly a kids’ drone in our backyard while our two dogs took turns barking at it and hiding behind my legs like it was the harbinger of the apocalypse.

🎧 And laughing so hard at a comedy special on Spotify that I snorted my coffee. 10/10 would not recommend, but also kind of worth it?

Nothing on my calendar said “reconnect with your inner compass,” but that’s exactly what happened.

Because when life gets weird in that beautiful, magical way, it reminds me: I don’t have to overthink everything. I just have to listen. To myself. To the energy. To the weird birds.

And that’s what The Cosmic Compass is for.

It’s my free cosmic sanctuary where I share astrology-backed guidance to help you tap into your own magic and move through life and business with more clarity, ease, and intuition.

So if you’re also feeling like maybe the universe is sending you signs through birds, noodles, and backyard chaos… you’re not wrong. 😅

👉 CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE COSMIC COMPASS FOR FREE! You’ll get to learn astrology, weekly insights, seasonal strategy, and my favorite intuitive tools for navigating business, burnout, and brilliance.

This is NOT another FB group, this is a private space I made for you in an app.

Thanks for letting me back in your inbox. I promise not to disappear again unless a Yossi tells me to.

Cheers,

Tara "having a weird one" Schafer

Hey you, So… quick confession: A few weeks ago, I accidentally joined a gym. Not in a “new year, new me” moment of motivation. No. This was a “I just came in to use the bathroom and somehow I’m now enrolled in a 12-month contract” kind of situation. The woman at the front desk was very persuasive. She told me I had “a good energy,” and suddenly I was nodding along like yes, I DO deserve to be the best version of myself, even though all I wanted was to not pee on the side of the road. I walked...

Howdy, Real quick. I just dropped a new episode of The ODD Witch Radio Show for you after a long and much needed break. (It's a long and personal story. Maybe, I'll share one day...) BUT... I'm back! And would love if you would allow me back in your ear! You can tune in RIGHT HERE Would love to know what you think of it. You can hit reply and let me know OR.... leave a comment. Thank you for being you, Tara "back in your ear" Schafer a.k.a. The ODD Witch

When the Universe Pushes You (Whether You’re Ready or Not) Hello Beautiful Soul, I spent the better part of the week lying on my couch fighting a nasty sinus infection. Instead of talking to you about Kleenex vs toilet paper to blow your nose with, I completely made up what could have happened! Enjoy this little made up story! Have you ever noticed how the universe has a way of pushing you exactly when you need it—even when you’re desperately clinging to your comfort zone with white knuckles?...
