At a loss for words after the Orlando nightclub massacre and feeling detached and numb, Amanda Moreno describes her realization that, this time, it is her community that was targeted.

Recently, Amanda Moreno found herself caught in a war of ideas with a friend.

With a mutable grand cross in the works astrologically, Amanda Moreno feels on the verge of some form of identity crisis.
