Thursday, Thors day, and the gods were once planets.
The Planets were inseparable from the Gods for most of human history. We have come so far in our modern edge and scientific mindset that we the educated west tend to completely dismiss as superstition the ways that our ancestors thought. Every new generation thinks it is the smartest, best, and most intelligent generation that […]
The Signing of a Law
The Unites States President signed into effect 23 executive orders on gun control on the 16th of January 2013. I am in favor of some gun control, none the less, I seek not to argue the point here, rather to marvel at the astrological time that the executive order took place. The chart for the […]
Dec. 21 2012. The End of the World
Well friends, countrymen, countrywomen, colleagues, foreign nationals and humans of all shapes and sizes, we have now arrived at the end of the Mayan Tzolkin Long Count Calender, the end of the world. I am a little uncertain as to why a central american tribe gets to end the world for all of us, it […]
Lunar Eclipse 6 degrees gemini
Lunar eclipses create effects on a few levels. They will create an effect on any planet they aspect in a tight orb. They will also create an effect on the weather. The effects on personal planets are defined by the soros cycle that the eclipse is part of. This eclipse is part of Saros cycle […]
The Awesome Saturn Return
I would like to continue with the Saturn theme. The Saturn Return is considered by many to be an epic event. Of all the astrological subjects that come up during readings from people who are casual in there relationship to astrology, this is number two. Number one, for the record, would be the Sun, Moon, […]
A Scorpio Storm hits New York
While driving around my little cozy hamlet of Arcata today, I was thinking about how Saturn in Scorpio has a quality of urging us mere mortals to dig deeper into the mysteries of life. Saturn symbolizes earthen work, and Scorpio that which is deep. Masha’allah the famed Jewish astrologer of the 14th century, said, which […]
The Old Man wanders into Scorpio
Saturn, in astrology, has a certain fatalism implied to him. Saturn is an old man, a devil, he is horned, he illuminates the final darkness of the solar system that extends infinitely beyond the visible circle of light of the Sun. For no Planet past Saturn is visible to our naked eye, when we peer […]
The Big Dogs Bark.
Like most mortals, I was stunned by Bill Clintons speech last night. Before it started, I was running around the house telling my wife and kids, “Bill Clinton is speaking tonight, you have to hear this man speak, he is one of the most gifted speakers in the world.” Unlike them, I am old enough […]
Mitt Romneys Chart is not exalted
It is a terrible and powerful thing to start reading astrology blogs. Thank you for your patience if you find your way here. Today I happened to read a few and both seemed to me to be written as if they were trying to convince people that astrology is just babble. Babble here means arguments […]
Lets Muddle around Neptune
Today Mercury is Opposed Neptune. I would like to take this opportunity to speak about Neptune. Often times people cringe at oppositions, but you will find, whenever they occur, either in a natal chart, or in a mundane transit, they serve to shine light on the planets involved. They bring the energy of the planets […]
The Spiritual Conversion of Snoop Dogg aka Snoop Lion
When I go through the day and read of the lives of various celebrities through the internet culture. Always in the back of my mind there is the question of what is propelling them astrologically. Astrology holds that we are compelled in our actions by forces which the planets either emit, translate, or symbolically represent […]
The Mystery of Venus.
Today Venus passes before the sun. It does so, not just by degree in the sky, but also directly in front of the Sun, which is called Cazimi. Cazimi means in the heart of the Sun and it is the state of true conjunction. For the condition of Cazimi to be fulfilled the planet hast […]
