• Reflections on the news

  It’s been an incredibly violent few weeks. Actually I’ve been noticing this all year — lots of detective teams digging various places. In recent weeks we’ve been exposed to many severe crimes, most of them committed against women. Yesterday’s attack at Fort Hood takes things to a new level, and I think is a good reason to stop and think about our values and the direction our country is taking. We say we’re a Christian nation, and we leave people without food and health care so that we can wage wars in remote parts of the world. If you call yourself a…

  An esoteric book store closes in Paris and will soon become a cooking store. On the list of previous offerings: alchemy, astrology, kabbalah, philosophy, medieval studies, religions, spirituality, tarot... On the list of new offerings: simplicity, good moments, sharing, delicious, pleasure, relaxation... And what would it feel like to combine the two and have all in the same shop?

  Today’s Oracle takes us to the SAGITTARIUS – Weekly of Jan 14, 2000 It looks to me like you are brewing the perfect psychic chemistry to blend your typically conservative financial instincts with just the right amount of luck and daring to turn something unlikely into a sure winner. A big part of the equation will be an insight into how valuable what you’re working with really is, even though its worth may not be readily apparent. Between value that’s real but goes unnoticed and value that becomes fully apparent in its worth usually occurs some kind of creative…

• Astrology As a Guide to Personal Development

  admin

  5 Nov 2009 | 9:11 pm

  Astrology was more advanced as a science in ancient times it is today. Now it is still only, in a sense, being rediscovered. It would therefore be wise to look to ancient traditions as guides to present developments. One feature that stands out most clearly in the ancient writings is the emphasis that was placed on astrology as a guide to personal development, rather than as a mere statement of problems with no suggestion of a solution.

  SCORPIO is the keeper of secrets. There is much depth to this sign, as deep as the ocean. Scorpio is content to discover everything about others, but will divulge little about his or her self and this puzzling quality makes them all the more magnetic. Their eyes are storms-at-sea ready to pull you into their undertow and sweep you away. Their reputation of being highly sexual comes with a bill of sale.

  Moon in Cancer brings a lot of moodiness and emotional defensiveness with it. Pluto likes to blow things up. Put the two together and you have a powerful combination, like an 80s action movie with both Schwarzenegger and Stallone in it.

Now his yapping has landed him in the hot seat with the wifey and put him in the running for Moonit’s “Pathetic Loser of the Year Award” (Seriously?

  A wave of energy through Scorpio is likely to bring secrets to light. You will discover them yourself first, then the next step will be to tell others. Make sure you confide in someone who you know cares about you. The kinds of personal revelations that are possible will come from a deep sense of vulnerability. Feeling positive about yourself will require a careful balancing act. A setup involving the Sun, Mercury and a small, meaningful planet called Nessus suggest we need to be careful not to inflict our parents’ judgments onto ourselves. There’s also a reminder not to make small…

  This week’s question comes from Adina from Montreal, Quebec: How will Saturn’s transit through Libra affect me (personally, professionally), taking into consideration the position of Pluto until 2024, of Neptune and Uranus and Jupiter - the slower moving planets? Neith’s response: Adina, I believe you will find Saturn in Libra much, much easier to live with than when he was in Virgo for many reasons, the most important being Saturn is far more at home in thoughtful, equitable Libra. When Saturn entered Virgo in September 2007, he started right out by conjoining your Jupiter,…

  2 Nov 2009 | 9:38 am

  We’re heading into dreamtime now. With the Sun in Scorpio and Neptune at a standstill, preparing to go direct, we’re all more open to psychic phenomena and “downloads” from the universe. I forgot to mention in last week’s forecast that Sunday was the Celtic cross-quarter day of Samhain. In earlier times, Samhain was the beginning of the new year. In the industrialized West, we tend to view night and the dark part of the year as negative and undesirable, but to the nature-centered Celts, light grows out of darkness, so their days began at sunset, not sunrise, and…

  The Full Moon in Taurus on November 2 puts the focus back on the fixed signs, if only temporarily, reminding us what’s worth hanging onto and what we need to release as we head into a period with so much change. At 10°30′ Scorpio-Taurus, the Sun and Moon form a tight T-square with Mars in Leo. Using a wide orb, we get fixed grand cross with Jupiter in Aquarius, underscoring the hazards of taking an ideological stance come what may. The Sun in eagle-eyed Scorpio conjoins Mercury, and both are square Scorpio’s co-ruler, Mars. This can translate into potential explosions due to…

And how will it affect the lucky ones with the conjunction in their natal charts? Mine has been sizzling for weeks now, scaring the hell out of me.

• Neptune Direct and the Fort Hood Shootings

  Monica

  5 Nov 2009 | 8:32 pm

  I recently commented at Stars Over Washington that the Nov. 4 Neptune station of Aquarius so close to the U.S. Moon would produce an event that would bring sorrow to the American populace. I think we’ve seen this with the shootings in Fort Hood, Tex. This tragedy galvanized my family because my nephew left Mosul, Iraq, about two days ago, heading to the center in Fort Hood where the violence occurred. My sister has received an e-mail from a military liaison assuring her that her son is safe, but we still are not 100% certain. I myself am at a loss for words, but feel ready to dive back…

  I haven’t been tending my blog quite as well as I should be, but I wanted to put up a quick post about how today’s celebrity deaths of Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson are triggering a period of national mourning of sorts, fueled by the Internet and social networking. Depending on what time you use for the U.S. chart, the current Jupiter/Neptune conjunction is either conjunct or quite close to the U.S. Moon, which signifies the people of the nation. Today, the Moon is in Leo, which often coincides with accidents and surprises, and this is opposing the Jupiter/Neptune conjunction…

  Just as the Moon moved into Capricorn at 3:59 p.m. Eastern time today, where it’s close to a conjunction with Pluto and a trine with Venus and Mars in Taurus, investors got a bouquet from Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. What’s interesting is that Justice Ginsburg only had until 4 p.m. to make her ruling. I won’t bore you with all the details, but I’m not surprised that Ginsburg ruled to delay the sale of Chrysler to Fiat, a deal that put unsecred creditors ahead of secured creditors. Justice Ginsburg obviously doesn’t take the sanctity of contracts…

• Erisian Elusiveness, Plutonic Potential

  chirotic

  28 Oct 2009 | 7:38 am

  Here is an interesting idea. Eris, Goddess of Discord, so named after being more or less directly responsible for the declassification of Pluto as a genuine planet and his reclassification as a ‘dwarf planet’ – if anyone is going to take Pluto down a notch or two it had to be Eris (the sister of Ares no less) – does not roll in a conventional orbit; she is differently inclined. Which means that for long periods of her very slow perambulation around the Sun, she is far from the traditional ecliptic of the Zodiac; certainly, she makes an appearance in the Zodiac: in the…

I would not wish to posit a specific astrological entity for the other awareness, it no doubt lies at the centre of your nativity, the place you are drawn to if you are prepared to suffer a little or a lot, or repelled by, if you are otherwise. This otherness is entirely Chirotic, in my view. And should we find ourselves in pursuit of this ‘other’ faculty that is not the mind, not the feelings and not the body either, we might well ask, “what is it?”. Well, it is a sense of rightness.

When the Human Design System was first brought through in 1985, Ra Uru Hu was told (as I understand it) that there was to be so much evolution of the heart chakra between that date and 2027 that it had been necessarily to split it into three separate energy centres. In the chart they are known as the Solar Plexus Centre ~ personal heart ~ emotional energy,…

Also at the Throat is Mars bringing Jupiter’s faith and hope with it.  And by connecting to the G Centre we also get the energy of Pluto mixing in. And Saturn is there as well.  OMG!

The planetary directions I'm talking about here involve two places I know about which have a walk through the countryside along a marked path which has placed, at appropriate intervals, models and information about the planets in the solar system.The first time I encountered this novel walk was in Zurich, when attending a seminar at the Astrological Psychology Institute where Bruno and Louise were…

• Stephen Fry's Small Talent triangle

  Joyce Hopewell

  5 Oct 2009 | 9:24 am

  Actor and presenter Stephen Fry was born on 24th August 1957 in London. Best known in both these roles either side of the Atlantic, Fry is also very popular amongst the Twitterati who follow his thoughts and witty musings. No time of birth is available so his chart is set up for Noon. This makes for some interesting speculation as the overall aspect structure is small, tightly packed and only fills one of the four quadrants of the chart. Which one this would be, had we the correct birth time, it would be interesting to see. Whichever quadrant is emphasised, this will always leave the…

  A few years ago Yahoo launched a website where users can submit and answer questions called Yahoo Answers.   The site has become quite popular since then, and many people are familiar with it because it shows up frequently in search results for various queries.

  The South Node represents what we’ve come into this life with---the gifts, the wounds, the challenges. On the most basic level, the South Node is where we are comfortable because we are familiar with the territory, and with the South Node in Taurus, or with the Moon in Taurus, we know the delights of being comfortable, being sensual and sexual, having a sense of financial and emotional security, and enjoying the things in life that make it worth living.

Yes, they each are different—dare I say “slightly?”—in that the Moon describes your obvious emotional and nurturing style in this life and how you relate to all things “maternal” including your Mother. However, the Moon's Nodes—are the Nodes of the Moon! And the South Node specifically holds the emotional memory of the Soul, so the story goes back further…

Actually, the predictions pretty much "nailed it." The following timeline of the financial crisis and predictions made demonstrate this in a convincing manner.EMERGENCE OF CRISISOn January 6, 2007, one of the first predictions was made on the basis of the SAMVA USA chart.

During this time, it is perhaps not surprising to find that the cultural spotlight has been prominently placed on things that are generally not considered divine, rather the opposite, or irreligious things. Irreligion is defined as an absence of religion, indifference to religion, and/or hostility to religion. [1] Of course, in the Kailyuga (iron) age, the tendency is for pervaisive materialism. However, even within this materialistic age, the religious tendency would be…

  Yet another mundane prediction based on the Systems' Approach has been realised. Earlier this year, when oil was below $40 it was predicted to rise in 2009. Indeed, the oil price has been rising throughout 2009. Saturn entered Virgo in early September and the oil price is now more than double its price at the beginning of the year, but less than the peak reached in 2008 when Saturn was in Leo. It was also predicted that the oil price would remain below the earlier peak of mid 2008. So far, this prediction has also been fulfilled.Oil hits $82 per barrel as dollar plungesAP - 4:07 pm EDT,…

  Many Western astrologers assume modern Western astrology owes its origins to the discovery of astrology by the ancient Babylonians. [1] They also consider that astrology was further developed by the Egyptians of antiquity before reaching its penultimate stage in the Hellenic world. Further, they consider that the 'horoscopic astrology' of the Hellenic world informed astrology in India. At the same time, the evidence suggests 'horary astrology' was originally developed by Indian astrologers. [2] The above conclusions are strictly based on an interpretation of the literary record.

  Most people look to either September 21, 1949 or October 1, 1949 when the People's Republic of China (PRC) was officially founded as having given birth to modern China. As an astrological examination of these dates has not provided a convincing match for major significant events in China's modern history, further research into the history of modern China was undertaken. An event has now been identified that may represent the actual birth of modern China. This event is the founding by Mao Zedong and his cadre in the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) of the Chinese Soviet Republic (CSR) in Ruijin,…

• Solar Return and the Intent for the Next Year

  Hiroki Niizato

  26 Oct 2009 | 5:30 am

  Birthday is a terrific time to appreciate the development of the past year and look forward to a new cycle of growth. As the Sun returns to its natal position each year, it shines light on our core life intent and makes it easier for us to live from our center (i.e. the place of rest, peace, power and authenticity). Many people consult their astrologers around their birthdays for this very reason.Today is my Solar return, and I wanted to meditate a bit on the core life intent represented by my natal Sun:Sun's Sign & House PlacementMy Scorpio Sun in the 8th house suggests that one of my…

• Archetypal Musings: the Solar Journey

  Hiroki Niizato

  7 Oct 2009 | 7:00 pm

  The Sun and the King ArchetypeIn astrology the Sun represents our core authentic self. The Solar journey is a quest for true self knowledge and authenticity.Think of the last time you felt really centered and able to feel the joy of being fully alive in the moment. That was a Solar moment, where you were most likely expressing true facets of your being. All of our fears, challenges and personal shortcomings fade away when we are in that special moment.Robert Bly called this Solar experience as "being in the presence of the King." King (or Queen) is an image frequently connected to the…

  Hiroki Niizato

  29 Sep 2009 | 8:00 pm

  Being extremely busy is inevitable for most of us some of the time - especially if you have passionate commitments in several life areas, and/or you need to support your family. During certain heavy transits or progressions (e.g. Pluto's hard transit to Saturn* or vice versa), the responsibility and workload may increase to an overwhelming degree, creating potential for a lot of stress.When feeling overwhelmed, it's important for us to gain a clear perspective. Here I share with you a tool that I learned in one of my coaching sessions. You might have heard of it:The Mind DumpIt's very simple…

  TheStarryEye Astrologer

  Lottery ads tell us you only need a dollar and a dream. But I think it is also helpful to have a list of lucky numbers to help spur the good fortune ... or fortunes. So with that in mind, I decided that we could use some lucky numbers that can be used in any helpful way. I gazed into a pool of water, Nostradamus-like, and contemplated the cosmos. Then I mixed the tarot cards and allowed the spirits to guide me to the cards that represent the lucky numbers for this week. Nothing is guaranteed but who knows ....? I choose eight numbers because 8 is the number of wealth. Here are the lucky…

The collection is rooted in Octavio Bajonero Gil's art collection. Octavio's collection includes "dozens of tiny calaveritas," or small, decorated skulls, "along with hundreds of other death-related artworks he had acquired over 50 years."

• Right Place Wrong Time?

  The ingress of Saturn in the sign of Libra brings balance and justice to relationships. Saturn through the signs represents the one thing we can problem solve in our lives. Saturn is also about timing. Saturn in  Libra can invariably mean good timing for lessons and rewards in life. The ingress of Saturn into Libra meets head on with Pluto.  It would seem that Saturn is in the right place at the wrong time. Saturn The Rock Saturn is Exhalted in Libra which allows the Dignity for praise and respect. The ingress chart for Saturn in Libra shows Venus in her sign of Libra. Saturn is placed very…

  Demystifying the Aquarian Age

  We have anniversaries, biennial events, diamond jubilees, centenaries, bi-centenaries and even millenarianism but rarely do celebrations arrive around every 7,000 years!  Between 2015 and 2029 a very special event takes place that has not occurred since 5122 BC.  The world in 5122 BC was a very different place.  The population of the world was about 25 million people in 3000 BC, and so perhaps 10 to 15 million people were alive in 5122 BC – about the size of present day Los Angeles.  Nevertheless great things were stirring in the world as this period marked the first widespread settling…

  What is the relationship between the Age of Aquarius and a block of granite?  There is an expectation by most people that the Age of Aquarius will arrive (if it has not done so already) to replace the Age of Pisces.  The Age of Pisces supposedly produced this sorry world full of greed, war, inequality, corruption and so on.  With the arrival of the Aquarian age the sorry state of the world under Pisces is going to be replaced by a glorious world under Aquarius bringing consciousness, spiritual renewal and peace amongst many other paradisiacal expectations including a virtual return to the…

  Sun in Scorpio, Moon in Cancer Sun and Moon are now both in Yin water signs that understand one another very well. After putting our ideas out there under the Gemini Moon, the instinct is now to return to our shells a little bit, protect and nurture our loved ones and tune in to the feelings again. The signs alternate between Yin and Yang, and in that sense represent the wave-like flow of life - we have to reflect and take things in (Yin) before we’re in a position to put out what we’ve discovered (Yang), and then rest and reflect again, etc., in a neverending cycle.

On the surface they don’t really want the same things, but they can work together to use one another’s strengths - the potential is for brilliant wit with penetrating insight, the Gemini Moon providing a “socially acceptable face” to bring through Scorpio’s intensity. There’s also much potential for clever-sounding, witty, but deeply cutting remarks that feel good (Moon) at the time, but will be…

  November is turning out to be quite a month with Sun, Mercury and Venus in Scorpio. All that passion and intensity is a good way to offset this winter month in the northern hemisphere. Venus enters the water sign of Scorpio on 9 November, 2009 and while it is there, it teaches us that love is also passion, passion is also torment and sometimes torment is transmuted into death and transformation. Now, why would someone talk about death and transformation when they talk of Venus? Isn’t Venus about love and romance and all those other nice things? Yes, she is. But Scorpio is the sign of her…

With the Sun and Mercury already in Libra and Saturn moving in to join the action on 30 October, 2009 there is a growing emphasis on this sign and its energy at this time. But first let’s take a look at how Venus fares when she’s in Libra. Since she’s the natural ruler of Libra, Venus does rather well in this sign and so do people who are born with this placement. Venus, along with Jupiter, is considered a ‘benefic” in astrology. Translated into simple English it means Venus exerts a favorable influence and bestows the gifts of beauty and…

• Haha, Very Funny… The Mercury Return

  Shannon

  28 Oct 2009 | 11:23 am

  Photo by Nate Ritter (cc) I’ve been an irrepressible joke-maker today… after a friend commented on it, I of course joked that I should go read my horoscope. Which I did… like Molly, I keep a subscription to astro.com’s Personal Daily Forecast, since my own things sneak up on me. And lo, my Mercury return arrived late last night! I’ve never thought of it as a particularly witty moment before, but if my brain is turned up to 11 right now, that would be a natural side effect. So what exactly does a Mercury return entail, anyway? Any planet has a return when it comes…

• Friday Time Clock #2

  23 Oct 2009 | 5:49 pm

  Photo by Peter Rinblad (cc) Over at The Fluent Self, Havi has a weekly ritual that has become known as the Friday Chicken, a little check-in moment that started about a year ago. After years in the kitchen, and because we’re all about the march of time here, the idea of punching a time clock seemed like a good mental image to me. So here we go. The good stuff this week: I’ve been cooking at home more, and I’ve been getting to cook for my friends more too, which is terrific. I love entertaining. Those domestic spreads you see in lifestyle magazines and wedding rags, with the…

• Uranus in the 4th: Here Comes the Moving Van… Again

  Shannon

  19 Oct 2009 | 8:53 pm

  Photo by Ross Berteig (cc) I have almost no water in my chart, but I have a Uranus-Lilith-Venus conjunction (along with Juno and Vesta, for you asteroid junkies out there) in my fourth house. The fourth house is, among a few other things, all about your home, how you feel about it, and how you tend to behave there. Uranus in the fourth often brings unusual taste in furnishings, a love of home electronics or gadgetry, and can represent frequent moves in early life. For me? Check, check, and check. I never know how to answer people when they ask me where I’m from; nowadays it just depends…

• Hidden in Plain Sight

  Shannon

  18 Oct 2009 | 10:33 pm

  Photo by Michel Villeneuve (cc) I’ve been studying astrology for almost fifteen years now, and it still amazes me how I can find new things in my chart all the time. There’s definitely a subjective angle to analyzing your own information, because I’ve overlooked or trivialized countless things that would be patently obvious to me in someone else’s chart. My most recent example is a biggie: it never sunk in for me that I have a big fat yod, with my Sun-Jupiter in the 3rd and Neptune in the 5th pointing out that tenth house Chiron. More Neptune work to integrate, it…

• Libra New Moon – Domino Effect

  Shannon

  17 Oct 2009 | 2:33 pm

  Photo by Ananth (cc) The Libra new moon is setting up shop right on top of my natal Pluto and then rolls on to my Mercury, to top off my week of reckoning. World, forgive me if I’m impatient with frivolous crap right now, but if there’s big stuff going on? I’m all ears. I have a special craving for getting at the truth behind the veneer right now so hopefully it will lead to some interesting conversations. I’m in a special kind of “I don’t care what you normally tell people, I can see through that so why don’t you tell me what’s really going…

• Aries Botero, Valentino and Red

  Mark Shulgasser

  28 Oct 2009 | 7:01 pm

  Fernando Botero, (b. April 19, 1932): Femme habillee par Valentino. Aries painter Botero is not afeard of red, for sure, tho I wouldn't say it plays a special role in his work. But he was attracted by fashion designer Valentino's great romance with the color. Valentino is a Taurus, but the Sun is his sole Taurus planet, while his chart's outstanding element is a powerful triple conjunction in Aries of Mars, Mercury and Uranus (all trine Jupiter), which he shares with Botero, who was born only three weeks before him.

• Aquarius and the Rainbow

  Mark Shulgasser

  21 Oct 2009 | 12:54 pm

  Stellar spectra Color associations to the signs and  planets are not rigidly assigned, and are based on subjective psychological affinities. Some are no-brainers, like red being associated with the planet Mars and the sign Aries (which is “ruled” by Mars)  -- the war god evokes blood, anger (seeing red), the red planet, even the iron (oxide) of weaponry, which is also the source of blood’s color. Then the Moon and its associated sign, Cancer the Crab, suggests silver or white, also the moonlike pearl and nacre, esthetic essence of the crustacean. Some signs have…

• Freud: Taurus or Pisces?

  Mark Shulgasser

  16 Oct 2009 | 9:57 pm

  For some time I’ve been pursuing the idea that Freud’s correct birthday was March 6, not May 6. The almost universally accepted May 6, 1856 date (6:30 pm, Freiberg, Moravia, now Pribor, Czech Republic) appears authoritatively in the first sentence of Freud’s official biography, written by his close associate and disciple, Ernest Jones. Yet that very sentence bears a footnote (deleted from the abridged edition) joking that the actual birth may have taken place two months earlier, seven months after the wedding of Freud’s parents. Freud wrote a book called Jokes and…

• Conglomeration of Gemini nonsense.

  Mark Shulgasser

  10 Oct 2009 | 1:24 pm

  After long absence, and to dispel the heavy atmosphere I’ve breathed, something a little silly perhaps, arbitrary and unchronological, entirely consequent on the vagaries of TCM programming. This goes back to Gemini, the Hands, and the Taurus cusp. Remember the beloved, underutilized Robert Montgomery? Born exactly on the cusp of Taurus and Gemini (Sun was at 29d30’ Taurus at noon on his time-unknown birthday), this is arguably his best film. On the poster his dense, puzzled face contemplates his murderous digits, detached, vaguely disturbed,  with a glimmer of dawning…

• Donald Evans, Virgo artist #9

  Mark Shulgasser

  29 Sep 2009 | 3:30 pm

  DONALD EVANS (b. 28 August 1945, Morristown NJ, 6:40 am) was another artist born under Virgo whose work is organized by the Grid. The postage stamp and its perforated sheets provided the rectilinear, regulated containment for Evans’s fantasy. He created the postal art for scores of imaginary nations;  peculiarly distinctive, whimsical, exotic or banal, as philatelic images tend to be, executed with microscopic precision and tongue in cheek.  Virgonian imagery predominates: catalogues of flora and fauna, natural landscapes, textiles, crafts, alphanumerics, and daily minutiae.

• Everything Must Change: Week Of November 2

  1 Nov 2009 | 6:09 pm

  Welcome to a tense week on Planet Earth. It begins with a potent Full Moon in Taurus. Full Moons can set your teeth on edge to begin with, but this moon has the added weight of being a bit of a monster. Kind of appropriate on the heels of Halloween, dontcha think?This Full Moon sets up a planetary configuration known as a fixed grand square. Sun and Moon are opposite each other in the skies (which results in a full moon), and are at square angles with Mars and Jupiter, also opposing each other. The tension created by a Grand Cross is pretty strong and will challenge each of us as demands come…

• Mantra for Week of October 5

  4 Oct 2009 | 5:33 am

  This week Neptune retrograde (spiritual awareness) is the release point of a destiny-like configuration known as a yod (or Finger of God). Mercury in Virgo (the pen) and Mars in Cancer (the sword) are part of the configuration, resulting in a drive to mental and physical battle for the underdog. The mantra for this week’s energy:“I will not cease from mental fight, nor shall my sword sleep in my hand ‘til we have built Jerusalem on England’s green and pleasant land.”(William Blake, "And did those feet in ancient time")Namaste.Michelle Piller, Starstruck Astrology

• Astro-Curious?

  20 Jul 2009 | 7:29 am

  Are you a student of astrology? If so, you’ll know that one of the more challenging aspects of astrology lies in understanding how the planets relate to each other. When planets are in dialogue with each other (or forming specific angles) they are said to be in aspect together. As with human conversations, some planetary dialogues are smooth, others less so. At any rate, I’ve just read a new book by astrologer Matthew Currie entitled Conquer The Universe With Astrology Book One: Aspects! In keeping with Matthew’s style, this is a really witty and easy to comprehend explanation of the…

• Solstice and New Moon in Cancer

  21 Jun 2009 | 1:20 pm

  Happy Solstice! The Sun has just moved into Cancer, resulting in the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere. A classic song from Hair keeps repeating its emphatic chorus in my mind: “Let the Sunshine in!” Of course, Hair is an unapologetic romp through some of the ideals of the coming Aquarian Age. And it plays on my mind in resonance with the cluster of divine energy from Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune (each retrograde) in Aquarius. This heavenly trio trines the Sun and Moon, bringing a sense of renewal. Venus and Mars, the cosmic lovers, are paired in Venus’ luxurious home…

  Observation was one of the key lessons one learns when trying to compete in the world of fashion or fashion illustration, as understanding the trends gives one a head start to success.  The ability to observe also seems to me comes in very handy when one wants to write books or articles, as the need to understand human nature and to be able to describe it in an interesting manner to the reader is of prime importance.  Thinking about it in further details I realized observation in any occupation is of vital importance if one is to be successful.  The problem to me is that observation is not…

• “The Second House of Finance Equals the Gate of Hades”

  linknjoe

  1 Nov 2009 | 3:27 pm

  Being Asian I have a tremendous respect for my elders and their wisdom, especially the ancient wise men of old who recorded their knowledge that we may have use of it.  I also find it difficult to throw out the old ways just because they seem antiquated in our modern world.  Although I am a modern astrologer I love reading the older writings to understand how we came to the set of rules that we delineate a chart with.  What I have found with our art is that we have kept all the rules, but have forgotten the reasons how we came to them.  The other day I started to reread “Ancient…

• “Pluto in the Second Solar Return House is to Rediscover Oneself”

  linknjoe

  30 Oct 2009 | 4:48 am

  Some may think I am concentrating on the second house because of the financial downturn we are experiencing, but it is one of the reasons and not the only one.  I feel that the ascendant expresses what we want others to see us, as individuals, but that the second house expresses who we really are.  For what we process in the material world is the reason why we surround ourselves with these things.  Our need with Pluto in the second should not be to impress others with our worldly riches, but to surround ourselves with the things we love, to reinforce who we really are.  Pluto in the Solar…

  linknjoe

  On November 2nd 2009, a full moon at 11 degrees of Taurus beams its moonlight on the earth to brighten our path in the darkness of night.  The brightness of the full moon is a metaphor to our wishes and desires we planted in the New Moon period, and is growing clearer and brighter each day without any hidden agendas until it becomes full.  The materialization of our wishes and hopes which reflects us and our needs is similar to the full moon which reflects the energy and thoughts of the Sun.  With the full moon in Taurus the need to have or possess, to receive, to preserve, and to enjoy is…

  The three most asked questions an astrologer receives, deals with money, love, and career.  Money is asked more as an evaluation of accomplishments and self worth, unless the individual is going through financial difficulties.  Even during a financial downturn, having the ability to use your money wisely and keeping it, is a tell tail sign to others of your accomplishments.  The old saying “Money Talks” is evident with Mercury in the Second Solar Return house which is associated with financial planning and monetary decisions for the coming year.  Mercury is the messenger, the…
