Sensitivity

The word sensitive has two connotative meanings. Consider the following two sentences: My new camera is so sensitive, I can take pictures in the dark without a flash. My girlfriend is so sensitive right now, everything I say sets her off. When someone is sensitive, they have an acute ability to perceive. When they are… Continue reading Sensitivity

A Marriage vs A Sacred Marriage

Those who oppose the idea of gay marriage state the claim that marriage is (and only is) a union between "a man and a woman". They then claim that marriage is sacred and must be preserved. I hate to tell you this if you don’t already know, but a Sacred Marriage has never been something… Continue reading A Marriage vs A Sacred Marriage

Mercury Retrograde in Air

It has been a long time since Mercury has gone backward in an Air sign. The last time was September 2009 when Mercury retraced his steps in Libra. Mercury works best with Air. Air is not just about thought, but also communication. In response to a friend's Facebook post this morning, I found myself writing… Continue reading Mercury Retrograde in Air

1 Step Forward…2 Steps Back

Once again, we find ourselves with Mercury creeping backward in a water sign. Thankfully, we only have six days of it this time. The remainder of the retrograde will be in the air sign Aquarius. Eleven months ago, Mercury stationed direct and ended his retrograde period at 5o Pisces 38’ on March 17, 2013. This… Continue reading 1 Step Forward…2 Steps Back

Alignment and Synchronization

The other day, I received a message from spirit about Astrology: Astrology is not just about space (alignment); it is also about time (synchronization). Two planets that align are related by their position, but two events that occur close together in time are just as significantly related via synchronization…even if they are unrelated by position.… Continue reading Alignment and Synchronization

Venus Station Direct

Less than 5 hours from when I’m writing this, Venus will station direct ending her retrograde cycle this time around. Simultaneously, the moon is just about to become visible as her new cycle gets going after yesterday’s Aquarius new moon. Venus Retrograde started at the onset of the season. We are still 4 days shy… Continue reading Venus Station Direct

Remembering Good Times

Apparent retrograde motion is caused by one of two very similar astronomical occurrences. Mercury and Venus appear to go backward when they overtake the earth. Their orbits are smaller and their speed faster than the earth, thus they pass us by periodically. They are closest to the earth at those times. With the outer planets,… Continue reading Remembering Good Times

Looking Forward…Looking Back

At one point this morning, it occurred to me to consider 2013 and 2014 from a broad perspective. In the past few days, I’ve seen a few Facebook posts stating appreciation for 2013. Some were heartfelt while others felt like genuine attempts. If I had written one of my own, it would have been a… Continue reading Looking Forward…Looking Back

Ghosts of Christmas Past

To my preferences, yesterday was one of the most beautiful autumn days one can experience. In some ways, the day had tinges of all four seasons. The morning was crisp—not quite wintry, but certainly fallish; the midday sun was warm allowing one to wander about without sleeves; and the sunset was nearly as early as… Continue reading Ghosts of Christmas Past

A True Sadge

Yesterday, my yoga teacher stated an interesting observation. This is more or less what she said: If you have vices, they will be tested in December. More than any other time of year, there is a tendency to over-indulge: over-eating, drinking too much, spending too much money. If you have family issues, they expand in… Continue reading A True Sadge
