Retrograde periods take us back. It is simply human nature that resists. When you consider the motions in the universe, you find them to be circular and cyclical, not linear. In my youth, and in my adulthood, if I’ve heard it once, I’ve heard it a thousand times, "Do it right the first time." But… Continue reading 11, 11, 11, 11

11.22
Dear Stargazers - I only have a limited amount of time to blog write today, so I'm going to keep this short. But I do have a few astrological tidbits for you to think about. As of early this morning, Mercury whizzed past the back side of the sun. That means that astrologically speaking, Mercury… Continue reading 11.22
Last Full Moon of 2012
Getting started is often a tough thing to do. Starting a book, a blog post, a lawn mower, a Monday morning, a new diet and/or exercise routine - these are all examples. Today is 12/28 and although we are still within the end of our calendar year, this is the start of a grand era… Continue reading Last Full Moon of 2012
Saturn and Service
Earlier this month on October 6th, I wrote my first full horoscope called A Rose Among Thorns. While I enjoy writing horoscopes, it is a lot of work to intuit 12 different perspectives for an ever-shifting chart.

A Fish out of Water
Let’s say you could have a telepathic conversation with a fish. What might that be like? You: Hey fish! How’s the water today? Fish: Water? What water? You: The water you’re swimming in. Fish: I’m not swimming in water. You’re the one that’s swimming - in that ether stuff. You: Don’t be silly fish. I… Continue reading A Fish out of Water

Ships Passing in the Night
Astrology is all about angles. Whether reading charts or conjuring up horoscopes, an Astrologer cannot escape angles, numbers, geometry, and math. Thankfully, some things are easier to see than others. The most obvious and conspicuous aspects are conjunctions. That's because the planets in question pass right by each other. Since a chart is an approximation,… Continue reading Ships Passing in the Night
The Prosaic Dreamer
The Journey of the Fool is from where you are to where you want to be. So knowing where you are and knowing where you want to be is helpful. But knowing where you really are is sometimes more difficult than we think. And that’s where Neptune can help. Right now, and for the next… Continue reading The Prosaic Dreamer
Pluto
[Updated August 2021. Essay on Tarot: XVII The Star] The Star represents guidance and connection with one's Higher Self, the Universe, or God/Goddess/All-That-Is. The Biblical story of the Three Wise Men following the Star of Bethlehem is a clear example of this idea. Following one's guiding light, can be experienced in more than one way.… Continue reading Pluto
