In yesterday’s post (Venus and Mars; Dogs and Cats), I discussed the Venus-Mars conjunction. A conjunction occurs when two (or more) planets appear next to each other in the sky from our vantage. They needn’t be anywhere near each other in reality. For example, Venus is still quite close to earth. She just overtook us… Continue reading Virgo Pisces Opposition

Design and Implementation
In thirty days—on September 17, 2015 at 9:49 pm CDT—Saturn will ingress the sign of Sagittarius, where it will remain until December 19, 2017. Less than nine hours before that happens, Mercury will station retrograde at 15 Libra 55. Noticing this synchronicity, I decided to explore the Gemini and Virgo perspectives of this event. That’s when… Continue reading Design and Implementation
Holding Back the Sea
Once each year, the Earth passes directly between the two most gravitational bodies in our solar system: the sun and Jupiter. This happens today just past high noon Central Standard Time. Given the time of the occurrence, the opposition between these massive bodies occurs along the vertical axis of the chart. In my opinion, the… Continue reading Holding Back the Sea
Pisces Full Moon
Pisces is the sign of compassionate love, and the Pisces Full Moon chart has that theme written all over it. Here in La Mesa, CA, the moon rises just minutes after being exactly full. It’s less than 30 degrees from perigee, so the moon will appear larger than average. Look for the rising full moon… Continue reading Pisces Full Moon
Kites-a-Flyin’
As the month of August comes to a close, it is time for me to make a bit of a confession to you. I like to do this every now and again, and it has been a while. I’m sure there are many of you reading this that are fairly new to my blog, so… Continue reading Kites-a-Flyin’
Dogs and Cats
The Dog Days of Summer are just about over—at least unofficially. What are officially over (at 6:01 pm CDT this evening) are the lazy, loungy, fixed-fire days of Leo. The term “Dog Days” come from an association with the rising of Sirius within the Canis Major (“big dog”) constellation. Had a different person been looking… Continue reading Dogs and Cats
A Question of Identity
As you may know, Mercury stations direct on Sunday, March 17, 2013 at 3:04 CDT. This occurs at 5 degrees 38 arc-minutes Pisces. As a result of the activity surrounding me, I realized something today. This Mercury station makes nearly an exact square to my natal sun (at 5 degrees 24 arc-minutes Gemini). Within the… Continue reading A Question of Identity
2013 / 6
In numerology, year 2013 is said to be a Universal Year of 6 because 2+0+1+3 adds to 6. Six is one of the three magical single digit numbers. One way to understand the meaning of six is to compare it to its predecessors. 1, 2, 3, and 4 are the basic counting numbers. They are… Continue reading 2013 / 6
Magic Triangle
It is the month of August in the year 2012. Temps are warm or downright hot; the Olympics are in full swing; many are traveling in lands far from home. It’s summer time! Now the Olympics might be keeping you in at night, but if you have been out, have you noticed the big triangle… Continue reading Magic Triangle
Astrology Report from the Mud
I’ve been thinking about this all week. It started as a joke, but then, at one point, wasn’t very funny. Now that I’m on the other side, I thought I would write about it. As you know, I am writing my third book with a backbone of Astrology. I am basically allowing Astrology to inspire… Continue reading Astrology Report from the Mud
