The Moon entered the last quarter phase at 2:18 this morning in the 7th Lunar Mansion of Aldirah or Alarzach. Agrippa and the Picitrix agree that it ‘confereth gain and friendship, it’s profitable to lovers, feareth flies and destroyeth magisteries.’ Agrippa calls it the Arm Of Gemini and the Picitrix claims it portends safe travel by sea. I was awake at the time, lying in a hypnogogic state, my mind filling with jet black foam, like sodden fallout ash or volcano lather, t

With last night’s lunation we are officially past the eclipse period, where the Moon is again the Moon and the Sun the Sun, in theory. Coincidentally, the Full Moon occurred conjunct Neptune in Pisces opposite the Sun in middle Virgo. Our intellects up to their elbows in details looked into our emotions and streams of consciousness to find tidal surges of watery hallucination and Dionysian distraction; enchantment, music and pornography flooding into our projects, The tides a

"There comes a point when a dream becomes reality and reality becomes a dream". -Frances Farmer Mars and Mercury’s ongoing tango has been evident in the rather overt string of car crashes throughout the latter eclipse period with Mercury retrograde up until now and heading toward a bullseye backwards strike as the two conjunct on the eclipse degree, like a dart unable to spik

So, we had an eclipse, what happened? Mercury plans to turn direct on the eclipse degree conjunct Mars on September 5th and it is more than likely that there will be a a detailed report coming to our mailboxes, perhaps growing in length as the fax machine disgorges more perforated paper over the course of Mercury’s second ingress into Virgo, passing Regulus’ superbright worklight where the guts of the eclipse sight are being scanned. Do we then gain some insight into this e

This is it. This week takes us right through to the Total Solar Eclipse on the North Node, which instigates hot ambition around the point it touches, in this case the third decan of Leo right near the star Regulus. A highly visible and high profile standing up for what is considered most authentic and virtuous, the fight to sustain embodied spirit against odds that threaten it. Venus in Cancer opposite Pluto today sees us leaving our lifelong projects to gather around summ

We are now in it. The Full Moon we just had was the South Node Lunar eclipse in Aquarius and the New Moon we are waning towards is the North Node Total Solar Eclipse in Leo. On Monday the light of receptivity glowing up forth from our overfilling chalices that spill through the cracks in the floor that serpents and portal-worms enwrap and writhe in rings around, the syrup coating their skin and scales, carried below and away from here as they dive. There is no way to retri

The largest, most slowly applying and most partile aspect of the week is the Jupiter in Libra Square to Pluto in Capricorn. You may feel like things are really coming into great balance in your life, riding the upswing of last weeks positive configurations, such as the Mercury ingress into rulership conjunction with Regulus, our Messenger sorting the blood cells that stream out of the Lion’s Heart, pumping rubies and Clear Quartz pieces into the cockles and purse pockets of

After a week of the Moon swinging through aspects with the outer planets we enter a period of major changes for five of the Traditional seven, occurring in an obstacle course fashion, daemonic baton passings and ‘climb the underside of a rolling suspended barrel over a wave pool’ style spectator spoof sport TV showcase, that happens to affect all strata of our lives. The stakes are high and the action is fast, like a week long synthesized sequence that keys the door openings

Now that we have passed the Full Moon conjunct Pluto in Capricorn and the Pluto opposition to the Sun in Cancer that followed, we may lift our heads as the black fluid drains from the vase and inspect the flower stems that were obscured by the opacity, the chthonic squid ink draining out newly pierced port holes, the bilge spewing out excretory orifices rather than returning to the heart via veins. We now have leave to flee the House Harkonnen dinner party that was so painfu

Tonight at 8:10 pm, during the Moon’s hour, Venus waltzes into Gemini with the Moon nearly opposite in the final degrees of Scorpio. Luna achieves direct signaling position in 0 Sagittarius just after 1 am, in her hour once more, out of the sulfur cave of intoxicating primordial fluid and into the fire of imagination. The waxing Moon in sight of a trickster Venus intent on playing artful mindgames might keep some people up tonight, or at least lace their dreams with the int
