Ventilate The Monument
January 14th As Venus squared Uranus yesterday the Sun squares him today. The effect as well as the influence of Uranus is completely...


Unprecidented
January 7th Middle Scorpio takes up heavy residence, as the Greater benefic and the lesser Malefic have come to share their significations and work as one. Robert Hand refers to this combination in transits as “fortunate action”, and describes it as generally lucky, exuberant, an influx and expansion of energy, great for physical activities and exertions (even and especially the labor of birth); the other side of this conjunction presents the potential


No Turning Back
December 31st We reach the final day of the calendar year with Venus very combust, and a heavily waxing Moon opposite Mercury from the Messenger’s sign as the Sun progresses into the second decan of Capricorn. Our ideas of art and beauty, romance and love, sensuality and pleasure are being put into the furnace, and all that is impure is burned away, leaving only the most authentic materials, those of concrete value, those most precious, that which will la


Strict Noel
December 24th The activity of the 25th really dominates the week, and everything Capricornian, as the Sun, Saturn and Venus will be, but first on the 24th we receive the Moon conjunct Neptune square Mercury. This will be Mercury newly direct but still languishing in detriment, confusing and mixing intuition and instinct with fact and data, squaring a Moon growing in emphatic energy that has just bumped up against Neptune’s watery fantasies of universal d


Holiday Tauroctony
December 17th December 17th marks the occasion of Roman Saturnalia, and more than most years, there is particular cause for the reversal of wisdom and the opening of license here as the period we are headed into is one more Saturnian usual as planets seem to proceed into the Cold and Dry one’s time with ice skater synchronization. Even the word is befitting. The organization of being in sync with Saturn, old Kronos himself— who rules over time, and so i


Don't Lose Your Head
As the Moon enters her last quarter phase there is typically a notable downshift in energy, or at least in the inertia of events. Strands of stories slip away or seem to wrap up, and more than engage we tend to reflect; a digestion of what has occurred. This may be an atypically more physical or energetically aggressive wane, as Mars has recently ingressed into Scorpio, where he will remain in rulership until January 26th. Particularly, the early degrees of Scorpio are exc


Wall and Wormhole
DECEMBER 3RD The Moon swells to fullness just before 11am (EST) on December 3rd in a complicated array of intertwining rulership relations. All of the planets in Sagittarius, (Venus, Saturn conjunct retrograde Mercury and the Sun), while the Moon opposes he Sun from Gemini, which our retrograde Mercury rules, while the luminaries square Neptune in Jupiter’s sign of Pisces, Jupiter being trine Neptune from Scorpio, and it is this Scorpionic Jupiter that ho


Performance
NOVEMBER 26TH The week dawns with an upshift in energy, as the Moon moves into her second quarter phase in pisces, conjoining Neptune shortly after. This may touch upon a bodily or emotional fantasy, maybe even a heavy dream you awake from that laces the mood of your life, like young Alex’s moloko plus. The investigative or others that are looking for a jump on what’s to come might try to keep the essence of whatever emerges into the lunar faculties held


Tantric Test
NOVEMBER 19TH With yesterdays New Moon opening the aperture of the sky blotter to darkness, and if clouds scatter, glimpses at the more wintery stellar arcs, many may be amidst inceptions and spells of accumulation par usual; although, Scorpio lunations tend toward over-indulgences and impermanence; last week’s perpetual impermanence falls to this weeks lunar impermanence; that which quickly changes, flows in and than out with the tide. Multiple actions, and non-ac


Binge & Purge
Electric snakes wriggle in the air pockets and cracks of degradation, the firm lead skeleton and the cold concrete like shale beneath the fingernails of a mammoth statue, seemingly inert, but not inanimate; it merely exists in much more yawning tides of time, and moves so slowly to us it seems solid and still. The serpentine undulations growing frenetic, mounting in charge until plasmic pressure shakes the sculpture, vibrates the architecture, the crystal lattice fractalizes
