October 22nd As Venus enters the second face of Libra on the 22nd the themes shift from justice, fairness and accord to bonds between people and unions of all kind. Two hands up-stretch into airy aether, maybe backed by a display of charming clouds, and are lashed with white satin ribbon, or smooth linen cord, wrapped, the hands are bound, and also the wills of those who clasp palms and intwine fingers. Regardless of the pairs familiarity, this is close proximity,

Jupiter has passed into Scorpio for the next 13 months. The planet of coherence, wisdom, philosophy, mind broadening, and higher principles grows an exaggerated set of salivating jaws that hunger for spiritual growth and expansion of knowledge as a cunning wolf does for its prey or Zeus would for coitus. This is the energy that has many succumbing to appetites for magical practice and spiritual devotion, the burning need to be one with god or the higher, noble and perfected

Today’s big event, my dears, is of course the burgeoning full Moon in Aries which I wrote about at the end of last week’s forecast, for a full description refer back, but shall I say, it may prove a hot time in the old town, as sexual relations, relationship dynamics, impulsive moods, strong bonds and individual fire are on the menu, in opposition but giving and taking at the same time. With Venus conjoining Mars in Virgo it may be hard to tell who is detailing the program a

{Today is host to a dramatic and normally history etching opposition of Jupiter in Libra and Uranus in Aries, of which I wrote about much last week, so if curious refer back, for now we look forward into the aspects to come} Mercury enters Libra on the 29th, where the planet that can see two in one and one in two becomes the jongleur, as this is a Venusian sign, lutes are strummed, balls are tossed in balance and the conversation of the kingdom is contorted vocally

2, 373 years ago today Alexander the Great was born in Pella, Northern Greece and central Macedon. His historical existence is of course, of great importance, hence his common moniker, but furthermore his romantic and magical connotations are of particular concern to the themes of these forecasts. It was he who founded Alexandria in his own name and manifested a legacy that we directly refer to as the 200-300 year Hellenistic period. This is the cultural interchange which

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
