The last time these two planets formed a major aspect with each other was their conjunction back in the 1960’s.Uranus and Pluto are signatures for revolution.

Aries gets a bad rap. I have noticed that many online memes and descriptions of Aries tend to characterize this sign quality as some type of angry, hot tempered, rage beast. This superficial caricature is so prevalent that I wonder if this will convince people to be apprehensive when encountering anyone with a preponderance of …
For a number of reasons, Johnny Cash was a typical Pisces. Artistic, empathetic, victimized and tortured (sometimes by his own actions), romantic, addicted and introverted. Most significantly, Cash was a musical storyteller and vividly expressed some of the core qualities of this sign in two songs, “The Man in Black” and “Hurt”. With the “Man …
The 5th house is the house of good times. It is the area of life that represents parties, fun, play, romance, games and hobbies.

In honor of Scorpio season, it is probably fitting to quickly review one of the most Scorpionic movies in recent history: The Revenant. (Spoiler Alert Ahead) The Revenant is a harsh movie of survival and revenge. It is based upon the true story of a man (Hugh Glass) who was almost mauled to death by …
Vincent Van Gogh’s, “The Starry Night” needs little introduction. It is one of the most recognizable paintings of the past century. In fact, this artistic work is so revered and loved that even the detailed history surrounding its inception is well documented.

This has been bugging me for awhile Below is the bi-wheel chart for Jim Morrison's natal and the transits for the day he was pardoned for a couple of misdemeanor convictions from 1969 (spoiler alert: Jim was drunk and pulled out his thing at a concert). The transits are fairly straight forward: Transit Saturn partile …
For those of you who aren’t aware, a funny little quirk has been discovered over the past couple decades. For some reason, when Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon” (DSOTM) album is played alongside the movie, “The Wizard of Oz” (WOO), the music provides a surprising soundtrack that appears to coincide with the major …
On August 11, 2014 we learned the horrible news that Robin Williams had taken his own life. The surreal juxtaposition of a comedian and artist with an almost boundless supply of wild, creative energy with that of a severely depressed, suffering and manic individual are almost impossible to reconcile, but these layers can exist within …

About half of my life has been dedicated to the study and practice of astrology. Throughout this journey I can isolate a general timeframe when it became very serious.

Decades ago I was admitted into the hospital for a couple weeks due to an inflamed spleen. It had a swollen so large that it was putting pressure on my back and causing a degree of pain so intense that it required a morphine drip to help manage. One day after falling asleep, I awoke …
