Astrology is Freedom
It must be. Think about what goes into the modern identity. The religious dogmas that promote suppression, self loathing, and fear; the patriotism and nationalism that demand blind obedience (and sometimes, hatred); the normalized greed and ruthlessness that are byproducts of consumerism; the inherited Cold War propaganda passed down through the generations; the cultural hegemony …
Across the Universe
A strange thing happened to me on March 7, 2025. For a Friday, there was not anything necessarily spectacular about it other than it was the end of the work week. I was busy. Had a handful errands to wrap up and variety of tasks related to my astrological work that needed to be completed. …
The Great Fire of Chicago
Astrological timing can be mind-blowing and really make one question the nature of reality. What I am talking about is the precision between the manifestation of an event and the planetary movements that correlated with it. Sometimes that correlation is literally within minutes of each other. There is a great example of this. Are you …
Bohemian Rhapsody
“Bohemian Rhapsody” is the epic rock opera masterpiece by the rock band, Queen. At the time, this song redefined what a rock song could be. It is not only on most short lists of greatest rock songs ever created, but also the short lists of greatest songs ever created, period. For a song with this …
The Rise of Modernity, the Arrival of Uranus & the 4th Turning Crisis
Believe it or not, there are historians out here doing astrological work without knowing they are doing it. Back in 1997, William Strauss and Neil Howe published a book entitled, “The Fourth Turning: An American Prophecy.” Its basic premise is that modern history moves in specific cycles called saeculums, which represent 80 - 100 years …

Jehovah’s Witness – Abuse & Armageddon
Jehovah’s Witness is a unique, interesting, and somewhat extreme branch of Christianity. It is well known for its active door to door proselytizing and recruitment efforts as well as its objection to celebrating holidays and birthdays, declining military service and blood transfusions and not recognizing national anthems. The organization also takes much pride in an …
The Rebel
(1)It is somewhat fashionable to rebel against things in this day and age. As a concept, revolution is so ubiquitous that its meaning has become muddled and shallow. All too often, it is just a counter reaction to a prior rebellion and a tool in defense of an originally established structure. In some ways, it …
Radically Foreign & Existentially Rebellious
I spend so much time focusing attention on the invisible world of energy and connection that I sometimes take it for granted how that sensitivity grows over time. The “feel” of the ineffable within and without. But in parallel with this concentration, I also notice the divide with those who are completely ignorant to this …

Super Human: Generational Archetypes in the 1st House
Our natal charts provide insight into our passions. Our abilities. Talents. But it also shows something else: How the collective archetypal energies of humanity itself are hardwired and embedded into a personality. In other words, we’re referring to power of the outer planets. The dynamics that define entire generations. “In retrospect, the discoveries of Uranus, …

What’s the DEAL…with the 3rd House?
The TV show “Seinfeld” was a show about “nothing”. At least, that’s how it has been remembered. And while this label has been personally rejected by Jerry Seinfeld, this reputation has persisted because the show never tried to hide the fact that it was a bit shallow.In fact, it reveled in it.The show was the …

Between 2011-2014, a small subset of babies were born with a generational Uranus-Pluto square in their charts. 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. They create transformation through destabilization and rebellion. The potential for violence and …
