The Challenge of the Super Friends
Wow! What a weekend? One of the things that I am the most amazed/amused by is how astrological aspects affect those of us (in this case MOI) that should know better. I knew that Mercury squared Uranus on Saturday. I also knew that Mercury would oppose Pluto on Sunday. I knew just how tough the [...]
It’s True — I Am Crushing On a Girl!
Yep. You read that right! I, the openly gay astrologer/tarotist/psychic/kabbalist am totally smitten with a girl. How can this even be possible? When I first came across her, I didn’t really care for her. Oh, of course, she was cute and sassy (which is always a plus for any red blooded gay man), but a [...]
Mercury Hangs Out With Daddy Jupiter and Uncle Neptune
The planetary weather player for Friday is once again quick witted Mercury. As he continues to move through the emotional waters of Cancer he is going to trine mystical Neptune and then sextile beneficent Jupiter. After the intensive energy of the Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius that occurred earlier in the week, this combination of harmonious [...]
Mercury Moves Into Water Cancer
On Thursday, mercurial Mercury will move out of his own sign of Gemini and into the emotional waters of Cancer. Whenever, Mercury is in the water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, or Pisces) our ability to perceive, feel, and connect to the instinctual world is heightened. Mercury is like a child that has to test and experiment [...]
It’s Not About The Weiner
Attempting to write about the general cosmic energy of an eclipse is challenging at best, but sometimes the media works perfectly in providing material that expresses the eclipse energy in a profound and universal way. I am sure that everyone has heard about the scandal involving U.S. Congressman Anthony Weiner (D-NY). The report of his [...]
Do You Control Your Emotions Or Do Your Emotions Control You?
One of the first ideas you learn in Kabbalah is to question everything. This is an alien concept to most religious systems (and I include many metaphysical systems in this category as well), which tend to learn towards blind faith and complete adherence to a perceived “higher” authority. Kabbalists take concepts out of the practical [...]
Did You Learn Your Saturn Retrograde Lesson?
Cosmic Weather Forecast: June 12, 2011 The key astrological weather planet for Sunday is the planet Saturn as it changes directions in the sign of Libra. Saturn rules structures, boundaries, limitations, and creates rules and regulations in order for us to exist in a sophisticated (the definition of sophisticated can be questioned) modern society. Since [...]
The Kabbalistic Secrets of Candle Magic
I did not intend to restart the “Cosmic Weather Forecast” in the portion that involves candles and lighting the candelabra, yet I was rather amused that this (Beha’lota’cha) is the Kabbalistic portion of the week. I suppose being the co-creator of a magical candle line the understanding of how candle magic works is an important [...]
The 12 Days of Yule: Day 12 — Everything That Has a Beginning Comes To an End
Can you believe it? We are on the 12th Day of the 12 Days of Yule! What an interesting and amazing journey it has been. I first want to thank all of the people that participated, and I hope that this has been a rather insightful experience for you. Understanding the workings of our unconscious [...]
The 12 Days of Yule: Day 11 — Honor Thy Inner Parent With Reservation
Are we a culture that just does not like authority? Or has authority got it wrong so many times that we have an innate tendency to view them negatively? These were questions that came up for me as I was preparing for Day 11 of the 12 Days of Yule. It appears that many views [...]
