This is a funny lost object horary because I did actually get some of my property back almost immediately, and then the rest turned up more than a week later. I bought six sets of earbuds on sale before Christmas. It was a very good sale, and I thought I might use them for stocking [...]

The days are long but the years are short. It’s been about a year since I blogged about astrology, and nearly three years since I began the natal course with John Frawley. Life’s an eyeblink or a slog, depending on the day. There are so many astro bloggers out there. I think representation for traditional [...]

Lady Gaga’s birthday is coming up on March 28th. But nobody seems able to get her birth time – at least, not until a 9:30am time showed up recently for her on Astrotheme.fr. Where did this time come from? Astrotheme didn’t publish a data source or even a Rodden rating. So I emailed them on [...]

My head’s been full of thoughts since attending Thursday’s research symposium at the NCGR Geocosmic Alchemy II conference in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Chris Brennan did a terrific job organizing what turned out to be a day-long accelerated history lesson, with astro experts taking us from Mesopotamian astrology up to the present day, making stops in Vedic, [...]

There’s more to look at in Grand Central Station than your train timetable. Mosaic artist Ellen Driscoll created cosmically-inspired art for the passageways of Grand Central Terminal North, featuring stories of the heavens and the underworld from five continents. I love these great horoscope wheels – the larger one features the 12 zodiac glyphs around [...]

Wherever you are, whenever you read this, at whatever level you practice or study, whenever you have time, I would love to know: Why do you practice astrology? What’s your goal? How do you know when a reading has been successful?
