This is no light inquiry, nor is it something one should take too literally. Astrology is a symbolic language that speaks in metaphor and meaning, it isn’t concrete certainties. In astrology, parents are traditionally represented by certain houses and planetary...
It’s time to dip into the mystical waters—or in this case, the absence thereof. When we say someone is “water void” in astrology, we mean their natal chart is missing planets in water signs—Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces. These are the...
Here we enter the starry terrain of unreturned affections, where one soul adores and the other ambles on. Unrequited love, it’s like shouting sweet nothings into a void that only echoes back your own yearning. Some astrologers say if a...
The Sun–Saturn conjunction is a powerful union. The self (the Sun) meeting the taskmaster (Saturn) in a kind of slow-growth of discipline and destiny. Now, to your question—does this conjunction imbue the Sun with an Aquarian essence, due to Saturn’s...
I’m going to dedicate a week to answering only forum questions. Since Monday’s already gone, I’ll start with the rest of the week and see what comes up. I won’t be selective or judgmental about which questions to answer. I’ll Continue reading Forum Questions
