Vesna Vulovic was a young 22-year-old flight attendant working for Yugoslav Airlines. Due to a mix-up on her work schedule, she boarded a flight by accident only to find herself in the middle of a terrorist attack/hijack. A bomb exploded while in flight and Vesna was thrown from the plane and fell 33,333 feet. And…...
Mercury and Pluto take our mental faculties into the shadowy depths of the psyche. The themes here aren’t for the faint of heart: buried truths, suppressed fears, and taboo topics rise unbidden into conscious thought. There’s a magnetism to the hidden and forbidden. You are about to enter into the realm of the unspeakable. Suddenly,…...
Those blessed (or occasionally burdened) with a Pisces Moon seem to have been born with one foot in this world and the other floating in the waters of another dimension. They’re receivers, tuning into a frequency most of us can’t quite hear–subtle signals from the spiritual undercurrent. Emotionally, they’re not only deep – they’re fathomless…....
The Moon in Taurus is the embodiment of “stop and smell the roses,” but also, “lie down in a bed of them, wrapped in silk, with a bit of fine chocolate melting on your tongue.” These individuals are devoted worshippers of the physical realm, its most loyal disciples. Their souls don’t hover above the ground,…...
The 12th house is a vast ocean of the unconscious, a realm of unresolved debts from past lives. Mars, submerged in the depths of this abyss, finds its action stifled, its aggression turned inward, and its anger fermenting into something potent and dangerous. To have Mars in the 12th is to feel like you’re constantly…...
To some extent, it is what we may cling to for security; what gives us a feeling of rootedness in the world. The Moon describes our whole attitude to the notion of being protected and protecting others. How do we protect ourselves, how do we protect others? The Moon describes what we are likely to…...
As a sign, Gemini is the one who seems to live in a realm just beyond the grasp of the present moment, forever flitting between thoughts, ideas, and possibilities. It’s no wonder people call them the most ‘mental’ of the airy trigon. They are thought itself, incarnate—restless, watchful, forever analyzing, forever comparing, forever searching for…...
The Scorpion’s sting is lethal, unrelenting, and, in many ways, misunderstood. Scorpios have dark depths and intensity, and they simply can’t experience feelings in a casual, surface-level way. They dive headfirst into the abyss of emotion. Love isn’t an easy affection—it’s an all-consuming vortex, a spiritual possession. Hate isn’t a passing irritation—it’s a scorched-earth campaign,…...
Individuals born with Mercury in Gemini possess keen perception, sharp eyes for detail, and a quick ability to evaluate situations objectively. The apparent ease with which they deduce the nature of a situation often baffles outsiders. Their minds process information at a dizzying rate, and they seem to move on almost instantly to the next…...
With Mercury in Cancer, you get a communication style steeped in nostalgia, intuition, and emotional undercurrents. Thoughts absorb the essence of past experiences. You might find yourself remembering what someone said to you years ago—not only the words, but the way they made you feel. A conversation is an exchange of feelings, memories, and unspoken…...
A birth chart details the events occurring on the date, time, and place of a person’s birth, and astrology as an art form is made up of symbols, and when they all come together in your birth chart, they produce a one-of-a-kind pattern that can shed light on your life and the world around you…....
The Sun is the blazing heart of our solar system and is undeniably the great centre around which all things orbit. Without it, there would be no life, no warmth, no guiding light to define the day. In astrology, too, it takes its place as the core of our being, the source of selfhood, the…...
