Upton Sinclair was a prolific writer of up to 100 books published, covering many different genres. As a proud Virgo with Sun conjunct Mars in this sign, he exposed the process of a meat factory with unsanitary conditions and cruelty to animals:   Neill and Reynolds found that meat was being “shoveled from filthy wooden floors,…...

Question: Can you see in the natal chart if a person is prone to depression? For the darkest of depression, the kind that makes you feel like you’ve been dragged underground. Much of this is due to planets in Capricorn and/or Scorpio, powerful Saturn, and/or Pluto aspects and bodies in the 8th house, natally or…...
