    Saturn – The Caged Bird

    May 11, 2015 - By 

    Saturn’s is that part of your life where you’ve been handed stern lessons: reality checks, limitations, and a perennial sense of, “Why can’t I just let loose and be free?” But here’s the beauty of it, that caged bird feeling, that sense of longing for release, is itself the key to understanding Saturn’s lessons. Where Saturn sits in your chart is the area where you’re forced to grow up, face your fears, and get serious about what you truly want. It’s influence doesn’t necessarily mean you’re doomed to misery in that part of your life. The cage you feel might just…

    Mercury-Neptune Aspects: A Sadness Around Communication

    April 23, 2015 - By 

    When Mercury forms a connection with Neptune in your astrological chart, it activates and enhances your mental and intuitive abilities. It’s as if a seamless bridge is established between your conscious and subconscious minds, allowing for an integration of thoughts and emotions. In essence, you become a potent radio receiver, finely attuned to the frequencies of the collective consciousness, effortlessly picking up on the subtle nuances of others’ thoughts and feelings. This heightened sensitivity is not confined to the mundane realm of everyday communication, it imparts a psychic edge to your words. Your verbal expressions may possess an ability to…

    Aries Horoscope Sign

    February 22, 2015 - By 

    Aries is focused on everything new and untried, its action is energizing, pushy and this individual apt to do things single-handedly. The principle characterization of Aries is that of assertiveness, daring, love of enterprise and adventure. The fire element manifested in its cardinal (0) quality results in an inspirational trailblazer of the zodiac. We also have the knight in shining armour archetype of rescuing someone form an unhappy situation. The Arian personality is filled with flowers and spring, and being a springtime sign many ancient people consider this as the actual beginning of the year. The Ram (Aries) in mythology…

    Aries – Red

    February 21, 2015 - By 

    The color red—like a blazing inferno, it commands attention, pulses with life, and has an undeniable presence. It’s no surprise that red aligns itself with Aries, the first sign of the zodiac. It bursts forth with the kind of vitality only the zodiac’s leading act can muster. Red is the hue of heroes, rebels, and those who dance on the edges of life’s precipices, daring to leap where others hesitate. It’s the color of passion—an emotion that doesn’t sit quietly in the corner but demands to be seen, heard, and felt. Aries, with their fiery spirit, mirrors this energy. They’re…

    Jungian Typology: The Issue of Typing

    February 17, 2015 - By 

    In Marie-Louise von Franz’s book on Jungian typology, it’s a joy for anyone in need of a bit of introspective learning on the four elements. Here, we’re dipping into the elemental waters (pun thoroughly intended) of astrological psychology, feeling both flattered and affronted by the categorization. Typology—Jungian, astrological, or otherwise,  delves right into our deeply human need to understand and classify our personality. Let’s be honest: there’s a giddy thrill in reading about one’s “type.” Each page almost feels like a covert confirmation of our hidden quirks, our inner dynamics, our unique (or so we believe) emotional expressions. But we often…

    Urban Astrology Signs

    February 11, 2015 - By 

    I found that the Urban Dictionary’s entries for the twelve astrological signs varied from humorous to informative to cool to insane to enlightening. It’s fun, from beginning to end. What follows is a list of my top picks: Aries Someone born relatively between March 22 and April 20. Identifying an Aries: when they raise their eyebrows, they create creases on their forehead that some say look like the “ram” symbol. Freaky stuff.  Selfish pricks. I dated an Aries once. He was a selfish prick… Taurus Sign of the bull, characterized by traits of being highly sensual, grounded, persevering The way…

    Pluto’s Trauma

    January 20, 2015 - By 

    Trauma, much like Pluto’s influence, can be subtle, submerged beneath layers of denial, or it can be cataclysmic, leaving cracks in the foundation of our being. You see, Pluto isn’t just a planet; it’s a mirror to our hidden wounds, those lingering shadows that we carry, sometimes unknowingly, deep within our hearts. When you consult an astrologer about Pluto’s position in your chart, you’re essentially asking to peek behind the curtain of your conscious mind. You’re inquiring about those unseen forces that pull your strings, the ghostly hands that manipulate your fears, desires, and unresolved pain. And why is it…

    Moon in Pisces: Why Do I Feel so Sad?

    December 31, 2014 - By 

    The Moon in Pisces is known for stirring deep emotions, often leading you to experience heightened sensitivity and melancholy. You have the “Bluest Moon” in astrology, symbolizing an infinite and profound connection to the collective emotional landscape. Characterized by your empathetic nature, which allows you to tune into the emotions of others almost effortlessly, this heightened sensitivity can sometimes become overwhelming as you absorb not just the feelings, but also the ambient energies of the people around you. It makes you incredibly understanding and compassionate, though it also poses challenges in emotional self-regulation. The ocean is particularly apt when discussing…

    Venus-Neptune: The Artist, Lover, Muse

    December 27, 2014 - By 

    When Venus is conjunct, square, or opposite Neptune in your chart, it’s like having your psyche dipped in pure liquid beauty. Venus rules love, relationships, and all things aesthetic. Neptune rules dreaming, mystical visions, and is forever peering through the veil into realms of ineffable longing. Together, they create something truly enchanting, it’s no wonder it’s known as the artist’s aspect. When these planets connect—whether they’re in a conjunction, challenging each other in a square, in harmony with a trine, or locked in a bit of tension through an opposition—something sublime emerges in the soul. This aspect is an invitation…

    Pisces: The Ten Commandments

    December 14, 2014 - By 

    In an Effort to Distort Reality, Thou Shalt Not Live by Compulsions Like Drinking, Drug Addiction, and Other Forms of Escape Pisces—beautiful, watery, enigmatic Pisces. You’re like the soulful poet of the zodiac, draped in metaphysical lace, dreaming under the moonlit ocean of the unconscious, but prone to occasionally getting tangled in a seaweed of your own creation. Neptune’s your ruler, that sorceress who governs both dreams and delusions, inspiration and intoxication.  Now, Pisces, with all that heartful intensity, often needs a little respite. The world’s harsh edges, with its grimy realism and the endless to-do lists that come with…

    Scorpio: The Death Wish

    December 14, 2014 - By 

    Scorpio is the sign draped in the velvet of mystery, laden with the weight of all things untold and unspoken. The sign that seems to have been made out of life’s darkest corners and imbued with a touch of both fire and water. If we dare to venture into its maze, we need to carry with us more than just astrological maps—we need psychological insight. And who better than Freud, the father of psychoanalysis, with his obsession over all things submerged, to help us decode Scorpio’s hidden nature? Freud, the cigar-smoking conjurer of the subconscious, would have looked at Scorpio…

    Sun and Moon: Divine Destiny

    December 10, 2014 - By 

    The Sun is related to gold and was traditionally associated with divine powers because of its impermeability; it is resistant to both fire and water. To emulate the qualities of gold was to partake of divinity and immortality. The color of gold is the color of the Sun as silver the Moon, the two great celestial powers that rule over life by the masculine, daylight and consciousness (Sun), and by night through the feminine, dreams, the soul, and the unconscious (Moon). The Sun and Moon have always had this special relationship and in spiritual terms represent the mystic union of…
