Gemini Decan 2

Gemini Decan 2 is ruled by Mars. The Sun takes giant leaps through the constellations of the Hunter, the Hare, the Charioteer and the River from June 1-11. This is the zone of the speed freaks and multi-taskers. The hare is known for its swiftness while the charioteer thunders across the sky while holding a whole family of goats! These people don’t do anything by halves. All too often however, Gemini decan 2 just takes on far too much and then suffers burn out. Having an accident or becoming ill is the only way they may get any rest. These subjects can also become totally driven by their desires, Orion is the hunter, so stalking is their speciality. This is surprising in a sign supposed to be so carefree and light-hearted. This decan is ruled by Mars, which is either sex or war, so these twins can get extremely irritable when they can’t channel their libido. Orion is also the most lusty, phallic constellation in the sky, rivalling only Aries and Taurus in virility. But where the Ram and the Bull are fuelled by procreation and biology, Orion loves the whole drama and courtship of sex. The chase is the best bit, lots of twists and turns, intrigue, titillation and teasing. Sex can also be a sedative for Gemini decan 2, orgasm will be an explosive release of tension. The twins here are extra inquisitive, intellectually daring, and their mind is as agile as their bodies. They need to have … Continue reading

Gemini Decan 1

Gemini Decan 1 is ruled by Jupiter, the sun crusades through the constellations of Taurus the Bull, Perseus the Hero and the River from May 21 to 31. This section of the sky houses the famous star clusters the Hyades and the Pleiades, plus of course the royal star Aldebaran in the Bull’s eye. These clusters have stormy reputations, Alcyone is scandalous in love and the Hyades bring tears and violence. Perseus is not the most sedate fellow either, brandishing his sword and grasping poor Medusa’s decapitated head. With Jupiter’s influence here then we get activists and militants who are on a spiritual or religious mission. They see themselves as spiritual warriors and reformers, on this earth to stamp out evil. This area is also very artistic, so those in the entertainment business here will always have a socio-political message behind what they do. They will also want to gain status, and be admired for their intellect. These people are great conversationalists, come out with great one liners and have the ability to abruptly and skilfully steer the discussion off any subject matter that is not their forte. The last thing these brainiacs wants to appear as is stupid! Gemini decan 1 is the thinking mans warrior, they will rescue damsels in distress, the underdog and the hard done by, all because they want to be the good Samaritan. They are not fighting for the thrill of spilling blood, good gracious no! The twins are chivalrous knights, but nevertheless can’t … Continue reading

Solar Eclipse May 2013 – Gold Mining

The solar eclipse May 10 2013 is at 19º Taurus on on fixed star Rucha on the knee of haughty Queen Cassiopeia. The chart is heavily weighted to the South Node which, depending on what astrological system you use, can be  good karmic debt or plain bad shit. It is you see, the dragons arse. We also have Ceres opposite Pluto the god of dark tunnels.. It’s all looking a bit colonic. At the Ceres/Pluto conjunction in 2010 we had the Icelandic Volcanic Eruption and the Chile Mine Collapse. The volcano (Ceres) blocked business (Pluto) in Europe through flight cancellations and in Chile the 33 miners were buried 2 months underground! The theme was separation from families for the acquisition of wealth. Taurus decan 2 has strong family pride, sometimes so extreme that elevating the status of the clan can override the individual happiness of its members. With the volcanic eruption European airlines were accused of putting profits before peoples safety. The Solar Eclipse May 2013 chart is very spartan. No ease of trine, but a very emphatic crossing of batons, as if to say, “No entry, you’re not in the elite club, so push off!” This of course only makes us want to […]

Taurus Decan 3

Taurus decan 3 is ruled by Saturn. The sun twists and turns through the constellations of the Ram, the River, Perseus the hero, Queen Cassiopeia, Medusa’s head and some of the Pleiades from May 11 to 20. It is appropriate that the dark lord of time Saturn rules this decan since it houses the infamous star Algol. This part of Taurus houses bohemians and temperamental, artistic types. Decan 3 bovines are probably less set in their ways than the classic Taurus because of the influence of our dashing hero Perseus. They can be daring, but are still very much fixed in their determination to pursue their dream. Taurus decan 3 are extremely chivalrous, they have impeccable manners and a lot of class. Even the most low-down wretched expression of the breed will give off an aura of sophistication. Caught shamefully stumbling on the pavement after too much Algol-hol, they will still manage to wobble back onto their high hooves gracefully. Taurus decan 3 has great taste and appreciation of the aesthetic, managing to dress like a lord even if they can only afford to shop in charity shops. They are also incredibly thrifty like the rest of the sign and […]

Lunar Eclipse April 2013 – Spirit Matters

The Lunar eclipse April 25 2013 is at 5º Scorpio on fixed star Gacrux in the Crucifix. The Lunar eclipse forms the backbone of a heavenly Kite aspect pattern and trines both Ceres & Neptune. Constellation Crux “ is said to give perseverance, but many burdens, trials and responsibilities, together with much suffering and many hardships.” It was called the Southern Cross long before it was associated with Christianity. The constellation signifies guidance in general and it’s stars are often found in occultists and astrologers. It is the cross of matter, signifying the four directions in the horoscope, the Ascendant/Descendant axis crossing the Midheaven/IC axis. This is an important eclipse because this small, but potent constellation will be reactivated on November 1 when we get the final hit of Uranus square Pluto and soon after with the Solar Eclipse of November 3. The lunar eclipse usually brings endings and/or a culmination of a matter. This is so a new beginning can occur. Both lunar and solar eclipses are threshold points, birth and deaths. To me the lunar eclipse emphasises what you have to leave behind, so there is some melancholia about them. With solar eclipses you are so excited about your new start, you don’t even […]

Moon Square Neptune

Moon square Neptune is one of the most sensitive and compassionate aspects one can have, but sometimes its idealism can be misplaced, unrealistic and impractical. The subject’s day-to-day existence can be a struggle with the nebulous and surreal energy of Neptune. They may feel like they are forever walking through a Dali painting, checkerboard staircases tapering off in spirals, melting clocks… However this fantastical imagination works very well in show busniess since the square turns the fantasising into something concrete, the movies with all its glamour and melodramatic are just perfect for these individuals.The problem with this aspect though is finding the individual beneath the face paint and dry ice. In positions of power too, these subjects can easily use the Moons popularity and Neptune’s mystique as a smokescreen over corruption or abuse of position. Neptune can rule deception, lies and delusion, the risk is more so with the square. Therefore Moon square Neptune can have criminal tendencies in its very lowest vibration. Addictions, especially alcoholism are a very obvious danger with this aspect. The subjects are so very sensitive to the environment that self-medication can be the only way to numb the pain. The moon can fall victim to […]

Taurus Decan 2

Taurus decan 2 are ruled by the Moon. The Sun soldiers purposely on through the constellations of the River, the Queen, the Chained Princess, the Triangle, the Sea Monster and the Clock from May 1 to May 10.  These bulls are tenacious and ambitious; they rise to the top through sheer determination, patience and stamina. Taurus decan 2 is mild mannered, an ace seducer and extremely persuasive. Taurus rules the throat so these folk can be powerful orators or singers. Their speech is a potent tool for propaganda and spin-doctoring. Being ruled by the Moon does make them popular, seeming to be the father or mother of the people. Politically these people give you the feeling  they will take care of business and your life is safe in their responsible hands. Taurus decan 2 has a strong Ceres/Pluto undertone to it. These people can suffocate with love, literally smothering to death in the case of the most negative manifestation (Brady strangled his victims). The mix of charm and possessiveness can breed Svengali’s here. Their solid as a rock authority, status and respectability can attract naive and insecure Liza Doolittle’s who look up to them as a parent/mentor. These bulls can make […]

Taurus Decan 1

Taurus decan 1 is ruled by Mercury. The Sun steam rolls through constellations Aries, Cassiopeia, the Triangle, the River and the Goldfish from April 21 – 30. These can be the raging bulls of Taurus, with less of the usual placid, laid-back energy they are known for. Due to precession, this sector is totally dominated by the constellation of Aries. The influence of Queen Cassopeia is also very strong, even though the poor love was strapped upside down in her throne and hung far up in the poles for her boasting. There is aggressive energy here and Mercury ruling Taurus decan 1 also speeds things up considerably. These people are gifted orators and fight their battles with words. They are supreme propagandists. For them the pen really is mightier than the sword. Taurus decan 1 is the dictator zone. This is a bestial sign so their directing style might sometime lack grace or tact and their expression is frank and to the point. Taurus decan 1 are like primary school children, demanding and cute at the same time. Doe-eyed Bambi when asking for treats, then a fuming, silent tantrum if they don’t get their way. Taurus decan 1 can do […]

New Moon April 2013 – Fast Love

The New Moon April 2013 on the 10th is at 20º Aries in Baten Kaitos the sea monster’s belly. Wow this one is going to be fierce because the new Moon falls slap bang into a stellium containing Eris, Mars and Venus. What a flaming pile-up! To add to the orgy we have Asteroids Melpomene, the muse of tragedy and Asteroid Valentine. Yep, it’s Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance.” Well, we know how melodramatic Aries decan 3 can be. Prepare for some very hammy actors and camp villains. Let’s do the time warp again… The full moon had us yearning to set sail for exotic destinations. For those that actually did run off and join the circus, the clowns may be starting to look like nightmare ghouls now the greasepaint has worn off. Venus was opposite the Moon then, far off in the mist and looking rather fetching. But now she is up close and personal! If we have been realistic in our plans, then it’s not going to be such a shock. However if we have had too much rum on our voyage then be prepared for a frightful revelation. It’s rather like when the bandages come off after a […]
