Sensual, erotic Made to be seduced The Earth is sensual To get high Is to inhale The mingled perfume and sweat On a shirt you left lying around And keen delight Strikes in my deepest core When I feel the texture of your voice I feel it, deep inside of me There is no greater […]

My Gemini IC and my Shallow Roots
I’m writing this from my parents’ home in Goa. I did think of writing it once I got back to Bangalore, but since this post is about the IC, I thought it was appropriate that I write it from my folks’ home, sitting in my old bedroom. They moved to this apartment when I had […]
Pluto in Capricorn
I don’t know if this is appropriate astrologically. But I knew a Capricorn, right out of the books. Rags to riches. Built an empire and died much too young. Saw an old picture of his today with his son. His son who saw too little of him when he was alive. His son who was […]
Spring Has Sprung!
I was looking for a Leonard Cohen quote to start this post because I don’t have very much to offer today and it captures the spirit in which I offer you this. I wanted the bit that starts like this, “Ring the bells that still can ring…” It’s from his poem called Anthem, and […]
The Moon Progresses through the Twelfth
Not now. Yes, there is a lot to be done. Worlds to conquer, battles to wage, wars to be won. But not now. Not now. Yes, there is a lot out there. A magnificent planet. Creations to create and books to write. But not now, not now. And, yes, I will need to be strong. […]
Howling at the Dark of the Moon
I’m a First Quarter child. Don’t let my Pisces ASC fool you. I was born for and am always geared for battle, for action, for dealing with things. When things are at their worst, that’s when I get really calm, really effective. And when things go quiet, when the moon goes dark…I can’t deal with […]
Pluto in the Seventh: Intense?
Be there when I open my eyes I ask no more of you Come uncalled when I need you That’s all I want from you Celebrate my need for you Don’t label it a weakness Tear your heart from your chest And let me look inside It’s a small price to pay If you […]
Astrology Humor
Transiting Pluto’s been trining my natal Mercury and I cannot tell you how intense that has been and still is. Wherever I turn, whether it is related to work or pleasure, it involves intense reading and studying. It’s all uphill right now and all long-term so I thought I’d take a little break and post […]
Pluto, the Nodal Axis and Evolutionary Astrology
I remember something my teacher said on a Facebook thread about the internet and astrology. It was about the current generation learning astrology via the net. The downside being that when they look at a chart, they do not always get that some points in the chart carry more weight. In tropical astrology, the Sun, […]
To Moon in Capricorn
Ever notice how you measure out How you carefully dole out Your love to me? And then sometimes you forget That you believe in loving in a calculated way And lay your heart bare to me? But you quickly redress that lapse When you remember Even love needs to be studiously invested Then you […]
