National Geographic: Swallowed By A Great White Shark

by  • 

My grandparents had stacks of yellow-edged National Geographics in the basement of their house, some dating from the days before photographs were on the front cover. On rainy days in summer or awkward Christmas holidays, I escaped down there, opened those shiny covers and travelled the world. I guess it was like that for a lot of people. The magazine was like an old friend, something we took for granted. It would always be yellow, the pictures would always be great, and the world it told us about would always be awesome. Until last month the magazine was not for profit, which explains perhaps […]

Astrology of Now: Overwhelming

Jupiter in Virgo opposition Neptune in Pisces — September 17 Readers of the horoscope will know that the coming opposition between Jupiter and Neptune is the most important aspect this month, influencing this entire period into the next season and possibly the whole year.  For some people it will be the most important aspect of a lifetime. For the refugees walking out of danger, the meaning of this aspect is clear, but every single one of us feels this one. Neptune in Pisces is super-powered. Jupiter, opposing him, both magnifies the power and distributes it. This aspect is about huge […]

Here Are Refugees

by  • 

According to the on-line Oxford English Dictionary a migrant is “A worker who moves from place to place to do seasonal work.” A refugee is “A person who has been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster:” It’s a disgrace that the BBC and The Guardian are still calling the people pouring out of Syria and Iraq migrants. Words matter. These people are refugees. There’s a holocaust on Europe’s doorstep. We have seen this insanity before: in Rwanda, in Congo, in Cambodia, in Germany. The behaviour of ISIS or Daesh or whatever you […]

August 2015: EPA Toxic Mining Sludge Spill video, plus EPA Astro-Notes

by  • 

And then this happened:

Under toxic threat, the Navaho Nation has taken emergency action against the August 5, 2015 accidental release of heavy metal sludge as the Gold King Mine near Silverton, Colorado as it was being ‘cleaned up’ by the EPA–or, apparently, by contractors hired by the EPA. Perhaps we can thank the movement to privatize government agencies for that.

Astrology of Now: Magic Is Real

by  • 

The Sun, which brings light to us, and Neptune, lord of mystic revelation, are conjunct this week.  Magic is all around us, especially if we know how to look. To see a world in a grain of sand, And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour. – William Blake, Auguries of Innocence (extract)

Bitter Lake

by  • 

Adam Curtis’ extraordinary and beautiful documentary, Bitter Lake, mesmerises. Archival footage from the BBC, overlaid with a textured, eclectic soundscape creates an experience that leaves you breathless, wondering at the new world order that you sense, and at a new art form for the internet age. Ostensibly, Bitter Lake is a partial explanation of how the West wildly misunderstood Afghanistan. There are, as you might expect, an authoritative sounding voice over, subtitles and clips of world leaders shaking hands and soldiers fighting. But instead of delivering a load of facts to chew over, like most documentaries, Bitter Lake leaves you with a set of […]
