I can appreciate all the skepticism with regard to astrology. After all, we have been conditioned to believe it is either a pseudoscience or that we are our sun signs or we have been taught the tropical/placidus western model. When it comes to Astrology, misinformation is common. We have too many astrology enthusiasts and astrologers... Continue Reading →
Tropical Versus Sidereal | For those who practice Astrology
In the most literal sense, the definition of "sidereal" equals "the stars". Sidereal follows the stars and tropical follows the seasons (which never change). When it comes to the stars, they move slowly, but they move. The constellations are moving 1 degree backwards every 72 years. The most accurate astrologers follow this movement. There is...

The “genetic” Nature of Our Birth Charts
I am not an astrologer, but I have been studying over a hundred charts over the last three years and what I have noticed is that families will often have placements in common. I believe there is a method to this madness. It feels right for me to postulate that we create our own birth... Continue Reading →
Demystifying Psychic Awareness of Others
Reading people is normal. Maybe not common, but normal. We are all hardwired from birth to see people beneath their mask and into their subconscious mind. Babies do this. Children are wildly aware of everything. It is not woo to see the depths of people with clarity. We are all connected in spirit; this is... Continue Reading →
What Might Be Behind The Creation of the Word “Empath”?
Did the establishment create the word "empath" to work as another form of spiritual bypass? I used to read all the empath memes and literature and used to think I was born special as I had thought I was an empath. I grew up feeling anything but special and I needed to feel special, so...

Are Cusps Real? The Difference between the Deep and the Shallow Ways of Studying Astrology
People often ask about cusps. And I have two words: degrees and decans. NASA/the establishment, as everyone should know, is against astrology calling it junk science. There is every reason to confuse, distract and use disinformation to keep this tool for self-growth from us. We are given a platform to study astrology superficially in terms... Continue Reading →
How I believe each astrological sign contributes to our growth
This is on how each sign is a student and a teacher and how we are all catalysts to each other's evolution. It might help us appreciate the fact that all signs are here to HELP, not hurt. There is no such thing as a "bad" placement. There are light and dark sides of each... Continue Reading →
How much weight do rising signs and house rulerships carry when reading a birth chart?
I think we can understand ourselves much better if we learn house cusps. I'm a Gemini Rising and it isn't a mask for me; it's my identity even when I am alone. There is so much that goes into my Gemini Ascendent then it being my just my 'go-to personality'. The ascendant is a large... Continue Reading →
The Trap of Astrology
"I'm a Scorpio; that's just what we do." To really appreciate astrology, I think it's important to appreciate the difference between understanding behavior and excusing behavior. Often we say things like "I'm a private person because I'm a scorpio. That's just a "scorpio thing." While this trait can describe one who is a scorpio or... Continue Reading →
Are Planetary Retrogrades Just an Illusion?
The experts say that during retrogrades, the planets are not really moving backwards and that is just and illusion. However, if nothing is changing in the sky, then there is no retrograde and there is no animal (human or non) response. Mercury is still doing it's thing just like any other day. If Mercury isn't...

Sun Signs and Energy
"Not all [insert sign] are like that", we might often say as a result of superficial generalizations and it is rather disquieting.... Generalizing is bad and forgets the complexity of one's individual chart. Houses, Planetary relationships, natal moon phase and transits are all important. But, for those who are sensitive to energy and for those... Continue Reading →
Why Judgment Makes Little Sense
I have been reading these two books and while they don't mention "astrology" or our "astrological charts", they are all about how we create our own "charts" before we incarnate on Earth. Before we incarnate, we have "pre-birth planning sessions" with our spirit guides and our soul group and during those sessions we create a... Continue Reading →
