‘If you have planets in fall or detriment, you are doomed. Doomed I tell you! Doomed with the doomiest of doomy dooms’…is what some people mistakenly assume astrologers mean when they talk about planets lacking essential dignity. No, you are not doomed, at least on this basis. So let’s put this puerile bullshit to rest […]

While we’re all nervously gulping about the Saturn-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn, we’re probably also wondering a bit about what to expect from Jupiter in Capricorn. I’ve already written about what the Jupiter-Pluto conjunctions will be about in the realms of science and finance, but this article is about what to expect from Jupiter in Capricorn […]

If there’s anything we remember about the 2010’s, it will be the glorious cornucopia of internet memes that have pervaded everyday life and are not likely to go away any time soon. Memes have changed and evolved but we’ll always remember those good ol’ 2010’s-era image macros with the distinct bolded/outlined Impact font on just […]

The holiday season is upon us, so it’s time to light the fireplace, get cozy with some hot chocolate, and engage in gratuitous consumption to enrich our corporate overlords and fill the void of existential dread through the mandatory exchange of material goods and services with your family, friends and co-workers. At least there are […]

This is such a complicated topic, because using Zodiacal Releasing on Donald Trump’s chart did not work out the first time around. In fact, the apparent weakness of Trump’s Zodiacal Releasing periods was a key factor in my failed 2016 prediction. So the first step of using Zodiacal Releasing to predict the 2020 Election was […]

Not long after Mercury stationed retrograde in Scorpio, Twitter user @mechapoetic tweeted the following statement: to kick a hornet’s nest: astrology is a gateway to fascism. all such mysticism that seeks to explain human behaviour as inborn and predetermined rather than as a result of material conditions is like this. it is not “misogyny” to […]

I have written and talked a lot about the 2020 Saturn-Pluto conjunction and I recently wrote about scientific advancements and the Jupiter-Pluto cycle. I want to write about interpreting the 2020 convergence of Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto together but first I have to address another side of the Jupiter-Pluto cycle that may have a more […]

In 2020, Jupiter and Pluto will conjoin in late Capricorn, so I wanted to take a look back at previous Jupiter-Pluto hard aspects to get a sense of their archetypal signature. When I did this I found a remarkable pattern that fits the combined archetypes of Jupiter and Pluto somewhat literally: the development of telescopes […]

When Emmanuel Macron won the French presidential election in 2017, there was some consternation among Zodiacal Releasing enthusiasts that Macron’s victory did not appear to be indicated by his Zodiacal Releasing from the Lot of Spirit. This is because angular Zodiacal Releasing periods are correlated with “peaks” in one’s career, and one would expect that […]

It’s now officially autumn/fall, so we’re basically in Halloween season now. One of my favorite things about the Halloween season is watching scary movies. Being an astrologer, I’ve gotten into the habit of categorizing characters or the main themes of a film in terms of astrological archetypes. And while a listicle about horror movies and […]
