A Retrospective in Love (Saturn in Pisces Concludes)

I don't know if it's politically incorrect to identify myself as a person who experiences chronic pain. My body may flex and shuttle itself without the protest of joints or nerves; however, my spirit moves within it like the string of a bow tied too taut.

My List of Joy as Venus Transits Pisces

A number of days ago, Venus entered Pisces, which has been her sign of exaltation since western astrology began in Mesopotamia. That's thousands of years of practicing astrologers from all different time periods, cultures, and perspectives going, "Yep, the planet of beauty, art, relationships, and sex really

Watching Venus and Mars Transits

Back when Grace and I first had to take time apart, I became obsessed with tracking Venus and Mars transits, both mundane and in association with our natal placements. Since Hellenistic astrology, Venus and Mars have been associated with their deities' namesakes, which makes their relationship unique among all

Mutable Musings: Saturn Again

The word my best friend used to describe her currently ongoing Saturn Return experience was "humbling." Are there many more experiences that are more vehemently spiritual than humility? Than hitting the point where you realize you can't go any further? Where you simply have to give

Meditations on Saturn Transit on the IC

Generally, I try not to share too much of my chart especially this publicly. I hang around a group of very traditional occultists who would advise against it. If you see someone's full chart, you can easily perform malefic magic that will cause a significant amount of damage.

Thousands of years of star tracking All coming down to you Scrunching your nose at where that Red, ugly man stills in the lion and saying, "Ew." --Us, realizing he'll be right on our Sun and Midheaven

Casting Astrological Charts for Non-Astro Purposes

A couple of weeks ago, I could not find my tape measure, which I wanted to use to measure my window in order to purchase curtains. So I decided to cast a horary chart, asking, "Where is my tape measure?" I only ever use horary astrology to try

The Most Mercurial I have ever been

I got ID'ed as male by three separate cis men strangers in the last three days and then I just got ma'amed by a service worker after coming up in a line of all cis women. I am truly male with men and female with women.

Mars in Cancer: Grieving a Mother Wound

Back in New Jersey, I sought acupuncture treatment to help manage my addiction-level sugar cravings, which I inherited from my mother. So I wasn't nervous to reach out to a traditional Chinese medicine college in my local area that had a low-cost clinic. I was particularly interested in

TRANSitional Astrology: Electional Astrology or Thoughts on Divine Timing

A few weeks ago, my podmate J reached out to me because he needed my astrological know-how to settle on an interview time. This interview was a Really Big Deal. One of the things J and I initially bonded over other than our trans masc identities was that we are

TRANSitional Astrology: Finding a Life-based Framework for my Practice

A couple of weeks ago I was fretting about finding a framework for my astrological practice. I resolved this fairly soon after by ordering over 20 books from my library system on astrology. I then pulled out my Thoth Tarot deck to locate which of the 20 to start with

Life Updates and When It's Great to Be Wrong

Entering into 2024, it seemed to be all about love and relationships. That's what Twitter astrologers espoused, anyway. Frankly, looking at my transits, I thought so too and so did my astrologer and tarot reader. Venus and Mars finally reconnected in Aquarius a few months ago after never

Using Astrology Strategically with Hindsight

The biggest divergence of understanding between traditional astrology, even modern "psychological" astrology*, and pop astrology is what astrology is for. The latter in its rapid proliferation of memes and stereotyping of different zodiac signs is primarily interested in entertainment. The former asks, "In what way can I

The Necessity of Blockages in a Spiritual Life

Gods what a Saturnian title! As I am writing this, I am not in the best of places. To clarify, I am surprisingly feeling good, but my life prospects from a traditional capitalist standpoint look pretty shot. I want to disclose this openly because I haven't seen a

Tracking Saturn Through a Lifetime

Saturn is the source of retentive power. He governs an aspect toward profound knowledge; the science of law; the search for causes, effects, and the origins of things; the utterance of magical words; and the knowledge of deep and occult properties.
