Are you a poet? Do you like to write? Do you talk a lot? - an Astrological Look

I was just watching a video on facebook that featured Joni Mitchell singing and playing guitar. Anyone who knows Joni Mitchell knows that she is a prolific songwriter whose lyrics stand out as something special. She was a true poet in her day that put countless words into song. In this video she shared the stage with Bob Dylan another legend when it comes to lyrics and songwriting.

So the question I want to ask is what do they have in common astrologically. We know that Mercury is the god of communication so we would need to find Mercury prominently placed in their charts or heavily aspected. Remember Mercury rules Gemini so let's look for some clues there as well.

The first chart up is Joni's. Her Sun sign is conjunct Mercury within one degree. The Sun sign defines your character and how you want to be known in the world. As an example If the Sun is aspecting Jupiter you would have strong sense of self or 'big ego'.because anything that touches Jupiter grows bigger If the Sun is aspecting Saturn you may have a smaller sense of self or a humble sense of self. If the Sun is aspecting the moon you are an emotional person.... and you figured it out by now... If the Sun is conjunct Mercury you are a good communicator, writer, talker, even musician...remember the mythology of Hermes who represents Mercury in astrology played the lyre.

Now let's move on to Bob Dylan. Let's look for a strong Mercury aspect in his chart.

Dylan has 3 planets in Gemini and Mercury squaring Neptune. He has more Mercury dominance than Joni Mitchell. His aspect of Mercury square Neptune is almost exact. This is the classic aspect of a poet. He uses his words, Mercury, to create an out of body experience, Neptune. Bob Dylan also has two other planets in gemini conjunct Jupiter. His whole being is about words and poetry and music.

So even though both Joni Mitchell and Bob Dylan are great song writers and performers they have different Mercury aspects to describe how they achieve that goal.

Actually, is it not really a goal... it is effortless for them. It is who they are. Joni Mitchell is just filled with words where as Bob Dylan has words appear to him through the collective. For Joni she just likes to talk and express herself. For Bob, he is blessed with having a direct connection to the collective unconscious of the world and can express it with his music. That is why it resonates with so many people of his generation.

Check your chart to see if you are a natural communicator. Where is your Mercury? Comment below.

Bobby Hull and Anger Management an Astrological Look...

One of the greatest athletes that ever lived died today. He is one of the few hockey players that was so popular that he made it into main stream media. He was 84 years old.

In social media people were bringing up his past. It seems he was married a few times and had a bit of a temper. I'm not here to talk about that, we should let him rest in peace. I'm here to teach astrology. So let's assume for a minute that the early allegations about his temper were true. You can read about it with a simple search. What aspect in his chart would make him lash out at people?

As we can see from the chart Mars is at 14 degrees Scorpio. Mars in Scorpio can be controlling, vindictive, strong willed and determined to get what you want at any price. Mars is also directly opposing Uranus. Mars is a physical planet...great for playing hockey and beating up on your opponents but not so great when it comes to controlling anger. The Uranus opposition makes his anger unpredictable.

Sudden unpredictable outbursts of anger is typical of this aspect. These two planets are also on his nodes so they played a signifcant part in his life. Add to that an inconjunct to his moon and a woman (moon) would be the trigger for these outbursts.

Thank you Mr. Hull for letting us use your chart to learn a little more about ourselves. RIP

Was DJ Twitch a Suicide? - Astrology

When things like sudden deaths happen there is always conspiracy theories that pop up. People ask 'Did Twitch really commit suicide', 'Was he murdered'?

As we can see from the chart there were two things going on at his time of death. One of them mental and the other emotional. The first of the two was that Chiron the wounded healer was opposing his Mercury. To me this means that he had communication with someone that really hurt him mentally.

This really wasn't anything new because his depression started a while back when Saturn hit is moon. When Saturn hits your moon you feel the weight of the world and things become dark. It all depends on how you navigate these energies that will determine your outcome. These energies need to be honored.

Saturn is a contracting energy. It doesn't really get along well with Uranus where his moon resides. What he needed to do was deal with endings, contraction, making things smaller. Maybe downsizing. We know his show on Ellen ended so maybe he was feeling the pressure of the home.

What we do know from this chart is that he spoke to someone that sent him over the edge. The combination of Chiron and Saturn with the transiting moon triggering the event was too much for him to handle.

Why I do not thing it was a murder is because there was no violence in his chart on that day. There was no severe Mars or Pluto Transits.

The key in life is to work with the energies that are given to you. He was unable to quite his mind and handle the pressure of reality (Saturn). What he didn't know is that too would pass. RIP Twitch

Kanye's or Ye's Fall - Astrological Look

When Chiron the wounded healer hits your ascendant and your descendant at the same time it will both hurt you and your partners. Ye lost billions from opening his mouth with antisemitic remarks and his sponsors cancelled his contracts.

Also his transiting Saturn was opposing his natal Saturn. ... This is one of those times when you reap the harvest of past actions. If you have planted good crops in the past then the yield will be rewarding. However, if you have planted on rocky ground, then the crops may fail. Either way you find yourself having to put in the hard work to bring in the crop. If you are reaping rewards, there are extra responsibilities. If you are experiencing difficulties from past actions, you have to work hard to put things to right. You may sometimes feel that others are blocking your path. You would be wise to shoulder the responsibilities knowing that this is paving the way for a more stable future.

Is James Corden Nasty? - Astrology

James Corden is all over the news for allegedly treating servers badly at Balthazar restaurant in New York City. The owner actually banned him from the restaurant and lifted the ban when he apologized.

The question is does astrology let us know if James Corden can be verbally abusive? Well by the looks of his chart we see that he has an exact Venus Pluto conjunction. What does the mean? I knew that was your next question...

Venus are your relationships in you life and Pluto represents control so when you put them together you get "This can also create a desire to exert control and power over others. You usually act on your impulses and can end up becoming prone to deep unhappiness and anger." Those aren't my words but the words from a website called journalofcosmology.com.

So yes he can become angry and controlling. Also Pluto triangulates so we have the owner of the restaurant sticking up for his servers.

James Corden denies he did anything wrong but Astrology may have revealed something that most don't know about him!

Elvis Had More Drugs In His System When He Died Than You Probably Thought - An Astrological Look

The title of this piece is what appeared on MSN today. The article said this "Shockingly, Dr. Nichopoulos is estimated to have supplied Presley with a drug supply that amounted to around 10,000 pills in the eight months prior to his untimely death"

So from an astrological perspective who is born a possible drug addict? Keep in mind these are MOOD altering drugs. They are drugs that allow the individual to ESCAPE. They cannot handle reality so they must escape with a substance.

Everyone I know has an addiction of some sort. Whether it be a toke of marijuana every morning or eating too much sugar or white flour. Everyone tries to calm the pain of life in some way with the aid of a hard drug or a food or sex.

All of these techniques are allowing the individual to escape his or her body for a short period of time.

The planet in astrology that is most associated with escape and drugs is Neptune. Neptune represents that spiritual like experience that allows you to escape from the hardships of life. Think for a minute what other things allow you to escape? I would say music, dance, poetry, fishing or being by the water, Buddhism, religion or the Jesus experience, and of course alcohol and drugs.

One should remember that Jesus came into existence over 2000 years ago at the beginning of the Age of Pisces. Neptune is the ruler of Pisces. Jesus is the ultimate experience of Neptune. Some reach for religion while others reach for the bottle or the pills. They are all yearning for the same experience. They want OUT of the body or Saturn (earthly reality) for as long as it can last.

There is no coincidence that Jesus was born of the VIRGIN Mary. It is a sexless pregnancy. It is not of the body or the soul, it is of the spirit.

So back to Elvis... I would think he would need some Neptune in his astrology chart for him to be addicted to drugs and a world renown music star or the 'god of music'. (Read my other post on the gods of sports... those are Mars/Neptune people. )

Let's have a look.

Neptune in Elvis' chart is the highest planet at 14 degrees Virgo. Anytime a planet is near the midheaven it dominates the color of the chart. In addition he is Sun trine Neptune and Jupiter sextine Neptune. Add to that a Moon in Pisces and you have enough Neptune to be a super musician and a possible drug addict.

His Neptune though wasn't his problem. Neptune people and Pisces people who are ruled by Neptune are easily manipulated. Elvis had Pluto (in black) opposing his Sun, Mercury, and Venus. He had some bad people taking advantage of his good heartedness.

If you have a Neptune addiction that isn't healthy try replacing it with something less harmful. The beach, water, music and religion are nice replacements for drugs and alcohol.

Carlos Alcaraz Wins US OPEN - Astrology

Carlos Alcaraz just won the men's tennis US Open. He is the youngest player ever to rise to number one in ATP rankings. Let's have a look at his astrological chart.

What I find interesting is that transiting Uranus is currently hovering over his Sun sign. Uranus is about sudden change and excitement. Certainly has the new number one he is experiencing this now.

What is more interesting to me is the Mars Neptune conjunction. In a previous blog I wrote about sports heroes. There are a number of quarterbacks in football who have a Mars Neptune aspect in their charts. Tom Brady, Joe Montana, Joe Namath, Johnny Unitas, John Elway and others ALL have Mars and Neptune aspecting in their chart. What does this mean? Mars is the sports planet. It is the physical planet of the body and taking action where Neptune is the godlike experience. Put these together and you have a sports hero.

Carlos Alcaraz will have a LONG lasting career as one of the great sports heroes of Tennis.

Serena Williams Retires from Tennis - Astrology

When I heard that Serena Williams would be retiring from tennis I thought to myself this would be another good opportunity to test astrology and do it backwards. First examine the event then figure out what transit would match that event.

Any student of astrology knows that the 10th house is the career house in horoscope. So for a career to end we would need a slow moving soulful planet like Saturn or Pluto to be crossing over the 10th house.

Saturn is the planet of limitations. I've seen plenty of transits of Saturn in the 10th house where it rewards the person for their hard work over the last 14 years as it climbed the zodiac. I also see charts where Saturn reflects an ending of a career and a starting of a new career but they are connected in some way.

When Pluto transits the midheaven you can pretty much bet that the current career is over for good and that you will TRANSFORM your life into a new direction unassociated from the current career.

When we look at Serena's chart we see Pluto transiting the 10th house AND hitting her nodes! This is certainly an ending to her involvement with tennis. Her life is ready to transform into a new direction. Good Luck Serena!

The Queen is Dead - Astrology

If we look at the chart of the United Kingdom, we see that it is thrown into a state of confusion. Transiting Uranus is opposed Neptune. In Astrology Uranus represents chaos and change and Neptune represents your belief system. When Neptune gets hit by Uranus in an opposition your long-held beliefs change. It is uncertain as to how the people of the UK will look at the monarch going forward. Also with any opposition it represents 'other people' or relationships. So the United Kingdom is no longer sure who their friends are in the world stage.

What is also interesting to me is the Neptune is the ruler of gas and oil. We know that Russia is creating chaos (Uranus) with this supply to Europe.

Hopefully things will change when Uranus goes direct and begins to separate from Neptune at the end of May of 2023.

Leonardo DiCaprio is VERY private - Astrology

There was an article today speaking about how Leonardo is a nice guy but keeps his private life very private. "Leonardo DiCaprio may be one of Hollywood's most famous men but he's an expert at keeping his private life hidden."

In astrology what is the planet and sign of secrets? What likes to hide? A scorpion the minute you put it in the Sun it looks to hide in any crevasse it can find. The sign of Scorpio and the planet Pluto represent what lurks underneath or what is hidden.

So if we look at Leonardo DiCaprio's astrology chart we should find some strong Pluto or Scorpio.

As we can see he has his Sun, Venus and Mars all in Scorpio AND Pluto on his ascendant. That would represent an incredibly PRIVATE individual who would only let his very inner circle in on his personal life and even leave out some details from them as well.

They also say he is a very down to earth person and that can be seen with his Sun Trine Saturn at the top of his chart.

You can see how astrology can describe complex personalities. He is both private but down to earth... Scorpio and Saturn combination.

Don't Live Your Life by Astrology!

Many people ask me, 'Do you live your life by Astrology?' And just that question alone means they don't know anything about astrology. Astrology is meant to bring awareness to those who study it. It is not meant to predict the future and it is not meant to be consulted on every move you make. Astrology when understood properly will give you insight into yourself and the world you live in.

That in itself is worth a life long endeavor. Jesus said 'First seek the kingdom of God and all will be given to you' What this means is that you must be a seeker of truth. Don't accept anything blindly especially organized religion.

Be a truth seeker... not someone who thinks they found the truth but someone who is always seeking understanding and life will flow so much easier.

Sylvester Stallone's Divorce - Celebrity Astrology

Here is a simple textbook definition of a marriage or a relationship is in trouble when transiting Saturn is opposing natal Venus. Saturn is letting you know that something is wrong and it needs attention. Venus is there to tell you what area of your life is being affected.

As you can see in Stallone's chart transiting Saturn is opposing his venus and it was announced to day that he is getting a divorce from a woman that he has been with for 25 years.

This doesn't mean that every relationship has to end with a transit like this but what it does mean is that there is trouble and it needs to be worked out.

Is Trump a Victim or The Savior? - Astrology

As everyone knows Donald Trump is under investigation by the FBI. Half the population wants it to continue while the other half believe he is a victim. In astrology what planet describes being a victim? Neptune is the planet of victimization and sacrifice. It is also the planet of being the savior. This is why Christ is associated with living out the story of Neptune. Christ was both the savior and the victim.

Currently Trump has a Neptune transit squaring his Sun sign. He is dazed and confused with a lost sense of direction as the mist of Neptune settles on him. He doesn't know where to turn and his usually strong self is weakened. His ego (the Sun) is watered down.

Simultaneously he is viewed by his followers as an innocent victim in the matter. They feel for him as the boundaries between him and his base dissolve.

This can be a time of confusion when he feels that he is treading water and going nowhere fast. His problems seem overwhelming and is unsure of how to even begin to tackle them. He lacks confidence and, if given the chance, would like to escape from his responsibilities as his anxieties build.

This transit lasts into the end of 2023.

Astrology of Anne Heche

In my last post of Anne Heche I wrote "She needed this push to temporarily leave the material world and become more spiritual. She needed to meet her maker and readjust her life in a new direction."

I did think she would survive when I said she needed to 'meet her maker' but unfortunately her soul wanted to leave this earthly existence and start over. So she quite literally met her maker.

This life was just too drama filled for her and she needed to pass over and reset. She is most likely at peace now.

Neptune has a way of making you ONE with the universe and God when it touches your chart.
