Down the lonely dark road of your mind, you walk aimlessly, wondering how you got there, and what's waiting for you at the other end of the light. This is going to be a special Mercury retrograde for me, because it’s in Scorpio, which is my natal Mercury sign, and I have Mercury retrograde in … Continue reading Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio!

Gratitude Attitude: Actual Gratitude in Astrology
This is pretty much where I am in my mind all the time now. I daydream a lot now. Like, a lot more than I used to during my very active Saturn transits of the past. One of my favorite things to do is to have unstructured quiet time where I either listen to music … Continue reading Gratitude Attitude: Actual Gratitude in Astrology
You Can’t Always Get What You Want, Another Essay on Love Astrology: The 5th House and Identity
Try to stay alive long enough to experience the joy of melting onto the object of your affection at least once. It’s totally worth the wait. The fifth house is the house of romance and the house of self-expression. That’s not an accident: we tend to crush on and pursue the people who represent something … Continue reading You Can’t Always Get What You Want, Another Essay on Love Astrology: The 5th House and Identity
Neptunian Thoughts
Pretty much. My boyfriend gets mad at me for spending the weekend writing articles. You don’t have to do that, he says. But I kind of do, because even though yes, I could be going out, and yes, there are other things I need to do, I really miss being a professional writer. But I … Continue reading Neptunian Thoughts

Fleeting Virgo Thoughts, Mars Return, and a Bit on Medical Astrology
I will put this poultice on your soul. Here’s a tip: The 5th house shows how you make and relate to friends one-on-one. The 11th house is cliques and peer groups. Your fifth house is who you have a slumber party with, who you paint toenails with, who you sit around watching the game with, … Continue reading Fleeting Virgo Thoughts, Mars Return, and a Bit on Medical Astrology
Can’t See Gay in a Natal Chart
Full disclosure: I can’t figure out homosexuality or other-than-heterosexuality in anyone’s natal chart for certain, but I also don’t think most people can either. I mean that I can’t find any cookie-cutter formula for determining sexual or romantic preference. I also think that most astrologers who say they can are just reflecting their own views … Continue reading Can’t See Gay in a Natal Chart
Venus and Aesthetic in the Natal Chart
Venus, by sign and house, is your aesthetic. Actually, if you’re trying to rectify a natal chart, figuring out what house Venus is in is actually quite helpful. Just ask them (or yourself, or someone who knows them) “where does this person seek out beauty, and where do they put beauty out in the world?” … Continue reading Venus and Aesthetic in the Natal Chart
Shyness in the Astrological Chart
This is a social butterfly. I have tried to describe shyness to others. Mine comes and goes, but it seems this Neptune transit to my first house has made it come and stay. It has nothing to do with how you look or how you actually feel about yourself, or what others actually think of … Continue reading Shyness in the Astrological Chart
Pluto and the Divine Love
I made an interesting astrological discovery today of a personal sort. See, I’m not a Plutonian person. I have an overcompensating, singleton Pluto, but I’m not Plutonian. Incidentally, Pluto is in my 7th house, intercepted, and my partners, as in people I’ve made commitments to, or were heavily emotionally involved with, are Plutonian types. This … Continue reading Pluto and the Divine Love
