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!

A Moon Book for Budding Astrologers
I’v published a book for a friend of mine. Originally, it was about interpreting the Moon in astrology, but it’s so much more than that. If you want to know how to interpret the moon and the fundamentals of reading astrological charts, check her book at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Moon-Matters-Discover-Hidden-Astrological-ebook/dp/B07HRCR9RR/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1542169184&sr=8-1&keywords=Aurora+Cantor Because the Moon Matters!
Neptune Transiting Ascendant
This is the major transit in my life now. So far, I’m feeling the effects, and let me tell you: it’s far easier if you embrace the confusion, take it one day at a time, and focus on the invisible and the joy in the little things than on the fact that you’re kind of … Continue reading Neptune Transiting Ascendant
Cowardice in the Chart: Mars in Aspect to Saturn or Chiron
**** TRIGGER WARNING: Normally, I wouldn’t write this. Hell, I’m usually too busy right now to update this blog on a regular basis. However, this particular post seems to have caused some serious chafing for some people, like SERIOUS chafing. Ironically, they all use fake email addresses. Anyway: I’m an astrologer, not a wet nurse. … Continue reading Cowardice in the Chart: Mars in Aspect to Saturn or Chiron
21 Worst Case Scenarios in Your Partner’s Astrological Chart
Sometimes I would get a call in the early morning from friends of mine who have gone out, met a guy, and wanted to know right away if he’s a good catch. Usually, I think that anyone you meet at a bar at 2 a.m. is NOT a good catch, so I was already thinking … Continue reading 21 Worst Case Scenarios in Your Partner’s Astrological Chart
Casting Charts for Weddings
I went to a wedding last night for a relative who isn’t legally a relative because I’m not legally married to her father. In a sense, I have a stepdaughter and now a stepson I don’t actually know very well. Someday, I may be a young step-grandmother. I actually like that idea a lot. There … Continue reading Casting Charts for Weddings
I am Sagittarius Sun: Narrative 1
This is the first in an experiment to make astrology understood through narrative. I hated school, but I loved college. I have been to five now, and now, in my mid-thirties, I am in graduate school studying to be a lawyer. I have studied literature, fine art, writing, ceramics, acting, psychology, math, and engineering. I … Continue reading I am Sagittarius Sun: Narrative 1
I am Pisces Rising: Narrative 2
Today I had a grilled cheese and jam sandwich for lunch and I sat down at a table outside the Daley Center. An older gentleman sat at my table. I have never met him before, but he seemed so kind and gentle; I probably invited him to sit down with my stare. That happens a … Continue reading I am Pisces Rising: Narrative 2
I am Mars in Virgo: Narrative 3
This is the third installment of astrological narratives to illustrate certain astrological aspects. I hate being reminded of my roots. Why do I hate this? It is not embarrassment. It is pity, mixed with anger: there is nothing wrong or bad about understanding how the physical world works or mundane things, and there is nothing … Continue reading I am Mars in Virgo: Narrative 3
Saturn Transits in Sagittarius, or Why I Haven’t Updated This Blog in a Few Months
Saturn is the silver linings planet, and I will always be kinder to Saturn in that sense, because I have a lot of Saturn influence in my chart. Not such a bad thing, though. People who don’t have a lot of Saturn influence in their charts tend to just coast through life unto death, meaning … Continue reading Saturn Transits in Sagittarius, or Why I Haven’t Updated This Blog in a Few Months
