To be loved by the moon

I am always having so much fun with scale drawings. These images are usually depicted quite small on a page in books, there just to show the size of the animal. I love adding some extra details and funny situations to these. :) Here is a series I have just made for an upcoming book. #SciArt

Alternative to the Lot of Union: Firmicus gives a Lot of the Husband in a section following his discussion of Union (which he calls the House of the Spouse) Calculate Husband from Mars to Venus cast from the Ascendant by day/night, use to determine the nature or qualities of the person #astrology

The Sun is making an overcoming sextile to Jupiter right now and I love this for a Sunday (Sun's day/Jupiter's night) What a delight 😌

I've pulled some recent posts to Threads about the Mars-Uranus conjunction in Gemini this coming July into a blog post Spoiler alert: folks born in 1982 will probably have an interesting Uranus opposition www.cobraandcrescent.com/blog/rupture... #astrology

Mid-May (14-20) 2026 might in some ways recall mid-September (18-20) 2025 Jupiter and Uranus will be returning to close degrees, both after being retrograde, so bringing their significations 1) back in full force and 2) toward a completion that they only hinted at previously #astrology

Praise Her 🦁💃🏾

I see too many talented astrologers posting transit updates and information on the regular to also see so many of these goofy-ass "astrology girlies tell me what's happening" posts 🙄🫩 Children were truly left behind if you can't take your own look through the tag or do a quick astrology search

Part 3 in my king/knight series, this one titled "Ministrations" 😁 👑❤️⚔️

Part of learning discernment in astrology is coming to understand when you're looking for patterns for the purpose of permission rather than progression or processing #astrology

The biggest tell I’ve spent the day down on the beach is a peek in my sketchbook later that day 🌊 trying to capture that kinetic action of the roiling foam and the heartbeat of the surf

Amazed that my talk about ancient robots and the link between technology and tyranny has more than 1,068,000 views! www.youtube.com/watch?v=czj-...

Sermon of bones

Anti-bonus points: it's also baked into my April MR

I might need to log off until Wednesday or something because the malefic conjunction is the day before my (natal 10H) Mars return and I'm already annoyed 🙃

I've just been asked for my take on a claim that "7 planets in Aries has never happened in 20,000 years, so this new Moon is extra special" First, it's a bullshit take because it's including Chiron, which is an asteroid or centaur #astrology

I wrote this back in May 2024, as a heads-up for astrologers and other metaphysical and spiritual practitioners ahead of Uranus's first dip into Gemini Read the piece in full: www.cobraandcrescent.com/blog/in-sear...

Last week, we had an overnight freeze warning This coming week, there are two days forecast to be 92°F / 33°C 🥴

The hummingbirds are back!

All these warehouse fires have me like...💁🏾‍♀️

My books are open and I've added some reading types to my list. First, I'm bringing back solar return readings. These will use predictive timing techniques to focus on the overall themes of the birthday year, as well as picking out high-impact months to note. www.cobraandcrescent.com/readings

As you're navigating the Aries pileup, don't forget the Scorpio house in your chart Mars is dignified, and directly ruling Scorpio as well But then... In being the final dispositor for the Sun, Saturn, and Mercury, those signs/houses are pulled in as well

You have not suffered until you've had a Leo Lot of Eros and an 8H Aquarius Sun

Current vibe: "I feel like the villain but really they never knew me" youtu.be/N1CqMvWOfgY?...

If the growing Aries pile-up feels like a crucible and you want to slough off the energetic dross, I have 2 energetic scrapers available in my shop Shipping to the continental US and Canada www.cobraandcrescent.com/offerings/p/...

Another solid Aries ingress Hello, Fire Daddy. Welcome home 😏🔥

This is where my Venus is placed and yes, scents draw me in like a moth to a flame.

When Venus went thru Taurus last spring, I went on a hunt for the perfect vanilla perfume. I didn't make the connection until now. When Venus entered Taurus this year, I was super drawn to a fig perfume.

Yes to all of this incredible thread! I’ll add that Saturn loves a chat with elders, learning about ancestors (you can two birds those), and even just tucking into some history. Catching the sunrise or sunset, or literally just giving some attention to the feel of sunlight on your skin? Powerful!

Also, I've said it before and I'll say it again If you have a strong Mars, masturbation is your friend, especially Tuesday morning or Friday night Venus is good sex Jupiter is generative sex

The Honey and Sweet Incense Atmosphere Spray offering from @bpal.bsky.social sends me back, in the most pleasantly visceral way, to a Coptic monastery between Cairo and Alexandria where I had a clairaudient experience "Peace is available to you." blackphoenixalchemylab.com/shop/luperca...

I think people look for really complicated or big ways to do planetary remediation and honestly you can go small with big effect 2021 was my Taurus protection year, when I started exploring scent

Do not underestimate the power of scent in general, or perfume in particular, when Venus is in Taurus

the world is on fire and I'm feeling some kind of way about it. nonetheless, I just received proofs of an article on race and blackness in Latin literature which I had to fight tooth and nail to get into print

Feeling called to open solar return readings again, but do things differently this time Stay tuned!

The fate of the Global Economy rests squarely on whether Israel can stop killing babies for a whole two weeks.

New Ibis Nest article on fixed star Alkaid is out! This powerful protective star has been an interesting one to research and work with www.cobraandcrescent.com/blog/alkaid-...

This is where I'm at today

Sometimes the biggest curse is being able to see how things could grow and bloom with crystal clarity and having to witness their death instead

My poor mom She was talking about wind gusts of 40 mph in the context of a market I laughed like I know what you mean; that trip to the Canary Islands for my 37th birthday, we had winds of 40 knots and the sailboat was sideways in the Atlantic She was like maybe don't tell your mother that 😂💛

I hope you find someone who makes you want to be the best version of your worst self 👹

I thought the "attack and dethrone God" feeling was just for the Saturn cazimi on March 25 But nope we're extending it to all of Aries season over here

I have the weirdest feeling, like I'm about to grow into myself I know the upcoming astrology is 3 parts wild and 2 parts grim (and maybe having the Moon be so super Hellenistically void in my SR x Neptune transiting my MC is shielding me from reality rn) but I feel better than I have in ages

More to keep an eye on for mid-April: Gulf oil shipments stopping www.newsweek.com/map-shows-wh...

More context on this #Artemis II image: * This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right * The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon: ☀️🌍🚀🌕

We're at the time of year in NC where I really hope the tiny flying flashes I keep seeing in my peripheral vision are hummingbirds and not waterbugs I've just mixed a batch of nectar in hopes of the former 😅

This is one of the reasons I think art matters so much: art is one of the ways love becomes visible. And perhaps that is why the whole thing can feel so painful when blocked. We are not merely missing a hobby! We are missing a mode of relationship. amayarourke.substack.com/p/what-we-ca...

I have just been given cause to wonder if I'm Hades or Persephone for someone given the current transits, and that's a very new perspective for me (...I think I'm Hades)
