Had a lovely chat with Luisa Silva on her podcast 'La Arquitectura de las estrellas'. We talk about traditional vs modern astrology, the opportunities/pitfalls of AI, and I even got to show off my new astrology software Nechepso for a bit! Hope you enjoy!

@chrisbrennan.bsky.social  and I finally got around to talking about Babylonian Goal Years on @astrologypodcast.bsky.social  Enjoy!

Hey Genesis Assets LLC, fuck you! The term 'astrocartography' does not belong to you, it's for everyone. Today we've struck back! Many thanks to Denise, Shae, and Will from Kepler College, Kim and so many others I'm forgetting who've shown up to support this effort. Now we wait!

Yes, it's true, some asshole is now trying to trademark "astrocartography" in the US now. A response is still being formulated. Stay tuned for what action to take.

In astrology, the Sun can represent fathers and father figures. We just happen to celebrate Father's Day on the Sunday just before or after the Sun's maximum northern declination. Hmm.

I'm sorry in advance.

Here's my official ranking of the names Uranus almost had or could still have, don't @ me

Are there any other astrologers out there in Michigan? I feel like an alien here in Saginaw.

Watch me and my hair answer @sparklesofgold.bsky.social  ' questions three!

Had a great chat with the ebullient @mshelenawoods.bsky.social about how I got into astrology, fate vs free will and ZR edge cases. We also take a look at the ZR of Zohran Mamdani using my software, @nechepso-tmt.bsky.social! Check it out on YouTube: https://f.mtr.cool/rspsonkcgp

Honored to be one of the first English-speaking guests on the astrology podcast Astrología en Criollo with the lovely Agustina Sampietro. We had a great chat on astrology, AI and my astrology software, @nechepso-tmt.bsky.social , hope you enjoy it!

A second petition about the astrocartography trademark issue is being circulated by French astrologers, and they're asking for international support. Please sign & share to help protect the community from frivolous lawsuits, and keep this term free for all astrologers: www.change.org/p/prot%C3%A9...

You're welcome

Winding down from an overwhelming/incredible time at NORWAC. So great to catch up with old friends & to meet future stars of the astro world. So grateful to be a speaker/vendor, but especially for the amazing astro convos you rarely have irl. Astrologers are my favorite people.

Stoked for NORWAC! I'll be talking about: • Playing with Fire: Combustion & Visibility Fri May 22, 2:45 pm PT • Illegal Electional Maneuvers That Work, Actually Sun May 24, 10:30 am PT See you there or virtually: https://f.mtr.cool/ponijkuewz 

If there's one good thing to come out of this ♄-♆ conjunction, it's the vision-turned-reality that is the newest version of the @nechepso-tmt.bsky.social software out now. Going live at 1 pm ET with @nickdaganbest.bsky.social to talk astrology and take Nechepso for a ride. nechepso.com

I wrote an article in 2019 linking gun control to ♄ in ♈︎ that got a shoutout in an excellent @astrologypodcast.bsky.social Feb forecast. Very strange how things have changed. This upcoming ♄ in ♈︎ period may give us gun control, but not the kind we were hoping for.

Neptune at Civil War start: 0°♈︎ 1 Neptune cycle later... Neptune today: 0°♈︎ To answer your question Tim, I take no joy in saying I'm afraid that's what it's looking like. Just wait till ♂☌♅♊︎ on July 4th https://f.mtr.cool/rlfxdjfapi

♆ is in ♈︎ until 2039 •New idealism of sovereignty/self-determination •Media shift from nostalgic blockbusters to independent creators/new myths •Mainstreaming of self-defense tactics/physical fitness •Novel muscle-building drugs legalized/developed •AR/VR war journalism

This is not financial advice, just letting you know I'm accepting payments in USD and non-USD currencies now.

I built a new tool for examining heliacal risings/settings that will be in the next update of @nechepso-tmt.bsky.social. I was playing around with it & found something pretty wild. Look at the date Mars made its astronomical heliacal rising in Philadelphia in 1776!

Yesterday at the Moon-Mars conj. in Scorpio in my & @watsonfinastro.bsky.social's 4th house, we turned our furnace on again for the first time since last winter. Woke up today to smoke alarms/flames from the furnace. Called 911 & put it out. Fire Dept said it could've been much worse. All safe now.

Out of the blue, I had an odd urge last week to go to a Japanese tea garden in my city. It had been a while since we'd taken the kids out to do something, so we went there today and came across something, well, pretty weird. A peace pole, placed there on Oct 23rd 1987. I was born Oct 23rd 1987. Wtaf

Had a blast at the Kepler College 25th Anniversary Symposium. It was great to see old friends, hang out with Rick Levine and show off Nechepso. Also, I came in first place in the astro trivia competition and won this sweet mug, my chalice of triumph, my goblet of victory.

Decompressing from an incredible NORWAC. Thanks to everyone who attended my talks in-person/virtually or watched them later, I appreciate you! I was also struck by everyone's excitement surrounding Nechepso! The beta version releases tomorrow (I bet you can guess when) and it launches on June 17th.

🙏🙏🙏

Being here at NORWAC is overwhelming and incredible, just amazing to meet people in real life I'd previously only seen on feeds and small rectangles on Zoom. Let's just say Jupiter is doing the absolute most in my 11th right now. Looking forward to my last talk today on Babylonian Goal Years!

Launching to the public June 17th! nechepso.com

A bald eagle flew overhead as @watsonfinastro.bsky.social and I were walking. It was pretty close to us and was quite a sight. "Maybe this is another one of our animal eclipse omens" I said. A second later, the eagle crossed in front of the sun as its shadow fell over us.

My 9-year old daughter Joy is having a hell of a 10th house profection. She is a crazy talented artist and did all of the illustrations for my wife's (@watsonfinastro.bsky.social) new book on the lunar mansions. Very proud. www.amazon.com/dp/B0DWJYGTH...

Here is the chart of the moment the Dave Matthews Band tour bus accidentally dumped an entire jam band's-worth of human waste onto a boat full of tourists in the Chicago River.

Well if this big stuck boat in Detroit is anything like the Suez canal stuck boat then the very latest it should still be stuck is June 4th-6th due to the Moon being full and close to perigee on those dates. This isn't even astrological, this is just astro-geophysical.

Hi! Here is the auspicious looking moment I selected to begin my account on Blue Sky:
