Loved talking with T Susan Chang over at The Tarot Podcast about the question "Should I?" youtube.com/watch?si=BmLI435X0PbIyz58&v=rp3-HQRjPLY&feature=youtu.be #tarot

What a cool coincidence that I looked him up: if you wanna see a very nice Venus conj Jupiter in cancer on the mid heaven (which we will see on August 11) just look at our dear late great Jerry Garcia!

wow april 15-17 2026 has an INSANE Aries stellium. 5 of 7 planets there, with Venus in Taurus, Jup in Cancer. At least the benefics have some nice dignity while Mars is running the WHOLE SHOW and all the energy is concentrated in the Aries part of your chart.

Horary Friends: here's my piece on Frawley's Favorite Horary Timing Technique that just came out in OPA's quarterly journal. Short version: The chart has its own scale of calibration! If you can find a past event in the chart, you can time the future event!! Pretty magical! Like everything horary.

Mars in the 6H WANTS TO WORK HARD ALL THE TIME to SOLVE ALL THE PROBLEMS! There are always more problem so always more work, and you need to keep Mars busy to be happy, so hence 6H is house of Mars' Joy. I'm ruled by Mars in 6H in the Vedic System, and yup that that's about right :)

Sahl is easily my favourite source. Taken together, his "Introduction," "Fifty Aphorisms," and "On Questions" present a complete treatment of horary, and he clarifies a lot of tricky things that are unclear or missing from later sources like Lilly. Māshā'allāh's "On Reception" is a close second.

My dog-walk thought for today is that there is always something difficult happening around me, whether that's in my life, or the lives of people I love, or at a national or global level - just like the malefic planets are always somewhere in the sky. Happiness is often a matter of what I focus on.

Right now retrograde Mercury and Venus look like they are both heading backwards through the zodiac towards a conjunction with Saturn, but while Venus will complete this conjunction, Mercury will station direct and "revoke" the conjunction before it perfects. Super important for horary astrology.

I just did a natal consult for my mom, of all people. . . and WOW was it powerful/revealing to look at her sun, moon, rising, and especially how her Lot of Spirit completely captures her life's work, purpose, and calling in the world. A magical morning I'll not forget. . . .

Taurus risings -- 2024 is the last full year with Uranus in our first house. What wildness have you been the author of, these past years? May 2018: Uranus entered Taurus; departed; March 2019: Uranus re-entered Taurus, stayed! April 2026: Uranus enters Gemini.

@zahrtillery.bsky.social Please post or pin or SOMEHOW more loudly publicize + let people know about your AMAZING PODCAST! I would have started listening on day 1 if I knew about it . . . this is super high quality astro (book!) content!! caeli.institute/within-orb-p...

I have clients asking for synastry readings, so I wanted to design my own template to use . . . I JUST LOVE @oldschoolastro.bsky.social 's article here: oldschoolastrology.com/blog/2022/4/... which also sends you to Sahl + Dorotheus, and tells you Chapter and verse, which I appreciate! THANKS ROB!

I found for $40– elsewhere it goes for 200! An older astrologer friend said it’s a must-have … I’ll let ya know if I agree !

Where are the CONTRADICTIONS and PARADOXES in your chart? These contradictions are so central to our lives + stories. . . & while this post is inspired by a client with a 12H Leo moon, I know that everyday of my life I am GEMINI-ing in a TAURUS way, and TAURUS-ing in a Gemini way. . . .

I'm not the first one to say it but: AI will never replace a consultation with a knowledgeable + caring astrologer. The magic of a consultation will always be in the human connection, the exchange, AND how we (as Lilly says) "mix discretion with art."

I guess I am deleting my x account today? Yes? No?
