Recently I had a client who told me another astrologer told her that some particular guy was going to marry her. Now I am sure this sounded good to this gal at the time but what the hell! How in the world would some astrologer know what this guy was going to so, hmm? Don’t people have free will?

I thought this was outrageous even though I know it’s common. It is called “I don’t know what I am doing but they seem to want to hear this, so that’s what I will tell them.” ::rolls eyes:: God help you if you hire someone like that. Get this loud and clear:

Astrologers do not know what some random guy who lives down the block is going to do. We don’t know what some gal in Venezuela is going to do or even what out own mother is going to do and if you want to check this, just use your head.

Last night I posted a piece by astrologer, Claire-France Perez, Astrologer To The DC Madam Comments Regarding Her Case And Suicide.

Astrologer, Doreen Gordon (rightly) questioned the ethics of Perez’s disclosure of what would be presumed to be privileged information in a comment. Perez responds:

Dear people,

Debra Jeane Palfrey was clear that we (my partner and I) were going to be writing up her case. I had no idea it would come post-mortem. I was given full permission to write anything I wanted, but had withheld it until after the trial. I naturally read everything about the trial and realized so much of my first impressions about her were true. She had Venus trined Mars, both in their own rulerships or exaltations, which gave her an attitude of “ethics” and high minded politeness, a kind of Mary Poppins primness upon she relied like we might walk on boulders, and not fear their breaking up.

Saturn will soon oppose Uranus… let’s get this party started!!

Dear Elsa,

I know. Another sex topic but you can’t say I’m not consistent. Plus Scorpio moon is coming.

What common aspects in our charts would signal meeting a new lover?

All the yearly horoscopes say for Virgo’s this is the year for you to find new love etc. How do they know that? Obviously not everyone in that sign is going to fall in love. So.. it must be certain planets knocking boots with other planets and passing over your chart right?

Wondering Virgo

Awhile back I put up a blog asking everyone to recommend astrology books for beginners and came across this one, Breakthrough Astrology: Transform Yourself And Your World by Joyce Levine that belongs on the list.

If you are studying, this is a top notch “cookbook” on the aspects and planets in the houses and signs. The writing is flawless. It is modern but not campy and the interpretation excellent all the way around. Most importantly the material while advanced is accessible to the beginner.

I don’t know Joyce but you can meet here here: Joyce Levine. You can also watch her here: Boston.com and witness her manner. This is someone you can learn astrology from for sure. Enjoy!

I was on the phone with satori, talking about my life near the end of Pluto’s transit to my Moon

“You know that astrology conference is in Denver, there are going to be all kinds of people here, astrologers I mean and some of them are going to want to meet me. Hey! Let’s go over the Elsa’s.” I laughed.

Please excuse the tears in this. I left them in because they are Venus / Neptune of course. Stephen Arroyo’s book is linked below. So is Leonard Cohen’s Energy of Slaves. I think my 8th house is also vividly displayed here. I get pregnant… easy.

Astrologer, Kathryn Cassidy can always write but this is beyond exceptional:

SATURN/URANUS - who’s holding you back from change

Here is an excerpt:

“…So, just be aware that in your efforts to manifest change you will encounter people who try to disparage what you are doing.(SA/UR = held back from change by others). Some of them will try and sabotage your effort, others will just stop calling you so frequently. It is vitally important, especially to those of you who are only just encountering this syndrome that you don’t let it knock you back. You may start to question your self worth again when it seems that those who once really liked you now seem to be less enthusiastic. It is not about you but about them and - by the LoA - about the entire transition process and you must be ‘aware’ enough to see it for what it is…”

She’s the first I’ve seen to make the upcoming Saturn Uranus opposition personal.

Star Treks: New York has everything under the sun. Match your zodiac sign to all that the city has to offer

Lawrence Grecco writes regarding Capricorn:

“Your life tends to get better as you get older and as you slowly climb your way to the top of the metaphorical mountain. In New York City, you have the opportunity to indulge in your desire to reach the summit by rock-climbing at the Field House at Chelsea Piers (Pier 62, 23rd Street and the Hudson River, 212-336-6500 x 6577). Once at the top, you can power-lunch with local masters of the universe at two of their favorite Midtown feeding grounds, the ‘21′ Club (21 W. 52nd St. between Fifth and Sixth avenues, 212-582-7200) and the Grill Room in The Four Seasons restaurant (99 E. 52nd St. between Lexington and Park avenues, 212-754-9494). Structure and foundation are crucial to a Capricorn, so visiting any of this city’s impressive architectural wonders such as the Chrysler Building at 42nd Street and Lexington Avenue-a soaring example of the Art Deco style-is recommended…”
