Running Against the Wind

In the last several articles I have been writing about Chiron. It has been thought of as ‘the wounded healer’, but I think this definition is much too narrow. In its highest expression it can be seen as a doorway to a different kind of consciousness which is symbolized by the outer planets of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. What I want to write about now is how big a shift this really is and also about how astrology itself needs to be conceived of and practiced much differently than it has been in the past. This is an important issue for the field of astrology to face or it will always be considered by science and the modern mind as mere superstition. I don’t think it has to stay this way.

A Creative Mercury Retrograde

I’ve been following the Mercury retrograde cycle ever since I started studying astrology back in the 70’s It happened so frequently (every 4 months or so) and it always seemed to cause trouble. I knew I needed to ‘figure it out’ somehow, but when I read the books and magazines on it, my own personal experience never quite matched up to what was said about it. Some astrologers gave strong warnings about not signing contracts and making serious decisions and they were really absolute about it too. But I soon noticed that oftentimes, this rigid position just wasn’t possible. In fact, the opposite seemed true in that there were times when it was absolutely necessary for me to make a decision.
