OMG, My Sign Has Changed

As many of you probably know the internet is ablaze with near panic as people are being told that they may not, in fact, be the Sun sign they thought they were. I have been contacted by many students and clients about this and even got a call from the Associated Press about it. If you are interested, you can see a brief comment I made here:

Let me speak about the confusion and let you know that nothing has changed and that you are still the sign you thought you were. Actually, the confusion arises from two different things. The first is the issue of the so-called new sign, Ophiuchus, and the second has to do with what astronomers refer to as the precession of the equinoxes.

Dine Like Your Sign! Capricorn

It’s been over a month since the premiere of Dine Like Your Sign! and while I appreciate the enthusiastic response and kind comments, there was nary a report of culinary adventures; not a single haggis fête. People, people… Don’t tell me there’s a lack of courageous diners out there. Have the fast food moguls won and made us all lazy, line forming drones? No, I refuse to believe it. Yep, I blame the holidays. Surely there’s been enough time to recover now as we move on to our next group of guests. Capricorn! How lovely, they’re on time (of course). If anyone would be prompt and polite, it’s this winter born clan. And so nicely dressed! Shoes all shined, crisp white shirt freshly pressed with vintage cuff links to punctuate the outfit… It’s no wonder I think they’re so sexy. But I digress…After all this isn’t Dress Like Your Sign, so let’s move on to the meal. But if they’re punctuality and appearance is any indication, doubt not — these people are old school class.

Lunar Eclipse, Inferior Conjunction, Winter Solstice…..oh my

It is rare when three significant astrological transits occur at nearly the same time, any one of which is likely to be important, but that is exactly what will happening between December 19 and 21 of 2010. On Dec. 19 at 5:23pm PST, there will be the Inferior Conjunction between the Sun and Mercury at 28° Sagittarius. It will be quickly followed on Dec. 21st by the Lunar Eclipse at 12:13am PST and finally by the Winter solstice at 3:39pm, which is when the Sun reaches its southernmost declination and marks the first day of winter. I want to deal with these one by one, but as you read, I hope you will do your best to imagine that they are all happening basically at the same time. It is so rare that these two astronomical events haven’t occurred together in 456 years. They are all going to affect us in some way, though the people who will be affected the most will be those whose charts are aligned with where these three transits are occurring.

WikiLeaks & More on Sagittarius

I never tire of watching the way that astrology operates in life. Before looking at the astrology of the present revelations, let me make a few comments on my thoughts about the revelations coming from WikiLeaks. Some have called this a ‘historians dream and a diplomats nightmare.’ Right now, when you Google WikiLeaks, you get zilch. Governments are doing all they can to stop this ‘terrible intrusion into diplomat’s private thoughts’ and of course, everyone is complaining about ‘damage to national security.’ What I find interesting is that what is coming out is, to me, a bit reassuring and sometimes just plain obvious. It’s like seeing that the emperor has no clothes. Is this the disaster it is being made out to be? It hasn’t revealed anything nefarious.

Dine Like Your Sign: SagitTastius!

Let’s say you’ve invited a gaggle of Sagittarians over for dinner, but haven’t the faintest idea what to serve them. Well, you’ve come to the right place! In this monthly feature I thought we’d have a little fun (I know – since the rest of the newsletter has been sooooo serious…). Sure, the love of good food is universal, but this section is dedicated to placing some sure bets on gastronomical preferences for each of the astrological signs. Now let’s hurry back to your dining room full of hungry Sagittarians before they start breaking grandma’s china. What will they eat? Short answer – anything. Long answer – well, everything. Think of that adventurous spirit extending to every area of their lives. They may not have traveled the globe literally, but chances are they’ve tried about every cuisine known to bipeds, and then some. Italian? Yawn… don’t bother breaking open that jar of Ragu for them. Of course they’ve had their share of pasta marinara, but with so many foreign kitchens to pillage and plunder their tastes run a little more exciting and exotic. Count on anything with an international flair being a safe bet – rich and savory foods that taste like they were seasoned with a museum of spices.

Transits for Sagittarius 2010

The Sun enters Sagittarius November 22, 2010 at 2:15 am PST. Shortly after that, also on the 22nd, Mercury, which is already in Sagittarius, enters its’ shadow’, that is it moves into the area of its upcoming retrograde. The “shadow” refers to that space where a particular planet appears to go back over during its retrograde. Some things which come up between now and December 10, 2010, may come up again. Pay close attention to details such as any contracts you might sign or purchases or repairs of things electronic. On Thanksgiving Day, November 25, we may have difficulty expressing what we are thankful for as communication and gratitude may be at odds. Or we may just have difficulty finding something to be thankful for. It is always best to think before speaking since we may have to “eat” our words later.
