In
April of last year, the gift of a dinette set coincided with the New Moon in my
11th house of friendships. My
kitchen is in the Helpful People sector of the Bagua map - a Feng Shui method
of charting energetic patterns. Months earlier, I'd had my home Feng Shui'd and,
since then, had been contemplating the connections between Western astrology and
Western Feng Shui. Suddenly, it was obvious: The guas (sectors) of the Bagua correlate
with the astrological houses.... (go to article) |

The
chemists of the Middle Ages sought to transform lead into gold. But a far more
interesting (and effective!) alchemy is internal - transforming the baser elements
of the psyche into spiritual gold. Astrology shows us how to spark these changes....

Isis is Back
The
Great Goddess Isis, as represented by the planet Chiron moving into Aquarius,

Chiron in Aquarius:
The Return of Isis
The
myth of Isis describes her passion for her mate Osiris, who was also her twin

The Mayan Calendar and
the Arc of Evolution
On January 6, 2005 I attended a mind-blowing lecture on the Mayan Calendar that
finally gave me the "big picture" of the history-and future-of all creation. The
good news is that despite some inevitable bumps in the road, the period between
now and 2012 will be one of infinitely expanding consciousness-ending in the Golden
Age we have all been waiting for....

Taj Mahal: Monument
to Love
That
powerful Gemini conjunction is what makes Mahal, in the African parlance, a griot - storyteller, history-keeper. He's been singing the blues all over the world
since the late 1960s, keeping the traditions alive, touring over 200 days a year....

Sun-Uranus Sirens
The
Greek story of the Sirens who enchanted Ulysses and his men has several layers
of meaning. On one hand, it symbolizes the magical effect of a woman in the full
glory of her feminine power, singing her song. Men cannot resist her. You could
even say that the crashing of the boat on treacherous rocks represents man's awakening
to his true self...

Natural Building Pioneers:
Building an Earth-Friendly Home
In
1996, Wanda DeRenouard sat on a mountaintop in Jamul, east of San Diego, gazing
out at the lavender peak of sacred Mt. Kuchumaa just south of the Mexican border.
As Wanda and a companion meditated on the stunning view, they agreed that there
was something special about the land. She and her husband Erik had recently bought
this rocky desert property, the site of a former gold mine and when Wanda's friend
suggested she build an environmentally friendly straw bale home on it, the idea
