People are complicated. Astrology is equally complicated. There’s no other way of looking at human personality that is as granular, specific and pointed as astrology (in the hands of a good practitioner). EVERY other personality system, psychological theory or perspective emerged from a human mind…
That sounds like a funny question, doesn’t it? But have you ever noticed that your sign doesn’t really get along with the two signs next to it? In fact, they may seem to be about as opposite as possible. This may seem like an odd…
Jupiter and Chiron have met at the Edge of the World. It’s a misty place where the physical world meets the metaphysical one. Some of the passageways you already know about are there, such as the wardrobe that leads to Narnia, Dr. Who’s tardis and…
(including a gift for you to listen to right now) Are you a “highly sensitive” Neptune person? You know you’re one if: You feel everything more than other people seem to. It’s hard to shut out the world. You have a rich…
If you’re ready for a change of mind, this Solar Eclipse (which is also a New Moon in Taurus) will definitely bring it. Oddly, it might be gentler than you expect. No need for armor—just allow your mind to become supple and let go of…
The world-changing square between Uranus and Pluto in Cardinal signs lasts from June of 2012 to March of 2015, and this month its effects are intensified by the addition of Jupiter and Mars, forming a Cardinal Grand Cross (sometimes called a Grand Square) in the…
All four of the asteroid goddesses lend a hand during this Libran Full Moon, which also happens to be an eclipse. Here’s the dilemma—should you listen to domestic goddesses Ceres and Vesta, who think this eclipse is about beautifying home and feathering the nest, or…
If you want to find the trash and the treasure in the zodiac, all you have to do is count by eights. Each sign looks 8 signs forward to the sign it treasures. Each sign also looks 8 signs behind itself to the sign it…
The Warrior in the Sign of Grace–Wha? Mars is spending about 12 weeks retrograde this year (from March 1 to May 19, 2014) and is traveling through Libra. This is an uncomfortable sign position for Mars. Mars is the Hero, the Warrior, the Pioneer, the…
Whew—I don’t know about you, but for me, this year’s season of multiple-retrogrades-in-a-row is absolutely relentless! Venus retrograde followed by Mercury retrograde—and look out people, because Mars retrograde is just about to begin and that’s the longest one of all. It’s thrown me off balance…
by Pandora Astrology intern Melanie Rose Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), one of the world’s best known psychics, was also a medium and a channel. He was called the “Sleeping Prophet” because he worked while in a dream sleep state and while in that state he channeled…
If you want to really understand people, you have to understand temperament. Understanding temperament means understanding the building blocks of personality we are all made up of. And that would be the four elements and the three qualities and the chart signature sign that arises…
A Relationship ‘Aha!’ Moment Venus is retrograde this month, something that happens about every year and a half. This time her backwards journey is happening in Capricorn and today she conjuncts the Sun. In past posts I’ve called this “Relationship Epiphany Day” but now I’m…
The Apple The apple is often used in literature as a symbol of forbidden knowledge, temptation and transgression, “forbidden fruit,” and by extension a symbol of love, sexuality and indulgence. Think of the Biblical Eve, tempted by the apples of the tree of life. Apples…
I just got a call from a first-time client named Erika who told me in our initial call that she “doesn’t want to know the future.” I think this is wonderful. It tells me that she wants to be in the driver’s seat in her…
December 21, 2013 to January 31, 2014 If you had to choose, which would you rather: Love or Gold? Sometimes in life we are faced with that choice, but it’s not usually very obvious. Would you pretend to like or even love somebody for their…
Imagine a cozy domestic scene, in a kitchen filled with good smells. Jupiter (a large matronly lady with an infectious warmth) is whipping up something nice at the stove while Saturn (a stern-looking but determined fellow with a beaky nose) gathers tools for a construction…
