Astrology 2006 – How Saturn in Leo is affecting all signs and generations

by Robert Wilkinson

Today we explore how Saturn in Leo is affecting all of us, some more than others. This powerful transit is a force majure in its own right, regardless of how any other planet is affecting us. In classical astrology, Saturn is considered to be in "exile" or “detriment” in Leo, due to Saturn’s co-rulership of Aquarius, along with Capricorn. Saturn was also in detriment in Cancer, since that sign opposes Capricorn, which Saturn is said to rule. What does this mean? Well, exile is to be out of one's realm, to be at a distance from one's home. Cancer and Leo are as far from Capricorn and Aquarius as we get in our zodiac. When Saturn transits Leo, we learn to restructure our heart, spontaneity, and how to enjoy our life more authentically.

Emotions, Self-Control, and Correcting Habits

by Robert Wilkinson

From the Magic of Space, some thoughts about fear, ignorance, and how much power we have to overcome these fairly easily. From Chapter VII, The Self - Its Relation to Space and Matter:

First, you should realize that all uncontrolled emotions are the result of ignorance or undevelopment, and this knowledge will rob them of their power over you. You will know that you are at the emotional point in your evolution, which is an indication of ignorance of your own power of self-control. Then you will begin to see the need of development, and will set about correcting the fault. A child fears the dark because he does not know its nature of its cause. If he is carried into a dark room and the light is turned on, and he sees nothing there to injure him, his fear is immediately dissipated. His fear was banished when his ignorance was destroyed.

Jupiter square Neptune and Sun-Mercury opposed Saturn – A Big Wave About To Hit

by Robert Wilkinson

There has been a lot of scuttlebutt around the blogosphere that there’s a feeling something BIG is about to hit, but no one seems to have a fix on what’s up. Vague feelings of impending doom or salvation are often characterized by a Jupiter-Neptune square, and regardless of what seems to show itself, a corner is about to be turned that will affect the entire world.

George Bush Astrology - A Look At What's Up In Early 2006

by Robert Wilkinson

Our prez is not a happy camper. Bluster and bluff as he may, he's fatigued, stressed, and has hit his limit of his ability to keep it together. There are several factors presently at work that are teaching him that he cannot disregard others in an interdependent universe, and there are consequences to be faced for his past crimes and hubris. Today we will take a short look at what's up for him, and why he's being forced to accept certain hard realities.

An Overview of Astrological Forces At Work in January and February 2006

by RobertWilkinson

Today I'll give links to articles that are still timely and relevant even though I wrote them awhile ago and some have dropped off the radar screen. In no particular order of importance, I'll start with this article on the Venus retrograde effect on your sign, with an internal link to another important article on how you can find a greater compassion at this time. It's still going on, and how we handle its lessons will have a long term effect on our relationships, values, and resources. This article reminds us that we've made it through the night, and it's full speed ahead, given the present aspects. More by clicking on the link.

Alito

A quick note. I'll try to post more astrology soon. For the time being, though, speaking of peculiar dream states, if you care about the Constitution of the US, go to Political Physics and read why Alito should be filibustered, and why you should contact your Representative and Senator as soon as possible. America the democracy is truly at risk due to unbridled executive power, and Alito is one of the architects of the legal strategems of the authoritarians.

Universal Thought, Knowledge, and Dreams

by Robert Wilkinson

From The Magic of Space:

Remember this: whatever you keep your attention upon will accumlate knowledge for your mind. All facts of the intuition come from the Universal thought. All human experience and activities of the earth are connected with our dream life, but they will not furnish us with the facts which are part of our intuition, and are, therefore, not part of the Universal thought.
