Compatibility, Composite, and Marriage Charts - How Important Are They?

by Robert Wilkinson

There are several ways to find out how compatible we are with another, and where our points of harmony and friction occur. Many have compatibility and/or composite charts done for a prospective loved one, and these offer much valuable information. There is another crucial chart to have calculated before we marry, and that's the Marriage chart, done for the time of initiating the marriage ceremony. This begins the adventure, and gives new momentum and energy to a relationship.

The Nature of Human Reality

by Robert Wilkinson

It is useful in the middle of the radical changes we're all going through to remember that we are Eternal Beings having human experiences. What we must go through fulfills the law of our being and actualizes old karmic lessons while offering us opportunities to transmute our response so we don't have to go through them again.

Why Are Two People With the Same Birthday so Different?

by Robert Wilkinson

It seems that yesterday's post has stirred the pot of infinite questions, and offers us the topic for today. A reader asked how two people who share the same birthday could be "complete opposites in everything except determinedness and wanting our own way." Without giving away anything personal I can say the question was asked by an Aquarius. So just why are two people born the same day so different, and what would such a contact mean?

Why Are Two People With the Same Sun Sign So Different?

by Robert Wilkinson

A fan asked me the question, "Have any idea what affects differences within the same sign?" She wrote (edited for brevity), "I am a Scorpio and I have friends and family members who also are Scorpios. Typically we get along well and in a lot of ways are similar. But... there is this person who is a Scorpio and not at all similar to the rest of us... I'm just wondering if this has to do with the year, the particular time of month or which month (Oct/Nov) he was born in..." A great question, and one I've heard expressed by many. What does make two people of the same Sun sign different?

Brotherhood - A Fellowship of Cooperation

by Robert Wilkinson

Here's another gem from "Brotherhood," of the remarkable Agni Yoga series. Today's offering may help clarify the bond that unites all who share a dedication to making a better world. I chose the title in the interest of moving beyond gender distinctions, as I believe that Fellowship is a valid substitute for the conceptual terms "Brotherhood" and "Sisterhood."

How the Jupiter-Saturn-Neptune T-square of September-October 2006 Affects Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces

by Robert Wilkinson

I introduced what's up for all of us over the next few months in this article where I outlined the major influences of this important configuration. Today, we'll explore more about what each sign can expect to confront as a result of this dynamic series of aspects.

Fear Is A Dangerous Disease

by Robert Wilkinson

From The Magic of Space, some words of assistance for overcoming this crippling, destructive emotional virus while learning to be more conscious of your power to turn your mind toward beneficial things. This will be a critical skill in the coming period. A sample: "You are given the power of intelligence to choose those things to which you wish to respond. Your development will depend a great deal upon how you are able to choose the unseen vibrations. No one is immune to vibrations, whether he is conscious of them or not."

Astrology and the New Age - The Big Picture, Pt. 1

by Robert Wilkinson

Reflecting on some vast cycles of time, I note that we are within a span that only happens about once every 5 centuries or so, with a few variations. The outer planets, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, move very slowly, and correlate with larger spans of human history. They are symbols of greater change across generations, and across centuries. Which sign they are in shows what is revolutionizing, what is dissolving, and what is purifying across humanity as a whole. When they all are within a certain span, it seems that interesting changes and mutations in social-cultural manifestations occur more than at other times.

Explaining How Astrology Works Pt. 3 - Planets Are People

by Robert Wilkinson

Our planets show the people in our life. Each of the planets in our chart represents an important person in our life. Actually, they represent many people in our life, past, present and future. For example, when we were young our Sun sign was represented by our father and our Moon sign our mother. Our brothers and sisters were represented by other planets, maybe even an entire configuration in our chart. In this case, it may be that a sibling set off multiple responses in our life and character development, and helped us reveal how various parts of our inner nature are connected.

Saturn Opposition Neptune, Jupiter Square Saturn, and Jupiter Square Neptune in August-September-October-November 2006

by Robert Wilkinson

I thought we should re-visit this very important series of aspects coming down over the next three months, since they seem to be scrambling the attitude and lives of a whole lot of people on Earth right now. These outer planets don’t move very quickly, which is why it feels a bit like a few 8000 pound gorillas came for a visit and stayed for a couple dozen weeks! They're affecting the sectors where we have Leo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces, so everyone's getting major changes in 1/2 of their lives, and we've just entered into the most intense part of the cycle.
