The Ethanol Slaves of Brazil

by Robert Wilkinson

Though I'm a big fan of alternative fuels and renewable energy sources, we find the miracle of ethanol also includes a chilling story of hell of Earth for thousands of beings trapped in a sisyphean dystopia exposing the true costs of cheap ethanol.

The Solar Eclipse of January 25-26, 2009 in Aquarius

by Robert Wilkinson

The coming Solar Eclipse will have a huge impact on everyone. All eclipses shut something down, taking away elements of our lives no longer true for us. Aquarius is the sign of collective expression, larger ideals. It is how Leo, the sign of personal love, exteriorizes. So a form of impersonal love will shut down, with the void sure to attract new forms of expressing this energy. The eclipse degree promises new forms emanating from Cosmos, and as it is conjunct Jupiter, we can expect major new openings.

Capricorn 2008 – Pragmatic Determined Earth Spirits

by Robert Wilkinson

January features the Sun in Capricorn, and during January 2009 we also began the year with Jupiter in this Cardinal Earth sign, as well as Mars the entire month and Mercury the last 10 days of the month. This shows that we've had a Capricorn emphasis in our Sag and Pisces areas, as well as Aries and Scorpio, with our Gemini and Virgo areas joining the end of the month. This would indicate that we've been organizing or reorganizing at least half of our lives and affairs, preparing a structure for the larger step coming in February.
