by Robert Wilkinson

Mercury will enter the final degree of Pisces about 3:10 am PDT on March 16, where it will stay until it enters Aries 11:01 pm PDT the same day. Venus will occupy the last degree of Pisces from 1:40 pm PDT April 19 until 9:11 am PDT April 20 when it also enters Aries. Meditate well, since this window in time is giving you a last point to create the dream of the future you began in early March when Mercury went retrograde on this exact degree.

It's Jackie Robinson Day

by Robert Wilkinson

On April 15, 1947, Jackie Robinson (January 31, 1919 – October 24, 1972) took the field for the Brooklyn Dodgers and desegregated baseball forever. Jackie, thanks for breaking the ice so that America could begin to get over the virus of racism. You never backed down, and were classy in the face of impossible hatred, just like President Obama. Thanks for the grit. You were one of a kind, and a true Aquarian showing the world a better way.
