Aquarius Papers just broke over 500,000 page views, according to the Top 100 at Salon Blogs' referrer rankings. At SiteMeter we're near 490,000 page views, but I didn't start using them until late February 2005, about a year ago this week. I started blogging at Salon in late April, 2004, so the probable number of visitors here is much higher, perhaps even three-quarters of a million page views, since Salon's counter is notoriously inaccurate. But for now, I'll mark the milestone with gratitude that I've been able to offer the ancient craft to so many over the past 20 months. And of course, the next half-million page views should come even quicker. Namaskarams.

An Astrological Milestone
Hey Robert:
Congratulations on the milestone. We are blessed to have access to your teachings online. Keep up the good work. Paz y luz, Felipe

Robert,
This news is truly fantastic! Congratulations!
Hoping in the next year that the number of views will at least double that if not more. I am very grateful for your time, work and numerous insights you have shined on in these tumultuous times. We are very fortunate to have you share these wonderful works with all of us out here. You are truly gifted. Of course, your personal consultations are equally incredible with so much more information and Carlos and I have gained so much from it.
Thanks again,
Vicki

Thanks, Felipe and Vicki. You've both known me for decades, and it is nice that such great friends still check in. And thanks for your vote of confidence in my personal readings, Vicki. There is a lot to know, and this site was set up to talk about everything I can't cover in the personal readings, as per requests over the years. Glad to know it helps people in cyberspace. We do live in interesting times.

Congrats and thank you for providing us with the Aquarius Papers, Robert! And yes, you're right - if RadioUserland is calling it 500,000 hits then that does indeed translate to 750,000 or more.

Well, Caleb, this site would not exist except for your pestering me to jump into blogging. Over time I have come to appreciate your profound (and precient) wisdom as to the universal access this platform offers to all of us throughout the world who want to connect to the sacred science. So thank you, since I have no doubt that the next half or three-quarters of a million hits will come much quicker, unless our fascist government finds an excuse to shut us down as mutant forms of "terra." But I'm just an astrologer, so I cannot imagine why they would think I or anyone here would have anything to do with people blowing things or each other up. I'm pretty clear about how in the long run violence is useless in accomplishing anything of value. Governments rise, governments fall, but the stars and their patterns are eternal.

Congratulations Robert on reaching milestones at both sites. I regularly cite info from here at our full moon groups. I also refer people to this site. You provide incredible information for free. We all are grateful. The other site is down again. I hope that it isn't being hacked. Blessings to you and your family. Here is to the New Moon/New Beginnings for us, our nation, and our world. So Mote It Be. Thanks again for guarding the "Old Ways."

Thanks, dcu. Glad so many get so much from what I write. And yes, the other site's server is having problems for whatever reason. I'm sure Caleb will get the the heart of the matter, and if we're being sabotaged, there really isn't much to be done, but if it is mischief making by the powers that be, you can bet I'll be screaming on some much larger sites about what's up. That will send a half million hornets into flight.

Oh well, a touch of gray kinda suites us anyway.
We will get by, we will survive.
We WILL survive!

i cannot thank you enough for all your writings; i accidentally got into your website last year and tried to read them everyday eversince; i do not understand much about planets and astrology, however, i fully understood your message and teachings. your messages are so enlightening, i wish you put them out in the daily papers for everybody to read because it will really make this unhappy world a happier and more peaceful place to live in. more power to you. i am very sure you made a lot of sad hearts happy and lost souls found their way again. keep writing and enlightening every mind and heart you touched.

Hi Lil star - Well, thanks for your praise and persevering through the more technical aspects of the site. My material gets read by professional astrologers as well as by those with less knowledge of astrology, so glad to know some of it is helpful. That's why I try to post articles that are more "metaphysical" from time to time, as that is an important dimension to all our lives. Will try to keep the Inner Flame alight! Thanks for commenting.
