by Robert Wilkinson

I've been reminding many friends and clients of one or more of these over the past two weeks, so figured it may be relevant to what many are currently going through. I've been pondering these for several decades, and still haven't found a fourth "truth" that isn't related to one of these three.

Long Range Eclipse Astrology - The August 2008 Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius-Leo and What It Means Pt. 1

Soon we'll have the second Lunar Eclipse of 2008 at 25 degrees of Leo-Aquarius on 2:16 pm PDT August 16, which is August 17 in Asia and points east.

Overcoming Bad Karma and Ending Hopelessness and Other Negative Mental States

by Robert Wilkinson

They had obviously consulted a Vedic Astrologer, since they were asking me if they should choose one of two colors of sapphire to end their distress. It is common in Vedic astrology to wear a "prescribed" gem during certain periods and sub-periods of difficulty, in the belief that certain stones have the ability to counter negative conditions. What follows today is my answer, as a Spiritual Astrologer.
