The Venus Occultation Eclipse Pt. 2 – Venus Going Stationary Retrograde

by Robert Wilkinson

Venus goes retrograde at 7:33 am PDT, 10:33 am EDT, 3:33 pm Greenwich on May 15 at 24 Gemini. This will impact us all for quite a while, given that Venus is conjunct the 2011 Eclipse points and Jupiter will be transiting the zone of this Venus retrograde over the next year, also boosting the influence of those 2011 Eclipses.

Archeologists Find Mayan Calendar Pictographs Indicating Time Beyond 2012

by Robert Wilkinson

Well, I sure am glad the world won’t come to an end in December 2012! (/sarcasm).

Carroll Shelby Just Died

by Robert Wilkinson

THE legend just died. Creator of the Cobra and other major league muscle cars, I once read something he said that I've passed on to countless others. To paraphrase it very loosely, life is about having fun and making money. If you're not doing these, then it's time to do something else. RIP Mister Shelby. You will be missed.

Einstein on Intuition, Inspiration, and Imagination

by Robert Wilkinson

I recently came across a great quote from Einstein: "I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research."

The Full Moon at 17 Taurus-Scorpio has a lot of aspect activity, with a mix of harmonious, frictional, and specializing activity that will expand some things, bring a death blow to others, and offer some extraordinarily serendipitous gifts and circumstances. Sun conjunct Jupiter with a few tredeciles promises a new day is dawning, so stay open to unusual opportunities and interactions!

A White Buffalo Calf, “Messenger of God” in the Animal Realm, Has Been Murdered

by Robert Wilkinson

This is one of the saddest things that could ever happen. I know some people just don’t get that creatures are also part of our One Life, but they are. One of the “Sacred Ones” has just been murdered. This is NOT a good sign of things to come. I sure do wish I didn’t have to report this.

Spiritual Astrology in May 2012 - It's A Happy Buddha Birthday at the Full Moon of Taurus-Scorpio, a.k.a. The Wesak Festival!

by Robert Wilkinson

A Full Moon represents a potentially enlightened state, where the Moon, which symbolizes form, perfectly reflects the greater light of the Sun. It marks a time when the seeds of the previous New Moon begin to manifest. The Full Moon of Sun in Taurus and Moon in Scorpio is a very special lunation, since for millennia it has been celebrated as marking the birth and enlightenment of the Buddha, said to be the first human to attain full higher awareness and then teach the truths that show all sentient Beings how to transcend suffering.
