Over the next 4 weeks (and 10 weeks due to the Eclipse effect), this New Moon Solar Eclipse in Taurus will help to stabilize much in our lives by eliminating the detritus of the recent Great Fracturing. This Eclipse will actually be a very favorable relief for many of us who have been dealing with crazymaking and other manifestations of the Grand Cardinal Cross we’re now beginning to leave behind.

Happy 10th Birthday To The Aquarius Papers

Yes, it was 10 years ago today that I launched the original Aquarius Papers as a Salon blog. A little backstory and reflection....

The Annular Solar Eclipse April 28-29, 2014 at 9 Taurus Pt. 1 - Who Does It Affect and for How Long?

by Robert Wilkinson

This Solar Eclipse will have a very beneficial effect for a very short time. All eclipses shut something down, taking away elements of our lives no longer true for us. Over the next 2+ months many will go through endings while finding a form of “immortality through giving of self to the race.”

Astrology in April 2014 - On The Threshold of an Annular Solar Eclipse at 9 Taurus

by Robert Wilkinson

I gave you some of this a little while ago, and it bears a new look, given we have a Solar Eclipse coming soon! As I've told you before, no eclipse of itself is "bad," nor do we have anything to fear. We cannot lose what belongs to us; but there are good times to clear out the old to make space for the new that is not yet here.

Astrology Class: The Core of Astrology – How Everything Relates To Everything Else

by Robert Wilkinson

One of the most mystifying things about life is how and why things relate to each other as they do. Why are certain sectors of both our individual as well as our larger reality as they are? How does the value of a thing relate to the expression of a thing? Why is fulfillment seen to be one thing in one realm, while it appears in a completely different form in another? Today we begin to explore the mystery of how things relate to each other.

Astrology in April 2014 – The Eye of the Hurricane Is Past

by Robert Wilkinson

Mars opposed Uranus and square Pluto is now past. Still, be vigilant, since an aspect often shows more powerfully after it is exact than when it is exact. So we’re still “riders on the storm” for a while. Stay balanced as you adapt to a different rhythm of unfoldment, and be exceptionally moderate in your responses. Grace, charm, and elegance accomplish more than blunt force anything!

The American West is drying up, and the days of wasting water are gone. It’s about time! Even if you don't live in the US, this is going on many places in our world. We can no longer take clean water for granted.

Astrology in April 2014 – Navigating the Great Fracturing

by Robert Wilkinson

Now that the site’s back up, this can post. As you know, the Great Fracturing of recent weeks has hit me three times; once in my tooth, once in relationships, and most recently in the massive global DDoS attack on all typepad blogs by destructive miscreants with nothing better to do than create chaos.

We're Back Up After A Massive Server Attack

Sorry that we've been off line for a few days, but some monkeywrenchers used this time of the Great Fracturing to do a DDoS attack on the servers and ALL typepad blogs went down globally. It's not the first time, though we can hope it's the last. There's got to be a better way to live than to fight destructive jerks with too much time on their hands. And of course, it reminds me that it's easier to destroy than to build.
