"I choose to believe what I was programmed to believe!" -Superstitious Robot, "Futurama" And now, a brief pause from the usual activities at this astrology dating site to discuss Satan and grave-robbing... *** I've often wondered why astrology seems to work as well as it does. According to one viewpoint, it may work so well because astrology is...Continue Reading »

Is that big nasty T-Square still happening? Sure it is. But you don't want to hide under the bed for the next couple of years while it's in effect (off and on). You come to an astrology dating site for dating... not for doom and gloom... and that Venus/Mars conjunction is still happening. Get out there and grab someone to help you forget your woes ...Continue Reading »

This month's Full Moon is an interesting one, and one well worth taking a few minutes to contemplate. Any Full Moon serves to amplify and heighten the prevailing emotional tone, but (in my personal experience -- you won't find this in any of the books) The Full Moon when the Sun is in Virgo is usually one of the most dramatic of the year when it c...Continue Reading »

How do you describe a weekend that sees both an exact Venus/Mars conjunction AND an exact Saturn/Pluto square? "Love In A Time Of War"? "Hold Me, I'm Frightened?" Whatever you want to call it, this weekend provides proof that a lot of life boils down to what signals you're listening to, and what you choose to listen to. You could spend your time gr...Continue Reading »

The 21st of this month sees an exact Saturn-Pluto square, amplifying the effects of the ongoing Big Scary T-Square in the Cardinal Signs. A lot of tensions are building, and for many it feels like something ugly is about to burst forth. Fortunately... there are ways to deal with these tensions.  One way is to simply understand them. Anoth...Continue Reading »

The tension appears to have settled down a bit since last weekend. Mars is no longer fueling the Big T-Square, although it's still in square range of Pluto. The big news is that the Sun is rolling into opposition range of Neptune. Now, normally that wouldn't be huge news... Sun opposite Neptune has sort of an Ego-dissolving function going for it, a...Continue Reading »

Mars is currently passing through Libra, where it will be until mid-September. Most old-school astrological references make Mars in Libra sound like the last kid picked for the dodgeball team: kind of withdrawn, lacking assertiveness, and uncertain of itself. This, like any 25-words-or-less sketch of a planetary placement, holds some truth yet larg...Continue Reading »

Saturn shimmied his way on over into Libra last week. Lots of people are writing to me freaked that everything is suddenly going to get really rough in their relationships. News flash people - things were already rough. Saturn in Libra is just going to hold us accountable and stop us from pretending everything is okay if its not. Think of it ...Continue Reading »

Dear AstrologyDating.com: Your blogger sent me a copy of his upcoming entry on my passage through Virgo, and decided to take the time to point out a number of issues I have with it. Normally, I wouldn't take the time to write to an astrology dating site (although you know how I love dating... and astrology). However, there were simp...Continue Reading »

(If you haven't read Parts One and Two yet, you'd better go back and have a look at them now.) Finally, with our Cruise Ship analogy, let's have a look at that cloud of diffuse smoke we're leaving behind as we pull out of port. These are what are called the "minor" aspects. There are lots of minor aspects, which all come from dividing the circle ...Continue Reading »

Knowing the sign placements of your planets and how they affect you is like have a big pile of auto parts: you could deduce what kind of car they're from, but unless they are all connected up the right way, that pile isn't going to get you very far. The ways your parts connect to each other are called ASPECTS. The Zodiac, like any other circle, di...Continue Reading »

(Hey, why waste time looking at the whole week, when you've just got to sit at work half the day anyway?) Venus is in Aquarius, and is now pulling into conjunction with Neptune. This can bring a lot of love, good times, and romantic warmth and fuzziness. Of course, it can also brink drunkenness, delusion, and overspending... which at times can als...Continue Reading »
