There is a new quasi-astrologically themed computer game that was released recently called Gemini Lost. I heard about it last month through an article on Todd Carnes blog, and I actually played the demo for a little while in order to see how the developers integrated astrology into it. It turns out that the actual […]
Back in March of 2007 I had the pleasure of attending and speaking at the first Blast Astrology Conference in Sedona, Arizona. The conference was organized single-handedly by Moses Siregar, and it was a smashing success, bringing together a broad array of both up-and-coming and well-established astrologers as speakers. From my point of view the […]
I was reading some random blogs tonight when I came across a video that provides a pretty compelling illustration of what hard aspects between Venus and Pluto are like in relationships. By hard aspects I mean the conjunction, square and especially the opposition. Such a configuration is usually most relevant in a relationship when it […]

I’m pleased to announce that Patrick Watson and I recently launched the Political Astrology Blog. It is going to be a frequently updated resource with news and articles related to the vast subject of political astrology. Patrick has already published some really great articles on the blog over the past couple of weeks, including an […]
Fox News recently ran a segment on astrology and health that featured New York astrologer Diana Brownstone. In what has become a somewhat infrequent occurrence, a major news outlet actually did a somewhat favorable story on astrology that actually featured a decent astrologer! I feel somewhat conflicted over the fact that it is Fox News […]
The world isn’t going to end in 2012, and people should stop freaking out about it. Especially astrologers. Seriously.
A few days ago National Public Radio (NPR) did a piece on astrology that focused on the recent ingress of Pluto into Capricorn and its relevance to the economy. That is how it starts out at least, although the tone of the segment and the demeanor of the guy who did the interview came off […]
