On The Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 7.2 – Opus Dei and the Knights – Part II

In Part I, I explored the parameters of Opus Dei's central symbol. I did so not for abstract means, but because it is the best place to start in a very serious unpacking of the astrological efforts of the Vatican and Opus Dei. Yes, they were doing astrology, and the following delineation will show this … Continue reading On The Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 7.2 – Opus Dei and the Knights – Part II

On The Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 6.3 – The Moon’s Exaltation and the Pleiades

On The Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 6.3 – The Moon’s Exaltation and the Pleiades

A very astute astrologer asked (on Facebook), "Maybe the Moon's exaltation was based on Algol and not the Pleiades?" I can't recall the lad's name, but it's a good question, as Algol's fixed (Fagan-Allen) ecliptic longitude is about 1°30' distant from 3° Taurus, a tad closer than Alcyone's longitude. However, the answer, is no. It's … Continue reading On The Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 6.3 – The Moon’s Exaltation and the Pleiades

On The Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 5.1 – Events of Note Intro; the Covenant School Shooting

On The Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 9 – The “Sibly Chart” Decoded

On The Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 9 – The “Sibly Chart” Decoded

For so many decades, USA astrologers have rallied around one radix for the beginning of the "United States of America," known as the Sibly Chart (often misspelled as the Sibley Chart). Much has been conjured up about this particular radix - so much so that it has taken on a life of its own, used … Continue reading On The Exaltation of Mars – Chapter 9 – The “Sibly Chart” Decoded

In parts I thru IV of this series, I laid out some well-known historical astrology, along with some perhaps not so well-known astro-myth, in hopes of establishing prerequisite bases for determining what, exactly, is the "State of Israel," and what the timing of certain current events mean amidst the collective sieve of history. We simply … Continue reading Ed Kohout and the Third Rail of Astro-Politics: Zionism and Astrology, Part V

Ed Kohout and the Third Rail of Astro-Politics: Zionism and Astrology, Part IV

Ed Kohout and the Third Rail of Astro-Politics: Zionism and Astrology, Part IV

In Parts I thru III of this illustrious series, I put forth the case that "Zionism" is a quest that goes back to the era of the Crusades, and that the vaunted Knights Templars were the original legion of Zionists. It was they who reclaimed Al-Aqsa, beginning in 1119, by restoring the compound, enhancing it … Continue reading Ed Kohout and the Third Rail of Astro-Politics: Zionism and Astrology, Part IV
