I am expecting a period of great difficulty in the first 2 weeks of May. Whether or not related to that comet, I am unsure (this is more astronomy than astrology). But personally, I am more concerned with war/martial law or famine, so I don't think it will hit Earth.

I've been shown that there's a possibility of some other specific natural disaster, but that one didn't seem comet-related. Divination isn't really my thing, so I take it with a grain of salt.

If you're having some trouble, this is a really basic, straightforward website that can give you the results quickly.

OP,

Here you go...

Ascendant in Virgo 22° 18' 01"

Midheaven in Gemini 21° 15' 25"

Sun in Sagittarius 19° 42' 35"

Moon in Capricorn 10° 22' 21"

North Node in Libra 20° 27' 43"

Thanks! Yea I’m down under, in the Southern Hemisphere and it makes me think a lot about astrology and how it’s kinda different from this view. Can’t even see the Big Dipper but I can see Scorpius and Orion, even Corvus.

Hello thank you for taking the time!

I have some basic knowledge on reading the tropical system, but I still struggle for how to read peoples charts and reading the world chart, most notably the houses mess me up sometimes.

I understand how the planets operate, but how any tips on how to read the system and create such a picture like you have when detailing what’s to come?

All the best

Fuck how awful, Jupiter in Capricorn. Jupiter/Pluto is a sign of super success, according to the Magi Society. Capricorn is a worldly, serious sign which is ruled by the planetary baddie Saturn. Looks like this is showing major success for the government and emerging one world government to control the world.

Jupiter does quite poorly in Capricorn, actually. It can’t give any if it’s good, expansive and generous energy in that sign. So now spring is messed up and we’ll be unhappy next year when it goes in for good. (Jupiter spends one year in a sign)

Link to your warning post?

You've been pretty depressed for the past 2 years but something happened in December that somehow relieved you of those mental issues, and now you're more stable than before. There's still some drama, but you're no longer suicidal. You derive more joy from life now and have a healthier ego. Don't neglect your friends, though, and try to avoid being too exposed to the toxicities of internet and technology.

Health and work concerns have begun to trouble you in the past few weeks. Perhaps something along the lines of where to work and what kind, and how to improve your health. This is a good time to start taking care of your body. Progress will be slow but long-lasting. You will have a great new work opportunity around the close of the year.

Your relationship has been relatively stable for the past few months. It may have some hurdles in the middle of the year, but your friendships will begin to blossom then.

Your emotional, low-profile period is now over and you're becoming more of a public figure, gradually. If you have long-term goals of writing or speaking publicly (e.g., being a radio host, vlogger), those are clearer and more defined now and you're beginning to get some ideas on how to reach them. You will have a chance to fulfill it somehow in a minor way in 2022, because personal and family matters may delay you from its achievement next year. The actual complete fruition of this goal will be around 2031-32. However, you'll get a minor successful moment in mid-2025, albeit after some struggles and delays.

The blockage on your assets/finances, or the hindrance to your property goal, will begin to dissolve around late May. Good luck.

For my security, no. Sorry.

OP,

You're very good at this!

Thank you very much for sharing your time and talent with me!

I'll try to make some sense as I'm rather sleepy now, and my bad choice of astrological weather is catching up with me.

Try being more holistic than detailed. Logic vs. intuition. Logic wants to measure orbs and list down aspects but intuition wants to hone on what's most important before the least important. Say, a Sun opposite Moon transit cannot overcome a Pluto square Sun transit, by effect, but it can definitely amplify a concurring Pluto square Sun transit like a trigger. You may have to cultivate your "higher mind" for this (which is also why I find it a bit hard to explain, as language is a function of the "lower mind").

Signs are more important than aspects. A common mistake I see is depending on pure mathematics of the interplanetary aspects and neglecting the essence of the energetic thrusts of the planets. As I said above, think of sine waves than angles.

House systems were deliberately distorted to cause confusion. Explore the Whole Signs house system and see if you find that much more illuminating.

There is some essence of numerology in astrology which the signs and houses aim to demonstrate. It revolves around the numbers 1-12. The theory is that the undivided whole of the Universe was divided into 12 parts, causing 6 energetic oppositions. Aries energy, once born, necessitated the existence of Libra energy to counterbalance its existence, and so on. Cause and effect, Yin Yang, Tao Te Ching. Some energies support each other (trines, sextiles), some are so different as to be two different worlds apart, functioning on perpendicular axes (squares). The planets have their own system of opposing energies but they are not so direct and exact as the signs (e.g. Jupiter vs. Saturn and Moon vs. Saturn).

In a natal chart, the Ascendant and its ruler are significant, then the Sun, Moon, Nodal Axis, and any Stelliums. Also any planets at an angle (aspects Ascendant or Midheaven). Dignities indicate how well a planet expresses its energy.

In predictive astrology, the following are what I deem to be the "most important," which indicate the major environment upon which a chart is currently set. These must be analyzed and considered before the smaller picture:

1. Solar Eclipses, and lesser lunations
2. Transiting Jupiter and Saturn
3. Other outer planet transits/aspects whether to the natal chart or to fellow transiting bodies (i.e., Jupiter-Pluto conjunction now in the world chart, very powerful effect) -- include their direction and whether they are stationary
4. Transiting stelliums (huge focus of energy in one place)
5. Singletons by element

The "less important" involve inner planet transits, return charts, progressions, asteroids (which I rarely use).

Try to make sense of the most basic energies first before including the lesser energies. The basic energies provide framework, the lesser energies provide detail. When confused, remove the lesser energies from the picture one by one until you are left with a framework that makes sense.

This last one is quite hard to explain but I'll try. Think of the chart as a moving system, picture it a few seconds before its image was "taken" (like by a camera) and let the image move in your mind. The nature of this movement, the speeds, directions, etc. will influence the strength of these planets/points. As such, stationary planets are some of the strongest ones in a chart as their movement is more deliberate, slow, and forceful.

Thank you all for your questions. I'll see if I can return later. Goodnight.

I am interested in learning

First, I am sorry for your departure. I hope it is something you are okay with. My thoughts are with your loved ones after you are gone that they may heal swiftly.

I would be interested in learning your methods.

What is your opinion of creating a new astrological system based on octaves ?

I have been interested in learning the true astrology. I felt that the books are wrong because they are based on logic and have little to do with hermetic philosophy.

OP here.



Astrology is linked to numerology, which is why most astrological systems use the 12-sign system, as 12 is the number of a full universal cycle, a closed system. Not saying an octave system won't work -- it may, but the energetic essences would be very different. The undivided Universal energy functions differently when divided into 8 as opposed to 12.



Thank you for your kind wishes. It is something I am okay with because my mission here is almost complete. I am awaiting guidance on whether I will be asked to stay and offer more service, but I am tired. This realm is very "heavy" for people like me.

As for my methods...





It is pretty easy to "learn the ropes" of astrology through the widely available materials. One may begin to familiarize oneself with the basics of the Signs, the Planets, the Houses, the Aspects, and an immersive study/analysis of one's natal chart as well as others. It is important to have some mastery of the "lower mind" levels before moving onto use of the higher faculties. This may take months or even years.

Eventually the lower mind will encounter blockages and begin to see inconsistencies, inaccuracies, and encounter some confusion. The reason is that the lower mind will struggle to separate the distortions from the Truth, because that is a higher mind function. This may cause one to doubt astrology and even divinity itself. Conversely, there may also be a period of overreliance on astrology which can silence the 3rd eye/intuition which can make one feel even more lost in life and increase nervous energy. When one reaches this point, the higher mind begins to call.

When this period begins to set in, it may be helpful to consider the following and test them for yourself. These are things they either don't divulge in the books or deliberately lie about. These are my mere personal findings so take from them what you will.

1. House systems are generally fake. The most 'correct' one if any is the ancient one called Whole Signs. Any perceived accuracies in the fake systems can be explained away by aspects to the Ascendant or Midheaven, which are truly important points.

2. The lesser concepts like progressions, return charts, inner planet transits (unless they are triggers), and the like do not matter as much. When you see an astrologer sweating the small stuff, take from them what you can then leave. However, in the spirit of the Tao, occasionally a lesser energy will overcome the most overwhelming major energy in a "tipping point" or "David vs. Goliath" effect.

3. Eclipses are highly significant, particularly Solar ones, as they are the only events with the energy necessary to effect real changes. In a lesser way, lunations will support the Will of the Eclipse. All other lesser transits merely play the fiddle or support this greater Will.

4. This may be controversial, but Sidereal (constellation-based) astrology is not accurate. The accurate style seems to be Western Tropical, or anything based on the 12 archetypes of the Universal Mind and the precession of the equinoxes. Any impression of accuracy from the Sidereal system comes from its proper use of the Whole Signs house system (you will see that they rarely make use of the signs).

5. Real astrology is sign-based, not orb-based. Think of waves rather than angles. Out-of-sign aspects are weak and negligible (most of the time). The tightness of an orb only signifies the intensity of the aspect, nothing more, and cannot defeat the essence of the signs.

6. When highly promoted, widely taught, publicized, or when coming from an institution, be wary.

And an important point:

Spiritual development is important in learning astrology (and other concepts). One must be willing to sacrifice everything in pursuit of the whole Truth. The more one lives in Truth, the closer one's mind draws to the Universal Mind allowing one access to revelations unavailable to those purely dependent on the lower mind. Without this spiritual element, sacred occult knowledge like astrology becomes bastardized and toyed upon by the lesser evolved who are too concerned with being clever, losing sight of the forest for the trees. This can be useful as one undergoes the levels of lower mind mastery, to help one learn and retain better, but be careful, as demeaning sacred knowledge has its karmic consequences.

Furthermore, astrology of the higher mind requires considerable spiritual energy, the maintenance of which a high vibration resulting from a fulfilling spiritual life will greatly aid.

Try to see things as a child. An adult is far too concerned with being right, with popularity, with being the best or making money, which can be seen in many astrologers (or other gurus) today. In trying to achieve such things, they sacrifice their pursuit of Truth and limit their powers. A child sees clearly that "the Emperor has no clothes," while an adult is scared of admitting it out of fear of public repercussions, trapping himself in falsehoods. In seeing things with childlike eyes, one will think simply and clearly, which is important as Tesla said.

Eventually one will realize that Astrology is meaningless because knowing the limited language of the Universal blueprint is not enough (not even necessary) to evolve or have a good life. It is, after all, just an incomplete glimpse into the plans of the Architect, whose Will permeates all things at every moment. However, in order to reach this point, one must paradoxically first study astrology, which is why I think astrological knowledge (among other kinds) must be passed on.

In the same way, passing on knowledge will allow one to test what one knows further strengthening their fortress of knowledge. The Divine sends its messengers all the time, teaching us, correcting what we think we know, even in the form of critics or trolls. It is our own ego that blocks the way to knowledge.

To be break free of programming, being unafraid of admitting one has been wrong and discarding former beliefs when they no longer resonate, balanced with occasional self-testing, is the ultimate freedom of the Mind. "Free Your Mind."

Thanks for the kindly reply
Any way we can PM? I would like you to peek at my amazing Natal Chart

OP here.



You're welcome. I would prefer not to PM, but if you still want to have your chart read, you can just get your placements from this website:

And type them out for me here. As I said above I really only need the

ASCENDANT
MIDHEAVEN
SUN
MOON
NORTH NODE

To be able to offer you an insight that may help. But in your case, since MERCURY seems important to you, why don't you add that as well.

Will you read me please? 34, female dob:4/2/86 @ 10:50 AM in Scranton, PA

Thank you!!

Yo, Im a Scorpio sun, with Pluto-Venus-Mercury scorpio conjunct.

Why do I love Doom so much kinda like my hidden pleasure.

Also my mars in aquarius.

So we basically born in the same year,

Hello OP, thanks for your insights. Much appreciated.
Could you please go into more depth about the beginning of May, and specifically the full moon in scorpio?
That could be such an intense time, I feel like inactive political leaders could be dragged from their homes. Or, as you said, martial law.
Thanks.

OP here.




Charts reveal an immeasurable amount of information, but the following may perhaps be the most urgent point for yours these days:

You have been raised very strictly or abused by your mother who curtailed every ounce of creativity and self-esteem in you. As a result you grew up feeling ordinary and melancholy. But this also showed you the beauty and necessity of finding joy throughout life, which got you interested in the artistic and creative fields.

You seem to have fallen away from your lifelong goal of finding joy, beauty, and creativity from life. You may have fallen into a pit of despair in the past few months and now you are mired in toxicity, particularly coming from groups and the internet. Intuition tells me you have been taking the current world events pretty badly and may be harboring great anger against the powers that be. Something also tells me that a goal relating to your children or having children has been recently frustrated.

Approximately a decade ago you were far from this state. Back then you have been living your most fun and joyful self, perhaps even involved in creative pursuits in which you may have had a leadership role. You may also have had a fruitful romantic relationship back then.

Anyway, you seem to know in your soul that this is a necessary step right now, to immerse yourself in bleak truths, toxic mob mentality, and other dark "black pill" type of ideas... because you emotionally need it right now, to feel safe, and one day you will be able to return to your lifelong quest for art/creativity once the emotions have been secured. In some strange way, these are the activities that are "fun" for you right now.

The good news is that this is temporary and you will one day once more return to a life that is more fulfilling and happy, albeit busier and more professional/public. This will take some time, because you have some challenges to go through first in the coming years. Conserve your life force because you will need much of it.

One other poster here has some similar aspects with you, which makes some of what I told her also applicable to you, particularly:

You've been pretty depressed for the past 2 years but something happened in December that somehow relieved you of those mental issues, and now you're more stable than before. There's still some drama, but you're no longer suicidal. You derive more joy from life now and have a healthier ego. Don't neglect your friends, though, and try to avoid being too exposed to the toxicities of internet and technology (the part I emphasized for you above... this effect is much stronger for you than for her).

Health and work concerns have begun to trouble you in the past few weeks. Perhaps something along the lines of where to work and what kind, and how to improve your health. This is a good time to start taking care of your body. Progress will be slow but long-lasting. You will have a great new work opportunity around the close of the year.

Your emotional, low-profile period is now over and you're becoming more of a public figure, gradually. If you have long-term goals of writing or speaking publicly (e.g., being a radio host, vlogger), those are clearer and more defined now and you're beginning to get some ideas on how to reach them. You will have a chance to fulfill it somehow in a minor way in 2022, because personal and family matters may delay you from its achievement next year. The actual complete fruition of this goal will be around 2030. However, you'll get a minor successful moment in mid-2024, albeit after some struggles and delays. (I edited some dates for you)

OP here.



Interesting. I think you know what I'm going to tell you already.

But to clear your inner doubts:

Yes, you've been through so much in the past decade, but life is finally about to get better for you. There's just this little hurdle of this year where much responsibility is expected from you. Before you move on, you must first learn how to handle people and cut off who no longer benefits you and your life goals, and this is a lesson that you are almost done learning this year, with some final touches before December comes.

Keep working on your art. You may be required to get into debt, financial or otherwise, in the coming 2 years, to fulfill a necessary step to achieve your goals relating to it. It may be a risk you need to go through in order to expose your work to a bigger audience. You will ultimately achieve this goal around 2025, though not necessarily with as much success as you expect. Then you'll be generally free to enjoy the fruits of your labor in the years thereafter.

You may also be a healer or psychic of some sort, and the progress your goals here go hand in hand with that of your artistic goals.

OP here.



Scorpio energy thrives on risk. When things get too secure or easy they often throw a wrench in the machinery. The soul knows that stability and permanence does not lead to soul growth, so it seeks to keep things dynamically changing. At the same time, it knows that risk brings out the truest self, in itself and others, and Scorpio values self-truth and despises fakery.

You may subconsciously feel that the world needs a great change as it has stayed secure in its present corrupt state for far too long. "Doom" is the catalyst for that change.

It feels like a hidden pleasure because your life force stirs at the prospect of risk, leading to change and truth.

Your opposite and counterbalance, Taurus, values creation, stability, protection, and permanence.




Aquarius energy values brotherhood, rationality, and future-forward thinking. Many of those present here in GLP will have significant Aquarius or 11th House placements.

Hi, I’m not sure how I find my midheaven from the link you gave. I don’t see that listed. Is there a way to figure this out?

Rising Sign is in 05 Degrees Gemini
Sun 05 Degrees Pisces
Moon 22 Degrees Sagittarius
N. Node 19 Degrees Gemini

I will reply back if I can figure it out!

Thanks!!

Hello! Thank you for what you are doing!....


11/19/58...4 pm....Memphis, TN


I've before heard that at some point later in life the ascendant takes over. Being a Stellium Scorpio, that's what I've always looked at.


What are the influences of Taurus on my life?

What does the remainder of my life shape up to look like?

Any other advice or info you may offer?


Please and thank you, lovey....

OP here.



Hi there, you are right and I'm sorry, I didn't realize that link didn't include the Midheaven. Apologies!

This is a straightforward Midheaven calculator I just found:
