As we mentioned back in the winter when Pluto first entered Capricorn, our infrastructure (the bones of the world’s body) is at great risk. Capricorn, Saturn’s home sign, rules structure, while Pluto is the great destroyer. Batten down the hatches, because it’s already happening. More signs of the the times: as predicted, Saturn’s presence in Virgo…
Eliot Spitzer, the self-appointed “steamroller” of New York state politics, moments ago apologized for being involved with a prostitution ring. Currently transiting Saturn is conjunct Spitzer’s natal Pluto and transiting Pluto is conjunct his Saturn. This is an aggressive cosmic double-whammy involving underground, illegal activities and secrets (Pluto) and moral comeuppance (Saturn). Spitzer’s public persona has…
Barry Manilow said it well — youth is wasted on the young. That’s why the second Saturn Return can be a time of miracles for those between approximately 57 and 60. If you were born between late 1948 and mid-1951, you’re in the second Saturn Return right now — are you having fun yet? The second…
Our dear Cosmic Taskmaster has been in the news lately. The Cassini mission continues to reveal startling information about Saturn, and assures us that Big Daddy is correctly assigned the role of King in the cosmic pantheon.
We’ve endured two-and-a-half years of Saturn’s celebrity-obsessed transit through Leo, the sign of divas and drama-queens. Enough about Britney, Paris and Lindsay, says Big Daddy Saturn: let’s get serious. The hyper-superficiality of recent times is on the wane. At the personal and collective level, Saturn in Virgo gets us pure, or tries to. As with any…
Saturn is responsible for the sign by the cash register at your fave cafe that says, “Karma is a Boomerang”. Paris Hilton apparently can’t wrap her little blond brain around this concept, but she’ll be getting quite an ass-kicking cosmic lesson during the forty-five days she’ll spend at the local LA klink staring on June 5th….
After being called out for his racist, misogynistic rant last week, Don Imus was fired from both his daily simulcast on MSNBC and his radio show on CBS. Saturn is currently squaring his natal Saturn. Let’s take it straight from astrology god Robert Hand. This is his description of Don’s current transit: Most often this influence…
Last week, Elizabeth Edwards courageously announced that her cancer was back. Talk about incredible survival skills. Although she’s coping with metastatic, incurable cancer now, her demeanor is fearless and upbeat. There has rarely been such a public example of the right way to handle Saturn’s challenges. Born on July 3, 1949, Edward’s second Saturn Return begins…
Most New Yorkers recall with angst the mayor we grew to hate in the 1990’s. Rudy Giuliani seethed and lisped his way through town, shutting down museum exhibitions, defending corrupt police officers, and ruining our fair city with his “clean up” of Times Square. Before the world watched him do what anyone in his position would…
Poor little Britney Spears. Her slow spiral downward sped up last fall, when Jupiter in Sagittarius set off a period of wild expansion. Now, courtesy of Saturn, Britney has really hit bottom. The Cosmic Taskmaster, planet of karma, is touching off planets in Britney’s first house, ruling appearance and identity. Currently Saturn is sextiling her natal Saturn…
