Lightning Strikes As/& Uranus Trines
Currently, Uranus is trining my 2nd house Sun, MC and 10th house South Node. As the Sun has transited that South Node over the last few days, I made a re-connection with a fellow astrologer that promises electricity. I felt that ending that sentence with an exclamation point might be too much, but I’m pretty excited nonetheless.
I met her in Steven Forrest’s training program a few years ago, and our Suns are trine within a minute of orb. So, Uranus is currently trining each of our Suns. I spoke with her last night and we agreed to do a few podcast interviews of work I’m developing. She said the whole podcast thing was brought to her attention and reality by guidance, and most of my research work is brought to me the same way, so it seems to each of us a marvelous opportunity to do something, well, marvelous.
As we spoke, an unseasonal lightning storm was hitting her hometown of Portland, offering amusing punctuation to salient statements from each of us. We agreed that Uranus was giving his emphatic approval of this astro-collaboration.
The ideas I shared as potential interview topics piqued her interest, particularly the asteroid work I’m developing. But her perspective on the direction of astrology resonates entirely with mine, and I wouldn’t be surprised if we come up with topics together about where astrology’s headed.
It turns out that people need more meaning than traditional astrological thinking can offer, and it’s time to bring forward and broad(/pod)cast perspectives that support the self-development and empowerment people all over are hungering for and pursuing.
The first podcast will be on Arjunsuri (asteroid 20300), an archetype I’m presently introducing to astrology. It’s about the process of coming to believe what we believe and, ultimately & ideally, living according to conscience. After the slew of excesses surrounding matters of belief we’ve all been witnessing/expriencing/learning about/staring at with gaping jaws during Pluto’s transit through Sagittarius (beginning 1995), we can all benefit from use of this archetype and its message about evaluating what we align ourselves with and why.
I can’t wait to get this stuff out there, and I’ll post here and on my site when the podcast is available.
