Making Waves
We have a lovely Pisces (Neptune rules) Moon (feelings, public) conjunct chiron (healer) and Neptune (oceans).
Moon and Neptune both trine (harmony) Mercury (messenger of the gods) and Venus (love).
Neptune (oceans) trine Saturn (conservation).
I was cruising Radiohead info and found this great site Project Oceans.
I love it that Radiohead is so incredibly environmentally active – refusing to jet across the globe to play in a television studio – they dial it in – pointedly explaining why to do otherwise is ludicrous.
oh yeah baby I dig you. My Saturn has a crush on your Saturn.
Obviously, I’m not done talking about how great Thom Yorke (click here for more Thom) is, so pull up a seat Radioheads..!
Thom has Mercury, Venus and Neptune in Scorpio. Intense and powerfully perceptive, he is able to read the collective pulse (Mercury, Neptune, Venus in Scorp) of unconscious human need (Mercury opp Moon) and forge (Pluto rules Scorp) new tools for building a more environmentally (Saturn conjunct Moon) sound future for us all.
That Virgo stellium is a powerhouse !
Virgos appreciate life in all its forms. They see the web of life, the sacred patterns present from the micro to the macro scale. They are earthy healers here to serve and protect.
Thom has Virgo Mars (desires, action), Jupiter (hope, philosophy) conjunct Pluto (the big game-changer, regeneration) and Uranus (the wild and free). He is progressive and pioneering, a leader in the environmental movement from a musicians standpoint. The band has taken solid steps to cut the amount of carbon emissions they produce during touring, as well as backing ecowatch groups and artists programs raising awareness on global warming.
Thom has Libra Sun (balance) opposite Aries Moon which is conjunct Saturn (Earth). Moon and Saturn have a Mars flavor which brings a militant attitude toward finding balance with the public (Moon) and Earth (Saturn).
Libra Sun opposite Aries Moon conjunct Saturn – all are in Cardinal signs – they are initiating plans of action and making waves.
Thom is a number 5 life path, and has a 5 Sun.
5= Change, flux and adjustment
His Moon is 7 = Divine order, the mystical, a turning point.
Sevens are the triumph of spirit over matter.
Spirit (Sun) in the sign of balance (Libra) using art and music (Venus rules) to shine a reflection toward the masses (Moon) of what humankind is unconsciously doing to our (Mother, Moon) planet (Saturn, Earth).
I’m glad you were born to spin around on the planet with us, thank you.

Amazing, yeah !
Saturn incense is smoking up the room, candles are lit, music playing.
This one goes out to those with Saturn Rx (retrograde) in Aries; North Node of destiny in Aries.
According to the books, Saturn in Aries falls, pessimistic bastards may as well say fails. They say the default setting of Saturn is to restrict, to limit, basically to stop. Saturn is terra firma and crystallization. Eh, they’re half right.
When Saturn is in the sign of Aries, which is ruled by Mars, the planet of getting things done, kicking your life into gear seems damn near impossible some days. Stubborn jackass Saturn is diggin’ in for the long haul no matter how hard Mars pulls at the reins. You may be awhile, pack a lunch.
Saturn rules time – it is the planet of testing, perfecting, concentration and discipline. It is justice, thrift and preservation, and patience.
Mars needs running, fighting, blowing stuff up and is impulse on fire NOW !
NO WAITING !!
Saturn Rx in Aries is restriction, testing and perfection turned inward on the self. It turns the extroverted Mars power into introverted power, anger and aggression.
It becomes a driving need to JUST DO IT perfectly.
The first time – no waiting !
Retrograde Saturn serves to temper action, perfect and streamline it. When Saturn governs the self will, Mars is practiced, perfected, and efficient before its action will be allowed to manifest outward. Saturn is where you perfect the house energies; Saturn Rx is where you perfect the house energies to the point of over compensation.
Saturnian self-doubt and insecurity can slow the energies of planets it contacts, or the house in which it is placed. Although, it is often where you are extremely capable, insanely talented and precise yet remain unaware of it.
I was surprised to hear Thom at the end of this video asking for validation, let’s face it- he’s a musical genius. We both have Aries Saturn Rx, so I get it, the need for validation, for outside opinion. Perfectionism is also running high in his chart with a Virgo stellium: Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Pluto. Yeah, check. Get that too.
North Node of Destiny in Aries indicates a person who will create a life path of developing self awareness, independence and leadership.
It is a path of making decisions, taking control and blazing new trails.
Happy Birthday Thom !
You are amazingly talented with the voice of an angel…I am under your spell.

Source Vibrations
“We employ sacred geometric sound design, integrating golden mean mathematics, universal harmonics, and solfeggio frequencies for establishing resonant fields of internal coherence.
Embedded with mathematically tuned brainwave entrainment technology, our music promotes hemisphere synchronization, cognitive and bio-energetic evolution, sonically entraining the structures of consciousness into the transcendent frequencies of the Source.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The pineal gland is associated with the Sahasrara (crown) chakra.
Its prime function is transcendence, enlightenment and cosmic understanding.
This frequency will engender love and compassion, peace and harmony.
gonna turn out the lights go fullscreen and chill…

mystical tone drone
The official term for the use of sound and music as a spiritual path is Nada Yoga, which literally translates as “Sound Yoga”. Nada Yoga or Sound Yoga, with its impressive two-thousand-year documented history, is as formidable as Hatha yoga, the popular yoga of postures, stretches, and breathing techniques practiced widely today.
Etymologically, Nada is sound in the form of pitch, tone, and drone, while Shabda is sound in the form of word, meaning, and language.
Sound, in and of itself, is capable of awakening deep states of mystical consciousness that lead to healing and spiritual transformation, sound itself is a legitimate “yoga” or path, with its own unique capabilities for mystical union and self-realization. – Russill Paul

a light in dark places
May I introduce a very talented young gentleman who has been playing mandolin since the tender young age of 5.
Pisces Chris Thile formed the band Nickle Creek with members of his family when he was 8. Winning the national mandolin championship at the age of 12, Chris was well on his way to fame and fortune in music well before he was old enough to drive a car. Pictured below is his solar chart, which remember, means there is no specific time of birth, so pay attention to the planets in signs, not the houses.
Chris is a life path number 5, he is here to face the challenge of many changes throughout his life. His will be a life of freedom and adventure and finding personal balance.
One of the first things that jumps out at me is the Saturn (discipline, older people) tightly conjunct Jupiter (teachers) which rules Sagittarius where Neptune (string instruments) is placed. This speaks to me of being under the tutelage of all the great musicians Chris has had the privilege of jamming with at festivals across the country since he was very young. (Saturn and Jupiter in Libra, ruled by Venus which rules art) Pluto is working overtime transforming Mercury Rx (communication, rules Gemini, which rules the hands, dexterity, and young people) and Venus (his art) and his Sun (ambition) in Neptune -ruled Pisces. Chris also has Sun in the first decan of Pisces which is Neptune-flavored. Mercury Rx conjunct Venus shows me that he will only continue to improve with age as his Mercury retrograde fully blooms.
Mars, the planet of action conjunct Sun in Pisces is an aspect par excellence for musicians.
Check the solo below, it’s smokin’ hot !
Moon in perfection-driven Virgo squaring (internal conflict) Neptune gives him the passionate drive to learn (Sagittarius of higher learning) his craft (Neptune) until he is the very best he can be. Creativity and self-expression is his life path with North Node in creative, flamboyant Leo. If you have heard him play, you know he is frisky and playful, a bit quirky and he loves to have fun ! (Individualistic Uranus square Sun, Mercury Rx, and Venus from Sagittarius)
I give the love of Star Wars and Tolkien to Mercury conjunct Venus in the sign of science, Aquarius (love of reading, science) sextile Neptune (film, fiction) in Sagittarius of philosophy. Chris is not only very driven (Mars/action conjunct Sun), but he also loves baseball (Mars ruled) and is the great-great grandson of Baseball Hall of Famer, Sam Thompson (Sun along with Saturn can indicate males in the natal chart-and Sun rules Fame). Also of note is Sun (creativity, spirit) quintile (spiritual gifts) Venus ruled Chiron (wounded healer, herbalist and philosopher) which indicates generosity of heart and a willingness to help and inspire others via the arts.
Thank you, Chris for your beautiful song in Elks Park.
