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.

Ouroboros
New horizons lie within your North Node of destiny, it is the Dragon’s Head in your chart.
South node is the path that lies behind you, it is the Dragon’s tail, the worn path you have taken.
North Node is the point where matters begin to ascend.
Use the power of 3 to find your destiny –
3 = growth, flowering, expansion, the mingling of opposites.
*knowledge of the past
*combined with hope for the future
*to create your reality now
If you meet someone with their North Node of destiny conjunct a planet in your chart, that person will help you ascend in matters regarding that planet and house in your chart.
They will validate and guide you into your future.

purple haze
A friend of mine once told me he could tell I was in a good mood because he could see purple lights around me.
He was a cool guy…quiet…known for being pretty zen (he showed up as Gandhi one Halloween), so not too surprised he could see my aura.
In the right light I can see a faint haze of color around people, and Ravi Shankar had an aura I could see plain as day.
Kirlian photography , also called corona (aura) discharge, is a high voltage, contact print photography. The process is simple. Sheet film is placed on top of a metal plate, called the discharge or film plate. The object to photograph is placed on top of the film when High voltage is applied to the plate momentarily to make an exposure. The corona discharge between the object and discharge plate passes through and is recorded onto the film. When the film is developed you have a Kirlian photograph of the object.

Interesting isn’t it, that the organic mushroom looks much more lively and healthy ?! Raw foodies won’t be shocked to see raw uncooked veggies seem to have the best auras.
It was also noted that where an amputated finger had been removed, the aura of the missing finger still showed up in the photo. This lead me to a fascinating article by Rupert Sheldrake concerning phantom or amputated limbs still having a connection with the physical body.
I recently had a computer reading that is called Aura photography, but is more a bio-scan of stress levels. It will shoot out a color report of your ‘aura’ – complete with graphs and scales of how active each chakra in your body is.
I had a few bucks to blow, and I was curious to see what was up.
What- are you kidding me- ?! If it’s weird, I’m in ! lol.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So of course, I had to experiment with some crystals and stones in the photo to see if it changed anything.
I am holding a very clear blue fluorite and a lodestone (bottom left), which changed the intensity of color a bit.
I intentionally fuzzed out the pic so the colors are the focus, so to speak.
(Snowy Owl mask for Pluto transiting my 1st…)
It appears I have a high-frequency aqua-marine aura.
A scored of about 90 out of 100, meaning my aura travels farther than most. Maybe you have seen it out & about…?
50 on root chakra, 60 in sacral, 80 solar plexis, 90 heart, 95 throat, 95 third eye, 90 crown.
Primary colors: blue = depth, green = manifestation
I am drawn to blue and green stones, Neptune (blue) squares to Leo (heart, green) I feel they fortify me somehow, it’s hard to explain, but they feel good.
Recently I grabbed a pyrite for a few days when I needed grounding, (it is carved in a heart shape-ha irony !) and it was soothing. Keep in mind Saturn (rules rocks, earth) rules my chart.
Despite the fact that I am full of earth, I am constantly trying to guide my Neptune, so I keep crystals all over me and my house and I feel it helps.
I am also glugging quite a lot of my homemade clematis essence (helps to ground dreams into reality) that I specially harvested during the last Pisces full moon.
Aquamarine aura means compassionate, peaceful nature, easy flowing relationships.
Giant Neptuner ? ~ bingo!
Also of note with further reading I see it is the color most indicative of polarities. This I find very interesting, as I have been told by an intuitive that I AM here to learn about polarities. That lodestone I am holding in the pic – magnetic.
My Uranus is oriental, conjunct Sun and Uranus rules magnetics and polarities.
My Mercury is at Mid-heaven and Mercury is dualistic.
Trickster/messenger.
What color is your aura ?

mirror, mirror
Reflections are Moon, mirrors Mercury, and mirages Neptune.
Wavelengths that make our vision see the reflection are Uranus.

Many years ago an Aquarius took a picture of me just like this.
It was one of the most beautiful days in my life.
I was surrounded by people I love.
Our sun was warm and bright and shining on our faces and the air was filled with magic.
I got the message about 3 weeks ago.
Now I KNOW.

heal thyself
The Herb known as the Albahaca, Njjlika, Witches Herb, or more commonly as Basil- is Masculine, Mars, Fire.
Gods: Shango, Vishnu
Godesses: Ochun, Yemaya
Medicinal uses are: Anodyne, astringent, diuretic, nervine. *
Hung from the door it is a blessing said to calm the heart. It promotes both love and prosperity. Rubbing the leaves on the body before love-making can heighten desire, and help ensure fidelity.
Use it in a hot bath, simmer on the stove or add to a humidifier to promote similar results. (It is a heady scent, so if you are smell sensitive, use sparingly.) It is best used in its natural state, rather than oil.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Where is Virgo in your chart ? Virgos rule the bowels, sorting the good from the gunk in the body.
It is the sign of harvest and this Virgo got a table full of thai/basil out of my garden today, so not much time here, I have to clean it !
Neptune is conjunct Chiron above us, and the Doctor is in.
Anyone else positively elated there is a time lady ?! …and that River totally kicks it ! Well, it’s about time ! lol. Brilliant *
Look to the house of Virgo for where you are detailed and organized. Planets placed there are likely to be where you show precision and dedication to the task, and to others. It is where you have strengths in problem-solving and anticipating the needs of others. It is your discerning eye at work (Virgo is the 6th house of work and service).
Look to Chiron (I am leaning towards Chiron as Virgo ruler, myself) to see where you help others through your passion for health and knowledge. Chiron was a teacher, philosopher, healer and herbalist, who through trying to heal his own wound, learned much through study and helped others learn and heal in the process.
Mine is in Pisces/3rd, mental and spiritual health is my work.
