number six when celestial bodies, by occupying positions at 60° distance from each other, align in two grand trines opposing one other, they create what is commonly called a star of David geometric configuration. eventhough it happens at irregular intervals, it is not as uncommon as some may want to believe (there has been an average of ten in the last twenty years). during many decades (since the 1940s) the two outer planets Pluto and Neptune (transpersonal energies) have been sixty degrees apart, signaling a major civilisation shift and in recent times they were often involved in the star configuration . during the renaissance, Pluto and Neptune where also involved in such a sextile aspect . the actual interpretation of this six-pointed planetary configuration depends on the elements and the planets involved. in all cases it does mark a turning point of energies and indicates a time when, while having a complete cohesive vision (grand trine)  we need to gain objectivi

Annular Solar Eclipse - nasa annular solar eclipse time (9.5.13 > 10.5.13 for gmt) : Partial begin 21:25:10 Total begin 22:30:34 Greatest eclipse 0:26:20 Total end 2:19:58 Partial end 3:25:23 symbol : wisps of wing-like clouds streaming across the sky Key: The awareness of spiritual forces at work. Any emergence of life potentialities from the depth of the vast Unconscious is answered by the spiritual activity of superconscious forces in a cosmic kind of antiphony. The individual who has taken a new step in their evolution should look for the "Signature" of divine Powers confirming their progress. It may reveal the meaning of what is to come next. The "wing-like clouds" may also symbolize the presence of celestial beings (devas, angels) blessing and subtly revealing the direction to take, the direction of "the wind" of destiny. This stage concludes a process, having experienced which the individual should find themse

  A. Ruperti and D. Rudhyar my mentor Alexander Ruperti (1913-1998) was born 100 years ago he helped many generations of astrologers in understanding Rudhyar's thinking and principles  and in developing further his synthetic approach to astrology here is the link to his tribute to Dane Rudhyar (1895-1985) :  A Seed-Man For The New Era in 2000 Joyce Hoen wrote the following about A. Ruperti :  It was March, 1989: the planets Saturn and Neptune were about to meet again after 35 years, for the first time since my birth (when they also where in conjunction). Planets in a birthchart are lived either within, or in relationship with the outside world, and will then manifest there -- all astrologers are aware of how a chart gives us this interesting take on reality.  It was a sunny day in March and I was asked by Tees Reitsma (who had organized the 3rd international astrology congress of "Astro-Kring" in The Hague re this Saturn-Neptune conj

Pisces by Johannes Hevelius, 1687 (stars are heightened in gold) The last new moon before Nowruz and the spring equinox... occurs in the midst of a mega stellium with no less than nine 'bodies' (the Sun, Moon, five planets and two asteroids) in Pisces... with Mercury still retrograde,  and the Sun.Moon conjunction forming two major aspects: a trine with the Nodes a T-square with Lilith, Ceres and Vesta on one side and the Galactic Center on the other. This unusual stellium with a mass of planets in Pisces, is actually simpler to interpret than most planetary configurations. The planets are blurring each other's specific function; their activities dissolve and merge into one sole electromagnetic wave. What really stands out is the Piscean vibration, which results in a disintegration of the personality as a separate entity. It requires a "going with the flow" and a channeling of energies through the activities of

photo by Gada & Lodriguss "One of the most spectacular sights in all of nature is the corona during a total solar eclipse. The corona is the sun's atmosphere. It actually extends far out into the solar system, well past the Earth. It has an extremely wide brightness range of more than 10,000 to 1, and although the human eye has the ability to accommodate it and see detail in the brightest portions near the lunar limb as well as the faintest parts in the outer sections, normal photographic film is not able to record such a great range of contrast. One of the greatest challenges for the eclipse photographer is to record on film an image that even remotely approximates what can be seen visually." This eclipse totality will be visible in the south pacific from northern Australia to the Juan Fernandez islands.  Total Solar Eclipse chart New Moon 13 November 2012 at 22:08 gmt, for 7e15, 43n42 symbol 22° Scorpio Rudhyar: Hunters shooting wil

Satprem l'Homme après l'Homme (version intégrale en deux parties) Interview de Satprem   (30 October 1923 – 9 April 2007) par David Montemurri, qui a servi de base au film L'homme après l'homme. "On n'est pas dans une crise morale, on n'est pas dans une crise politique, financière, religieuse, on est dans une crise évolutive. On est en train de mourir à l'humanité pour naître à autre chose..." C'est ainsi que Satprem répond à David Montemurri qui lui pose, au cours de cet interview, un certain nombre de questions concernant la crise de la civilisation que nous traversons actuellement.

new moon chart for 15 October 2012, 12:02:31 gmt, 7e15 43n42 Sun conj. Moon 22°32 Libra symbol : Chantecleer's voice heralds sunrise Key: A creative and joyous response to life processes. The cock that crows as the first coloring of dawn appears at the eastern horizon is a beautiful symbol of the ability, demonstrated by all pioneers and cosmically attuned individuals, to give voice to what is as yet unmanifested, but is on the way to manifestation. At the ego level, chanticleer may feel that he makes the sun rise; but someday he will learn through painful experiences that to create is only to reveal what essentially is. It is the vivid recognition of the as-yet-unknown in the known. This symbol should make us think afresh about issues we too often take for granted. At every "sunrise" there are a few isolated witnesses that herald the coming of a new day. What is at stake here is the individual's capacity of RESPONSE TO LIFE'S RENEWALS — rene

She embodied the fertilizing flow of water from the fountain in the stars. In ancient Iran Anahita was a Goddess worshipped as personification of pure water and eternal fire. She was like a wild river and was described as driving a chariot drawn by four w

40 Rules of Love

The Forty Rules of Love by Elif Shafak 1. How we see God is a direct reflection of how we see ourselves. If God brings to mind mostly fear and blame, it means there is too much fear and blame welled inside us. If we see God as full of love and compassion, so are we. 2. The Path to the Truth is a labor of the heart, not of the head. Make your heart your primary guide! Not your mind. Meet, challenge, and ultimately prevail over your nafs with your heart. Knowing your ego will lead you to the knowledge of God. 3. Each and every reader comprehends the Holy Qur’an on a different level in tandem with the depth of his understanding. There are four levels of insight. The first level is the outer meaning and it is the one that the majority of the people are content with. Next is the Batıni—the inner level. Third, there is the inner of the inner. And the fourth level is so deep it can not be put into words and is therefore bound to remain indescribable. 4. You can study God through everythi
