Venus has been retrograde since July 27, and much of that retrograde has been spent in the sign of Leo. While it’s been here, it’s come in contact with “the big guys,” Saturn and Pluto. Now as it’s occurring, I can see what’s happening; it’s only a shift in human consciousness. 
During Venus retrograde, which happens once every 18 months, we feel drawn to ask, “What do I value?” Read the rest of this entry »
The Full Moon comes on Tuesday (the 28th), a normal monthly occurrence. However, this one is worth paying a little more attention to — it is also a total lunar eclipse. If you’re in the western half of the US or in the Pacific, you’ll be able to see it. (Other places, check your local sources.) In my neighborhood, I’ll be able to see it from about 1 AM to sunrise, which occurs at about 5:40 AM.
Eclipses always come in pairs and occur about every 5½ months. Read the rest of this entry »
If you have a sense of completion right now, there’s a reason. Saturn is on the verge of leaving the sign of Leo on September 2nd, where it has been since mid-July 2005. Saturn always brings out in stark profile the ways in which we are misusing the energy of the sign it’s in. While in Leo, the focus was on social issues arising from values.

It’s that time of year again — when the truth comes out. Luciano Pavarotti found his truth in leaving his body behind to soar on the inner planes (he was always partially there anyway). The shower of Iraq reports that have come out in the past week are part of the same pattern, splattering our windshield with stinging hailstones of truth about the lack of progress in Iraq.
It’s all down to Pluto, which is standing still in the heavens right now. Read the rest of this entry »
I wrote an essay yesterday about the eclipse that I didn’t post, because it didn’t get at the heart of the matter. Here I was, aching and sore, my back in a total revolt against the machine. I entered a time capsule. Suddenly I was in the mid-Sixties. Read the rest of this entry »
It actually started on Wednesday the 12th, but I didn’t realize it at first. We’d just replaced our computer router (it protects against hacking and distributes the internet signal on our home network) on August 10. Now, all of a sudden, we couldn’t get an internet signal again. With a feeling of a deja vu nightmare, I waited. Nothing changed. Resetting the modem. Being patient. So on Thursday evening it was down to trouble-shooting, since I could go out on Friday and take care of whatever we needed. Yep, it was the **new** (Cisco/Linksys) router. I took it back to the store on Friday and brought home the new one (Netgear, with more features and cheaper). However, in an indescribable but all too familiar experience, it didn’t work right. Yes, I got it to work on the default hardware settings, so for the briefest of moments it worked, but the software was set wrong for our system.

Although there are many speculations as to the rational reason why Rove would resign now, the planets provide a different perspective.
As I said in my August forecast:
“Saturn spends about 18 days conjunct the star Regulus, the Heart of the Lion (August 16 – September 2). It is a very powerful star of leadership that confers great rewards on those who have earned them. It regulates the use of power on the earth plane and ensures justice to those who wield it. It promises a fall from power and grace for those who misuse their power. If you can think of anyone who fits the latter description, you may see their situation take a turn for the worse during this time. Because of Saturn’s current connection with Pluto, this promises to reach into the highest offices of power around the world.” Read the rest of this entry »
Find out what the planets have to say about the economy and how you can ride the wave of the future in October’s forecast. Now posted at www.terrylamb.net.
If you applied for an extension to file your taxes this year, they are due October 15. And if you’re like me, you’ve waited until the nearly last minute to file. If you want to avoid being audited, there’s an astrologer’s trick that you can try, but you have to plan ahead just a little. It is a time-honored secret that anything started during a void-of-course Moon (that is, when the Moon will make no more aspects before changing signs) will come to nothing, and it will be the end of the matter.
