Sun in Leo III: Serapis

Sun enters Leo III on 12 Aug 2021 at 7:59 am EDT. Serapis, a syncretic synthesis of Egyptian and Greek mythology, rules the next ten days. What does harmonious diversity look like? Is it imposed, or does it arise naturally? Is it chaos, or homeostasis?

Your generosity through other means, like Ko-fi or PayPal opens the column to any potential readers. I have closed readings through most of August, September and Octber due to my upcoming wedding.

Sun in Gemini I

Sun in Gemini I — at 3:37 pm EDT, the Sun enters Gemini I, the realm of Tethys the sea. She cares little for the games of land-dwellers, but reminds us to let our inner experiences guide us most deeply.

May 10 sees the start of the next decan, the one which Austin Coppock called “The Prayer Beads” , and which the Chaldean order assigns to the rulership of the cold and ponderous Saturn. A Venus-ruled Saturn is rather like a beautiful Gothic lady dressed up in black lace veils and rosary beads, so perhaps the image of prayer-beads on a string is appropriate. The Hellenistic text 36 Airs of the…

Astrology: Sun in Taurus II

Today, 29 April 2020, at just a bit after 5pm, the Sun enters Taurus II, which Austin Coppock called “a Linga-Yoni”. The Hellenistic era assigned this time period in the 36 Airs of the Zodiac, a fragmentary work, to the Horae — a group of feminine deities representing both the hours of the day and the seasons of the year, named Eunomia, Irene, and Dike.

Astrology: Sun in Pisces II

Astrology: Sun in Pisces II — twelve gnomic quatrains for twelve rising signs, and a lot of weird enigmas for the next ten days.

At 10:18 pm on February 28, 2020, the new Decan begins with the Sun’s entry into the Decan that Austin Coppock called “The Net” in 36 Faces, his book about the Decans. For us, this shows us a tool for porous capture — the tangle that grasps us harder the more that we struggle, and yet allows us freedom of movement as long as we do not resist. For now, the planet Neptune, the watery and…
