Hi All,
In Astrology there are many clues, cues, and revelations to your life’s potential. Your astrological chart holds the blueprint of not only your life but that of your parents, grandparents, and children. As an Astrologer I am trained to examine all aspects of an individuals astrological chart. For me, one of the more interesting facets within a person’s chart is the creative expression potential. This may cover the artistic, athletic, or sexual articulations that are often, but not always anchored from the fifth house. The fifth house is often referred to as the house of creative self expression (sex, sexuality, sex force, sex energy).
The fifth house is ruled by the Sun, and the sign of Leo in the natural progression of the zodiac. Venus is often thought of as the planet of affection, and feminine attributes. Venus also rules vulnerability along (more…)
Hi All,
Life is never short on drama, especially these days, and particularly in politics and sports. I remember way back to the time when I coached youth soccer and basketball. Fortunately for me the process of selecting the children for my teams allowed me the birth dates for each athlete. Although I did not have the times for their births, I did have the fundamental information for some rather significant insight into the nature of the children on my teams. Due to the small community I live in, I was also aware of the parent’s birth dates as well, which allowed me to determine the Level of each family.
When I speak of Level, I am of course talking about the general background of each child as well as their family such as the parent’s education, financial, and religious perspectives. The importance of this “Level” to (more…)
Hi All,
As an Astrologer many of my clients come to me when their lives have become too uncomfortable, too difficult. It happens to us all, sooner or later, but there are remedies for these disruptions in life. I am amazed at how many people refuse to acknowledge or own their creative gifts. Give this a little thought would you? I mean, we have allowed ourselves to become over booked in almost every department in our lives. Do you remember when you were a child, and the first thing you thought to do upon waking was to get dressed, and tear outside for some fun? Remember that feeling of exuberance and happiness you felt way back then?
Yes, yes, I know, life has become so much more complicated since those halcyon days of our young lives. We are now adults, in an adult world……right? I need to ask you one question though; who made, or makes (more…)
Hi All,
It has been years (decades) since I was last in a bar or as they are now called, a “club.” However, I can still remember the smell of old beer and stale perfume emanating from the bartender and waitresses, not necessarily in that order. For the most part, it appeared to me that the people sitting in those stuffy, and dimly lit dens of refuge were seeking comfort in a number of ways. First, there were those that were the merry makers, you know, the ones that were loud, laughing, and buying rounds for their friends. Then, there were those that sat tucked away, huddled in the shadows of the room in the miasmic wisps of cigarette smoke.
My memory was jostled to these long ago forgotten scenes of when I used to build houses for a living, by a conversation I inadvertently overheard while working in downtown San Luis Obispo. As a former carpenter and (more…)
Hi All,
I wanted to research the astrological data for the city of San Luis Obispo. In Astrology this is termed “Mundane” or Judicial Astrology. And no, this type of “Mundane” does not mean “lacking interest or excitement”, or “dull”, as you will find in the dictionary. Mundane, or Judicial Astrology is when an Astrologer puts the information of when a city was first incorporated, or when a state such as California, was admitted into the Union, (which was September 9 1850) and formulates a chart. Just as I would record a chart for a newborn baby, I would do the same for any “thing” or event. By doing this one can find out some very specific and pertinent information.
Well, I as I began my research I was almost immediately derailed. It seems that San Luis Obispo had a difficult time becoming an official city within the state of California. The information available on the Internet or (more…)
Hi All,
In a recent workshop I held, there was a buzz of new things to come from many of my students in reaction to the Jupiter/Uranus Conjunction in Aries. This is a reasonable expectation at first glance, but it does not hold up well to the Square aspect to Pluto in Capricorn (tension and transfiguration). Jupiter (ruler of Sagittarius/9th house) in Conjunction to Uranus (ruler of Aquarius/11th house) implies great expectations, success, optimism and the big break. However, in the sign of individualistic Aries the timing in matters of importance (Aries often only sees itself as important) requires preparation of plans, execution, and timing. Here is where much goes wrong…..or potentially goes wrong.
Jupiter is quite happy in the sign of Aries due to the lack of restraints, particularly when with Uranus; good times should be had by all with these two, at least this is how it might at first appear. On the other hand, Uranus has finally (more…)
Hi All,
Like most, we eventually look back to reflect on our lives, and those that we care about. For some, there are seemingly extended spans of time that carry our grief and sorrow over a longer distance than those of elation, and happiness. For others, there are times of happiness that are simply too short, too brief. As the years have gone by I have learned to separate the shorter from the longer. I have found that there is no justifiable difference between the two. It would appear that through a pragmatic and practical perspective, one seems to have more clarity than the other ; however this just is not so.
The planet Saturn is called the great teacher, and he apparently holds dominion over the lessons of reality, sorrow, and fear. Each one needs (more…)
Hi All,
This last month has been a hectic and sobering one for me, and I hope that June is less fast paced. In my practice as an Astrologer I see many people and charts, all lending to my experience and perspective. I recently had an experience through the lens of not only one of my clients, but myself as well. My client’s name is changed, with little personal information divulged here other than the described event; something all budding astrologers should remain true to. This person lives out of state, and resides on the east coast.
My client, whom I will call “Virginia,” has been with me for years now, and although we have met on several occasions we rarely see one another in person. However, over the years we have established a very intimate and personal relationship. Virginia is in her late forties (more…)
Hi All,
In San Luis Obispo, Morro Bay, and Los Osos most everyone understands that the economy is, and has been floundering like fish in a drying lake bed for some time. People are trying to do without what many would consider luxuries. I agree for the most part that putting off on the purchase of a new car, a vacation, or even a new set of golf clubs is probably a wise choice to make right now. We are all concerned with where we are going, and where we will end up, however worrying will only add to the daily stress of life.
Living with stress only adds stress to one’s physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions. As so often the case is, many of my clients, when they come to see me, are already in an emotional crisis. There is a sense of defeat (more…)
Hi All,
I wanted to give the volcano eruption in Iceland (Eyjafjallojokull) a little bit of time so that I could do some research on it before attempting to delineate the event. As it turns out there is not very much information on the volcano itself other than four yearly dates. The information that I could glean was that there have been eruptions in 920; 1612; December 19, 1821; and March 20, 2010 @ 11:34 pm UT. As you can see there are only two dates that include the month and the year, and only one date that gave a time. The time for the 2010 eruption is open for debate but it is within a reasonable time period to cast a chart.
Through my research on this volcano I read many articles that attempted to pin several asteroids to the 2010 eruption; Ceres, Pelion, and Vesta. The article that wove Ceres into the volcanic eruption (more…)
Hi Folks,
Well, it sure has been a long hard slog trying to shake astrologers in this area out of their trees. I have offered several free workshops to date, (more…)
Hi All,
Springtime is just around the corner along with an added hour of daylight. I have always wondered how as people, we think that we are somehow given or find, an extra hour of daylight as if we had it stashed somewhere in drawer. Perhaps this extra hour is similar to the “junk drawer” you know, that drawer that almost everyone has. The one where we keep extra tools, pens, pencils, paper clips or ties for grocery bags along with long forgotten grocery lists.
I have decided that I am going to celebrate the beginning of each season with a welcoming in “party” or ceremony. This coming party will be for the start of Spring also known as (more…)
Hi All,
I have been doing quite a bit of research lately on Occult Theocracy (hidden religious study) and the relationship between man, the stars, and their symbols. The books I am reading are many years of research and by many individuals over the course of hundreds of years. Still, everything regarding monotheism (belief in one God) and polytheism (belief in more than one God) end up at the same location. I am not going to tell you what the conclusions are simply because I don’t want to tread on anyone’s religious or spiritual beliefs.
What I have concluded is that not in the too distant past a person such as myself would be condemned to death for practicing astrology; astrologers were then known as “time watchers.” There are a multitude (more…)
Hi All,
The above quote is from a Willie Nelson song, a lamentation of the distance that time creates between us humans in relationships, memories, and experiences. I can recall even to this day listening to a teacher in high school reminisce about how quickly time was passing. He couldn’t have been more than 32 at the time and he was discussing this with a student, who was in total agreement with him! I have often wondered how a teenager could relate to this experience, and now that I am older, how a man of 32 could feel this way.
My studies in Astrology have helped to clarify my feelings of befuddlement at that time. Of course, we all experience life and its proclivities differently, but how does one’s perception (more…)
Hi All,
I am pleased to announce that in the very near future (end of February early March) there will be a Free (donations accepted) Reiki Healing Night in Los Osos. This will be for those seeking an alternative modality for what ails them; body, mind, or soul. Or, for those that wish to advance their learning of Reiki, or begin learning Reiki, and Reiki techniques from certified Reiki practitioners.
For those of you that would like more information please contact me at curtis@astrologyreiki.com or call and leave a message @ 805-234-7615. I look forward to hearing back from you, and those that may be interested.
