Michael Lutin just passed away and left a big hole in the astrology community. It is my honor to have been a good friend of Michael’s, and this is a tribute to both his brilliance as an astrologer and his loyalty as a friend. Michael was a hardworking astrologer, who wrote four books and copious amounts of articles. He lectured all over the world and mentored many young astrologers. He was a brilliant astrologer, author, consultant and speaker. He was deeply spiritual and psychologically oriente…

Finally, the Presidential Election is upon us, and it has quite the astrology chart. I don’t usually write about event charts, but this one is important. There are very unusual planetary aspects, so it was worthy of an entire article. The Presidential Election will occur on November 5, 2024. I calculated the chart for 10 p.m. in Washington DC. This election happens on the first Tuesday in November, which will always have the Sun in Scorpio. This chart has a focused Capricorn Moon and a 29 degree…

Astrology is an amazing way to find out about a person. The birth chart shows our lifetime purpose and our talents, as well as our challenges. Tim Walz is the Democratic candidate for Vice President in the upcoming presidential election on November 5th. Now is the time to get to know him before the election. Tim’s mother was a homemaker and was raised on a farm. His father was a teacher, a school superintendent and a U.S. Veteran, having served in the Korean War. After finishing high school, Tim…

We are in historic times, and astrology always makes sense of unusual situations. President Biden graciously stepped down and endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris, for the Democratic presidential candidate to run in the election on November 5, 2024. Of course, I immediately looked at her chart and decided to share it with everyone. This is the time to get to know her. Kamala was born on October 20, 1964, at 9:28 pm in Oakland, CA. Her Sun is in balanced Libra. Her Moon is in fearless Aries…

This will be an extremely high energy summer! Mars is joining Jupiter, and to give them an extra boost, they will both be in the dynamic sign of Gemini. This powerful conjunction dominates throughout summer and into early fall. Since Mars has a two-year orbit and Jupiter’s orbit is twelve years, they only join each other once in a little over every two years. This time they are joining while transiting through Gemini, which will make them edgy, to say the least. Mars will be joining Jupiter from…

Neptune is the planet of maya or illusion and will soon be changing signs from Pisces to Aries. This will be a key component in the next phase of growth for humanity. Although Neptune won’t enter Aries for a while, this is a suitable time to prepare for this rare ingress. Neptune is associated with the water sign of Pisces. They are both involved with altered states of consciousness, including meditation, prayer, healing and spirituality. It is the psychic planet. Neptune is one of the slowest p…

We’re entering a new phase, a Gemini phase. Yes, the Sun enters Gemini each year around May 20th, but Jupiter only transits through Gemini once every 12 years. They are both there now and are having a very lively Gemini party. Jupiter will enter the sign of Gemini on May 25th and will remain there until June 10th, 2025. When a slower-moving planet enters a new sign, it usually makes a grand entrance with an entourage. Jupiter’s entourage includes none other than the Sun and Venus. Venus makes an…

Now that the bizarre April 8th Solar Eclipse is over, we’re done with extraordinary astrology, right? Not really. The planets are in a remarkably close grouping for a few months and won’t turn into a semi-normal chart until after July 4th. This phase is a turning point in each of our lives, as well as for humanity as a whole. It is so important that I needed to write about it. I’ll be looking at the charts at monthly intervals. Let’s start with the April 8th Solar Eclipse chart, which I admit i…

Experience the rare Solar Eclipse on April 8th in Tucson where the Sun will be 75% eclipsed. I will be explaining the Eclipse as it occurs in a fun and educational way. My co-host, Rachel Otto, will be playing a Sound Bath and leading everyone in a guided meditation. Solar glasses will be provided for the first 200 people. Please bring a yoga mat, blanket or your favorite portable seating for meditation. This is the first of a series of events named “Moonlit walks through the Valley of the Moon …
