Colo, the first gorilla born in captivity, has died at the ripe old age (for a gorilla) of 60. She was born December 22, 1956 at around 6 AM at the zoo in Columbus, Ohio.* Colo’s birth chart shows us a grab-bag of astrological bits and pieces that perfectly describe various things about her. I’m…

Once again, the time approaches when many of us make predictions, and are equally annoyed by the results whether we’re right or wrong: The Academy Awards.

There was a problem with the playback for the track of one song, and then another song…

Knowing when the Moon Void of Course is happening is probably the handiest of all the common astrological techniques. Learn it, make it work for you, and…

Why have so many celebrities died in 2016? David Bowie. Alan Rickman. Glenn Frey. Harper Lee. Gary Shandling. George Kennedy. George Martin. Keith Emerson. Patty Duke. Ronnie Corbett. Merle Haggard.
