Oh My Stars

First of all, to my regular readers: there will be precious little astrology in this blog entry. We will return to our regularly scheduled programming next time. To everyone else: welcome. My name is Matthew. I am a writer and an astrological counselor. It is my job to (among other things) help people understand what…

Bad news, everyone: it appears we may all be stuck with this place a little longer than we had hoped. Scientists have announced the first habitable exoplanet discovered, Gliese 581, may not be a planet at all, but simply a misinterpretation of the data. Yes, I am as disappointed as the rest of you, and…

Today: a special blog entry that everyone can enjoy, whether they’re into astrology or not. If you are a fan of astrology, read on. If not, skip ahead to the part after the video. Either way, everyone wins! *** Astrology can predict the general course of a day, but just because you’re having “good transits”…

Astrologers tend to get terribly excited when Jupiter changes Sign, particularly when it’s entering one with a reputation for being “fun” like Leo does. When that happens, it’s time for the astrologers to break out all the keywords like “expansive” and “growth” and “wow, I had such a great time – wait, where are my pants?”…

(WARNING: Your Humble Astrologer is still in the final throes of transiting Mars square his natal Mars, and is thus still a bit prone to crankiness. You’ve been warned.) When transiting Pluto is square where it was in your birth chart, it can represent a monumental challenge to the very core of your being. It…

We are coming off of a particularly raucous Full Moon. There’s all sorts of cosmic pushing and pulling and jockeying for position going on in the coming two weeks: Jupiter enters Leo, Mars leaves Libra for Scorpio, and the Saturn Uranus quincunx is happening. Keep checking back here and I’ll have updates on those for…

This is a general forecast for everyone, but oh my dear Aries and Cancers and Libras and Capricorns, and those of you with major placements in those Signs: it is most especially for you. *** We are now in the three-day period overshadowed by the Full Moon, which peaks on Saturday. Odds are very good…

W.E. writes, asking about scheduling a reading: Let’s be honest: my ridiculous love life and concomitant questions about What Am I Doing With Myself? are not an emergency situation (I’m not being sarcastic; I really mean that!) Wait. Stop right there. Yes it is… in the sense that “an emergency” is something of prime importance…

(Full Disclosure: Those of you who like their astrology uplifting and enlightening, please turn away now. But for those of you who like snark, pull up a chair and carry on.) (Wondering what the next few months hold in store for you? Write me with your date, time, and place of birth — and I’ll…

Science has recently confirmed something that most of you probably knew, on one level or another, all along: people don’t like to sit around and think about things. Researchers at Virginia and Harvard Universities gave test subjects a choice: sit quietly and think about whatever they wanted to for between six and 15 minutes, or give…
