Capitalism what happened?

As I’ve said to too many and perhaps even here on the blog that what has been happening the past 30 years is the wind up to the end of capitalism as we have known it, just as the Soviet Union’s moment when the wall came down, ours was the last market crash and the forthcoming one that has to happen due to the bubble we are in. Here’s a very interesting economist I thought you might like to investigate:

More on Ceres

OK, sorry again. I have been in and out of contact like a quasar bleeping on a radio telescope. People have written to me about their Ceres placement and I started a post but didn’t get a chance to finish it so I will deconstruct it starting from 1-12 and go through all the signs as well then just mix and match and you have your answer.

So let’s start with the signs and then go to the houses and I’ll give an example at the end of how to put it together.

Ceres In:

Aries: Nurturing through self-exploration, creativity, leadership roles, the warrior’s path (often means the military). and putting oneself first/teaching others to put themselves first, the head.

Taurus: Nurturing through food, work, stability, providing structure, routine and financial security, the neck.

Gemini: Nurturing through education, teaching, writing, thinking, communicating, telephones, exchanging ideas, working with pre-adolescent children, neurological system, the arms and lungs.

Cancer: Nurturing through cooking, traditional nurturing careers like nursing or mothering, acquiring things, holding onto connections, keeping family connected, family, the breasts and sometimes the stomach.

Leo: Nurturing through dramatic expression, creativity, playing with children, having fun, theater, the performing arts, gambling, speculation, being a father or playing a father role, protecting children (and one’s own inner child) from the harshness of adult life, the heart.

Virgo: Nurturing through work, analysis, perfecting ones craft/job or self, service to others, giving of oneself, engaging in constructive criticism rather than faultfinding, the stomach, intestines, bowels.

Libra: Nurturing through relationships, the visual arts, beauty, aesthetics, creating harmony and or a harmonious environment, partnerships, legal system, contracts, insisting on what’s fair and being a champion for fairness, the kidneys.

Scorpio: Nurturing through transformation, sexuality, the occult, death and rebirth, transmutation, power, politics, big money (like banks and other wealthy institutions rather than one’s own personal money), financial advice, the big picture when it comes to economics, sexual organs.

Sagittarius: Nurturing through higher education, philosophy, open-mindedness, playfulness, humor, optimism.

Capricorn: Nurturing through career, ambition, working hard, taking control, setting boundaries, power structures, leadership, tough love.

Aquarius: Nurturing through innovation, being involved in humanitarian causes, big organizations, friends, wishes and dreams, supporting other’s in their dreams as well as oneself, TV, music, electronics, science, hope.

Pisces: Nurturing through letting go and helping others to let go, psychic ability, psychic healing, spirituality, the divine, angels, spirit guides, laying on hands, reiki, film, illusions and delusions, mental illness, incarceration, drug and alcohol problems.

Those are the general areas, one or more will make sense for you in your life. I have Ceres in Gemini and for me I’ve always known that I have a gift for healing/nurturing people through words/communication.  I could feel always feel it happening as I spoke to someone in a psychic reading. The person would start (often in a dark place) and I could feel their energy turning toward hope and relief by the end of the reading. This same gift applies to my writing. It is my desire to help people through the darkness no matter what the venue.

Now the house system is odd for those who are new to astrology. The best explanation I heard for how this works was taught to me by an astrologer friend when I was in my early 20s. She said the planet is the car, the sign is the engine and the house is the road (this is a very LA metaphor!) So if you have Ceres in Gemini that means the car is the energy of nurturing, Gemini is the driving force and that is the energy of the mind, language, communication and finally if it is in the first house that means it should be driven (for best effect) for the purpose of self actualization and helping others on their path of self-actualization.

Here are the houses

1: Self-actualization the self, the physical body, the way one appears to the world, how people see you, how you interact with others.

2: Your daily life, your work, your routines, the things that create the foundation of your life, your stuff, the money you make from the work you do in the world.

3: Brothers and sisters, grammar school, elementary school, lower education, the early mind, information, communication, writing, domestic travel, publishing through magazines.

4: The home, early life, if you are woman it usually represents your father, if you are a man it usually represents your mother, nurturing, feelings of safety, how you will be remembered after you pass on.

5: Children, speculation, gambling, the stock market, risky investments of any kind, creativity especially performance related creativity, playfulness, hobbies, anything one does for enjoyment sake, affairs, lovers.

6: Service related work, health, health care field, service industries, the work one does to make the world a better place without always being compensated for it, work with charities (also related to the 11th as well but this would be daily grind sort of work), small animals.

7: Partnerships, represents the husband or wife so in this case Ceres in the 7th would indicate a very nurturing partner and also learning to nurture through partnerships and a love relationship/husband or wife, the law, contracts, fairness.

8: Other people’s money – banks and big financial organizations, the occult, hidden power, inner strength, transformation, death, rebirth.

9: Higher education/college, philosophy, humor, travel overseas, foreigners, other cultures, publishing industry (books),  intellectually based spiritual models and systems, the thighs.

10: Career, what one becomes most recognized for by others, where one shines in the outer world, taking control, being a leader, the mother in a female’s chart, the father in a male’s chart, ambition, energy put out toward achievement in the material world, the knees.

11: Hopes, wishes, humanitarianism, friends, organizations, innovative ideas, interest in off center people or eccentric ideas, openess to wild ideas and theories, TV, electronics, spirituality (either New Age or not in the main stream), the ankles.

12: That which is hidden from the person, incarceration, dreams, psychic ability, spirit communication, the final part of life before transition, mystical spirituality, shamanism, the feet.

So let’s take a reader’s question. She has Ceres in Scorpio in the third house. So putting it all together. Her way of nurturing is through sexuality, and/or being involved with people who are going through major transitional periods. She herself will often be forced to find nurturing through sexual connections and also through being like a phoenix and rising up out of the ashes of something she didn’t expect. By embracing the transformations she has gone through in her life she will be a light to others and (3rd house) be able to guide through writing, communicating and educating people on her own intense experiences.

Hope this makes sense and if you have trouble e-mail me and I’ll put up your questions. I plan on trying to work (when I get a chance) on some info about the gold and oil markets for a reader. I will post that in the next week or so.

Many blessings and best wishes to all the kind people out there,

The Owl and Ceres… Sorry it’s been so long…

I wanted to address the reader who had the experience with the owl. I would read that experience as very much a symbolic one. I have had a lot of run ins with owls and that just doesn’t happen by accident. They are very secretive creatures and many people never see one their entire life except for in a zoo setting. They symbolize clairvoyance, clairaudience and are generally a warning to trust your intuition, this is why they have often been associated with negative things since usually your intuition protects you from not such great things. In your case the fact that the owl knocked itself out and then turned its neck around and stared at you well… OK, that’s also something to look at. It was also 4AM, the dead of night. The reader wasn’t sure if the animal was OK at first. Let’s deconstruct this.

The owl is a messenger bird. It generally carries messages of things unseen, hidden. Owls have freakishly amazing vision. They are actually related to hawks and their vision is even better since they need virtually no light to see as well as a hawk. They can find a field mouse from above a tree line in the dead of night. So they can find just about anything through their careful examination.

However, in this case the owl had an accident and was distracted, hit a wall, fell and hurt itself. I would say to this reader that perhaps there are things going on around you right now that you are not paying attention to, signs that you are ignoring that will eventually knock you senseless. The owl turned its head and stared directly at you. This was a message for you. I would advise you to stop being distracted and pay attention to your immediate circumstances, there is something awry and you are being warned that if you don’t deal with this you will injure yourself in the process. Perhaps, you have been being too detached, perhaps you have a knowing but are not listening to your own intuition due to being distracted by some other issue that is really less important in the grand scheme of your life.

Owls physically come to psychic people as messengers when we are not paying attention to our intuition!

PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR INTUITION and don’t think you’re nuts or wrong, trust it like you would trust anything you would see with your own two eyes.

I also wanted to address the reader who talked about Ceres.  I’ve been thinking a great deal about Ceres and Her relationship to Virgo. Ceres is a nurturer, she is where the word cereal comes from. She rules over the staple food wheat. Every culture has a staple food, rice, wheat, corn, potatoes. In this way Ceres is an extraordinarily important  Goddess to the ancients, without her good graces, her nurturing, love and generosity they would parish. So I think Ceres isn’t just how we nurture others but how we nurture ourselves, for example I have Ceres in Gemini, writing heals me, for someone else with Ceres in Libra, painting or collecting art might be healing or with Ceres in Virgo helping others, being of service would be healing, Ceres in Cancer would mean food and cooking, rearing children would be a healing process. Of course all of these things are healing but I mean they are healing in the sense of being revitalizing and able to give the individual a sense of meaning in their life that they can not find in anything else. I think Ceres may actually be the key to finding the expression of one’s life purpose.

Also the house placement would be important. Mine is in the first house so Ceres is how I come across, as a nurturer, and also I need to be alone a lot and write as I said, to regain my balance. If one had it in the 7th, this process would come about through partnerships, and/or being involved in the profession of law. If anyone wants to give me there Ceres placement and sign I will interpret it in the next week or so and put it up for others to learn from so just leave it for me in the comment section. If you want to find out your placement go to astro.com and click on the section that reads: free horoscopes, under that you’ll find options and can input your data. Make sure to go to the extended chart selection so you can add Ceres (you’ll see where this is when you get into it) to your chart and then click. The symbol for Ceres is a sickle with a cross on the bottom when you look at your chart. Here’s the link to their site:

Read the future…

I got an e-mail from someone who read the book I wrote which is posted on the blog under the heading Americhrist. It’s kind of a big undertaking since it’s 100,000 words and on a computer it can be a lot, but, anyway many have taken the time to read it and I thank them for it.

I started the book shortly after the non-election debacle of President Bush (or the coup) . I could see the horrifying future unfold in front of my eyes, the dark path of destruction and I started having dreams of this group of survivors in 1997-1998 who lived in a forested area. Anyway it all kind of hit me around 1999 and I wrote the first draft by 2000. I did finesse it quite a bit for a while, but the basic concepts never changed. When I began reading it to my writing group, members would say, “Wow, what an imagination you have.” By the end of the Bush-era each of them confided to me how the book haunted them and felt it was one giant premonition. Despite it winning literary prizes and placing in competitions it has yet to be properly published due to the sensitive nature of the subject material and the fact that literary science fiction is currently a dead market.

I had hoped with the regime change of Obama that my book would be a relic of some nearly missed path, but unfortunately if you want to know what I see for our world and the way I think things will go, read it. I’m convinced that this was all precognitive and this has been further confirmed by the fact that a church I made up called The Wrath of God (a main player in the book) was actually formed around the time I was writing the book. I found out about this recently. Now a reader sent me a link about the Beast in the book where the Plutocratic theocracy exits… as it turns out something very close to it is currently being built. I found this out when the reader sent me a link to the site. The link is down below for anyone interested in checking it out.

I know I’ve kind of gone dark with my predictions because I don’t want to bum people out. However if you want what I saw in full living color read that book. It’s not just a metaphor (although there is some of that in it) the world is one I saw in dreams, and on astral trips. I have no idea if this is the world of 30, 50 or a 100 years from now. I do know that it is the world we are headed for now, without a doubt in my mind, unless we do everything in our power to change it. I had hoped writing that book would help to change the direction of the world for the better. My goal was to open people’s minds to this as a potential reality and get people motivated to change. I had of course hoped that it would not be needed.

I do believe that we always have the power to change ourselves and our world even at the last second. But we keep coming to these cross roads and going deeper into the darkness rather than turning toward the light. Perhaps this sort of culling is a natural part of the evolution of a planet and perhaps we are not meant to be the “caretakers” anymore since we really have blown it many times before and now we have poisoned our water, air and soil to the degree we may not recover for thousands of years. The earth may need to rid herself of the majority of our species in order to remain sustainable for life of any kind to exist.

Well, anyway here is the e-mail and interesting link a reader of the blog sent me via e-mail. I’m reprinting it here with the link for anyone interested.

Hi Denise….

Not sure you’ve seen this. It’s exactly what you talk about in Americhrist.
