Nothing says “Uranus changing direction” than the “shattering of an energy record” by a gigantic piece of technology that shoots protons. (Uranus rules electromagnetic energy AND technology, and when it changes direction like it does this week it demands our attention.) “The world’s largest particle accelerator has set a new record in matter-smashing.” The LHC is designed to smash proton beams into one another at 7 TeV to help simulate the sort of conditions present just after the Big Bang....

Uranus, planet of revolution and change, turns direct on Tuesday and will be re-energized itself. We’ll be talking about the kinds of experiences we are likely to encounter as Mars travels back and forth through Leo over the next... Read more
At the holidays there is a focus on family which often necessitates an examination of what family means to us as individuals. Many of us who grew up in the 1950s and 1960s remember the paintings which turned Norman Rockwell into an adjective as well as a painter “the Norman Rockwell family, the Norman Rockwell holiday.” For those of us in a family experience which was less than idyllic, which I would guess is most of us, these images evoked...

Not too many of us in the United States are left with the illusion that the first Thanksgiving was a romantic feast where native Americans and white folks forged a beautiful friendship that lasted hundreds of years. Most of us know the tragedy and devastation that European settlement of the US brought. And lots of people don’t celebrate Thanksgiving as a result.

The Brits are in the forefront of this trend, first of all with the success of James Partridge, the Channel Five newsreader who was disfigured in a fire when he was 18. Partridge was given a...
