This incredible video is about 8-1/2 minutes, but well worth watching.  The makers of the video have created a beautifully accessible learning tool for education about the energy grid and the bioelectrical changes that are occurring within human beings.  Astrologically, this process is connected to the planet Uranus which rules electromagnetic energy and the transmission of information across dimensional fields, and the planet Neptune which rules the ability of the human being to connect directly to the divinity in an... Read more

photo by Jo Lidbetter Barack Obama will be our first president born with Pluto in Virgo.  The past two presidents, Bill Clinton and George W Bush, were both from the Pluto in Leo generation, embodying the best and the worst of my generation’s noble ideals and self-centered execution.  Previously we had George Bush I, from the Pluto in Cancer generation, and before him Ronald Reagan represented the Pluto in Gemini generation. Pluto was in Virgo from 1956 through 1971, marking... Read more

We’ve had quite a busy few days in the comments section here at Astrological Musings.  Normally I love to get comments – it’s so cool to see who’s here and what they think of everything.  And the political posts generate the most comments and the most passionate comments. This election has really brought out everyone’s fear and anxieties, it seems.  John Oliver on the Daily Show got this right a week or two ago, saying that this election has finally... Read more

Tonight, November 4, at 11:00 pm Barack Obama reached the number of electoral votes required to be declared President of the United States. Leo is rising in New York right now where the announcement was made by the major news media outlets, at about 12 degrees, conjunct Obama’s Sun. Eugene Robinson is saying: “The world will never forget this moment.  The after will be different than the before.” John McCain has called Barack Obama to concede. It’s an amazing night.... Read more

Many writers, including me, have expressed concern over the presence of major and challenging planetary cycles occurring on Election Day.  However, we have primarily looked at the astrology of the day with a broad brush approach.  If we zoom in a little closer we see a very nice combination of aspects. Today, leading up to the election the Moon is in Capricorn, heading towards a conjunction to Jupiter.  There will be a sense of responsiblity and duty with the Moon in... Read more

Barack Obama’s grandmother Madelyn Dunham, the woman who raised him for most of his formative years, has died in Hawaii.  I wrote a couple of weeks ago about the transit of the South Node over Obama’s Sun as an event that was significant here, but another transit coinciding with this event is the exact conjunction of transiting Chiron to Obama’s progressed Moon ever since the beginning of October.  The Moon represents our emotions and the women in our lives, as... Read more

There’s lots of astrology going on in November.  Here’s the report for the first week of the month: The big news as we enter the first of November is of course the election in the United States. This election has great importance not only for Americans but for the global community as well. The astrology for the election is very complicated and includes the first exact hit of an opposition between Saturn (the old way) and Uranus (the new way).... Read more

Most people know by now that the holiday we now celebrate as Hallowe’en comes from the old Celtic holiday called Samhain (pronounced Sow’-en).  There are many “Days of the Dead” celebrated around the world at this time, when the veils between the worlds are said to be thinner and the living can communicate across those veils to the dead. The fact that this holiday takes place in Scorpio is no accident.  The actual Samhain holiday is astrologically based and occurs... Read more

I sure wish we have a birth time for Sarah Palin which would help to give us more specificity about her personality and help us to forecast with more accuracy.  (There is a 4:40 pm time circulating around the internet but it is completely unsubstantiated and should not be relied upon.)  However, it is growing ever more clear that Governor Palin will not be a flash-in-the-pan vice presidential pick if McCain’s bid for the White House fails – her aspirations run much... Read more

Thanks to Shane for this cool article and to the Daily Galaxy for the cool image: Recently identified electrical activity on Saturn’s largest moon bolsters arguments that Titan is the kind of place that could harbor life. At a brisk -350 degrees Fahrenheit (-180 Celsius), Titan is currently much too cold to host anything close to life as we know it, scientists say. But a new study reports faint signs of a natural electric field in Titan’s thick cloud cover that... Read more
