  • Astrology as the Art of Alignment

    The natal chart is the invisible pattern through which the world takes shape in a soul. It describes how the cosmic order entered form. The zodiac is a set of wheels moving under the light of a single centre. To read it rightly is to ask: what gesture allows this structure to become transparent to…

  • Pluto Direct in Aquarius: An Analysis

    Pluto crossed the threshold of Aquarius on November 19 2024, becoming the first of the transpersonal gods to announce the new cycle of profound mutations that are transforming the three outer planets. On May 4, it began its retrograde motion; due to the slowness of its realm, it did not return to Capricorn. Yesterday, October…

  • Venus in Libra: An Analysis

    It is one of the most elegant returns of the year. Venus in Libra is Aphrodite on her throne, the gesture of the world finding proportion again. After purification in Virgo, she reappears in cardinal air as pure relational force, the moment when the self recognises the other and the cosmos arranges itself in pairs…

  • The Sun In The Final Decan of Libra

    The Sun has now spent twenty days in Libra, the sign of its fall, in the western point of the Zodiac, where the Light meets its own reflection. Libra stands at the horizon, under the guardianship of the Archangel Gabriel. The element is Air, of cardinal nature. Within it, the Sun finds no dignity by…

  • The Marian Miracle of the Sun

    On October 13, 1917, the sky above the Portuguese hills in the village of Fátima trembled. The crowds saw the Sun move in a way that defied the geometry of heaven. They saw it shiver, whirl, descend, and return. The event later named the Miracle of the Sun marked the end of six Marian apparitions;…

  • Symbolic vs Diabolic: An Analysis

    Few words disclose such a precise mirror of the human condition as symbolon and diabolos. In their Greek origin lies the drama of creation itself: the movement of union and separation, the pulse of the One divided into the many and forever yearning to return. The symbolic heals that wound and the diabolic widens it.…

  • Venus Opposed to Saturn: An Analysis

    Venus at 26° Virgo is still in her zodiacal fall. The goddess of pleasure, desire, and aesthetic relationality is currently forced to descend into a terrain of analysis, modesty, and correction. As if Aphrodite had to wash her feet before being adored or serve tea with hands wounded by labour. There is a vestal sort…

  • Tarot: Two of Pentacles and Mercury in Scorpio

    After considering astrologically this Mercurial movement through Scorpio, the sign attached the eighth house of the zodiac, with all its aspects, we now turn to the divinatory art of the Tarot to interpret the meaning of this passage. The word divination comes from the Latin divinatio, derived from divinus, meaning “divine”, which itself originates from…

  • The Etymology of Obedience

    The ancient verb obedīre conceals an act of luminous listening. It comes from ob- meaning “toward” or “in the direction of”, and audīre, “to hear”. To obey once meant to listen attentively toward a source. Its origin lies in hearing that answers rather than slavery. When the Latin was still fresh, to obey meant to…

  • Sun in Libra and the Fortuna Minor

    The Sun now stands in its fall, in the seventh house of the Wheel. This is the Descendant, the western point of the heavens, aligned with the sign of Libra. The direction we call the West was named in Latin occidens, from the verb occidere: ob meaning “down” or “toward”, and cadere meaning “to fall”.…
