  • Jupiter Retrograde in Cancer

    Jupiter has been exalted in Cancer since June 9. The womb of Cancer, positioned in the Nadir of the zodiac wheel, the midnight point of the north, is cold and moist, a nocturnal lunar sign of cardinal Water. One that is receptive, fertile, enveloping. Jupiter, being warm and moist, mingles with this element like a…

  • Heimarmene and Pronoia in Astrology

    In the Corpus Hermeticum, Heimarmene is explicitly described as the “governing circuit of the stars,” the chain through which the Divine intellect structures the material world. It is the order (taxis) of the cosmos: an intelligent and binding necessity. Heimarmene (εἱμαρμένη, from meiromai, “to receive one’s portion”) is the chain of causation, the web of…

  • The Poison of Venus in Scorpio

    The entrance of Venus into Scorpio today reactivates one of the great paradoxes of the zodiac: the principle of union subjected to the principle of division. The goddess of charm and attraction swims in the poison, blood, and instinct, where love ceases to be harmony and becomes possession, control, the urge to devour the Other…

  • Full Moon in Taurus: An Analysis

    This Full Moon at 13° Taurus is rare and alchemically refined. The lunar cycle began with the New Moon in Libra, a cardinal Air sign, but it does not close upon the usual 1–7 axis (Ascendant–Descendant) but upon the 7–2 axis, that of relationships and shared values. This inversion occurs because of the double New…

  • Mars in Sagittarius: An Analysis

    Mars is now in Sagittarius, leaving his domicile in Scorpio, where he led a rare four-planet stellium. He has lost its essential dignity (domicile and triplicity) and is now peregrine, ruled by Jupiter. And not just any Jupiter, a Jupiter exalted in Cancer and about to turn retrograde. I. Technical The dispositor is now ready…

  • Sun in Scorpio: An Analysis

    The Sun has entered the fixed waters of Scorpio, a feminine and nocturnal sign traditionally associated with the eighth house, a shadowed and inactive region of the zodiacal wheel, without pitagoric aspect to the Ascendant. The diurnal and radiant principle is now in an underground spot. After leaving its fall in Libra, the Sun has…

  • The Mercurial Mind of Foster Wallace

    David Foster Wallace’s chart is the portrait of a mind forged in crystal and iron. Thought was destiny. His Mercury, ruler of both the Moon and the Ascendant, was itself ruled and joined by a fierce Saturn domiciled in Aquarius in the ninth house – domus Dei -, binding soul and flesh to the discipline…

  • New Moon in Libra: The Eros of Venus

    Yesterday, on October 21, 2025, the Moon joined the Sun at 28° of Libra, inaugurating a new lunar cycle in the Cardinal Air sign. This lunation arises under the direct rulership of Venus in domicile also in Libra, currently in the first decan, a decan of lunar nature, creating a subtle mutual rulership between the…

  • 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…

  • 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…
