• Venus in Sagittarius: An Analysis

    Venus has now entered Sagittarius, leaving behind her exile and venenum in Scorpio, a word whose root lies in her own name. Venenum once meant a love potion before it came to signify poison, revealing the ambivalence of attraction and peril that belongs to her nature. She rises from the eighth house, the realm of…

  • Saturn Direct in Pisces: An Analysis

    Saturn concludes its retrograde motion in Pisces today, which began on July 13, 2025. Despite having entered Aries in June, the Lord of Time turned back to revisit his Saturnian bound (from 30° to 28° Pisces) and a portion of the previous Martial bound (28° to 25°), that is, the harshest and most malefic degrees…

  • The Morning Setting of Venus

    Venus is closing today, November 26, her Luciferian cycle, of the Light that precedes the rise of the day, and enters the invisible heart of the Sun. This is known as the Morning Setting, and it happens today at 24° of Scorpio, the moment when the Goddess ceases to be seen in the sky before…

  • Birth Chart: The Oikodespostes Mars

    A few days ago, I was asked by a consultee to analyse their birth chart. The moment I opened it, I was struck by the overwhelming strength of its Oikodespotes. It is rare to come across a horoscope in which a single planet concentrates so much authority and radiates such a decisive influence over a…

  • New Moon in Scorpio: An Analysis

    The upcoming New Moon is marked by celestial death, grief and rebirth. In a few hours, it will occur at 28 degrees of Scorpio, where the lunar waters descend into their most dense and mortal state. The previous Venusian lunation is near its setting and the of the Queen of Night fades within the dark…

  • A Sun-Jupiter-Saturn Trine in Water

    Today the trine Sun–Jupiter–Saturn, forming among the three Water signs, is a remarkable moment. The structure of the sky presents a triple connection between the three great principles of the diurnal sect: consciousness (Sun), expansion (Jupiter), and form (Saturn) within the three variants of Water, the element of dissolution and regression. Sun in Scorpio (25°)The…

  • 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…
