Oh My Stars

(Matthew Currie is not available to write his blog today, having sustained a serious injury wrestling with a run-on sentence. In his place, we present this message from Mars in Aquarius, which arrived in a large metallic cylinder that landed recently outside of Grover’s Mill, New Jersey.) Hey dude. Have a seat. We need to…

A typical horoscope lays out what you can expect for yourself in the next week or month based on your Sun Sign. That sort of thing is great, sure… especially if you happen to be the only person on your planet. Astrology, like life in general, is a lot more complicated than “there are twelve…

“This was a serious crime, Mr. Cosby, this has all circled back to you. The day has come, the time has come.” -Judge Steven O’Neill Bill Cosby has been sentenced to 3 to 10 years in State Prison for sexual assault against Andrea Constand. On the one hand, his transits today tell the entire story.…

Venus Retrograde begins on October 8th and last until November 16th. When a planet goes retrograde it doesn’t necessarily mean that everything that planet rules goes wrong, but there’s certainly a greater tendency for those things to go wonky.

(Those of you who’ve been reading my blog for a while know that I have occasionally run a feature called “Ask An Astrologer.” Today, I swear, I am answering a real question from a real person. Really.) BD writes: My girlfriend is having unprotected sex with her ex-husband, because she thinks Scorpio’s can’t get STDs.…

I’ve recently written a couple of blog entries about how in the last year or two there has been an explosion of “empty calories” astrology articles on the Internet. If you will all kindly forgive me one more trip into Grumpy Old Man territory, I am about to “go there” again. Then I’ll take my…

It’s time to set the record straight about one of the most maligned placements in the Zodiac: Venus in Scorpio. Traditionally, Venus in Scorpio is considered a debilitated placement because it is the opposite of one of the two Signs it rules (in this case, Taurus). of course you don’t need to know much astrology…

There is a certain tendency among astrology fans to assume that, once a planet’s retrograde period is over, everything associated with that planet is going to be totally awesome. But if you’ve ever successfully completed and sent an email without errors during Mercury retrograde, or managed to completely screw up an email when Mercury wasn’t…

(CLICK HERE for the month’s major aspects!) Here’s the most important astrological forecast of the month. Really? Yes! Why? Knowing when the Moon Void of Course is happening is probably the handiest of all the common astrological techniques. Learn it, make it work for you, and save yourself tons of unnecessary aggravation! Seriously: you want…
