She’s not There: Achlys and the False Self

As our work on Achlys develops, certain psychological frameworks begin to emerge not as loose analogies, but as structural confirmations. One of the most striking of these is Donald Winnicott’s theory of the False Self, which aligns with Achlys so precisely that it now feels indispensable to the theory. Donald...

Achlys Cazimi – the Beautiful Illusion, and its Denouement

For any astrological research of a previously uncharted star, there is an inevitable gulf between what we understand, and what we might come to understand. We can only bridge that gap by making forays of insight. Not all will be correct. Some will only tell a small piece of the...

The Kniefall von Warschau and Other Hadean Musings

Yesterday’s discussion of the Hadean squares has me thinking about that unfortunate few whose biographies are critically affected by the extremes of these outer-planet transits. I noticed a few interesting phenomena here. (Click image to enlarge) There is that cohort born in around 1913 who experienced their Pluto and Orcus...

Vocations IV

“Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” -- Confucious -- We have already begun to formulate some ideas around the astrological notions of vocation. First, and most broadly, we must pay attention to a wide array of factors to help...

Orcus the Stoic, Ixion the Epicure

The completion of Ixion means that as students of the Hadean powers, we are at last able to explore some of the dynamics of their qualities, most especially in how they interrelate. This allows us a better understanding of what you might call Hadean hierarchies or architectures, as delineated in...

The Mundane Eclipse

As often discussed, a solar eclipse is simply an extra-powerful New Moon, with all the attendant generative properties that you would expect, but also, with some unpredictable elements. After all, the Sun is ‘blotted out’ and goes dark, so it is symbolically akin to a period where the solar principle...

Hard Times – The Astrology of Charles Dickens

Let us talk about the nativity of the wonderful, flawed soul that was Charles Dickens. My own experience was at first indifferent. Despite an interest in reading the classics, many years passed before I decided to read some Dickens, I first read Great Expectations several years ago and did...

Ixion Approaches…

Hello friends, Happy new year to you, although we astrologers don’t get ourselves overly worked up by the calendar, instead we wait for the real new year at the Spring Solstice. There’s a good reason that the United States tends to launch its oil wars around the 20th of March,...

The Once Was Great Conjunction

Maybe it’s my Sun-Uranus, but I never seem to get in the same groove as other astrologers. It’s not that I am trying to find fault with the prevailing opinions. Or perhaps this is the Mercury reception Pluto speaking, but what is really going on, like underneath? I feel as though everyone is pointing at... Continue Reading →

A Glimpse of Ixion

Hello Friends, I have been away, exploring the subterranean places. This is not a pleasure cruise. It is a field of Orcus, or if you prefer one of the myriad and shadowy demesnes of Hades. What this consists of, for the most part, is an exploration of the Ixion archetype....

Ixion’s Serendipities.

Hello friends, Let me start with an apology for the absence, I have had all sorts of trials and am not even out the other side, but am just now reminded of the old adage, most Hadean in fact, that “if you’re going through hell, keep going!” One does wonder...

Ixion and the Good Life

Hello friends, There’s an old Chinese curse, which goes “may you live in interesting times!” The idea being that prosperity, ease and comfortable living mostly goes on when the general ambience of life is rather dull and uneventful. We are in the midst of interesting times, no doubt, and no sooner are we come to... Continue Reading →

The Great Gravy Train Robbery

Predicting the outcome of elections is hard. The British general election of two days ago has ushered in the most right-wing government Britain has ever seen. This bold conclusion is ably supported by the announcement today that Tommy Robinson, a far-right campaigner and member of various white supremacist organisations has...

Communion with Hades

I am checking in after a little absence because it's remarkable how quickly time flies and how much work you can get done without even the slightest disturbance on the surface of life and it might seem that there is nothing going on, in the depths of one's personal...

Hadean Planets and Spiritual Work

How do we work with Pluto, and his co-rulers of the Underworld, to emancipate ourselves from difficulty, and to do the spiritual work that is our life's purpose? I would argue that it is, like so many spiritual methodologies and paradigms, at once incredibly simple and most decidedly difficult, but...
