FOR EVERYONE ~ Go with what’s counterintuitive. December’s vibes are asking each and everyone of us to avoid doing what comes most naturally to us. They are urging us to break our habitual patterns and embrace the chaos that is surrounding us. When challenged like that, we usually try to stick with what we know. […]

Astrology Forecast: November 2011
FOR EVERYONE ~ At long last. The world will shake off its stifling inertia in November. Finally. There will be an immediate surge of progress in vitally important areas, areas blighted by delay for too long. There will be a sense that more important progress will follow in the months just ahead. But battle lines […]
Astrology Forecast: October 2011
FOR EVERYONE ~ The darkness before dawn. Let’s be honest. A lot of situations have reached their limits. So have a lot of people. Suspense and tension are peaking. Rhetoric is getting ever more intense. Nerves are taut. But there’s still no realistic solution in sight. The turn will come in November–next month. The planets […]
Astrology Forecast for September 2011
FOR EVERYONE ~ Re-empowerment. September’s vibes put just about all the Sun signs in a surprisingly similar situation. All the Sun signs will be under pressure, short on options and in the mood to talk. The planets are downplaying our differences and showing us what we all have in common. They are encouraging us to […]
Astrology Forecast for August 2011
FOR EVERYONE ~ This is not a test. August brings a tumultuous blend of powerful but conflicting influences. People will be overstimulated and wired. But they will need to think things through calmly and carefully. They will need to address urgent, long-term challenges while they are facing urgent, short-term challenges. At the same time, events […]
Astrology Forecast for July 2011
FOR EVERYONE ~ Synchronicity. July’s energies are lively and energizing, but they are also changeful and destabilizing. Relationships of all kinds, at home and at work or in the classroom, are under pressure. In fact, we could discover genuinely disturbing things about people we thought we knew. There is a benevolent, supportive vibe beneath it […]
Astrology Forecast for June 2011
Compass. This June, the process of change hits those things we base our major life decisions on. The rules of the game, rules we thought were eternal, will start changing, too.
Astrology Forecast for May 2011
FOR EVERYONE Cascade. A lot of things will happen very fast in May. Many of these things will be important and many will be irreversible. Luck will frequently step in and take a hand. But many will be tempted by the chance to make a power play or a shady move. May will be complicated, […]
Astrology Forecast for April 2011
FOR EVERYONE ~ Impasse. Whether its parking space, health care, the public library, education, energy or water, we all share resources – and expenses. We need to cooperate and share expenses at some level to get along. This month it will be clear that the formula we use to decide who pays and who gets […]
Astrology Forecast for March 2011
FOR EVERYONE ~ Over the threshold. Things will move faster, now. Changes will be more numerous, more frequent and more dramatic, more up front and out in the open, harder to avoid, hard to gauge. Exciting in many ways. Challenging in many ways. More people will move in and out of our lives more often […]
The Simple Truth of Dr. Star
I have a dodgy relationship with astrology. I was introduced to metaphysics via backwater superstition. My parents believed that one of their son’s eyes wandered because he had been “imprinted” in my mother’s womb when she was startled in a stairwell by their cross-eyed landlord early in her pregnancy. Astrology was fortunetelling, designed primarily to […]
Astrology Forecast for February 2011
FOR EVERYONE ~ The gap. February is a point of departure for all of us. The past is pretty much gone. Necessity drives us forward. We can clearly sense new and encouraging opportunities. However, there is also a distinct gap between where we are now and where we need to be. We will all have […]
