I am sharing a video conversation with Prof. Avi Loeb (Harvard) about 3I/ATLAS. In that interview he proposes a “Loeb Scale” from 0 to 10 for interstellar objects and places 3I/ATLAS at 4 right now. That implies roughly forty percent odds of technological origin in his framework. This is not a confirmation. This is not a denial. It means we do not…[Read more]

Most charts include at least one retrograde planet. In a natal chart, a retrograde is shown by a small “R” or “Rx” next to the planet. Astronomically, nothing actually moves backward; it only appears that way because Earth and the other planet are traveling at different speeds—like your train passing a slower one so it seems to drift backward.…[Read more]

In the 1970s a French forester named Jean Pain noticed something most of us overlook: a big pile of wet wood chips gets hot—really hot—just from the natural work of microbes. He asked a simple question: if nature is already making this heat, could we use it? What followed was a quiet, practical experiment that powered a home, restored tired soi…[Read more]

Viktor Schauberger (1885–1958) was an Austrian forester who watched rivers the way a watchmaker studies gears. His maxim, “Comprehend and copy nature,” was less a slogan than a design rule. He believed the aliveness of water and air reveals itself through shape, temperature, and motion, and that technology should follow those patterns instead of f…[Read more]

In ancient astrology the rising sign (Ascendant) is the chart’s foundation. It is the “hour-marker” that sets the whole sky in motion. Classical authors even used “horoscope” as a synonym for Ascendant, not “Sun sign.” The 1st house that begins at the Ascendant is called the house of life and was treated as the most powerful place in the chart. It…[Read more]

In traditional astrology the Moon and Sun are co-equal luminaries, “king and queen”, rather than a Sun-only focus. Ancient astrologers gave the Moon as much interpretive weight as the Sun and taught that which one leads depends on whether you were born by day or by night (the doctrine of sect). In day charts the Sun is the “sect light”; in night c…[Read more]

Virgo is the Maiden: a symbol of harvest, craftsmanship, and devoted care. A mutable earth sign ruled by Mercury, Virgo refines the raw into the usable: discerning, precise, service-minded, and quietly powerful. Each year, the sun travels through Virgo about August 23 to September 22 (the exact dates can shift slightly by year and time zone),…[Read more]

Wu is a core idea from classical Daoism (Taoism), named in early Chinese sources like the Tao Te Ching and the writings of Zhuangzi. Literally “non-doing,” it’s better understood as non-forcing. It’s action that arises so naturally from the situation that it feels effortless. Daoist texts pair wu wei with ziran (“so-of-itself,” or naturalne…[Read more]
