The Dapper Young Man in the Rolling Stones

Posted on December 27, 2022 by cdsmiller17

Charlie Watts (June 2, 1941 – August 24, 2021)

I got this book for Christmas. On my own, I probably wouldn’t have bought it for myself. Why? I’m not really a fan of the Rolling Stones, so reading about their drummer, Charlie Watts, wouldn’t occur to me.

The timing of Charlie’s birth chart is rectified to his marrying his wife at age 23. That places his Sun @ age 17 when he started being a professional drummer, and his Jupiter @ age 14 when he was bought his first drum kit. I think we are on fairly solid ground here. There are two inconjuncts which are time-critical because they relate to the Ascendant and the Midheaven. I will delineate them, anyway.

Saturn Inconjunct Ascendant

With this aspect you probably have a rather serious attitude toward life and other people. It may be quite difficult for you to simply go out and have a good time. You want to be serious and to spend all your time performing significant tasks. This attitude may have developed because you were discouraged from enjoying yourself when you were younger. You may have been made to feel that only work is important, that play serves no useful purpose.

You need to be encouraged to believe in yourself and to recognize your personal strength. You have to be helped to realize that you as an individual are worth a lot and that you need to get some satisfaction from life as much as the next person does.

Uranus Inconjunct Midheaven

You need to express your thoughts and feelings, but you often upset the people around you with your words. You seem to enjoy creating a stir every time you say something, but this can get you into quite a bit of trouble with parents, teachers and other authority figures. The underlying principle of this aspect is the need to balance your individual self-expression and manner of communicating with your need to learn and grow under the guidance of older people.

Certainly you will discover your own routes to what you want in life. Now you need to be given the confidence and encouragement to look for those routes on your own with total freedom.

Maybe This isn’t as Far-Fetched as You Might Imagine

The Peripheral (Season 1 – 2022)

Normally, I stay away from way ‘out-there’ TV shows, because they take so long to get anywhere and I’m always left with a feeling of being let down by the ending. This show is different. And I suspect it might be the main star, Chloë Grace Moretz, who I last saw in Hugo in 2011. Evidently, she’s been in a million other things since then.

Anyway, I won’t give the ending away, but the storyline, which takes place in 2033 (and 2100), seems to have a relevance to our present time, and perhaps even to David Wilcock stating that the Apocalypse has been cancelled because of our spiritual actions since 2012. Effectively, we’ve changed the timeline.

We shall see.

Love Wins: A Thoroughly Modern Fairy Tale

Posted on December 16, 2022 by cdsmiller17

Harry & Meghan (2022)

Now that the second half of this series has been broadcast on Netflix, we have the whole story. But it isn’t pretty to witness. In fact, a couple of times I was close to tears when hearing how the sordid and nasty situation evolved. I was going to focus on the ‘black and white’ issues but instead think I will look at the day when Harry met Meghan for the first time.

Literally, this may be half-an-hour late (just like Harry was that night), or it could be totally accurate. The point is that the Moon was on the Descendant and that may have been the trigger for them. (Think, Diana.) There are three inconjuncts, but I won’t be delineating them. Instead, I want to demonstrate how that meeting affected both of them, at the same time.

They say, when the stars align, magic happens. I believe it did, here. I’ll leave it for other astrologers to come to their own conclusions.

Sanctuary and Spiritual Guidance

Three Pines (2022)

When I first heard the title of this series on Amazon Prime, I thought, “Another ‘Twin Peaks’?” I was right, and I was wrong, at the same time. There is a strangeness element, but it isn’t so far-fetched and outlandish as that 1990’s show.

I guess what I like about this Quebec, Canadian show is the sensitivity and accuracy of the story lines. There’s no mistaking the MMIWG thread that runs through the first season, but behind that is the tragedy of Residential Schools, especially on the native population. These wounds run deep.

A Blue Jay has a Starring Role, too

In Indian totem symbolism, the blue jay is a guide. And so it proves to be in this village. Whenever the detective gets stuck, the blue jay shows up to provide a clue or two. And the significance is that the policeman has, not one but, two blue jay feathers in his possession (one of which was given to him as a child, just before his mother disappeared from his life). Interesting.

We are only halfway through the first season, but it is shaping up to be an excellent show; definitely not Twin Peaks.

It’s a Metaphor for Arguing ‘Black is White’

The “New” Facebook

Yesterday, I was accosted by a nude drawing of a younger man in all his ‘glory’ on Facebook. It had been ‘suggested’ for me. What!? I immediately complained that it broke their rules because it showed adult nudity featuring genitalia. I got this in response:

Thanks for letting us know about this. The photo was reviewed, and although it doesn’t go against one of our specific Community Standards, you did the right thing by letting us know about it. We understand that it may still be offensive or distasteful to you, so we want to help you see less of things like it in the future.

From the list above, you can block Alexis Vera Art directly, or you may be able to unfriend or unfollow them. We also recommend visiting the Help Centre to learn more about how to control what you see in your News Feed. If you find that a person, group or Page consistently posts things you don’t want to see, you may want to limit how often you see their posts or remove them from your Facebook experience.

We know that these options may not apply to every situation, so please let us know if you see something else you think that we should take a look at. You can also learn more about our specific standards on nudity and the kinds of images allowed on Facebook.

I did not initiate any connection to the Alexis Vera Art page directly, so this is their problem. I wonder how much they got to ‘publicize’ the image. Facebook has become its own worst enemy, and I am tempted to completely stop using it as a platform for any and all of my opinions and insights.

It’s One Small Step for Man

Fusion! (December 5, 2022)

The news was touted on all the news channels recently. I thought to myself, someone, somewhere will give us the exact details, eventually: I never expected it would be the New York Times.

The Cosmic Cross in the centre of this chart is a hint at how excellent the timing of the experiment truly was. There are three inconjuncts, two of which connect the Sun to the Moon/North Node/Uranus conjunction in Taurus: how appropriate. And Pluto inconjunct the Midheaven is spectacular, too.

.

A giant leap for mankind.

I’d Never Heard of This Before:

Posted on December 13, 2022 by cdsmiller17

WOW! Signal (August 15, 1977)

Until today, I was unaware of this ‘contact’ signal. Since it came from the vicinity of Sagittarius, I was wondering if this might be symbolic of the Galactic Centre that Ellie Adams often speaks about. It is presumed to be extraterrestrial in nature, and Ellie Dreams Down Under thinks it might have been a ‘friendly’ message that caused too much consternation among us human beings; the ‘aliens’ then decided to come for a visit themselves, just to see what’s going on.

This is the precise moment that the signal was read/seen. It has three inconjuncts, two of which form a Yod (finger of God) pointing at the Ascendant @ 9° Aries. Interesting.

Moon Inconjunct Ascendant

You tend to put your own emotional needs and wants second to whatever you feel has to be done. In other words, you are likely to be more disciplined emotionally than most people your age. But this is not good if you feel that your emotional needs are not important. Your needs must be fulfilled as much as anyone else’s, particularly because your feelings are really very powerful within yourself.

Venus Inconjunct Neptune

This aspect means that your attitudes about love and affection are very idealistic, as will become clearer later in life. Also it can be a sign of creative artistic ability if there are other indications of creativity in your chart. And, of course, you must begin the appropriate training while you are young.

You may find someone who seems to be perfect, who will help you out of your problems, but later turns out to be a disappointment. You must learn to take a clear, objective view of the people you are attracted to and to realize that you deserve a positive love relationship as much as other person does, for you are as worthwhile as anyone.

Uranus Inconjunct Ascendant

Your need to be free and do what you want is often in conflict with what others require of you and even with what you feel you ought to do. Sometimes this conflict can cause considerable physical and emotional tension. The task you face is to organize your life in a disciplined way that will enable you to satisfy your need for freedom through your everyday activities.

“Close Encounters of the Third Kind” Came Out in Theatres in 1977

Could this be a coincidence?

Oh, right, there are no coincidences…it’s synchronicity.
