Re: Mercury Retrograde

Goodness me what a science !!! As for me, I don't understand even 2% of what you're talking about but it fascinates me all the same. Like I'm watching some great movie far too difficult for me to understand, but that it's filmed so beautifully that you cannot but stay and look with amazement. It's ...

Re: Saturn rx Trine Venus

Hello Tor. Without seeing the chart, it is extremely difficult to give you any real insight. Both Saturn and Venus function differently in day and night charts. In addition we need to know if Saturn stations within the week prior or subsequent to birth. In the twelfth house, Saturn is in a decline b...

Re: Mercury Retrograde

Retrogradation is both misunderstood and exaggerated in modern astrology. Along with transits. It is essential to remember that whether a planet is retrograde or direct, it is still moving. It is the stationing that is important. When one of the stars turns retrograde (first station) or direct (seco...

Re: Beginner book recommendations?

Recommending texts on astrology is complicated by the fact that there is not one branch (horary, et cetera), and then there is the subject of practice. I started with William Lily and Olivia Barclay. Over the last four years, I have focused on the Perso-Arabic and Hellenistic period and took Chris B...

Re: Influence of the 4 Suits on Lenormand

Sadly, as the Lenormand Oracle gained popularity in the Anglo-Saxon market, a specific view of the playing cards as twee decorative motifs was cultivated. This was exacerbated because the playing-cards did not correspond to the “standard” associations most English and American cartomantes adhere to....

Re: What is the 'official,' or traditional, Lenormand deck?

You know, like how for tarot, everyone recommends the U.S. Games Rider-Waite deck in the ugly yellow box because that’s the one referenced in the vast majority of reading material available. Or, for Marseille, most people will say Grimaud is the only way to go (never mind that it isn't the most his...

Re: Andy Boroveshengra's blog

The division technique is something one uses; however, it was never particularly popular with the first round of students. It is taught in workshops, et cetera. But as one is not the best writer, or as eloquent as my peers, I have never had much success teaching it in the printed format. Once the ca...
