The importance of getting along with our own selves (Second House)!

Most people don’t get along with their own selves! That comes as a bit of a surprise, considering that people in general are quite egocentric and are thus supposed to take the very best care of themselves. But, as if they were plagued by some mysterious virus, they don’t! On the contrary, they are often …

The better the astrologer, the less deterministic the predictions s/he makes!

I think all of us who practice astrology have gone through this phase: to interpret astrological data in a rather rigid, “deterministic” manner. Studying, i.e. a chart and concluding that because the person has such and such planetary positions (aspects, domifications, etc.), then s/he unquestionably has such and such traits in his/her character, while a …

An astrological perspective on a possible Civil War in the United States

As you may know, the so-called transcendental planets (Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto) play a major part in Mundane Astrology. Every single variation of theirs, every new aspect they form, and notably their eventual sign shift, may provide us with crucial information about humanity’s future course.  There is, however, another important but lesser-known feature of the …

Pluto in Aquarius: the dictatorship of the “commonness” and of the “abnormal” – And your money won’t belong to you!

The majority of astrologers consider Pluto’s upcoming entrance into the sign of Aquarius a “positive thing”. Probably because they tend to link the sign of Aquarius with an impending “golden age”! As a result, they mostly make optimistic predictions like “a new, brighter era will dawn,” “the common people will rebel against their autocratic rulers” and so on. What those …

The eminent Byzantine astrologer John Abramius

Byzantine astrology is rather unknown among the general public. In fact, many people might be surprised to find out that Byzantine astrology even existed. It did, though, and it was marvelous! Byzantium was somehow a continuation of the Hellenistic world, so astrology was a natural part of its tradition. Additionally, the Byzantines were geographically close …

The Mars- Uranus – North Node conjunction in Taurus (Empires crumbling down)!

In just a few hours, we are going to experience the major event of this month, August 2022 (and one of the major events of the entire year 2022): the Mars – Uranus – North Node Partile Conjunction, at the 19th degree of Taurus!  I did a little research, in order to find out when …

Our “airplane” (the “West”) is nosediving – but we think we are flying fine!

Throughout history, the empires seem to be shifting from east to west! Starting with what we know as the oldest empires on Earth, the Mesopotamian and the Egyptian ones, the “world hegemony” was consequently taken over by the Hellenistic Empire, by the Roman and the Frankish one, and, later on, by the Spanish and English …

The 500-year mega-resonance planetary cycle (& the decline of Europe)

I was watching the other day a video of a brilliant Greek geopolitical analyst (Constantine Grivas) who was positing that the current war in Ukraine is signalling – among other things – the definite ending of the 500 years of European dominance over the world! Plus, it is signalling the irrevocable transformation of Europe into a “vassal …

Crimea 1851 vs. Ukraine/Crimea 2021: will history repeat itself?

Chances are you have never heard of the 1853 Crimea war. But out of some odd circumstances you might soon start watching on your TV/PC screen the brand new Crimea (and Ukraine) 2021 war, which most probably will be eerily similar to the 1853 one! Almost the same military powers will be involved in it! Russia …

USA is ever more plugging into a sort of collective psychosis abyss!

(Disclaimer: I am a Greek citizen. I don’t support Trump and I am not particularly interested in whom exactly is going to be the next USA President. But I find quite abnormal and interesting (astrologically, psychologically, semiotically) the phenomenon of the over-demonization of the current American President). There are people who almost every single day …

Our societies are getting ever weirder and deadlier! (Covid-19 &”Capricorn Climax”)

Our entire planet is living now some unprecedented and even nightmarish situations, with this deadly coronavirus pandemic that has stormed upon us! Most of us are experiencing situations that no human (except for the few aware epidemiologists and Astrologers) would ever expect to live! Especially in the western world, no generation before us has lived …

The economic and demographic plundering of Greece (astrological predictions 2020)!

Ten years ago, Greece was making headlines all over the world! You most probably remember why. For the first time ever, a European Union country was facing a sovereign debt crisis and there was a tangible risk of it going totally bankrupt! Not only that but (due to the so-called domino effect) the economies of …

Pluto in Capricorn disclosed to us the fact that the “King” is naked!

To some of you, this Frank Zappa’s saying might seem just the mumbling of a stoned rocker. In reality, though, it is a profound and insightful statement, brilliantly explaining in just a few words the very essence of modern politics! You see, politics is so complicated! But everything becomes crystal clear if we apply this …

Uranus in Aries has gone away…and with it the “Better Me” virtual self?

Just a couple of hours ago planet Uranus left the sign of Aries and entered Taurus (definitely this time)! We all know that when we come down to Uranus we should expect the “unexpected”! Thus, it’s not easy to predict the situations and events it will bring about on a collective level, during its seven …
