In her book, The Chiron Effect, Lisa Tahir uses the keyword “Neglect” to describe the cause or source of Core Wounding for the placement of Chiron in Taurus.
Chiron spent 6 years in Taurus from April 1927-May 1933, and then again for 7 years from June 1976-June 1983.
I think Neglect is the perfect word especially for the children growing during that 1927 to 1933 period. On a socially conscious level, consider the children growing up in the United States during the collapse of the Stock Market and the great depression. I’m sure most of those childrens’ parents were completely preoccupied and consumed with the loss of their jobs, loss of income, loss of homes, and a loss of life. Their sense of security was no more. Not that parents neglected their children on purpose, but that’s what indirectly occurred due to life’s unforeseen circumstances.
Take the life of Anne Frank into consideration and the other children growing up in Nazi Germany during the reign of Hitler. Families being ripped from their homes and separated must’ve made impossible for parent’s to give their children the kind of attention they needed.
I’m a Chiron on Taurus individual, and I’ve been working on that placement for about a year or so now. Take a look at your birth chart and see where your Chiron is placed.
Take a look at the feature image of the hourglass. Notice, as the sand slips through the x-point, it piles up on the lower level. On the lower level, as it piles, it forms the shape of a pyramid. There are three Egyptian Pyramids, roughly covered in sand, and one bigger than the last. I believe the pyramids represent time in a unique way.
Pyramids of Time
Now, take a look at my drawing of the Egyptian Pyramids, and notice the numbers around each them. According to numerology, 11, 22, and 33 are Master numbers.
Taking this a step further, there are some critics of time who say we live the past, the present, and future all at once; the past is what we just did a second ago, the future we haven’t gotten to yet or it’s what’s to come, and the now is the current moment.
I look at it this way, once you turn two you enter into the pyramids of time. Initially, you begin at the age of two, you start out on the smallest pyramid as you can see, but once you get to age six, you occupy the first step on all three pyramids, living the past, present and future all at once.
The first major milestone you reach is at age 11. There should be a natural gain in knowledge, understanding, reason, and sense. You’ll feel it, you should actually feel more intelligent.
When you reach the second milestone at age 22, you are free from pyramidal structure and restrictions that come with being a human between the ages of two and twenty, however, you’re still connected to the future pyramid and the third milestone.
When you reach the age of twenty-two, there should be a natural gain of skill, ability and direction.
Take notice at what happens when you reach your third milestone at age 33. You are still living a good portion of your life on the second pyramid.
It’s not like the arrival to your second milestone, because when you reached age twenty-two, the first pyramid was over and done with.
33 is the most spiritually inclined number as it’s made up of 11 and 22. It’s love, understanding, and giving at their highest levels. Right after your 22nd birthday, the energy begins to build towards to 33. You will have your Saturn return at age 29, which can be extremely beneficial depending on the personal work you put in.
And then once you reach 33, you’ll remain at the top of third pyramid until all the sand slips through the hourglass, and the second pyramid reaches completion as you turn 40.
Once you reach 40, you’re in you’re power, still standing at the top having learned all the lessons and tied up all the loose ends. You’re decent begins when you reach the age of 42.
When you reach 42, you are fully in the last pyramid of time, and that’s right about the time of your Uranus opposition to itself. Every move you make from this point forward has to be calculated, and there must be something gained for your time, because as you can see, there’s no more to waste.
The climbing ends at age 60, with all level roads ahead.
The drawing of these pyramids is symbolic of many things. It shows how we live in the moment, with full control over the past, present, and future. It shows the overlapping of time and how we build towards our futures when we don’t even think we’re close to doing so. It runs perfectly with two major astrological transits we all go through.
Each Pyramid contains a 9-year period between steps. This is sacred in design.
Look it over and study it. I’m sure you’ll draw your own conclusions.
These past two days have been a period of going within. I just started retaking courses I actually began in 2013, and one of them delt with reincarnation.
I know some of the findings I report or comments I make seem completely foreign to some of you, but if you’re truly interested in whatever the topic or area of study it happens to be, you’ll be able to wrap your heads around it someday. Because remember, we live in “that time;” if you seek you shall find.
I have good reason to believe, which I’ll elaborate more on in Smorgasbord 3, that #1 we all have a soul, and #2, despite what many previous philosopher’s and theologians have said, that soul is located in the part of your body that corresponds to the sign of your natal sun.
Trust me when I tell you, no one is saying this right now. You heard it here first.
If you learn how to deal with time, you’ll bring yourself into harmony with Saturn. If Saturn is favorable in your chart, he can be generous with the qualities he bestows upon you. He can give patience, perseverance, and the strength to wait out a bad spell.
Saturn used to co-rule Aquarius and Capricorn, but since the discovery of Uranus, Saturn has been serving full time duties in the astrological sign of Capricorn. If we’re lucky, some of us will get three Saturn returns during our lifetime. They say Saturn’s orbital period is 29 years, but mine began around 27. Most of us should have at least two Saturn returns during the course of our lives. A Saturn return is when the planet makes its way around the zodiac and returns to the place or position it was in when you were born.
And trust me, if you wake up to the synchronicities and patterns taking place in your life, you’ll know when Saturn is near. If you learn the lessons your supposed to learn you can expect an enlightened start to your 30s!
Saturn is all about restrictions. It’s not that he gets off on seeing you struggle, it’s just that sometimes there are lessons for us to learn that can only be learned through the struggle. There’s a method to his madness. The people who struggle with Saturn are usually bright individuals. They’re smart, on top of things, and they’d probably breeze through life getting anything and everything they wanted.
So, Saturn says, “yes you can have all that, but if you’re not ready spiritually, mentally, and emotionally, it will be the ruin of you. I will prepare you first, and then I will open that door when the time is right and you are ready.”
It is March 1st, and we have just about two weeks of winter left!
As I recall the automobile accident I was involved in in January, 2000, I can’t help but think about how close I was to death. The last thing I remember was looking left and seeing the headlights of the car that was about to ram me in my driver side door.
Then, a loud noise brought me back. When I picked my head up off of the steering wheel, I looked around slowly, and I asked the first responder if we were in a dream.
He said, “No, this is real.”
And that noise came back. It was a saw that was being used to cut portions of my car away so I could be removed. The car was that mangled. I have no idea how long I was unconscious for.
When the ambulance arrived on the scene, they thought I was dead. The guy who hit me thought I was dead, and when my mother went to the junkyard to get my license plates off my car, the men working there apologized for her loss.
How close was I to death?
I took a look at my birth chart, and my first four houses are Leo, Virgo, Libra, and Scorpio. Because of my birth time, the MC-IC axis is almost perfectly centered dividing Aries and Libra at 17 degrees. So Libra, the third house now split by the IC axis, has its first 16 degrees in the 3rd house and its last 14 degrees in the 4th house.
The 3rd house has a few attributes including the one in focus here, short distant travel. And that’s what I was doing. I was driving in my town traveling back home from a friends house. Short distance travel.
Pluto, the planet of death, is placed in Libra, the third sign in my chart, however, because of the IC axis, its placement is on the 4th house side of Libra at 21 degrees.
How close was I to death?
I think I was about 5 degrees away. If Pluto’s placement was to the left of the IC axis in the 3rd house of short distance travel, I think I would’ve been dead.
Opus Magnum
By: Francis Joseph LaManna
Celestial coordinate grids-
Spun from arachnids,
And the world's fear,
is sight unclear.
They sit in meditation, hoping for a little intuition,
to fix a situation, with more imagination.
But to tell the truth,
Imagination might be enough,
For humans to conquer,
And break through the rough.
Time lines of history,
millennia mysteries-
still making sense of it all;
Spacetime,
Time in space,
We're recalling The Fall.
The more I walk-
The more I crawl.
Slow down my sun,
He doesn't say it, but I know he feels it.
Our hands meet,
and something happens,
either a deal is made,
or it's congratulations.
The path forward,
now set to unfold,
it's one that favors action-
the courageous and bold.
We're awakened by incompatible opposites,
which change our focus,
to the possibility-
we've returned for a purpose.
That's destiny!
And we learn,
we aren't trying to complete a process,
but rather, we are the process.
The Great Work is us!
We're being molded and engineered,
as our soul journeys to completion.
As you know, I’ve been reading Barbara Hand Clow’s book, Chiron Rainbow Bridge Between the Inner and Outer Planets, and in the book, Clow talks about three major transits that occur during our lives; the Chiron square, the Saturn return, and the Uranus opposition to itself. I do agree with that.
These are the times when it’s crucial to put in the self-work. My Uranus opposition to itself is coming up so I’m going to break that down, and hopefully, by me doing that, it will make it easier for you to do the same if you happen to be in the same situation. Let me start by explaining what the hell this all means, because I know there are a lot of people who are interested in astrology and would like to follow it, but find it difficult to learn on their own.
My interest for astrology came out of nowhere back in 2007, but I can’t sit here and say I’ve been feverishly studying it since. It’s been more of a side thing or a hobby that I study, practice, and put to use in my spare time. The more you live the more you understand so it’s best to take astrology in stride-not to mention the system is so vast in information that it can be overwhelming and confusing. Take your time with it.
In my natal chart, Uranus is in the 5th house on the 25th degree of Scorpio. An opposition is when you have two planets directly across from one another; an opposition is an aspect of 180 degrees. The Uranus opposition occurs around the age of 42, but it could be later because Uranus goes retrograde and that slows the transit or it’s path around the zodiac. When it finally reaches opposition to itself, it will be directly across from where it was when you were born, or its position in your birth chart. For me, that’s Taurus 25 degrees just past the 11th house cusp.
Uranus in Taurus Analysis
Taurus is the sign of people who revel in the pleasures of life. It’s about security, comfort, and the warmth of relaxing in the home environment. It’s care. The flip side to this is that Taurus can be bullish, willful and stubborn, but not because they’re assholes. The issue is that Taurus is kind, devoted, and loyal-sometimes it hard to let things go.
Uranus is the planet of invention, rebellion, reformation, and unpredictable changes. It’s about discovery, independence, and improv. Uranus brings liberation, genius, science, originality, and breakthroughs.
As Uranus transits the fixed, feminine, and negatively energized earth sign that is Taurus, he will shake it up-house included. He will wake it up with sudden awareness and lighting insight so that the necessary changes can be made. Changes that ultimately promote growth and evolution.
✈Ed Bastian, the CEO of Delta Airlines, said 8,000 employees just tested positive for COVID.
“Really? That’s unbelievable considering how strict Delta was with employees when it came to following COVID safety procedures. I guess the vaccines aren’t as effective as Ed thought. Wasn’t Delta one of those companies who publicly took the arrogant approach, NO JAB NO JOB?”
🚷💉Some people are starting to complain and criticize China’s “Zero COVID” Policy. They’re saying it’s harsh and extreme. The Chinese government is locking down and shutting down entire cities, while bringing back those old camps we sometimes joke about. That’s right, Fox News just reported the Chinese government is forcing their citizens into COVID Quarantine Camps for 14 days. Yes, they’re hell bent on hosting the Olympic Games.
🤧🤒😷How about this? Online publication, The Epoch Times, just published a story breaking in Australia. The COVID outbreak is hitting the vaccinated population harder than the unvaccinated. Right now, for the first time, the number of vaccinated patients in the hospital from COVID is higher than those who’ve not been vaccinated.

⬜I just read Barbara Hand Clow’s interpretation of the square aspect in our birth charts. She said, “Squares are your friend. They’re like vortexes of energy in our lives. Entering the vortex is the Chiron Gate. It’s the point in time and place where self exists, and where we’re forced to relate to our whole environment.” The square is a 90 degree aspect. I also learned in the same book, the sextile, a 60 degree aspect, is the most perfectly balanced aspect.

😮From the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa, William Herschel discovered Jupiter’s Ghost on February 7, 1785. Jupiter’s Ghost or NCG 3242 is a planetary nebula that was catalogued as HIV. 27. Two hundred years later HIV/AIDS was a global pandemic.
According to my research, the Galactic Center is a supermassive black hole located at approximately 26 or 27 degrees in the astrological sign of Sagittarius. (Please keep in mind astrology and astronomy seem similar, but they are not. The location of real constellations observed by astronomers do not always coincide with astrological signs or houses).
The research says the Galactic Center is located in the Sagittarius Constellation, and it just so happens, I guess, the GC is also located in the same astrological sign.
The GC is also called the barycenter, and it’s the center of our Milky Way Galaxy. It powers the compact radio source Sagittarius A, which is almost exactly at the galactic rotational center. Spread throughout the galaxy are intergalactic radio sources located in Taurus A, Virgo A, and Centaurus A. (This is my first question, “are these radio sources natural, do they allow for intelligent communication between different locations in the galaxy, and if so, who uses them?”
Earth, the planet on which we live, is apart of a solar system. Our solar system is located in the Milky Way Galaxy, and our galaxy is one of many in the Universe. Planet Earth is one of arguably nine planets that orbit the sun, hence the name solar system, and the sun orbits the center of the Milky Way galaxy. It takes our sun between 200 and 250 million years to orbit the Galactic Center.
The Sun rotates on its axis also. One rotation takes approximately 27 (earth) days or 648 hours. That means one Sunday or day on the sun lasts for 648 hours, and the sun makes approximately 13 rotations in one earth year.
This, I find extremely interesting because there are similarities with the moon. A moon cycle takes about 28/29 days. In a month, lets say January, there is usually one new moon and one full moon with the days in between spent ascending towards full light or descending to complete darkness. In a year there are approximately 12 new moons and 12 full moons-that is one of each per month. In the time it takes the sun to make one rotation on its axis, the moon also completes one full cycle.
