Breakthrough! Astrology and Squares

There are many reasons for why I love astrology, but I enjoy something very specific about it. Through my spiritual path and journey of self-discovery, with astrology obviously being the tool, the more I learn about myself means the more I can help you learn about yourself.

Let’s start with the Sun. There’s lots to know about the Sun, but the most important thing to understand is that it represents the self, you. It also represents the father and those in authority.

There are tons of keywords, associations, parallels, and personifications when it comes to the planets, and sometimes it’s enough to make people close the book and walk away, believe me I get it.

But, if you take it on case by case basis, you’ll avoid that problem of feeling so overwhelmed that you become confused and discouraged.

For me personally, I’m trying to figure something out about myself in relation to authority figures, so that’s how I’ll interpret the sun in my chart.

What I’m looking at specifically is the square between my natal Sun and Uranus.

The Square is an aspect of 90 degrees. That means two planets are separated by 90 degrees, in this case it’s the Sun and Uranus. For those who don’t know, an aspect is the relationship between two planets or points in the chart. If you imagined the planets to be people, the aspect would describe their relationship.

Squares are challenging and stressful, they present obstacles, and teach lessons. But don’t get discouraged. Squares present the energy we need to achieve greatness. A person can develop tremendous drive and strength when they find ways to overcome.

All those sayings you hear like, “nothing worth having comes easy,” “seeing the sunshine sometimes requires us to travel through the rain” etc. That’s what the square is about.

To truly understand Uranus, you must keep in mind that it was discovered in 1786. That’s 10 years after America claimed independence. Uranus is the planet of change and originality. He’s revolutionary. He awakens and shocks and brings about sudden opportunities.

Uranus is in the 5th house of my chart. That’s the sector controlling creativity, short term pleasure, fun, and enjoying life.

So, I have a 7th house Sun squared with a 5th house Uranus. Uranus is exalted in my chart, and I’m an Aquarius (Uranus rules Aquarius) so fun, creativity, and pleasure can be had at the highest levels. At times they have been.

I think you can understand the relationship now with the sun, and that’s the breakthrough. A Sun in the house governing marriage, relationships, and open enemies, squared with a 5th house sun means basically, the devil’s giving you rope and it ain’t his fault if you hang yourself with it.

Also, because Libra rules the 7th house, harmony and balance come into the picture. I’m single and I’ve never been married, but I think if I find the right person, we can have a lot of fun together.

There’s so much more that goes along with this reading. What I wrote here is just the tip of the iceberg. Outside of myself, lets say the sun represents authority figures, then we can see the types of problems that can result from the energy present. Did Britain like when America claimed independence?

Authority figures like to maintain some form of control, some way more than others. So because of the square they’re not going to appreciate the sudden decisions, originality, and revolutionary nature of Uranus. When it comes to creativity, pleasure, and fun, there will always be obstacles. And there has been. This alignment and shared aspect is at the root of who I am and it is the focal point when it comes to fifth house matters and my relationship with authority figures.

Overcoming this alignment can bestow rare opportunities in life.

Where are the squares in your chart?

Nooz Now

Sunday, October 9, 2022 Edition

Good Afternoon everyone! Welcome to the October 9, 2022 Edition of Nooz Now, I’m your host Francis Joseph LaManna.

🌍Let’s see; we have north and south of the equator, Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn, North Pole, South Pole, and the Eastern and Western Hemispheres. With all this division is it actually possible to measure global climate? In order for global warming to be a thing, we’d have to be able to get a single temperature for our entire planet, and that my friends, is just not possible.

🏈Yesterday in NCAA Football, (8)Tennessee beat (25)LSU 40-13, (18)UCLA beat (11)Utah 42-32, unranked Arizona State beat (21)Washington 45-38, and Clemson, Syracuse, Oklahoma State, TCU, Michigan, Penn State, Ohio State, Alabama, Mississippi, and Georgia all remain unbeaten!

📗You can still win a free copy of my first book, Smorgasbord A Collection of Thoughts Experiences and Stories. All you have to do is guess the magical number; it can be any number from 1 to 99 and 44, 2, 55, 30, and 64, have all been incorrect guesses. Well, I’m waiting..

🧙‍♂️Edgar Cayce, the Seeping Prophet, wrote about a special case known as, The Witch-ducking Case in his collection on reincarnation. The focus of his reading was a woman named Moira Schaeffer, a 33-year old struggling artist who was invited to a Greenwich Village party to meet like-minded people who could help her further her career. After the party she returned home in a state of traumatic shock, which eventually led to self-inflicted violence. It actually got so bad she had to be institutionalized-confinement for insanity. During her time there she used to cry out in terror that someone was trying to hurt her, and that she would be visited again by “the man with the black umbrella.”

(Getting off track for a moment here, I think this black umbrella thing is extremely interesting because there were people out in the streets during the George Floyd riots carrying black umbrellas, and that video that was taken of the JFK assassination shows a strange man standing on the sidewalk holding a black umbrella)

Now, back to Moira. So, she was having these episodes while institutionalized, crying out about a man with a black umbrella coming for her. Well, Cayce’s reading, or past life regression reading took her all the way back to New England during the time of the witch hunts. Cayce found that her name during that life was Mana Smyrth, and she was brought to the prisoner’s dock for having some talent as a clairvoyant. Her sentence was considered light as she was condemned to a series of public witch-duckings.

Sometimes these duckings were brutal and often led to drowning, but Mana survived. In fact, she emerged from this situation bitter and vengeful. The intensity of this woman’s hatred and anger for those who reprimanded her was so strong that it carried over into her current life and prevented her from making positive gains in the present moment. By not forgiving her enemies, she was caught in the karmic laws of cause and effect.

It took a lot, but eventually Moira was restored to sanity and got her health back.

This was an amazing story, and I thought you’d find it interesting. I can’t believe woman were being killed, burned, and publicly embarrassed for having a sixth sense or quite naturally, a connection to their source. They were called witches and this was the continuation of the suppression and oppression of the Divine Feminine energy, which began around the time of 325 AD with the Council of Nicaea.

💡I learned something yesterday from listening to Alan Watts. If you felt over sensitive, like every little thing catches your attention, and you seem to notice things people around don’t seem to notice, it’s because you’ve taken yourself deep into self-isolation. This is what occurs when we become hermits. Watts talked about people retreating and seeking silence and solitude so they can go within to find answers about themselves they couldn’t find out in the world. He said you can go so deep, an he’s absolutely right, that if you went into the woods you would notice the animal’s attention on you. You would discover even in your deepest isolation, you would still be apart of a community, it wouldn’t be a human community, but it would be a community.

This is true. And listening to him explain this was comforting. It was good news. So, if this is you and you’re reaching the life of a hermit, and you’re noticing all this weird stuff going on, you’re not crazy and there’s a way back out of it. All you have to do is reintegrate yourself back into society.

Alright my friends, thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet. Enjoy your Sunday!

A Unique Taste

It was a beautiful, beautiful fall Saturday. Cloudless skies, 60 degrees, sunny, and I was out and about. At one point I stopped for lunch, and I noticed a little store that said wine and gifts on the window.

Initially, I walked in there with the intentions of buying a gift, but it didn’t take long for the woman behind the counter to talk me into trying a sample, and I ended up buying a bottle of what I sampled.

The store was Franklin Hill Vineyards, and the wine was Sir Walter’s Red. I never tasted a wine before that actually tasted like fruit!

Now, I didn’t see my favorites in there like The Federalist, 7 Deadly Zins, or Apothic Dark, but that’s because Franklin Hill Vineyards makes their own wine! That’s right, a unique winery with their own thing going on. Check it out!

NOOZ NOW

October 2, 2022, Edition

Thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet, this is the October 2nd 2022 edition of Nooz Now, and I’m your host, Francis Joseph LaManna.

Right now, here on the eastern side of the U.S., it’s about 10:30 AM, and it’s cold and rainy. Honestly, it’s a perfect Sunday. Those who don’t have to go to work can crawl right back into bed, and not feel any guilt!

Let’s get into the news..

🎼: The latest in the world of Hip Hop has us older fans intrigued. It’s a blast from the past as Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre announced the release of their new album, Missionary. I guess we’re switching positions here going from doggy-style to missionary? Either way, the album drops next month and I think it’s incredible that Snoop and Dre are not only still at it, but collaborating like they’ve done so many times earlier in their careers.

Also, Coolio died. He was 59 years old.

📺: I know it’s an older movie, and I’ve seen it at least three times, but Encounter was just that good! I’m not talking about the movie released in 2021, I’m talking about the Encounter that came out in 2018 starring Luke Hemsworth, Anna Hutchinson, and Tom Atkins. What I liked about it was this; they captured all the realistic aspects of a situation of this type. The government was going to extremes to contain what was going on and doing their best to prevent the news of an extraterrestrial intervention from reaching the public. I think it’s amazing how they were able to make this movie in an hour and a half and have it still make sense. Not only that, but they were able to wrap it up with an ending that was sufficient-without appearing rushed or leaving us hanging for more. When you think about the topic of human origin, you can’t help but feel the truth is some wild explanation, but like they say, the truth is stranger than fiction. Even if someone told us that our beginning is exactly what happened in Encounter, most people wouldn’t believe it because they can’t process something so far out of their scope or range of what’s real. And that’s exactly what makes this story so believable. I gave Encounter 5 out of 5 clapboards!

Movie: Encounter

Release Date: 12/09/2018

Starring: Luke Hemsworth, Anna Hutchinson, and Tom Atkins

Rating: 🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬

💦: Pennsylvania’s Lehigh River, for those who don’t know, feeds into the Delaware River. It’s hard to even report this but the water of the Lehigh River ranked in the top 34 containing chemicals linked to cancer. Also, the Lehigh River is ranked 9th, as in the 9th most polluted body of water in the country. C’mon people, let’s take care of our water.

🌒: Our Moon is 6.7 days old! It’s a waxing crescent now, but it will reach full illumination on October 9th. Currently, the moon is in the astrological sign of Capricorn, and Capricorn is in the second house. Consistency and not giving up are essential if you would like obtain objects of desire. The key here is not giving up. When you’re knocked down, you must get up, if you’re distracted, you must refocus, and if someone slows you down, you have to get back up to speed. Slow and steady progress is exactly what’s called for here, and Saturn reminds us to remain reserved when it comes to communication. Not everyone needs to know your business, and right now, it would probably be best for you not to say anything until you get whatever it is you want. In other words, don’t say, “I’m going to buy a house,” say, “I just bought a house.” Good energy often gets contaminated with negativity and envy. Did you ever notice whenever you share something you’re about to do, it doesn’t work out the way you want? Keep it to yourself until it’s over.

🏈: During the NFL game between the Minnesota Vikings and the New Orleans Saints, which took place in London, Lewis Cine, the Vikings Safety, was rushed to the hospital after suffering an injury to his lower left leg.

🤣: IDK I think this is funny. For those who are into fashion, I’m starting to see this emergence of clothes that appear dirty, worn, and something like a peasant would wear around town in the 1400’s in Scotland while he was under the king’s rule. Yeah, so that’s what’s in now. French Peasant clothing from the 1400’s.

⚽: A soccer stadium in Indonesia erupted after Arema FC lost 3-2 to Persebaya Surabaya. This is being called one of the world’s worst stadium disasters of all time! 125 people died, and almost 400 were injured.

💗: Did you ever feel like you loved someone, that you would never ever meet, but you just crushed on that person wishing you could meet them one day?☺ I feel like that now but I won’t reveal who it is.. 😉❤ LMAO you’ll be like whaaaaat?

Alright everyone, enjoy the rest of your day. Thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet!

All Hallows’ Day

All Hallows’ Day, or All Saint’s Day is a feast day of the highest rank according to most churches in which all the saints are honored. That “Day,” on our calendar, is on the first of November. So, November 1st (11/1, or 111) is always All Saint’s Day, but the day of the week it falls on changes. This year it will be celebrated on Tuesday.

I digress here, but I was just thinking about the order of days revolving around All Saint’s Day when I was growing up. October 30th was Mischief Night, October 31st was Halloween, and All Saint’s Day was on November 1st, but for some reason, no one ever seemed to mention or make a big deal out of the day on 11/1. Maybe it’s because people don’t like mentioning or talking about the dead. IDK, but a little while ago I thought about this: What if at one time Mischief Night, in some weird or twisted society was about sacrificing the martyrs? It would make sense in the order according to days. Mischief Night would be sacrificing the martyrs, Halloween would be about dressing up as ghouls and ghosts to imitate the dead, and All Saint’s Day would be about honoring and remembering them.

Anyway, what I really wanted to talk about here was the saints themselves. If you look at the pictures of saints, you’ll notice that disc or halo around their heads. That halo was drawn on purpose to reveal that persons closeness with God.

Yes, that’s true, and in a subtle way, it was reinforced in the Celestine Prophecy, a movie by James Redfield. It has been said, time and time again, we live in a modern world that’s designed to try to prevent men and women from connecting to source because without divine guidance, were lost and have to rely on man’s system. But, I would like for those who celebrate All Saint’s Day to keep something in mind, while we celebrate the saints of our past and ancient history, there are saints amongst us today that are living. A connection to God or source is something that can be achieved if one seeks it.

It’s interesting to note here the numerological and spiritual meaning behind the number 111. If you keep seeing 111, maybe as apart of an address or as a time on your clock, it is an indication that your guardian angels are trying communicate with you. I always believed 111 to mean new opportunities were on the horizon for you, or that a door was opening to give you a fresh start and a new beginning. Those in spiritual circles believe 111 represents the time of a spiritual awakening for the individual seeing it. As part of that awakening, the seer has an opportunity to begin shaping their reality.

If November 1st or 111 marks the beginning of a spiritual awakening, it seems perfect as it coincides with us honoring saints who have or had a connection to God. What better way to begin a spiritual quest than by honoring those who came before us?

Today is October 1st, and the Fall season arrived in September. We’re entering a unique time of the year filled with warmth. Enjoy everyone, and thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet.

Questions for Ingram Content; and some other thoughts

Someone told me a long time ago, anything that requires an initial investment is a scam. I’m not going to say the self-publishing book business is a scam, but..

My question for Ingram Content is this; How can I obtain a detailed-in depth copy of the sales report for my books? I’m an author, I’ve written three books now, and two are published. My books are print on demand through Ingram Content. If someone purchases my book, Ingram prints it and ships it. Ingram in turn, forwards their sales report to my publishing company who pays me a portion of the sale.

To be honest, it was a little upsetting to see sales showing up in 2022 that I would not be getting paid for because according to my publisher, those sales are actually old. Apparently, Amazon purchased a bunch of books in 2021, and I was paid for that sale. So all these new sales that are showing up are actually redistribution sales from Amazon’s original order.

If I can’t get a detailed sales report from my publishing company, then I should be able to get one from Ingram since all sales go through you (Ingram Content).

This is the business end self-publishing, there’s money involved, and when money is involved, you can never be too meticulous. As the author of these books, I think it’s only right for me to have at my fingertips, a complete and detailed report of sales because in a way, self-publishing is like going into business for yourself.

How would you feel if you opened a business and you didn’t have access to a specific version of your sales?

Enough about that, I hope someone from Ingram sees this post and decides to call me because I think I’ve called every number they have listed.

September 23, 2022 Edition

🎆I knew the 4-year anniversary for N.B. was coming up soon, but I wasn’t sure of the exact date. I’ve been celebrating the entire month of September, but today I received the congratulations notice from WordPress. So, there you go! September 23rd is our official anniversary date.

🆒Yesterday, was the first day of fall, and to be honest, you could feel a change in the atmosphere since at least a week ago here on the eastern side of the U.S. That heavy humid summer air finally broke and gave way for a much cooler and breezy feel. No complaints here! I welcome the Fall season with open arms.

♎Happy birthday to all the Libras. I used to say “happy birthday season,” but that phrase was overused and played out so fast. Now, I just say happy birthday, and it’s just as good. The sun entered Libra yesterday, and currently, it’s on the 1st degree. Libra is a cardinal air sign, and it’s the seventh sign of our zodiac, which means naturally, Libra is home in the 7th House.

Libra is widely known for its symbol, the Scales. The Scales symbolize balance and harmony. Venus, the Goddess of love and beauty is the ruling planet. 6 and 9 are lucky numbers for Libras, and Friday is their lucky day.

Popular Libras: Sean Connery, Jesse James, Cardi B, Rocky Marciano, Sophia Loren, Racquel Welch, Arnold Palmer, Will Smith, Bruce Springsteen, and Usher.

🏈It’s only the 4th week of the 2022 college football season, but this weekend is important. First, we have the battle between two undefeated teams; (5)Clemson is traveling to (21)Wake Forest. You see the rankings there, and both teams are 3-0.

Next, 2-1 Florida will visit 3-0 Tennessee. Florida comes into this game ranked 20th, and Tennessee at number 11, and it’s obviously important for both teams to win this. The Volunteers would like to head into week five with four wins, and a win against the Gators will be quite impressive, but for Florida, it’s a must win. It’s hard to come back from a 2-2 start.

And finally, the Badgers are travelling to Ohio to play the undefeated Buckeyes. Wisconsin is 2-1, and Ohio State is 3-0 and ranked 3rd in the country. It’s a similar situation between these two Big Ten teams like the one we just talked about with Florida and Tennessee. Ohio State wants to continue winning, but Wisconsin needs a win to stay afloat in the conference.

This will be one of those weekends in college football that we’ll look back at six weeks from now and say, “Week 4 was pivotal.” It’s a make or break week and several teams are at the crossroad.

🌘 Our beautiful satellite, the Moon, is lit at 5% tonight. It’s a waning crescent, and in two more days on the night of the 25th, we will have a brand-new moon in Virgo! You couldn’t ask for a better way to start the Fall. With new moon in the sign associated with wheat and the harvest, we’re right in sync!

📗For those who weren’t aware, Smorgasbord 3 Prophecy and Poverty is complete. This is my third complete manuscript, and I’m still shopping for a publisher. I truly enjoyed writing this one, it’s 60,000 words, and by far, it was the most involving in terms of research. I will keep you in the loop with that, and if you haven’t picked up Smorgasbord A Collection of Thoughts Experiences and Stories, or Smorgasbord 2 Catch Up and Relish, then please do. Both are available in paperback and e-book form.

🌎You’re going to love this. Lets go back to 2020. The American citizens were getting impatient during the Pandemic Lockdowns. Our economy was taking a hit as people were out of work, and small business owners were losing something they spent their entire lives building. The people had enough and took to the streets to protest. We were winning. People from all races and backgrounds were uniting as Americans and exposing the government overreach.

Then, all of a sudden in May, a man named George Floyd gets murdered by 3 police officers. Violence, rioting, and crime plagued the United States for almost the next seven months. Supposedly, that murder took place in Minneapolis, and I say supposedly because a lot of people expressed their opinion that George Floyd was never murdered. It was said, that that murder was a staged event perpetrated by the powers that be to regain control.

A lot of people will say bullshit, but for one, we were a nation that was finally coming together. We finally put aside our differences, united, and took aim at what our government was doing to us. United we stand, divided we fall, and we know the powers that be don’t want a unified America.

Well, two days ago, I watching the music video for Drop The World, a hip hop song by Lil Wayne and Eminem. I saw the video a thousand times. If you haven’t seen the video, there’s what looks a riot going on. A city is in shambles as people are running around frantically. There’s fire and chaos. People are looting and rioting as Bird Man looks down on the city from a safe spot high above the action. Anyway, I notice for the first time two days ago, while Lil Wayne is rapping in the street, the number 621 is displayed behind him. It’s real big too, you can’t miss it.

After doing my own research because I had a feeling, I discovered 621 is the area code for Minneapolis. That song came out in 2009. That was 11 years before the George Floyd riots began in Minneapolis.

So, if you don’t think George Floyd was used in some way to kick start a riot, on purpose, for the purpose of progressing an agenda by an establishment who brings order out of chaos, you might want to reconsider. It’s foreshadowing and predictive programming.

In the song, Lil Wayne said, “I know what they don’t want to tell you. I hope you’re heaven sent and you’re hell proof.

Aright, that about does it for this session of Nooz Now. Thanks for visiting, thanks for reading, and don’t forget to follow us!

As Lil Wayne would say, I’m gonna hop up in my spaceship and leave earth mother fucker! I’m gone!

🤣❤🚀

The 2+2=5 People

When I first heard Alex Jones talking about this I thought it was funny. Seriously, I used to laugh, and I think it was because I was taking it literally.

Just recently, I finally understood. It doesn’t have anything to do with math. The “2+2=5 People” are the people who believe non-truths even though they know they’re not true.

And not only do they go along with and believe lies, but they’ll expect you to do the same.

That, in and of itself is funny, because it doesn’t make sense to normal people. Why would someone say something was true if it wasn’t?

That’s something you’re going to have to ask the person when you cross that bridge, but I’ll give you my opinion when it comes to money.

Usually, big companies that generate tons of revenue and employee tons of people, public or private sector, sold out at the top.

The people who head such business ventures already made agreements and sign contracts way before they employed people. Everything comes from the top down. If you get handed something to read and sign and it doesn’t make sense, isn’t true, or is against what you believe, well, what that basically says is they don’t care if it doesn’t make sense, isn’t true, or is against what you believe.

You sign it and move on if you want to keep your job and continue making money just like the “Head” did before he employed you.

And, there it is.

You just made $90,000 last year, congratulations! Do you like your job? Yes! Do you want to continue making that money and more soon? Hell Yeah!

If you add 2 and 2 does it equal 5?

No it equals 4.

Do you want to continue making that money?

He’ll yeah!

2+2 equals 5 then, right?

Oh he’ll yeah!

Illegal Immigration is Illegal

Illegal Immigration is Illegal. There isn’t really much to say here. America is not responsible for taking care of the world, and we’re under no obligation to take care of anyone but American citizens.

Any man, child, woman, or family, entering the United States MUST enter through a port of entry. If they don’t enter through a port of entry and register, then they are illegal.

Illegal immigration is not only unsafe for illegals, but unsafe for American citizens as well.

There’s a problem in this country with illegal immigration, and there has been for years. What we as normal citizens see is the argument.

One side argues that it is our duty to take in families of people from other countries, and it doesn’t matter if they’re illegal. The other side argues that they should have to go through a port of entry, and that there’s nothing wrong with immigration-as long as it’s done legally.

What most citizens don’t see is that when you break it down, this human trafficking. There’s a small group of American citizens who claim to care about people, but the truth is that all they care about is lining their pockets.

Groups of illegal citizens are allowed to enter the country and they’re transported to “sanctuary cities” where they’re “safe” and welcomed with open arms.

The small group, has in advance, applied for and received millions of dollars from the government to open preschool and after school care programs where they become the administrators. This has been going on since Bush’s No Child Left Behind Act. The people who stand there with open arms are happy and excited because they’re about to make between $45,000 and $100,000 per year running a school of illegal children.

This is what modern day human trafficking looks like.

C’mon, lets make America Great Again! Hello? Anyone?
