When a planet is on the last five degrees of a sign, the planet, as far as how it’s expressed through that particular sign, is considered fully matured and well learned.
On January 3rd, Venus was on the zero degree point of Pisces. Venus has an orbital period of approximately 225 days, so it spends 18.75 days in each sign. January 3rd was officially the beginning of this year’s transit of Venus through Pisces. If love is what you’re looking for, then there’s no better way to begin the year.
I have Venus on the 27th degree of Pisces in my natal chart, and I know for a fact that Venus in Pisces is real love-it’s selfless unconditional love, but that’s what the Goddess of Love and Beauty (Venus) learns through her transit of Venus.
A fully matured and evolved Venus in Pisces is selfless and unconditional. Over the next nineteen days, concentrate on your relationships. Try to understand the nature of your relationships and the dynamic between you and the people and things you love.
If you do the work through the January, then by the time Venus is ready to begin her tour through Aries, you’ll be able to ride the wave of love into a brand-new beginning.
Omg, and I can’t even believe the synchronistic timing of this because February is the month in which Saint Valentine’s Day celebrated. Yes, it’s true, Valentine’s Day has turned into a day of consumerism, superficialities, and mainstream garbage, but if you can disconnect from all that and focus on love-real love, then this Valentine’s Day of 2025 could be a very special time.
If you’re single, and you’re actually trying to find someone to get serious with, then highlight the last week of January on your calendar.
Buy some new clothes to update your look, and get your haircut. When you’re confident and feeling good about yourself, you exude good energy. Others will recognize it.
Venus leaves Pisces on February 4th, and it will be in Aries until March 27th. On March 27th Venus will go retrograde and circle back through Pisces before going direct again on April 30th.
We’ll get two wonderful opportunities to find true love this year; between the last week of January and the end of March, and then again in May.
Be prepared.
It might be winter love, or it might be spring love, but either way, if you end up finding someone who’s right for you by the time Venus returns home to Taurus, you’ve picked yourself a winner!
On December 20, 2024, I received a call from my brother’s girlfriend. She said he was in the hospital on a breathing ventilator. He had a car accident.
My heart was pounding when I got the call, and I felt a multitude of emotions rush through me.
The next day, my brother’s health took a turn for the better, and he began breathing on his own. I was so relieved. After thinking about the fact that could’ve be mourning his death over Christmas, and I would’ve had to begin the New Year without him, words can’t even express how grateful and thankful I was to have him back.
I changed a little bit that day, and it’s because I realized that we’re here today and gone tomorrow. There are no guarantees in this life. The last thing I said to my brother before receiving that call was, “You’re fucking miserable!”
Can you imagine losing a family member and that’s the last thing you said to them?
2025 is going to be different. It really is. I’m going to try, I’m really going to try to be in the present moment, have patience, and make the most out of the interactions I have with people, especially those I love and family members.
As Nooz Buffet returns from its two-week vacation and begins working again, we take a look at the event chart for the date and time (1/7/2025 8:00 AM).
Event Chart Provided by Astro.com
With Capricorn on the ascendant, I know this is going to be a year of hard work, work that is so typical of Nooz Buffet, and as the sole contributor under the sign of Capricorn, the revelations of my approach for the last seven years has been steady, determined, and without a doubt, disciplined. That’s a fact.
We see Athena in the Twelfth House on the 14th degree, and we see the Sun conjunct the Goddess of Victory on the 17th degree. This is devotion and fortitude, and having those three planetary bodies in the Twelfth House indicates a winning scenario when it comes to the balancing of karma and being on the good side of receiving, which indicates “right” behavior, a dedication to truth, and proper service in the Sixth House.
I see a major awakening in the Fourth House involving personal possessions and home, and some type of expansion with self-expression also in the Fourth House.
Maybe this is the year I leave home, and I see a the Pilgrims Journey at the place of the ascendant on the 27th degree, which is highly personal because two and seven is my month and day of birth. I don’t know yet if this Pilgrimage is symbolic or literal, but we shall see.
I’m excited, and I’m approaching 2025 with brimming optimism. God knows I work hard, I want to know when that hard work is going to yield rewards.
The conjunction between the North Node and Neptune in the Second House shows some type of spiritual aspect involved when it comes to the acquisition of money and possessions. There’s in fact, something about myself that I might have to change in order to attract what’s rightfully mine. That’s also a fact.

In 2011, I joined the University Metaphysical Sciences in Arcata, California because of a personal calling. My Saturn return was two years in the past, and Neptune was just entering Pisces. The timing was perfect.
Right now, I’m five courses away from a bachelor’s degree in either Divinity or Metaphysical Sciences, and I’m grateful that UMS allowed for distance (online) learning at my own pace.
My experience with the school and the staff has been excellent. They’ve been helpful, supportive, and the delivery of learning materials always arrived in a timely manner.
Christine Breese, the Founder of UMS and the Gaia Sagrada Retreat Center in Ecuador, South America, operates from the heart. She’s humble, compassionate, and caring.
I’m proud of my association with UMS, and I look forward to visiting the retreat center some day.

Well, better late than never. I wanted to publish the last post of 2024 on the 22nd, but I’ve been so preoccupied with the holiday, work, and the situation with my brother, which by the way seems to be improving every day. I’m thankful and so grateful for that.
So, this is officially the last post of 2024, and I would like to thank all my readers, subscribers, friends, fans, and followers. I appreciate and love you all.
It’s an end of the year tradition for us to recognize and rank our international fan base. Nooz Buffet is based in the United States, and that’s where the majority of our support comes from, however, every year, there are two or three countries that get really close to catching our national numbers.
Here is the Top 5!
5. Canada
4. Ireland
3. United Kingdom
2. India
1. Kenya
The winner for 2024 was Kenya. For those who don’t know, Kenya, which is also known as the Republic of Kenya, is a country situated in East Africa. Nairobi is Kenya’s capital and largest city. Kenya is home of the Maasai Mara National reserve. It was named in honor of the Maasai People who are the ancestral inhabitants of the area. Locally, it’s known as “The Mara,” and you can find lions, leopards, cheetahs, and African bush elephants there. Thank you so much for your support Kenya, and thank you Canada, Ireland, United Kingdom, and India!
🎈🎉🧨🎇🎆💚🧡❤💜
I’d also like to thank Terri Conroy from the YouTube channel, Danu’s Irish Herb Garden. Terri is amazing. She’s kind and caring, and I love watching her videos. I have several books in my personal collection about natural cures and remedies, herbs, herbal usage, and the overall folklore and mythologies that accompany green living, and when I saw Terri’s video for the first time, I saw her as the embodiment and living personification of something that I was only reading about. If you’re interested, she has an account on Sub Stack, and she publishes a short video on her YouTube channel every Sunday.
Thank you for all your help.
💚💚🍀🧡🧡
I would to thank all the people who purchased Astrological Readings, and all the people who visited Nooz Buffet every time I had something to say. I hope your holiday season is warm, peaceful, and relaxing.
As per usual, Nooz Buffet will be shutting down for vacation time during the last week of December, and the first week of January. I guess a two week vacation might seem excessive, but believe me it’s necessary.
I just took a look at the stats for this year, and it was 196 posts and 101,396 published words. Just to put that in perspective, 101,396 words is equivalent to a paperback that’s about 400 pages.
Emails, and business related to our Astrological Analysis, we’ll be on top of, but there won’t be any postings until Monday, January 6th.
So, check back on Sunday, December 22nd for our season finale, the last post of 2024.
Also, please keep my brother in your prayers. I didn’t get the full story yet, but I think he might’ve had a stroke while driving today. Thank you everyone.
In 2021, my second book, Smorgasbord 2 Catch Up and Relish was published and available for purchase.
Chapter 3 of the first section of that book begins on page 27. It was a story that I made up about an Alien visiting earth to help his friend find meaning between words that were grouped together by numbers. The title of the chapter was Alien Interpretation.
The back story is this; I created a system of numerology called “Oculus 13” and when I began using this system on my own time to find the number value of certain words, I realized that certain words beginning to connect not only by the value they shared, but also by their association to one another as they were used in mythology, astrology, biblical narratives, etc. That was my motivation for writing Alien Interpretation, and I created the story to fit around my findings. The first three pages of that chapter are below.
Fast forward to August 7, 2022.
It was a hot summer day, and I was sitting in bedroom finishing up the final chapter of Smorgasbord 3 Poverty and Prophecy. The air conditioner was on and to prevent the curtains from blocking the ac vents, I flipped them up on the curtain rod and continued typing.
Several minutes later, my room was filled with a bright light of different colors. It was such an amazing light, that I actually stopped typing to look at the source. I took a picture of the window, and it’s below.
So, imagine that you’re typing, and this light fills the room! It’s important for you to know that this is my bedroom window, and it does face the east. Randomly, I took this picture at 7:22 a.m.
I took this picture with my cell phone, and for the next two years I constantly went back to it for several reasons. I couldn’t believe that I flipped my curtains up on the curtain rod, and they just happened to land in a position where they created a perfect triangle.
“Ha, what are the odds of that,” I said to myself.
I thought it was also amazing how the rising sun was aligned exactly and precisely so that it was ascending right into the center of the triangle!
“That is unbelievable,” I said to myself.
And finally, I was intrigued with random colors and the designs they made. I meditated on this picture and my interpretation of the colors coming from the sun’s rays and the strange designs they made was that it was the spirit of the Jaguar Temple (Mayan Temple).
“This is God,” I said to myself, and I began to recreate this image of what I perceived to be God in drawings.
So, I took the picture on 8/7/22 at 7:22 am, and I emphasize that because perhaps the synchronicity between the time and the date had something to do with this. The time, 7:22, was the same as the day and the year.
Fast Forward to two weeks ago, December 2024.
I don’t know what made me do it, but I went back to that picture and turned it upside down. A copy is below.
Immediately, I saw that it was an angel.
The triangle was now the v-neck, and the chequered curtains formed the top of the wings that were extended by the red rays of sunshine. The Sun is the head, and if you look closely, you can see two arms in blue resting at the waist area.
Two weeks ago, I realized that it was an angel that visited me in August of 2022 on the 7th day.
Fast forward to today, December 16, 2024.
I just finished a course that was all about the Qabalah. After finishing the reading today, I realized that Alien Interpretation (Chapter 3 of Smorgasbord 2) was actually a chapter about Gematria!
I had no idea, and I didn’t even know what Gematria was until today. Can you believe that? That proves, that within us, we are filled with ancient wisdom and knowledge, and we don’t even need to be taught it.
It will just pour out of us through the creative work we do. I didn’t even need to be taught Gematria. Subconsciously, it was inside me.
The last page of study material about the Qabalah was number 27. 27 was the page number that Alien Interpretation began on. Synchronicity.
At the end of the study material, the author wrote this:
However, as with the Zohar, the question of “who done it?” might in the end be irrelevant. Liber AL Vel Legis contains a consistent qabalistic system that can be reconciled with the Gematria of the Hebrew Qabalah. Does this system of Gematria prove the reality of angelic intervention? Does magick work regardless of the “truth?” Or have the Magi been fooling us with smoke and mirrors for millenia? You decide.
-Balthazar Seferiades
The answer, I now know, is yes. The system of Gematria does prove the reality of angelic intervention.
I want to also share this with you. It’s something I discovered the other day.
The cross Jesus was nailed to had letters at the top of it. They were I N R I.
According to the computer, INRI is an abbreviation for the Latin phrase, Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum, which translates to, “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews”
I feel differently.
INRI, according to me, translates to, “INNER EYE”
INR = Inner. And I = eye.
Inner eye or as it’s spelled in this picture, occalus.
Occalus (as in oculus 13), aligns in this picture where the descendant would be in astrology. And, ortus, which means, having appeared, to come into existence, have risin, is where the ascendant would be in astrology.
The inner eye represents the mysteries and everything that’s hidden, occult/oculus. It’s represents the 3rd eye, the eye of God, consciousness, and the creative fire of passion.
In a different picture I took of my window on 8/7/2022, after zooming in as far as I could zoom, I discovered an eye.
The mysteries of the universe are slowly being revealed to us and through us.
With the Moon sitting on the “Zero” degree point of Aries, we feel a sense of renewal, and rightfully so. A look at the astrological chart for the current time (8:45 a.m.) shows the Moon on the cusp or border in between Pisces and Aries, and the Moon is also on the cusp or border in between the Second and Third Houses.
The key alignment is twofold. The opposition between the Moon and the Moon’s south means that a line has been drawn, and we must make a decision. If we decide to go the way of the Moon, then we realize there’s a conjunction between the Moon and the Moon’s north node.
If the north node is the way for this lifetime, then this decision should be obvious.
We can, if we chose to do so, put the past aside now, and begin looking towards the future. The north node is in Third House, and the Moon is in the Second House. It’s a great time to open up conversations about the things we physically own and the money we’re in possession of.
With the south node in Libra, the north node in Aries, and the Moon in Pisces, there’s a pretty clear message. If we chose to let the south node go, then we also let the other go. It’s time now for us to concentrate on ourselves and make our lives a priority. Dealing with the other has been a long journey, and it has drained us of our time, our love, our resources, and our energy.
In Pisces, the Moon’s position reminds us to be compassionate, but at same time, the north node in Aries reveals that this is really about us. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, and the sign that represents the spring equinox. It’s a time of renewal, creativity, love, and fire. If you’re resonating with the spirits of Aries and Mars now, then forge ahead.
Put yourself first, and don’t feel guilty about it.
Conversations now could involve your spirituality or religious pursuits. Maybe you’ve been dying to speak with a tarot card reader, an astrologer, or a psychic. You might even want to talk to a higher power or meditate.
You could also be discussing the things you own as they pertain to your faith or religious beliefs.
Purchase something new today, even if it’s something small and inexpensive. Treat yourself, you’ll be happy you did.
As the last sign of the zodiac, Pisces is probably the most mysterious, but we’re moving forward with a renewed sense of faith.
Currently, the Moon is 33% illuminated in the astrological sign of Aquarius. The Seventh House Moon is connected by sextile with Chiron in the Ninth House, and it’s connected by trine with Jupiter in the Eleventh House.
Relationships and partnerships are highlighted now. These relationships could involve coworkers, lovers, friends, and general acquaintances.
Chiron in the cardinal fire sign, Aries, shows that healing or repairing requires us to find the courage to do so. Aries is the “I Am” sign, and right now, it’s most important for us to be ourselves. Be assertive, and don’t be afraid to be a leader.
Jupiter, the planet of expansion, is rewarding us for speaking our peace. Gemini is all about self-expression, and we know how much Gemini’s love living in their heads and their little worlds, but while doing so, we’ve taken and absorbed a lot recently.
There’s a time to listen, and there’s a time to speak. Within our relationships and partnerships, it’s time to be heard. It’s time for our partners to hear how we feel, and where we stand on certain issues. New doors and new opportunities will open up for us once our partners and friends know how we feel.
We’re not mind readers.
This is also a time to take the initiative and perhaps, go out of our way to meet new people and make new friends. Getting away from the hustle and bustle to mediate and to have time alone to be with our thoughts is always good to do, but take notice on the amount of time you’re actually spending alone.
Companionship and friendship is important. Constant loneliness isn’t healthy. Chiron is offering us healing through partnerships, so the people we meet now, we might need more than we think. Don’t be so quick to walk away.
Ask for help if you need it. Tell the people close to you that you love them.
