7th House Illuminated by Powerful Conjunction

Hello everyone!

I hope you’re all having a wonderful day. The Sun is now on the 13th degree of Virgo, which means it’s almost halfway through its transit of the Virgin. Wow, that was fast. So, Mercury, the planet of communication and travel, is also in Virgo at the moment on the 14th degree.

This alignment between the Sun and Mercury is called a conjunction, and the degrees of separation vary with astrologers, but personally, I feel like the energy of two planets combined can hold power up until about 8 degrees. With 1 degree separating Mercury and the Sun, I’d say this connection is pretty potent.

Now, because Mercury, the Messenger of the Gods, is the ruling planet of Virgo, he’s home. Whenever a planet is in the sign it rules, its comfortable. I guess you could compare it to your favorite sports team playing at home versus on the road.

Both planets are in Virgo in the 7th House, and the 7th House is the area of the chart where the energies can manifest into the areas of our lives involving partnerships, marriages, contracts, and open enemies. Open enemies means those we’re familiar with, and these people are usually competitors.

Virgo is very technical and precise, so, as we begin to analyze the Sun/Mercury conjunction in this sign in the 7th House, we must focus our attention on the day to day mind. A lot of people don’t know this, but Mercury represents our everyday mind, not the subconscious mind.

There’s a huge boost coming our way involving precise communication. If you’re about to sign a contract of any type, make sure you read over all the details before signing. This could also be a lease for a rental, or any type of written agreement involving the transfer or the borrowing of goods or possessions.

For those couples who are engaged to be married, now is the perfect time to open up a conversation and discuss the details of your special day.

If you’re dating, and things are getting serious between the two of you, now is the time to speak to your partner about what you want and what you expect moving forward.

Virgo is also very analytical, industrious, and detail oriented. There could be lot’s of conversations involving details on how to be better or how to make things better or improve. If you’re on the brink of success or close to achieving personal goals, now is the time to fine tune things.

It’s definitely time to get rid of everything no longer serving a purpose and whatever is holding you back. Take this time to study the board in front of you, and gather the information you need.

Preparation and planning is the key, and when that moment arrives where you need to speak, write, compete, or make that presentation, you’ll not only be ready, but you’ll have the edge over your competition.

A conjunction between Mercury and the Sun in Virgo gives us exactly what we need to regain our edge.

Big 10 Football

It’s not often that I reminisce about my glory-days of college football, but yeah, I played college football for the Pioneers of William Paterson University, and I’ve been an Ohio State Buckeye fan since 1995.

Basically, my love for football is probably the only thing that can pull me out of this wonderful astrological rabbit hole I often find myself in. And, it’s that time of year already, so let’s get into the briefing.

Ohio State, Rutgers, and Minnesota opened up with conference wins this past weekend. The Buckeyes stole a victory on the road against Indiana, Rutgers was impressive in their 24-7 win over Northwestern, and Minnesota barely squeaked past the Cornhuskers in their 13-10 win-but hey, a wins a win.

The 5’9″ 227 pound senior tailback, Miyan Williams, stood out in Ohio State’s win over the Hoosiers on Saturday, September 2nd. His 3.6 yards-per-carry-average was decent, but then again, he only touched the ball 7 times, however, his two touchdowns accounted for 12 of Ohio State’s final 23 points.

Buckeye QB, Kyle McCord, completed 20 of 33 passes and threw for 239 yards. Not bad.

Oh, and I do have to admit. Indiana did force a fumble late in the second quarter with that hit on McCord. Perhaps, that could’ve changed the momentum the game. Instead of going into the locker room trailing 10-3, the Hoosiers would’ve only been down by 4 against the 3rd ranked team in the nation. That’s definitely something to be proud of and build off of for the second half, but..

Next week, Saturday, September 9th, Ohio State will host Youngstown State at 12 o’clock noon.

Final Scores:

Penn State 38 West Virginia 15

Wisconsin 38 Buffalo 17

Michigan 30 East Carolina 3

Maryland 38 Towson 6

Michigan State 31 Central Michigan 7

Illinois 30 Toledo 28

Iowa 24 Utah State 14

Purdue 35 Freson State 39

Revisiting the Life of Von

BLOCK

I think, I’m not exactly sure because I’ve posted almost 1,100 articles, but I think at some point, I contributed an astrological analysis of the chart from the night of the murder of rapper, Dayvon Bennet, also known as King Von.

Yesterday, I watched the entire YouTube video titled, King Von: Rap’s First Serial Killer, and I commented in the section below, so I’m going to elaborate on that first. From a journalistic perspective, the guy who made the video did an excellent job presenting his findings, and a good job done by the research team as well because that video was almost 4 hours long.

There are three things I would like to say about that. Look at the title of the video. Remember something, the guy who made the video did so to prove his belief that King Von was rap’s first serial killer. So, right from go, as good as that video was, it was bias to the spin the creator wanted to put on the story.

Point being, if I set out to prove King Von was rap’s first God, then I’m sure I could prove that point using the same discovery used to make that video. Two people can look at the same thing and have two different opinions. Some people say Von was the devil incarnate, and some think he was a soldier of God.

The second thing I wanted to say about the video, was that it’s unbelievable how everything we say on social media, and write in the comments of videos or on our own platforms is analyzed and recorded for fine-tooth-comb investigation.

Sometimes we wake up and we just comment on whatever account to share how we’re feeling, with no meaning behind our words, but there are people out here who can take everything we say and write and create whatever image of us they want. It’s a shame, and it’s almost a set-up for failure or self-incrimination.

The third thing is that I really believe Lil Durk was an angel sent by God to save Von’s life.

Okay..

Moving on from that Video, well, kind of but not totally, because that video was the basis for this post, there was something in that video that really stuck out to me, because it was right in my wheelhouse of personal interests.

King Von used the phrase a lot: “On King David.”

I’m pretty sure they explained who King David was in the beginning of the video, and I think he was someone from the same neighborhood, but this is where I separate from the video.

My wheelhouse is mythology, religion, history, ancient history, metaphysics, and I’ve been practicing and studying astrology since 2008. I’m starting to realize there’s a whole side of astrology that’s covered up to make it appear more positive and appealing for the mainstream viewers.

Why cover it up?

If your entire life from birth to death was spelled out in your chart, would you want to know that? Not many people do.

As time goes on, I’m starting to realize there are a lot things about humans in general that are beyond coincidence, and through my life and the lives of others, some things are starting to become clear.

King David was the 3rd king of the United Monarchy of Israel and Judah. King David was from the Tribe of Judah and later succeeded by his son, Solomon.

What does this have to do with King Von?

Von was a Leo (Lion of Judah), and not only was he a Leo, but he was born on August 9th. August 9th is specifically important because numerology tells us the special or lucky numbers for Leo are 8 (August) and 9 (his day).

The YouTube video can present King Von as rap’s first serial killer (because that’s appealing to mainstream viewers), but let’s put the word-play aside because only God can judge us.

Leo holds creative power, and it’s the only sign in the zodiac ruled by the Sun. Without the light and warmth of the Sun/Son, there is no life on earth. Having the power to create can be used in two ways, we can kill and destroy, or we can make things, but both are opposite sides of the same coin.

I’m not a Leo, I’m an Aquarius, but I have Leo on the ascendant at the 1st degree, and my North Node, which is where we’re supposed to be striving to be in this lifetime, is on the 29th degree of Leo bordering Virgo in the second house.

Because my North Node borders Leo and Virgo, I use both signs as a marker of where I’m supposed to be and what I’m supposed to be doing in this life.

There are signs within the signs and houses that will guide us. When you get to level of manifesting, you will start seeing these signs in your environment. They will literally come off the page and out of your head and appear in your environment.

After a serious fight in high school landed me in a juvenile detention center on Christmas Day (Jesus/Judah) when I was 17 (8+9=17), I decided to turn my life around. I graduated high school, went to college, played football for four years, and graduated on August 23, 2003.

The numbers 2 and 3 are important here. Biblically, 23 represents death. So, was graduating on the 23rd day of August in 2003 a symbolic death of my old life and a rebirth of a new one? Possibly.

King Von was born in 1994. 1+9+9+4=23

In the early 2000’s I tried to buy a gun, but I was denied. It was almost 10 years after the fight I had in High school. I had no adult record, and they say your juvenile record isn’t supposed to count against you as an adult. So, why was I denied the firearm?

Perhaps, it was the grace of God, and perhaps, my life was saved that day.

I don’t really know, but as I look at the life of King Von, someone who really lived that life, and make these comparisons, the more I realize that the Grace of God is supposed to prevent untimely deaths.

We’re all here for a reason, and we all have shit to do here that’s going to take our entire lives to complete. An untimely death cuts the story of your life off, and that’s why God sent Lil Durk to Von.

A sad turn of events for sure, but at the end of the day, even killers will make it to heaven.

We’re all children of the same creator trying to find our way home.

The Right People Can Further a Dream

This made so much sense to me when I heard it..

I used to train jujitsu at a small school in New Jersey, and there was a guy there who went on to become a professional and he fought in the UFC.

He was being interviewed 12 years ago, and they asked him about how it all started for him, and his answer was this:

“I was in Atlantic City scheduled to fight, and several guys belonging to a reputable team in Florida were at the event as well. They saw me and invited me to go to Florida to train with them and the rest was history.

It wasn’t that the guys at my school in New Jersey were bad or not good to train with, they just weren’t taking it as serious as I was.”

Of the many jobs I’ve had over the years, people ask about what jobs I liked and which I didn’t, but I tell them, there was never a job I didn’t like. It always came down to the people I worked with.

And, so, I’m at this point again where I need to make a decision about my next job, and I’ve been thinking about my experiences and what my friend from jujitsu said.

Given what I know about myself-taking into consideration, my intelligence, drive to be successful, personality, and passion, I ask myself, “how do I go about finding that job or that group of people who can take me to the next level?”

What’s it going to take to finally cement a foundation from which I can build the rest of my life?

Inferiority Complex? Not My Problem

Well, I just lost my second full time job this year. What happened this time? Basically, I was challenged to a fight by a coward, and then I was fired. It was my second week of work, and the tension was building since the second day! The second day!!!!!

Who has a problem on the second day of work?

Apparently, me.

I can’t believe the hatting that’s going on here. I never in my life, thought, people would have a problem with another person working for a living. I’m not a celebrity who’s making easy money. I’m getting up every day and going to work for shit money. And, people still have a problem with that.

The jealousy and the envy is beyond imaginable, and all I’m trying to do is earn a paycheck.

I can’t even get trained properly by the female who’s training me without 2 or 3 guys coming in the room and showing off, carrying on, singing real loud, yelling, making a scene, obnoxious, rude…grown ass men-being so immaturely needy for attention, approval, and validation.

Are you kidding me?

I don’t need to stroke your ego.

I don’t need to even look at you.

I don’t need to laugh at you, and you’re not funny anyway.

30-year-olds acting like middle school children.

I was hired last week, and I was told, and I quote, “There’s not one bad egg in this building.”

Oh, really? So, I guess employees who lose all control and try to pick a fight with other employees is a good egg?

You know what?

I picked this job because it was something I was truly interested in. Despite the work and shitty pay, I wanted it because I really felt it was a good place for me, but you never can gauge the shithole, scummy, low-life attitudes of the people you work with until you actually start working.

So, the piece of worthless trash coward who lost control, yelled, cursed, and challenged me to fight gets to keep his job, and I’m out? Well, fuck you, fuck your cops, fuck your business, and fuck your staff.

Why am I behaving?

I’m behaving because the job is important to me, paying my bills is important to me, and being a productive member of society is important to me, but if I’m going to continuously be fired for no reason at all while I’m being attacked and challenged, until I’m driven into poverty, then I might as well start fighting. My life is on the line. My future is on the line.

You’re gonna fire me anyway. You’re firing me now and I’m the victim!

You’re supposed to support and help good people, not treat them unfairly and challenge them because you have an inferiority complex.

Blue Moon Scope

August 30, 2023 Edition

Friends, Fans, and Followers..

Thank you for visiting N.B. and welcome to the August 30, 2023 edition of Moon Scope.

Wow, so, there’s a lot going on with this lunar cycle, but we’ll start with the Blue Moon. There was a phrase people used to say, and I can remember my grandmother specifically saying it. Instead of saying, once in a while, she would say, “Once in a blue moon.” It was another way of saying something barely happens, or rarely happens.

As far as astrology or astronomy is concerned, a blue moon is the second full moon in a month. It’s rare that we have two full moons in the same month, and it won’t be until May of 2026 that it will happen again.

Is it really rare though?

Well, our calendar, which is also called the Julian calendar, is based on the solar cycle (365.25 days per year). We have 12 months, and each month typically has one new moon and one full moon, so, it’s rare and kind of a big deal when that extra full moon shows up. However, a lunar calendar has 13 months, so naturally, it’s accounted for.

Anyways, the Moon won’t be turning blue tomorrow night.

If you remember, this moon cycle began in Leo on the 16th of this month. I published a post titled, Dear God, I wrote it on the night of the new moon, and if you want, you can go back and read it.

The current moon cycle culminates tomorrow night in Pisces-a blue full moon in Pisces. The Moon represents the subconscious mind, and since it’s in Pisces, we could experience thoughts pertaining to mental institutions, prisons, rehab centers, and karmic justice.

The new moon in Leo gave us a fresh start and an opportunity to create a new life for ourselves, and if you took advantage of that energy, this culmination should provide some major revelations. As much as it hurts, we sometimes need to let go. Perhaps, we tried to kick a bad habit ourselves, and it didn’t work. So, you come to grips with the reality of your situation and respond with, “I tried. I need help, and I’m going into a rehabilitation facility.”

Maybe there’s someone in your family, or a friend of yours who’s a habitual law breaker. He/she might be a criminal, and you as the parent or the close friend, have been downplaying their situation and covering for that person. Sometimes, it’s the loss of freedom that wakes people up to turn their lives around.

Pisces is the natural ruler of the 12th House, and the 12th House is full of mystery. It’s the end of the road (wheel) and it deals with issues involving karma, the law of return, and cause and effect.

Here’s a great example. I caught chickenpox when I was in kindergarten. Now, here I am, it’s almost 40 years later and I just had an outbreak of shingles last week. I had know idea shingles lies dormant in your body once you catch chickenpox. It’s cause and affect. Anyway, I’m feeling better, kind of, but that’s a great example.

Intuition and spirituality are definitely highlighted now because the sign is Pisces and Pisces is a water sign. Pisces is also mutable, which means we are going to be more open minded and more receptive than usual.

Suddenly, we gain the ability of being molded by the energy of our environment, if that’s what we chose to do. As the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. It’s not a time for confrontation or conflict. Ride the waves and let your intuition guide the way forward.

2 and 6 are the luck numbers.

Breaking News! Soul Alignment

I wrote about this briefly on Twitter last month, but it’s still going on, so, I’m going to share it with all of you.

The picture to the right is from Chiron, a book written by Barbara Hand Clow. If you look at the top of this pyramid, you’ll see the outer planets capping off the soul level of human maturation or development. Neptune is in the middle, Pluto is to the right, and Uranus on the left. This is the peak of human consciousness.

The picture below is the current astrological alignment represented in the Chart of the Moment given to us by Astro dot com.

I rotated this image so you could see what’s staring us all in the face. You can see Neptune in Pisces at the top of the triangle, Pluto is to the right in Capricorn, and Uranus is to the right in Taurus. So, this alignment, represents the peak of human consciousness, and it’s the outer planets capping off the soul level of human maturation development.

Some of us will see it immediately, and some of us will have to stare at the image for a bit, but eventually, what should appear to you (if you’re ready to see it) is a 3-dimensional triangle with the energetic aspect lines connecting the planets shooting into the triangle, representing the crown, or top of our heads, and down to Mercury and Mars in Virgo and Libra.

Can you see that?

It’s a great time to meditate, and it should be a great time to heal and ask for answers to questions that we normally wouldn’t receive. Notice how Mercury and Mars are at the bottom, which definitely puts them in opposition to Neptune.

Are we being asked to chose between our violent warring selves and our spiritual development or higher selves? I think so, because we’re way overdue for this change. Clow wrote about this in her book, Mayan Code.

The picture on the right is from her book, Mayan Code, and it shows that our evolutionary genetic strain for aggressive man went into extinction in 2011! The “Peaceful Man” is what’s going to survive on. This is why there’s so much manipulation behind war and fighting, it’s always fueled by something, and that’s because as a species, we’ve moved beyond violence. If you’re like me, and you just can’t be around certain people anymore, or certain attitudes, or certain behavior, don’t fight it. Don’t be afraid to let go and follow the guidance.

Wow, I guess Alister Crowley (featured image) doesn’t look so ridiculous now does he?

I got that picture from:

Good Evening

Tonight, I just felt like typing, about nothing in particular.

I hope you enjoyed, “Where’s the Rest of it.” I don’t write much short story fiction because I’ve been so immersed in astrology, but I think at some point I’ll get back into story telling.

I’ve also been working on my fourth book, which is still untitled. I don’t know what I’m going to call it, but it’s definitely going to be a contribution to astrology. Currently, I’m working on a chapter that’s about goddesses, and seriously, when it comes to understanding the planetary gods and goddesses in our charts, nothing can be more helpful than studying mythology.

I’d say, probably for the last two years, I’ve been delving (I can’t stand that word-delving), but when it comes to mythology, that’s what I’ve been doing-delving into it.

And, as far as the internet goes, Wikipedia is great to reference for a snapshot of something, but when you’re ready to get real about things, you must hit the books.

There’s so much out here too in terms of information, and every author has his/her own style of how they approach their respective subjects, but I’ve been reading Greek Gods, Human Lives, written by Mary Lefkowitz.

Photo by Mehmet Turgut Kirkgoz on Pexels.com

As a matter of fact, I just reached out to her through email, to tell her how happy I am with her book, and boy oh boy is it a good one.

So, I researched Juno, the Roman Goddess, on Wikipedia, and Wikipedia gives you lots of information, but it’s missing something, and that something is what you get out of the texts. Information online becomes popular opinion after a while because no one bothers to research anymore..

but, in Greek Gods, Human Lives, you’ll learn that Juno was an angry and hateful goddess. She was married to Jupiter, King of the Gods, so that made her Queen of the Gods, but she just had so much hate in her heart because of her attachment to Carthage. And, she persecuted the mortal, Aeneas because she knew his descendants in Italy were eventually going to destroy Carthage, but of course, Aeneas didn’t know that.

She hated him because he was a Trojan, and she made his life very very difficult. She hated Paris for rejecting her beauty, and she hated Ganymede because Jupiter chose him as his lover and made him immortal. I mean, I guess she had a reason to be upset since she was married to Jupiter, but that wasn’t Ganymede’s fault.

So, she just harbored this hate and resentment, and that’s not good because she had the power to make the human condition worse than it was.

Anyway, my point is that when you familiarize yourself with the mythology, you’ll have a whole new perspective when you glance at an astrological chart and see the position of a god or goddess.

Interesting stuff..

Have a good night everyone, and thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet.

Hidden Gem

I drove past it yesterday, and I said to myself, “Oooh! I have to go back there!” Today, I did.

For me personally, places like A.L. Bergstresser & Son are what make Pennsylvania so appealing.

The picture you see to the right is the storefront, and you just don’t see many places like this anymore. When I walked inside today, I felt like I was spun back in time to the Wild West or somewhere down South. There’s an ATM out front on the porch, as you can see, and when you walk through the door, you’ll find yourself in the cozy seating area of an amazing eatery. The food is great and the prices are affordable.

They have a little of everything-an old fashioned general store still standing in modern times. The address is listed as 3640 Lower Saucon Rd., in Wassergas, Pennsylvania.

And, here it is in 1906! The best part about this property is that there’s an antique store right behind it. It looks like it’s connected from the side street, but it isn’t. A.L. Bergstresser is on the corner and the antique store is just before it.

If you’re looking for something to do one morning on the weekend, you can have breakfast cooked for you, fresh coffee brewed, and browse the antique store! A.L. Bergstresser is quiet little place in a quiet little part of town..

definitely, a hidden gem!

Dear God

I forgot to publish this. I wrote it on the night of the last new moon.

Dear God:

I thought tonight would be a perfect time to thank you.

As of late, you’ve probably been feeling the stifling hot air emanating from my essence here on earth due to my constant complaining, cursing, and questioning, but after several good things happened recently..

it would only be right for me to thank you when things go right if I’m going to complain to you when they go wrong.

What I’ve learned is that your timing is perfect, and you would never put something on my plate if you didn’t think I could handle it.

It’s one thing say,

“You lost that because something greater is coming.”

“This happened because God is trying to teach you something.”

“God has a special plan for you, it just hasn’t manifested yet.”

And, it’s a completely different thing entirely to truly believe all that in your mind, and living each and every day feeling it in your heart.

As I continue to walk this path, I do so humbly, with appreciation and gratitude, love, and care reserved. I never stopped believing, and I never stopped trusting, I just didn’t understand why you do the things you do.

I do now.

There is a chosen purpose for this life, and I know the ordinary person would have to be pulled so far off the beaten path to realize that, but it’s true.

On this beautiful evening, as this new moon cycle commences in the sign of the Lion, let us celebrate. Let us enjoy the love and warmth that only a creator can feel for his creation.
