Moon Scope
"The Eagle has Landed"

Good evening beloved. I’m writing this Moon Scope on the evening of Augustus 1st for the Full Moon coming up on Augustus 9th. On my way to do laundry this morning, I saw a huge eagle swoop down and park itself on a fencepost that overlooked my car. I’ve never been that close to an eagle before, but spiritually, I know the eagle’s presence is a very good omen.

In many spiritual traditions, the eagle is a sign of inner strength, and it provides a hint to follow an inner spiritual journey. They’re powerful, they’re messengers, and for a long time, they’ve been seen as a connection to the spiritual realms. The eagle can also symbolize freedom, courage, bravery, and vision.

Yesterday, I had a vision of spirits playing in the earth’s oceans, and it was in the waters that these spirits were given form. This is extremely interesting because for the past two weeks, I’ve been concentrating on that tight conjunction between Saturn and Neptune in the sign, Aries.

In the sign of Aries on the first and second degrees, which of course, is the area of the wheel that represents the spring equinox (rebirth/renewal/coming back to life), Saturn, the planet of death and form, linked with the planet of spirituality, can be interpreted as the death of the spirit, or the death of the form of spirit.

Like the spirits in my vision taking on new shapes and new forms in the water, this conjunction between Saturn and Neptune, although representing the death or destruction of spiritual form, gives new form to spirit by its placement in Aries. As I was contemplating these correlations, I opened the Farmer’s Almanac, and underneath the month of August, next to the day of the 6th, the word transfiguration was written bold and big.

Is there a real connection between the eagle, my visions, and the celebration of the transfiguration of Jesus? I would say so, and I’ll be contemplating all of this now as the days continue to pass and we get closer to the Moon’s culmination phase.

When we consider the eagle in relationship to astrology, we’re talking about the Constellation Aquila (Latin for Eagle), and its brightest star, Altair. Aquarius and Aquila are neighboring constellations, and mythologically speaking, Jupiter, the King of the Gods, looked down from the heavens and noticed Ganymede (Aquarius). Ganymede was the son of one of the kings of Troy, and Jupiter was obsessed with his beauty.

So, Jupiter decided to transform (transfigure/change shape/become something else or something different/change form) himself into an eagle (Aquila) and kidnap Ganymede (Aquarius). Jupiter then placed them both in the heavens, Aquarius as the Water Bearer, and Aquila as the eagle.

From a personal standpoint, I just looked ahead at the chart for the Full Moon in Aquarius on August 9th, and the Moon will be on the 17th degree of Aquarius in opposition to the Sun on the 17th degree of Leo. This is indeed personal because my natal Sun is on the 18th degree of Aquarius! The precise time for this Full Moon is 3:55 a.m., and to have the Moon in that placement really validates the visions and the appearance of the eagle.

It's important for all of us to know:

Altair, Aquila’s brightest star, will be conjunct Pluto in the Seventh House, the conjunction between Saturn (Aries 1st degree) and Neptune (Aries 1st degree) will be conjunct the Midheaven (Aries 2 degrees), Mars (Libra 1st degree) is conjunct the Nadir/IC (Libra 2 degrees), which also puts the God of War in opposition to the conjunction between Saturn and Neptune on the Midheaven, the Sun (Second House Leo) and the Moon (Eighth House Aquarius) will be in opposition, and Venus and Jupiter will be conjoined in Cancer in the Twelfth House.

There’s a lot going on astrologically, and I’m not going to interpret all of that for you because the focus of this article is supposed to be on the Full Moon (sorry for all the other information, however, I do find it relative for this reading), but I do encourage all of you to do your own research concerning those alignments on the 9th at 3:55 a.m., especially if any of your natal alignments correlate in some way.

As the Moon on the 9th will be lit up to the max, our attention and focus will shift to Eight House matters. We could be thinking about or awaiting information involving surgeries, or reproductive organs, death, birth, rebirth/transformation, reincarnation, legacies and wills, and money and property belonging to other people.

Be careful of cheating and bringing home a sexually transmitted disease. Be careful of cheating and getting pregnant. Fellas, wear protection. Now’s not the time.

Since the Eighth House is ruled by Pluto, and Pluto as we’ve mentioned, will be conjunct Altair in the Seventh House, we know these Eight House matters will involve a partner or manifest through some type of relationship.

This makes the opposition between the Moon (feminine/mother/wife/girl) and the Sun (masculine/father/husband/boy) that much more important because we could literally be warring with someone very close to us about personal property and money. What’s yours? What’s mine?

If we’re vulnerable to the darker side of Pluto, this can be nasty (like Jupiter kidnapping the King of Troy’s Son)!

Without a doubt, the opposition between the Sun and Moon could indicate a lot of stress between couples and within marriages. Divorces, fighting for custody, alimony, money due, and some of us might even be fighting for basic necessities that are needed for survival. You might have to move or vacate someone’s property even if you’ve lived there for a long time. This can be difficult to deal with emotionally, and we can see the square between Mercury and Pluto making communication difficult.

Beware. Pride cometh before the fall!

Leo is kingly, regal, and potentially self-centered. With Mercury in Leo in the First House, squared Pluto in the Seventh House, we’re speaking pridefully and authoritatively. We can be self-centered and selfish, and it will manifest through all forms of communication be it the spoken or written word, tweeted, texted, or in video form.

Communication could be fully charged with pride, and the fixed qualities of Leo and Aquarius could have us bordering on dictatorship. We could be very stubborn and extremely resistant to change now.

Remember something, Jesus as the Son of God could’ve had a whole lot to say, and he could’ve saved himself from crucifixion if he told the Romans that he was the Messiah, but he didn’t. He remained humble, and he asked the Father to forgive those who knew not what they were doing.

We all have hope during this time, and it’s coming from the conjunction between Saturn and Neptune in the Ninth House conjunct the Midheaven in Aries. Don’t be afraid to leave, or to embark on that long journey. You can take the high road, and there’s a lot of compassion in the Ninth House right now.

The conjunction between Venus and Jupiter in Cancer is showing an expansion or a growing of love. We could be reconnecting with our mothers and resolving old issues. With love in their hearts and with good intent, people will be entering or leaving prisons, hospitals, or drug rehabilitation centers. If your relationship with your parents has been suffering because of a drug or alcohol addiction, it can be repaired now.

As we continue to get closer to the 9th, resist the temptation to play aloof. Stay in the moment. Let the creativity flow out from within, and keep in mind that Aquarius is the sign of the humanitarian. We are tolerant, and if we can get close enough with people to earn their trust and loyalty, they might be willing hear our grand ideas or our idealistic plans for the future.

This is about standing in our power now and showing others that we’re capable. We’re thinking clearly, we got our shit together, and we can be trusted with important responsibility. Our loyalty remains with those who’ve always supported us and loved us.

Don’t be a mystery, and don’t beat around the bush. Gracefully, respectfully, and tactfully-that’s how you should be conveying the truth now. You’re not helping anyone when you laugh at something that isn’t funny, when you pretend to be interested in something you could care less about, or when you go through the motions.

Move with intent and purpose and if you can, try to give 100% of yourself to every interaction that you have.

My friends, change is in the air. Spiritually and metaphysically, something huge is going on right now, and it began last week with three deaths (Eighth House). Malcom Jamal Warner died on 7/20, Ozzy Osbourne on 7/22, and Terry Bollea on 7/24. I already showed you guys the numerology and the chart involved with all of that in the last article I posted.

Now, I’m having the visions of the spirits playing in water, the eagle appeared today, the Transfiguration will be celebrated this week on the 6th, and the Moon culminates on the 9th.

Pray, meditate, love, and act with compassion. I have this wonderful feeling concerning the universe, magik, and the ability for each and every one of us to use our God-given free will to manifest a life of prosperity, abundance, love, and fulfillment.

When the Moon culminates on the 9th, we will get the answers we seek. It will be a time of revelations, so align yourself properly. Aquarius involves the masses, mass consciousness, and large groups of people that have come together because of similar interests-religious, political, human rights, financial gain, etc.

Where do we fit in? Where can we do our greatest good?

It’s a Tug of War Between the Sun and Pluto

July 17, 2025

At 8:30 p.m., there was a lot of stress in the chart between the Sun, Pluto, and the Moon.

As you can see from my fabulous drawing, the horizontal axis connecting the ascendent and descendent run across the chart from the 28th degree of Capricorn to the 28th degree of Cancer. The opposition between those two points is natural.

However, four degrees below the ascendent is Pluto on the 2nd degree of Aquarius, and three degrees below the descendent is the Sun on the 25th degree of Cancer.

So, there’s an opposition between Pluto in Aquarius in the First House, and the Sun in Cancer in the Sixth House. The opposition is an aspect of tension, and for the two planets involved, it’s like a tug of war as both pull in opposite directions.

Oppositions almost always cause us to choose between one force or the other because we cannot have it both ways.

Pluto is the God of Emotional Encountering and the Eliminator. It’s a planet of tremendous power, and sitting so close to the ascendent like that, his energy will be influential right now.

The First House is the House of Self, it represents us personally, and Aquarius is the outgoing and friendly air sign representing intellect and humanitarianism.

With Aquarius we’re possibly dealing with large groups of people, and possible social movements. There’s going to be deep emotional experiences coming in through Pluto in Aquarius in the First House as we may or may not identify personally with such groups. These are the types of emotional experiences that motivate us to take action or make immediate changes in our lives. Aquarius brings the world’s stage and the collective to a house that would otherwise be personal or individualistic in nature.

We might be quick to pick up a sign and protest for what we believe in, or we might shun the groups representing what we don’t believe in. We’re getting in where we fit in, learning, and making the most out of our experiences. Pluto puts all the options on the table. Are you going to be a murderer? Are you going to be the CEO of a large corporation? An emperor? A Dictator? Are you going to exploit the group for personal gain, or is your heart sincerely down for the cause?

Pluto has a way of eliminating what no longer works, and he seems to do it in a way no one notices.

On the opposite side of all this, we have the Sun. The Sun represents our will, vitality, virility, dignity, warmth, and the force that gives life to everything around us. It’s our soul, the king in us, and the path of destiny.

The Sixth House deals with health, service, and work, and Cancer is the sign of loyalty, protection, and nurturing.

In the Sixth House, the Sun is putting a spotlight on issues close to home. It’s almost like we’re being forced to choose between the small town and the familiar stuff close to home that we’re used to, or taking a real chance at making your mark on the world.

Where does your loyalty lie? Maybe it’s time to let the larger issues of the world go, since they’re not directly affecting us, and turn our focus on the things close to home that are.

Health and faith. If you’re healthy, and if your beliefs are strong, you can go a long way. Conquering the world and fighting for the cause might be appealing now if you have both, but the real treasures you seek might be closer to home than you think.

Both, Pluto in Aquarius in the First House, and the Sun in Cancer in the Sixth House are being blocked by the Moon in Aries in the Third House.

We might not be getting the support from family members that we thought we would. Fighting and arguing with aunts and uncles could be draining us in the heat of this summer. Transportation could be an issue, and so could communications. Aries is the fiery sign of war and aggressions.

Think before you react to someone or something. Just take a second. The Moon in Aries could be a blessing, but it’s conflicting with the agendas of Pluto and the Sun. All is not lost however, because the obstacles presented in the square, give us the greatest opportunities to learn and grow.

Right now, it appears as if we need to make a choice and then deal with whatever comes from that decision, but a choice must be made.

Moon Scope

January 29, 2025 Edition

Friends, fans, and followers, grace and peace multiplied to you. Thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet, and welcome to this edition of Nooz Now.

2025 is just about a month old, and the new lunar cycle beginning today in the astrological sign, Aquarius, will be the first full cycle of this new year. The energies associated with 2024 have now blended into nothingness, and 2025 is official!

The time given for the new moon is 12:36 a.m., and at that time, we find the moon in the Third House on the 5th degree of Aquarius. There’s also a conjunction involving the Moon, Pluto, the Sun, and Mercury. Wow, that’s four planets.

On a subconscious level, there’s a lot going on at this time. The Third House is known as the House of Communications, but the energies in the Third House can manifest in many different areas.

Subconsciously, we might be thinking about our relationships with family members or members of our family in general, and this includes distant relatives like aunts and uncles and cousins. We might be thinking about how we spend our time around the house or in the neighborhood, and the methods we use for traveling or making trips of short distance.

You know, now that I’m sitting here and thinking about this, a Third House Moon is an excellent way to begin this year because it puts the focus on personal matters that are close to heart. It’s kind of like the saying, “you must first crawl before you learn to walk.”

The Third House is also the last house of the first section of the chart. The first section includes Houses One, Two, and Three, and these houses are all about self-awareness. The Third House is the gateway to the Fourth House, and once we get into the Fourth House the second section of the chart is about the integration of the self with the environment.

In a sense, we’re getting ourselves and our house in order before we take on the environment and the world around us. This is an excellent way to begin 2025.

During this time, some of us will be attempting to resolve issues with family members. If you don’t like the way things are going, talk about it. The Third House rules communication, and don’t forget, Mercury, the God of Communication is involved here.

Some of us might be moving and changing addresses, and for those of us who have children, you might be dealing with the decision to put your child/children in a different school or homeschooling them. Mercury is going direct at this time in Aquarius so discussions will have a purpose now. How can we make things better? How can we be more productive? What do we need to do to put ourselves in a better situation?

If a conversation is beginning to turn into an argument, remember, it’s the start of brand-new year. How do you want to begin it? Do you want to argue for argument’s sake, or do you want to have a mature discussion? Regroup and think about the purpose. Get to the point, and address the issues.

Most conversations will be about forward progress and the future, but don’t get too caught up in what will be or what was because this alignment is definitely about the here and now.

Pluto in this situation will ensure 2025 begins in the most productive way, and this I find truly interesting. Pluto’s appearance indicates serious issues and topics that are going to touch us deep emotionally. That means, we’re going to be super-charged emotionally, and when some of us are triggered emotionally, look out-but, that was the old us?

At this point, things should be pretty cut and dry, meaning, we should already know what needs to be done, we just have to get the ball rolling so that it has momentum when it reaches the Fourth House and we begin to integrate with our environment.

Now, don’t get me wrong, Pluto has a very dark side, but there’s a time and place for everything. Some of us might really need to have our voices heard. Some of us might really need to make some noise to let people know we exist, but that won’t be the case for all of us.

I’m telling you this so you have a full and complete understanding of the energies at this time. If you’re capable of processing and handling emotions, you can ride Pluto’s energy all the way to the bank. If you haven’t figured out how to process deep emotional turmoil, this might be a very chaotic and potentially violent time.

When you’re not working or at school, this might be a great time for you to find a personal outlet, and I’m going to recommend journaling, writing, and maybe even meeting with and speaking with small groups of like minded people because hey, we are in the Third House.

If the pressure and the stress is building up inside of you, the most valuable thing at this time might be having someone who you trust so you can talk.

Having said that, you should, at this time, make yourself available for the people in your life. Just picking up the phone and answering that call instead of sending it to voicemail could make all the difference in someone’s life.

Remember, Aquarius is the sign of the time. He’s friendly, outgoing, and concerned with the world around him. Aquarius is a fixed sign, so his problem can be his rigidity and refusal to consider the opinions of others, but now that you’re aware of this, you should be able to guard against it.

Aquarius is a futuristic sign, and with the Sun present on the 9th degree, the future indeed looks bright. We just have to handle the small things in our lives and around the house to ensure that.

Lunar energy is feminine, and solar energy is masculine. It’s beautiful to have both of these luminaries together and separated by only four degrees in Aquarius for this new moon.

This will be the first full lunar cycle of 2025. If you set your intent today, you’ll have the magic of the universe behind you. So, when you’re planting your little seeds, keep in mind that you’re not only preparing for this lunar cycle, but the year as well.

What were your resolutions for the New Year on January 1st? Revisit them, and write them down.

It’s a wonderful time, and it’s an exciting time of new beginnings. Make the most out if it.

And don’t forget about Venus.

Venus is just now coming to the end of her transit through Pisces. The Goddess of Love and Beauty should enter Aries on the 4th of February. Single men and woman who are looking for love have two opportunities to find it. The first is between February 4th and March 27th when Venus is going direct in Aries, and the second is at the end of April when Venus goes direct again. Venus will go retrograde for most of April, but things should be much clearer after that.

Alright everyone, I’ll see you at the full moon!

A New Moon Cycle Beginning In the Sign of The Water Bearer

Beloved, how are you? As usual, there’s a lot going on, and I guess we can start with the New Moon coming up on the 9th in Aquarius. We’ll get a brand-new moon cycle beginning Friday in the sign of The Water Bearer.

Imbolc, the first day of spring according to Gaelic and Craft traditions, was celebrated on the 2nd of February. In Christian traditions, Imbolc is called Saint Brigid’s Day. Saint Brigid is the patroness saint of Ireland.

I don’t know how many people are aware of this, but February was a Roman month called Februarius, and that comes from the Latin term, Februum, which means purification. So, at its root, February is the month of purification. I actually wrote and published a poem here on N.B. called Purification. I’ll pin it up later this evening.

But, yeah, purification. If you really want to start the year off properly, February would be the ideal month rid the body of toxins and drop old habits. The universe supports it. 2024 is a leap year, so, the month of February will have 29 days in it.

Rex-Infernus Makes His Way Into Aquarius

Subscribe to get access

I think Pluto might retrograde back into Capricorn one more time, but once November 19th arrives, it’s full speed ahead, and Pluto will remain in Aquarius until 2044. Pluto was last in Aquarius in 1778, and it stayed for twenty years until 1798. So, as far as cycles are concerned, this is a big deal. 

As a country, Pluto’s entrance in Aquarius brings back memories of the American Revolution, independence, and freedom. 

Pluto (Rex-Infernus) is Greek god who ruled the underworld, and his Roman counterpart is Dis Pater. 

Pluto, the planet, has an orbital period of approximately 246 years.

You know, I’ve done my fair share of research on Pluto, and when it comes to astrology, I’ve seen Pluto defined in so many different ways. And, before I go any further, I should first mention that just like you always see me writing about the “mainstream” and “narratives” when it comes to regular news stories, there’s also a “mainstream” narrative of astrological news as well. 

The point is that it really matters who and where you’re getting your information from. I don’t consider myself the end-all-be-all when it comes to epithets concerning Pluto, but I’m well studied.

Descendant, Origin of the Soul; Conversation

Part 1 and Part 2 of Descendant, Origin of the Soul has been published.

I’m trying to figure out how I can open this up for conversation and exactly what I’m trying to get out of it.

If you have a descendant between the 25th degree of Capricorn and the 5th degree of Aquarius, I’d like to know if your life feels fated in some way. I’d like to know if you feel like you have a purpose; do you feel like you were put here for something specific?

Do you feel like you lived before?

I have to be honest here, this spiritual path for me came out of nowhere around 2007, and I’m just now starting to understand why it did. Everything points to independence and self-discovery; like a detachment from the collective to learn about myself, and then return when I have something worth sharing.

I’d like to hear from you! Have a great day.

Station 1

For those who have eyes to see, let them see. Two days ago, I posted an article about Pluto entering Aquarius. In that article, I mentioned a few things about Aquarius that really stuck out to me when I read this description about the 1st Station of the Cross of Jesus.

The description is below, and it’s from Robert Howell’s book, Inside the Priory of Sion.

I just learned about Ganymede, the beautiful young boy who was abducted by Zeus disguised as an Eagle. Zeus, who was obsessed with Ganymede’s appearance, swooped down to earth, picked him up, and took him to the heavens to be the Cup Bearer for the Gods.

Eventually, they gave Ganymede his place in the heavens, which became the Constellation Aquarius.

Now that you have the back story, let’s get into what the pictures above talk about. In all, there are 14 Stations of the Cross that can be found in some churches. The Stations describe 14 key events that mark the Way of Sorrows, or the route taken by Christ from the site of his judgement to his crucifixion at Calvary.

Above, is the description of the first Station only.

What caught my eye here initially was the mention of the golden gryphon, a mixture of a lion and an eagle.

I have, in my chart Aquarius on the descendant, and Leo on the ascendant. Leo, as we all know, is a lion, and there’s a constellation that borders Aquarius called Aquila. Aquila is Latin for Eagle.

The earth plane is represented by our ascendant and descendant, and when you put that specific combination together, you have the mythological gryphon, which is half lion and half eagle.

It says above that Jesus was condemned by Pilate, and Pilate was being served by a black boy. Black is a color stage in the alchemical process (and so is red, which is the color of Pilate’s hair), and the frequent use of an Ethiopian boy is used in writings and paintings to represent the blackening stage of the ancient process.

Just yesterday, in my article I mentioned that Ethiopia falls under the rulership of Aquarius, and if you continue reading the text in the second photo above, it says a black boy carried a white plate of water with which Pilate washes his hands.

What I just discovered hidden is this text that describes Jesus’s condemnation, is the reference to Aquarius, the Cup Holder, and the Water Bearer!

If Ganymede was taken to heaven to be the Cup Holder or Water Bearer for the Gods, was the crucifixion of Jesus real or a reenactment with subliminal messages for those worthy of understanding?

Also, the four colors of the alchemical process are black, white, yellow, and red. Just when I thought yellow was the only color not mentioned, I remembered the golden (yellow) gryphon.

Red, which is the final color representing completion, is the color of Pilate’s hair. What does this mean for Pilate? Is he in some way, Golden, or like a God?

Well, it says the golden gryphon symbolizes vigilance and courage, and it’s a symbol of good and evil. Think about it; if Pilate’s hair is red, and red is the final color of the process, which means the process is complete and lead has been turned to gold, then Pilate is the golden gryphon. He’s full of courage and vigilance and both good and evil.

I haven’t even looked at the descriptions for the other Stages yet, but this is a good start.

Pluto Readies for 20 Years in Aquarius

It has been called a dwarf planet, a minor planet, and everything else making him seem insignificant and powerless, but please, don’t sleep on the power of Pluto.

I mean, people c’mon! We’re talking about plutonium here.

So, just the other day, we found Pluto on the “zero point” of Aquarius in between houses six and seven, and honestly, I’m glad I wrote that Moon Scope post when I did because I don’t know if I would’ve caught Pluto in that special position otherwise.

I feel like that post was another example of great timing. We were in the right place at the right time, and the reward was a reminder from the Universe that Pluto was at the start of a 20-year stay in the sign of the Water Bearer.

Pluto’s entry into Aquarius actually began last month on the 23rd of March. This is only a short visit, though, lasting until June 11th. After the 11th, Pluto will go retrograde and spend almost the next eight months back in Capricorn.

On January 20, 2024, Pluto will return to Aquarius once again, this time staying for almost eight months until September 1, 2024. After the 1st, Pluto will go retrograde for the second time and remain in Capricorn until November 19, 2024.

Ladies and gentlemen, that will be it. When Pluto returns to Aquarius around the 19th of November in 2024, its transit will have officially begun, and it will not end until March 8, 2043!

I like to think of these retrogrades as Pluto digging in and settling himself down for the long journey ahead. He’s coming from Capricorn, but he makes these series loops to go back and resolve any unfinished business before finally going direct.

Now, believe me, I’m not making this transit personal, but I’m an Aquarian and I know there’s a lot of us out here who are thinking about how their lives are going to be affected by Pluto’s visitation over the next 20 years. I’m 43-years-old, which means by the time Pluto is ready to move on to Pisces, I’ll be 63!

In addition, I wonder what Pluto will do to the sign itself. How will Pluto modify Aquarius, and what truths will he force to the surface? What will come to an end, die, rise again, and ultimately, in what condition will the 11th sign of the zodiac be left in when Pluto finally goes direct in 2043?

Like I said though, I’m not making this personal. It’s always interesting whenever an outer planet moves into a new sign because he or she is there for a very long time. And what about when a sign’s ruling planet finally comes home? That’s exciting! I know all the Pisceans were loving it when Neptune came home.

The truth here, however, is that this transit will effect everyone on a personal level and a generational level, so let’s talk about Pluto.

I should start this by telling you something special is happening. Since Pluto’s discovery in 1930, his recent transit through Capricorn, this upcoming one through Aquarius, and the future one through Pisces will all be a first. That means we’re all witnessing and experiencing something for the very first time. We’re all going through this together.

Since this is Pluto’s first transit through Aquarius, there’s no information to look back on, nothing to compare the current time to, and nothing to foreshadow what possibly lies ahead.

It’s an amazing time to be alive.

Pluto takes on a number of roles, and he has quite a few keywords associated with him. Pluto brings to light things hidden in the depths of your subconscious, he releases dormant forces, and he causes suppressed energy to erupt. Wherever you find Pluto in your chart, you can be sure that area will be one of significant activity, change, and transformation. Pluto signifies death and rebirth. It’s the planet of destruction and annihilation that leads to transformation.

Pluto has been called the eliminator because he wipes the slate clean.

The negative side of Pluto, like I’ve mentioned before, shows us protests, demonstrations, mob violence, wars, bombings, terrorism, and murder. We’re talking about tremendous energy that has the power to create and destroy.

Pluto can show us the best and worst of things, and while being known as the eliminator, he’s also known as the zodiac’s detective.

Pluto likes to dig for truth. He likes to penetrate the surface and get to the root of the issue. When he has what he needs, he holds it up for the entire world to see despite however good or bad it may be. What we must understand about Pluto is that he wants so bad to regenerate and transform, and nothing will prevent him from doing so. Death, destruction, and bringing matters to an end are how he goes about it. This is an inevitable and uncontrollable force that brings about change and a fresh start for the better.

It’s out with the old and in with the new, and Pluto doesn’t care about hurting feelings. His job is to remove whatever is slowing is down or preventing progress and keep us moving forward. If it’s outdated, no longer working, broke, dying, or slowing us down, it must go.

So, what does all this mean for Aquarius?

Did you know Russia, Moscow, Ethiopia, Sweden, and Buenos Aires are all under the rulership of Aquarius? Yup, that’s true. It’s going to be interesting to see what develops between Russia and the Ukraine. The war, fighting, and all conflict will probably cease by 2043, and if it does, we’ll see a brand-new start either way for the better.

Aquarius himself is the sign of the future. He’s a visionary who refuses to follow the crowd. He’s an open-minded, rational seeker of knowledge. Aquarius must be independent and self-sufficient to do his best work. Aquarians are humanitarians, who believe it or not, care deeply about the world. They’re helpful, honest, and altruistic.

Aquarius is the astrological signs of hopes and wishes and the future.

If we’re not getting all of this out of our water bearer, Pluto will remove any blockages. The potential, skills, and ability of Aquarius will be released because of Pluto’s transit. If Aquarius is trapped, Pluto will release him and give him the fresh start he needs.

The next 20 years will be exciting, that’s for sure.

Culmination

Hello and Good Evening Everyone! So, before I begin this post, I just wanted to share some not so good news. Smorgasbord 3 Prophecy and Poverty was turned down by Llewellyn Publishing, and I have some mixed emotions about that. It’s not the end of the world, but the reasons they gave for why they decided to “pass” on it, didn’t seem sincere.

I’d hate to say this, but when your writing is real, intuitive, and comes from the heart, mainstream book publishing companies can be like mainstream news stations. In addition, people are jealous and envious. It’s not uncommon for ideas, and as my brother calls it, mental property to be cherry picked and straight up stolen. The next thing you know, the brother of the woman who works for the publishing company publishes a book with everything I just talked about, but it’s okay for him. I hope that isn’t the case here, but it does happen.

My writing is excellent and my thoughts are brilliant, and there isn’t another creator out here that compares. In 2019 when I handed the original Smorgasbord manuscript in, I set a new standard and broke ground then in the book industry, because my work was uncategorizable and original.

Smorgasbord, as a series, is way ahead of its time, and some people are starting to wake up to that.

Let’s get on with it shall we..

Culmination

Tonight, as we all know, is August 11th, and the moon this evening will be fully illuminated at 100%. After tonight, we’ll have one more full moon on September 10th in Pisces, and that will be the last full moon of our 2022 summer season.

Right now, the moon is in a conjunction with Saturn in Aquarius in the 1st House. These two planets are separated by 5 degrees. This alignment is almost identical to where these two planets were in the astrological chart for the JFK assassination. At 12:30 PM on November 22, 1963, the moon and Saturn were in a conjunction in Aquarius, but in the 12th house. They were separated by 6 degrees, and almost occupied the exact same degrees.

This current moon phase began on July 28th, last month, and tonight, it finally culminates in the sign of the Water Bearer. This new moon was powerful because if you remember, it was home in Cancer. The seeds were sown as we engaged in issues revolving around our home, our roots and who we truly are, and maybe even our mother. And as this cycle culminates, we find it doing so in Aquarius.

Aquarius is the sign of friendship and the future. It’s fixed air, and it’s intellectual. When the intellect is involved (element of air) focus becomes the key for enjoyment. Be present, and be in the moment. We love history, and we love dreaming about the future, but nothing is more important than what you’re doing at this moment.

If you think about where we started, and where we’re at now, this full moon should’ve or should be revealing something to you about yourself as it sits in the first house of self. You’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about who you are, and where you came from, and whenever we have those thoughts, it’s natural for us to think about where we’re going or where we would like to be.

The moon’s conjunction with Saturn in the first house is waking you up to the reality that you are in full control over your life and your future. It’s waking you up to the reality that windfalls are few and far between. Some people can get from point A to point B in a year, and some people can get to B in ten years.

How we get there, and when we get there in this case, isn’t important. All that matters is that you get to point B. Maybe it’s not the prettiest way and maybe it’s not the fastest way, but a step-by-step methodical approach can get you to where you want to be.

A strong foundation is important, and in this moon phase, our home, our roots, and our deepest inner being is directly connected to our future hopes and wishes. The answers you seek are within you.

At this moment, if you’re doing what you need to do, and you’re not cutting corners or taking the easy way out, then you’re in favor with the universe! Big time!!

Remain positive, and hope and wish for all the wonderful things you want and feel like you deserve. You’ll be shocked at what flows into your life.

Your mother is also a key figure here. Let her know she’s appreciated, and thank her for doing what she does. The full moon is a time of culmination, enjoy it.

Smorgasbord A Collection of Thoughts Experiences and Stories

I would like to apologize to everyone who attempted to leave a review for Smorgasbord A Collection of Thoughts Experiences and Stories on Amazon. My friends and supporters are starting to come back to me because they’re having a problem writing reviews; Amazon is not letting them. There’s a pop up message about guidelines or something. I haven’t had time to look into this issue yet, but I will Thursday. If you would still like to write a review, I kindly suggest visiting the Barnes & Noble website instead and writing one there. Like I said, I don’t know what the issue is yet with Amazon so I’m not going to speculate. Thank you for trying, please don’t give up. Head over to Barnes & Noble.

Smorgasbord 2 Catch Up and Relish

It seems like it took forever, but Smorgasbord 2 Catch Up and Relish is near completion! What you see there on the left is the official front and back cover. I’m beyond excited for the release of this book, and I think you’re going to enjoy reading it. Fulton Books in Meadville, Pennsylvania is the publishing company.

Upcoming Projects: I’ve been working on Smorgasbord 3 for a few months now. I don’t want to give away too much too soon, but there will be a third book. The title will be Smorgasbord 3 Poverty & Prophecy, and it’s going to blow you away! Also, I’m thinking about having a Smorgasbord 2 release party somewhere. I will keep you updated and in-the-loop on that.

Well, it’s old news now, but the Rams beat the Bengals and won the Super Bowl! Super Bowl LVI (56) was played last Sunday, February 13th, and it was a close one. The Rams won the game by 3 points with a fourth quarter touchdown pass from Mathew Stafford to Coffee Cup? Oh wait, Copper Kupp. Sorry. 🤣🤣 Up until that point, the Bengals held a 20-16 lead that went all the way down to the wire. To be exact, there was 1:25 left to play when the Rams scored the go-ahead touchdown. Stafford completed 26 out of 40 passes for 283 yards and 3 touchdowns. The Ram’s rushing game was nowhere to be found; Cam Akers ran the ball 13 times for 21 yards and never even reached pay dirt.

Joe Burrow completed 22 passes for 263 yards and 1 touchdown. They were able to run the ball well with Joe Mixon (4.8 yards per carry), and WR Tee Higgins caught 4 passes for 100 yards and 2 touchdowns. In the end though, none of that mattered for the Bengals. On that day, the 13th of February in the year 2022, the Rams were the better team.

♒♓Wow! How fast did the Aquarius birthday season go? I mean seriously, in three more days on the 18th, the sun will move into the astrological sign of Pisces. Honestly, though, I can’t wait. I’m so ready for spring, and I know a lot of you are too. 🌔Currently, the moon is on the 20th degree of fiery Leo, and Venus and Mars are in a body to body conjunction on the 16th degree of Capricorn. Talk about war and peace, huh…

💥Speaking of war, according to Greek Reporter dot com, Russia is now withdrawing its troops from the Ukraine border. I guess they just wanted to get in Ukraine’s face and talk some shit?

💩Oh, BIG STORY here. Eminem kneeled during the half time show.

🏛 I just called the office of the registrar at my alma mater WPUNJ because I wanted some information about registration deadlines. Afterwards, I was scrolling the web, and a story popped up from 2014.

So, five William Paterson University students are or were on trial for the alleged gang rape of a freshman female. The alleged gang rape took place on campus and in a dorm on Tuesday, November 25, 2014.

The five men that were involved all knew each other from the Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF), which offers low-income students an opportunity to go to college with financial aid, preparatory classes and counseling. (Wait a second, wasn’t there just a big issue recently about systemic racism? 😢😢Immigrants and people of color don’t get the same opportunities as white people?)

Well, these five guys (no relation to the restaurant) had a golden opportunity. I told you, all that was bullshit. I can’t speak for other states, but I know for a fact, that New Jersey’s system of higher education has done an amazing job ensuring everyone has a fair and equal opportunity to get educated.

Anyway, there was another incident, but I don’t think it was related. Cherelle Locklear, a 21-year-old junior at WPUNJ committed suicide and her body was found on November 22, 2015. Supposedly, she was raped at an off-campus fraternity house, and her allegations were never investigated. William Paterson University took blame for failing to investigate and paid her family $800,000.

Damn! This isn’t the William Paterson I remember. WTF WPU! Seriously though, this is a shame. I can’t believe it.

🤓I’m gonna drop some real knowledge on y’all. I was totally indoctrinated by the college educational system, and especially because I was a teacher. I believed everything. They used to tell us that inner-city school students are way behind because there’s no money to get them the tools they need to be successful and compete with schools in higher income areas. I was on board with everything-fighting for my students. I was so gung-ho.

And then I get into the classroom, and see students throwing scientific calculators worth hundreds of dollars at the floor and walls. Literally, trying to break them.

And I just sat there for a brief moment watching this, and to myself, I’m like, “wow, if you only knew how hard people fight to get you the shit you need, and here you are trying to break a calculator your parents would have to work two weeks to pay for.”

Case in point-Don’t believe the hype!

Second Case in point-In order for schools to be successful, the students have to be successful, and money has nothing to do with it. The best schools are those where parents, teachers, and administrators have found a middle ground-all coming together, working in unison for the betterment of the child. And of course, once the student sees this cooperation between teachers and parents, their behavior miraculously changes.

Alright my friends, have a wonderful night and a blessed Wednesday. Stay warm!
