Good morning everyone, and welcome to the January 22, 2023 edition of Moon Scope and the first of 2023! Yesterday, January 21st, was the night of the new moon officially, and it was in Capricorn. So, we have this current moon cycle rooting itself in cardinal earth. This tells me the underlying energy of this moon cycle will be fueled by 10th house issues like work and reputation.
This evening, the moon will be 3% illuminated, and if the sky is clear, we should see a beautiful waxing crescent. Tonight’s moon will be in Aquarius, which is the 11th sign of the zodiac, and Aquarius represents the air element and its modality is fixed.
During the first seven nights after the night of the new moon, the moon will be a waxing crescent. This is a time when action us highlighted. While the moon transits Aquarius tonight and tomorrow night on the 23rd, the universe will be supporting our desires for mental pursuits and gathering information.
Going to the library, reading through magazines, or just good old conversation might do the trick. As we gather this information, we do so with future endeavors in mind. Now, most people will tell you it’s not good to constantly live in the future; that’s true, and while we’d be better off finding ways to keep our heads in the present, there’s nothing wrong with contemplating the future for plans and goals.
Time, it’s the one thing we’ll all run out of eventually, so make the most out of it. You can do that by making well-informed decisions, so don’t feel guilty or like you’re wasting time if your research is for a good cause.
As always, with Leo as the polarity here, there’s going to be that struggle between intellect and emotions. Sometimes, not always, but sometimes an emotional response is what the universe calls for, and this is particularly hard for those of us who rely on logic. Case in point?
Whether it’s a well-thought-out decision, or throwing caution to the wind..DO SOMETHING! MAKE A DECISION!
Luger sat contemplating his future. Days and nights were passing by at warp speed as he applied for one job after another. Amazed, he could do nothing but laugh as the bills were piling up on his desk. “Why do the bills seem to come in faster when you don’t have money to pay for them,” he thought to himself.
He took a deep breath in, held it, and exhaled. The pressure was mounting, and this is how he coped with that feeling in his chest. Every night, as he lay in bed starring at the ceiling, he thought about how he could change his life. He needed a fresh start- a new beginning. Or maybe, he needed to just keep trying and pushing. He didn’t know anymore. Then, something pulled him out of bed at three o’clock in the morning, and he found himself looking out of his bedroom window starring at the sky. The thin slice of light in the heavens marked the end of the current moon cycle, for tomorrow, it would be dark.
Moon Analysis
Tomorrow night (December 23) as the sun sets in the evening on the second degree of Capricorn, and the sky darkens, the stars shine extra bright in the absence of moonlight. The new moon in Capricorn will be last new moon of the year leaving us feeling like it’s the beginning of the end. Literally, it is. We get a new moon-a new beginning that will carry us into a new year as 2022 closes out and comes to an end.
There’s definitely pressure mounting, but we block it out for the sake of the holiday season. We’re feeling grounded, and our approach at this time can be purely sensual. We want to laugh as we gather with friends and family. We want to enjoy the moment and take in the beauty that surrounds us. Christmas music, good food, colorful lights, kissing under the mistletoe; we bask in the spirit.
Something deeply important is masked by it all though, and we’re feeling that as well. The cardinal quality of Capricorn bestows us with leadership energy and an enterprising attitude, which will come in handy as we address issues pertaining to our reputation, career paths, and public image. Those are all 10th House issues, the home of Capricorn and her ruler, Saturn.
This is the perfect time, if you can, to meditate and pray. Go within, go deep within and ask for guidance. You see, most of us will head into 2023 with a list of things we want to change and goals we’d like reach. Every year, we have new year’s resolutions, and like an annual tradition, most of us will come in like a lion but go out like a lamb; meaning, half way through the year we’ll have forgotten about what we set out to do or change.
It’s different now though, and that’s because of the new moon. Instead of generating a list of things, pick a few that are really important to you. Concentrate, and plant those seeds. The point is to create your new beginning now, so when January 1st arrives, you’ll already be in flow! That’s quite an opportunity.
Capricorn’s influence on the lunar energy is persistent but patient, steady, consistent, and dependable. We take advantage of every opportunity on our way up. There will be obstacles, and there will be limitations, but discipline will help us overcome. For tips on how to deal with Saturn’s limitations at this time, we can look to his position in Aquarius. It’s really interesting how Saturn at one time, ruled both Capricorn and Aquarius. He rules Capricorn now, but in a sense, he returned to his old sign for this year’s end.
As 2022 comes to an end, and darkness descends upon us, we can’t help but think about a new beginning, but this year, we’re focusing more on the beginning gifted by the new moon, not the one marked by the calendar. And it only makes sense to do so because every new calendar year comes to an end-it’s a never-ending repeating cycle of beginnings and endings.
The moon isn’t going anywhere and the opportunity it’s giving us now involves the creation of a beginning that will last forever.
Story Ending
I guess we’ll find out what happens to Luger in 2023. 😉
And now, I will wish everyone a Merry Christmas, a happy holiday season, and blessed new year. It’s a tradition here at Nooz Buffet for us to take off the last week of the old year and first week of the new year. It’s well deserved and this year will be no different. So, you won’t see anything new up on here until the second week of January.
Friends, Followers, and Fans, I love you, and I appreciate each and every one of you. Thank you for another amazing year, and I’ll see you in 2023.
The approximate dates for Capricorn are December 22nd through January 19th. After leaving the astrological sign of Sagittarius, the Sun enters Capricorn, and as far as our calendar is concerned, that’s in three more days. So, I will take this moment to wish the Capricorns around the world a happy birthday! 🧁🎈🎈💕
Each one of the zodiac signs represents a part of the body; Capricorn governs joints, knees, and bones, therefore, those born with their natal sun in Capricorn are prone to stiffness and orthopedic problems. The symbol representing Capricorn is The Goat. Goats are know for ascending to the highest heights. They take advantage of every opportunity along the way, and they’re particularly known for their steadiness and dependability.
Capricorn is a feminine earth sign, and its quality is cardinal. Cardinal, meaning its a sign of action, initiative, and leadership, but Capricorns are also very reserved. They’re patient and avoid using force.
Saturn is the ruling planet of Capricorn, and Saturn is a bit misunderstood as he’s often associated with evil. Saturn isn’t really evil. His methods are difficult and it seems like he’s always trying to teach us a lesson, but in all fairness, Saturn rules time. His primary role is that of a limiter. Capricorn gets her patience and perseverance from Saturn, and a person who understands and learns how to deal with time has established harmony with Father Time (Saturn).
As the 10th sign of the zodiac, Capricorn rules the 10th House, and the 10th House deals with our careers, our reputations, and how we’re seen in the eyes of the public.
The polarity for Capricorn is Cancer. If you look at the zodiac wheel, you’ll notice it consists of 12 signs. Each sign has a polar opposite, and that polarity must be brought into balance. Cancer is feminine water, and it’s also cardinal. Capricorn rules the career, work, and reputation, and Cancer represents the home and love. That’s a polarity we can all relate to, the balance between work and our private lives.
Capricorn’s lucky day is Saturday, and her lucky numbers are 2 and 8. I think it’s pretty cool and lucky if you’re a Capricorn born on January 2nd or January 8th, or December 28th.
Friends, Followers, and Fans, Good Morning! It’s 12:54 AM here, and I can’t believe I’m still awake. I’m your host Francis Joseph LaManna, and welcome to the December 12, 2022 Edition of Nooz Now.
Let’s get into it..
🏈NCAA- In the wild world of college football, bowl season is almost upon us. In descending order, the top 4 teams in the nation are: (4)Ohio State, (3)TCU, (2)Michigan, and (1)Georgia. Bowl season kicks off officially with the Bahamas Bowl on Friday, December 16th at 11:30 AM with Miami OH and UAB. Michigan and TCU will play in the Fiesta Bowl at 4:00 PM on December 31st. At 8:00 PM it’s the Peach Bowl, and we’ll get to see the top ranked Bulldogs play the Buckeyes. This 2022 college football season was a good one. Go Buckeyes!
🏀It looks like Russia released Brittany Griner. I had this strange feeling, and this is just my opinion, but the thought did cross my mind that Griner’s arrest had nothing to do with weed. What if Russia got tired of the United States giving money and guns to Ukraine, and Russia decided to grab Griner as a prisoner of war? Probably not, but you never know. I noticed that anyone who has something negative to say about Griner’s release is either being called a racist or a republican. From what I’ve seen, none of it has to do with race. Some people wanted to know why there wasn’t the same push or urgency to bring home members of our military who were in the same situation. Others wanted to know why so many American citizens are not only in jail, but serving unusually long sentences for marijuana related offenses. I encourage everyone to keep asking questions and continue calling out the injustices when you see them. Anytime you make a valid point or speak the truth, you will without a doubt be verbally attacked and insulted. Our government is pushing the legalization of marijuana, but someone forgot to tell the cops.
🏛Karen Bass was just sworn in as the mayor of Los Angeles. She’s a former Democratic congresswoman and speaker of the California State Assembly. I guess it was important for The Week dot com to tell the world she was black, and the second black person to hold the position. Hey World! I just want to let you all know…she’s black! And not only that, but we’re keeping track. She’s the second black! Speaking of politics, I guess Donald Trump is running for president again in 2024. He’s white. In case you didn’t know, he’s white.
👏How about Florida’s Governor, Ron DeSantis? He was a finalist for Time’s 2022 Person of the Year. That’s awesome and well deserved. That man battles a corrupt system, and this new fascist takeover between wealthy government officials and corporations. He continues to carry out the will of the Floridians and there should never be a problem with that. I just read an article about a man named Kent Stermon. Stermon, who was influential within the republican party, and a big time donor and ally to Ron DeSantis, was found dead. Initial reports say suicide, but that’s under investigation.
🌔Tonight’s moon will be lit at 85% and in the astrological sign Leo. There’s a new moon coming up in Capricorn on December 23rd, and that new moon cycle will carry us through the New Year.
🌞Currently, the sun is on the 20th degree of Sagittarius.
So, it’s not a secret that were in the season of the Archer. Astrologically, the Sun reached the 8th degree of Sagittarius today. Happy Birthday to everyone born with their natal sun in Sagittarius!
Something special is going today, however, astronomically, the Sun transits 13 constellations throughout the year, and today, 11/30, is the first day of constellation Ophiuchus. The Sun will transit this constellation for eighteen days between 11/30 and 12/16. If you were born between those dates, you were born under the constellation Ophiuchus, The Serpent Bearer.
Because Ophiuchus is not a zodiac sign officially, it doesn’t have a quality or an element, but it’s special in it’s own right.
I hope you’re doing well, and capitalizing on Pluto’s assistance with Venus and the Sun (Post: Pluto Creates Ideal Future..). Pluto is an outer planet that ultimately has the power to affect groups on a generational level, but don’t underestimate Pluto’s ability to shape the lives of individuals in the short term. Think about it like this; The way your life is now in 2022 will be completely different from what it will be like in 2050, but it’s the events and experiences that happen along the way that create that future change. You don’t wake up 30 years from and life is different. That’s why it’s important to make the the most out of each and every day!
The Moon tonight will be full and she’ll be in the astrological sign of Taurus. This a time of culmination, which began at the October 25th new moon in Scorpio. That day was awesome. If you remember, the moon was new and the sun was just beginning his transit through Scorpio.
Right now, the 4th House Moon is pulling back hard against the oppositional forces of the Sun, Mercury, and Venus in the 10th House, which is causing an issue right now between our careers and public image, and our lives at home. The Moon is trying so hard to get our attention refocused on matters that are near and dear to us and close to the heart over our pursuits for money and fame, and she’s not alone.
The amazing thing about this alignment is the Moon’s conjunction to Uranus, the planet or originality and sudden awakenings. Some how some way something at home is going to happen that forces us to stop and consider what the Moons is trying to tell us.
There’s nothing pretty about bulls, well, on the outside. They’re intimidating hairy beasts with big horns, but don’t judge a book by it’s cover. The bull is territorial and protective of what he loves. He’s warm and comforting. Astrologically, Taurus is an earth sign ruled by Venus.
Under the full moon this evening, think about the value you place on material possessions and the things that appeal to your senses. In our pursuit for money and power we sometimes lose sight of what matters most to us.
Good evening. Here on the east coast of the United States it’s 8:32 PM. It’s dark outside, warm with a breeze, and the ground is covered with leaves.
It’s romantic, it’s spiritual, and it’s a sacred time of the year.
The astrological chart of the moment is showing Venus in a conjunction (4 degrees) with the Sun in Scorpio in the 5th House. Venus and the Sun are in trine with Pluto in Capricorn in the 8th House.
This is good on so many levels.
In the 8th House, we see issues concerning death and rebirth, regeneration, legacies and wills, and other peoples money and property.
In astrology, Pluto is known as the eliminator. He gets rid of anything and everything that no longer serves a purpose. Pluto is all about regeneration, he destroys in order to build back better and stronger. Pluto is also known as the detective. He likes to dig for truth and expose it for the world to see, and again, he does this for regeneration. If the truth will set us free, Pluto is going to find it and free us. He wants to destroy anything that’s holding us back.
The negative side of Pluto manifests in the form of wars, dictatorships, murder, and riots. He’s stirring up the pot. On the positive side, Pluto has the power to help us reach the highest levels and achieve major success.
Pluto’s trine to the Sun and Venus in the 5th House tells us what his purpose is here. The 5th House is about short term pleasure, and it involves art, things we pursue for the love of it, sex, drugs, and having children.
The Sun represents will power and life force, and Venus represents love and beauty. Scorpio, which is the 5th House here, is a very passionate and imaginative sign. Scorpio is emotional and intense. It’s about desire, and it’s governs both male and female genitalia.
What are you looking for? Fun? Pleasure? What you’re most passionate about?
In the 5th House, the Sun and Venus in Scorpio can lead us to the deepest darkest forms of pleasure and passion at a level most would consider forbidden or freak-like. Think about it. The life force (Sun) is combining with love (Venus) in Scorpio. It’s passionate lusty desires that touch the heart. It’s that sex that’s so dirty but feels so good. 😍
Pluto is going to eliminate anything in the 8th House that’s preventing pleasure in the 5th. In Capricorn, we see the method behind his madness. He’s not jumping right in. No way. He sees the sign, and he knows he’s dealing with complicated issues. Capricorn is going to help him approach his work step by step and little at a time.
Ground yourself. Take your time, be persistent and consistent, and the possibility to clear up an otherwise confusing 8th House will be possible. The result of all this will be a clear path for fun, pleasure, and pursuits of love.
And hopefully, when the dust settles, you’ll rise up with an awakened awareness knowing the truth about your real passions in life.
Death and rebirth aren’t always literally about dying and coming back to life, it could be, but symbolically, they represent endings and new beginnings, and that’s what this is about.
What you can expect based on the planets, signs, and houses that are involved here is definitely and ending to something. Possibly life, but hopefully not. It could be relationships, marriages, jobs, surgeries, and anything that ties you or bounds you to the other.
Weather they’re ultimately good or bad for us, endings are usually hard to deal with. We put time and effort in, and we get attached for whatever reasons. Sometimes, endings leave us in pain emotionally, physically, and mentally, but all that’s temporary and not to sound cold, but it’s apart of life.
When that storm ends and the water recedes, the new beginning will be one of gold. You will finally be free! The door will open for whatever you find pleasure in, and even though that’s only a small part of what’s in store, enjoy yourself.
In the long term (because the 5th House is opposite the 11th) there’s a rare opportunity here for you to live the life you were finally meant to live. It can be a life filled with love and beauty and passionate pursuits that satisfy your heart’s every desire.
For the rest of this weekend and the next two weeks, I want you to approach people and situations in a grounded, persistent, and consistent way. Remember, Pluto must clear the way first by resolving 8th House matters, and there’s no indication that Pluto’s negative side will manifest in your personal life, however, Pluto has tremendous power that can and will swing in the necessary direction.
Look for the truth in all matters, and investigate. You will have to go after what you want, but the luck of the trine is your side. By the 24th of November, the true meaning of Thanksgiving will be waiting for you at the table.
When it comes to the mind in astrology, we think of the air signs; Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius. Of course, and why shouldn’t we? Air equals intellect.
Let’s go a little deeper though. From a psychological perspective, the subconscious mind or the unconscious is the part of the mind that’s not of focal awareness. If the mind was represented by an iceberg and split into two levels (like it is on Wikipedia) with one portion sitting below the water and the other portion above the water, the subconscious makes up the 90% portion below the water.
That’s a large portion of our mind operating outside of consciousness! The portion above the water, which is 10% of the iceberg, represents our fully aware, critically thinking, high-functioning everyday mind.
[After looking at the iceberg in this context, I couldn’t help but think. I always say and believed the answers we seek concerning out past could very well be located beneath the frozen ice in the Antarctic, but perhaps, they’re not buried under the ice. What if our memories have been frozen in time? What if when the ice melts eventually, the humans on earth will have a natural enlightenment, and all those questions we have will be answered naturally? In due time of course.]
So, our subconscious mind in astrology is represented by the Moon, and if the Moon is involved then we know Cancer has to be also somehow because the Moon rules Cancer, and the 4th House must be involved as well because the Moon and Cancer both live there.
The high-functioning conscious part of our mind has always been represented by the planet Mercury. Mercury rules both Gemini and Virgo, and the 3rd and 6th houses. Mercury was and is known as the Messenger God, and Mercury represents communication and commerce amongst other things.
Mercury is fast in its orbit and never exceeds more than 28 degrees from the Sun-that’s where we get our high-function and focus from.
Since the ancient times Mercury has been known to man, but in 1781 man made another discovery. Uranus! Uranus is the higher octave of Mercury, which means it operates at higher levels and from metaphysical perspective, in other dimensions.
Uranus is the genius of the Zodiac, and the planet that represents Astrology. He was the original sky God, and God of the Universe. Today, we know Uranus rules Aquarius in the 11th House.
Isn’t it interesting how this all works? Because Uranus was discovered just after the American Revolution, (1776) he represents electricity, and free thinking. Uranus is the planet of change and originality, and it symbolizes the element of surprise in our lives. It awakens and revolutionizes. Uranus represent that sudden flash of genius thought.
As time has moved forward from the days when humans were consciously aware of only Mercury, you could say our minds have changed and evolved as well. Well, the conscious portion anyway. It’s unbelievably interesting to see how the powers and characteristics of the heavenly bodies coincide with what’s being done here on earth.
As for the subconscious, I assume it will just keep taking inventory and jotting notes for us to explore at a later date, or maybe, when the ice melts and joins the rest of the sea.
Don’t you think it’s time that we had a subconscious upgrade?
I think it was Edgar Cayce that referred to the subconscious as a filing cabinet in which all information gets stored, and the funny thing is that we aren’t even aware of 99% of the stuff.
I proposed the Antarctic theory earlier in this article, but there’s something else, and in the process of explaining it, I’ll demonstrate how Uranus works.
Every time I hear the number 300, I think about the scene in the movie, 300 where the Spartans are overwhelmed and outnumbered by their opponent during a battle so they utilize a narrow entrance between two mountains as their front line for fighting. They chose it because their opponents could only enter a few men at a time, which solved Sparta’s problem of being outnumbered 10 to 1, or whatever the ratio was.
300, the number, and the funnel is what I take from this. The funnel because I imagine an upgrade to the subconscious would be “funnel-like.” Tons of information and memories in the beginning that slowly gets narrowed and more specific until we have exactly what we must retain.
When the year 2076 arrives it will be America’s 300-year anniversary! That’s right, 300 years since claiming our independence in 1776. Do you know what else happens in 2076? Sedna will reach its closest distance or point to our sun, which is called a perihelion.
I believe Sedna is a planet, even though astronomers will probably settle on dwarf planet, but when Sedna reaches its perihelion, it will do so outside the orbit of Pluto. When Sedna reaches its aphelion, which is its furthest distance from our sun, it goes all the way out, way past Neptune, and touches a place called the Oort Cloud.
Astronomers refer to that area in deep space past the orbits of Neptune and Pluto as a dark frozen sea. A dark frozen sea like Antarctica? Exactly.
So, here comes planet Sedna in its orbit, a goddess of the sea known as the Mother or Mistress of the Sea according to the Inuit mythology and takes on the form of a mermaid. Could this be the divine feminine we hear so much about the suppression of? Maybe, because when Sedna reaches her perihelion in 2076, it will be her first time back there since 9,386 B.C. or 11,408 years ago since her orbit takes 11,408 years!
If the feminine Moon represents the 90% of our subconscious that’s below the water, then Sedna must be the opposite tip of the iceberg as far as the subconscious is concerned. Who knows what Sedna will bring with her, and how we’ll be affected here on earth, but we’ll find out in 54 years.
Good morning everyone, today is Sunday, October 23rd, and at 9:50 AM (eastern time) the Sun and Venus entered Scorpio together in the 11th House.
Sun conjunct Venus 0 degrees Scorpio/11th House
The 11th House, which is the home of Uranus and Aquarius, represents our hopes and wishes for the future. The 11th House is also the house of friendships and dreams and goals that are long-term, idealism, and vision.
Traditionally, Scorpio rules the 8th House, The house of death and regeneration, but this morning we found Scorpio occupying the 11th House.
Before I go any further, I would like to share a story about a friend of mine who was in surgery last week to have cancer removed. So far so good, she is in recovery, and waiting for further information. I couldn’t think of a better example of what’s going on right now astrologically with our current alignment between the Sun and Venus in Scorpio.
Because Scorpio rules the 8th House, but was in the 11th House this morning, this represents several things correlating to my friends situation. It’s a reminder of the harsh reality of life, which is that tomorrow is never guaranteed, and it reminds us that we have to put that harsh reality aside and continue living a fulfilling life of good quality. It reminds us that we need to visualize an ideal future for ourselves and plan for it.
The timing for her couldn’t be any better. The Sun is the life force and will of the zodiac, and Venus is the Goddess of love and beauty, who in Sumerian mythology was known as Inanna. Inanna was the Goddess of love, war, fertility, beauty, sex, divine justice. and political power.
I can’t even begin to believe this as Scorpio rules human reproductive organs, which is exactly the part of her body affected. In her birth chart, she has Chiron on the 27th degree of Taurus in the 8th House, and her natal Chiron is in trine with both her natal Sun and Venus. She has Libra rising with a 12th House Sun, and Jupiter is in Scorpio, the sign that occupies the majority of the 11th House. Jupiter is the most benevolent force and he bestows us with good luck, fortune, and expansion.
Last night I burned a candle for her and continue to pray for her recovery. 💕💕🙏
So, this morning…
Together, the Sun and Venus are holding hands as they enter Scorpio. Scorpio is a feminine water sign that’s fixed in quality. The conjunction is powerful, it’s a combination of life force, the will to live, and love in a future house. I can’t help but think of Jesus in this situation, because it was Jesus (the Sun/Son) who was said to be vibrating at the highest frequency level, which is pure love (Venus), and by doing so, was able to conquer death.
We must cast the inevitable aside and remember that life can be full of great things if we’re loving and maintain the will to live. Scorpio (reproduction/sex organs) in the 11th House, reminds us that although the act of sex is highly pleasurable, the ability to have children is one of our greatest gifts. Our children are the future, and the future we visualize for ourselves is one that not only includes them, but it’s one they’ll be carrying forward.
So, as the Sun enters Scorpio and Scorpio season commences, he does so with the Goddess of love by his side.
Both are in a stressful square with Pluto in Capricorn in the 2nd House.
What’s going on here?
Pluto is the planet of regeneration, he looks to eliminate anything and everything that’s no longer useful or preventing growth so we can have a fresh start.
The 2nd House deals with possessions, and Capricorn is reserved, prudent, and patient, and uses cunning instead of force. Capricorn is persistent and determined.
Pluto is creating tension between the Sun and Venus in the 11th House, because he wants a bright future for them. As we move forward with love and the will to live, the removal of anything that doesn’t support that ideal must go.
Sometimes we don’t have a choice, and Pluto shows no mercy when it comes to regeneration.
As we deal with the power of Pluto in the 2nd House, we are to do so with the qualities and characteristics of Capricorn; patient, cunning instead of force, and we must be determined and persistent.
When it comes to the use of intellect over force, we are blessed with a Grand Air Trine between Mars in Gemini, Mercury in Libra, and Saturn in Aquarius.
At the end of the day, we are not to worry. Pluto is tugging at life and love, but Pluto’s trine with Uranus in the 6th House of health and service reinforces that goodness and favorable outcomes are maintained at the highest levels.
The lucky numbers for Scorpio: 2 and 4 (Tomorrow is the 24th)
Lucky Scorpio Day: Tuesday
Lucky Colors: Burgundy and Crimson (Colors of Passion)
It’s an interesting time for sure! Now before I end this, I want to remind everyone that on Tuesday, which is the luckiest day for Scorpio, we have a brand-new moon cycle beginning!
Can you believe it?!?! A new moon in Scorpio that will partially eclipse the Sun.
Symbolically, death and resurrection is what’s on the menu. The universe is giving us an opportunity to start fresh like the legendary Phoenix, or the lotus flower that blossoms into something unbelievably beautiful and perfect after coming up through the harshest conditions.
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday, and happy birthday to all the Scorpios out there!
I was a huge fan of hip hop during middle and high school. I loved it, and my friends and I used to freestyle while we were hanging out. We had a lot of good times and lots of good memories. Then, for some reason I stopped listening to it.
Years went by. I don’t know what it is, maybe it has to do with being young and what I was doing at the time.
Anyway, that’s another story for another time. I was driving to work a while ago and Dior came on the radio, and for the first time in a long time, I had an interest in hip hop again.
Then, he was murdered. I was shocked, twenty years old with his whole life ahead of him. At the time I didn’t know much about him or the details surrounding his murder, but for some reason, both have been weighing heavy on my mind the last two days.
February 19, 2023, it will be three years since the death of Bashar Barakah Jackson, AKA, Pop Smoke, so at this point, as 2022 comes to a close and the waning gibbous moon winds down in Gemini, the planet communication, I guess the Universe wanted to share some things with me during this time of closure.
Yesterday, I did a little research to get some information, but I couldn’t help it, I felt the push to research yesterday, and again tonight to write this before bed.
And of course all the synchronicities began. I was shown several things in the astrological event chart of the moment.
Before I get into that, I was looking at the chart and I said to myself, “this looks familiar.” In a way it was similar to chart I just looked at for the Romania reading with Capricorn rising on the ascendant.
Okay..
Los Angeles, California 4:00 AM, Wednesday, February 19, 2020.
Mars in the 12th house: You keep your deep and secret feelings hidden from the world; strong intuitive powers. Good: Imaginative Bad: danger from secret enemies.
The 12th house is the most mystical of all houses, and it’s known as The House of Secrets and The House of Karma. This is the house where the energy manifests into disappointments, accidents, trouble, and self-defeat. This is known as the house of karma because this where we’re rewarded or punished for our deeds.
Also in the 12th House was Pallas Athena. Pallas, for those who aren’t familiar, is an asteroid, but asteroids are a big part of my personal method for analyzing charts.
Pallas Athena was an ancient Greek Goddess associated with war, wisdom, and handicraft. She is the protectress of city states and is usually seen holding a spear and wearing a helmet. She was also known as a warrior goddess who led soldiers into battle, and the Parthenon was dedicated to her.
So, in the 12th House, we had Mars alerting us to danger from secret hidden enemies, and Pallas, the Goddess of war.
Pallas was one of 12 Olympians, and Pop’s Air B&B was in the Mount Olympus section of Hollywood Hills.
Interesting, and before doing any further reading about the murder incident, I said to myself, “there must be a female involved in this.”
I said that after seeing Pallas in the 12th and Vesta in the 4th, I had a hunch, and it was true.
The 4th House is what I was shown next. The 4th House is the house of home. It also represents the mother and the deepest most private place we retreat to when we mediate or pray.
I saw Vesta in the 4th, the Goddess of Hearth and home, and I saw Uranus. Uranus is the unpredictable revolutionary freedom fighter. Uranus provides flashes of insight, and it awakens us for change. What’s unique about Uranus is that he doesn’t care what the awakening causes because his job is to keep things moving on the right path. We may perceive Uranus to be good or bad, but according to him, his will must be done. Whatever needs to happen for the future and for progression, that’s Uranus.
Whenever I’m looking at a chart for a murder I always look to see what Pluto is doing, and of course, Pluto was in a very stressful aspect with Uranus. The square between Uranus and Pluto is known to cause dramatic upheaval.
Now don’t get me wrong, Pluto is not all bad. When the energy of Pluto is positive we see people reaching the highest heights in business and finding great success. Pluto is also responsible for that deep digging of truth and facts. He likes to bring whatever is hidden to surface. When Pluto is in poor aspect or expressed negatively we get the other extreme, murder, riots, wars, and upheaval.
In this chart, unfortunately, Pluto’s aspect to Uranus was adverse and we saw the negative side of both Pluto and Uranus manifest negatively. It was Pluto in the first house in Capricorn (the house of self and Capricorn the sign of career and public standing) squared Uranus in the 4th House in Taurus. Taurus rules the second house, which is the house of possessions. The second house is about what we own and what we value. Money also associated with the second house and Taurus.
So, that square between Pluto and Uranus pretty much told us the story and what was involved. Home, possessions (handbags purse money watch), career, public standing, the self, the possibility of upheaval, conflict, and awakening. In hindsight, this is spot on accurate. Mars told us the threat of secret enemies was present, and Pallas prepared us for the possibility of war.
The last thing I was shown was the picture below.

I began writing this article at 11:33. The address number of place where the murder occurred was 2033. In numerology, we don’t use 0 because it’s a place holder, but from the time I started writing, which was 11:33, 1+1=2. So it’s 233 (11:33) and 233 (2033). Pop Smoke was 20.
If you look at the writing on the right side of the picture several words should stick out;
Dawn (the murder took place at dawn between 4 and 4:30 AM)
Hercules was the street name
Remains as physical residue on the floor He was found laying on the floor after being shot.
Roses Amelia Rose was the girl he apparently met that night who was said to be laying in his bed at the time of the break in.
Air He was staying at an Air B&B.
This was so sad, and Pop smoke died so young at the age of 20. God has shown me many things tonight concerning this incident, which I understood to be about Revelation and closure. With this picture he was showing and telling me that Pop Smoke was a good person with an incorruptible spirit. Usually when young men and woman die early we believe they’ve fulfilled their purpose here and it’s time for them to move on.
From what I’ve been studying about life after death and resurrection, this image was to verify the soul or divine essence of Bashar Barakah Jackson has risen and returned home to rest in the light of the divine creator we call God. He was not lost or wandering in darkness, he came here with a purpose and his purpose was complete.
After the picture, I turned the lights down, lit a candle, and went into a mediation. During the mediation I was told the girl knew the driver and that rang true.
And there it is. This overwhelming interest and push to investigate and write about Pop Smoke over the last two days is complete and I can rest.
In closing, I tell everyone all the time. The internet is not safe. You never know who your talking to. Be careful what you post and be careful who you surround yourself with. Unfortunately, some things are unpreventable, but we can do our best to avoid a lot if we pay attention and act with common sense.
