Rebirthing the Dark Feminine
(Every so often an interesting article appears derived from the study of Astrology. This article fits the mould perfectly. Although we are way past the moment in which the astrological impact that this article addresses took place, there is still great value in considering its message.
Astrology one must remember preceded Astronomy. Astrology is an ancient science with its origins in antiquity. It is very easy to dismiss this very potent mystical practice, yet to do so reveals one of two things. Either complete ignorance of the deeper aspects of the science, or a belief that astrology as such is just a “Dear Dorothy Dix” moment of complete nonsense scripted out in the dailies. If either of these become our benchmark then we lose access to a great body of wisdom.
Having said this however, not every astrologer, nor every reading has the same level of accuracy. To achieve this one needs to develop exceptional prowess in this field and through such prowess, apply the teachings and learn from the feedback of many, many clients,. Much the same way as science does when it goes about proving a theory. It test and retests until it fine tunes its understandings. Even then it may not be right, but it is probably a fair bet to say it is closer to the truth than when they started.
Enjoy and explore the teaching of astrology. I will share more on this later as we progress in our classes. Nigel)

Venus and the moon’s journey into the abyss of the sun can help us bridge the paradox of our subterranean desires into a new cycle of awareness.
This month, the lunar cycle holds the seed to this rebirth, allowing us to redefine our boundaries in new and empowering ways.
The deity that rules this area of the sky is a Naga. Nagas are venomous fire breathing snake-dragons, with dangerous split tongues. They dwell in the deepest layer of the underworld and are capable of shape shifting. They are also adepts at Tantric practices. See more…
