I just sent an article in Portuguese for a Brazilian blog/website and it was a little challenging to write in my mother thong can you believe it? I think that because I've been working pretty hard on writing my assignments for the MA, and also because I've been living abroad for almost 12 years as w ...
Full Moon in Scorpio intensity
I finally managed to finish and submit my assignment for the MA and I feel happy that I can read and write about something else now. The next Full Moon will be taking place on the 18th of May at 27 degrees Scorpio, not too far from my ASC, and I think that I already feel the emotional intensity of ...
Embodying the planets
Im currently writing a research project for the MA about the outsider's perspective of astrology with a target group that came to ASHA for a training course on Holistic Education. My search for literature review on Holistic Education turned out to be quite inspiring. Im finding many of its themes r ...
Saturn-Pluto nightmares…
Yesterday I had the pleasure to watch a webinar that astrologer Lynn Bell gave on the Saturn-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn (already within orbit, will be perfecting in January 2020). She made use of some powerful photographs made by artist Nicolas Bruno (who has a natal square between Pluto and Sa ...
Explorations on what we do as astrologers
Here I am writing again, still trying to keep a flow of blog posts, but the truth is that if Im not feeling like writing I just don't. It reminds me of Billie Holiday refusing to sing in prison because she just did not feel like singing, even though everyone was begging her to do it. Not that people ...
Uranian impulses
I've been reading Liz Greene's book 'The Art of Stealing Fire' about Uranus and already had some powerful insights on the archetypal energy that the planet represents. She starts by saying that in her perspective, contrary to what we find in many astrology text books, there is nothing individual abo ...
Relationship Anarchy and the next Full Moon
Today's first quarter of the Moon (in Gemini) got me curious about the coming full Moon on 21 of March at 0 degrees Libra. If we consider the full Moon as the continuation and outcome of the New Moon, it will have something to do with the feelings of last week's Pisces New Moon, conjunct Neptune, ...
Astrology, Symbolism and Fluidity
February has been an interesting month for me so far. The latest journey (Im realising more and more that there is always a journey within a journey within a journey...), the one connected with this month's unfoldment, has been very much related with astrological work and symbolism for me. I've ha ...
Saturnian growth pos Plutonic apocalypse…
Saturn is transiting around 14 degrees Capricorn and just about to form the first of 3 or 4 exact squares to my natal Moon in Libra. I can feel this transit reflecting couple of different processes within myself. On one hand I felt the urge to communicate my need to cut down my hours at my current ...
An Astrologer’s wishes for 2019
The heat in Brazil is so strong that for most of the day I cannot do much. Sometimes it feels like my brain is melting. For the last five or six years I consciously went through a Pluto transit to my natal Moon and this is the first time that I came back since. Everything looks and feels strange an ...
