K.N. Rao: best astrologer in the world today!  What is it about Sri K.N. Rao that mystified me? as it mystifies all those who come into his grace. My obsession regarding K.N. Rao started back in 2004 when I mentioned his name to my uncle who is a practicing astrologer himself for 35 years. He was shocked to learn that I knew about K.N. Rao. He asked me "How in the world do you know about him?", I told him I searched online for Vedic Astrology and his mention was everywhere. My uncle has known about Mr. Rao and B.V. Raman for ages, but it took me 12 years to get to the point where I truly understood the man behind the veil of jyotish. To me he is not just a jyotish, but a mystical saint who has natural intuition and divine grace of looking into the future. There is something about his articulate speech, words, and the way he present astrology. He captures your soul just in his words. I have seen his interview with Vaughn Paul Manley on Youtube redundantly, and will ke...

The Conjunction:  Planets and points that form a conjunction are energies that are united. They are blended; therefore, they act together. The closer they are to conjunction, the more  subjective  these combined energies are. They don't stand alone, and they have a difficult time truly acknowledging each other as distinct or separate. In effect, conjunctions can be a  blind spot . When the Sun is in close conjunction to Neptune, for example, others may note the distinction, but it can be hard for the native to distinguish between their sense of individuality and their spiritual, evasive, or roundabout nature. The native may just assume, naturally, that others are much the same way.  The Sextile:  The sextile is often read quite like a trine, although there is a distinction between the two aspects. Sextiles, like trines, point to some talent and ease. However, sextiles have a little more "oomph" to them. While trines come so naturally to people that...

2014 Astro-Note:   Venus is in Aries a short blast from May 2nd to the 28th, 2014.  Revive passion with an old flame, or breathe life into your steady thing.  This could be the start of something wonderful. Venus Aries Motif Open to the moment, with the wisdom of the Fool. The Goddess Brigid, and fires of smithcraft.  When things heat up, new shapes are possible. Starting a whole new creative endeavor. Teasing each other out of stagnation. Action-adventures, overcoming with courage. Foolish Lovers Aries is a fool that rushes in.  So Venus in this brave sign inspires even shy lovers to action.  Is there someone you've been worshiping from afar?  When Venus is in Aries, the love mood favors bold action, and taking chances. What's the worst thing that can happen?  I love that song "Everybody Plays the Fool" that 1972 song by the Main Ingredient (and later recorded by Aaron Neville).  We all play the Fool sometimes...

By Elissa Heyman The 2014 Zodiac Pictograph: Like last year, focus on how to harmonize with the opportunities for each sign, and how to stay centered. Last year was a very mixed and intense year for many, although I surely wrote some sunny, sugar-coated horoscopes for people. Well, these 2014 horoscopes are also pretty sunny, but in this plucky but extreme year, people are in kind of an "up" place about themselves. 2014 Horoscopes for the Astrological Signs: Read your Sun Moon and Rising signs Aries: You have more energy this year, come back to your center, have more primordial urges, and generally feel it to be a freeing year. You're very, very happy about feeling like you're in a place creatively and in terms of location that you belong. You see the potential for a revival of business - you see how you can be successful in new ways, and ways that are true to you now. Taurus: You're strongly more ambitious, perhaps with a new idea of ...

ARIES   (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20) Any home based project or festivity will be much bigger, bolder and unwieldy than you expect. That is partially because you have such big plans, Aries. My advice is to tailor your expectations, time, ability and money. Once you have everything in a manageable size, go for the gusto and party until the cows come home. Or at least until your guest go home. TAURUS   (APRIL 21 - MAY 21) You have big ideas, Taurus. Give some of them room to grow and roam. This week you may get unexpected help from an unexpected source that upends your landscape and creates new paths for your big move. Weigh all advice and be choosy about which one you follow. Use a trusted source. Get out of your comfort zone but be sure there are guard rails..   GEMINI   (MAY 22 - JUNE 21) Friends stress your budget and why not? You are ready to enjoy life and to splurge on every little thing. (No names please!) But all these little things ...

The Solar eclipse occurs April 28-29 (depending on your location) at 8 Taurus 51, a New Moon that only sextiles Neptune; everything else is outside even a generous orb, with Mercury just days past Superior Conjunction (if this were moving toward the eclipse point I would consider counting it) and Mars, though moving retrograde, outside the orb for a quincunx. That lays it all on Neptune and the Sabian for this eclipse, ‘A Fully Decorated Christmas Tree’. A Solar eclipse is when the Moon arrives at a point just right between the Earth and the Sun, so that the Moon appears to be not just conjunct the Sun, but to be aligned directly between Earth and Sun; our view of the Solar orb is blocked (occulted), at least from particular points on Earth relative to the path of the eclipse. It’s an instance, in symbolic terms, of Lunar sensibilities temporarily blocking the light of the Sun (objective consciousness) from reaching Earth. That suggests that Lunar issues for a time overwhelm Sol...

Human beings have always been curious to know their future. Whenever someone is in difficulty and cannot easily come out of it, he wants to know whether the days of his misery will come to an end at all. And if yes, then when? When one invests a great deal of time, effort or money into some project, it is natural to wonder whether that investment will bear some fruit. There have always been people around who have successfully predicted future events. Their methods have been different - some people can simply look into the future, some use tarot cards, some draw up an astrological chart which we call horoscopes, some read the lines in the palms of people. One cannot deny that future has been accurately predicted many a times and by many a people. Each successful prediction proves that it is indeed possible to correctly predict future. In the ancient times, astrologers were held to be in great esteem by the people. There was no difference between astronomers and astrologers. In ...

Note for 2014:   The eclipses of April 2014 fall at 25 Libra (April 15th) and 9 Taurus (April 28th).  The eclipses of October 2014 fall at 15 Aries (Oct 8th) and 0 Scorpio (Oct 23rd). Look on your birth chart for any direct hits to planets or significant points.  Eclipses and Trailings By looking at where the  Eclipse falls in the Houses, you get a sneak preview of what's to come (or in progress).  And it's also instructive to look at planetary contacts to the eclipse. If there's a conjunction to a natal planet (within 5 degrees), this is the  eclipse ruler. Some astrologers say the last planet aspected by the eclipse, is your main symbolic messenger. An eclipse though, isn't always dramatic or shocking. It's often a subtle, inward, and sometimes profound unfoldment, that happens over a period of time (six months is the rule). Eclipses that aspect the Sun Sun engagement with eclipses are significant miles...

Best to be topical! Thinking of Easter and the run up to it, into my head popped a rhyme I used to repeat, long ago and far way near the north-eastern coast of England: Tid, Mid, Miserai (or Misere) Carlin, Palm, and Paste egg day. Reciting it as a child, gobbledegook-wise, I didn't care what it meant, I just wanted to get at those chocolate Easter eggs! I later grasped that it had something to do with the Sundays of Lent, and customs attached.  Carlin(g)s are black peas, eaten on Passion Sunday, On Palm Sunday sometimes dried palm leaves were handed to members of church congregations, and Paste eggs (possibly a corruption of Pasch) eggs were what all the kids eagerly anticipated. As for the mysterious first line of the rhyme, there are two explanations: 'Tid' was the second Sunday in Lent, when, it seems, the Te Deum was sung/chanted in church; Mid could refer to a hymn 'Mi Deus', sung on the third Sunday of Lent; Miserai/misere might be th...
