IN 2017 we were in Bristol CT for the full moon; we return this year 2026. However, as much as things change, they seem to remain the same, or so the chart says.

A short list of September birthdays from our archives.

Leo roars in on July 22nd, and a bumpy ride should be in store during his time. Things are getting done, plans are happening, and dreams are firming up but with all this work, and ostensibly all for the good of vacation, when do we have fun? Perhaps with El Nino on the horizon, that […]

What follows is the chart in Equal House format, for November 1, 2025 based from Times Square, Manhattan, New York. Water, particularly from Pisces, heavily dominates the chart. Outside of a harmonious trine to the Sun, the Moon has no other aspects. Neptune and Uranus though seem to cause some trouble, and since they aligned […]

On April 12, 1955, at Kokubunji, Tokyo, a tiny rocket called Pencil was launched horizontally. Even before and during WWII, research into rockets is said to have attained a considerable level, but most scientists destroyed their materials for fear that they would be accused of war crimes as after World War II, Japan was forbidden […]

The hit, by Muhammad Atta and gang, on the WTC officially 8:46:40 according to Columbia University’s Seismological Center located up in Morningside Heights probably about 8 miles away from the scene.

Karbala Iraq, c. 680 The Battle of Karbala 680 cemented a division that still exists between Islam’s Sunni and Shia branches. Initially, the dispute began over succession to the Caliphate of Mohammed because the Prophet did not explicitly appoint as a successor thus throwing succession into a tizzy. Ali, who was Muhammad’s son-in-law, blood cousin, […]

The header shot is of the 7th Brigade Royal Scots as it advances along the Basra-Kuwait highway.  From the US Dept of Defense.  To see more shots of this war click here. The chart is notable for only one major opposite and that is of Jupiter in Leo in the 9th House, travelling for war, […]

At 3 a.m. on the morning of October 28th, 1940, Emanuele Grazzi, the Italian ambassador to Greece, delivered an ultimatum from Benito Mussolini to Prime Minister Ioannis (John) Metaxas demanding Metaxas to allow the Italian army free passage to occupy strategic sites throughout Greece. What would Metaxas do? Metaxas was expected to quietly acquiesce like […]

The Russian-Japanese war ended with a treaty brokered by Pres. Theodore Roosevelt on September 5, 1905. The war itself was rather short, lasting from 1904 to 1905. It started when Japan acquired the Laodong Peninsula from China in their fracas, but European powers forced Japan to return it. China then leased it to Russia who […]
