Belle Bart, not the Borscht Belt comedienne Belle Barth, who is the predominant search item when looking for the astrologer, is number 69 on the Jones hit parade. He peppers his 1000 nativities with astrologers and esotericists for as Kent McClung of the Hyperion symbols, said when I mentioned this, “Who else would remember them?” Well the late Donna Cunningham, herself an astrologer,did. She had a website dedicated to them, but it ended with her. The present cycle, ruled by the planet Mars, remains in force until the year 1944. We can not, therefore, hope for an entirely peaceful response…

Noel Tyl died on his birthday, December 31st. He was a towering figure in modern astrology and many call him their mentor having taken his Masterworks DVD set and learnt the craft from a grand master. He was born in West Chester, Pennsylvania, an affluent suburb of Philadelphia, and started out as an operatic bass-baritone. Tyl switched gears somewhere along the way, perhaps after meeting the astrologer cum musician Rudhyar, and became the foremost Jungian astrologer in the world, picking up the baton from Jones and Rudhyar. His fans are legion and to be honest, we’ve never heard a bad…

Uncategorized#J06 When was Evangeline Smith Adams born?
Having just finished Karen Christino’s biography on “Eva Adams” one can say the controversy of Adam’s birthdate is barely settled. Christino says Evangeline, a popular name at the time, was born to the poor side of the Adams family on Pavonia Avenue, right next to Journal Square (where the PATH station is these days) Jersey City, New Jersey February 8, 1868 at 8:36 am. Marc Jones has the same time, and perhaps this is what Christino used (she does not specify in her book.) Astrotheme is six minutes earlier at 8:30 am. Christino mentions a lot of things that are…

She first married fellow Christian evangelist British Walter Evans but this union ended in divorce as Bailey’s occult philosophy developed.

The time and place comes from Dr. Broughton’s own Elements of Astrology. It was self-published in 1898 from his home at 68 South Washington Square, Greenwich Village, New York. This is now part of the ever expanding New York University campus. Dr. Luke Dennis Broughton (1828 – 1899) was born on April 20, 1828 at 10 AM in Leeds, Yorkshire, England. His father taught him, and his brother astrology. He recounts how the family minister argued with them when the father died of the evils therein. That did not deter either of the Broughton boys from the hobby, and while he was…

Q: Christeen Skinner, who I interviewed a little while ago, mentioned that we don’t have three-dimensional software; saying architects have it, so that if they’re designing a building, they can see the building that they’re working on. Maybe–taking up what you’re talking about – we need software that shows us an expanse in time…
