The study of astrology is an interesting one indeed, the further you go in its examination, the more you realize how powerful the cosmos really are. Many of us believe in this or at least understand this notion, even in its most primitive form. We all have wished upon a star at one point, or gazed at the Full Moon and marveled at its magnificence. I once told a young boy when he asked me what the stars really were, that they were angels looking over us. Many parents tell their children the same thing. In a way, they are, particularly if you appreciate the Greek Mythology component of astrology. Norah Guide often gives a lot of attention to the planets and the Moon, today we are going to talk about stars. Read More »

They say there is no rest for the wicked, but that isn’t always the case. Even those with the best intentions can’t seem to cut a break once in a while. That may be the feeling for many of you just coming out from some hair raising Mercury retrograde experiences, as we prepare for another eclipse, AND a Full Moon to boot. I have been discussing some tips and tricks on getting through these periods on a day to day basis on my Tumblr blog with Norah Guide’s Daily Astrological Forecast feature.

We’ve been discussing those astrological bodies that show up in our natal charts and horoscopes, and in our solar return charts as well. While it is useful to know where the main planets lie in our charts, knowing the placement of our additional celestial bodies provides some guidance as well. You don’t NEED to know where these bodies are in your chart, but why wouldn’t you want to if you could access that additional information? It would not be any different than getting a variety of tests from the doctor. Let’s say the doctor tells you your health is excellent. Not a bad idea to take his word for it, but when you get some bloodwork that confirms that, all the better right? So studying these celestial bodies helps us tremendously in simply validating where we are headed in life. Today Norah Guide is going to discuss the role of Juno, ah, the Queen of the Goddesses.

If you have ever had your birth chart, natal chart, or solar return chart calculated for you, you probably were a little overwhelmed by the amount of information you received. You likely recognized much of it, but not all of it, and maybe not even most of it. The more detailed your chart, the more information you have in front of you in terms of why things are the way they are in your life now, in the past, as well as a pretty good outlook on what is in store for you in the future. One complex detail many people see in their natal chart is the mention of “Vesta”. Where is Vesta located in your chart? The answer is not going to make or break your life, but it will pin point some very interesting things about you. When I found out my Vesta was in Virgo, I kind of went Ah Hah! THAT explains a LOT. Let Norah Guide help you reach this point of enlightenment as well. Read More »
