astral meanders May20-26th

In General: This week Mercury squares Neptune and Jupiter. Communication may be fast and plentiful but much of it is ungrounded gossip or exaggerated fact. Mercury also sextiles Uranus in Pisces, which suggests an opportunity to look deeper into ones desires and needs and make long-term plans. The New Moon in Gemini on the 24th suggests learning and opportunities to gain knew knowledge. Just double check facts if you are unsure of the source of this new knowledge! If your birthday falls this week you can look forward to a year of growth and inner learning. On the world scene it’s likely that many facts will be exaggerated. Religious or spiritual leaders may be in the spotlight too. Locally try to avoid gossip.

Astral news: Tibetan Astrology is something ancient and yet new foer many of us. iIt si ver interesting, so I though many of you may like a useful website to follow up this informative and spiritual art. http://www.tibetan-astrology.net/
As the Introduction to this web site states: ‘ Tibetan astrology can be valuably understood through both its traditional role within Tibetan Buddhist culture, as well as its contribution towards a progressive Transpersonal Psychological approach to astrological theory and practice. The unique conceptual frameworks of Tibetan Elemental Astrology ('byung-rtsis) and Kalacakra Astrology (sKar-rtsis), are underpinned by the rich spiritual psychology of the Indo-Tibetan Tantric Buddhist world view.’

Astral Peeks:
The Arabic Parts:

The Arabic Parts have a worthy history in Astrology stretching far back into ancient times, yet they have been largely lost to modern astrologers. Personally I find them very useful and influential in the natal chart and I like to use them in my work. There are a large number of these Arabic parts, the best known today perhaps being the Part of Fortune (Part of the Moon), which has survived because it is the strongest of the parts, due to its involvement with the Sun and Moon. The Part of Fortune is not a planet but is a sensitive, calculated point in the horoscope that shows in effect where the Moon would be if you were born at Dawn.

The Part of Fortune represents that area of life where one finds happiness, prosperity and natural calm; it expresses inherent abilities that when tapped and used enable an easier flow to one’s life.
