HENNA AND OTHER RAMBLINGS
Charles Bukowski
by Trudy Pellegrino on 02/20/12
A favorite life teacher of mine was the poet Charles Bukowski.
A chart that was loaded with 12th house planets- shows a man who knew
renouncing this world- known to have refused to be on the Johnny Carson Show, because, those people were too into the worldy circles he had dropped out of...
lived for most of his life in dives, renting one room in flop houses, a postal worker,
someone who knew great loss in love, and suffering - an abusive father, an adolescence of acne, please,! near death....His jupiter dasha arrived to take him from an outsider to a well known gifted writer,,,
this man had a mercury in the 11th, strong in making something of his hobby, writing, that grew stronger in time....
His moon surrounded by Rahu And Saturn, shows a real leaning toward depression, and his 12th house planets in Leo- say leave me alone! I need time and space...such withdrawal tendencies with a nice big juicy jupiter, sun and venus...in comes the writing and creativity and countless romances he had to let go of as well has keep secret....the man had a full and juicy chart indeed.
Respects to this ascetic, albeit sorta toxic, drunkard and wiseman,

Astrology East is the Best!
by Trudy Pellegrino on 02/20/12
I have been introducing the fact to my western astrology friends that they have a different planetary personality than they have been led to believe ...sidereally speaking, of course. The western astro-calendar is locked into a seasonal and monthly pattern, same dates, same time of year...but the Eastern, or Indian Jyotish style of astrology is based on where the the constellation actual is- which is now back 24 degrees from the basic western system. Can you remember learning in school that the universe is expanding? Well it is so!
More to come...
