Paris Jackson’s name turned up on social media last month when TMZ reported that she’d allegedly made a suicide attempt back in February. She vehemently denied this, but it’s not the first time she’s been in similar circumstances. Can astrology confirm or deny a rumor such as this? Normal people don’t understand depression, let alone […]

Kala Sarpa: the astronomical rationale for “yoga”
March 1st, 2019 · 5 Comments · Astrology, Instruction, Science
As I discussed in last month’s article, one of the great uncertainties among devotees of jyotisha is whether Kala Sarpa is a yoga or a dosha. The existential question is: does it promise success or threaten destruction? As I explained in that article, there are multiple consequences when the chart is split in two by […]
Kala Sarpa: the astronomical rationale for “dosha”
February 1st, 2019 · 2 Comments · Astrology, Instruction, Science
At the core of the mystique surrounding Kala Sarpa is the existential question: is it a yoga, or is it a dosha? Does it promise success or threaten destruction? That question can only be answered via yoga vichara, the careful analysis of a configuration in order to determine its nature, its strength, and its ultimate […]

Kala Sarpa: everything you wanted to know but were afraid to ask

Ted Bundy, criminal chameleon
July 4th, 2018 · No Comments · Astrology, Crime
The weird thing about Ted Bundy, people later reflected, was that he never looked the same from one photograph to another. Even in person, he had the ability to metamorphose, with a glance or a turn of his head, from someone of charming intelligence to one of cunning violence. Criminal investigators later attributed his chameleon-like […]

Sean Hannity, “opinion journalist”
May 2nd, 2018 · 3 Comments · Astrology, celebrity
Many serpents are immune to the venom of their own species. Perhaps this explains the cozy relationship between two current examples of the Kala Sarpa pattern – president Donald Trump and “opinion journalist” Sean Hannity. Snakes also have forked tongues, lurk in dark places, and are noted for their peculiar mating habits, wherein they engage […]

Kala Sarpa Yoga
April 2nd, 2017 · 6 Comments · Astrology, Instruction
Kala Sarpa Yoga is not discussed in classical shastra. Rather, it arises from an oral tradition, probably with roots in South India. Some say it’s Tantrik in origin and, perhaps because of that, is subject to significant differences in interpretation. Some describe Kala Sarpa as a major flaw in a birth chart, a dosha which foretells loss […]

Donald Trump: the man who would be kingmaker Donald Trump is like an anteater whose tongue is capable of extending so deep into the American psyche that it can stir up entire nests of cherished beliefs, fantasies and phobias.
