Greetings All,

Like the 2008 Presidential Election, the one occurring now, in 2012, is happening — yet again, with Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio! Last time, President Obama was sworn in during this tricky time period.

Not only that, but we have a devastating Solar Eclipse in Scorpio, occurring on November 13th, 2012 as well. With the intense power of Saturn in Scorpio, you can be assured that all hell is going to be breaking loose in the next few years — no matter who is elected (and I predict President Obama will be re-elected.)

Without going all “Illuminati” on your ass, I can safely say that should Mitt Romney be elected President, it will be due to another George W. Bush/Al Gore snafu. In other words, the election shows danger of being manipulated again.

The astrological good news for Obama is that on election day, there will be a Leo Moon, conjoining his Sun.

Here’s a look into my latest Thoth Tarot Divination regarding today’s election:

Barack Obama: 9 of Wands; The Tower; and the 4 of Wands.

Mitt Romney: The Star; The Low Magus; and the 5 of Wands.

This shows that Obama really has his work cut out for him, and it may appear to be a close election. The Star and Magus on Romney’s side, appear to show that the electronic machines may create errors, from which he will unfairly gain votes.

Make no mistake — should Romney win — the poor, women, children, schools, veterans, and small business owners of the United States can kiss their collective asses goodbye, as the 47% mysteriously disappear.

Remember the Mayans didn’t predict the dire consequences of this year for nothing! We need to protect ourselves from corporate vampires, and get to work for positive change. Let’s vote out the greedy, self-interested members of Senate and Congress who just block change for the common good!

God/dess bless America!

O great Poet of Magick, Ted Hughes, today I celebrate the anniversary of your birth. I thank you for your continuing inspiration every time I hold a feathered pen in my hand.

I met you two days after your physical body died. You visited me in a spirit seance. At the time, I had never even heard of you. Still, you decided to make your illustrious presence known. You sent me some remarkable poems via the Astral Plane. Of course, you being a Leo and all, you made certain there were witnesses present, so I could assure myself that our interaction was not a delusion.

A couple of years after we met on the spiritual plane, I saw a picture of you, and discovered that you had been the husband of Sylvia Plath. It was definitely you whom I had seen that fateful night. I suppose I should note that the date of our original meeting was October 31st, 1998. Hardly three days since you had passed away.

Unbeknownst to me, was your very serious knowledge and initiatic understanding of the sacred Tarot, a mutual passion we shared.

I am glad to have the ability to read your poems through the filter of Magick, knowing the depth of your words. I have been writing a book filled with the Qabalistic and Tarot symbolism found in your works, and will publish it soon. That being said, dear Ted, I wish you peace, and the knowledge that your words continue to guide myself and others, toward an understanding and appreciation of the Great Work apparent in the divinity of Nature.

Just now, a lonely dog howls as the sun sets in the West. A song I’m sure you know by heart. ~V~

Surely you have felt the energy shifting within the last few hours, as the Black Moon moved toward its new phase in Taurus.

Ordinarily, a new moon brings an invigorating feeling; However, this particular moon is fraught with tension, as it creates the astrological aspect known as a Fixed T-Square. Those born with the Sun or Moon in the fixed signs of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius will feel the brunt of this aspect, a bit more intensely.

Also, pay attention to which house you may have any of these fixed signs, as you’ll no doubt feel the heat. It’s not “bad”, just “challenging”, as I always say.

To intensify matters, Jupiter and Uranus (in Pisces) are in opposition of Saturn, currently retrograde in Virgo. These 3 planets are creating a Mutable T-Square, with Venus in Gemini. No wonder the world and everyone in it feels like we’re on a rollercoaster.

Still, it’s a New Moon, so light a green or white candle, and meditate on what you’d like to achieve in this new lunar cycle. It’s a great time to plant things as well, as the Moon in Taurus is considered one of the most fruitful times to begin projects.

If you’d like to learn more about how the New Moon in Taurus will affect you, contact me for more info.

The New Moon in Pisces will happen today at 5:35 pm PST (8:35 pm EST).

I thought I’d give you all a helpful mini-ritual to celebrate this new Lunar Phase:

Today marks what would have been Kurt Cobain’s 42nd Birthday. It’s hard to believe, but it’s almost been 15 years since Kurt died, so tragically young at the age of 27.

I’ve been working on interpreting Kurt’s Astrology Chart, delving into the mystery as to what was really behind his suicide — if in fact, it was, one. It’s definitely a bizarre chart, full of hope, promise and even offers insight into his seemingly, unavoidable crash-and-burn.

Kurt never was one to burn out OR fade away. Instead, he chose to go out like the wild human Supernova he truly was. Still, his fiery ghostlight echoes, reaching the furthermost edges of our Messyverse — reminding the most distant of aliens, that once upon a time, there lived a beautiful yellow giant star named Kurt. May his light always shine for eyes to see, even when those eyes are blind with tears.

LVX and PAX,
