Today is the 50th birthday of one of my favorite artists, Kate Bush. She found fame as a teenager with her first hit, “Wuthering Heights“, in 1978 (despite never having read it at the time!) Kate’s music is a favorite backdrop for many of my pagan friends as well.

The photo I’m using for this post is one of my favorites of Kate, taken from the cover of one of her earliest biographies. I’ll be adding more links to this post soon. Until then, Happy Birthday Kate, and many happy returns.

Greetings All,

I’ve recently been warning my friends, students and clients about the upcoming Solar Eclipse coming up on Friday, August 1st, 2008. No doubt, this earthquake is just a presage of things to come. Hang on, it’s going to be a bumpy ride. Next up, Japan!

The Sun’s movement into the zodiac sign of Leo is the true beginning of Summer, at least as far as I’m concerned. Now is the time when we really feel the power of the sun’s rays, and the build-up of Summer heat. As Leo is a Fire Sign, it’s no wonder that there tends to be an increase in fires at this time of year (although I truly hope that’s not the case this year — still I know better by now!)

The Sun is the source of all life on Earth, and as such lends its intense energy to whatever zodiacal sign it happens to be passing through. The Sun rules the 5th House of the Zodiac, which is governed by the sign of Leo. The 5th House concerns the subjects of Romance, Creativity and Children, as well as Gambling and games of chance.

Those born between the dates of July 22nd through August 21st are born under the sign of Leo, whose zodiacal emblem is the lion. Thus, those who are born during this solar phase bear the “traits of the Lion” as a result. For more info on the Sun and its rulership of Leo, please visit the Voxx Magickal School site. I hope you all enjoy the Season of Fire responsibly.

Saint Angelina Jolie and her godly Pangenitor, Brad Pitt have finally brought forth their Golden Twins (a boy and a girl) into the world! The boy is named Knox Leon and the girl is named Vivienne Marcheline … lovely names.

The twins were born around 10:00 pm, in Nice, France at a local hospital. I have posted their Astrology charts (based upon their approximate birth times) View the Golden Twins Astrocharts here. What I can tell you already is that these lucky babes were born with a remarkable Grand Water Trine (18-20 Degrees of Uranus in Pisces, Moon in Scorpio and the Sun in Cancer. Simply put — wow! They will want for nothing in their lives.

Needless to say, two children have never been born with as much potential for beauty, fame and wealth since the days of ancient Egypt. Before their birth, the twins were even officially recognized by the French Government as honorable citizens of Nice, France where they were born.

For now, I’d like to send love, health and continued blessings to Angelina, Brad and their entire family.

LVX,
