Today is a very special day; it’s the 63rd Birthday of rock singer/poet, Jim Morrison, also known as “The Lizard King”.
James Douglas Morrison was born December 8th, 1943 and died on July 3, 1971, at the age of 27. (See my Podcast of 11-27-06 for more info).
Jim holds a very special place in modern music history for being one of the earliest proponents of Shamanism in rock music. He was fascinated by the ways of Native American culture, and strove to reconnect his spirit to the Earth by using his music and lyrics ritualistically, with great success.
Morrison was also a gifted poet achieving widespread critical acclaim for his written works. He was admittedly inspired by the great child poet, Arthur Rimbaud, whom he championed as a personal poetic muse.

On November 24th, 2006 the planet Jupiter moved into the Fire Sign of Sagittarius, where it will stay until December 18th, 2007.
Jupiter is the largest planet in our Solar System, and astrologically rules the idea of Expansion, Transformation, and Adventure. So, it stands to reason that when Jupiter is transiting his own astrological home turf of Sagittarius he’ll tend to kick all normal boundaries to the curb!
Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius, occupies the 9th House of the Zodiac, the placement of Foreign Travel, Languages, Philosophy and Higher Knowledge. In light of that fact, Jupiter in Sagittarius will tend to intensify the idea of Freedom in every way, shape and form.

As the current year, 2006 comes to a close, it’s time to start meditating on what you’d like to achieve, and how the upcoming planetary alignments will hinder or help you.
The most important planetary movements to consider are the following: Times of the year when Mercury will be in Retrograde motion; the progression of Saturn, (the planet of Karma); the progression of Pluto, (the planet of Transformation); and finally the yearly Lunar and Solar Eclipses (their houses and degrees).

Today I’m celebrating the 59th Re-birthday of Edward Alexander Crowley, more commonly known as Aleister Crowley. What is a “re-birthday” you may ask. It’s what I like to call the anniversary of someone’s physical death.
The very fact that you’re now reading this blog is due to the impact of Aleister’s writings on Magick and Metaphysics, the greatest of which is his channeled masterwork, The Book of the Law. Crowley was the man truly responsible for awakening society to the spiritual New Age we have only recently entered.
English-born, Crowley was born on October 12th, 1875 in England, and died on December 1st, 1947 — 59 years ago, today.
Take a moment of your day to learn more about this remarkable man, who lived and breathed Magick. Read the poem Crowley wrote, Hymn to Pan, which was read at his Greater Feast and Funeral.
Crowley’s influence on my life has been enormous. My natural psychic gifts have been strengthened by reading his works, and putting his developmental exercises and discipline into action. Any of my psychic friends and clients who have ever received help from me have Aleister to thank.
I will continue to post items about Crowley on my blog, and I urge you to take the time to read a few of his works. I’m sure you will benefit by the powerful concepts contained in the many books he wrote.
And as Crowley and his merry band of Thelemites are known to say: “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law; Love is the Law, Love under will!”

Just a note to thank all of my family, friends, students and clients — new and old, who’ve made my life a real joy this past year. I feel a few people need to be singled out for special thanks for their friendship and support: “B”, for being the greatest … thanks for making my life a true magickal adventure; the Great Laurencio (aka Larry Pines) for sharing his amazing Astrological brilliance with me; my Dad, who is one of the most incredible mental Magicians alive; Jeremy who proves that Magickal thinking really works; and my coven of sisters who conjure the Moon with me. Lastly, and most importantly, thanks to my Angel who guides and protects me with love and care.
