Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio..October 21st.. and Intense Ouch...



Mercury is Retrograde... in Scorpio conjunct my natal Saturn which is making a return of sorts it seems. Oh, it's also getting near my Venus. Oh my...

I decided to bring this blog back or maybe go back and review it and rework it a bit. Play with it. Mercury Retrograde is a good time to replay things out in your mind and in life.

My brother spent the day the Social Security because my mother's paper work got messed up. A roof is being redone, because it was not done right. I'm going to be looking through my mother's things to decide how we take apart her condo. If that is not Mercury Retrograde leaving his calling card.. I don't know what is.

And truth is sometimes you have to look back, review, revise and then move forward in life.

So, going to use this little blog I don't think much on to record any Mercury Retrograde events in my own life and the life of the people around me.

Hey, maybe when it's over we can get those big Obamacare computer programs working and move on..

You never know...

3 Weeks and then it goes forward... wouldn't it be nice if Mercury Retrogrades were like Vegas..what happens in a Mercury Retrograde stays in a Mercury Retrograde ;)


Take care and I'll be back... because it feels right to do and I'm in the mood. Then again.. I got Pluto on my Sun and Mercury and Saturn on my Saturn and a Mercury Retrograde on my Saturn. What next? A remake of Something About Mary??

Oh..did I say that... oops... must have been the Mercury making me crazy...

Earthquakes, Hurricanes and Eclipses

Make interesting bedfellows I suppose...

Got this CNN Breaking News earlier:

CNN Breaking News to textbreakingne.
show details 2:20 AM (19 hours ago)
-- A preliminary 6.9-magnitude earthquake hit the Solomon Islands on Saturday, the U.S. Geological Survey said.


Coincidence or some Celestial Connection? Just keeping track here and you decide. I'm too busy watching Alex to decide much so just passing it along.

A very good write up on this eclipse series is on this website linked below.

As for Alex, he did pull his act together today just prior to slamming into Belize.

Of course Ghana beat the US in soccer... not sure if that is related or not ;)

Keep looking up at those clouds and those beautiful stars...

Ever notice how a hurricane looks a lot like a picture of the cosmos

Start of the 2010 Hurricane Season ... Tropical Depression 1 Forms... Astrological Chart

I have a friend named Shari who is a bit of an astrologist.

The moment any child is born she does a chart and checks the rising sign.

I called her from the hospital to tell her my youngest baby was born, the first thing she screamed in my ear was "YES!!! MOON IN CANCER!!! HE'S NOT GOING TO BE A DOUBLE LEO!!! YAYYY!"

Honest.... well her ex was a Leo and the idea of a double leo scared her to death. She likes Moon in Cancer, so she was happy beyond words. I just stared at the phone and shook my head and giggled. To know Shari is to love her.

So.............this is the chart for this Tropical Depression that was born just moments before an eclipse. Note, I did mention in an earlier post that this might happen.

Sun 4 Cancer
Moon 28 Sagittarius
Mercury 1 Cancer
Venus 13 Leo
Mars 10 Virgo
Jupiter 2 Aries
Saturn 28 Virgo
Uranus 0 Aries
Neptune 28 Aquarius
Pluto 4 Capricorn
North Node 11 Capricorn
Chiron 0 Pisces

Rising Sign 4 Capricorn


She said with Venus in Leo this storm will crave attention :)

And, will be a hard worker with Capricorn rising.

More on this tropical chart later...

Besos Bobbi and Shari sends her love...she's a Capricorn too!!

Benjamin Franklin -- Weatherman, Astrologer and Self Help Guru



In the days before people went online with pseudonyms and chatted in chat rooms or played on weather messages boards Benjamin Franklin made up the pseudonym "Poor Richard" and put out what was to be a calendar with weather predictions, celestial calculations and bits of wisdom and folly.

I'm sure if Old Ben was here today he would be a blogger or a political journalist giving Matt Drudge a run for his money.

A man ahead of his times and a man for all seasons.

He is also given credit for recording the first observance of a tropical cyclone as being one storm that traveled from one city to another as an entity, not a different storm.

This blog is going to be a whimsical look at how often astrologers are right in predictions concerning weather and chock filled with some astrological and some meteorological whimsy that would most likely make Old Ben himself smile.

Some facts on Benjamin Franklin that they don't tell you in school.

1. He was a member of a secret group of astrologers and "new age" sort of practitioners that used their organization to network for business and political purposes. In those days the study of astrology was up there with philosophy, mathematics and astronomy. From the Masons to the Junta to the Magi Society to a few less savory organizations where he simply sat in possibly for an entertaining evening of discussion.... Ben Franklin got around.

2. After trying to observe a lunar eclipse that was foiled by a tropical event that obscured the sky, Ben Franklin made an observation about the weather that is one of the first written observations of how hurricanes move that was contrary to previous beliefs.

"1743 A hurricane prevents Ben Franklin from observing a lunar eclipse in Philadelphia. When he later learns his brother in Boston experienced the storm much later, he surmises that hurricanes don't move in the direction that the winds are blowing. Also, Professor Winthrop of Harvard makes first pressure and tide observations during this hurricane."

3. Please note he was upset because he was out there trying to observe a celestial event. He was a man who watched the stars, the sky and tried to observe patterns and he published his thoughts on them much like many online bloggers and journalists.

4. Ben Franklin was a knowledge of wealth about human relations. He got around... and he obviously kissed and told. A few hundred years before the term Cougar was ever created to describe a hot, mature, sexy woman Ole Ben was offering young men the following wisdom:

I mean seriously, this was a man for all seasons who wrote the book on weather, politics and originality.



So....this blog entry is dedicated to Benjamin Franklin who was wiser on weather than many people I know and who took everything into his observations in his zest for finding the truth and gaining knowledge.

Personally, any man who understands the beauty of watching an eclipse is one sexy, old man and I think it's a shame we just picture him as that guy on the box of oatmeal or the man who stood out in the rain too long in a lightning storm.

Sounds like a storm chaser to me ;)



Keep looking up and at the satellite loops and maybe there is a connection and maybe there isn't ...
