Breaking Love’s Taboos
A reader's letter answered in Ask Moonkissd!: I have a new beau in my life, and would love to see the long-term potential for lasting love... What do you see? Me: Feb 4, 1971, 12:31 p.m. Mountain View, CA. He: June 3, 1980, 3:34 p.m. Indianapolis, IN. Signed, Amorous Aquarius Dear Amorous, Your Venus in Sagittarius is flirting with deeper, funkier relationship to love's mystery...far deeper than she could know alone. Ah, the stories she could tell if you will but let her! Your thirst for...
Madonna, Agent Provocateur
Another Leo Star from an article I wrote for Astrocenter.com! http://www.astrocenter.com/us/LeoCelebrityStars_Article.aspx Madonna: 16 August 1958 We so clearly see this Lioness’ bright energy because she’s impossible to ignore! An exhibitionist at heart, Madonna’s personal quest is to expose everything – from her nude body to her beliefs on the Kabbalah. As provocateur, Madonna has made it her business to bring sexual eroticism into the mainstream. Although she’s played the femme...
All Eyes on Halle
Another Leo Star from an article I wrote for Astrocenter.com! http://www.astrocenter.com/us/LeoCelebrityStars_Article.aspx Halle Berry: 14 August 1968 Celebrated, photographed by paparazzi for her beauty and elegance, Halle Berry emanates that “beautiful person†aura wherever she goes. Leo is a captivating Sun sign and before she pursued acting as a career Halle’s beauty captivated pageant awards. But beauty and skin color are only skin deep and Hollywood notoriously glorifies and...
The Shelf Life of Love
"_________, wilt thou have this woman/man to be thy wedded wife/husband to live together after God’s ordi nance in the Holy Estate of matrimony? Wilt thou love her/him, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others keep thee only unto her/him, so long as ye both shall live (or for the next 5 or 10 years)? ("I will") Mars enters Gemini on Monday who immediately tussles with Venus, who is about to retrograde backward from Virgo into Leo on Wednesday. Seems to me, it's as good a time as...
I’ll Take Manhattan
A reader's letter answered from Ask Moonkissd!: Dear Moonkissd, My birth info is March 6, 1952 at 10:25 PM in Manhattan, NY. How do I 'flow' with Sept 22, 1945 in Vallejo, CA? Signed, Manhattan Dear Manhattan, You send out powerful attractor beams, Ms. Manhattan. With Mars in Scorpio on your Ascendant, make that a double. You walk into a room and send out sexy sonar signals to all the men within your range and beyond. They don't even know you're at the end of the bar...a force of nature more...
Bighearted Sandra
Another Leo Star from an article I wrote for Astrocenter.com! http://www.astrocenter.com/us/LeoCelebrityStars_Article.aspx Sandra Bullock: 26 July 1964 One of the first things you notice about the woman behind the role is her infectious playfulness. Sandra Bullock interviews reveal an actress at ease in her own skin. Romping on the beach with her dogs, outspoken opinions followed with infectious giggling, self-deprecating humor (which she capitalized on several times in Miss Congeniality...
Shadowboxing with Mars in Taurus
Today’s astrology is not lightweight. More like benchpressing. I awakened this morning from a shadowboxing dream. I was being stalked by a predator, and although this was never a physical reality for me, through the screen of my own natal Mars/Pluto square I recognized him as a symbolic piece of my self. In an earlier dream sequence, I raised my hand to strike someone I loved. I was the perpetrator of violence, which shocked the “Me†in the dream. Oh, and this was followed up by a...
Full Moon in Aquarius and a Summer of Love
“Let the sunshine in, Let the sunshine in...†- Hair soundtrack I wasn’t around in 1967. So I don’t know what it was actually like at that first Human be-in, Golden Gate Park, January of 1967. But I’ve seen pictures of the Summer of Love. The Summer of Love was the consummation of a full scale social revolutionary marriage. True to Aquarian form, hippies weren’t capitulating with one another, but an ideal. It’s free love, man. The love was free that summer, so was food, drink and...
The Red Book has kickin’ Shakti Energy!
Sera Beak is just like you and me. And if she's not, basically you want to be her after your done reading The Red Book. "I want to find God in my own way, in my own time, and essentially, by my own self. And I have. She beats deep inside my chest. I see her reflected everywhere. She grows with me." "Yep, I'm a true modern devotee. I love the mystics, The Matrix, yoga and the White Stripes, meditation and designer jeans. In terms of cultural dialects, I am mulitlingual. I speak New Age and...
