She's constantly trying to sound cute or funny or something and misses the mark just about every time.Scott Stenwickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12389664381513219613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659330560006301380.post-60414060462107850162009-02-24T11:34:00.000-08:002009-02-24T11:34:00.000-08:00Astrology is to me like math is to me.

Which is why this year I want to learn the basics, if for no other purpose than to streangthen my own willpower.Mr. J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08992497721332168579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659330560006301380.post-22625739986476842022009-02-24T10:09:00.000-08:002009-02-24T10:09:00.000-08:00Nice post.

Like you, I began my work only with the phases of the moon, then began to also use the sun and other planets depending upon their station, the houses they are in, and their relation to one another.<BR/><BR/>I've been told it is not good to do any magic during eclipses, but personal experience has already proven the incredible power of this time. One caveat (to all who may be reading); be careful of what you do and how you do it. Since this time IS so powerful, the results will be what you want, though may not be achieved exactly how you expect, and they will last.<BR/><BR/>:)Rose Weaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11289493128753395716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659330560006301380.post-87364615185854894192009-02-23T19:35:00.000-08:002009-02-23T19:35:00.000-08:00Hi, it depends hugely on your level of interest an...Hi, it depends hugely on your level of interest and the work that you are willing to spend reading.<BR/><BR/>I assume you are not hugely interested in natal or mundane astrology.

You have no need to know if the pars spiritum and pars futurorum should be reversed by night or not.<BR/>It is interesting that you felt that the BHR has "shieded" you from astrological influence... although, I probably would disagree with that. <BR/>Mercury retrograde and other transits are only "heavy" influence, but most of astrology is not influencial... the chart "unfolds" itself through time. E.G when your children are born, I am sure there will be several indications about it.<BR/>Best regardsyuzuruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13690259763179863019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659330560006301380.post-78765201046732750012009-02-23T16:29:00.000-08:002009-02-23T16:29:00.000-08:00"The initiation lasted 2 weeks starting on a Monda..."The initiation lasted 2 weeks starting on a Monday and required the aspirant to summon an archangel every other day and ask for an empowerent. That brought them through all seven planetary archangels in order: Mon, Wed, Friday, Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday."<BR/><BR/>So that's why you recommended working on a problem for two weeks: that way you can use the planetary days in the correct sequence - Neat.Qabalierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12468095077576303673noreply@blogger.com
