I cast a horary astrology chart to ask the same question I posed to the tarot yesterday: What are the chances for a global pandemic of the COVID-19 coronavirus? In keeping with John Frawley's recommendation, I used the Regiomontanus house system. A quick disclaimer: there is no reason to believe that my work is any … Continue reading Coronavirus Pandemic: A Horary Perspective

Where Is George? – A Horary Update
I have been asked by the group that continues to search for George Cross (a Berlin, NH man who has been missing since last September) whether I have any new insights into his whereabouts. Although my last attempt with the tarot showed a different direction and location than previous readings, I decided to refresh the … Continue reading Where Is George? – A Horary Update
An Astro-Tarot Location Method
When dealing with lost items or missing persons, I often default to horary astrology because of its proven effectiveness. But I'm always looking for ways to augment that approach with tarot. I made a previous attempt to blend the location principles of horary astrology from John Frawley's book The Horary Textbook with a tarot layout … Continue reading An Astro-Tarot Location Method
What Happened to George? – A Horary Astrology Perspective
I've been holding off from posting this in hope that more information on the current status and location of George Cross would come to light, but there has been nothing new since my earlier tarot reading. In this horary chart I've taken a few liberties with astrologer John Frawley's methods, but the bottom line continues … Continue reading What Happened to George? – A Horary Astrology Perspective
A Horary Slam-Dunk
I recently lost the gemstone out of one of my rings. First, I'll pass on what I know about the situation: I had just finished shaving, had let the water out of the sink and was washing my hands when I noticed that the setting of the ring was empty, although the stone had been … Continue reading A Horary Slam-Dunk
Unto the Breach
As promised, I erected a mundane horoscope to examine the implications of Mars being singularly bright in the evening sky at the time of the Congressional mid-term elections in the United States. The title of this post alludes to the famous lines from Act III, Scene I of Shakespeare's play Henry V, which conclude with: … Continue reading Unto the Breach
Drums in the Deep
First off, this isn't so much a prediction as a premonition. In The Lord of the Rings, Gandalf, reading from the Book of Mazarbul while in Moria, quotes the following ominous passage: "They have taken the Bridge and the Second Hall. We have barred the gates, but cannot hold them for long. The ground shakes... … Continue reading Drums in the Deep
Horary Astrology Books and Software
For the last several years I've been on a crusade to hone my horary astrology skills. Back in the '70s I was an associate of well-known horary astrologer Alphee Lavoie in Connecticut for a short time, but went away from horary when I left the area. I came back to it when I connected with … Continue reading Horary Astrology Books and Software
Wish List for 2018
I've slowed down considerably in buying new tarot and oracle decks over the last couple of years. It's not that I don't lust after the latest-and-greatest releases touted by people I trust on the cartomancy forums, it's just that - short of superlative artwork or a magnificent companion book - there just isn't much to … Continue reading Wish List for 2018
Astrology Takes a Detour
In the interest of full disclosure, I should mention first that I've been what is known as a "psychological" astrologer since the term gained popularity in the early 1970s. British astrologer Alan Leo - often called "the father of modern astrology" - was the first practitioner of what he called "the science of tendencies" rather … Continue reading Astrology Takes a Detour
