Bogie & Bacall: Astrologically Honoring the Last of Hollywood’s Golden Age

Hollywood fame. Tinsel Town glitz.

With the foundation behind the Mecca of the movie business being based in such non-realistic energies as hear say, rumor, and empty promises, the majority of Hollywood’s best known couples tend to have the shortest of shelf lives with most not being in any way memorable together as a romantic team.

Intriguingly, the couple from Hollywood’s “Golden Age” that’s still respected and admired in the present day just as much as when they were at the height of their romantic prime were both born beneath the most non-Tinsel Town like astrological element of Earth. Known for its ethic of hard work, grounded practicality and non-diva like behavior, both the great “film noir” actress Lauren Bacall was born beneath the middle of the Earth signs, Virgo, and the love of her life, one of the most popular actors of all time, Humphrey Bogart was born beneath the last of the Earth signs, Capricorn.

Valentine Words of Warning – Louis XVI & Marie Antoinette: How NOT to behave within a Partnered Relationship or Reign of Rulership

The union between the King and Queen of France, Louis XVI and his wife, Marie Antoinette sets a memorable standard on how NOT to behave within a partnership be it via a marriage or a monarchy. For not only did the relationship between the 18th century rulers not survive due to both parties repeating negative behavior cycles inherent within their Virgo Scorpio union, their cyclical blunders were the cause behind neither of the two royals surviving at all.

The King and Queen’s failure to trust each other along with their inability to communicate openly and honestly between themselves are the key factors which make their royal partnership one of the most tragic (and gruesome) examples of its kind in all of Western History.

When Neverland Merged with Graceland – The Marriage of Michael Jackson & Lisa Marie Presley

In May of 1994, a celebrity wedding grabbed the world’s attention due to the union being so drastically different from the Hollywood norm and the press first learning of it after it had already taken place. However when given a closer astrological look, the famed marriage of Michael Jackson, Virgo to Lisa Marie Presley, Aquarius could also be seen as two people caught in the spotlight of fame from an early age simply wanting nothing more than to belong.

Robert & Clara Schumann: A Mercurial Match Made in Heaven and Hell

Although the Schumann union is praised to this day as one of the best examples of romantic artistry that not even Literature’s Robert and Elizabeth Browning could surpass, the marriage between these Music Masters is thoroughly steeped in that most Mercurial of mentally perceived forces – Duality.

Practice may not lead us to that impossible state of being otherwise known as Perfection but following Sonny Rollins’ example may bring us pretty darn close.

The Saint Who Walked Among Us – The Canonization of Mother Teresa

On September 4th, 2016 a woman was elevated to the highest level of Christian spiritual evolution by virtue of the Catholic Church proclaiming her a saint. A nun who entered this world on August the 26th and who left this plane of existence 87 years later on September the 5th.

With all of the key dates listed above taking place during the time period attributed to the sign of Virgo.

In nearly every way, the exemplary life of the nun known as Mother Teresa embodies the most evolved energies of the karmic sign she was born, died, and canonized under.

Michael Jackson: A Virgo Haunted by the Hubris of Perfection

There are many in my generation who right through to the present day are still quite unsettled by the death of Michael Jackson. For those of us who grew up when MTV first emerged during those long ago days when that channel actually played videos, Michael Jackson’s persona, image, and artistry was constant. The King of Pop was such an integral part of the early 80’s and MTV, that many of us who were around back then assumed Mr. Jackson would be just as consistently present today as he was in 1983.

Thus even in the current here and now it still takes reinforced effort to remind myself the man left this world in 2009 at the age of 50.

Table Talk Most Divine and Dreadful: Dinner with Mr. Alex Kaufman

I got the call around 6:45PM. On the other end of the phone a woman’s voice tossed me a tailor made gauntlet of challenge, “If you’re still serious about meeting Alex, be at the lobby of the Beverly Wilshire by 8:00.” Considering I lived 45 minutes away in non-traffic time with it being the week […]
