Ocyrhoe, daughter of Chiron and Chariclo. She was transformed into a horse because she told her father Chiron his exact fate. Ocyrhoe revealed that he would forsake his immortality to be spared the agonizing pain of a serpent's poison. For this transgression, Ocyrhoe's ability to speak was taken. One might assume that she turned into a horse because her father was a centaur, and because she had long, auburn hair.[4]

My fave AP photog was Alan Diaz...he took the classic dimple chad shot and had the trust of the Gonzalez family in Miami and was standing guard inside their house. It's funny we have not heard a peep from Elian since he was taken back to Cuba 24 years ago. The story of that photo is in the Times obituary for Diaz. I had not read it till now -- it's similar to what I imagined. Aaaaah his photography teacher Korda took the famous photo of Che that you used to see on tee-shirts. That is just so perfect I knew I loved him!

Harris a party girl? That's one party i can skip. 🤣🤣🤣

Your analysis has made me just a little bit more apprehensive about next Tuesday. "Just a little bit more," because my apprehension level was already close to being pinned up at the top, no room to get a LOT more apprehensive. "It's gonna get stranger."

A client out Left (East Bay) called me up on the phone and asked me why I refer to him as The Donald. She called me, so I called her and explained it. Are there any New Yorkers who get the joke?

That was an amazing story about 2000 election astrology prediction

It was crazy at the time and now wilder to realize it was 24 years ago. I am not finding anything about Jim online; this is buried in the TMA 2000 archives -- if you can check something like the Sept/Oct edition. That's where it was -- right before the election. That may have been the same issue where Rob Hand predicted a war with Afghanistan...

hmmm I get a strange result when I go there...we do need to check TMA. I wonder if they have their archives online.

Hi Eric thanks so much for the additional info about the chart of Kamala Harris. I saw the Neptune Mars placements and then talked myself out of attaching importance to them because the square was 5 degrees out and I didn’t want to make the chart fit with what I’d gleaned about her from various sources, some very good and others more sketchy.

I have Venus Square Neptune in my chart. LOL!

There is also a trine aspect between Mercury and Neptune, though. That may explain why I hate most of modern paintings and sculptures.

Then there is Mars semi-sextile Neptune, which I don't know how to interpret. The semi-sextile isn't that important, right?

One of those horrible AI astrology sites says that during a transit Mars semi-sextile Neptune people have lowered defenses and a greater chance of contracting an infectious disease. LOOOOL!

Semi Sextile: two adjoining signs...different element, different triplicity. Read it like "integration between very different neighbors" and also similar to a quincunx (both are inconjunct). With an aspect like that, the dignity of Venus is going to be important. What is the sign placement of both of the points?

Venus is in Pisces, Neptune in Cap.

To be more precise: Venus last degree of Pisces, Neptune in the second degree of Capricorn.

wait, that's a sextile. isn't it? 58 degrees?

Expand full comment

It's 88 degrees. It would be 90 degrees if Neptune was in 29 os Sag, but it's just 2 degress past that.

that is an out of sign square.

ah! I see. The polarity is the same. It should be a different polarity.

Expand full comment

ok so for starters, that Venus is very strong, in exaltation. What is Jupiter doing?

Expand full comment

Jupiter is in Capricorn, square the Sun in Aries, sextile Saturn in Scorpio.

Impressive!

Thank you. I had heard before that Harris enjoys alcohol a bit too much. So when you were speaking of all the planets and astroids clumped in Capicorn having to do with alcohol Harris came to mind. I pray a lot these days. I think that practice will continue and increase. “All great changes are preceded by chaos”. Deepak Chopra
