Having made the decision to start working as an astrologer, I have put up a website! The blog features topical posts, updated every two or three days at this stage, as well as information on services that I offer.

As an astrologer, I draw heavily on my spiritual background in Hermetic occulistism and Gnosticism, and in my training as a literature critic, teacher and counsellor. I am sure there will be the occasional bit of good-natured snarking at conspiracy theorists and New-Age nutters, too.

At this stage, I am looking for a limited number of volunteers who would like free chart readings - this is for practise, as I feel myself to be at an 'apprentice' level in regards to my abilities. The rule is 'One Chart Per Person' - I would also like some ongoing contact with anyone who would like a full reading done, for feedback, discussion and confirmation on the interpretation of their charts.

If you would like to participate, please email me with your name, details, chart data, any questions, and a contact (email or instant messenger, your preference). Natal charts, synastry or composite charts and electional (deciding on a date for particular events) charts are my main offerings at the moment.

I would like some volunteers for forecasts, as this is the area I am currently studying. If you'd like a forecast, I'd be very grateful to draw up transits or horary for someone willing to commit to updates about whether or not they are accurate over the coming months.

After a few months off, it's out. In iTunes and at http://tdjacobs.com/blog.
I answer a listener question about a life transition including work, and then take a look at Hillary Clinton's chart in terms of her karmic skipped steps, some heavy squares to her nodal axis.

I made a post about Jill Stuart, wife of Chad Stuart (of Chad & Jeremy), here, a long time ago. At that time the few videos that featured the music Chad and Jill made together had been removed from youtube. Recently I some of them have been re-uploaded.
I remember reading some place about Jill being absolutely terrified to go onstage, which you can really see from the videos. She pulls it off nicely though, and it's really sweet to see Chad's reassuring looks.
Just thought I'd share them because there's hardly anything you can find on the internet of these two together.

( cut for videos )

I hope you enjoyed those as much as I did.

... but I'm about to show his stuffs again. Enjoy!!!

today was a day of intense turmoil, thought, and choice; while none of it was desperately morose or serious, i watched the gray sky beat light yellow pieces of sun off of its transparent skin like an act of defiance, a dance that burned my gaze and caused me to blink away. i wanted to skip all of my classes and run in the woods again before demeter great grief causes flakes of snow as fat as my tongue to fall onto the ground but i was deeply aching for human contact ... the discussion of topic or a small debate. i began to ponder my immediate desire to be with nature Herself, the lone naked trees of late autumn my only company as my knees and legs wear into the ground with each mile where i force my body against the wind. and then the immediate thought : with Her am i ever truly alone? there is a clarity that the wild limbs and fingers of the forest bring (and as burroughs said : the ocean air causes your lungs to expand like nothing else on earth) that i cannot find with other people; with animals, yes. it is truly clear (with devout contemplation to the subject) as i get older that life begins with animals ... anything that is genuinely decent in me i have learned from my fine furred friends : the ability to forgive without regret or pretense, intense camaraderie, or even the simplistic beauty of napping in the sun and wrapping your body next to your own kind while you sleep. i love humanity and have a great respect and compassion for people, finding them endlessly fascinating and erotic, but enormously tedious. the energy that is required to adhere to social and cultural customs of acquaintanceship and courtship is insanely tiring and the welcome reprieve of watching cats roam in tall sharp grass or the sound of dry leaves breathing against the oak fence and through the hairless branches of the apple trees fixes the broken bones of my spirit.

sometimes i dream of a solitude with nature that would lead to an ascetic life ... a simplicity that would cause the dark and muddled fog of my mind to dissipate, where i could find what i truly am. what am i made of? generations of eastern european warriors and strong women who suffered and survived it all as their skin wrinkled and backs arched. triumph of the spirit! triumph of the sisters and brothers who move their bodies like trees through the storm, rooted and swaying their arms with the wind, never against it. i could lose myself to the mountains or the water ... and come back as what? the possibilities are endless and terrifying. what if the disconnection to my own society doesn't cease but only perpetuates until a solitary existence is the only life imaginable? what in the poet of my soul cries for the air and the rain, the western prairies where the vast landscape consumes your thoughts like a hungry and feral creature?

i don't understand the dichotomy of being without a mate ... to me it is another example of how the analytical and intuitive forces in me constantly battle. as a single woman i am given more freedom in action, appearance, and decision; i am allowed to spend my hours selfishly, and have the liberation of never having to answer to anyone. my explanations are required only to myself and (for an even more hedonistic example) i have no responsibility for anyone financially. however, alone in the hallway today, stretched out on a bench and listening to the professor in the next room speak his academic soliloquy i began to think of how you tied my wrists to your bed years ago, undoing the buttons of my shirt with your teeth. i could feel your beard rub against my nipples, your hot breath on my neck and the heels of my feet kept digging into your bed until i pushed the blanket onto the floor and revealed the dark purple sheets underneath. you pulled off my shorts (it was warm july) and kissed my right thigh while i struggled against my restraints and begged begged begged for you to untie me. you only laughed as your kisses reached closer in ... sometimes sexual acts occur only out of physical necessity, like a bland meal eaten to keep you alive. but you grabbed my thick thighs and bit and tore through every part of me ... never before had i felt so beautiful and every cell of my organism begged for you to move inside of me.

those were my thoughts this evening and i expect nothing less than that adoration from potential lovers ... a respect and heat for whatever pleasure you would receive from sharing me. while i do not attract many men (with my short hair and unshaved body, my boyish appearance) i refuse to change to comfort weak mates with weak dispositions and weak minds. you can only have me as i was undoubtedly born to be and until then my integrity will keep me company at night.

the hours of this day are ending and the morning will soon approach - the appalachian fog surrenders to the eastern sun while i cut apples in the kitchen, the reflection of this young face a familiar stranger.

Due to a massive USPS screw-up, the Dirty South Will Call didn't receive their Raven Moon and testers in time for Will Call. So, they're holding a second Raven Moon Will Call!

GA Will Call will be at Whole Foods Market, aka Harry’s Farmer’s Market, in Roswell, GA.

They will be holding Will Call on Sunday, November 15th from 5 to 8pm, inside Salud (which is inside the store.)

Whole Foods Market is located at 1180 Upper Hembree Road, Roswell, GA, 30076.

They will be holding an auction to benefit flood damaged farms in GA. Everyone who donates will receive an imp of Daya.


They will have all of the current LE’s available, along with their extensive selection of GC scents and all of the Retail-only Salon series as well.

Has anyone linked this particular artist here? Because in addition to regular taxidermy she creates some definite curiosities.

Now that saturn has finally transited into my twelfth house, I am watching anxiously for that "initiation" into the next house theme, and unlike my previous saturn transits I don't have any idea of what to expect. Maybe I'm dull, but the usual interpretations don't seem relevant to me at all. Then I read that most astrologers don't actually know what the 12th house signifies. If any of you geniuses can supply me an explanation that makes sense, gives me a good idea what's coming, I'd appreciate it.

"Goth" is fairly Scorpionic/Plutonic, right? I thought so, but I was just checking. Could always use a 2nd opinion. Horror movies and books are also fairly Scorpionic/Plutonic, right? Is science fiction fairly Aquarian?

Also:

Game terminated. Someone cheated.

Btw, speaking of the 11th, who else is a 11th house person? Since I haven't seen a lot of 11th house charts, I assume we're in the minority. Are we?

If the sun enters a sign that is not your sun sign, but very dominant in your chart, what effect does that generally have on you?

I'm a Scorpio AC, and I've noticed that my usual obsessiveness has EXPLODED, and I've been ridiculously emotional...like wanting to cry over the silliest things, and I'm typically pretty cool-headed.
