This is the third blog in the series The Firdaria Diaries which begins at eighteen and continues the journey from our early adulthood to the final planetary period in our seventies. Last week I looked at the ages from twenty one to twenty three when the focus moved to public life, status, career and study choices, groups with influence over the individual, and the end of a cycle at twenty three and preparation for a new cycle in the coming year. This blog…..
Last week we began the journey through adulthood with the ages of eighteen to twenty when relationships were highlighted, and both day and night charts began a new major Firdaria during this time. From the age of eighteen, Mercury will be in charge of day-timers for thirteen years, whilst Jupiter’s rule began at twenty for the night-timers and will be the major Firdaria Lord for the next twelve years. These two planets will direct life until just into the early…..
Current from 28th October to 12th November 2019 Once more the Moon begins a new cycle with the Sun. This time they meet in Scorpio, the sign ruled by Mars. As the Sun and Moon’s dispositor, Mars becomes the focal planet over the next two weeks. Any critical aspect Mars makes to the other planets will have an influence on the events during the waxing phases of the upcoming lunar cycle. New moon periods are an ideal opportunity for the…..
In most cultures turning eighteen is a celebration in recognition of the fact that we are leaving childhood and now stand on the threshold of adulthood. Astrologically it is also a good place to start when looking at how life will unfold through the combined lens of profection and Firdaria. Profections: Moving Forward Through the Houses 18 years old : SEVENTH HOUSE Halfway around the chart, and in opposite position to the Ascendant, lies the seventh house signifying our interactions…..
Starting with the Basics The Firdaria Diaries is a new weekly blog which will feature two traditional predictive techniques called profection and firdaria. It aims to examine life from the perspective of these two methods starting with adulthood at 18 years of age and moving forwards three years at a time, to the mature age of 72 years. These two methods will work for you regardless of whether your Sun is in Gemini, or Pisces or Virgo, or any of…..
Current from 13th October to 28th October 2019 A full moon means that the moon and the sun are half way through their twenty nine day cycle. Astrologically, the Moon is now exactly opposite the Sun and the Moon will rise as the Sun sets on 13th October 2019. The Full Moon chart is active for two weeks whilst the Moon continues to lose her light and the cycle is now in its waning phase. The chart reflects the nature…..
Current from 28th September 2019 to 13th October 2019 A new moon means that the moon and the sun have come together in the night sky to begin a new cycle. Astrologically, the two luminaries (and now I can capitalize them), that is, the Sun and Moon, met at five degrees of Libra on 28th September 2019. The Moon is fast moving and travels through the entire zodiac in 27 days. However, the Sun is moving too, and it takes…..
Writing has a lot to do with timing. When to sit down and put random ideas into chaotic files that keep multiplying of their own accord, when to leave the keyboard to save your hardware and your sanity, and when to commit your ramblings into hopefully what will be a cohesive and sensible sequence of ideas. More important than knowing when to start writing, is having the discipline and common sense to know when it’s time to stop. Once that…..
