The 2018 astrology forecasts are now posted on Scorpio Moon Astrology. You don’t have to email me for one. Really this is more on how I wasn’t able to write all of them. Geez, is this a pattern or what? The time issue.

May’s Book of the Month

This month our Book of the Month returns to an astrology book, which teaches one method of getting the full picture of a birth chart. This past week, I had my own a-ha moments reading the book — so that is what I am doing with my time?

The book is Tracy Marks’ The Art of Chart Interpretation: A Step-by-Step Method of Analyzing, Synthesizing & Understanding the Birth Chart to me. Synchronistically, perhaps, after the decision, I saw that the new Mountain Astrologer magazine published an interview with Tracy Marks on the on-line version of the magazine. The topic was the Moon. Insightful.

The title says it all. Take a look if you have begun to look at your own birth chart and possibly friends and family. (Experienced and professionals astrologers could love this too or gain a nugget or more of insight.) Having some understanding of aspects would be helpful too. There is a lovely appendix describing symbolism of the planets. This is not a book to understand the symbolism of the signs. Click the book title to read more about the book and get a feel for whether it is for you.

Why this image? Check out the newsletter. A hint is that Taurus rules both peace and love. Use the energies mid-month to jumpstart past any resistance to change.
