In tonight’s edition, I cover the astrology of Venus conjunct Nessus and Mars conjunct Chiron. I introduced this in Monday’s Astrology Diary (free OR paid registration required to read that article).

In tonight’s extended program (in part inspired by this article about masturbation in hetero couples in NY Magazine), I expand the conversation to include specifically sexual themes of bisexuality and selfsexuality. This is not a discussion you’re likely to hear many places — my perception is that actual bisexuality is left out of the queer discussion, at least most places that discussion happens. However, “gender queer” and “trans” have to a large extent entered that vacuum, and now bisexuality can exist on the fringes of that territory. Really, it needs to exist in its own right.

Now, when entering this territory, my instinct is to go as far back to the origins of the theme as I can. I would remind you that all discussions of sex in Western society are subject to distortion by the Abrahamic religious cults, all of which openly despise sex. I would remind them that humans came before they imposed their concept of god and of morality on us.

From our first days (and long before), Planet Waves has expressed a passionate commitment to a real conversation about sex, inclusive of everyone. In that spirit, here are some additional resources. You will find many articles at the Compersion.net website.

Here is an interview I love, which the publishing website called Self Sex as the Sex of the Future.

There is an old Sexuality Resources Area available — this could use an upgrade, as it’s about 10 years old. Please write to me if you would like to help with that ([email protected]).

Additionally, I have a long-term photo and diary project called Book of Blue. This is available by invitation or request. If you’re interested, write to me at [email protected], introduce yourself and I will send you access to the website.
