All Things Taurus, and a Conversation About Masturbation

I begin tonight’s program with a tour of the new Taurus sky, including the planets spanning from Pisces to Leo. But I focus on what's happening in Taurus -- Mercury conjunct Mars and the Sun conjunct 1992 QB1. Then you're in for an adventure -- a conversation between me and Sarah Taylor on the topic of masturbation. You may know her as our weekend tarot reading columnist each Sunday; she's also studying sexological bodywork, which you will hear about. And you'll hear about its emphasis on masturbation. Planet Waves has long advocated exploring self-sexuality as a tool for consciousness-raising, growth, healing and better sex.

I begin tonight's program with a look at the chart of Hillary Clinton announcing her presidential candidacy with the Sun conjunct Eris. It's a chart so interesting it makes me wonder whether she didn't have an astrologer elect the time for her. I also consider the various versions of her chart, and explain why I am using a chart that nobody else seems to use, which has her as Cancer rising. In the second half of the program I continue my discussion of digital conditions and how we are being trained to be stupid by computers. I also wonder out loud about what the digital environment is doing to "digital natives" who don't know much else. Here is the chart for Hillary's announcement as well as the natal chart I'm using. Note that in the program I am using an announcement chart that's 10 minutes later than reality. It does not change the chart much but it does make Bill's Sun's contact with the ascendant a bit less dramatic -- but not much. My musical guest is Sloan Wainwright.

I begin tonight's program describing what it's like to work on the Internet under ever changing digital conditions, and building the infrastructure of Planet Waves. I also describe the connection between one's natal chart and the conditions of the world at the time of birth. I then carry that discussion into the Millennial generation and what it faces in a world that has never been less predictable or stable. In this discussion I consider two historical charts -- the unification of Germany and the start of the Iraq war. Included amidst this is a discussion of the charts of Iran and the nuclear deal that was reached last week. My musical guest is Bedouin Soundclash, from the CD masterpiece Sounding A Mosaic.

Tonight I look at the Germanwings murder/suicide, focusing on Mercury conjunct Chiron in the chart [view chart]. I also read the chart for the total lunar eclipse that happens Saturday, and what we get when we pull back the veil over the Libra Moon. My musical guest is The Grateful Dead -- in special form: a song by lyricist John Perry Barlow performed by keyboard player Brent Mydland; and then an oldie from the famous Barton Hall concert, Row Jimmy.
