Advertising is destroying our society and our world. I set out to prove this in tonight's edition of Planet Waves FM. But first I look closely at Mercury stationing retrograde in an exact trine to centaur planet Nessus -- focusing the astrology of a discussion that's been brewing on various Planet Waves forums all week. I also cover the Sun square Chiron, which happens the day after Mercury changes apparent directions. Then I look at the natal chart of performance artist, storyteller, musician and inventor Laurie Anderson. Additional resources are inside -- click the title of the program for Laurie's charts and several videos.

You will receive a confirmation and then an email at about 6 pm EDT telling you how to take part. You may participate via landline, cell phone, Skype or live stream on the Internet (Flash capability required). The class takes place with Mercury out of bounds and the Moon void of course (square asteroid Ohpelia). This should be interesting.

In tonight's edition of Planet Waves FM, I cover the Gemini New Moon square Neptune. This is quite an aspect pattern, involving the asteroid Apollo in Virgo. I do the chart of the Isla Vista shooting from Friday night and comment on the toxic combination of advertising images, anti-depressants, hero-worship, guns and alienation. After a song break by Suzanne Vega, I talk about the desire to go beyond alienation that led to my becoming an astrologer, and read some thoughts of Dane Rudhyar, published in 1936. Finally I give a shout out to Bob Dylan and acknowledge him for the turn of phrase after which Planet Waves is named.
