In going public and floating on the Nasdaq stock exchange, Facebook owner Mark Zuckerberg raised around $16 billion of investment for himself and his social media company. Since the launch however, the stock price has dived and alleged hidden financial information about disappointing future profits, primarily based around the rise of Facebook on mobile (cell) phones combined with a lack of an advertising strategy, have surfaced. Zuckerberg and a lot of other rich investors meanwhile cashed in...Read Full Story

By Kelli Fox, The Astrologer  Have some fun today. Arrange for an activity that is full of playfulness. Do something that would bring out the child in even the most mature adult. This suggestion is in keeping with the energy of today's Moon in the sign of joyful Leo. It forms a harmonious trine to innovative Uranus, further inspiring your desire to do things a new way. What's great about this upbeat and do-it-differently energy is that it can be a great stress reliever. And given the...Read Full Story

A nasty earthquake of magnitude 6.0 hit overnight just north of Bologna, Italy killing at least 5 people and destroying a lot of heritage and ancient buildings in the process. Many people think that this was a pre-cursor to the Solar Eclipse which occurs tonight but I disagree. The seeds for this earthquake were sown a year ago by the Solar Eclipse of 1st July 2011. Here’s the earthquake chart from earlier today. The culprits for this event are easy to see with destructive Pluto sitting on...Read Full Story

He says that at 58 he is starting to feel very tired, his body aches and he senses that now is the time to bow out from martial arts movies.

Jackie...Read Full Story

If you think of disco music, there were few more iconic artists than Donna Summer. Hits like “I feel love”, “Hot stuff” “McArthur Park” and “Love to love you baby” blared out every Friday & Saturday nights in neon lit discos around the world. She won 5 Grammy awards but a conscious attempt to change her style to a more new wave and rock based style in the 80’s failed miserably, and she drifted out of the mainstream pop charts. Nevertheless, Donna’s impact had been made and she will forever be...Read Full Story

By Milky Way Maid The Sun is conjunct Mercury at 6 degrees Geminiat 7:19 am Sunday. It can be Mercury And Spot (Photo credit: makelessnoise) difficult to make use of Mercury when it is combust (within 8 degrees of the Sun) or under the Sun’s beams (within 17 degrees). YET when a planet like Mercury is cazimi (within 17 minutes of the center of the Sun), it can be quite powerful. “The Moon remains Cazimi for about an hour – that is, half an hour before and half an hour after the exact...Read Full Story

Greece is on it’s knees again as an attempt to set up a far left coalition government in Greece failed and now an emergency administration is being put in place to give some direction to the ailing country. As I have indicated in previous posts Greece will be looking down the barrel of a gun for years to come and they still have to experience a very tough Pluto opposition to Saturn and the Ascendant in 2014. This post however takes a quick look at why Greece has been so intrinsically liked to...Read Full Story

I’ve been looking at the charts of several European nations trying to see if any other countries are due for a difficult time, and facing the upcoming Uranus Pluto with potential financial worries will be Spain. Spain has serious financial problems caused by the explosion of an over inflated housing market back in 2008. Spain also is blighted by 20% unemployment coupled with over 5 million immigrants, who put a great strain on a fragile economy. I use the 1975 Modern Spain chart, the 22nd...Read Full Story
