The ChatGPT King Isn’t Worried, but He Knows You Might Be

"To spend time with Mr. Altman is to understand that Silicon Valley will push this technology forward even though it is not quite sure what the implications will be. At one point during our dinner in 2019, he paraphrased Robert Oppenheimer, the leader of the Manhattan Project, who believed the atomic bomb was an inevitability of scientific progress. “Technology happens because it is pos ...

"[F]ixed star precision astrology a la "Astrology King":

"Here a perspective from the "Astrology King" himself on this topic:

"I do not use Houses nor Signs. I use aspects and fixed stars. I do use cardinal points like AC and MC. I don’t believe House cusps are real. They have no energy. They are constructs of the human imagination and have purely symbolic meaning, in much the same way as Tarot cards. This article explains my r ...

Secrets of Krittika Nakshatra by Simon Chokoisky
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLFqTF_TOUw
"Fixed stars, or yoga taras, are the key to understanding the nakshatras! [...] Krittika contains two powerful yoga taras- Algol and Alcyone, each with vastly different connotations. This may account for the Sharp/Soft quality of Krittika."

Three´s A Charm...

"I love this one because it’s so subtle. This is a mash up of “two’s company, (but) three’s a crowd” (a way of asking a third person to leave because you want to be alone with someone) and “third time’s a charm” (the third time you try something it will work). The mix up is caused by the number three appearing in both idioms, and with the similar looking and sounding “charm” and “crowd”." - https://malaphors.com/2016/06/20/threes-a-charm/ or h ...

I’m curious about whether people who have long term (preferably 5 years or more) believe that their Placidus 7th house ruler or their Sidereal 7th house ruler describes their partner better? My Sidereal 7th house ruler seems 100% better than my Placidus 7th house ruler. Especially since they don’t use Pluto. lol My Placidus ruler is the Sun and it’s conjunct both the south node and the MC in Scorpio. My Sidereal would give me a sweet Libra Moon as my 7th house ruler. No pluto conjunction because ...

When I first started studying and learning Astrology for myself, I was quite overwhelmed and confused by all the different astrological systems, philosophies/ideologies and approaches, e.g. Western vs. Vedic, tropical vs. sidereal, Whole Sign House vs. Placidus, etc. pp.

Now, let´s talk about Moon sign compatibility for a moment, one of the most neglected parts in Western compatibility analysis.

It´s a misconception, this time among astrologers, that the Moon is more important in women´s horoscopes than in men´s.

This is absolutely wrong.

The Moon is the most significant pointer to everything that women AND men alike are (unconsciously and) emotionally attracted an ...

The new moon in March 2025 will happen around a stellium of high magnitude.

The Moon will be in alignment with , and just behind it & will also be hovering between us and the Sun, seemingly retrograding, at full speed. And far beyond the Sun we´ll have and , both entering sidereal .

The fact that all these planets will converge on the Equinox makes me wonder...:

At the center of our milky-way galaxy resides a supermassive black hole commonly called "Sagittarius A*" by astronomers, precisely because it appears to be located at the very beginning of the constellation of Sagittarius in our night sky.

Now, to define the word "Ayanamśa" I would say that it´s an extra-solar point of reference taken as the beginning of our (sidereal) zodiac. And by "extra-solar" I mean beyond our solar system, whether in interstellar or even in ...
