2019 June Extended Monthly Horoscope by Eric Francis
In several crucial ways this month, you will play a supporting role in the lives of others. This is rarely a situation that is in balance: a great many people are either hardcore givers or takers. I’m talking about something different: investing yourself in a situation or circumstance that is not exactly your own, and working for an outcome that you may not directly benefit from, but which you understand needs to happen.

The Mother of All Freedoms
By Eric Francis Coppolino
On Valentine's Day, I was eagerly waiting for the White House press briefing to begin. It was delayed several times, hour by hour, and finally the 4 pm scheduled event was canceled. That day's press briefing would have focused on a newly revealed debacle in the White House, which started as the revelation that Rob Porter, a top staff member accused of beating two of his wives, had been denied security clearance, but was still handling the president's most highly classified documents.

Saturn's three-year run through Sagittarius ended Dec. 19 when, for the first time in a generation, it returned to a sign that it rules.

A Story of Mercury and the Milky Way
By Eric Francis Coppolino

Small Wheel Turns by the Fire and Rod, Big Wheel Turns by the Grace of God
By Eric Francis Coppolino
When so many outer planets change signs around the same time, society changes. The emphasis of our lives changes. History takes major turns, if only we would notice them. Well, it will be difficult not to notice, and perhaps more difficult to care. But that's what our lives are about now: the quest and the struggle to care, to really care.
