Hi Eric,
My praises to you on your recent newsletter; not only is it brilliant, inspiring and very easy to understand, but you have hit the bulls-eye of what is most important on our planet–Rachel Carson’s work. I particularly liked this statement you made:
“I realize I keep using the word spiritual in this article, because that’s the theme that keeps coming out of these charts again and again — a deep connection to life and existence, yet with its roots in the unseen world. Carson was a mystic in the deepest sense of the word, and her ability to bridge the worlds of mysticism and science is something that today we would describe as ‘shamanic’. Yet she is not cobbling these things together as if they were separate; rather, they are emerging from the same deep inner place.”
I am so impressed with your soft, compassionate and patient commenting on broad subjects of dire importance and the amazing astrology you integrate.
Thank You!
– Hillary
I just read your Rachel Carson article and wanted to let you know how much I appreciate all the effort you have put into it. I especially enjoyed the astrology, both Rachel’s and the Silent Spring chart too. On this day after the 50th anniversary of it’s release I’m sure you are aware of the yod between Diana at 22 Scorpio (with Juno and Terpsichore) sextile Mars at 22 Virgo as they both quincunx Eris at 22 Aries who then opposes Saturn at 22 Libra. I see where you got your inspiration! It is also fitting, 50 years later that the feminine symbols would not only celebrate Rachel but the growing consciousness of the yin qualities of Nature. That Diana as protector of animals, especially the defenseless young, Eris’ with her penchant for stirring up controversy, Juno’s support for those who can’t speak up for themselves, and Terpsichore’s ability to choreograph all the many procedural steps, would inlist the aid of Mars is quite logical. At least he has Nature on his radar while in Virgo, and together they all will prevail on Saturn as the “establishment” to renew the efforts to eliminate or at least reduce the toxins so prevalent in our air, land and sea. Timing is everything isn’t it?
