  2. Thank you, Eric. You serve Dharma so beautifully. Maybe i’m a geek (an ancient one at that), but when i read how you rectified Woody’s natal chart and looked at it, i could not help but cry. It is as though you brought him back to be with us now.

    But the fine work does not stop at this week’s feature, the tribute to Woody Guthrie. The whole subscriber’s edition is an amazing piece of work. The primer on the Mercury retrograde, the update on Fukushima, the introduction (for me, at least) to Jill Stein, the astrology behind the disturbing events at Penn State, the latest corruption of a vaccine, and not least the artful, touching, truthful horoscopes. Many thanks to you and all who contributed to this extraordinary edition.

  3. For subscribers in the UK, BBC4 is re-showing “Woody Guthrie”, an Arena arts programme from 1988. Programme times (BST) are: Friday 13th, 23.30; Saturday 14th, 03.10; Monday 16th, 01.30; it’s also available on iPlayer. Don’t miss.

  4. I can’t tell you how much I’m enjoying the subscription and all of the amazing astrology. Eric always seems to hit the nail right on the head for me; makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up sometimes! Just mind blowing, and so helpful.

  5. interestingly, a contemporary of guthrie’s who was a media activist (he pioneered community access cable tv — insert your jokes here…) just died. he was four years younger than guthrie, but it sounds like they were cut from similar cloth. this is from Democracy Now! today:

    The pioneering media activist George Stoney has died at the age of 96. Stoney’s career spanned more than half a century, producing film and television that focused on issues of racial justice, social responsibility, community and freedom of speech. An early advocate of video as a tool for social change, Stoney founded public access programs throughout the United States and Canada. In a 2005 interview with Democracy Now!, Stoney discussed his legendary career.

    George Stoney: “I started in the state of Georgia with a little educational program, and before long, I found I was making films for people who should be making them themselves, but at that time, as you know, it was film and it was much more complicated. Now, with this user-friendly equipment, there’s no reason why people should not make their own programs. And now we have an outlet with public access. We look on cable as a way of encouraging public action, not just access. Social change comes with a combination of use of media and people getting out on the streets or getting involved. And we find that if people make programs together and put them on the local channel, that gets them involved.”

  7. Our Woody’s on the radio right now. This great music programme has dedicated a whole 45 mins to him.
