A quick heads-up that I will be doing an interview on a web talk show Wednesday at 3:00 p.m. Eastern with Wendy Garret  (Broadcast Journalist, Intuitive, Author of Talking to Nightlights)  on her “Conscious Living” talk show.  I suspect we’ll be talking about the “astrological weather” that’s  going on now into the near future, as well as discussing why certain astrological signs are having a more challenging time than others – and how best to put these challenges to good use.  Here’s the link: http://www.talkshoe.com/talkshoe/web/talkCast.jsp?masterId=11638&cmd=tc

Recently both Joe and Nancy had ‘chat interviews’ live online with the TKR Remote Viewing project, as part of TKR’s “Remote Viewing Expo Summer 2009.”

Really interesting, and great to talk with them!

For those of you who missed the occasion to attend and to suggest questions for the interviewer, transcripts for both interviews are now available online for review.

Both of these are in PDF format.

Joe’s is linked from his RV Expo page:

Nancy’s from hers:

Ten more questions are still to be answered by Joe via email per his kind offer in the chat, and that will be posted as an interview or part of one at TKR and/or the Dojo Psi in the next few months.

Nancy McMoneagle is going to be live online in chat with the TKR Remote Viewers, Tuesday, July 21, at 9:00pm Eastern time.

Folks at the chat can suggest questions to the moderator (that’s me, and I use all those I can). If you’re interested in either astrology or remote viewing project management, or Nancy personally, feel welcome to come by and help us make her feel welcome!

The chat room is here: http://www.dojopsi.com/chat/index-conference.cfm

There will be a transcript within a week, posted on Nancy’s feature page at the Dojo Psi, here: http://www.dojopsi.com/rvexpo/Nancy/

For you moon lovers and star gazers, Nancy’s write-up on the 2008 Lunations and Eclipses is now online!

Sorry for the long space in between blog entries, folks — it’s been busier than ever around here, which hasn’t left much time or focus for updating the blog. Joe and I have been traveling quite a bit in addition to our usual workload, so the good news is we’ve been out and about in the real world instead of too much virtual computer life. The other news is, we’ve not been very good about keeping up with e-mail or our Blog (clearly)!

In fact, we’re taking off again, which is what I wanted to share with you all, especially our Japanese friends. Joe will be appearing on another “FBI: Psychic Investigators” show for Nippon TV in the next couple of weeks. I think this will be show number 13. The Japanese film crew was here about a month ago, filming Joe in our dining room as he remote viewed the locations of a couple of missing people. As ever with all such targets, I wrote down the names of the missing people and put that in closed, opaque envelopes, giving each envelope a target number.

Joe accurately described the targets, then drew maps and gave specific suggestions about where they should look for these people. The Japanese film crew and producer then took this information and will use Joe’s maps, drawings and descriptions, along with the help of a detective, to see if they can find the people. Joe was pleased to once again work a cold case file with retired LAPD detective, Jimmy Sakoda, who came to Virginia with the film crew. We’ll share more details on that case once it’s solved!

The show will be aired IN JAPAN ONLY on Nippon TV, Channel 4, the end of September — I think they said the 25th, around 9:00 p.m. Check your listings to make sure. After we return from the other side of the world – which besides Tokyo, includes a side trip to Kyoto (my favorite city), Nara, where the huge Buddha is, and Yamaguchi prefecture south of Tokyo, we’ll let you know if they were able to locate Joe’s targets. They don’t tell us any of the results ahead of time, presumably so Joe’s reaction in the studio portion of the filming will be spontaneous. So…stay tuned!

Meanwhile, anyone interested in looking at the astrological forecasts for 2008 may want to pick up a copy of Sydney Omarr’s ASTROLOGICAL GUIDE FOR YOU IN 2008, which my writer/astrologer friend, Trish MacGregor, does each year. I’ve got an article in it, “Signs to Make a Difference,” about how each sign can make a positive difference in the world by honoring their Sun Sign traits.

I hope everyone enjoys what’s left of the sultry days of summer, as the brisk breezes of autumn will be here forthwith. We’ll let you know how Joe’s remote viewing turns out for the Japanese TV show, and update you more frequently than once everyone five months — promise!

Warm regards to all,
Scooter

A number of people have asked me what I think about Pluto’s recent demotion by the IAU from being a planet to being a “dwarf planet,” and if this will have any impact on astrology.

I don’t think its reclassification into a dwarf planet will change the effects we’ve noted from Pluto since its discovery in the early 30s. As someone once said, a rose by any other name is still a rose! Even so, as an astrologer, I’m open to and curious about what possible changes could occur as a result, so I have great interest in watching what happens from here on.

Regarding the question concerning what I think about the other two planets the IAU was considering, which I assume to be UB313 (Xena) and asteroid Ceres — since they’re now classified as dwarf planets, again, it will be fascinating to observe what happens. I find it interesting that both planets have feminine connotations, each one representing different ends of the feminine spectrum with UB313 nicknamed Xena after a “warrior princess,” and Ceres, which is mythologically and astrologically associated with the nurturing mother.

Now that these celestial bodies have received recognition by the earthly astronomical “Powers That Be” in Prague at the IAU, I’m guessing we’ll see a lot more activity and hear more news about women in the military and in politics, news about certain powerful women and how they’re both warrior and mother, more focus on women’s power and position (or lack thereof) worldwide, more about the need for nurturing and feeding people worldwide, and so forth. Perhaps this heralds a time of getting back to honoring the feminine… Now, wouldn’t that be special?!

Memoirs of a Psychic Spy has finally hit the street. It is the trade paperback edition of my original hardcover book Stargate Chronicles. I think the name change has helped to guide people sharing an interest in such topics to the right place just a bit faster than the original title might have, and at certainly a better price.

My wife, Scooter, has a wonderful article that’s just come out in Sidney Omarr’s Astrological Guide for You in 2007. It’s titled; “It’s Time to Think Big, by Jove!” [pg. 296] She provides a lot of very interesting detail about Jupiter and how it affects each of the signs next year when it moves into its own sign of Sagittarius. She has contributed articles for the Omarr Annual for three years running, and they are all excellent. I believe her insight as an Astrologer is exceptional, but then I might be slightly biased.

The 2006 Lunations and Eclipses page is now here in the blog, for those looking for the reference.
