Astrology Without the Leftwing Aftertaste

This site will be dormant for awhile. 'Thoroughly immersed in pre-holiday errands and such. I hope to add some commentary and information in the coming year. In the mean time, please enjoy or be sparked to rage by what I have to say regarding Astrology and political philosophy.

There is plenty I can write regarding a field of interest that I've had for over 27 years. I feel that I can explain astrological principals in a way that makes them accessible but without the syrupy New Age attributes that come with many other web sites or publications devoted to astrology. Notably, this also means that I will espouse my astrological ideals with a bias for a more conservative view of life and world events. I do this not just because I am a "conservative/libertarian/classical liberal" (in the philosophical style of Edmund Burke, Winston Churchill, and Ronald Reagan) but also as a valid response to the dominance of left-wing thought that one finds corrupting so much of conventional astrology. I have all-too-often read relatively sane and interesting essays on astrology that eventually get in their cliche' comments on "selfishness" and "Reagan and Thatcher" or completely non-contextual rants regarding George Bush and the American "empire" etc., ad nauseum.

My first real posting regarding astrology is below and was posted at my other site for quite some time. I think it is an appropriate introduction to the way I will articulate astrological principals although some of my posts will be more neutral in content (the astrology of romance has little to do with political philosophy -- though many leftists would disagree of course since, to them, everything is political).

Astrology affords an insight into human character and mass-psychology that is interesting to say the least. Whether one believes in the predictive aspects of astrology or not, I think there is plenty in the ancient system that offers an insightful schematic of how the world operates.

Again, though it may be several months before I begin regular postings here, I hope that when I do, my observations will be intriguing or at least mildly interesting.
