The Astrology of Baron Samadhi von Coppockalypse PHD

Volume 65: Naked in Hel

There are some problems that are illuminated by analysis, by an examination of principles, or details. However, some problems can only be solved by accepting the obvious and applying one's will. This is what we are dealing with right now.

The events leading up to and framing the Full Moon on Sunday night, the 5th, demand a nakedness before the raw experience of our situations, and an exercise of the will to move events in the direction desired.

Mercury's Retrograde sabotages our ability to structure things. Instead of making plans and imposing them onto the structure of our lives, we find our lives changing plans and imposing their structure on us. Adaptability of methods married to steadiness of purpose is key.

This Full Moon sees a reiteration of the Grand Cross pattern, which has characterized the overall dynamic of 2006. A tense array of conflicting forces all holding each other in check. Creating the need for change but not the means. This Full brings us the fullest formation of this pattern, and will also decide it into a specific direction- transformation. As Grand Crosses go, this is a massive one, involving 8 of the planets. "Interesting" energy, to be sure.

Vulnerability

As it has for many already, this time period strips away the protective perceptive veils between us and our lives. The Baron is reminded of a Babylonian myth, wherein, Inanna, the Queen of Heaven, must visit her sister, the Queen of the Underworld, Erish-Kigal, on her own turf. In order to descend into hel, she is forced to shed her garments in 7 layers, and to stride into the lowest level without any external protection.

Though we may not be the Queen of Heaven, many of us, nonetheless, will share her experience. Naked in hell. Remember. Pain is a teacher. The mind is purified by fear. The heart by betrayal. The body by hunger. The will by opposition.

Personal

On a personal level, the Baron sees the astral dynamics of the present dividing people into 3 categories:

--> --> 1. Those who are already on the right track with their lives. The hopeful and positive undergoes a trial. With everything that can going wrong, it is easy for the light that hopes and creates to become the light that scorches and burns. During this period, many will resort to works of wrath as a result of their frustration. If self destructive indulgence in anger is minimized, these people will transform their positive direction into a more solid, mature foundation with the application of will over the next couple weeks.

2. Those who have painted themselves into a corner. Those who have painted themselves into a corner, in whatever regard, will be forced to confront and conquer the issues which they have ignored or dealt poorly with, or guarantee themselves a ****** place for the next cycle. Do not give up. Though it may not be possible to "win," it is quite possible to "lose."

--> --> 3. Those who are at a crossroads. Which path will you choose? In this case the path of least resistance is a destructive one, leading you down the tunnels of rotten potential. Don't let the ease of a decision sway you.

Political

Horoscopes: Oct. 30th- Nov. 5th

Aries: Prize-less Fighter

Someone threw a bucket of sewer water on the fire. This is a struggle, though not the kind you're used to. There will be no prizes awarded, or recognition received. The trophy is to come through it with your resolve intact, and your spirit changed, but unspoilt.

Taurus: Get Off The Tracks

Changes which you've been meaning to make in the way you do things for quite sometime now will be catalyzed soon enough. A key point in transformations you are trying to make. Move forward. A refusal to move at this point is an invitation to decay.

Gemini: System Failure

Access to your manic mode has been denied. User ID not recognized. Login broken, please try back later. The objective, superior perspective you depend on to excel is currently not available. Attempts to force it may short-circuit the system.

Cancer: Exoskeleton Modification

The new moon challenged the way that you relate to people. Now you will either suffer for not adapting to those changes, or you will suffer as you change your crusty ways. Its up to you, crabby.

Leo: Dim Present, Bright Future

This is a serious test for you. Challenges to your self representation are coming hard and heavy. They present a good number of reasons to change yourself for the better. It will take time to incorporate these changes into you, but if you do, 2007 will most likely rock your socks off.

Virgo: Personal Aide to the Messiah

Your schedule should be packed solid with the job of fixing all the miscommunications that have been popping up. Only you can save us from the details, Virgo. Only you.

Libra: Balanced Portfolio

Still grappling with a new information on your relationship paradigm? Some changes take a while. In the mean-time, watch you finances and invest your energy wisely.

Scorpio: That's So Mettle

Is it on or is it on? This is your time. Show everybody what mettle really is. Or how metal you really are. Or both.

Sagittarius: Not Going To Happen

Psychological down-time. Take as much time out as you can to be alone. Try to spend time not-obsessed with something, and not-around other people. Yeah, right! Oh, and try and assess your motives at a deep, critical level! That'll happen! Hahahaha! These horoscopes are funny!

Capricorn: Whatever Works

Your dreams, delusions, imaginations and spiritual experiences are costing you time and money as the structure of your identity continues its descent into the abyss. Focus on networking with creative people in order to off set expenses and depression. Or just be miserable. Whatever works.

Aquarius: Not Dead But Dreaming

Your dreams are most likely getting slammed, and your laboratory is probably over-run with horrifying creations gone wrong. This is a rough time period for you, but you will emerge the better for it. By next year you'll be able to sew back together the dead pieces of your dream and re-infuse them with horrifying life. Sometimes its good to be a mad scientist.

Pisces: Fact or Crucifiction?

Yay! Another chance to climb up onto the cross! You've got a free ticket for the exciting new martyr themed thrill ride- the Pain-Coaster! Soar to new heights of existential anguish, but don't puke!

Disclaimer: If you do not take every word of these horoscopes into you with the utmost faith, you will die. Statistics bear this out. Simply scan the newspapers. You will find that an overwhelming majority of the people that die each week DID NOT read the Baron's horoscopes.
If your newspaper or your mom's website are interested in publishing the Baron's weekly prophetics, shoot this old guy an email at Dr.Coppockalypse@gmail.com. The Baron is also available for birthdays, weddings, funerals and orgies. Oh, and astrological consultations. There's that, too.

This reminded me of: "But my soul must be iron cause my fear is naked. I'm naked and fearless.-And my fear is nakeeeeeeeeed!" - Henry Rollins spoken word in Tool's song called Bottom.
