Astrology Odes

I’m working on a poetic catalog for the fifteen Behenian Stars.  I’m more than half-way done with them, but only some of them are on the blog at the moment; the rest will come as those fixed stars come into position, I think.

• To Spica
• For Aldebaran
• For the Pleiades
• For Procyon
• For Alcyone
• For Cetus — the star Menkar, in the constellation Cetus, is associated with good luck, happiness, and finding lost things.
• For Perihelion
• For Mars in Exaltation — Mars is in exaltation at the 28th degree of Capricorn.
• For the Sun’s Exaltation — The sun is in exaltation in the 18-19th degrees of Aries.
• Hymn for the First Decan of Virgo

Odes of Modern Myth

Looking at the list below, you might think I’d never written any other kind of poetry besides Mythological hymns to pagan deities.  It’s not precisely true, but wow, did I find a lot of them tonight.  Many of these take the form of ‘psychological mythology’, addressing the god named, and describing them to some degree, and then using their attributes and mythos to explore how we might become more appropriately attuned to that energy.
