Well, it’s September, and with the falling leaves and the pumpkin spice comes the time when I start shuffling things around — don’t ask why. I don’t have a good reason for doing this every fall; just know that if there is going to be a shift in direction around here, it will happen close to Mabon. That just seems to be my way.
I have spent the last couple of years having a very public karmic shift in direction. It’s probably all that transit Pluto tap-dancing on my North Node. Earlier this summer, I experienced my Mars return and, with it, a huge surge of energy (I laughed when I had a look back at my chart). The Mercury retrograde in Cancer did a big number on me as well, although it was a VERY GOOD TIME for me; lots of things that I thought I would never see again (mostly books that I had to leave behind when I left a miserable and manipulative relationship in 2016) came back to me. This made my heart happy and, in part, greatly helped push this shift.
Since that retrograde, I have found myself returning to the things I used to do in my practice that I put down when they seemed too simple and I wanted to advance. One of those things is going back to my old chart style. Another is the Pythagorean letter-number key. We parted ways in the 90s when I discovered Chaldean and Vedic numerology, but lately we have been meeting for quiet dates. I think we’re officially seeing each other again because I created 78numbers.com, and in order to keep it simple, I went with the Pythagorean key. Chaldean and I still see each other on the side, and one day we may all be a throuple, but for now, the site just contains the one alphabet key.
78numbers was born out of the ashes of Codex Numerorum, which, while it suited me greatly, was terribly overwhelming for beginners. Since beginners are most of the online spiritual community and 99.9% of the numerology online revolves around the (Western) Pythagorean key, it was pointless to keep moving forward with the colossus of a web app that Codex Numerorum had become. 78numbers is an actual website and, at present, does not have a membership option. It is 100% free to use. You only pay a small fee if you want to keep the chart that you cast.
I used this site to speed up my chart calculations at the fair over the weekend before it got too hot to use my phone, and I had to stick it in the cooler for the rest of the day. The response was very good! Those that I couldn’t read for due to time constraints were referred to the site. I haven’t done a full and proper roll-out…..is this my roll-out? Naaah. Maybe? I’ll do a big splashy over on Patreon once I’ve got my dusty old podcast rebranded.
Anyway, that’s all I’ve got for now. It’s time to go to the gym and shake some o’ the lard off me arse! Everyone, as you were!
