    Scorpio Icon Description from Brad Kronen's "Welcome to the Zodiac" Series

    Scorpio Icon Description

    From Brad Kronen’s “Welcome to the Zodiac” Series

    Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

    Photobucket


    (Very Hushed Whisper) "Is She a Scorpio?"
    (Very Hushed Reply) "Who?"
    (Impatient Hiss) "Whoopi Goldberg."
    (Annoyed Half Voice) "Why are you even asking?"
    (Full Voiced Indignant Summation) "Look at the mouth drop!!!!"


    This was me not only annoying my friend whom I went to see the movie "The Color Purple" back in the 80's with, but also fully disrupting the front and back rows next to us of the full house movie theater audience. But I will defend myself by ALWAYS being able to nail a Scorpio actor or actress simply by a paritcular facial gesture that I call the "mouth drop". An emotional expression that Scorpionic sculptor Auguste Rodin captures so painfully well in my favorite work of all time in this medium, "The Burghers of Calais".


    I highly recommend you listen to this 7 minute clip from the Rodin Museum in Philadelphia that explains how this piece came to be along with a full description of Rodin's intentions:
    http://avdream.bcc.edu:8080/ramgen/rodin/burghers.rm?usehostname


    The people of Calais openly rejected this piece stating that the sculpture did not depict the heroes from their town during the 100 Years War, but from the viewpoint of the Scorpio by allowing us to see this most emotionally vulnerable moment as these men express their genuine emotions facing Death itself but still moving forward knowing that their sacrifice will save their countrymen - nothing could be more brave or tragically heroic. Death is something that the Scorpio is inherently aware of throughout life, and how astounding that Rodin captures 6 very different but each very painfully real reactions of a human being facing his impending mortality! I personally see the Burgher holding the key, who from this angle is directly facing us as Rodin, himself, the man, the Scorpio.

    Why? Behold the mouth drop!

    I'm always surprised how many people interpret a Scorpio's behavior as cold or Un-emotional. How ironic, since I consider this the sign to fully take to heart the palette of deepest human emotions. The mouth drop stands out to me a mile away because this one small external muscular flattening and lowering of the corners of the mouth tells me that a Scorpio has now fully been swept away by the tsunami of emotions inside him or her; YET even though they are fully subservient to their deepest feelings it is only their lower face that flattens.

    Through their eyes at that critical moment one can see the actual raw naked soul which now gleams with the power of Life itself as it unflinchingly goes forward to bear the mantle of its fate.

    “After the Nuclear Holocaust, There will be Cockroaches, Cher, and………….SCORPIOS!”

    -B. Kronen, Astrologer and Biggest Fan of his own jokes

     

    We leave the etiquette manual for the Libran tea party behind us to delve to the deepest, darkest core of the human psyche and soul – Scorpio!  I consider Scorpio, along with Aquarius to be BY FAR the 2 most misunderstood signs in the zodiac.  Whereas Aquarius slips through the filing cabinet of categorization due to it’s quirkiness and “out there” qualities, Scorpio’s inherent intensity and understanding of power is misinterpreted; and (like Virgo) only their unevolved characteristics seem to be the only traits that come to mind: vindictiveness with a vengeance, jealousy that borders on the psychopathic, and a sex drive that only Caligula would seem to rival.

     

    Being ruled by the planetary ruler of the underworld, Pluto, the Scorpio is truly the most “hardcore” of signs, committing only to things and people if their core emotional selves respond in its entirety.  If there is ambivalence or doubt, the Scorpio simply will not bother. This “all or nothing” emotional approach is most definitely intense, but this makes the Scorpio the most loyal, steadfast and devoted of signs.  If a Scorpio is on your side, then he will ALWAYS be able to be counted on, no matter how life threatening the circumstances and People, if you want a secret not only kept, but kept to the grave, blab it to a Scorp! With that said, Scorpio is truly THE survivor of the zodiac – able to endure the very depths of Hell itself if they believe something is right and true in their emotional core. (refer to Brad’s self reference).

     

     

    Scorpio Fun Fact:

    It’s time to shed light on these children of the night and give them credit where it aptly fits.  Here’s a shocker, do you know what sign of the zodiac most of the Presidents of these United States were born under: it’s actually a tie between the 2 freaks of the zodiac – Aquarius and Scorpio! (The Scorp Prez’s:  Adams, Polk, Hayes, Garfield, T. Roosevelt, Harding)

     

    Surely a President of the United States can’t be THAT bad – so join me won’t you?  SCORPIO! Wednesday @ 8 PM

    Libra: The Perfect Partner of Charm or The Indecisively Imbalanced? Monday, June 29th, 2009 @ 8PM PST Two questions Brad has learned the hard way NOT to ask a Libran: “Where do you want to go for dinner?” “What movie do you want to see?” We emerge all spic and maybe a little too span from Virgo’s tidy realm and come upon the “Kings and Queens of Small Talk” - LIBRA! We have now reached the halfway mark of the zodiac where one turns from actions and interests based on solely the self and now incorporates “others” into the game plan. Libra rules the opposite house of the Ascendant, and the 7th house, or “Descendant” is concerned with partnerships, marriage and all one-on-one relationships in general. Now although I do say that Libras function best when they are in a stable, healthy relationship and although Libras come out of the womb with their wedding date and locale all ready chosen, this does not mean that they should lose any of their individuality by defaulting to “Honey, what do you think?” As a matter of fact, Brad heartily encourages Librans to be single for more than 4.5 minutes in order to cultivate their own Venusian gifts of natural charm, wit and effervescence! Libra Fun Fact: Referring to Brad’s jokingly (but not really) above mentioned “questions”, he is commenting on Libra’s tendency (more like state of being) to be indecisive with TRIVIAL matters. Saturn, the planet that rules judgement with any kind of large decisions be they moral, legal or otherwise is considered exalted, or works best in, the sign of The Scales, Libra. So bring your prettiest and hopefully not prissiest selves on Monday @ 8PM! **Libras are a lot more than just Gwyneth Paltrow’s swan neck and alabaster skin, check out Brad’s choice of icon for Libra in his “Welcome to the Zodiac” Photo Icon Series!

    Fate and Technical Glitches: Michael Jackson's Hubris of Perfection

    Fate and Technical Glitches:
    Michael Jackson's Hubris of Perfection

    Photobucket

    As a karmic astrologer, I try to emphasize that for many of us, NOTHING can be written off as merely haphazard coincidences.  I guess this now applies to being plagued with technical problems while on the air trying to give a talk radio show.

    On the evening of June 24th, 2009 I hosted my show which  focused on the sign of Virgo from my "Welcome to the Zodiac" Series.  Immediately upon starting the show, I had to make an on the air apology to the sign that strives for perfection - it seemed that I simply could NOT get into my own chatroom and therefore begged every Virgo's forgiveness for beginning their show in such an imperfect manner.)  This technical glitch had never happened before and subsequently never was resolved for the show's entirety that evening.  So instead of having the unevolved impatient side of my Gemini mind take over and bemoan such a nuisance, I told myself that since I could not see any of my viewers' questions and/or comments that this technical mishap would be seen as an opportunity I otherwise wouldn't have to expound upon some innately Virgoan themes.

    And the main example I used was a certain Virgoan named Michael Jackson............

    For those of you unfamiliar with that sign, in short, Virgos are the worry warts of the zodiac as well as one of the three "karmic" signs.  Those born under the karmic signs are meant or destined to have a life in service to others and the Virgoan does this by producing as close to "perfect" work as possible.  Because of their karmic need to serve, Virgos take their Mercurial fast and o so precise minds and strive to please their superiors by performing tasks that are teeming with details!  For MJ, this striving would result in a life long subconscious pursuit to please his superior who seemed never to be satisfied with his performances - his father.  I still am stunned whenever I see early Jackson 5 footage to realize that the band of brothers' lead singer with such a  full, rich and powerful voice as well as with the limber,naturally sleek dance moves is not only 9 years old, but a Virgo! While discussing famous people born under the sign of the Virgin, I stated that those Virgos who ended up being thrust into the spotlight of fame as a leading man or lady NEVER fully adjusted to this placement of constant attention nor were they ever comfortable there as well.  With that in mind, it's not a coindicence that Jacko's song of indignation written to the international press in the mid 80's called "Leave me Alone" was in essence proclaimed by another Virgo who wished the same sentiment 50 years earlier when Gretta Garbo famously coined the phrase "Ay Vont Too Bee Ahlohn" or in less forced dramatic intonation, "I Want To Be Alone."!

    Virgos identify themselves with their as close to perfect work as possible, and if this work is repeatedly not appreciated by their superior over time, the stress caused from never hearing those o so needed words of praise or appreciation will eventually affect their bodies and health.  Ironically the sign that rules the 6th house of health and daily regimen and who is THE most healthy usually by lifestyle and hygiene, tends to be the sign that also claims to have the most disastrous and ill forboding diseases known to man!

    Virgo is ruled by the planet of thought, Mercury, and when their thoughts are burdened with the stress of analyzing themselves incessantly as to why they are not getting rave reviews from their superiors then that constant mental self criticism ends up creating some of the greatest hypochondriacs on the planet! Every Virgo reading this piece has to admit that at some point in their life he or she was CONVINCED they were succumbing to something as rare as Histiocytic Necrotizing Lymphadenitis or were absolutely POSITIVE they were in the advanced stages of a disease as deadly as Mucopolysaccharidosis IV! 

    Jackson's meteoric fame as a child lead vocalist was a burden of responsiblity that weighed heavily enough in its own right, his father's lack of parental pride and praise only exacerbated this, but what I feel truly broke Michael Jackson's mental bank and would eventually take his life was the added weight of the world of having to always bear the realization that yes! this Virgo made an opus of detail rich work that was as close to perfection as humanly possible and that none of his labors afterwards would even be in the same vicinity of error free and adored by all Nirvana than his double album "Thriller".

    I remember being in high school gym class at the tail end of 1984 and blatantly showing facial expressions of disgust when I realized that the girls were doing aerobics to the newly released single "Wanna Be Starting Something" from the album that hit the charts way back in 1982 which Brad termed as "the record that will never die" Thriller.  It seemed as if EVERY song from that album was released as a hit single that would each in turn stay at number one for weeks on end that would each in turn delay the release of the subsequent song from said album so that at any given moment in 1984 there was ALWAYS a song from Thriller being played on the air! Pretty perfect if you ask me!

    But perfection, which for the Virgoan is their ultimate state of existence can also be their hubris once achieved because any work they do from that point afterwards will always pale in comparison. And right at the point when every possible ounce of popularity or exposure had been squeezed out of that warhorse of never ending Top 10 hits is when word spread  of Michael Jackson's extremely rare disorders, diseases and conditions of the skin and of his desperate attempts to remedy, rectify and eradicate them.

    Which leads us back to Brad's show on the evening of the 24th of June....After discussing the condensed details of the above I stated on the air "Michael Jackson does not suffer from any kind of rare disease or physical abnormality, he bears the burden of being a Virgo."

    A burden which he relinquished a mere 10 or so hours later - may that Virgo FINALLY get some much needed and well praised rest that he never seemed to find in his daily toils while on this plane of existence.

    Rest in Peace, Michael and May Perpetual Light Shine Upon You!

    Virgo: Detail Driven Analyst or Anal Retentive Criticizer?

    Virgo: Detail Driven Analyst or Anal Retentive Criticizer? Where: www. Blogradio.com When: Wednesday, June 24th @ 8PM PST “We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love.” -Mother Teresa, Humanitarian and Virgo When you walk into a stationary store, do your eyes immediately glaze over? At any given moment is there some kind of “list” on your person? Are the cans in your kitchen or pantry arranged alphabetically or worse, alphabetically and then by size delineation? Who are you kidding, you’re a VIRGO! We come out of that blinding spotlight of Leo’s still rubbing our eyes to come across a very neat and tidy place freshly scoured with Ajax and Bleach – the land of VIRGO! Virgo is the first of the 3 karmic signs (Scorpio and Pisces being the other 2) and if a person is born under one of the karmic signs, their life is to be one of service to others. Virgos know this all too well since they identify themselves with their perfect (what did I tell you, there is no such thing!!!! OK OK!) CLOSE to perfect precisely detailed work that although they are one of if not THE healthiest signs of the zodiac since natural and homeopathic medicines and a healthy regimen of daily life are under their domain, they will crumple like flies if they feel their work isn’t being appreciated or worse, if they don’t appreciate their boss! Virgo Fun Fact: The animal assigned to the domain of Virgo are domestic pets, or quite simply cats and dogs! So don’t even think I would bring a pet to a non-Virgoan veterinarian (it may take a bit of coaxing or dirty looks from your Vet’s receptionist, but you’ll get his or her birthday out of them sooner than later.) So bring YOUR own very special “list” and of course your OWN rubber gloves on Wednesday @ 8PM! (You think I would ever share mine??? SO unsanitary!) Brad Kronen www.

    Libras are extremists. Libras are radicals. Libras believe in anarchy.............all in the name of Peace.
    The Gemini in me revels when anything in life can be seen through the lens of duality, and for the Scales of Libra duality is so much more than Up/Down, High/Low.
    Libra takes duality and makes it hardcore!
    Being ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty and art, one would assume that the animal under Libra's domain would be some sugar coated prissy thing of a beast like a Toy Pekingese Puppy or a Unicorn. Not quite. Snakes, Lizards and any kind of small reptile like iguanas are Libra's animals. What's even more astounding is the sheer volume of Librans who actually OWN a python, gila monster, or boa constrictor as a pet!
    Venus is also the planet of harmony and of peace itself and true, it is best not to argue or Heaven offend fight or wrastle in front of a Libra - these coarse actions will offend their delicate sensibilities! BUT when it comes to the Peace of their world being threatened or blatant injustice, The Libran becomes a radical extremist on an almost militant level.

    *Mahatma Gandhi, a Libra, went to battle against both the imperialist British as well as the warring factions of India and pushed the envelope as far as humanly possible through the utilization of pacifism.

    *Eleanor Roosevelt, a Libra, upon learning early on in the war of the Nazi "Final Solution" would disturb the peace of not only her husband's frantic daily agenda as President but would vocally interrupt Congress on a regular basis petitioning that the United States pass as many emergency VISAS as possible to allow any/every European Jewish child to enter this country. A deaf ear was turned to her bombastic disruptions none the same.

    *Brigitte Bardot, a sex symbol and a Libra, who in the height of her attractive powers was likened to the goddess Venus herself, has risked her life on numerous occassions as well as has been imprisoned for disturbing the peace and breaking and entering - all in the name of animal rights.

     

    *Gordon Matthew Sumner (aka Sting) rock icon and a Libra, horrified by the junta mass murders in Latin America not only became a major force for peace activism in defense of the victims from that area but also wrote the song “They Dance Alone” describing the peaceful but powerful act of retaliation Latin American women would take by holding photographs of their missing husband/son/brother and dancing with them in front of government municipal buildings.


    To me, Libra's dualities are tipped into blissful balance by John Lennon. Born not only with a Libran Sun and an Aries Ascendant but his chart ruler, Mars the ruler of Aries in the sign of Libra, he made "Peace" much more than a pretty idea, he made it a state of constant action by using it as a battle cry through his declaration of war on war itself. When the Fab Four dissolved, this Libran did not bask in his luxuries and choose to be passive and lazy, he put both himself and his family at constant risk by organizing and attending "sit ins" imploring the end of the Vietnam War. By the sheer fact that he was a Beatle, throngs of media and press took note of these disrupitions of the peace in the name of peace, making John's actions global news.
    Jumping from that scale of extremes, Lennon's 7th house ruler which is naturally ruled by Libra was in the sign of Libra at his birth. The 7th house is the house of marriage and idealistic love and John's marriage to Aquarian Yoko Ono is the closest example of "true love" I can think of. You would be hard pressed to think of a couple either personally or in fame who simply ADORED each other like John and Yoko did. EVERY piece of film footage shows them not just in their own little world being lovebirds, to me they seemed to be in a state of romantic bliss when they were in each other's presence.
    One of my all time favorite Lennon songs is simply titled "O Yoko" where he'll sing about being in the bathroom shaving and his thoughts then being flooded with the words "O Yoko, my love will turn you on." Pure and unadulterated romantic sentiment!
    Lastly, the 7th house is also the house of 1 on 1 partnerships and the 1 on 1 song writing team of Lennon and McCartney is rivaled by none. As John was balanced in love with Libra's perfect partner of Aquarius, so too were his artistic endeavors in a perfect place when he and his fellow air sign, Gemini Paul McCartney would write songs together. McCartney himself once said in an interview that John would "restore equilibrium" whenever he would get stuck writing a song. One of the best examples of this was when Paul was in a state of impatient frustration writing the song "Getting Better All The Time". He was plunking out the line "I admit it's getting better." to which Lennon harmoniously balanced off with "It couldn't get much worse."))

    John Lennon took his Libran sensibilities and applied them to the best as one human in this world possibly could on both ends of the scales by being both the enemy of war and the lover of love and musical beauty.)
