Tonight's Planet Waves FM is ready. It's been quite a week. I was up early this morning looking out my window with a sense that we are living in another world; that something has changed (and this was associated with last week's political events). I go into that feeling and a few others.

The new Planet Waves FM is ready, recorded today in New York. I discuss the power of witness, and propose that the problem we face in the world right now is not a political problem but a social one.

In the new Planet Waves FM, which I'm posting for the New Moon in Aquarius, I make a call to conscience on the presidential impeachment. In the second segment, I talk about methods for ascertaining the truth of a news-related matter, framing it as a spiritual quest of a certain kind.

This edition covers the Sun's ingress into Aquarius, a detailed reading of the impeachment chart, a “where we are at” technology check-in based on the work of the McLuhans, and a discussion about sex in the disembodied age.

As we pass through the epicenter of the Saturn-Pluto conjunction, I'm a little pensive and reflective in today's Planet Waves FM.

Tonight's Planet Waves FM is the last before Friday's lunar eclipse and the conjunction of Saturn and Pluto.

I've got a program for you tonight — featuring Ram Dass and the Grateful Dead and some astrology. It's a long show because I've included a 90-minute talk by Ram Dass, at the end, and a good bit of music. So this is one of those shows you can hang out with.

Tonight's program focuses on Mercury stationing direct in Scorpio, which occurs on Wednesday. Just ahead of that, Mars enters Scorpio. Think of the syntax of that: the motivation precedes the decision. Let this astrology influence you at its own pace, probably a little slower than you would proceed otherwise.

Tonight's Planet Waves FM explores the Taurus Full Moon conjunct Vesta. I develop Vesta themes throughout the program, particularly in Tantra Studio in the 4th segment.

Tonight's Planet Waves FM circles around and dives into the current retrograde of Mercury in Scorpio. Did any astrology fan in the world miss how the retrograde began just as the U.S. House of Representatives was voting on the rules for the presidential impeachment? First I discuss the retrograde from the personal angle, and then I expand to the political.

I'm going to let tonight's extended program speak for itself, though here's a basic map of the territory: I spend a lot of time circling around the Scorpio New Moon, which takes place at about 11:38 pm ET tonight.

Tonight's Planet Waves FM explores some possible implications of Mercury retrograde conjunct Pallas, the asteroid of law and politics. I ponder why more political observers (many of whom are baseball fans) seem not to want to live in a world where there are rules and umpires and a fair game.

I have Planet Waves FM early for you this week. It's the Full Moon edition, though I start with a brief discussion of the situation in Syria as relates to Turkey. Then I size up the Full Moon. Then I give a presentation I've been wanting to do for years, which involves the definitions of liberal and conservative, and how modern politics mangles them.

In this week's Planet Waves FM, I continue exploring the national situation in the United States, including the pending impeachment and the personal astrology of Pres. Trump.

As for tonight's extended program — extended mostly by music — I describe in some detail the astrology of the imminent presidential impeachment. With a little help from Mark Zuckerberg (not a lot, just a little), I put us on the map of virtual reality/augmented reality and consider the impact on what we're about to experience.

In tonight's edition of Planet Waves FM, I read the equinox chart, and harken the end of Jupiter square Neptune and the beginning of Saturn conjunct Pluto.

In tonight's edition of Planet Waves FM, I focus on Chiron in Aries and the question of self-actualization. What is it? Where did it go, and how do I get in on the action?

Tonight's edition of Planet Waves FM explores the significance of the Virgo train making an opposition to Neptune, one planet at a time.
