- Japan ? Aries Ingress Chart 2013

- Japan Eathquake ? New Powerful 7.1 Aftershock Shakes Japanese East Coast.
Poor old Japan. Just clearing up from the last huge quake and then a large aftershock comes along. At the time of writing, there was a Tsunami expected of between 1-2 metres due to hit the East coast of Japan. Seeing the earthquake chart, it is easy...
- The Moon And Intuition: Key For Astrological Prediction?

Back from Japan Trip!
Wow! An exhausting, but very valuable 3 weeks in Japan.
I went to Tokyo, then Osaka, then, probably the highlight of the trip, Koyasan, then Osaka, Yokohama and Tokyo.
Koyasan is the headquarters of the Japanese tantric Buddhist, Shingon School. I stayed there at a shukubo, a temple lodging for pilgrims and did Shingon jukai, taking the Buddhist precepts and then the kechien kanjo tantric initiation.
Very intense experience, instead of a tourist, I got to be a pilgrim! The picture is of the Daito, the Great Stupa, at Koyasan.
