| These notes about artists who have contributed their time and talent to Bread & Roses, are based on internet resources. If you're aware of any changes to be made, or wish to suggest any star chart be included, please email me - thank you! Most charts here have Taurus and/or Sagittarius dominant and combine well with the Farina vision of community service. One point seems consistent - the make-up and temperament of these star charts balances the magnetic (Taurus/Scorpio) and the electric (Gemini/Sagittarius.) For those new to astrology, each of the twelve signs has thirty degrees. Those are divided into three segments of ten degrees each and referred to as decans. They are for interpretative notation. |
Odetta's melodic Taurus Moon, over Mimi's Sun, blends competitive and power visions. Mimi's Bread & Roses foundation gives Odetta an opportunity to express the soul nurturing spiritual rose essence for those sorely in need of support and compassion. Venus, the social planet ruler of Taurus, symbolizes the law of magnetic attraction, the bonds that hold the physical universe together. Odetta says, "We need as much putty, spit or glue as possible to bring us together. Only you can give of yourself. Oh, to help better the world through what we do." Richie Havens' Jupiter and Saturn (business planets) are in the first decan of Taurus, a mediumistic decanate implying the acquisition of magical powers through a professional masterpiece. The stage for the great work, co-created by Bread & Roses, allowed the audience to watch Havens' "unorthodox open tuning that enables him to play a variety of chord patterns beyond the reach of standard tuning." Bread & Roses continues, "He brings a quiet dignity and humanitarian sensibility to his performances that touches the deepest spiritual and emotional needs of his audience." Both Hoyt Axton and Kris Kristofferson have Venus in Taurus, for confident and dependable creative motivation. This is thought to be Orion's huge arm with a club, wielded so that obstacles crumble. Since Venus coordinates activity regarding The Bull, champions are valued as friends and allies ~ this kind of personal standard reinforces Farina's sense of equilibrium and refreshes the pool of resources that abound in Marin, California. Venus in Taurus seeks greater self-realization through profession and social commitment from a community viewpoint. I would be remiss should there be a failure to mention that Bonnie Raitt, Odetta and Kristofferson have precise conjunctions with the constellation of the Peacock @ 23 Capricorn, an extremely significant herald of success ~ Bruce Springsteen and many more share the benefits of this prosperous augury related to the 'Philosopher's Stone,' as only a step from achieving the alchemist's gold. Early sacred writings also use symbols of the rainbow, or a unicorn, universal images of uncompromised covenants. Text continued (includes Venus) MORE about Luna with Bread & Roses friends |
