Well, foot-in-mouth disease has struck again for you Robin, as the

post about the MA you are referring to was written by Terese

Hamilton, who I'm sure you would otherwise fawn all over (as would

I!).

I wish i had a dollar for every reading I've received over my

lifetime. Reading my chart will prove nothing, other than that you

can " read my chart. " But, before I give you my NN position, you have

to specify which sidereal zodiac you are using. Fagan? Fagan-

Allen? Lahiri? (At least with tropical there is only ONE Zero

point.)

Again, if you want to belive that you are the King of France, that is

fine with me. If you want to engage in astrology, which is a

mathematical (and thus finite) pursuit, you should first disavow

yourself of such belief systems as they may cloud your otherwise good

judgment.

I'm sure it was more than just Ed K that has made your day unpleasant.
