Letter to a minority astrologer reflecting on recent fall of Steven Forrest.
Hi Stormie, As waveforms- which we technically are as proton beings of mostly probabilistic electron clouds , we are the literal and metaphysical embodiment of our astrology.

As waveforms- which we technically are as proton beings of mostly probabilistic electron clouds , we are the literal and metaphysical embodiment of our astrology.
What gives us very real free will, is our speech and language. thoughts are versions of thou oughts- from being our brothers’ keepers.
Forrest uses language in his books that reflects traditional astrology’s very paternalistic language. It’s no wonder this story has finally surfaced- things stifled, once the filters fall, always come out. And the sky timing was of course perfect.
He is part of a bigger picture naturally- and of a story that starts out in utero. mom’s subconscious responses to those who don’t look or sound like her and other family- along with elevated breath and heart rate- the third trimester fetus records.
We all know companionship takes many forms,so his justification for the kkk “to protect widows” is particularly painful. this statement reflects a pogrom of punishing her too- as they murdered her lover more often than not.
and did you know royalty never raises a hand or speaks sharply to their children- they punish and maim their beloved servants and then immerse them in a rigid world of losses with few ways of healing which is why royalty today is so FUBAR (F*cked up beyond all recognition).
As a mystic dedicated to repackaging and reframing- i almost always can find a silver lining- but not in these stories. stories which keep on reoccurring- are meeting specific (inculcated) needs.
i write essays on what a repackaged world looks like in my “souk kingdom” essays. because they are unapologetically inclusive i don’t specifically address friction between those who look different from their image in a mirror. I only speak to what i want more of which is one where there’s mutual dignity and respect has multiple opportunities to be earned.
respect is when we look back again on another- hopefully with a sense of being impressed somehow. it’s not a given. It is earned.
as far as the kkk goes, Maybe community programs who help fix the widow’s house and heavy tasks is about as close as i can get. and sure let them wear dress up in poufy white protective suits so everyone can see how hard they worked as they get dirtied from their efforts. Then they can all go have a bubbly libation afterwards.
as a chart progresses, our natal MC eventually gets to the 12th house cusp. then all our secrets do become public. that’s where my MC is now- i’m finally coming out myself.
As a 12th house Neptunian, SF didn’t say much good in fact referred to us as delusional. with my neptune conjunct nn and jupiter all in scorpio, he isn’t entirely wrong either. lol
warm blessings,
Jennifer wyman-clemons
Shame comes from those who judge. Being ashamed is when we displease those we l’Ove from our actions we regret. If everything we do is exactly according to the way our language guides our stars, all can be forgiven- even Steven. He’s someone still stuck in a well of ignorance.

We have officially crossed the August 12 Leo Solar Eclipse, and now I want us to pay attention to what it kicked up. In astrology, Leo eclipses have traditionally been associated with people who occupy highly visible positions, leaders, celebrities, royalty, public figures, and those whose influence places them at the center of a community. We have already seen this symbolism reflected around the eclipse period, from world leaders and major political stories commanding attention to the astrology community experiencing the kick up of Steven Forrest, a deeply influential astrologer, teacher, author, and public figure within our field. This has been most painful for me and for many of us! I think this is an important reminder that eclipses do not have to be understood as causingevents. Instead, astrologically, we watch what becomes illuminated, accelerated, or brought into greater collective focus around them. Leo places particular emphasis on leadership, legacy, visibility, and the people whose presence has made an impact.
As we move through August 16–17, the story continues to develop. Mars square Neptune can expose something that was hidden, misunderstood, idealized, or simply not visible before, while Mercury trine Saturnhelps us become practical about what we now know. Additional information may emerge, serious conversations may happen, and decisions, documentation, plans, or official announcements can begin giving structure to something that previously felt uncertain. At the same time, Venus forms beautiful connections with Uranus and Pluto, creating an encouraging current for relationships, creativity, money, collaboration, and unexpected opportunities. There is movement here, but we don’t necessarily have the entire story yet. This is also beautiful territory for the work we do inside Venus Reset, particularly if this period is stirring questions around relationships, receiving, self-worth, softness, desire, or allowing yourself to create something different.
Then the energy begins to ground. The Sun enters Virgo on August 22, followed by Mercury entering Virgo on August 25, and suddenly the question changes from “What is developing?” to “Okay, what do we actually do with it?” Virgo brings us back to work, school, health, routines, organization, unfinished business, necessary repairs, and the practical details of everyday life. This is where we begin taking everything August has stirred and giving it a workable structure. We don’t need perfection, we need something useful, sustainable, and capable of supporting where we’re headed next.
And then, we arrive at our next major turning point: the Pisces Lunar Eclipse on August 28. I’m saving that conversation for our next edition because this eclipse deserves its own space. For now, watch what is moving, what is becoming visible, and what is beginning to take tangible form. We are still inside the story, and we haven’t met all of August yet. I’ll meet you again at the Pisces eclipse, where we’ll look at what this final chapter of the Virgo–Pisces eclipse story is asking us to see, feel, and release.
With so much love, Stormie Grace ✨
