Learning from Spain’s Good and Bad Example

The current Spanish constitution came into effect in 1978. This constitution’s Article 47 guarantees the right to be housed! On the one hand a great idea, on the other hand not something enforceable. Article 47 obligates the government to provide affordable housing, yet isn’t a Spanish citizen’s individual right. Building is in the administrative competence […]

On The Classroom of a Black Cat and a Witch

I stumbled upon Kuroneko to Majo no Kyōshitsu (黒猫と魔女の教室)/ The Classroom of a Black Cat and a Witch. This is a still very new anime, that features witchcraft divided into categories according to the signs of the zodiac. I love this concept. Yet I can’t recommend this anime! On the one hand because of the […]

Good News on the Issue of Microplastics

Nowadays microplastics are found in soil, in the sea, in the human body, and even in the air. So microplastics is a big field of research and due to its importance also of meticulous scrutiny. Contamination has to be avoided and so the already existing literature on this field of research recommends to wear gloves […]

On the Astrologer of the MI5

When I had looked up what meanwhile is known about Erik Jan Hanussen, I stumbled upon an article on Luis de Wohl. Erik Jan Hanussen somehow got the reputation to be Hitler’s astrologer, although he then certainly wouldn’t have ended in the way he did. So a Spanish Countess thought that Hitler’s enemies should also […]

On the Implicit Association Test

The Implicit Association Test (IAT) got already in 1998 suggested by three fools, who wanted to prove that many humans are much more racist than they know. The IAT meanwhile is rampant as a part of anti-discrimination trainings in enterprises, offices, and universities. So it was time to challenge the theory, on which the IAT […]

On the Reichstag Fire

I somehow had to mention the Reichstag Fire in my last astrology blog post. The Reichstag Fire was an important step in the Nazi’s power grab. It got infamously predicted by the astrologer Erik Jan Hanussen. But this guy was a showman, who also held seances and hypnotized people on stage. Erik Jan Hanussen was […]

On Cliff Goldstein’s TV Show

I for another time stumbled upon a religious tv show. It’s named Cliff, adopted from the USA and consists of a Cliff Goldstein (actually Clifford R. Goldstein) playing a fool and teaching Creationism. He’s not shy of making a fool of himself to the purpose to fool you. I don’t believe that he really believes […]

The Other Point of View on Twentieth Century Astrologers

Elsa from the ELSAELSA blog divides history according to Pluto in the zodiac signs. Pluto upon his discovery on February, 18th in 1930 was retrograde and in Cancer. Astrology was mixed with esoteric, parapsychology, occultism, and whatever. Erik Jan Hanussen forecast the Reichstag Fire in a seance. Astrologers tried to cope with Pluto somehow and […]
