Books of the Southwest presents THE HERMES IN BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY’S happening in art and reality to break open a wrong. The world-altering artists are in full view. They are always necessary when freedom and spiritual abundance have been closed off and not 'allowed' to be spoken, as Homer showed in his epic song, rumor holds over the eternal artistic voice until it can be internally known. In brief, Penelope is the only one who speaks it and moves on. It started with a concocted lie about John Mayer brewing from 2008 from a young plagiarist in the music industry with hired marketers and publicists from a capitalist's money.

Play Ball.


The years around 577 B.C. is the only known Uranus, Neptune, Pluto Conjunction and that singular moment in cosmic history also marked the beginnings of the world’s philosophies and religions as shown by scholar Richard Tarnas in his book Cosmos and Psyche, thus making that the opening moment, the source and seed conjunction of our current spiritual and deeply transformative sextiles of all three planets that are now perfectly aligned 60˚apart from each other. This is also blooming from another powerful seed alignment of those 3 planets that was strongly formative and expressive from the 1960s.

The last time Pluto was sextile Neptune in Aquarius and Aries--as they are now, and also in the same houses--Michelangelo was painting The Last Judgment in 1536-1541, with Pluto then meeting at 5˚24 Aquarius and Neptune 5˚24 Aries. Now that alignment is also with the added intensifying “judgment” aspect of the planet Saturn conjuncting with the Spiritual Neptune at the exact beginning of the zodiac, 0˚ Aries.

The day after the American Civil War began in 1861, Neptune entered 0˚ Aries. This exact movement and alignment happened again for the first time since then in 2025 on 30th of March the day after the solar eclipse leading also into this Uranus-Neptune-Pluto with Neptune at its center at 0˚ Aries. This is also the degree to which Neptune will retrograde to completely conjunct Saturn in the coming months of 2025-2026.

Michelangelo painted my first and last name on the entrance and back altar wall of the Sistine, encompassing his ceiling which is also an exposition of Jacob’s feminine prophecy from the Hebrew Bible’s Genesis 49:10. Above the entrance to the Chapel he painted the prophecy of the name ‘Shiloh ‘with the female wearing Iris’s (the female messenger of the gods) rainbow, the promise.

On the back wall, he painted The Last Judgment. My last name ‘Richter’ means “judge” in German. From the Hebrew Bible to the Papal Seat of the Vatican, my name has surrounded every conclave and been represented in the painted heavens above them.

Now these exact things that Michelangelo prophesied are written in the cosmos at this moment: 

“Shiloh” is a Civil War battle, (one of the bloodiest, wherein the most lives perished on American ground, over 65,000 men’s lives were given to the conflict). 

As Neptune is sextile Pluto and in the same houses as it was as Michelangelo painted The Last Judgment and as Saturn has moved into that position, arrived of this Saturn Neptune Conjunction begun May 2025, and becoming more distinct to exactness in February 2026, also written in the cosmos is the name “Richter.”
