Astrology of Now: The Game’s Up

Well, mendacity, greed and cruelty won last night’s unpopularity contest. That is the Conservative party won the UK general election — in England and Wales. It was also a victory for the Saturn-Pluto conjunction — a conjunction that means The End, as discussed in this post. The UK will now leave the European Union quickly, […]

What Astrologers Are Saying About The UK December Election

What a lousy election. What a lousy choice. Still, there’s always astrology to ding around with while the old structures crumble around our ears during this Pluto-Saturn cheek-to-cheek. A Void of Course Moon in Gemini on the night means, traditionally, it ain’t goin’ nowhere — nothing will come of it. Furthermore, Saturn in Capricorn will […]

Podcast: Your Month Ahead, Nov 22-Dec 22

Although — or maybe because — we recorded this on the first frosty day of November, this episode should warm the cockles of your heart. The big event this coming month is, of course, the move by bounteous Jupiter from Sagittarius to Capricorn. We decided to take the time to make sure we had a quick chat about what this means for every single sign. But we also managed to squeeze in some talk of Taylor Swift, Alfonso Cuaron — two magnificent Sagittarians — and what on earth was going on with that Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio last month!

Astrology of Now: This Transit of Mercury

This afternoon, at around 4pm GMT, the little planet of speed, insight, commerce and travel, dances across the face of the Sun. With the right equipment, you’ll be able to see it. And I think it’s astrologically significant too. Mercury’s transit to the Sun happens 14 times this century — and only in Taurus or Scorpio. This is the axis of the material vs the hidden, the object and its shadow, procreation and death, sex and power, ownership and enslavement. Last time, Mercury retrograded in Scorpio was 2012 and 2013 — but last time he performed this particular dance in […]

The Asteroid of Love Stories, Fairy Tales and the Soul’s Journey

Once upon a time, a long, long time ago, in a country far away, a girl of breath-taking beauty lived with her family. Her two older sisters were “successfully’ married, to wealthy, middle-aged men, but her father was perplexed. Who was good enough to marry his darling youngest, Psyche? He went to the oracle which told him something which broke his heart. “On mountain peak, O King, expose the maid For funeral wedlock ritually arrayed. No human son-in-law (hope not) is thine, But something cruel and fierce and serpentine; That plagues the world as, borne aloft on wings, With fire […]

Astrology of Now: Turmoil

There’s an awful lot of churn right now. You can see it on the streets of Santiago, Hong Kong, La Paz and Barcelona; in the British Parliament and American Congress. And in Kurdistan where “confusion now hath made his masterpiece.” People are in a froth. There’s shouting. And the way forward is not clear. You may find this is also true in your own life. Even if you yourself have the utmost clarity; people around you may be in a flap, a flurry, a fritz — or very stuck. I am finding that a lot of people are confused and/or depressed. […]
