Toni Morrison and Black Moon Lilith

by  • 

I’ve been thinking about the American writer Toni Morrison today, the day after she died, and remembering her book Beloved, which won her the Pulitzer Prize, and is considered by most critics to be her masterpiece. Beloved tells the story — in densely poetic language and imagery — of a haunting. But the ghost is a toddler’s, the ghost of a child murdered by her mother so that she cannot be taken into slavery. These are Sethe, the mother’s thoughts, as she kills her child, named only Beloved, to save her. “And if she thought anything, it was No. No. […]

Your Month Ahead Podcast: July 22-August 23

by  • 

The astrology podcast that puts the month ahead into context. (I think we can all look forward to some fun times.) And, maybe just as importantly, takes a look back at what’s been happening in the previous 30 days, so we can all learn how to read the signs. Late July and August look pretty fiery, a dramatic change from the swirling waters of Cancer that we’ve just passed through. And Mars in Leo may finally get his mojo on too. There’s some really lucky cosmic energy coming up in the next few weeks, so be sure not to miss […]

Glass Skin

by  • 

Until last week, I’d never heard of it either — “glass skin”; skin so luminous, transparent and flawless that it might be sculpted from glass. Apparently, it’s the “latest beauty trend”.  The marketers of certain cosmetics can hear the kerching of cash tinkling into tills across the globe. Although these days, money changes hands silently, sliding from one account to another with invisible efficiency, so perhaps its more of a slither than a kerching. Glass skin is achieved — apparently — with a 10-step cleansing routine first made popular in Korea, and spread through social media. And there’s the key […]

The Revolution Has Arrived: Women’s World Cup

by  • 

Oh the glory. The women’s game is beautiful indeed. It’s taken one and a half nodal cycles, 28 solar cycles, two and a quarter Jupiter cycles, and not quite one full Saturn cycle for the Women’s World Cup to finally go truly global. With a worldwide audience of a billion, we can safely say that women’s soccer has arrived in the collective consciousness at last.  And the astrology is fascinating. The inaugural Women’s World Cup match took place in Guangzhou, China on November 16, 1991 at 20.45 local time. It’s a watery chart with Cancer Rising and the Moon in […]

Your July Monthly Horoscopes

by  • 

Your July Monthly Horoscope is ready for collection if you click here. It’s quite the month ahead — especially for Cancerians, of course, who have their birthdays plus an eclipse, Capricorns, who have an eclipse of their own, Leos who have a Mercury Retrograde. Or maybe it’s more intense for Aries and Libra, who’ll be getting those eclipses across such important angles? There’s also an interesting extra in here for Pisces and Libra, both of whom may profit from some special help.

A Few Reasons Why Jupiter’s Not Always Fabulous

by  • 

A reader wrote to me: “I am supposed to have Jupiter in my first house of Sag all year but it’s been just awful!” And asked me why this was so. Here is my response. This is a good question. 1. We tend to over-egg the whole luck thing with Jupiter in an attempt to look on the bright side, and forget that above all Jupiter magnifies. So in your first house he can make you somehow “larger”. This has a good side. Do you want to be noticed? Or be pregnant? But it also can go the other way. […]

Monthly Podcast: June 21-July 22

by  • 

We ended up in Sally’s home recording the latest podcast for Cancer month. Previously, we tried to meet in London and record outside as we are at the peak of summer but, in the UK, heat-wave weather it is not. In fact, we got rained on. What we did discover was a new ‘home’ for our latest venture together – astrology workshops. Our first astrology event will take place on Saturday 7th December, 2019 in Covent Garden (book the date in your diary). Here we talk eclipses, Cancerians and Mercury Retrograde…

Astrology of Now: Into the Red Zone

by  • 

“Because we focused on the snake, we missed the scorpion.” Proverb from Egypt If you happen to have any planets or important angles between 17° and 22° in just about any sign, you will be feeling a mighty pull of astrology this week and next. But the astrology is so strong that every one of us who heeds the zeitgeist, will witness something. This is a season of tension. First of all, there’s that tough knot in Capricorn — South Node 17°, Saturn 19° and Pluto 22°. This unforgiving combination has been transforming the lives of many over the past […]
