Podcast: 2018 Year Ahead
I spent a fun afternoon with my chum fellow astrologer Sally Kirkman last week talking about how the planets look in 2018 for your Sun or Rising sign. We realised that chatting together led us to some interesting insights — including the notion that it’s going to be quite a year for Aquarians as well as Capricorns, and that we’re going to see a lot of Chiron action. We enjoyed ourselves so much that I think we’ll be doing it again, starting at the spring equinox. See if you can figure out who’s the Scorpio and who’s the Pisces from […]

Carillion: Death of a Frankenstein
It’s hard to overstate the importance of a company called Carillion to the British government and the British economy. Well, it collapsed today. Like its cannibalised name, Carillion is a corporation made up of the caracasses of other corporations. It was stitched together in 1999 to take advantage of the then-Labour government’s crush on the private sector. Carillion was hived off as a “service” arm from a much older construction company called Tarmac, created in 1903. This is how it describes itself on its website. “Carillion is a leading integrated support services business. We employ around 43,000 people and operate in […]

Astrology of Now: It’s All About That Base
Between January 14 and 17, there will be so many planets stacked up in one corner of the sky, that you might expect the whole cosmos to tilt with the weight of them. Moon, Sun, Mercury, Pluto, Saturn, Venus and the Black Moon Lilith will all be in the sign of the Goat-Snake, Capricorn. That’s a lot of midwinter — and there has not been a line-up like this in a single sign in many years. During those three days, the Moon will conjunct each planet in Capricorn, one after the other — and because Mars-Jupiter, Neptune, Chiron and Uranus […]

Astrology of Now: Solstice
“Integrity is doing the right thing, even when no one is watching.” — CS Lewis The Sun, our own mighty star, enters the Cardinal sign of the Goat-Fish tomorrow just before 4.30pm GMT on December 21, and so we enter deep winter. This is the Solstice — the longest night and shortest days. And this one is special because the old teacher, Saturn, has returned to his home sign for the first time since 1991, and he greets the Sun at 0° Capricorn. As I mentioned in my previous post, this has not happened since 1664, so this Solstice holds a […]

What Astrologers Are Saying About Saturn in Capricorn
It’s been a long, strange trip around the Zodiac for Saturn over the last 27 years, but at last he’s come home. Yesterday, he arrived with the dust of the road clinging to his clothes, in Capricorn, the sign which, by tradition, he rules. Perhaps, he heaved a sigh of relief to be back in this cool, winter palace. He left this place in 1991, and like Odysseus coming back to Ithaca, Saturn returns to find his house topsy-turvy in 2017. He has a few of years to sort things out — until 2020. But he is strong here, he […]

Astrology of Now: The Darkest Moon
Yesterday morning, you could see the Moon like a great grey coin in the dawn sky, reflecting just a tiny sliver of light. Today she is already in the sign of the centaur, Sagittarius, where she will be utterly obscured at around 7.30 am (UT) on December 18 (tomorrow) when she is in conjunction with the Sun. Five hours later (around 2.10pm), the Moon meets Saturn, staggering to the end of his tour in Sagittarius. Less than half an hour later, Lady Luna steps into Capricorn, her fall. So the energy of the Moon in Sagittarius is here now — we […]
