Yesterday President Trump’s press secretary Sean Spicer banned CNN and the New York Times from the daily press briefings. Trump has long had a contentious relationship with the mainstream media that he calls “fake news,” and his communications staff coined the term “alternative facts” to describe claims that do not fit the traditional definition of “true.” […]

(Astrology Explored) A Lunar Eclipse in the early hours of Saturday February 11 follows the Friday February 10, 2017 Full Moon. It’s symbolism should make us all sit up and take notice. In the cosmic dance of the heavenly bodies, … Continue reading →
February is a fast and urgent month with Mars, Venus and Uranus in fiery, furious Aries. Mars in his own sign is rather unbridled, Venus in her opposite sign is not doing her usual harmony, sweetness and light thing and Uranus is spitting sparks. Somewhere in your life there’s probably a bit of a turmoil or drama. But frankly, this whole past 12-month has proved to be a challenge for those of us with tree-hugging, peace-loving, rose-tinted spectacle wearing tendencies. There’s a lot of ugly out there. But astrology does offer us some ideas of how to handle the rough stuff. Jupiter, the planet […]

I just watched an interesting piece by Vox on the growing rise of admiration of Vladmir Putin by Republicans in the US. (Youtube video below). In 2014 70% of Republicans disapproved of Vladmir Putin. By July 2016, Putin’s favorability ratings had spiked so that only 10% of Republicans disapproved of him. Putin is known as […]

Donald Trump has been on TV since 2004, sitting at a big desk with the stars and stripes behind him. He wasn’t the president then, just pretending to be a boss on the reality TV show The Apprentice. He looked menacing and said, “You’re fired”, and rewarded contestants if they were “good”, and appeared to be in charge of something important. Now he has stepped through the screen and will soon — if all goes according to plan — be sitting in the real Oval Office, making real decisions that affect the lives of millions of real people around the world. (Neptune […]

A reader reminded me about what I wrote about Donald Trump back in June: Astrologers often cast a chart for the moment that the Sun returns to its place at birth in order to get a picture of an individual’s coming year. Trump’s Solar Return chart shows an extremely fortunate conjunction of the Sun and Venus, with Venus […]

My friend Anton D’Abreu from Cycles of History has very kindly sent this chart analysis of transits to the chart of the United States on the day after the election. The Sibly chart (Koch) is used.

No matter what you think about the candidates for president in the USA, the campaign has given rise to some barnstorming feminist political speeches. It feels like a real breakthrough — a change in the weather. In astrology, we have a “nasty woman”. She’s called Black Moon Lilith, and she’s strutting around in Scorpio this year. She’s been here since May, and she won’t leave until February. Lilith in Scorpio seems pretty powerful. She’s even been given a voice by Senator Elizabeth Warren, whose speech about nasty women made some of us fall around laughing. “Nasty women are tough, nasty women are […]
