Hi Folks, It seems to be quiet on The Inner Wheel but the reality is that I’ve been going through one of my busiest times ever, both with readings and classes. As we are now heading toward the dark of the year I thought it would be a good time to update. First, vocal […]

December Is A Battleground
Last night, the UK Parliament voted in favour of bombing ISIS in Syria (10.16pm, December 2, London.). And in so doing they showed what democracy is about. There were passionate, well-argued speeches on both sides — but not by either leader. Both Cameron and Corbyn seemed lightweight and political in comparison to Alec Salmond, David Davis and Caroline Lucas against the airstrikes, Margaret Beckett and Dan Jarvis for the strikes, and above all shadow foreign secretary Hilary Benn, in favour of air-strikes and against his own leader’s position. Benn put the government to shame, and made a coherent, impassioned moral case for intervention. In […]

Uranus full of surprises – even astronomers say so!
Uranus IS the planet of surprise and sudden changes in paradigms, so it was fun to see this article posted on Facebook by my friend Shelley Ackerman: University of Arizona astronomer Erich Karkoschka … believes that Uranus’s southern hemisphere rotates in a way never before seen in gas giants. A gas planet’s thick atmosphere, filled with clouds, […]

December Horoscopes
The holiday season promises to be charged with emotions this year, with a Full Moon on Christmas Day, and the Moon and Jupiter embracing on New Year’s Eve. But before then, mid-December looks a bit sticky, as Mars, the god of war, clashes first with the Lord of Underworld, Pluto, and then with the Lord of the Sky, Uranus. This looks like war. However, Mars is in Libra — the sign of diplomacy. Remember for example that John Lennon and Mahtma Gandhi have this placement. Mars in Libra is a warrior for peace, and this December his hand is strengthened […]

Astrology of Now: Jupiter in Virgo, Saturn in Sagittarius, Neptune in Pisces
With Jupiter’s move into Virgo this summer, and Saturn’s move into Sagittarius, we are seeing a shift of emphasis into the mutable signs. Neptune and Chiron, also both slow-moving, are already in Pisces. This creates a T-square pattern — at least by sign if not by exact degree. The strongest part of this pattern is a right-angle or square aspect between Saturn and Neptune. This becomes exact on November 26, and then in June and September next year. Meanwhile, Jupiter in Virgo will also square Saturn next spring. This means this T-square will never lock into an exact aspect, but Saturn […]

Astrology of Now: Ready To Catch The Wave
Neptune goes direct November 18, 16.30GMT. 7’01 Pisces Salt water is sucked backwards over the shingle, and you are pulled over loose sand and pebbles. You can see the shore, but the wave drags you away. The energy is concentrated, focused in the belly of the wave. Then it seems to stand still and grow taller. A moment later it’s crashing, rushing forward to the beach with froth and roar. Neptune, the great god of the sea, has been quietly retrograde since June 12. He moves very slowly. He’s gone back all of two degrees. But this slowness has focused the […]

Astrology of Now: Love Subdues Anger
“Love is the one thing stronger than desire and the only proper reason to resist temptation.” ― Jeanette Winterson, Venus and Mars in Virgo “The kiss itself is immortal. It travels from lip to lip, century to century, from age to age. Men and women garner these kisses, offer them to others and then die in turn.” ― Guy de Maupassant, Venus and Mars conjunction in Virgo Venus Peace Love Harmony Beauty Seduction “There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche — Mars and Venus in Virgo Mars Energy War Blood Lust Anger Tomorrow, […]

Maggie Smith: Capricorn Rules
We are well behind the curve in this household — just catching up on Downton Abbey. Love the frocks and the tableware, but mainly loving Maggie Smith, who is absolutely electric as the septuagenarian Dowager Countess. That means his lordship’s mum. So I wondered if there were a bit of the old sea-goat in her chart. What they say about Capricorn is that if you make it past your early 40s — unlike say Elvis — then you’re likely to go on and on and on. What is more you’re old when you’re young, and young when you’re old. Dame Maggie (for […]

Divided by Pluto: Virgo through Capricorn
I started writing about Pluto generations with the intention of keeping these summaries short and letting the pictures tell part of the story. These were meant to be ready references to spark off ideas. Then the subject ballooned out of control, and I had to stop for a bit. Now I’ve cut back and again and decided to publish these summaries and return to writing about the generations in greater detail later. Just to reiterate. There are a couple of interesting periods to look for each generation: when they come of age in their 20s and when they come to […]
