Hold tight, another retrograde is almost upon us. This time, its Plutos turn, beginning its retrograde on April 30 (AEST) and ending on October 8. Only last month, astronomers (not astrologers) published findings from a 2015 NASA space probe in which they claim to have discovered a c

The month begins in the lux-loving sign of Taurus and shifts into chatterbox Gemini on the 21st. This transition from Bullish fixed-earth to the mutable air of the Twins is perhaps the most striking volte face of the Zodiac calendar in terms of element and modality. Prepare accordingly fo

In her smash hit What’s Love Got To Do With It?, Tina Turner reduces that most noble form of human affection (Germans call it Liebe, Italians Amore) to “a second hand emotion,” “a sweet old fashioned notion,” and a mere cascade of biochemistry – “opposites attract/it’s physical, only logi

We begin March in the mutable waters of Pisces season and end it in the rash, youthful, head-butting domain of Aries (beginning March 21st). Of all transitions between signs, this one is perhaps the most jolting. Pisces is compassionate, free flowing, and oceanic, where Aries is self-cent

Weve seen in recent years, the climb in interest our collective society has had in astrology, its appeal, and how it applies to our day to our day relations. These days, you cant seem to scroll past a TikTok or Instagram feed without seeing a post from an astrologer giving their two cents on

The autumn equinox, dressed in bittersweet tweeds, approaches March 21st at sharp 03:33 Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT), as summer, like a sunburnt parent by the seaside, folds up its parasol of sky, looks for its keys, and quietly walks to its car parked forlornly up the road. Al

Yes, its that dreaded word we all love to hate. Retrograde. With 2022 starting off on a bit of a rocky astrological footing its no surprise we are ready to bury our heads under our pillows and call it a day. Alas, retrogrades are not all bad and while we arent free of them any year, we ha

We have a somewhat strange Mercury Retrograde occurring from January 14th to February 4th. Rather than backpedaling through one sign (which tends to cause enough cosmic mayhem), Mercury, the trickster, is going to double the dose and transit through two signs instead: first Aquarius (unti

Has anyone here seen Jonathan Demme’s emotional slugfest Rachel Getting Married? What about any of Noah Baumbach’s movies which so aptly chronicle dysfunctional families in bohemian Brooklyn brownstones? If you haven’t gotten around to these studies in resentment and uneasy reconciliation

Welcome to February. We kick it off with a brand New Moon in Aquarius on the 1st which also marks the Lunar New Year and Year of the Tiger. This Moon means business as Saturn, the Taskmaster, is close by it. Expect a bit less emotion with this lunation and set some tangible goals for Satu

Capricorn, Capricorn. Oh wherefore art thou Capricorn? Seeing as its the beginning of Cap season, and with Venus planting her sultry little paws into retrograde. We thought of no better opportunity than to look into the the wonderful world of star sign synastry and find that certain

Astrology and Romance: they go together like gin and tonic, spa and eucalyptus. In the spirit of the New Year, we thought it sagacious to forecast your love transits for 2022, so that, in the words of the great Kenny Rogers, you’ll “know when to hold em, know when to fold em, know when to

In partnership with Tiffany & Co.   As 2021 draws to a close, theres never been a more valuable time to reflect on the year that was – simultaneously deciding how we will choose to enter the year to come. For some, the focus will be on shedding old skin, while for others, embracing

Its no secret that here at RUSSH, we take astrology very seriously. In the same way that we digest the morning news, we look to the stars and planets to guide us for the day. Of course, we know that were not alone in this avid pursuit for knowledge, assurance and celestial leadership, and

Capricorn season (December 21st to January 20th) oversees a flurry of planets in its sign this year. Venus, Mercury, Pluto, the Sun, and a New Moon (on the 3rd) all criss-cross the somewhat ornery Goat, ruled by hoary-headed Saturn. As such, these stars will feel a bit more sombre, earthy

If youve read anything about planetary retrogrades, youll know that these are often periods of confusion, delays or things not feeling quite right. If over the last few weeks or even months, this feeling has been particular intense, youre not alone. There are currently five planets in a r

As we greet Scorpio season, we delve into the final chapter of the year. October was a turning point for many of us. It was a month where there were up to six planets in retrograde at one point. But now moving into November, the retrogrades are over and we enter a period of renewed normal

After the dark arts of Scorpio season last month, we will all be welcoming the outlandish optimism of Sagittarius - half-horse, half-human, all party-animal - for the holidays. Also known as the Archer (its bow always taut), Sagittarius is an endlessly complex sign: fun, loud, opinionated

Astrologically speaking, we’ve collectively been hit with some pretty wild activations over the last two years. We’ve felt them manifest (whether consciously or unconsciously) and how we approach our day-to-day life has significantly changed. But the good news is, 2022 is looking mag

Some signs are prone to passion. Others rule as the extroverts. There are the ones that are deeply in touch with their sensitivities. And also the ones that you can always trust. But what about the energetic comedians? Are there some signs that tend to have a sharper sense of humour
