The Moon continues through stable Taurus, creating a double earth energy (with the Sun in Capricorn). This provides a practical energy which bodes well for taking a grounded approach to work and personal matters. An excellent cosmic support for any last minute holiday to do’s! Have you got y

The Moon is on the South Node, which is a karmic point about release and letting go. This creates an energy which is great for purifying, as well as a good de-clutter. I’m interested to hear if your Christmas is more low key this year as a result – or whether there are more gifts like

The Moon is now in Gemini, creating a lighter, social energy. There’s lots to talk about, and plenty of time in which to chat. Communication is key. While in Gemini, the Moon aligns with Jupiter (also in Gemini), and faces off with Venus. This adds an expansive energy, that’s got a tou

With the Moon in Pisces and conjunct Neptune it’s a day for escape, creativity and imagination. A trine link to Saturn indicates a gentle push towards something both heartfelt and substantial. A sextile link to Mars boosts enthusiasm, but only for those passions which represent your truth. H

It’s a change filled day as the Moon and Mars aspect Uranus. And yes, there might be chaos. Uranus represents liberation and freedom. Think of today’s energy as a ‘get out of jail’ vibe that helps you clarify what’s restrictive so you can make authentic changes. The Su

As energy planet Mars aligns with powerful Pluto, the cosmic stage is set for action and progress. When Mars and Pluto combine, the sheer force of your will can help you move mountains. Whatever goals or challenges you face, this pairing helps you apply effort over time to create change or success.

Dec 3, Sun opposite Jupiter This energy stretches you, in an attempt to help you understand how full life can be. Since Jupiter has an OTT quality, if you have gone above and beyond, or taken on too much, you may find later in the week there is a snap back effect, where the overdoing comes back to

I’m quite sure that in discussing 2013 themes, in this lecture, a possible mid year family/fertility cycle for Wills (and Kate, because they share some mega Cancer connections) came up. So, very exciting to hear of their pregnancy announcement today. Here’s wishing Kate smooth sailing t

Saturn in Scorpio has begun its first major aspect, that of a sextile to Pluto.  Here’s what I wrote about this influence in my Saturn in Scorpio eBook (Don’t have a copy yet? Order and download instantly here!) “Pluto’s transformational qualities apply to Saturn’s desire to creat

There are some dynamic skies ahead, as Venus, moving through her own sign, opposes Uranus and squares Pluto. These aspects are exact between November 1 – 5, highlighting an intense and change filled period. The Uranus/Pluto square has temporarily lessened (you can read more about this ongoing dance

Heading out on Monday morning I had a list of errands and appointments to tick off. My list looked something like this: Morning writing, finish by 10.30am Money errand, pick up glasses Chiropractor at 11.15am 12pm – 1.30pm beautician 2pm hour long appointment 3.30pm meet friend for coffee and chit

I’ve been working on a few features this week, and as such have retreated to my ‘writing cave’. I have Mars in Aquarius in the 12th, so writing in silence or while hidden feels best for me (like when the house is empty!). One of the features is about astrology and wealth, which me

While reading yesterday’s SMH this morning (Mercury is retrograde right?!), I noticed a couple of headlines that seem to jive with the current astrological influences. Here’s a quick look at the astrology behind two headlines. As Mercury continues to retrograde, details to the back stor

Eclipses are special kinds of new or full Moons. They happen when the Sun, Earth and Moon all occupy the same plane, and therefore interact with each other’s light. A New Moon or solar eclipse happens when the Sun’s light is blocked by the Moon. A Full Moon or lunar eclipse occurs when

The week kicks off with a dynamic first quarter Moon, bringing energy, drive and progress. The Moon is in free spirited Aquarius, and will square the intense Scorpio Sun. This pits insight and vision against the depths of the heart. Air vs water highlights information vs emotion. Being aware of the

The Moon, still in Aquarius, activates Mercury and the Nodes today.  It’s a mental day that encourages thinking, questions and thought provoking discussions. Curiosities are aroused daring you to question what you don’t understand. Choices between past and future must be made, so decid
