  • Shit Happens…

    What I’m about to say might get me struck off the astrological register- if indeed there is an astrological register that I am currently on (which I very much doubt). Sometimes shit just happens. Yep, it does. Take the other day for example- I reversed into the garbage bin- one of those tall green weekly…

  • I don’t wanna be the one

    I’m having commitment issues. Not for the obvious reasons ie relationship, job, etc, but over shellac. Yep that hard stuff that goes on your nails instead of nail polish. It’s a bit much to have to predict what nail colour mood you might be in 2 weeks down the track. Just saying. Anyways, I blogged…

    Absolutely Fabulous, Series 4- the Detox episode. On a girls night out, which is every night frankly, because no one has a man, the girls are talking about how every racehorse needs a donkey (symbolically speaking) as 2 racehorses in the same stable would, as Patsy so eloquently put it, “kick the shit out of…

  • Ask AstroJo: Traditionally Yours

    I’ve been on a family holiday/roadtrip to the Sunshine Coast. Along the way I had some connectivity issues which, whilst convenient for me, meant that I haven’t posted on here for simply ages. Here’s one I prepared earlier…I’ll post more astro later today (& maybe some travel stuff as well) after I finish emptying suitcases…

  • Let It Go: Pluto Retrograde 2012

    OK, I am holidays at present, so here is last years Pluto retrograde post updated… In my younger less married days I used to love doing the Cleo and Cosmo sex quizzes on the train to work. Learned some interesting things from them too… but obviously that is not for here..I would make sure that…

    Regular readers have heard me wax lyrical from time to time about those soupy dumplings I first tried in Hong Kong, and later wherever I can get them…xiao long bao… Anyways, when I was in Hong Kong, I could easily have had these 3 meals a day. In case you’re interested, there are about 310…

  • Ask AstroJo: The Transit Edition

    Thanks for the questions. I have more to post, but for now, here are the ones relating (loosely) to transits… What order do you refer to transits eg if transiting Venus is conjunct Pluto in your birthchart, how do you say that? A very good question, with 2 answers. When we refer to planets making…

    I’ve heard it said that Libra is just Aries who has been to charm school, or Aries with better manners and fashion sense, or Aries with a velvet glove. The point is, there isn’t a huge amount of different between the two once you get below the surface- but then, that is the case for…

  • Q & A: How to cast a chart

    To get the ball rolling, a few pointers on casting charts and astro weather forecasts…non astro peeps? you have been warned… What software do you use to cast charts? I run Solarfire. It’s developed by an Aussie company, so I might be biased, but I love it. It is windows based, so if, like me,…
