Something about going overboard…

Sun opposition Jupiter So, the Sun and Jupiter walk into a bar…what could possibly go wrong? What indeed… Sun – Jupiter contacts – even the opposition – tend to be quite positive in nature…relatively speaking. As with all oppositions, however, there’s a potential towards extremes. Whenever the Sun is involved, that extreme could involve ego.…

Sun square Neptune

Okay, I didn’t know whether to post this today or yesterday. That’s the problem with different timezones. Usually, I’ll post my aspects at 6 am my time, but of course the words are designed to cover you off for 24 hours wherever in the world you are. Anyways, this aspect is exact in about an…

Mercury in Cancer

While the sign that the Moon is in will show how you instinctively and emotionally react to situations, the sign that Mercury is in tells us a lot about how we think, how we communicate, how we learn and how we connect different pieces of information together.

A Mercury in Cancer Story

Settle back children, while I tell you a story… On the edge of the woods in a country far far away stood a village. In the village lived a hunter, his wife and their four sons. The wife was growing their fifth child in her belly, growing bigger by the day. One day, the hunter…

Aries New Moon

Venus In Pisces

Venus in Pisces La Vie En Rose. I love this song. It’s the melody, the lyrics, Piaf’s smoky voice, the idea of living life tinted by pink, perpetual Spring… It’s perfect for Venus in Pisces. Of course, another great song choice would be the one by Savage Garden: I knew I loved you before I…

Uranus in Aries – a 2nd house retrospective

I mentioned in my wrap-up of the week last Sunday that I was blaming the restlessness and frustration that’s been in the air on Uranus or, more specifically, on the fact that Uranus was in the last throes of the transit through Aries and wouldn’t get another chance at shaking up that part of the…

Pisces New Moon

New Moon 6/7 March 2019 15 Pisces 47’ I was intending on getting something new out for you for this new moon, but I’m in Sydney working and absolutely exhausted by the time I’m getting home – so we’re going with something that’s been, shall I say, repackaged… “One must still have chaos in oneself to be…

Mercury Retrograde March 2019

Here in Queensland, we don’t switch the clocks to daylight saving time – even though the rest of the east coast of Australia does. There are varying reasons for this which include arguments that the cows won’t know when to be milked and the chooks won’t know when to lay. There are also more valid…
