First things first, it’s my mother’s birthday today. She’s 77 today – and a fit 77 she is. Mum’s one of those people who was blessed with both a great metabolism and an inability to sit still. Although Mum and I are very different people, as I’m getting older I understand her a lot more.…

Tomorrow I’m scheduled to start my new novel. It has a title – Christmas at Curlew Cottage – and it has some characters who have a back story. It also has an opening premise. What happens next is anyone’s guess – I certainly won’t know until I actually write it. This is the most exciting…

Week Ahead: January 21 – January 27, 2019

It’s just that fantasy and imagination and daydreaming is so much more interesting than any boring, detailed work today – even if Mercury is in Capricorn and we should…

Ok, normally when the Moon is in Aries, the general forecast would be mostly fine – but active. The thing is, Mercury and Saturn together have the propensity to add a few clouds to the daily forecast. Sure, this is great energy for planning and strategising and it’s also good for adding some caution to…

Sun conjunct Pluto I’ve always worked hard to be accountable to others, but haven’t worried so much about letting myself down. It’s the main reason I think that my track record on the personal goal front isn’t great. It’s a self-respect thing. Anyways, accountability is the theme of today’s Sun-Pluto conjunction. It’s also a timely reminder…
