    In our lives, we are so busy multi-tasking, juggling devices and schedules that we forget to notice the details. We miss things. For me, Mercury retrograde has always been that time when we’re reminded that a little back-tracking, a little revision, a few deliberate pauses in the day can be a way in which we…

    Since leaving my day job a couple of months ago I’ve struggled with daily structures and routines. Rather than being more productive with my writing, I’ve been less, and rather than using my time more efficiently, I’ve regularly found myself faffing about watching Hallmark Christmas movies when I should be doing something that will contribute…

    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. When Mercury is in a water sign, emotions,…

    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…

    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…

    My Mercury had a birthday on Valentine’s Day. It’s just taken me this long to post the return chart. Just like our birthday – or the day when our Sun returns to its natal position – is a recharging of our vital energies; when Mercury returns to its natal position, it’s a time when our…

    Mercury moves into Aquarius later today or the wee hours of tomorrow morning – depending on where you live. Yeah, so what? I hear you say. ‘I’m not an Aquarian,’ you say, ‘so it can’t affect me.’ Yeah…nah. The thing is, the movement of the planets provides the planetary or astro weather forecast for all…

    Mercury is poised to move into Capricorn and my attention has turned to matters of business – or rather business results and business planning.

    Mercury in Sagittarius I first published this post a few years ago – the ages and dates have been updated. These days our walks are on the beach and her school days have been replaced by university…the rest remains the same. There’s a line in the great Aussie movie The Castle where Dale Kerrigan is…
