Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps…and a little buyers remorse
© Athos Boncompagni | Dreamstime.com There’s this cute little trattoria in a suburb near me. It overlooks a bush valley with brightly coloured rosellas and king parrots darting through the gum trees in amazing flashes of colour. The restaurant itself is one of those real traditional Italian let us serve you styles. This essentially means…

As I write, Mercury has moved into Virgo. This is good news on a couple of fronts: Mercury is at his strongest in Virgo it means that Mercury has re-traced his steps completely following the retrograde period. He is now out of the shadow period, so all things mercurial should be now well & truly…

Here we go again….
Mercury has slowed right down and is getting ready to turn retrograde (in about 19 hours time). Whilst I am in a bit of a “lets ride the gauntlet and see what happens” mood, I am sure there are others of you out there with just a tad more responsibility and maturity than what I…

Signs, a little magic and how to think like a Piscean

According to one article I read this afternoon on astro.com (the link is here), he has a Scorpio Ascendant and his Moon in the last degree of Pisces (which the writer felt was the perfect degree and position for sacrifices of love…awwwww).…

Daydream Believer
Mercury moves into Virgo in the early hours of tomorrow morning (Sydney time) and almost immediately moves to oppose Neptune. This in itself would be worthy of a 2 line mention on a Daily Planets edition of this blog as Mercury moves fast enough that the transit in itself would last a day- two at…

Message in a Bottle
Put a message in a bottle. Seal the lid and send it out to sea. Or set free a helium balloon with a note tied to the tail. Or just sit still, in a quiet room, and transmit your thoughts into the ether. You need, if you will forgive this lapse into hippie-speak, to…

An Invitation to Romance
I’m not normally one for poetry, but I read this today on Sarah Wilsons’ website and thought I would share it too. It comes from Oriah and is quite simply beautiful. I love all of it…every last line. In the spirit of Mercury in Leo, this is a poem about love, a poem about self-expression,…

Darling, you were fabulous!
Thou goatish rump-fed strumpet! I was having some fun on Facebook the other day with Shakespearian insults. Lines like the above or this one: Thy lips rot off! Or even: [Thine] face is not worth sunburning. I could amuse myself with these for ages, but would be avoiding the point of this post which is…

This is How it Feels: Mercury in Cancer
This is how it feels When you wait for a call that never comes Are you waking up ’cause you miss someone? This is how it feels When the trust you had is broken, And you’re left to burn with your heart wide open Think about the last time you had your heart broken. Or…
