Counting the Beat 2-3-4-5
Venus in Virgo likes to count things. And one thing I have learned in the last week or so is that that ships have a mountain of statistics to Amaze and Surprise. This morning we did a cooking demonstration & tour of the galley (for those of you taking note of my incredibly in-depth technical…

Venus in Virgo- by Phryne Fisher
“Miss Jones was the sort of person who is concealed, like the nun in the foundation, in every organisation which does Good Works. Patient, dogged, meticulous, vastly overworked, unpaid and completely unappreciated, she finds, files, calls, arranges, soothes and ameliorates papers, contracts, tradesmen, repairs, hurt feelings and Very Important People. No one notices her until…

Queen of the Jungle
There we were: 2 Aussies on our last night in London. Scorpio Hubby & I had been for dinner at my sisters’ place in Maida Vale and were on the Tube heading back to the tiny square that was our hotel room, when I commented that we hadn’t yet seen Buckingham Palace (other than from…

Holding Out For a Hero- Venus in Aries
I have Venus in Aries & love it. It gives me some fire and drive that my otherwise water-logged chart wouldn’t have. Even though I still can be way too Piscean about going after what I want, I do want what I want NOW! I look for Aries or strong Mars in relationships & like a good battle… &…

Great Expectations
The other day Venus crossed my Ascendant. Nothing happened. Facebook & Twitter friends having a similar transit reported similar momentous events- although one did comment that her hair was good. The textbook blurb said that I should be looking & feeling good- attractive, loving, sexy & in a good mood. If I go shopping I…

La Vie En Rose- Venus in Pisces
Once upon a time there was a magical movie about a chauffeurs’ daughter who had made an occupation out of being in love with her employers’ son. He is handsome and mega rich and exciting, but he doesn’t know that she exists. So she runs away to Paris to forget him and find herself. When…

Don’t Call Me Baby
Venus in Aquarius The really bad part of summer school holidays is the shopping centre is crowded and finding somewhere to sit and eat lunch is a nightmare. The good part is squeezing into a table near a group of extremely knowledgeable teenage girls and hearing a conversation like this: ‘He is just so sensitive. …
