Bad Romance…
Venus in Scorpio “I want your love and I want your revenge…I want your love, I don’t want to be friends.” This line from Lady Gagas’ Bad Romance sum up Venus in Scorpio perfectly. The Venus we saw in Libra was a milk chocolate girl- sweet and pretty with a lovely texture and melt in…

Leave me alone, I’m lonely….
Tuesday 27 August Moon in Taurus A friend posted the picture above on her Facebook page yesterday morning. I suspect I could ask this question of 10 friends and get 10 different answers- and a number of extremely judgemental responses. The answer I get, the answer you’d give, would be determined, at least in part…

You don’t know you’re beautiful…
Yesterday an email from the fashion house that would be my favourite fashion house- if it weren’t for the fact that I can’t fit into their clothes at the moment- turned up in my inbox. The subject struck horror into my heart. All White- a key palette for the season ahead. It got worse. A…

the Divine Miss Fisher…
If you look closely enough, you’ll find astro references in most parts of normal life. Books and films especially. I was watching some offcut video from Annabel Crabb’s (she’s an Aussie political journo) Kitchen Cabinet (a show where she invites herself to lunch with pollies) and Nick Xenophon (an independent senator) was making some taramasalata…

Under the influence…of love…
In True Blood (incidentally I stopped watching a couple of seasons ago…) the vampires glamor their prey. By glamor I don’t mean they dressed them up and popped some make up on them, I mean that they somehow enchant their prey, delude them, disorient them, break down all of their defences. This is what happens…

Diamonds are a girls best friend…
I’m on holidays at the moment, so here’s one I prepared earlier… Keep up with the latest in my travels over at and anyways… A kiss on the hand can be quite continental and oh so romantic, but no matter how charming, it won’t pay the rent. Any self respecting Venus in Taurus girl knows…

when Wonder Woman hooked up with Superman…
Venus and Mars are currently together in the Mars ruled fire sign of Aries. While the conjunction won’t be exact for 24 hours, they are at the same degree now and the energy will be with us for the next few days. What does this mean? At it’s most basic it means that what you…

Venus Returns…Part 2
Warning for non astro peeps- the next 1000 or so words contain terms of a technical nature…if you’re easily bored, turn away now! First, the important stuff: As with all return charts, the Venus Return can be read on its own and with reference to the natal chart. The Venus Return doesn’t occur predictably. In…

Venus Returns…Part 1
Venus conjunct Venus. When transiting Venus is exactly conjunct natal Venus. The Venus Return. Venus. The planet that governs relationships, relating…the planet that influences the things that make us feel good. Venus is how we decorate ourselves, where we find beauty, the things that make us feel and look more attractive…indeed, Venus is about the…

Holding out for a Hero…
I have Venus in Aries, so this post every year is always one that I love writing- partly because of that Aries energy and partly because it means that my Venus Return (and at least one reasonably decent hair day) is just around the corner. Venus doesn’t particularly like being in Aries. Venus is all…
