Something about believing in possibility…
Thursday 5 September Moon in Virgo I was catching up on some unwatched episodes of Castle the other day- yes, I like my TV a tad cheesy. Anyways, in this episode, Castle and Beckett are chasing down what Castle is convinced is a Big Foot. Beckett asks Castle, ‘isn’t there anything that you believe in?’…

Fix You
Thursday 5 September, 2013 New Moon in Virgo The problem with habits is that in order to be defined as one, you actually have to do the thing that’s going to be a habit more than once. Sad but true. Now, those of you out there with more fixed energy in your charts, and more…

and on that farm he had a….?
‘and on that farm he had a …. crocodile!’ announced Sarah. ‘But there aren’t any crocodiles on farms, Sarwah,’ pointed out A. My daughter and my niece were singing “Old Macdonald Had a Farm” in the back of the car. Both girls were about 4 at the time and very cute. ‘Well, there was on…

Taking care of business…

Anyways,…

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…

You Don’t Know You’re Beautiful
White is the new black. Five little words that will strike abject horror into the hearts of anyone who, like me, has a compromised Venus. I don’t avoid white because I feel that it doesn’t suit me, but rather because it rarely stays white. I inevitably spill red wine if I am wearing white. Even…

Something About Virgo
Like all signs, Virgo is a contradiction. At one end of the spectrum you have the super critical, perfection seeking, nit picking, clean freak. At the other end you have chaos. Somewhere in the middle is a person who has the potential to organise life in the way she wants, who can accept that sometimes…

How to Build a House
I learned a lot because of the Brisbane floods last year. I learned a lot about electricity- how it works, how the wires act like capillaries and the different names for light types. I learned about generators, I learned about lift curtains (and how to hang them), I learned about bollards and how to damage…
