Express Yourself- DIY Leo New Moon
I wrote here last week about my completely disproportionate reaction (ie meltdown) to the latest rejection of my fiction. I was telling my friend at the club last night about it. ‘But it wasn’t a real meltdown was it?’ she asked. ‘You’ve had rejections before- you know they go with the territory.’ I sure have…

DIY Capricorn Full Moon
Full Moons illuminate whatever area of life they fall on in your chart. Essentially it gives you nowhere to hide…or to keep things hidden. If it happens to aspect a planet (especially by conjunction, square or opposition- use an orb of no more than 2 degrees), that spotlight will shine even brighter- there is nowhere…

So Yesterday- DIY Cancer New Moon
Normally at the Cancer New Moon, I talk a bit about home. Last year I think it was about the painting I was doing. This year my head is full of mamma bear stuff- I wrote about that yesterday. The Cancer Moon is about all those things. It’s about home, family, nurturing, the past, yesterday,…

Love the Fall- Neptune Retrograde
Neptune is now retrograde- and will be until 15 November. Being the planet of spiritualism and delusion can be exhausting- all those artists to inspire, all that illusion to create, all that intuition and psychic ability to enhance, all that fog and wonderful haze. The downside of a Neptune transit, however, can be an increased need…

Are you listening?
I mentioned the other day that I have an ear infection. I’m taking antibiotics prescribed by the World’s Rudest Doctor- who also didn’t listen. You see, I don’t normally take antibiotics. Touch wood, I haven’t needed to. The last time was back about 7 years (yes, I’ve noticed the Saturn cycle too) when I slammed…

Something about planning ahead…
So anyways, it’s Monday. Again. The start of a new week. I like new starts, and each week we’re provided with one. Each month we’re provided with one. Each day, we’re provided with one. Today, though, for this week’s new start, you could be finding that you have a few problems getting, well, started. Especially…

What I know for sure about transits…so far…
I remember 2006 well. For much of it, I was a bubbling mass of restlessness. It sat in my chest and fluttered constantly, as if it were a mass of butterflies waiting to be let out. I didn’t know it then, but I know now that Uranus was sitting in my 12th house, and had…

DIY Mercury Returns
My Mercury is having a birthday today. 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 mind- and how we use it to think, learn and communicate- is revitalized. New…
