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…

More on the Eclipse…a sense of place and a wardrobe crisis.
I write this with a glass of Yarra Valley pinot noir in my glass (it is after wine o clock on a Friday afternoon here in Sydney) a snoring cocker spaniel keeping my feet warm under the computer desk and listening to an amazing cover of Dire Straits’ Romeo and Juliet by Aussie singer Lisa…

Eclipses, Magic 8 Balls and Domestic Divadom

Taurus Moon- Step Away From the Chocolate and Into the Garden
Mondo grass always seems like a great idea when it is first planted. The perfect natural border, I guess. We have a relatively large house block here in the suburbs and I swear when we first moved in, at least one third of it was covered with mondo grass…which would be OK if mondo grass…

Confide in Me
Mars in Gemini 21/6/11 Shane Warne has his Mars in Sagittarius, which I am sure no one except me really cares about (probably not even him). And why do I care about this? Because, I was absolutely convinced that if anyone had Mars in Gemini it would be Shane Warne- with all that texting that…

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…

Truth, Faith and a Mini-Milestone
Yesterday on this blog we talked about faith and the stuff that we know, the things we believe and where the two of these concepts meet. Sagittarius (the Moon) is associated with truth, faith, optimism and belief…what we know in our heart whereas Gemini (the Sun) is associated with information and data…what we know in…

Look, A Book…
I often get emails from people wanting to know about books for learning astrology. Or maybe you don’t want to know an awful lot about astrology, you just want to know what makes you tick (Aries and Leo, I’m looking at you…). Perhaps you read my sun sign blogs and think “that is so not…
