This July, Uranus, Pluto, Neptune and Jupiter will form a perfect pattern shaped like a brazier, chalice or grail that spreads across the signs between Aquarius and Leo via Aries and Gemini. This perfects around 18 July depending on where you are in the world, but it is already active now. All [...]

Click the image to go to the YouTube video. At this month’s Salon we focused on Uranus in Gemini, and what it’s been feeling like over the last couple of weeks since the planet of electricity shimmied into the first air sign. I told some stories to members of the Salon, and they [...]

This is the first 20 minutes of the member’s salon in which I discuss the chart of Pope Leo, water wars and space — some of the themes of current astrology. During the Salon, we go the news that Orban lost — which was great! The Salon is actually about an hour and a half, [...]

Jeffrey Epstein raped, tortured and likely murdered women and children. I’ll just reiterate that. “Financier” Jeffrey Epstein raped, tortured and likely murdered women and children. If you were a “friend” — and he seemed to have an awful lot of those [...]

The Chinese Year of the Fire Horse officially began at the New Moon on 17 February, which also happened to be a solar eclipse. At the same time, the god of horses, Neptune, rears and strikes sparks at the very start of the Western zodiac — 0° Aries, ready to gallop into the future. On […]

I was so pleased when astrologer Anne Whitaker agreed to chat with me about the massive cosmic shifts that we are experiencing. She joined me in the Salon and this video is of the first hour of our conversation. After I stopped the recording, for privacy reasons, we went on to expand further [...]

This year it’s going to be very hard to know what to hold on to and what to let go, who to rely on and who will vanish, how to move forward or when to stand still in this year of change and change about. This is because all the planets are changing signs, with […]

It was a shocking development. They knew that she was the Sultan’s favourite, the mother of his children, but who would have thought that he would actually marry the Ruthenian woman?  In the year 1533, Suleiman the Magnificent wed his concubine Roxelana, making her Sultana, the most powerful [...]

In the past few years, many people have realised, sometimes quite late in life, that they have ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder)  or autism — and it’s been a massive relief. Both autism and ADHD are wide spectrum conditions (not disorders, thank you), of course, and [...]

The second Saturn Return at around the age of 58 or 59 is a time when a chapter closes and a new door opens into what may be the final third of a person’s life. It’s as important as the one at 28, when real adult life begins and the first flush of youth is […]

Kate Bush, visionary song-writer and performer, is being rediscovered by a whole new generation, thanks to the inclusion of her song Running Up That Hill in the TV series Stranger Things. For a person born with a Uranus-Sun conjunction in Leo, of course, nothing is strange, and anything can be [...]

This is the talk I gave  at Aquarius Severn last Thursday. Enjoy!

In Mister Rogers’ neighbourhood people are honest, your feelings are important, and you are special. Mister Rogers exuded goodness of heart, purity of intention and folksy wisdom. He was the opposite of cynical. I was tiny when I watched his show but I still remember how Mister Rogers [...]

  This Sunday, October 11, I’ll be talking to Anne Whitaker on Zoom. We’ll be discussing the times we’re in now, how we might navigate them, and where we might be going. It’s clear that we are in a moment when old structures are falling apart. There’s chaos, [...]

She lives in daydreams with me She’s the first one that I see And I don’t know why I don’t know who she is … ” — She Talented, graceful Aquarian Harry Styles is much more than a pop star, indeed he appears to be channelling something bigger than himself [...]

  One of the lessons of astrology is that it takes all sorts to run the world. We need Aquarian teamwork, Cancerian nurturing, Aries can-do, Leonine playfulness — or to put that in modern terms, we need Aquarian autism, Cancerian hypochondria, Arien sadism and Leonine narcissism. [...]

Oh my!  We are deep into Poseidon’s watery territory this month. Watch out for the jellyfish and the sharks. On the other hand, look at those flashing schools of multi-coloured fish over on that coral reef, and some dolphins disporting themselves on those waves and a mermaid on that rock [...]
