Ex-Mayor of Manchester Andy Burnham has stormed to victory in the super-consequential bi-election in Makerfield. His bid for the seat was the first move in a process to oust Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Burnham did not just win, he won resoundingly; trouncing the right-wing Reform candidate [...]

At this month’s Salon we discussed the future, using the Pope’s encyclical Magnifica Humanitas as a way in to thinking about how to approach the incredible pattern of planets this summer. This led to discussion of inequality, the effects of the 2008 banking crisis and much more. To [...]

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 [...]

Anyone could see she was a queen. That’s why they wanted to hurt her. She was born with the Sun and Moon in the royal sign, Leo, and Leo Rising. She emanated light. That’s why they wanted to snuff her out. Several Leo women I’ve met were abused as children. I have wondered if [...]

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 [...]

Once upon a time, Neptune tore away a gossamer curtain, and revealed a secret world of demons. We saw them sitting around their laden table, gorging themselves, slavering, dribbling, doing things so unspeakable that our hearts stopped for a moment; some of us turned to stone. None of us will [...]

Just wondering if British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is going to fall on his wooden stake. Why? Because he admitted in parliament that when he appointed Peter Mandelson to be ambassador to Washington, he knew about Mandelson’s friendship with Jeffrey Epstein. That was a moment during [...]

Peter Mandelson — liar or “the most charming man in Westminster” — may turn out to be the biggest traitor to this country since the Cambridge Four. Like them, he was deeply embedded in the British Establishment, so embedded, indeed, that they gave him a Lordship. Meanwhile, he was [...]

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has had a hell of a Saturn Return. He became the leader of his country, while standing up to his unruly southern neighbour, pivoted Canada’s alliances, and just last week delivered one of the most important 15-minute speeches of the decade. Carney is [...]

How do you deal with the Inquisition, the Nazis, ISIS, the secret police, the occupiers, the forces of oppression, the slave catchers, ICE? What if they come knocking on your door? Many of our ancestors had to answer this same question, and many people around the world right now. And the [...]

Lilith, the Black Moon, has finally arrived in one of her favourite signs, Sagittarius where she is free to run barefoot through the wild woods. I have shared some thoughts on a short video to get you thinking. Click on the image to go to the video on YouTube. It’s going to work [...]

Stern Saturn and idealistic Neptune met in the 20th century in just three signs at approximately 35-year intervals. Each time, there was a paradigm shift for Russia. 1917—By February, more than 9 million had been killed in the war; famine scratched at the civilian population as the government [...]

—————————— From East Wing Magazine “If the West Wing is the mind of the nation, then the East Wing is the heart.” — Betty Ford —————————— It was bad enough when they paved over the Rose Garden, but the destruction of the East Wing of the White House by a wrecking crew is just [...]

This essay came with this month’s horoscopes on 1 October. I’ve adjusted it slightly because — events, darling. This month’s illustrations were details of roses, which in themselves combine perfect order and disorder. A pair of scales, the symbol for Libra, has also [...]

No child should be part of any conflict — ever. So far, at least 20,000 Ukrainian children have been abducted and taken for “re-education” into the heart of Russia. Meanwhile, at least 17,000 Palestinian children have been killed outright by the Israeli military in the last 18 [...]

“There was once a dreadfully wicked hobgoblin. One day he was in capital spirits because he had made a looking-glass which reflected everything that was good and beautiful in such a way that it dwindled almost to nothing, but anything that was bad and ugly stood out very clearly and [...]

This month’s horoscopes came with this short essay. I think it’s important to know. Things fall apart, slowly at first, and then it happens all at once. We’ve been experiencing the “all at once” phase. The global order with which we are familiar was established after World War Two [...]

The story of  death and resurrection, the end and the beginning, mortality and eternity resonated with exceptional power this Easter-tide, especially as war continues in the holy land.  Sadly, the death of Pope Francis on this Easter Monday seems right for the times. It is hard to overstate [...]

It’s Taurus Season, and another month in this tumultuous spring that’s sweeping us all into the future. Hold on to your hats, grab your umbrella, swizzle your sonic screwdriver, and away we go. If you prefer to listen, here is the Astrology Talk website. The Lilith in Scorpio video [...]
