This current ”Long Stay of Mars in Leo” is the first since 1962/63- this is because in order to qualify for a long stay the planet must remain in the same sign and not retrograde back into the previous one – as it did for example in 1977/78. Being Sun ruled – this placement of Mars [...]

Britain is gearing up for a General Election. Though a date has not been set – it has to take place before June 3. At the time of the election Saturn will be opposing Uranus (yet again) accross the mutable Virgo (Saturn) Pisces (Uranus) axis.. The candidates – predictably – reflect this oppositon, on the [...]

I see that Naomi Campbell is in the news again – but for all the wrong reasons. Fortunately for Naomi - her chauffeur has dropped his assault charge. The chauffeur originally accused Naomi of slapping and punching him. This is of course not the first time that Naomi Campbell has been accused of assault – previous [...]

My first attempt to see Avatar ended in disaster: it was sold out. So this time I did the right thing and booked online. Despite the cliche’s in the story itself, the technology has clearly come a long way since “Creature of the Black Lagoon” !! The premier of Avatar was in London, on December 10th 2009 [...]

In my Valentine’s day post, I looked at the impact of Pluto in Libra, Scorpio and Capricorn on relationships. I left Sagittarius out of the equation, dropped a stitch. Sagittarius is a future orientated, visionary, philosophical sign. The archer is never quite satisfied with things as they are – he shoots his arrow – and [...]

It’s Valentine’s Day… and evidence of the commercialisation of love and relationships abound. When I first moved to the Netherlands – even finding a Valentine’s card was difficult. How things have changed.. A guy at the flower shop yesterday – while waiting for his bouquet – was keen to tell me that there was a “big [...]

I was drawn to Barack Obama – seeing in him someone who reflected the “zeitgeist” the spirit of the time. A year later, it must be said, he’s not had an easy ride. One consolation: this was predictable. Obama inherited a mess and things often have to get worse, before they can get better. But ours is an [...]
Tiger Woods has been getting more than his usual share of the limelight these last few weeks and not for his accomplishments on the golf course either. No, it’s Tiger’s love life that the tabloids are snooping over - kiss and tell tales – especially when fame and hypocrisy are involved – sell lots and lots of newspapers. Astrologers too [...]
On November 20th, TV-Queen Oprah Winfrey announced that in September 2011 she will stop with “The Oprah Winfrey Show”. By then the show will have run for 25 years (the first episode was broadcast on Sept. 8, 1986). With Saturn now in opposition with Uranus – it seems fitting that Oprah an Aquarian herself – should chose to [...]
I don’t know about the rest of the world, but in Holland much attention has been given the last weeks to the sorry lot of some of the world’s most vulnerable citizens. I’m talking of course, about children. Children are a cheap source of labour in the third world – and manufacturers are all to [...]
On this day – 40 years ago – the first episode of Sesame Street was screened. It’s remarkable when you look at old film – how much of the original recipe has remained. Guests come and go, as do presenters, but Sesame Street continues to engage, enthrall and educate children. The horoscope for the first episode is [...]
One of the more interesting articles in the Astrological Association’s book “An Astrological Anthology” must be Dane Rudhyar’s piece on the long stay of Mars in a particular sign. This recurring 79 year cycle is divided into two periods of 32 and 47 years, so at these intervals we are able to observe the influence of [...]

Earlier this week, I wrote about the grand trine today between the Sun in Libra, the Moon in Gemini and the grand trine of Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune. Air is an element of intellect, and of curiosity. (That reminds me, today a group of scientists from NASA will insult our Moon!! We all know what [...]

Like many others I can’t help but wonder why Roman Polanski was arrested now. However having said that, the heavens certainly seem to support the action. For what is Virgo – if not a virgin and what is Saturn if not the old man. At present, Mercury is poised between both planets – and what is this if not a [...]
With Mercury in Virgo and about to turn direct..the time is ripe for some musings on the subject of books. When I think – Mercury in Virgo – a picture appears in my mind of a scribe, or a monk, diligently working on a manuscript. Those were the days. With Saturn so close to Mercury [...]

Well..global issues are on the agenda this week aren’t they? And what a planetary line-up, the ongoing Jupiter, Chiron, Neptune conjunction lends itself to discussions that transcend the boundaries of race, colour, creed and country. The last time these three planets met was in September 1945 – and we all know what happened then. Yes..World [...]

This week Veronica (a Dutch tv channel) has been running a series of Quentin Tarantino movies: Reservoir Dogs; Jackie Brown; and last but not least Pulp Fiction. The Dutch particularly love Pulp Fiction by the way. This is because Tarantino wrote the script while living in Amsterdam and there are several references to the city in the film. [...]
