It’s all about seeing things as they really are. There will be a New Moon and an annular Solar Eclipse on the 26th of February at 8°12’ Pisces, a mutable, Water sign ruled by Neptune (modern) and Jupiter (traditional). New Moons are notoriously the best moment to set fresh intentions for the month ahead. This one falls on the 12th-6th house axis (Pisces-Virgo) in traditional astrology so themes such as chaos vs order, compassion vs criticism and wholeness vs perfection come to mind. Raven Kaldera in his book “Moon Phase Astrology” calls this new Moon the “Dreamer’s [...]
…..a little drama or a lot of excitement? The first Lunar Eclipse of 2017 will take place at 22°28’ in the fiery sign of Leo. The last lunar eclipse* around this degree was at 21° Leo on February 9th 2009 What was happening in your life then? Whilst Solar eclipses manifest as external events in our lives, Lunar eclipses indicate more intimate, emotional changes which could of course still manifest as external events if the brooding that accompanies our innermost vicissitudes causes changes to our behaviour at an individual level. Such events are in fact brought about by [...]
…time to gain new perspectives about how we can change our relationships We associate Jupiter, the first of the “superior” or outer planets (affecting the collective rather than the personal) with growth, expansion and luck which, if exaggerated, can also lead to greed and dissatisfaction in some cases, making us believe that the grass is greener elsewhere and so prompting us to explore further Jupiter has been transiting the sign of Libra since last September and stops in his tracks at 23°08’ before seemingly, but not actually, moving retrograde. Libra is about connection and [...]

“You are a piece of the puzzle of someone else's life. You may never know where you fit, but others will fill the holes in their lives with pieces of you.” Bonnie Arbon There will be a New Moon at 8°15’ of Aquarius, a fixed, Air sign on the 28th of January, the same day that Mars enters its own sign, Aries. New Moons are excellent moments to do a reality check, asking ourselves where we are at the present moment in time and where we would like to go, particularly regarding the matters of the house where the New Moon falls in your chart and thus set our relative intentions for the [...]
On the 12th there will be a Full Moon at 22°27’ Cancer. Full Moons are when matters climax, they are “now or never” moments regarding any projects we have initiated or intentions set at the preceding New Moon fourteen days ago. This Full Moon falls on the traditional 10th-4th axis, work vs home, public vs private, one parent vs another, rigidity vs flexibility etc. It will have major impact on those with planets or angles between 20-24° of the Cardinal signs of Cancer, Libra, Capricorn and Aries In his book “Moon Phase Astrology”, author Raven Kaldera calls this the “Sea[...]
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MY CLIENTS AND READERS the January horoscopes have now been posted
“Hermits have no peer pressure” S.Wright On the 29th of December there will be a New Moon at 7°59’ in the sign of Capricorn. Capricorn is a Cardinal, Earth sign, so persons with planets or angles of the natal chart at 6-9° of Capricorn, Aries, Cancer and Libra will be particularly affected by this lunation. New Moons are notoriously the best moment to set fresh intentions for the month ahead and with Capricorn involved, this will be done in a very serious, responsible fashion. In traditional astrology Capricorn rules the 10th house so this New Moon falls on the 10th-4th [...]
Generosity, responsibility and a bit of quirkiness over the Christmas period…. On the 25-26th December the planet Jupiter meets up with two of the “big boys” (more for importance than for size). The first to open the dances will be a trine from Saturn in Sagittarius to Uranus retrograde (and almost stationary) in Aries at 20°33’. Inviting us to combine the traditional with the unconventional (eccentric party hats anyone?). This aspect might also prompt us to make choices and expectations more responsibly whilst planning our own individual form of “rebellion”, the sextile [...]
