It goes without saying that not everything New Age is terrible. Like everything, there is good and bad in every movement. The problem at any given time is dogmatism and the potential for exploitation. It is so interesting to me how the promise of something usually entails the opposite. A shortcut on your journey turnsContinue reading “New Age, New Cage!”

Neptune in Synastry (2)
This is a great meme, and set off a long train of thought for me today. Neptune in synastry is one of my favourite things to think about. As human beings, we struggle more or less with our own wholeness. Neptune as an archetype represents unity with the Divine- limitless, true, utter spiritual love. WhatContinue reading “Neptune in Synastry (2)”
Thoughts on Pluto in Astrology
At the time of writing, the author has recently survived transit Pluto squaring her Venus, Mercury and Sun. The author also has her natal Pluto in Scorpio conjunct her Moon in Scorpio, and square her chart ruler (Jupiter). Pluto in Astrology is something she really feels she knows about, although Pluto is of course impossibleContinue reading “Thoughts on Pluto in Astrology”

The Synastry of King Charles and Queen Camilla.
When it comes to synastry, it can be amazingly illustrative to peek into the lives of famous people. Yet we must always remember to listen to what the charts are telling us, and not what we think we know about these individuals. Nothing lies to us more than the mainstream news media, except perhaps gutterContinue reading “The Synastry of King Charles and Queen Camilla.”

Chiron.
At the time of writing, Chiron is currently stationing retrograde not far from my natal Venus. With my natal Chiron also on my DC, this is really hammering home the whole concept of Chiron for me. What perfect time to write an article on the subject! Chiron is not a glamorous entity. I have seenContinue reading “Chiron.”
Saturn in Synastry
Look at this building! It is standing for now, doubtless people live in it. But I can almost guarantee that, in time, there will be a collapse. Should there be no earthquakes or tidal waves or major storms, it will stand strong- but the slightest nudge from outside will knock it down. Very much likeContinue reading “Saturn in Synastry”
Mercury in synastry (Part 2, Aspects)
Good old Mercury, trickster god, social butterfly, being of quicksilver and brimstone! You can make us a overthinking mess with a scorched-up brain, an impresario, a genius or a fool. Yet one thing is certain, we do need you to help us be human, help us acheive our essential purpose on this earth. Mercury, inContinue reading “Mercury in synastry (Part 2, Aspects)”
Mercury in synastry (Part 1)
As Mercury is now in retrograde (causing my last post to disappear!), a lot of people have questions about the significance of Mercury in synastry. It is often overlooked, as I suppose it is not fluffy and romantic like Venus or the Moon, or sexy like Mars or Pluto. But communication does form the backboneContinue reading “Mercury in synastry (Part 1)”
