Taking Your Place
How a many of you have recently had a sore throat or major problems with your voice? The throat is the 5th chakra, and is the second power chakra in our body. Many people say that their biggest fear is that of public speaking. Is this the fear of speaking or what the result may be? Is it really a fear of being ridiculed and attacked when we stand up and take our place? Read the full article>

Leo/Aquarius: Reconnecting the heart and the mind
This is a good time to do a workshop or find a group that focuses on healing/spirituality. This is especially important time for those with planets in Leo/Aquarius - and that's a whole lot of us! Chiron (the Wounded Healer) is travelling alongside Neptune all year in the sign of Aquarius. This is rare, especially since this month Rahu, the North Node of the Moon is with them. This creates an opportunity to heal any wounds we have about being 'The Outsider', that we are separate. Its time to heal our heartbreaks and open our hearts to love anew. Find out more>

May/June What message are you hearing? What message are you sending out?
We are now in the astrological month of Gemini ruled by Mercury, the Messenger. We've been going through a roller coaster of a month in May as so many planets changed direction. Retrograde means turning backward and all the words that have 're' apply to this process. It's a time of revision, renewing, reworking, reflection.

I liken it to a car driving along a road then stopping, reversing and then stopping again. As we reverse we need to look back. We travel over the same piece of road 3 times so on the final pass we know it well. We've seen things we might not have seen the first time as we travelled so fast. This especially applies to Mercury, the messenger planet. So back up your computer, check all travel arrangements and keep patient as delays are very likely during this period. more >

April /May 2008 Where are you heading? What are you initiating?
A new moon acts like the seed for the month. A time of planting the thought, the concept. Spring is the time to set a goal. Be passionate about this goal, let it consume you! Be focused. Aim straight.

I started this newsletter at the beginning of April. Now we are almost at the end. It's been a month of very high activity for me because the energy of Mars was highly significant at the Aries New Moon on April 6th. It started the burst of energy necessary to focus on a single goal. So I have been doing just that. Newsletter continues>

March Full Moon - The Cardinal Cross and Rebirth
As the Sun moves into the sign of Aries we mark a turning point in the year. It is the Astrological New Year and the chart for this Equinox is powerful. The days and nights are of equal length. This is a solar celebration that happens on the same day every year. As Jonathan Cainer points out on his website:-

"Unusually, though, there's a Full Moon too. Auspicious, powerful alignments insist that, whether you're celebrating (and despite all the gloom in the news) we'll all have something to celebrate soon." Newsletter in full>

New Moon in Pisces- What are you absorbing?
A new moon acts like the seed  for the month. A time of planting the thought, the concept. It's as if the planet itself has an intake of breath.  This is inspiration time. For 3 days and nights the moon is invisible as it lies within the Sun, as if in the womb. It is taking in the energy of the Sun, our biggest Star. Its a time when new concepts can be conceived, new ideas can be born.

Uranus
This New Moon on March 7th is in Pisces and unites with Uranus, the planet of change and revolution. Uranus is also the Higher Mind so we are tuned into this energy all month until the next New Moon. Uranus is The Genius, The Magician and rules the aura, so if you have any planet at 16-18 degrees be aware of cleansing any negative energy. more>

February 2008>
Eclipse New Moon in Aquarius- A portal opens
The eclipse on February 7th is a portal – a gateway which is opening for the first time in 18 years in the sign of Aquarius.
Mercury is retrograde in Aquarius until 19th February. It stays in Aquarius from 8th January until15th March. Focus on co-operation, partnering with a group or teamwork.

Are you an Aquarian?
Do you have Aquarian tendencies? Do you belong to groups yet feel like an outsider? Feel you’re left out and not included? Do you resonate with Groucho Marx’s statement “I don't care to belong to a club that accepts people like me as members.” more>

January 2008>
A Year to bring heaven down to earth There are many sacred times in the year when ritual becomes more important than usual. One such time is this weekend- 12th Night January 5th. This is the time when the Three Wise men, (the Magi or Kings) came bringing gifts to the new born baby Jesus. These wise men were astrologers/astronomers who were following the star.

Astrologers calculate that this 'star' was the conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn.
These two planets that are visible with the naked eye which joined in the sign of Pisces in 0007BC. Since Christianity uses the two fishes as its symbol they postulate that Jesus was born in that year. There are several birth charts for Jesus in existence, none are Dec 25th! more>

INSPIRATIONAL ASTRONOMY PROGRAMME
This free programme lets you see the planetary conjunctions taking place in real time. It's amazing. You can whiz backward or forward in time and see the sky on the day of your birth. I have Jupiter in Capricorn (where Jupiter is debilitated) and it was wonderful to see it setting, very boldly in the night sky at my birth. It really put a different perspective on it for me.
