Kindness, sympathy, the expression of true love and affection, and a high level of emotion, are characteristic. A powerful protective instinct can at times create a claustrophobic atmosphere within a relationship. A tendency to look nostalgically to the past is also frequent, and this may need conscious correction if the subject is not to reach...
It is commonly believed that Grand Trines will cause you to become apathetic. Astrologer Bill Tierney discovered, through the use of chart analysis, that even though the Grand Trine might be beneficial to certain people, he is of the opinion that it could also hinder their potential and that, in some cases, it may be...
Eclipses are intriguing in astrology, but I believed I was the only one who didn’t have an eclipse tale until I started writing this article. Other astrologers frequently tell dramatic stories about how an eclipse landed on a natal planet and set off a shitstorm, causing an event to blow up in their face, triggering...
If you obsessively seek the approval of others in social situations, the fear of disapproval may result in holding back your ability to spread sunshine and light. You might feel trapped in self-absorption when you withhold your ability to inspire others with your warm and gregarious nature. You may censor yourself by expressing a type...
I was jotting down notes on Dane Rudhyar’s piece about Uranus when I realised something. I found myself thinking about the war as I was reading it. Vladimir Putin launched the largest war in Europe since World War Two on the justification that modern, Western-leaning Ukraine was a continual threat and Russia could not feel...
While studying the chart of Blanched’ Antigny (a lady of her day in the 1800s) and reading the biography that accompanied it, I realised that she had such a fantastic life filled with adventure, lovers (and plenty of them), and a little bit of fame and fortune. When you see someone’s life that might be...
The conventional interpretation of the Grand Trine in astrology has long been associated with notions of good fortune and unique gifts bestowed upon individuals fortunate enough to possess this celestial configuration in their birth charts. This astrological pattern manifests when three planets form harmonious 120-degree trines with each other. While the traditional view holds that...
Question: With Neptune, the distinction between the dream world and deception is blurred. It starts out as a fantasy, bolstered by an idealised version of what “could” happen in the future. Neptune shines a stunning, yet psychic and strong light on things that require transformation and healing; yet, we are in no way “victims” of...
You have the opportunity to play astro-sleuth in this case and deliver a verdict. The following is an example of a guy who, although still a teenager, was found guilty of starting a hotel fire. Later on in the case when he was released it was alleged that he had been wrongfully convicted. Despite these...
A person with Venus in Virgo is often extremely romantic, and yearns for perfection in the one he/she loves. These people may put their beloveds on a pedestal and worship them. An image for Venus in Virgo is of a goddess dressed in flowing white robes. With Venus in Virgo, you may either aspire to...
In a previous piece, I discussed the Pluto-Moon transit, and I mentioned that Johnny Depp had transiting Pluto conjunct his Moon during his relationship with Amber Heard. I’m not sure who’s on the right side of the Johhny and Amber dispute; it’s possible that they’re both as bad as each other. The transit of Pluto...
Question: I frequently see people downplaying the ascendant and its relevance in a chart. It’s sometimes referred to as a mask, a superficial layer that someone throws on when you first meet them. I’ve even seen some claim that this aspect of the chart is false and that you are a blatant knockoff of the...
