Simplify, simplify, simplify
I recently had lunch with a spiritual friend who helps to keep me sane and questioning things. I wrote the latest astrology blog before our meeting, but I now want to underline its message even more since he has confirmed that many spiritual sages have been conveying the same things. If you’re waiting for things to calm down or go…
WTF Life?!
Yesterday’s total lunar eclipse in Leo triggered issues of self-expression and individuality and how that fits with what society wants or seems to require. This is awkwardly combined with the awareness of where we might not be taking good enough care of ourselves or nurturing our families and home life while balancing social roles. Eclipses feel like the universe is…
The party’s over!
What was previously unthinkable is now up for consideration. What you thought you knew and wanted is now open to question and total transformation in 2019. The party is over--let the fun begin!
Astrological Houses through the Zodiac ~ Capricorn
Saturn in Capricorn, one of the signs it rules, represents authority, integrity, and structure and can slow things down with its conservative, meticulous, and serious nature. It brings a status-oriented, disciplined, and ambitious nature that is willing to work hard for what it wants to achieve. For Aries Sun and Ascendant: This involves your 4th house of family, parents, residence,…

What does it mean to be fully aligned?
Living in alignment with yourself and your chosen purpose is the only sane response to an insane world where truth and lies are nearly indistinguishable.
A lovely Full Moon at the Winter Solstice
This is the second of five consecutive Full Moons happening in the very first degree of a sign, which emphasises the Cardinal energy of the Capricorn Sun and Cancer Moon in opposition, as well as the natural impetus for change brought about at the time of the Solstice.
Change and Permanence
I’m back in Rishikesh after several years’ absence, slowly taking in all the remarkable changes (I hesitate to say developments) that have happened here since 2013. The local businesses are being crowded out by bigger commercial ventures and chains of cafés and restaurants that render the small city a more homogenised version of itself. While there is still a lot…
What do you believe?
Today we honour the New Moon in Sagittarius, which sets the scene for taking action and maybe even taking risks on big new ideas and plans following a bit of a lull in enthusiasm over the past few weeks. No need to wait for 2019 – the energy is here with us already and we can set ourselves up to…
