  • What Eric the Vampire taught me about Virgo…or how Virgo is like the Harbour Bridge…

    Nan: The downstairs is clean…it’s been wiped. Eric: I’m a Virgo, I like to be neat. True Blood, Series 3 I have been home sick over the last couple of days and used the time productively to catch up on series 3 of True Blood (my guilty pleasure, and yes, I am very definitely team…

  • What About Me? New Moon in Virgo

    in

    As I write this, I am propped up in bed with my laptop. Hubby has just brought me in a coffee and some toast (bloody good hotel this one) and I am looking with a mix of disdain, frustration and annoyance at the patch of wall above my window which needs painting after the curtains…

  • Integral (to the project)

    Virgo in the Body In the body Virgo rules the digestive system, in particular the digestive tract and the small intestine- or rather all those processes which break down the food we eat, so that the nutrients can be absorbed and assimilated into the organs and parts of the body that they will do the…

  • Are Your Planets Keeping You Fat- Virgo

    I admire Virgos attention to detail. I wish I had it. I will set up a spread-sheet or a tracker to meticulously plan how I will lose the weight I need to lose and by when. I will track calories and kilograms and exercise. I will follow this and fill in the details for ages,…

  • Take My Breath Away: A very mini lesson in Medical Astrology

    Warning: Medical Astrology stuff ahead…some of this can be relatively advanced, but Medical Astro is an area I am hugely interested in, so please bear with me for a bit!   This week I have been laid relatively low with a bout of late winter asthma. As asthma bouts go, I wouldn’t call this one…

  • It’s all in the Fine Print…

    The Moon is about to move into Cancer, so any Lunar types out there, be prepared to step away from the chocolate, the fridge or whatever your personal poison is. Cancer has an affinity with dairy foods (dare I say it, mothers milk…) and white foods or comfort foods- not all of which are great…

  • White is the new black

    White is the new black. Five little words that will strike abject horror into the hearts of anyone who, like me, has a compromised Venus. I don’t avoid white because I feel that it doesn’t suit me, but rather because it rarely stays white. I inevitably spill red wine if I am wearing white. Even…

  • Are Your Planets Keeping You Fat? Leo

    Over the past few years I have been addicted to The Tudors– the lavish production loosely based on the Tudor King, Henry VIII. Anyways, despite some uncertainty regarding birth details, most experts agree that old Henry had a Cancer Sun, which probably explains his insatiable need to bolster his family tree. Given that Cancer rules…

  • Never Ever Have I Ever Felt So Low- Saturn/Moon Transits

    by

    in ,

    Saturn represents structures and boundaries. We know that. The Moon represents our emotions, the way in which we unconsciously or sub consciously respond to the crap that life throws at us. Saturn asks us to work hard and achieve, one step at a time. Saturn asks us to grow up. The Moon relies on feelings…

  • JFDI, GF and other life lessons

    The other day I wrote about believing your feelings. That was then…back when the Moon is in Pisces… Over the weekend when the Moon is in Taurus I will tell you to listen to what your body is telling you… This morning when the rain was pissing down outside and the cold air formed fog…
