Karmic Dilemmas
Recently, a client has suggested that certain behavior patterns she recognizes in herself, somehow feel ‘fated’. This prompted me to dust off some work that I’d done on karmic ‘stuff’ a while ago. Points for initial consideration: General shape of the natal chart – looking for empty spaces (i.e. quadrants or hemispheres rather than single houses).…

Dark Shadows (aka Saturn)
The client’s chart upon which I’m now concentrating has Aquarius rising. This means that the chart ruler is Saturn, which is now undergoing a bit of a battering by transiting Pluto. In keeping with this challenge, I thought it useful to revisit how Saturn fares in each of the twelve signs and houses. The following…

Date with Fate & Water Houses Planets
I’m currently doing a chart for a client who not only has lots of planets in the 8th house but also a key planet in the 12th. Hence, I thought it useful to revisit symbolism associated with the ‘water houses’ (4th, 8th, 12th) – the following comes from a lecture given by Liz Greene for…

USA Headed for 2nd Civil War?
The last time Neptune entered Aries was 13 April 1861, the exact date when the fall of Fort Sumter, marked the commencement of the first Civil War. In early 2025, Neptune will enter Aries again for the first time since 1861. Does this mean America will suffer another civil war? Maybe, and maybe not. Although…

Solar Return for Ms K 2016-17 / Be Careful!
The Solar Return chart gives a brief snapshot of a 12 month period (birthday-to-birthday). Such predictive techniques are necessarily short and sweet giving you, the client, the chance to fill in the details for yourself. The following is for Ms K’s – 2016-2017: You’ve been busy thinking not only about others but also how your…

North Korea+United States = War?
Trump and North Korea share bad blood. If North Korea has it in for the US then equally, everything for which North Korea stands gets Trump’s metaphorical ‘goat’. Keywords include: eccentric actions, upset, and excitement. Although the US may be prone to making threats, it does not usually enjoy a taste for war. However,…

Do you have a complex? 100% chance that you do.
What is a complex? Charcot – identifies a complex as ‘an idea’ or ‘group of ideas’ that ‘settles in the mind in the fashion of parasites’. Janet – suggests that a complex is an ‘idée fixe subconsciente’ that, having split off from the personality as a whole, wields enormous (unconscious) power. Freud- attributes to complexes…

What might you personally expect from the upcoming eclipse?
On 21 August 2017, there will be a total eclipse of the Sun. This will occur at 28 Leo 55. Whilst these eclipses are not exactly rare, (most calendar years have four eclipses, two of which must be solar eclipses), they do tend to attract a good deal of attention. This upcoming solar eclipse has…

Where might Trump stand for the 2020 presidential elections?
Some believe it’s smooth sailing for Mr Trump through the 2020 presidential elections. But based on his 2019 and 2020 Solar Return (SR) charts (both suggesting lack of energy), I suggest that he won’t get that far. Although in his 2019 SR chart, Mr Trump has no angular planets (or planets making tight Ptolemaic aspects to…
