 The long awaited, long maligned year that the Mayan Calendar ends. Though I don’t personally believe most of the hype around this event, I do think it signifies a turning point for the human race and the planet we live on.

Happy New Year!

May 2012 be filled with joy, beauty, illumination, love, and prosperity on every level as well as everything you hope and wish for.

This year starts out with the Moon in starting-out Aries. It’s a great day to usher in new beginnings, setting intentions for what you want to manifest this year.

Namaste.

I’ve had so little time for this blog this year, I’m still amazed (and grateful) that people seem to still be subscribing to it…! Thank you! 2011 — what a year for everyone! In all, I would say that I’ve had a good one in spite of the chaos and anxiety swirling everywhere. I’ve tried [...]

Happy New Year to you all!

I personally don’t think it is the end of us this year, though there are some intense aspects in store for us earthlings in the coming months….

But let’s not worry about that on the first day of the new year.  The Moon in Aries pulls the attention

I like the principle of the Sankofa Bird, which says that in order to understand the future we must understand the past.  When I see a new client I always go back over the past five years or so to see where they’ve been before I can help them to see what the future might hold, and the same holds true for global predictions.  The Greeks held the same principle in their god Janus, who looks both forwards and backwards and rules the month of January – the first month of the year.

To understand what happened in 2011 we have to go back to early 2008 when Pluto entered Capricorn and began the contraction that is now spreading around the world and creating one economic crisis after another as country after country implements…

Capricorn

With the Sun in your sign you’ve got added confidence & plenty of charm. You’ll easily stand out from the crowd so aim to impress.

Aquarius – With love &  beauty goddess Venus in your sign you’re keen for pampering as well as romance. Being affectionate enhances your love life.

Pisces – Delays are possible in key partnerships as Mars retrogrades in your relationship sector. Be patient with others and enjoy time alone.

Aries – The Sun and Mercury in your career sector boost your confidence and networking skills. Put your best work forward – it’ll get noticed.

Taurus – Jupiter moves forward in your sign bringing opportunities for growth, change &  expansion. Stretch beyond your comfort zone.

Gemini – Shared finances, debt, taxes &  investments are highlighted. Under Mercury’s influence it’s time to get paperwork + budgets organised.…

You won’t need to rattle your noisemakers to welcome the new year. The Moon is in Aries today, and that’s noise enough. There’s a lot of energy in today’s vibe, though not a lot of focus, since the Moon makes no classic aspects to other planets. When Aries energy surges to the fore issues of [...]

Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us. (Hal Borland).Last New Year’s Eve I posted some predictions for 2011 from around the net and via my tarot deck. (Relevant post is HERE). First 3 featured were, very predictably, winners.They were part of a list drawn up by John Derbyshire, who is a contributor editor of National

On the last day of the year the Moon moves from the last sign of the zodiac, Pisces, into the first, Aries. What a perfect metaphor: Out with the old- in with the new. The day starts in an atmosphere of universal connectedness and moves to a mood of fiery action. The mood picks up fire and speed applying into an aspect of ease with Mercury in Sagittarius and an opportunity for the aesthetic charge of humanitarian pleasantry from Venus in Aquarius. In the immortal words of the song used in the animated movie “Madagascar”: I like to move it, move it.
