Virgo Season Aug22-Sept22/24

It’s interesting as the sun begins it’s shift from sunny Leo that there is a distinct weather change as we feel a sudden nip in the air and the cooler evenings as the light begins to draw in giving us darker evenings and showing us the slow transition into Autumn - the Autumn Equinox is now only a month away - where did the year go??? I feel that Virgo Season is slower and more considered than the fire and rush and excitement of Leo.

Full (Blue) Moon in Aquarius 19/8/24

And here it is - probably the biggest and most important full super blue moon of this year. Sitting in futuristic and humanitarian Aquarius at 27º 15’ ruled by changeable and erratic Uranus. Change is the theme and change has been an ongoing experience of the past few years. Opening up the realms of what is possible we see things coming to fruition that only recent past were figments of imagination. Uranus knows no bounds. We are asked to expand our minds and think beyond the impossible for nothing is impossible - it is just question of mindset.

New Moon in Leo 4/8/24

This morning the moon and sun aligned to bring a fresh new start full of hope and excitement. The last few months have been testing but we we got through the other side! Leo makes us think of creative pursuits, childlike play and summer days when we relax a while and enjoy ourselves.

Hello Leo 🦁 season and a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to all you lovely shiny Leo people out there! Depending on where you are today you might have to imagine the sun as it seems to have disappeared behind the clouds and rain but REALLY - it's Leo time - embrace the power of the sun ☀️ (it's still there!)

Leo gives us power and courage to go forward boldly. It likes to be in the spotlight. It inspires us and invigorates us and creates change and drive to chase our dreams and realise them!

New Moon in Cancer (conjunct Sirius) 5/7/24

A call from home.

On 5 July at 11.57pm the new moon is casting a light on the pool of the emotional water sign of Cancer at 14º23’ in EXACT alignment with the fixed star Sirius. Cancer asks us to trust our emotions and feel from the heart. It is the natural ruler of the fourth house of home in the astrological wheel. Where is home? How does home feel? What do you want to come home to? What is important in your life?

Gemini Season May21-June20/24

Gemini is a mutable air sign - it rules our third house of communication and governs how we interact with and connect with others. Ruled by quick moving (and thinking) Mercury it is an intellectual sign taking us out of the box!. It carries thoughts on the wind and snatches ideas from the ether. It’s a creative sign I feel (Gemini rising here so therefore my chart ruler) and helps us to verbalise our ideas and tap into our growth potential. Geminis thrive on being flexible - flitting through the air from one thing to another - collecting and generating information.

Full moon in Scorpio - Alchemical Illuminations. 🌝🔮

What a powerful full moon last night! Deep and dark Scorpio reached into the depths of our soul and unearthed our anxieties insecurities and fears. Don’t worry if you feel a little on edge today - this is a deep clearing that started with the eclipses and culminates in this powerful lumination. All that we have suppressed has risen. We have been asked to look at our power and be in authenticity. Standing up for ourselves and creating boundaries. Discovering who we are and what has been holding us back. Discarding criticisms from others and comparisons that have created self doubt and stopped us from expressing ourselves with truth.

Happy Birthday month to all you lovely Taurus people out there. 

Apologies for my lateness - it’s been a busy month! The last eclipse knocked me with flu (it happened direct on my Chiron - talk about a purge) followed by an influx of work (Mars steaming through my 10th - which I will not complain about!). What a rollercoaster!

So hello Taurus!

New Moon Total Solar Eclipse in Aries 8/4/24

What an interesting astrological line up this is. The sun and moon meet in Aries creating the total eclipse over the USA later today. But also when the sun and moon meet it is a time of new moon - so new starts and beginnings which is emphasised even more by being in Aries which is the first astrological sign of the zodiac. Eclipses are like a reset. There’s a lot of planets in the mix with this one so it’s not your average new moon.

New Moon in Pisces 10/3/24

Well it’s a typical wet day here in Ely as it’s pouring down adding to the watery energy of this rather fishy moon! In fact the Pisces house is a little packed with lots of planets adding to the party… Saturn is still in Pisces completing its journey and Neptune (ruler of Pisces) add its dreamy energy into the mix. Ideal day to pull up a blanket, read a good book or get the journal out and scribble down some future ideas and plans. Just BE today ~ it’s not a DOING day.

CHOP WOOD CARRY WATER


Today the moon reaches its culmination in the organised, earthy and grounded sign of Virgo. Opposite the sun in dreamy and emotional Pisces we see a blending of equal and opposite energies in which we look at creating structure in order to fulfil our dreams. For we can but dream… however dreaming alone gets us nowhere - the key is to take our dreams and make measured steps to make them a reality. For who wants to live solely in a dream world. It’s time to get real.

Pisces Season Feb 19-Mar20/24

Today the sun moves into the watery sign of Pisces, ruled by Neptune and the natural ruler of our twelfth house - that of the hidden, the unknown and the nebulous. Represented by two fish swimming in opposite directions it shows us how we have one place in the three dimension and another out (one foot in and one foot out) into the spiritual unknown realm. Hovering between two worlds the conscious and the subconscious Pisces asks up to look deep and go within to listen to our heart and our intuition and follow this through in the physical world that we live in.
