You may feel that you were losing the plot last week, or that events in the world were going round in circles. Has there been any progress in Libya, you might have wondered? And what is going on in Japan? In the UK, the government announced that they would not immediately be implementing their new [...]

In and Out Blogging on the Radical Virgo Website
Radical Virgo (aka) Joyce Mason caught my eye two years ago with the zany humour and upbeat pics on her website. I like her style of presenting profound material in a lighthearted way. She welcomed me into the astrological blogging community, and for that I am eternally grateful. Reading other blogs is a vital part [...]

Within hours of Uranus entering Aries, a large scale disaster unfolded on our screens coming from Japan: earthquake, followed by tsunami and then nuclear plant meltdown. The national chart of Japan shows the sword of Damocles which has been present in the form of a Grand Cross between the natal Mercury, Saturn, Uranus and Chiron. [...]

And the event of the week goes to – Egypt. But the unravelling started in Tunisia when Mars moved into Aquarius, and just before Jupiter moved into Aries. How did Tunisia come to occupy that ignitory role? In its natal chart, its birth being during the year of the Suez crisis, there is a powerful [...]

With Jupiter jumping ship from Pisces and into the fire of Aries, it is off with the old (3 U.K. resignations – Alan Johnson, Andy Coulson and Brian Cowen) and on with the new: Ed Balls (with his Venus at the beginning of Aries) and gloriously clutzy Sagittarian Miranda Hart who received 3 trophies at [...]

Fine-tuning of the Royal Wedding plans occurred this week, with the announcement of a time of day – 11 a.m. on 29th April. This changes slightly earlier comments I have made about the wedding day. Jupiter conjuncts Mars on the Midheaven of that chart now, denoting a public event backed by a good level of [...]

Julian Assange was demonstrating the power complex of his natal Jupiter/Pluto sextile this week in a remark he made about it being unlikely that David Cameron would allow his extradition to the U.S. His whole position in relation to the leaks all along has shown a man who is 100% confident of his own power.
