The Sun enters Leo on the 22nd, Mercury is also in Leo. Venus and Mars are in Gemini. The solar eclipse on the 22nd is in Cancer. This eclipse pours energy into the home and family domain over the next six months. It’s a time when people might be thinking about renovating their homes or if they’ve been holding off from buying or selling property, definite decisions will be made. This eclipse will be the longest total solar eclipse that will occur in the 21st century and will last for up to 6 minutes and 39 seconds. A longterm campaign could end in faiulre but there’ s nothing like new opportunities to take people’s minds off their disappointment. Mercury makes a rendezvous with Mars making this a mentally creative time with ideas being acted on immediately with great results.

Mercury is now travelling with the sun in Cancer. Venus is now in Gemini and Mars whizzes through the last few degrees of Taurus. Jupiter continues retrograde in Aquarius. The Moon will visit the signs Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. The full moon and eclipse on the 7th is in Capricorn. Expect the next six months to be a time when hard work, duty and responsibility will be high on the list of most people’s priorities. There’s an altogether more purposeful feel to the week. Projects designed to help people who have no aim in life and no way to go are promoted. The message trying to get across is being able to adapt to circumstances and surroundings. The aim being to bring a message of hope and reality into our world. People will come together to fight for a special cause and large numbers rally to support a campaign to undo something that never should have happened. Some changes seem to happen urgently but with special reason.

  Mars in Aries links with the Jupiter/Neptune conjunction and longstanding agreements are likely to be going through some changes now. Everyone will be showing more respect of other people’s views and beliefs and this more understanding attitude will bring positive breakthroughs in social affairs. There is still a long way to go but old social archetypes are being broken down and will eventually be replaced with new systems.

  Nothing will happen very quickly with Mercury still retrograde but this week, everyone should start thinking about projects they want to start in the months ahead and devise a game plan.

After all, Jordan is an astute business woman, strong willed, earthy, emanating that renowned sex appeal in lorry loads. Peter literally loved her “hands on” approach to celebrity-hood it made her a legend in her own time, and he wanted part of it. She had a tendency to stick her heels in when it came to getting her way too, Peter once found that so darned attractive. When it came to his career Lady Luck had been on Peter’s side also, he had a mission to channel creative sensitivity into his music, and not give in to moments of self doubt when it came to his talent. A skew whiff Capricorn influence made him ultra sensitive though, aware of other people’s emotions, sometimes unable to define where he began and others ended. In fact, he would never understand why Jordan found his high voltage angst so difficult to take, why her mouth seemed to droop when he just raised his voice a tad. After all, he was a guy who needed space to do his “creative thing” and channel good pop music into the world. At the very beginning of his career in Australia he had been was picked out on a talent show and his single “Gimme a Little Sign” hit the charts. Even back then he had realised it was best to “strike while the iron was hot” and he “struck” when he met Jordan on “I’m a celebrity get me out of here”, unafraid to risk an “attitude” he was the kind of geezer that did not mind flirting publicly; and he was Jordan’s perfect match as a result. It was not so difficult at first. Nobody could have denied they enjoyed the same high flying lifestyle.

Katie’s success had initiated with glamour, and Peter liked that. But that glamour was high maintenance, i.e. breast jobs, nail jobs, hair extension jobs, eyelash extension jobs, a constant obsession with the “look”. Peter understood the time spend on her image was important to her success. She wanted to woo her audience in documentaries such as “Jordan, Living with a dream”, “Model Mum, Jordan”, and “You Don’t Even Know Me”. Their family soap “Katie and Peter” had been seen in the United States and was aired on “E”, the fans had been galvanized by it. There was no doubt Venus, the Planet of Lurve, was on Jordan’s side, and it literally glittered fame and fortune all over her, looking after her luck department more than efficiently. Stardom came easily; in fact if Jordan had only realised she was a natural with every fibre of her being, she would not have been concerned about spending all that time holding the public’s attention, and life might have been more relaxing. Katie never understood why Peter did not realise their life was a celebration. She had never really liked facing the heavy duty aspects of human existence, she knew about suffering, and wanted it to remain on the edge of their lives as long as possible.

Why, therefore, did not Peter recognise her Scorpio moon capacity to protect them all, to encircle their family with such solidity? Why did he only note her rather direct way of pointing out a fault, and get angry when her bluntness offended people, who said she was rude. She was the one who looked after their finances. She was an old fashioned gal deep down, a good family organiser, making sure they all enjoyed a “high on the hog” lifestyle without going over the edge? But why did Peter not acknowledge her, understand her, after all they both enjoyed gossiping about other Celebes. They both laughed at the same jokes. Peter asked himself why his beautiful wife did not see how much he focused only on her, she was his glamour queen, that little Katie Price, alias Jordan, the girl he fallen in love with at first sight. She was his soul mate, his beauty in motion, she would intrigue him forever. They got married in 2005 and he became stepfather to Harvey, her son by a previous relationship. He became a doting dad to their two kids Savva, and Princess Tiaamii.

His Mercury in Pisces made him an empathic parental figure, aware of his children’s challenges and supporting them all the way. He always “sensed” what was going on with his family before they did. So what part of their relationship had fallen by the wayside? What had happened? “My Way” was what happened! They both sung that same song. We would not infer that Jordan is bossy, or overly larger than life, we would say her shenanigans draw attention, and she acts them out “Her Way”. We would not say Peter felt he needed attention all for himself; after all they had both sung “A Whole New World” from Walt Disney’s Aladdin together. They had lived an “out of the ordinary” lifestyle, and it had been of great joy to them both, but Peter needed a new challenge, one of his own, one where he was not appearing with Jordan, in other words he needed to do it “His Way!”.
He will always want to work hard, tune into brilliant musical ideas, never cut corners to move on in his musical career. The beautiful Gemini and mesmerizing Piscean were made for each other, and it is our hope that one day they will realise that doing it “Their Way” could overcome the challenges, rather than separate them. We hope they move on together again. But for a while we accept we will not see them in a new family docudrama, the ones that were so unique and such fun. We regret this, but have to say, it has was an amazing ride while it lasted! God bless you both! You made us laugh, you made us giggle, and we hope you will enjoy walking down exciting new roads, even if they are different. God bless ya!

  The sun moves into Gemini on the 20^th and the tempo of our lives will speed up over the next four weeks. Those willing to put more order into their everyday routines are likely to get the best out of this transit.

With Mercury now retrograde in Taurus the situation with regard to travel and transport is not exactly encouraging. The general picture suggests delays and disruptions.  For all of us mistakes caused by hasty action are a potential danger. Accidentally or on purpose, people seem less tactful in what they say. Many little things can go wrong this week and there’s a tendency for everyone to want to move in opposite directions.

  The economic situation will still be under strain with the sun in Taurus linking with Jupiter. A major worry for the Government will be rising unemployment while financial conditions could show yet another sharp downward trend. On a positive note, charitable and philanthropic efforts are likely to achieve success towards the back end of the week when the sun links with Uranus and changes to do with finance and property are likely to take shape.

With the sun in Taurus and Venus and Mars in Aries, May begins on an intensely busy and productive note. We should all curb any inclination to act on impulse as is often the case when there are planets in Aries and follow what the sun in Taurus suggests and that’s to do what common sense tells us to do. The sun’s link with Saturn on the 6^th is likely to suit banks and finance houses. In everyday life we should be focusing on work, responsibility and ways to increase our efficiency.

  Anyone taking on extra commitments should be sure to leave nothing to chance once Mercury turns retrograde on the 7^th. We might all gain greater awareness of any influences in the past that may now be frustrating present goals. Those of us who are dealing with matters of consequence should ask penetrating questions and research thoroughly when the full moon is in Scorpio on the 9^th.

Full Moon in Scorpio

The youngest of six children, her parents were Honduran emigrants; it could not have been easy growing up in a Jewish area of Los Angeles nevertheless. To make things even more challenging, her mother divorced her dad and raised her and her siblings alone, always stressing the importance of a good education to overcome the hardships of life. America once said “Am I Latin? Am I American? What the hell am I? I love my culture and I’m very proud of my culture.”   And her culture made her an extrovert, a fiery go getter. Because the fact is America always knew she wanted, and it was to be a show biz person.

As young as seven years of age she landed a small part in Hamlet. She felt herself vibrate in tune with the excitement of performing as a child, and could not step back from the plate, but embarked on a kind of mission to fulfill her dreams. Her mama was not happy about her choice of career; mama thought acting would be a hard profession, and America would not fulfill her talent.  But America pushed through the obstacles nonetheless, and soon found a role on the Disney channel.  She landed Ugly Betty in 2006, and has not looked back. She has won an Emmy, a Golden Globe, a Screen Actors Guild Award, and more as a result of that casting.
 
She describes getting made up as Ugly Betty as a “Bettification” because she literally transforms physically. It is clear her talent carries her through her identification with Betty, the girl everyone finds unattractive.  We ladies know about the “l look a wreck” syndrome, and America faces it every day on set. Time magazine chose her as one of the ten top performers in the world to make up for hour after excruciating hour in makeup. So how did she do it? What is it about America that makes her so mind-blowingly determined, so optimistic so focused?  Well she has a great immune system, seriously, it takes adaptable, strong energy to keep pushing for what you want in life, and America finds that side of things easy peasy; she has that well ensconced survival gene remember?. 

Mercury in Taurus makes her earthy, a plodder, and ready to take small steps at a time to reach desired outcomes.  In fact, those cute feet of hers are currently planted firmly on the ground.  She will pay attention to the arts, and any recent creative endeavors she wants to be part of, even an artistic avant garde project will interest her to some degree.  She is liked by all, after all she has that lovely bubbly vibe, but don’t mess with her, she will snap your head off!  Venus in Aries will make her want to fall in love with an orchestra playing in the background, she will appreciate bunches of red roses and chocolates. She wants her love life to vibrate with tangos, anticipation and excitement. Grande Passion is what our America aims for.
 
She will shower her beloved one with kisses, and not hang about playing games either, she will be direct and demonstrative, and make sure they know she cares.   Being alone is not her thing. A Mister Gorgeous would have to be around to make her feel a whole lot of woman! She has a warm nature, she needs cuddles!  She might find it difficult however, to push through the romance bit, and on to the Mr. and Fererra bit. 

Venus in Scorpio will tune in with that aforementioned “fight against all odds” gene that is so useful in show biz circles, where the faint hearted end up carrying the golf balls. She “needs” to be in public view, she wants the adulation, and she is not afraid to say so. She has that rather “over sensitive” actressy part to her character on occasions, which could mean a little bit of a temper tantrum on set on the odd occasion. But she pulls herself together and picks up the tab like a true blue professional, so nobody will have it in for her for long. She is young after all.  Jupiter in Capricorn will always pull it together for her, providing her with a work ethic and determination to stay the course with integrity. No mucking about for America Ferrera. 
 
Financially she will do well for herself and her family and friends will share her good fortune. If she can help anyone out she will only be too pleased to do so, she wants to contribute to others’ lives, and she has an idealistic perception of family and friends. With her node in Gemini she has to be careful not to put her foot in her mouth on occasions. To hold back from saying things faster than she thinks them.   She has to be prepared to learn the art of diplomacy and ponder wisely on what other people mean, before jumping to conclusions or fast retorts. She is an astonishing young actress, but although she has hit the big time, she still has a lot to learn, and she would be the first to tell you that.  Whatever she says, you can be sure she says it is with warmth and sincerity and you will always totally believe her. Especially when those big brown “eyes” fill with tears. 

We wonder whether America made a few risky investments, because it looks like over the next year she will be moving her money around, trying to find the right outlet for more profit. 2009 will be less of a year for “lurve” and more of a year for sorting things out from baseline when it comes to her economics and investments.  Someone will help her through changes, and she will find the cooperation helps her to win through odds.  Some emotional changes are on the cards for her too, it is likely that a steady relationship will be put on hold till the end of the year. 

Her career will continue to be remarkable with a well appointed Mars dishing out the energy to push her through fiery hoops.  She has a lot to look forwards to and so do we. She will continue to entertain, make us laugh and fascinate us. She is an original, a true star in her own “very young” right.  What will happen after “Ugly Betty”, “Beautiful America Fererra” we are certain, and she will hit the big time with unusual roles, and that mind-blowing talent! Go for it America!

Both Venus and Mars are now in Aries energizing relationships and new projects as well as bringing youthful exuberance into all our efforts. No matter what age you are, there’s a sense of excitement linked with new beginnings. The trouble is it can all start to get a bit unrealistic especially in areas where there are too many chiefs. Arguments are likely when it soon becomes apparent one person wants one thing and another person, something completely different!

  What started as a combined effort turns into an every man in it for himself scenario when Venus and Mars both link with Pluto bringing a degree of secrecy and deceit into transactions. Political or government secrets may be leaked or revealed causing an explosive reaction and some embarrassment to those in power. Conceivably those who are blamed or accused of wrong-doings may find cunning ways to talk themselves out of it after the 30^th once Mercury enters Gemini.

Add on her Winged Messenger Mercury’s foray into Scorpio and she is thorough, with a unique capacity to “problem bust”, able to see solutions when everyone else is banging their heads against a brick wall. We would not call her stubborn but certainly determined. She began her career as a management trainee, her obvious talent shone like the proverbial sun, and before you could say “Chief Executive” she had risen up the ranks to become Controller of Children’s and Daytime Programmes for ITV. Obviously her talents are exceptional, with that moon in Libra they demonstrate a knack for powerful stances and organisational chutzpah. Venus in Saggy will make her the woman with her finger on the pulse, and an array of useful contacts and gifted, stellar friends. Her aim would be to travel if not in body, in mind and vision. She has broad sweep perceptions of reality. When it comes to her personal life she expects those she adores to be their own person, able to pay the bills, bang a nail in the wall etc. She would not like you to throw a fit on her at any time, whether it be jealousy or just because you banged your toe on the coffee table.  

Mars in Cancer would help her out, she loves her home, and she would have taken out the best insurance policy possible on it. She also likes people in it to appreciate it, and pay attention to the smallest detail, happy when people note the new dining table, especially when her family is seated around it on Christmas Day. Occasion is something she appreciates. She has more than risen up the ladder to success; she is a trapeze artist par excellence becoming Controller of Arts and Entertainment at Channel Four, and subsequently  morphing into her present post, as Head of Channel Five, with many exciting new ideas up her sleeve by the minute. Her origins are Liverpool; she went to a local comprehensive and a boy’s private school. She attended Girton College Cambridge and read of all things “Geography” Yet there was always something stimulating, exciting and inspiring about her stance on life. She had a secret plan right from the start, and she was not letting on. She just worked consistently for it, Jupiter in Capricorn giving her a solid take on the realities of life, even at an early age. In fact one could say that her maturity was far beyond her years way back when, and enabled her to deal with any challenge with the wisdom of one much older.

She has not one drop of fear in her, which is a gift bestowed on her by the Gods, and enables her to take reasonable risks, see thru obstacles, and overcome the kind of red tape that would have many of us running for the Bahamas. She rests, when she has done the job. She holidays because she wants to have fun, not because she is stressed out by the job. Stress is not a word she is prone to use. But it is her north node in Virgo that could sum her up. Deep down she feels she is on a mission. She wants to bring news to humanity, educate them, give them facts and figures to ponder over and assess. Details they can work with, and analyse. To do this she knows she has to be well informed, able, and her stirring mission is to be just that.  

In 2009 money issues will be coming up for Dawn Airey. There is something powerful in the air, a prospect of enlarging her scope of expertise in some way. She will remain focused and find a new element to operate within, perhaps a reorganisation within Channel Five, or a great show that will pick up quota. There could be real transformation on the cards, ways forward that will stimulate and even challenge those around her. She will burn the midnight oil as she works even harder, but she will feel inspired and elated in the process. She is on the path to the “castle on top of the hill”, and nobody will stand in her way to get there. Good on you Dawn! We are right behind you!

She is unconquerable, the kind of lass that could stand up to an earthquake, a forest fire, a tidal wave and an illness like cancer and come out virtually unscathed! In fact, Sharon has become a cult figure after fighting a bout with cancer; she battled with it in front of MTV cameras in her usual documentary style. In fact, during her onslaught on the disease she picked up award for her show The Osbournes, and attended the Creative Arts Emmys in Los Angeles, receiving the best TV reality show award. In the meantime, back home Ozzy fell to pieces with anxiety over her disease, and their son Jack attempted suicide as a result of chronic depression. She kept going, and survived triumphant and tougher than usual ready to hit the big time, her son and husband resiliently by her side! Her managerial genius goes unquestioned, and is part and parcel of the success of the Osbournes, a live broadcast of their screwball family life.
 
It was the show that relaunched Ozzy as a cult figure, and with their acting out kids and twelve rather messy dogs in the limelight, it proved to be magic. It was obviously another arrow to Sharon’s bow, and has earned her an estimated £11.5 million. She has since been appearing on X Factor, America’s Got Talent, Rock of Love Charm School and The Osbournes Reloaded. Unlike most people, this woman does not possess a fear bone in her body; timidity is not her second name. She is almost extraterrestrial in her sturdiness and feet on the ground attitude. After having extensive plastic surgery, she once quipped “Anyone who says their face lift doesn’t hurt is a liar, I feel like I have spent the night with an axe murderer!”  Like Ozzy she is an oddity, someone who does not fit into the proverbial box, yet manages to fascinate us all with her fiery, quirky take on life, marriage and existence. She is a stalwart soul, who exudes matriarchal chapazz. 

Her kids and Ozzy adore her for she is a mum with the most, a mum on the warpath, a true soldier when it comes to dealing with the challenges of family life. Her vibrant Mars in Sagittarius will force her to tell it how it is, and will have encouraged her outbursts on X Factor when she railed against Chris Tarrant. Her reactions are always excessive when Ozzy or her kids are criticised. She has been known to send boxes of excrement to those who verbally denigrate her family. Her energy is explosive, in the good and in the bad, sometimes disproportionate. She cannot strap that part of her down, give it a cup of chamomile tea and say “have a nap”. There is nothing moderate about Sharon. Yet Ozzy should turn to Mr. Jupiter every day, and say “Thank God you are here Mr. Jupiter, and thank the Lord you are in Taurus”, because that aspect helps Sharon create a luxurious lifestyle and millions in the bank with her more than astute business sense. In fact her grounded know-how consistently maintains the Osbournes in the style they are accustomed to. She is a genius with the purse strings, and has an in-bred capacity to recognise a good deal when she sees it.
 
If it were for Ozzy, whose creative genius wanders around in the nether regions, they would now be down the Job Centre. In the old days when she was fighting for Ozzy, making sure he got the good gigs, she was a Boadicea lookalike, leading the troop’s forwards into battle. But that Mercury in Libra still belies a soft and gentle side, that her husband and kids know so very well, a part of her that wants to keep the peace, make things right, understand,  forgive and forget, she is in fact a “Menisci”, Yiddish for great person,  whose fiery character has enabled her to act “Super Woman” and stand up to all the odds flung in her face, including her violent childhood and sometimes difficult marriage to Ozzy  Her Karmic lesson is that of the peace maker, the woman who holds the key to creating harmony, if she so chooses. Her North node will encourage her to forgive, and let bygones be bygones! These next couple of years will see her even more in the public eye expressing emotions out there for all to see, probably due to her new show. She will realise that all her efforts to build a rock solid future for her kids and a space for Ozzy’s talents will not have fallen on arid ground. She will continue on, fighting any odds, and standing by her guns. We cheer you on Sharon.

Sagittarians are not known for their self control but for their charisma, they can be excessive, immensely humorous, and consistently outrageous. Jim Morrison of the Doors was a Saggy, as was Jimmi Hendrix, both were rebels against the status quo and both died of excessive drug overdoses. So it was clear Ozzy needed structure and order to continue to keep his show on the road. In fact his earlier shenanigans as a heavy metal artiste were due to a “Rock Hero” lifestyle and extreme performance stress, resulting in alcoholism, drug ingestion and wacky stage pranks. You see no matter how nutty our friend might seem, and was, and sometimes still is, we repeat, he is a Sagittarian, the Archer, half man half horse galloping across the plains, and in Ozzy’s case not knowing exactly where he was going. And guess who gave him the emotional steadiness he so needed to see direction? His wife Sharon of course.

That destined meeting with his soul mate was organised by his Moon in Capricorn. Ms. Moon wanted emotional stability for our friend, wanted to make sure that lines were drawn around his unbalanced lifestyle. Ozzy’s Venus in Scorpio would have been nothing other than devastatingly attractive to the female of the species when he was a hip young rocker. Female fans and rock groupies would have been falling at his feet. Mars in Scorpio would have assured that sexual charisma, that powerful capacity to live to the hilt, that passion, that huge energy and original talent. Sharon took one look at him and knew she had found the man of her life, but he was a wild man, and they had a wild relationship. Shindigs were the order of the day. Plates flew, they beat each other up, and she never let him faze her. All she could do was manage his career, as she fell more and more in love with him. It was Sharon who kept him on the straight and narrow when he was sacked by her dad from Black Sabbath due to excessive substance abuse. Sharon picked up his career and threw it into the media light, Sharon who stood by him when the lyrics of his song “Suicide Solution”, were blamed for two American teens taking their own lives. 

His excesses could be nominated borderline depravity by some. Certainly the American Christians scorned him, and claimed he had dealings in the black arts, and worse. He once shot all his family’s pets “I was taking drugs so much I was a wreck. The final straw came when I shot all our cats. We had about 17, and I went crazy and shot them all. My wife found me under the piano in a white suit, a shotgun in one hand and a knife in the other” In fact his deep need to express himself to a mesmerized audience, accounted for the “bat” incident, when he picked up what he thought was a rubber bat thrown on the stage by a member of the public - it was a real bat, and it bit him! Yet now in the 21st century, Jupiter in Capricorn, the beneficial Jupiter that has been running after him all his life, has taken our Ozzy in hand   This kind of Jupiter will make sure he is a family man, devoted to his wife, so much so the thought of losing her sends him into fits of desperation and tearful sobbing. That his endearing, rather bemused role as the father on the hit show The Osbournes conquers the hearts of millions, when he becomes everyone’s favorite, good bad guy.

When he was invited to the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, President Bush noted Osbourne and jibed: “The thing about Ozzy is, he’s made a lot of big hit recordings – ‘Party with the Animals’, ‘Sabbath, Bloody Sabbath, ‘Facing Hell’, ‘Black Skies’ and ‘Bloodbath in Paradise’. Ozzy, Mom loves your stuff!” Finally in his old age, Ozzy has won over the teachers who did not believe in him when he was a kid with learning problems. Okay, so his health is no longer a hundred percent tops but he has finally hit the massive, big time. He had his first number one UK hit singing that Black Sabbath song “Changes” with his daughter Kelly after his motorbike accident not so long ago. And currently he is one of the richest men in the UK. The awards keep rolling in due to the bright rays of kind old Jupiter, so he really need not look back, not unless he wants to of course! Over the next couple of years Ozzy will still be striking out in new directions, following his guiding light Sharon, who that stubborn Capricorn moon so wanted him to meet all those years ago. We can only say “Life begins at 60 Ozzy!” and your life is a very unique and precious one!

 
He likes to camp it up, but has said “I just think gay people need to get over themselves. Just because you’re gay and on the telly doesn’t mean you’re a role model. I’m just a comedian. That’s all I am…. What am I meant to do? Do I go down the Julian Clary route and talk about fisting and poppers? I don’t talk about being gay and I think what better equality for gays than that?” His rise to fame included appearances at Edinburgh shows and in 2007 he toured the UK, but what is it that makes this fun chappie click with his audience so resolutely? Well of course Gemini as his sun sign for starters, Mr. Quicksilver, the winger messenger, makes sure that mind of his remains alert, bright, and perceptive. Just as a note of interest, as far as education is concerned Alan is certainly no shirker; he has a BA (Hons) in Drama and Theatre Studies from Middlesex University. His moon in Capricorn would make him a grounded sort of chap, able to burn the midnight oil when it comes to research and picking up new and original information. 
He has a sense of competition, of being the best, yet he is also someone who hates to see others hurting each other, and cannot quite get his head around humanity’s sicker traits like torture, racism, sexism etc. The split side of his Gemini picture might make it a bit difficult for him to integrate the more materialistic aspects of life with a higher, more comedic vision. He might get lost along the way, and it has to be said his road to success has not always been paved in gold, especially regarding a love life, which could be strewn with conflict. He is inclined to worry about it even though his emotional nature is adventurous, experimental. In fact he is the kind of guy who likes to carry on a long term conversation with the object of his affections, and gets upset when things get emotionally taxing and less than fascinating as a result. He doesn’t like a classic relationship, but he wants closeness, so there are some contradictions for him to deal with, especially as he is inclined to get sudden crushes, due to a fiery Mars placement. It has to be faced, our friend is basically an intellectual, who, as we inferred, can grasp the more complex absurdities of existence to get his audience laughing.
 
His intelligence is an advantage when it comes to a fun take on reality, less of an advantage when he worries about all the possible things that could go wrong. He will ruminate, more than excessively, until he has brought up some extremely creative and original quip. He is also well grounded enough not to allow himself to be overcome by fraught thoughts. In fact his comedic talents help him to shift focus off his own darker side. A lovely Venus in Gemini showers him with originality, he is one of those guys who can captivate you without you realising it. It is not unusual to see rapt faces staring up at him the during one of his performances as Mars in Leo will literally lift him into the moment, making each performance vibrant with intensity, In other words he just must express himself, if he does not he will get hit with an attack of the blues and could be sulky. There is a sense that this is a guy who likes to keep on the move, he would fidget, and he does not want to remain stuck in one boring place. 
As a kid his mum would have yelled “Alan for goodness sake stop wiggling!” But it is his north node in Scorpio that closes the deal. This is a man who will be enigma to his friends, there is something about him that is difficult to suss, perhaps because we do not realise that he is on a sort of mission, and it is to plunge into the depths of human nature, pull it up and then flash it in front of us, realistically, satirically, derisively, mocking us, in any event, making us laugh. Over the next year his career will become even more than well established, he will take on interesting work projects, even more tours, he will be in demand in other words. He cannot fail to be a cross between a camp comedian and a social commentator, he has us giggling, intrigued, curious and over the next couple of years his genial take will put him on the international map. Alan, we love to have fun with you, when you are around!

With that hard working moon in Capricorn, Arnold not only dreamt of success, he pushed to make it happen. He had grown up a tough young man, well built, tall 6ft 2”, with a charismatic presence. Dedicated body building would become his raison d’être and when he won the Junior Mr. Europe title in 1965 he knew he was on the right track. But he was still dreaming “USA”, determined to win Mr. Universe, which he saw as a ticket to America. His lucky break was a meeting with the Londoner Charles Bennett, a competition judge impressed with Arnie during a British body building competition. Bennett began to train our hero, helping him increase his “muscle definition”. The training paid off; in 1967 Arnold became the youngest Mr. Universe ever, at only 20 year’s old, going on to win the competition seven times!  It has to be said Mr. Mars in Gemini would have helped Arnie push himself on so determinedly, and strive to fulfil the American dream, making his mind quick, his energy high. With his Mr. Universe successes well under his belt, Arnie confidently moved to the USA winning the Mr. Olympia title in New York City. Part of his dream had already come true!  The best was to come!

He had a couple of romantic liaisons in the US initially, but his magical meeting with Maria Shriver, his future wife, and niece of John Kennedy, sealed his fate. Maria must have been taken aback when she first got to know Arnie. Our big, heroic, muscle bound hero was in essence a softy when it came to love, so sensitive, the slightest cruel comment would have him turning away, hurt. In fact Venus in Cancer will make him a guy that yearns for emotional security and a happy home life, the one he did not have as a child. Above and beyond his fame, Maria knows her Arnie is a man who needs a good woman standing by him! Nobody can deny Arnold has huge talent, he literally overflows with it. Something about his funny Austrian accent, his cave man looks have attracted audiences from all over the world; however his first forays into screen acting were pretty disastrous. He was told he was not up to scratch that his name was all wrong. Nonetheless he had his breakthrough with Conan the Barbarian in 1982, which was a huge box office hit. He eventually made the big time with his role in The Terminator and now has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

One can truly say Arnold has come a long way from that little Austrian village! In fact honors have literally rained down upon our hero and Arnie knows how to make good use of them. His Jupiter in Scorpio will have turned his gifts into money, a lot of money. A business sense a nose for a deal, a capacity to transform lead to gold all form part of Arnie’s character. His capacity for hard work is supersonic, but his Saturn in Leo would give him the ability to affect his environment with inbuilt foresight, and that stubborn belief that dreams can come true. His north node in Gemini has been a challenge. He has had to learn to communicate clearly, to express his dreams succinctly. But somehow, it is his awesome presence rather than his words that have hit the bull’s eye.

Not to say that he has never made mistakes, he was accused of sexual misconduct when he became the Governor of California. But still, there is something about the man that convinces, that makes us feel he is a good chap, a fighter who will prove that anyone, from anywhere can create miracles, if they have enough grit and determination. This year, Arnie will look on his life with great satisfaction. He will make tweaks here and there, as his prerogative will be peace of mind. In fact, he will use his awesome determination to build inner equanimity. Soon he will be sixty two, he deserves it; he is after all, somewhat of a modern day hero. God bless you Arnie!

To say Maggie Philbin, radio and TV presenter, is a nice person would be an understatement! She is also a well turned out Cancer, looking good in leather pants and chic suits alike. And just look at that big, generous smile. She has a natural warmth and empathic glow to her persona. A strong, earnest lass, with her sun sign is Cancer, she does not exactly have a closet penchant for adventure, but she will give something risky a go! Two of her claims to fame were riding a Top Fuel Dragster, and flying upside down in a Hawker Hunter on Tomorrow’s World. Her producer would have said “Go on Maggie, get in the Hawker Hunter!” and she would have been too darned curious to say no. A jolly Mercury in Cancer will always encourage her to take the proverbial “bull by the horns” and get on with it!  She has a quick mind, can assimilate ideas at the speed of sound. 

She will sit with you for hours debating Green issues, or the way the world is going, she loves to express her ideas at a rattling pace, may be because Mr. Mercury is one of her best astro pals. He inspires her, makes her quick on the uptake. Mr.M also insists in popping into her Venus, hence her love life will not be of the “bodice ripping” typology. She wants a guy who has a grip on the facts of life, someone who can put up a kitchen shelf and partake of a stream of fun repartee simultaneously. Yet there is some contradiction to her emotional world; Maggie’s sun sign can make deeper sentiments surprisingly difficult to deal with, she expects a lot from her partners and friends. She wants them to be full on genuine, and when they are not she feels crushed. Not everyone is as sincere as Maggie, yet she is far too independent and generous to resent the past; she had absolutely no qualms about appearing with her ex husband Keith Chegwin on Swap Shop for its 30^th anniversary shindig.  

She does love her mementos though; you know that coloured sand from the Isle of White, an old theatre ticket, her daughter’s first pink booties.  She is divorced from Keith, and her lovely daughter Rose is her “raison d’être”. With her sun blazing high in Cancer, Maggie is a fabulous mum. Okay she might snap at Rose suddenly, all moody Cancer style, but her Mars also in “homey” Cancer will make sure their environment is Feng Shui balanced and loving. Maggie knows “little things mean a lot”, and will take care of the details, i.e. where a vase is placed, exactly the right spot for a favourite picture, making sure she and her daughter sip coffee in a kitchen with sun streaming through its windows, etc. Now we will let you into a secret, the true reason for Maggie’s success is Jupiter in Leo: Like Julie Andrews she could burst into a song like “Climb Every Mountain”, at the drop of a hat. Maggie is a humanitarian. There will be many good works she will want to participate in; she is already a patron of the National Osteoporosis Society for one. You see that charismatic Jupiter shines all over her and those rays are warm and enlightening, making her popular and beloved.  She knows that life is a rich tapestry, and she will want to integrate as many experiences as possible into her time on this planet. She is not a shirker, nor is a “passer of the buck” she is a woman who stands tall, ready to take full on responsibility for her actions. The fact is she will always transform the bad to good, never afraid to dig deep until she has got over any challenge.   

She learnt many moons ago, that worrying never got her anywhere special. So will have stood up to a tendency to be self critical, always picking up a good idea, and following it through to pull herself back up from the dumps. Sometimes Saturn, her becausemic teacher, might have thrown her into a crisis such as a relationship break up, but she will have transformed the bad to good with her honest take. Being attached to her material possessions, she will have also found a good hole in the ground to bury her money, and will have made sure it is in a vault, or treasure chest to utilize on future rainy days. But relationships will be still be a little challenging, perhaps because she has morphed into such a free spirit over the years, and would find it hard to let go of any aspect of her independent lifestyle. Pluto will push her forwards in 2009. She will reach a wider audience. She will feel that this is the time to gather all her gifts together, and stand in the spotlight even more. We sense you are making the right decisions Maggie and we cannot wait to see more of your open hearted style on our small screens. We know you will achieve much more that you could ever imagine in this lifetime, and we wish you the best of luck.

This is a guy whose Mars in Capricorn will push him to success with method, hard work and total dedication. Good old Cappy will encourage him to be a dude on the move too, a new song perpetually on his lips, a show biz project on his mind. If you met him at a party he would be the one in the colourful ensemble, the bloke who earmarks you as his mate, and chats to you about his choice of décor and the wonderful people he knows, for Mr. Andre is an up front communicator, someone who tells it how it is, someone who is not that keen to keep his life mission under wraps. He wants to open up, to hone in on an issue, and focus full on. He did not find it difficult to focus on his beautiful wife, the glamour queen Katie Price, alias Jordan, who he met on “I’m a celebrity get me out of here!” He fell in love at first glance, she was his soul mate, his beauty in motion, she caught his heart and could intrigue him forever. They got married in 2005 and he became stepfather to her Harvey, and doting dad to their two kids Savva, and Princess Tiaamii.

His Mercury in Pisces will make him an empathic parental figure, aware of his children’s challenges and supporting them all the way. He will “sense” what is going on with them before they do. Additionally, that sun sign in sensitive Pisces coupled with a beautiful Venus in Aquarius makes sure he respects everyone’s needs, and mixes well with his friends and show biz colleagues also. Okay, he might want to jump up and down with a bout of high voltage angst when that song in his head does not translate on paper, but these moments pass as quickly as they come, because this guy wants to bring good into the world. He well remembers that time when he was picked out on an Australian Talent show in 1990, and how in 1992 his single “Gimme Little Sign” hit the charts. He has realised he is a gifted but also a lucky man for some time.  He also knew it was best to “strike while the iron was hot” unafraid to push to the front line, to risk an attitude, to stand out as a somewhat “avant garde” artist. He was in short unafraid to jump off the cliff, cos deep down he always knew he would fly!

Lady luck was on his side anyway, and he won thru sounding the right note, for example take his recent recording “A Whole New World “ from Walt Disney’s Aladdin, with Jordan singing back up. So what is Peter Andre’s soul mission, what did he come to here to learn? Well partly, to channel his sensitivity without giving in to self doubt. You see, with that north node in Capricorn he will be ultra sensitive to other people’s emotions, sometimes unable to define where he begins and they end, and it might occasionally throw him off course. He will learn that artistic sensitivity need not necessarily interfere with every day life, and he can remain grounded, and in a way “ordinary”, even though he has an inbuilt aversion to the “status quo”. He will always work very hard; he will always tune into his brilliant mind, and never cut corners to move on and up. The next couple of years will find him more immersed in new aspects of show biz, like management and production. His family life will be of great joy to him, and he will continue to fulfil himself at home, where he can be King to Jordan ’s Queen, no matter their ups and downs. This is a very creative dude, and we expect to be surprised by him. No matter the challenge he will meet it.

Stardom will come naturally as a result; in fact if Katie would only realise she need not be too concerned about attracting a mesmerized public, life might be more relaxing. But then, Katie adores a challenge, likes to have her say. Yet with loving Venus, also in Gemini, watch this girl transform into a kaleidoscope of breast jobs, new hairstyles, fun comments, outrageous dress styles, and changes of address. She moves so fast it is hard to keep up with her, in fact Katie has surprised herself ever since her friend advised her to submit photos to a modeling agency and she got a page three slot on the Sun Newspaper. Katie’s existence is a celebration, an excuse to be outrageous. And please don’t talk to her about the heavy-duty aspects of human destiny, she knows about suffering, and wants it to remain on the edge of her life as long as possible. Fun is her raison d’etre. But do not get us wrong she is certainly not superficial. Just because she likes to gossip with hubby Peter about show biz goings-on does not mean she can avoid that moon in Scorpio. It will make her realistic and frank; sometimes even offending people to make her case. But that Scorpio moon would protectively encircle her solid family life, you see, deep down Katie is an old fashioned type of gal, at least when it comes to those she cares about. In fact with Mr. Mercury in Taurus she will be realistic, and a good family organizer, i.e. see to it that the finances are in shape, and that “her own” can enjoy a high flying life style without going over the edge.

In short, she has her feet planted firmly on the ground, and is Peter Andre’s “power behind the throne!” Saturn in Leo has her above board, straight on, able to focus n her image and use it to further her life cause, she has become an important cog in that show biz wheel, and it keeps on turning!  Interestingly she needs to take her space, but also allow other people to advise and support her, in fact with that true node in Libra she might need to pull down her barricades as her fame boat floats even further upstream! “My Way”, could be her favorite song, but she also needs to include, “Their Way” on occasions, it will help even more notoriety and renown to manifest!  Okay we do not want to say this lady is bossy, we do not want to say this lady is fixated by her own myth, but we do want to say she needs to connect to that spiritual wisdom within her soul, to make sure that her emotional uncertainties are brought to the fore, and she understands the more complex areas of her inner life.

Certainly, 2009 show us she will continue to be a success, commuting from Los Angeles and traveling around the world to bring her dream, her perceptions of life even more into the public eye. Playing on the outrageous will continue to be her key to success, but let’s face it, this woman is consistently larger than life, and will respond as only Katie knows how, full on! We commend you Katie, and we will watch your future shenanigans with affection. What ever you do, you will grab our attention!

Her climb up the mountain to fame was not exactly steep, but certainly challenging at times. She studied at the famed Italia Conti Stage School, and first appeared in a cool drinks commercial at 12 years of age. She followed that on with bit parts, including a role in the popular television show The Bill. But she really hit the high note when she became the star attraction of East Enders for a mammoth run. She was a beloved favourite, that gal Tiffany. Who could overlook the open hearted bird that always got it wrong when it came to”lurve”? And who could ever overlook the plump and gorgeous sandwich lady delivering tea and cucumber sandwiches to Prime Minister Hugh Grant, in the hit film “Love Actually?”  Now I know you are wondering, what sun sign she could possibly be?

Well, “feet planted firmly on the ground Taurus” of course!  Martine is earthy and warm hearted with an intense Scorpio influence that could unleash feelings that break the sound barrier from time to time. In fact, Martine could throw a plate or two in the right direction, as she can get irate at obstacles in her path. We would not classify this as a tantrum, rather as a display of energy overload. Some might say that makes her more fun, and you could be right.  She never holds a grudge and the guys will be drawn to Martine like pins to a magnet.

Her Venus in Taurus makes her “physical”, certainly no “touchy feely” type, just plain sensual.  She might have been hurt by love, and could be prickly, especially when she first knows you. She will test a person out, and needs to build up trust before she will give her heart. She can be drawn to the rather “devil may care” handsome types, and will fall hook line and sinker if they are charming too. She has that sensual vibe, coupled with delightful curves, dark eyes and the type of glossy hair us gals dream of.

The truth is she will not miss out on love as a result, and she will also never be short of a suitor!  She adores fun, and “party time” is “Martine time”. Jupiter in Taurus will make her a sleek dresser with a love of colour, fabrics and interior décor. Her home will be as stylish as her look.  But with that Mercury in Gemini she could get highly strung, even depressed when she finds she does not have the energy to do all she wants to. She had rather a challenging time working in the West End revival of My Fair Lady, and had to drop out due to ill health. But the short time she was on stage won her the Lawrence Olivier Theatre Award for her performance. This girl is gifted. Most of Martine’s relationships are about telling it how it is. She thrives on communication.

The sharp and witty side of Mr Mercury in Gemini will make her a “quick silver” messenger, who will deliver a punch line with great panache.  Her quote “I’ve spent the last four days snogging Hugh and he is a really good kisser” when she commented on the rigors of shooting Love Actually had many people giggling in the aisles. Look at her forehead, round and broad, so be aware there is not  one narrow minded thought in her head, she is ready for new ideas on a global level, yet when it comes to her talents, or life styles, she will listen to you talk about changes, but might take a while to get moving on them.

She is no stick in the mud, our Martine, but she can lose her way during those “Gemini mind game” moments, even though she will always work through the negatives, and make sure she wins over her doubts.  With Venus on her side Martine will be younger looking than usual this year.  She will also utilise that magical, “can do” vibe to her advantage, and this will stand her in good stead probably well into next year too. Her love life will work out with those romantic stars winking at her, so she needs to be prepared for some emotional shifting over 18 months or so.
 
Career opportunities will come up for Martine, and we should see her star in a new film, or release a hit single. She is such a fun and delightful girl; we will continue to be her fans for many years to come.  Let’s cheer her on, as luck is on her side for sure!

She is a master at making a role work, so you inevitably raise your hat to her meticulousness. Her roles these days tend to be of Maverick older woman, who do things “Their Way”, very much like her popular M in the James Bond film series.  Yet that Venus in Sagittarius asks Judi Dench to be a laugh a minute. She tells a joke with such a straight face you will be unable to stop yourself from falling off your chair, overcome by mirth She will also delight on playing pranks on co-stars, some of them side splittingly hilarious, if taken with a sporty attitude..  Her life style suits her, all that travelling around, meeting people.  Friends will pop up everywhere, the corner deli, her local newsagent, Hollywood, Bollywood, Windsor Castle, at the supermarket.

She is no snob, people adore her, and want to giggle with her as a result.  Judi would be interested in spiritual matters; they hold a fascination for her with Jupiter in Scorpio, which would explain her Quaker faith. Other worldly matters lift her morale. She needs to understand how this old universe works.  Her marriage to actor Michael Williams was a significant almost spiritual bond too, her phrase “we were just happy being in the same room together” a sign of that soul love they shared.  But Michael was a depressive at times, their union begun due to a personal tragedy in Judi’s life. He was once heard saying “for Judi it is bloody Christmas every day!” But they loved each other, and he would send her a bunch of red roses every week for thirty years. The phrase “opposites attract” comes to mind here.

Interestingly, her Saturn in Aquarius has made sure she takes a broad minded approach to the concept of eternal life. Remaining unattached to the opinions of sceptics, she is more prone to synthesizing the possibility of never-ending spiritual existence in her own way, with care to content and detail.  Nothing shoddy for our Judi. It all has to have a certain symbolic resonance. But the secret to Dame Judi Dench’s astounding skills could be Uranus in Aries. This would make her channel her characters from Universal Mind; have intuitive “connections” to them within, sense their asking her to give them a chance at expressing themselves with the detail only she is capable of.  She is a master craftswoman. Able to touch hearts with the strength of her astounding performances.
 
In 2009 Judi will need to make a choice between two options, burn the midnight oil or get her health in shape. Perhaps take a well earned rest and recuperation rather than continue with all that hard graft could be considered. She could hold back all that energy, she might consider cutting back on her acting assignments, but it will be hard for her.   Be assured, she will re-emerge, as remarkable as ever, and remain one of the greatest British actors of the 20th century.

With both Mercury and Venus in sweet Pisces she will get to know her lover’s soul in depth, understanding if they don’t feel too well, bringing them a cup of their favorite herbal tea on a silver platter.  She will merge with her loved ones preoccupations too, identifying with their hopes and dreams, siding with them at every turn. Her two daughters are her best friends; may be because she has always been so frank with them.  Her controversial relationship with Christine Marinoni disappointed the guys though, more than a few were hoping they would bump into her on a shopping spree “a la” Sex in the City. Sorry lads, this lady is fully ensconced in a significant relationship with a beautiful woman. She said, “In terms of sexual orientation I don’t feel I’ve really changed.   I’ve been with men all my life and I’ve never fallen in love with a woman, but when I did it didn’t seem strange.  I’m just a woman in love with another woman!”
  
Cynthia is dedicated to candor at every turn!  But it is Mars in Aries that will keep our Cynthia climbing up the mountain path. She wants to look down from the peak at her accomplishments, and see the truth of who she really is! She will not quit, no matter how far she has to reach.  Currently Cynthia is going through a pleasant emotional phase, there is peace and tranquility on her domestic scene, and she is enjoying life with daughters and partner.   She will want to tune into her more creative abilities by painting, or playing an instrument, expressing that Piscean sensitivity so prevalent within her.

She will be happy with her career, receiving even more recognition for her talents; her press office could create some interesting publicity campaigns that hit the bull’s eye over the next couple of years.  She will surely continue to be Ms Popularity, perhaps because deep down we all recognize what a nice person she is, no matter her role, that inner integrity sort of shines through and we remain devoted to her because of it.  She is a talent, and her devotion to her craft and audience, makes her the top of our list of people to meet up a mountain top!  Keep going Cynthia; we are watching your every move.

The full moon on the 1st April 1961 will have been a time when the moon’s energy was strong and full of magical power. This is when an unlikely Star in the making, Susan Boyle was born.

Throughout her life Susan will have had to deal with the push-pull affect of this powerful aspect. Her conscious (the Aries Sun) seeming at war with her subconscious (her Libran Moon). Her assertive, fire Aries side at odds with her desire for companionship and love. A struggle that can take years of maturity to overcome.

Venus is retrograde in Aries in Susan’s chart, square Saturn and trine Uranus. Susan will express herself with charm and enthusiasm. Despite never having been kissed, she can be flirtatious, fun-loving and exudes warmth and exuberance.

Venus is not only retrograde in Susan’s chart but it also makes tense links with both Jupiter and Saturn. This points to a spell of hardship in her life and a difficult childhood.

When Susan was young she was ruthlessly mocked by other kids because being starved of oxygen at birth left her with learning difficulties. She admits that “words often hurt more than cuts and bruises and the scars are still there.” Her parents didn’t want her to have boyfriends, denying an outlet for all the love, warmth, sensitivity and fiery passion revealed by her Aries Sun, Venus in Aries and Mars in Cancer.

Her torment led to her seeking comfort in singing, a talent she discovered when she was five. Mercury in Pisces not only shows a creative, imaginative and poetic mind but a divine singing voice and an innate leaning toward music, the theatre and visual arts.

Susan plucked up the courage to enter Britain’s Got Talent after her mother’s death. She wanted to make her mother proud and felt the only way to do that was to take the risk and enter the show. It was a gamble that has paid off, with her tear-jerking rendition of I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables.

Venus links with Uranus in Susan’s chart, suggesting a singing talent that is distinctly her own and a life destined to move from familiar paths when at last Susan starts to follow her destiny.

Full moons mark the close of a chapter, usually within four or five days of their occurrence.

April 2009, when the moon is once again full in Libra and when Venus is retrograde in Aries and Jupiter in Aquarius, all reflecting those same planets in Susan’s birth chart, an episode in her life has reached an end and Susan Boyle the star is born.

Courage and initiative aren’t all that’s needed to get things done this week; Venus close to Mars in Pisces highlights the value of compassion and sensitivity in all our dealings. This is also a perfect week to reflect on how we all make best use our time in readiness for the new openings these two planets will bring when they move into Aries.

  Venus in Aries will bring the likelihood of new friendships or romantic encounters. In contrast Mars adds a competitive more urgent element into our dealings and a tendency for some to be careless and impulsive.

  Mercury links with Jupiter and Uranus this week; communications will be exaggerated with people twisting facts and embellishing the truth. News reports are likely to involve Church leaders, writers, educationalists and teachers.  The new moon is in the fixed sign Taurus on the 25^th supporting anything requiring raw creative talent and practical efforts made to increase finances.

To see a “dark” lady talk “Californian Beach Babe” was absolutely hilarious.O n the way up the ladder Cassandra also posed nude for a few men’s magazines, being such an all American beauty and all. In fact a total contrast to her sub persona, Elvira Mistress of the dark, Cassandra is as blonde as Elvira is brunette, as peaches and cream, as Elvira is white skinned, and Gothic. It has to be said, Cassandra’s “Elvira Mistress of the dark” literally cascades on to shows in a figure hugging black gown, her cleavage plummeting to her navel, her black hair back combed into a six inch bee hive! Her glib asides and off beat comments were all the rage on popular late night shows, when she would preen in front of Jay Leno, David Letterman or some other such host, spouting so called “dark” absurdities. Petersen once said of her sub personality “I figured out that Elvira is me when I was a teenager. She’s a spastic girl I just say what I feel and people seem to enjoy it”. She is indeed magic, with all that self mockery, and off hand delivery. 

Interestingly her Moon in Aries will always keep her on top of her art. She is deeply curious about the human psyche; intense in her exploration of it, paying attention to detail is fundamental when it comes to her performance also. She will always be ready to experiment with something, the more outrageous the better, the more challenging the more fun. Elvira’s persona is an exact and precise interpretation. Cassandra would have studied the phantomatic inner world of her Mistress of the Dark down to the finest details, so that the persona came over as 100 percent credible and 100 percent hilarious. Mr. Mercury also in Virgo wants her spot on with that creative flair of hers, it is so fundamental to the success of her act, to shine Cassandra has placed her off beat take on reality well before her love life, with Venus in Virgo she would be rather inclined to put long term relationships on the back burner, she needs to feel free and in command of her own destiny, and when love comes her way she is inclined to analyse it to dust before she takes the plunge. She is a free spirit and has such a strong personality it would be really difficult to mix and merge with her, as she would always want to do it “her way”. This is due to her determined Mars in Leo, and a rather stroppy attitude to obstacles blocking her way.

She is a lady who sure knows the score, as again Mr. Mars in Leo would be generous and gift her with the energy, the charisma and the determination to bring her dream into reality. Her “Elvira Cult” has been transformed into Halloween costumes, comics, toys, perfumes, dolls, quite an industry. In fact a film based on her persona, called Elvira, Mistress of the Dark was released to the delight of her fans! But the cream on this lady’s cake is her Jupiter in Aries; it will have given her the energy to really go for it, and touch the stars, to cut through to the chase, above and beyond her own misgivings or anyone else’s and just keep going, until she gets to the very top of the mountain. Of course we would not go so far as to call her a “myth in her own time” but certainly “fun in her own time”. As far as this year is concerned, there is not much change to all the unexpected events that continue to crop up around her. More talk shows, more meetings, more crazy times and maybe some activities involved with her beloved artistic ventures, or musical exploits.

As beautiful as she is we do not see a companion coming into her life soon, maybe because she is okay just as she is. Certainly she is a one off creation, Cassandra or Elvira; it cannot be denied she is an entertaining dame, and let it be said a great buddy to her mates, especially when she quits telling them what to do! A great gal in other words, “Dark” or “Light”, she fascinates us, and we will continue to keep abreast of her shenanigans, whatever and wherever they may be! 

Samantha Fox once said “God gave me my body. I know it has made many people happy. There is no conflict there. I don’t and have never promoted pornography. I’m not a born-again Christian because I have always been one. I am doing what God wants me to do. My prayer each night is: “Let me go my way and make people happy. Let me do the right thing.” In fact Samantha, that bright and scintillating lady with the impish grin, that East End golden girl who has us so enthralled, has more than done the right thing, even though her life has been peppered with challenges and some emotional pain. She would just have to be an Aries, you know go getting, charismatic, with that never say die attitude so prevalent in the East End where she grew up. Her planetary placements show a harmonious sun moon combination which would mean the charm would come in bucket loads, and coupled with an unusual equanimity she is a rare pearl within the show biz fraternity.  

It would not have always been easy for her to handle success, but she has a rather Scarlet O’Hara quality to her, so “Tomorrow would always be another day!”  Her late mum and dad were market traders perhaps that was why Sam was awestruck by show biz from such an early age, the glamour of it lifted her up and away from the school of hard knocks. She most probably dreamt of the silver screen, and saw herself up there with the stars. Mercury in Pisces would make her prone to dream! But nobody, not even Sam, could have imagined she would grow up into such a stunner and draw all that rapt attention. In early 1983, mum took a couple of piccies of her lovely daughter and submitted them to the Sunday People who were running an amateur modelling competition. And that was how Samantha Fox became a legend in her own time and one of the most mythical Page Three Girls in the western world. Of course, she had some challenges to contend with on her way up the stairway to success. One was her dad who embezzled her. She accessed her Mars in Aries to sue him and when he died in 2000, she had not seen him for years.

Mr. Mars looks after Sam’s interests, makes her stand up for her rights, and allows her to hold her own in a crisis no matter what!  That aspect helped her in her career singing career, she always loved music, and fought hard to express herself. She created three albums and her hit single “Touch Me I Want Your Body!” was recorded she was only 19 years old. She has toured Bosnia , Russia and the Ukraine and has had eight top forty hits. When it comes to love Sam would be complex, her Venus in Pisces gifts her with a heart breaking sensitivity. She might want to save those she loves, from themselves. For some time she had a relationship with a con man named Peter Foster, and together they adopted Simon a young Australian boy who accidentally drunk some alcohol and became comatosed. Samantha was absolutely devastated. Perhaps due to this incident the Faith really took hold of her, becoming the central focus of her life.

Her Aquarian moon strikes a rebellious note throughout her life. You see, Sam is an individualist, a humanitarian, certainly not a stuffed shirt; strict social mores get on her nerves, as does the status quo This placement would have made it impossible for her to remain silent about her deep love for Myra Stratton, her manager. “But I can’t keep saying ‘Maybe” or denying it. It is time to let people know where my heart is. People keep trying to say I’m a lesbian. I don’t know if I am. All I know is that I’m in love with Myra, and want to spend the rest of my life with her!” But it is Venus in Pisces that ultimately gifts her with her angelic qualities, making her so kind, so loving, so romantic so able to pick up another’s feelings and read them without anyone saying a word. The Pisces element would help her access the divine, the infinite, her faith in humanity and her love of God. She yearns for depths of emotion, an intensity she cannot access within main stream relationships.

When she connects to “All that Is” Sam is finally her own person, a true mystic, with closet prophetic tendencies. Take away the glitter, and you have a beautiful soul, who is intent on fulfilling her life purpose. And that is why we see Sam moving on and up over the coming years.  She will use her knowledge of life, and higher thinking to latch on to new ways of expressing her creative talents. Something revolutionary is going to happen to her and a result will be an enlightened pathway ahead. Her true node in Taurus will encourage her to seek the truth within her soul, always, and this is the crux of Samantha Fox, her spirit is the core of her. She has lived her life, her beauty and her gifts to the hilt. But as she moves into her later years, she will find she can apply the same intensity of purpose to her spiritual life, and her deep love for the human race. She will shift the attention towards helping others and succeed in this endeavour, perhaps due to her magical capacity to communicate.  She is an awesome chick, Sam, we love ya!

Forgive us for saying that Aries Sun Sign Sarah Jessica Parker is a bit of an enigma, a bit of a perfectionist and soft spoken rebel, the kind of girl with her finger in every pie, yet with a tendency to criticise herself and others notwithstanding her talent, and good heart. She is indeed a stickler, an extremely ambitious member of the Aries fraternity, her hard headedness borderline obsessive, her need to reach the top of her profession compulsive. In fact her friends and family are not in the last surprised she managed to strut her stuff to perfection in Sex and City and win four Golden Globe, two Emmys and more, for her performance as Carrie Bradshaw. She had worked hard from when she was a kid; her dedication to show biz was uncompromising. Sarah initiated her existence on planet earth as the beloved daughter of a nursery school teacher and a journalist, her parents divorced when Sarah Jessica was a kiddo, and she grew up in a very extended family; i.e. a brood of brothers and sisters some inherited from her stepfather, and some from her mum’s new marriage.

We envision little Jessica fighting for attention amidst the fray. We see her dressing up in her mum’s high heeled shoes, or pirouetting around the sitting room in her ballerina dress, the perfect fairy princess. It would have been logical for her to attend the School for Creative and Performing Arts, and follow up with a stint at the School of American Ballet. Mars in Virgo would have had her working at the bar far longer than the other girls, burning the midnight oil to practice her pirouettes. In the early eighties she got a breakthrough playing a mixed up teen in the sitcom Square Pegs, her performance was well received. Yet it was not enough to hit the big time, so she still soldiered on, her dreams seemingly beyond reach. Yet an encouraging moon in Capricorn encouraged her to utilise those ample reserves of energy and fight for her dreams. She soon found herself caste in four films, including one with Helen Hunt, called “Girls Just Want to have Fun!” But it was her role as Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City that really projected Sarah Jessica into the big time, notwithstanding the show’s sometimes dubious language, and rather controversial episodes.

Most women on planet earth identified with the four desperate New Yorkers seeking true love and yes, eventually finding it. In fact, Sarah Jessica’s depiction of Carrie bore some resemblance to her own sensitivity, insight, inner loneliness and distinct fashion flair. A rather cheeky Mercury in Pisces gifted Jessica with her heroine’s droll perception of life, so crucial to the character of Carrie Bradshaw. By the way, even Sarah can talk philosophy at the cheese counter, slurp over cups of coffee in paroxysms of giggles, or just get excessively inspired by a pair of Jimmy Choo shoes. Friendly Mercury is always her best friend; after all he has gifted her with that communicative dress sense, that sassy impertinence, that mischievous demeanor! As far as romance is concerned, well she is a Venus in Pisces, therefore a super romantic, i.e. Cathy to Heathcliffe, Juliet to Romeo. She had a big thing going with Robert Downey Jr. and she supported him through his drug problem, Venus in Pisces always encouraging her to understand his pain.  

She once said “I believed I was the person holding him together” but eventually that relationship crashed, and she married Matthew Broderick, her true and destined soul mate. She and Matthew have a son, and all three of them are left handed!  So, when it comes to friends and family Sarah is the sweetest and most gentle person, always ready to support and love her nearest and dearest with every bone in her body. In fact, when it comes to her personal life she is adept at censoring the more hard bitten aspects of her show biz persona. She would fight to her last breath to protect her family, and is an adoring wife to Matthew.  But it is her north node in Gemini that will her guide this doll forwards on a planetary mission. It will encourage her to really get to know others through communication, compassion and understanding. You see, all Sarah Jessica Parker needs to do is to push herself a little less. After all, she possesses a magic key to a special door; it opens to evolved understanding, and a capacity to express the human condition through her matchless artistic flair.   

At the moment Jessica might feel her career is stuck in a rut and she wants to expand, the second half of 2009 shows she will start looking at her craft from a different angle, perhaps becoming involved in film production or a new television series. In any event, an opportunity will come her way, and she will pick up on it! And by the way, if you are free for a shopping expedition honey, can we come?  We would just love to laugh and joke with you in the coffee house, chatting about how hard it is to be a woman in this mad, bad world! God bless you Ms Parker, you are our true showbiz soul mate and entertaining friend! We cannot wait to see your next trick!

When Barack Obama walks into any room its occupants will sit up straight, adjust their ties, smooth down their lapels, and sigh with relief, because this is not only a man who talks business,  he is the first Black American President to sit in the Whitehouse. Yes, this awesome gentleman is far more than a myth in his own time; he is a standard bearer for change, carrying the legacy of “I had a dream” Martin Luther King, to the top of the proverbial mountain. His qualifications are stellar. He is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School. He worked as a community organiser in the city of Chicago, and a civil rights attorney in that same city. He did three terms in the Illinois Senate and ran for the United States Senate in 2004 being elected in November of that same year and running for presidency against Hilary Clinton. His Mars in Virgo would have gifted him with an almost inhuman capacity to reach for the highest goal, his eye consistently on the big picture. Something deep within his psyche pushes him on; perhaps his need to help humanity, to give of himself is always in the forefront of his mind. 

He was a community organiser in Chicago before earning his law degree, and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School. But above all, his presentation and persona were consistently charismatic, and he has now become an historic leader during one of the most transformational eras this planet has ever seen. Few of us will forget his victory over the Republican candidate John McCain, and the night he stood in front of the jubilant citizens of Chicago to tell them that “Change” had come to America. There was something magical in the air that night.  Obama’s grandmother, Madelyn Dunham^, had died on November 2, 2008 just days before his election as the President of the United States, and that news had caused great grief to him. Yet, as he stood in front of the people of Chicago that night, Destiny had touched his life forever. Indeed, there was something so inspirational about his persona, his speech, and the occasion, that street celebrations “happened” from Brighton to Botswana; we were all aware the world was about to shift to a new level. Barack Obama was born on the 4^th of August 1961 in Honolulu Hawaii.  

A Leo child of mixed race parentage, few would have realised he would become the magnanimous leader of the most powerful country in the world. Yet throughout his life he has retained the better qualities of the Leo sun sign, the open hearted attitudes, the inspirational perceptions and the generous demeanor. As an adult he stands erect, his strength honed in, his Taurus moon obstinacy encouraging him to push until he reaches all his goals, gifting him with inborn emotional strength and resiliance, plus a capacity to make the right decisions. Mercury in Leo would have kept him upbeat and positive when confronted with challenges. He would never have looked to others to fight his battles for him. In fact, as a kid, he would have kept a well stocked piggy bank and a strong sense of the harsher realities of life. Obama had an unusual upbringmg. He said “That my father looked nothing like the people around me and that he was black as pitch, my mother white as milk barely registered in my mind.” And “I’ve got relatives who look like Bernie Mac and I’ve got relatives who look like Margaret Thatcher” His mother was Stanley Ann Dunham, her origins not only American-Kansas, but English. His father Barack Obama, Sr. was a Leo, from Nyanza Province, Kenya. His parents met in a Russian language class at the University of Hawaii and tied the knot in 1961; Barack was born later that same year. It would be a challenge for any mixed raced child to integrate, and the situation was no different for Obama,  but he was lucky, as he said, “The opportunity that Hawaii offered to experience a variety of cultures in a climate of mutual respect became an integral part of my world view and a basis for the values that I hold most dear”.

Like most college kids Obama experimented with drugs, but he judges himself harshly for this, all the same, positive lessons were learnt, and resulted in his humane perception of the challenges youth faces today. In June 1989, Obama met his soul mate Michelle Robinson at a Chicago law firm. His attraction was immediate, she was organised, well turned out, obviously a woman who dotted her I’s and dotted her T’s, and Obama’s Mars in Virgo likes things to be lined up perfectly. She turned him down when he asked her out on the first date. But she noted  there was something about the man, his fervent ideas, his obvious decency, his inspirational perceptions, not only was she fascinated but she soon fell deeply in love. They married in October 1992, and their first daughter Malian Ann was born in 1998, and little Natasha later in 2001. With that Venus in Cancer Obama would be a sensitive husband and doting father.  He needs a hard headed woman to be the power behind his throne, and Michelle is all of that and more. In any event domestic stability is his inspiration, and Venus in Cancer would gift him with the loving strength of a united family to light his way.

Michelle and Obama respect each other, and notice the little things that mean a lot. In fact, Michelle not only supports, but has become part of Obama’s vision. She might not be aware his Jupiter is in Aquarius and that it will make him one of the most inspiring leaders many generations have seen, but she senses it. In fact that bountiful planet will encourage him to stretch across barricades with motivational oratory, sustaining humanity’s higher purpose and encouraging those who have lost hope, even in their dreams. Obama’s mother died of ovarian cancer, and could not be there to see her son touch the stars. She taught him compassion when she died without the money to pay for health care. Perhaps it was then Obama decided to do everything he could to help the disadvantaged. From a spiritual perspective, his Sun Sign is guiding him to fulfill his mission on planet earth. This means great personal sacrifice; he cannot but listen to his calling though. Throughout 2009 we will see him opening out channels of communication with international leaders. His intention is to find ways of guiding this planet into a new era. Whether he fails or succeeds will depend not only on him, but the citizens of the world. If we agree to his “Yes We Can!” we will, indeed, and discover a new and better way of living our lives in the process!

Once upon a time that charming Aquarian babe, Holly Marie Willoughby became famous. That was after she was born in Brighton and raised by a down to earth double glazing manager dad, and air hostess, mum. Mum and Dad wanted the very best for their girl, and surprise surprise, it all ended “happily ever after” because their babe won a BAFTA for her positive contribution to children’s TV. She also had the luck to be born with Mr. Mercury in Pisces, so she would have had that cute way about her from the very moment she came into the world, and it stayed cute unless she had a tantrum, and got frustrated when mum and dad did not understand her. Anyway, Mr. Mercury would have made her dreams of being a super star come true. The fact that she managed to hit the jackpot did not surprise her adoring family, after all they had watched her grow in confidence, and rise to fame at breakneck speed. Almost before her public could focus on their TV screens, wham, she was a celebrity! Could a fairy godmother have guided Holly “to being in the right place at the right time?” Or was it down to sheer talent. In other words, what makes this girl so endearing to the public other than her devastating looks? At this stage one might need to summarise.  

For one, she works and plays hard, always good for success. Two, she did model ladies underwear way back when, and also took a shower in a kiosk in Trafalgar Square to encourage the great British public not to waste water. Very, very Aquarian!  Her first lucky break was landing a part in a show featuring S club but she really hit the jackpot when she co hosted “Dancing on Ice” with Paul Schofield helping to attract over 8 million viewers. You see she has a fascinating Venus in Aquarius; it makes her princess-like, and attracts her audience. I mean with that cute smiley face and glowing skin she is just such a galvaniser! The kind of girl who makes a guy turn weak at the knees. Sorry lads she is already taken, she married Dan Baldwin a producer of Ministry of Mayhem, at the young age of 23. Her Venus in Aquarius would have swept Dan off his feet. He would have been amazed by the way she stared into the distance all of a sudden. She was just taking one of her detached breaks, alla Venus in Aquarius. But the fact is she would never allow herself to be swept away by her success story.

She remains resiliently down to earth, even though Mars in Pisces would make her prone to dream. Yet she is always determined to make what she dreams happen and that well placed Jupiter in Libra will help her to, ensuring her life is fair. She likes things upfront, people being straight with her and Mr. Jupiter will encourage her to pick the right company, people who believe in her, just like mum and dad always did. Currently, she is co presenting “Holly & Fearne Go Dating, with Fearne Cotton”, attempting to find dates for single people in the UK, her fun style fascinating her public as always but the true secret to her success, that factor that is so hard to pin down is her north node in Leo. It will make her a fun personality, so full of joy and laughter, a really good sport, a front line participator who endears the kids to her children’s shows. Her adult public appreciate her charming ways too, even when she caused that “fuss” when her dress slipped slightly, exposing a breast while she was hosting a robust game on the Ministry of Mayhem kid’s show. But the fact is our Holly did not let it affect her.

She likes to joke about her mistakes, she also likes her food, likes a drink too and to live to the hilt. She hates to be alone. Being surrounded by friends and loved ones is one of her raison d’êtres. She once said “My plan is to have children and turn my back on work completely. When I start having babies, I`ll have as many as I can” in fact surrounded by laughing offspring would be Holly’s ideal!  She need not worry, that starry Uranus influence will always surprise her and bring sudden and “destined”, events into her life. There is a sense she will develop a natural interest in spirituality as her existence unfolds. So what does it matter if she has doubts about herself some times? Her buzz remains dynamic, and will lift her up a notch when she feels down. The good news for Holly is that during 2009 a wish could come true. Something she has always wanted to happen, so that lucky star will still be shinning over her still, helping to fill our lives with joy. Go for it Holly!

“I may not have the stereotypical head for business, but I have feet that were made for heels,” Cancerian Tamara Mellon once commented. Even though this lady is so concerned with feet, she needs her business head screwed on straight to be the President of the Jimmy Choo Shoe Empire. She is the founder of world renowned cultish footwear worn so frequently in “Sex and the City!”, you know, the super high heels, the sexy designs that make any celebrity worth their salt, and that includes Elton John, shop as if they can shop no more! Blame it on her Mars in Libra, who gifted Tamara with a style that has us falling in love with those 21st century winklepickers! And make no mistake she has more than enough chutzpah to expand on that ingenious talent! But may we suggest all this resourcefulness might have something to do with an intriguing mix match of Sun Sign in Cancer and parental genes? She adores her ex Chanel model mum for better or worse, most Cancers love their mamas, but add on a sensitive Mr. Mercury in Cancer and this lady will have gently assimilated her mater’s fashion flair, and her  entrepreneur dad’s eye for business.

Tamara went to the best schools and finished her education in Switzerland. So being naturally chic, classy and international would not have been difficult for our heroine. She was somewhat “divine” from an early age. But it was her inborn eye for talent that spotted the bespoke shoe craftsman, Jimmy Choo in the East End of London. Both of them never looked back! Currently their ready to wear Shoe Company is valued at $101 million and stretches from London to Beverley Hills, from New York to Hong Kong with phenomenal success. Exquisite footwear has always been a woman’s panacea to the woes of existence, but the superb craftsmanship of Jimmy Choo more than delights stars such as Demi Moore and, Beyonce Knowles. In fact, “Jimmy Choo” has morphed into a fashion mantra guaranteed to get the celebs reaching for her pocket books! Their distribution to the general public is high class Kensington, their wear and tear, the red carpets of numerous Award Ceremonies such as the Oscars and Golden Globes. I mean, how can a star look a million dollars in that Versace gown, without the right shoes?!!  But Tamara is not only an exquisite lady with cartloads of charm; she is also a loving woman with her own share of emotional challenges.

She recently broke up with Christian Slater with whom she was very close for some time and is divorced from the banking heir Matthew Mellon, with whom she has a beloved daughter; Believe it or not, Mr. Mellon hired a Private Eye to trail her when they were going through their divorce in 2005! An extravagant Venus in Leo will gift Tamara with such a warm and loving heart she will be virtually irresistible. She just loves to be in the company of a man she adores, and of course who adores her, and shows her this with extravagant gestures - very Leo in Venus. She wants to show him off too, make him feel all her warm and fiery devotion. It is keeping the passion going that is difficult for Tamara. Both business and maternal commitments will take her away from partners for long periods of time. Mr. Jupiter in Leo, as positive as he is, can deviate the course of true love. The planet of luck and plentitude will want her to expand her vision, reach out for even more success, and sit in the hot seat with ruthless determination.  

Tamara is impressive, her business sense grand, her capacity to throw the average moccasin, lace up, stiletto and ballerina out the window, innovative. But Mr. Jupiter will create conflict, especially since her north node in Taurus will want her to be intimate and close to those she loves, in other words to build up a strong and resilient family life and spend alot of time cooking apple tart and being a mum. We sense she is going through a time of emotional awareness, defining herself more deeply as a woman, realising if she really yearns for love, she might have to take less of a presidential stance. The fact is Tamara has a special mission, we say it is to glimmer; she might say it is to keep her life original.  

She cannot help being a free spirit, she cannot help wanting to live high in the hog, all those qualities are written deep within her DNA, so she might as well enjoy her success, and  this year she will. We sense that she and Christian Slater will continue to see each other, notwithstanding the present break up. That somehow she will be able to balance her love life with her career, striking a happier medium. That she will learn that it is not so bad to put her career first, after all she is such a renaissance woman how can she do otherwise. This year and next the blessings should continue to pour in, so Tamara, sit back and enjoy your life; it is not only imaginative but brilliant!  Now, forgive me, but must pop down to Knightsbridge and buy me a pair of JC shoes. Tra la!

Okay, let’s play a celebrity game! Who said, one “If you haven’t got it fake it……!”  two “I want a big house, with a moat and dragons, and a fort to keep people out?” and three “I dress sexily but not in an obvious way, in a virginal way!” Yes, congratulations, ten out of ten, our celebrity is that great Dame of British Show biz, Victoria Beckham. Whether you like her fashion style is not the point. When we look at this lady’s astro heavens, she is one fully rounded, fascinating chick. In fact strangely, her looks deviate from her inner strength and originality. Why do we say this? Mainly because her Aries sun sign liaises with the soft light of a beneficial moon. In fact, that moon has slowly morphed Victoria into a wise humanitarian with a closet mystical bent, always ready to listen to new philosophies and perceptions. This is why she is so prone to experiment with avant garde fashion!  She is by no means a voguish airhead; she is a down to earth, astute being, with an extreme sense of humor, and a capacity to dismiss life’s challenges with a mere wave of a graceful hand. She also has Mr. Mars in heady Gemini, so she is fully capable of holding her own with her agent, her fan club, her enemies and her business associates.   

Some people have wondered about her nickname “Posh” since as far as we know she has no relationship to the Queen. It was during her meteoric ascension to worldwide renown as a Spice Girl that the nickname stuck, apparently pulled out of the sky by a British pop magazine, but we sense those who used it were aware Victoria had a rather unusual perception of existence, like when she was a little girl and begged dad not to deliver her to school in his Rolls Royce! As a child she was from the Planet Venus, a one off, an outsider who other kids would pick on. They realised she was another “pasta”, and soon she would realise it herself. Since she left the Spice Girls, she has sometimes hit the big time with her songstress talents,  her single “Out of Your Mind” was number two in the top ten, but nowadays she has become more of a “modish mystic”, her unique fashion nose helping her design a line of jeans, sunglasses and perfumes. In fact she is obsessed with sunglasses, and has her own vintage collection. We are not surprised; hiding behind them when faced with over-excited fans, journalists and photographers, etc. is her way of distancing herself.

Of course she is more than grateful for her popularity; in fact she has now cultivated a grounded method of dealing with the excesses of celebrity-hood. Mercury in Aries makes her nobody’s fool; do not try to pull a fast one on Victoria! She wants you to be straight, on edge when it comes to business, intense and inspiring as a friend. Her own ideas jump hither thither like a grass hoppers and she will want to share them with you. As far as lurve is concerned we all know that Victoria adores her David. Venus in Pisces means that she is an incurable romantic and believes in Twin Flames and Soul Mates. She and David fell in love in 1997 at a football meeting. She reportedly said to her friends “I didn’t really know who he was, as I was never into football!” But the attraction was swift and awesome. Nicknamed “Posh and Becks” by the press they got married in an Irish castle. Victoria now has three children, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz, with Elton John and David Furnish as the godfathers, and Elizabeth Hurley as the Godmother. But let us return to Venus in Pisces, since it is such an important aspect of Victoria’s “way of being”. 

Victoria has a big heart, and a capacity to love unconditionally. Surprising she is not just the fashionable broad we all know and love. Behind closed doors she is a warm, giving woman, with such a close proximity to her husband and children, she sometimes forgets where she ends and they begin. When David reportedly had a brief affair with his personal assistant, she said “”I think we are a very weak, anorexic family. We hate food but we love each other to pieces and I think as long as we don’t eat each other then we’re fine, yeah?” But that phrase was a cover up for her true feelings, which was nobody would ever take her Twin Soul away from her, ever!  But get one thing about Victoria, with her Jupiter in Pisces she is an old soul, someone who has come to earth with a mission. Strip away the show biz mask, and discover a bright light shinning behind it. She is not in the least bit conceited about all her success, but she loves to play the game of “chic broad about town”. However, we insist, deep down, Victoria is an intuitive healer, and might just have to come out of her closet and admit it! A magical individual who can both stimulate and antagonise an adoring public.

We would not be surprised if she did much good for others, a good that she would prefer to keep under wraps. Over the next couple of years she will review her lifestyle in all its aspects. She will cut back on work, and examine her health, perhaps make a few tweaks to her training and diet programme here and there. Her North Node in Sagittarius will teach her not to scatter her energies, but to hone in to new objectives. Her mystic side will come to the fore over the next years, and she will start participating in a series of controversial projects, that both inspire and entertain. We can only expect to be surprised by the one off, adorable Victoria Beckham!

David Beckham is an earth bound being. Maybe because he is a Taurus. In fact, he is in his element with both feet planted firmly on the football pitch, preferably kicking a ball around. In fact, he wanted to kick a ball around from a very early age. Probably when he first popped into the world at Whipps Cross University Hospital in Leytonstone. We are convinced that as a tiny babe he knew he had a singular destiny, and that it had been assigned to him by “the forces that be”. They advised, “David remember to say “I want to be a footballer!” when people ask what you want to do when you grow up!” And he did, to the consternation of his teachers, and childhood buddies. David has the carriage of a man with a mission. Handsome, sincere, straight on, matter of fact, he is totally focused on fulfilling his calling; His background is not as “straight on” as one would believe.

David identifies with his maternal grandmother’s Jewish religion; he is a sincerely spiritual man. In his book “Both Feet on the Ground”, he describes Sundays in church with his family, and yet how his calling was to follow the Jewish religion. His parents were fanatical Manchester United supporters who would frequently travel to Old Trafford with little David in toe. In fact, it seemed as if everything that happened to David would lead him to his ultimate destiny, to become one of the most talented sportsmen in the western world.  As a kid he got to go to Bobby Charlton’s football school, a good start for a budding talent. But his launch into the professional stratosphere kicked off when he joined Manchester United. He did not look back from there. Sure he has had ups and downs on the way, but he is a solid, practical man, and always knew how to handle challenges, whether they meant being sent off the field for a foul, having a very public fall out with Sir Alex Ferguson, or suffering severe abuse from British fans.

His moon in Capricorn will always protect him from a hostile world, even though he might seem detached, unassailable, not given to stoking the fires of conflict. His key word is equanimity; he would not like anyone to see how he has been affected by aggressive fans, and unjust criticism. Mr.Mercury in Taurus will keep him focused on the here and now, never wavering, his concentration equally focussed on taking on a free kick or filling in his tax return. He can hone in on anything or anyone utterly. His technique on the field is magic, his flair for the “beautiful game” unique. He is patient he can wait, and this steadfastness is a great advantage, especially since Mercury in Taurus enables him to stand up to controversy, never allowing anyone to rattle his cage, except his beloved Victoria of course. In 1997, he fell for Posh Spice. His Venus in Gemini adored her at first sight, perhaps because she is so stimulating, her mind flits here and there and he never knows what to expect. She makes him laugh, she lightens his load, and since he has no time for emotional drama with that Venus so happily placed in Gemini. David and Victoria got together easily.

We say fate decreed that they rattle our world, their full on mystique mesmerizing, and making them one of the richest and most fascinating show biz couples to parade the red carpet. When David moved to Spain to play for Real Madrid, Victoria looked stunning in long hair, flouncy frocks and hooped earrings, the perfect senorita. When they moved to the US, to play for Los Angeles Galaxy, her fab cool style and natural chutzpah made her a favourite US celebrity; it would be difficult for David to do without her! His Mars in Pisces makes him such a caring, sensitive bloke too. His tendency is to expand in all elements of his life, to grow as a sportsman and personality, not only on the field but as a pin up, David and Victoria have graced the pages of many a fashion magazine participating in countless advertising campaigns. David was also a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF, focusing on their sport’s development programme Jupiter in Aries, will always push him on to experiment, experience, and enjoy a repertoire of fascinating off field activities. You see, when “the forces that be” guided David into this world, they made sure his Saturn was in Cancer. That good old becausemic teacher Mr. S therefore gifted David with emotional resilience, self respect, and a breathtaking vision.   

These gifts are embedded deeply in his DNA, and are indispensable to his success as an iconic sports hero and family man. With that north node in Sagittarius, he will always be reminded of his mission, which is to never scatter his energies, learn to follow his nose, and insist on believing in himself even if other people judge him harshly. It looks like this year David will branch out in new directions. There are some fortunate projects in the offing, and he will work hard to bring them into being. Looks like in 2010 he will be travelling the world and reaching out to a new audience, an audience that needs him to inspire their future that needs him to build up their hopes. David, we sense you are about to step into Part II of your mission, the part the forces that be have not told you about yet! In fact, we cannot wait to see the next instalment of the David Beckham Story!

The latest news on that lovely Taurus, Emma Forbes, is that she has been proposed as a replacement for Fern Britton on This Morning! Well, she has the right vibe, with that Venus in Gemini. In fact, she is a whiz when it comes to the art of conversation, and can put virtually anyone at ease. Plus she is a doting mother of two; the kind of lady the great British public can identify with. In any event, with her show business pedigree to stand her in good stead she would be a good person to hold through a This Morning crisis, i.e. the star guest does not show up, a sex symbol spills tea over her decolte, an overweight housewife pulls a muscle during an exercise class. She is the beloved daughter of Nanette Newman, and Bryan Forbes “a child of the arts!” as it were.  

Her parents are both gifted entertainers, her mother a popular actress, her father a gifted film director, actor and writer. We imagine she was brought up in a glittering show biz milieu that included doting celebrity friends, in fact during her childhood years a next door neighbour was said to be Elton John! Emma was a graduate of the well known Italia Conti stage school and began her career as a children’s presenter, few will forget her “girl next door demeanour” and fresh faced approach to kid’s programmes such as Live and Kicking. But she had no intention of presenting L&K forever, She was an ambitious lady, still is, with that Moon in Scorpio. She moved on to presenting “What’s my Line!” and become the poster girl of a long running ad campaign for “Head and Shoulders” shampoo too. Perhaps as a result of that campaign, she was voted sixty fourth in the line up for the world’s sexiest women. But she is no big head; she takes success in her stride. She has worked darned hard to achieve, to overcome her own doubts and fears! 

Her Sun sign in Taurus makes her a practical, “feet on the ground” type of gal anyway.  She exudes a personality that some may be in awe of it, and okay she could be inclined to dogmatism, or sticking her oar in. The occasional “storm in a teacup” might be the order of the day when she is only trying to balance her energies, like deciding whether she likes you or not. If she does you will be her very best friend and she will express her feelings for you with kind actions and a protective presence. She has high expectations from life, you know, and she is inclined to maintain her “high on the hog” perceptions regarding living standards, her space will be Feng Shui luxurious and her taste in clothes exquisite. Add to that delightful combo a Scorpion moon sex appeal, and she would attract the guys like those proverbial bees to honey. She might even be considered a closet sex kitten. These days she is married to husband Graham. Her vibrant Venus placement will make her a fun companion, she loves hubby’s intelligence, his capacity to see straight into the core of a problem, anyway he would have to be a genius, or at least a half genius, because she will want to talk to him about the String Theory of Einstein’s theory of relativity! 

This beautiful gal suffered from postnatal depression, she recreated herself as a result, morphed into a Children’s Party Hostess to keep active and positive. Some might ask who is that lady rushing around, never stopping, not even to have a second cup of tea. Not to worry, it is just busy Mars in Virgo revving up Emma’s energy systems, and a more laid back North Node in Gemini revving them down! A bit of a mini conflict there, but it will all sort itself out, so you can have that cupper after all Emma. In fact we can see you are almost ready to admit that the challenges of life are an integral part of it, and no matter what happens your best bet is to hang on by your nails to that calm side. By the way, Emma is renowned amongst the under tens for inventing “Star Grub”, a great alternative to a doggy bags, and guaranteed to get the type of Birthday Party where, playing Oranges and Lemons is not even an option, off the ground. 

Her love of children is an integral part of who she is. Emma is now a very active patron for Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital. So yes, Emma, we would love to see you on This Morning, we know you would be an absolute Star. A kind and concerned Venus is guiding you on your way throughout the last part of 2009 well into 2010. Your buzz words will be “fun” and “success”, because things have been a bit slow, and now there are some possibilities to do the things you really love to do. We are shown success and popularity are going to be delivered to Emma on a silver tray, and she will be the last one to say no. Probably she will even pop off to make a cup of tea! Good on ya Emma!

David Gonzalez Giraldo was born in the sign of Cancer on July 20 1982; and the phrase “handsome is as handsome does” could only apply to him. This is a kid with a future, his powerful 6ft four inches frame making him one genial goalkeeper for his Club Atletico Huracan, Argentina. His Jupiter in Scorpio will have gifted him with a refined skill on the field; he will be able to rise to the occasion magnificently, almost every time. He is more than a budding talent; he is the youngest and most gifted goal keeper to have graced Columbian football. Fans will be turning to him and since he will continue to be a smouldering talent ready to burst into flame from one minute to the next, they will not be disappointed. Watch out, just because he is a big dude does not mean our hero is an insensitive macho type of guy.

His moon is also in Cancer, so quite the contrary, he is open hearted, sweet and sensitive, the kind of gentle giant people like to have around. He could get overly sentimental, his moods change as quickly as English weather. He has his own very personal visions and aspirations, and 80 percent are about football. As a child he would have dreamt of making it in the “beautiful game” as he kicked up the dust in a field or piazza, and due to his considerable talent, and friendly nature, the right people popped up to guide him forwards.  His character is so laid back, it could be horizontal at times, and people might think he is shallow or superficial. Be warned he is not. He can be incredibly stubborn and sensitive digging his heels in till he is sure he has reached the winning post, which is the only place he wants it to be. Once he decides to do something he does it.

He pushes himself, he trains till be drops, and his honed in attitude and classy technique usually hits the bullseye! Of course he is a young man now, and can still act out “playful” and “soppy”, especially when he falls in love. His Venus in Gemini will make him a fast talker at the sight of a beauty. In fact he would want as many beauties as possible around him, unless he finds his soul mate. He probably thought he had on numerous occasions, but the game came between them, and it was difficult to maintain both full on, after all he is still acquiring experience as to how to manage his career and social life in a balanced way. He is not inclined to open out about his inner motivations, in fact he could seem a bit of a “dark horse” but this is because he wants to keep life light hearted. He does not believe in confiding in people too much, especially when he is troubled. Mars in Libra shows he prefers to be a fun and socialising type of guy, needing his mates around to de-stress. He has a strong sense of team spirit perhaps because he wants to live in a conflict free world where everyone is cooperative; he hates being put on the spot.

His Jupiter in Scorpio will keep him on the right path, will make sure he trains on time, follows the right diet, retires from social activities when he is preparing for an important game. He knows he has to develop his talent and be careful with the money he earns from it too, he will not throw it away on spending sprees; he will build up a wiser perception of investments as the next years unfold. He will probably get good advice, he usually does! In fact, this year he will be making interesting financial plans, as there is possibly a new deal, which involves a mega galactic sum of money. David is honing in on his skills to perfection, he will get his personality out there on the field, and push himself to the max for his fans, as always a mix match of laid back hyperactivity, if that is possible? We cannot wait to see how his career develops over the next couple of years, and how his fans will continue to cheer him on!  Go for it David!

There could not be a better name for Ms Holden, than Amanda, and no better sun sign for her than Aquarius. Her name sums up her life purpose for the meaning of the name Amanda is “she who must be loved”, and if you add on to that all that open minded Aquarian energy, and those beautiful but unusual looks, it is obvious she cannot fail to obtain the success she desires. Amanda was already an old soul when she dropped off on planet earth, and she continued to develop that inner knowing of hers, even as she grew up in an archetypical English village in Hampshire. As a child she had a naturally magical perception and a mesmeric attraction to acting. She joined a theatre group at only nine years old and went on to study speech and drama at  Bournemouth University , later graduating from Mount view Drama School, with an agent already standing by her side. 

She remembers her times as a drama student in London, “I had a weekend job in a shoe shop to get me through college. I had a grant, but when you study in London you need as much money as you can get. I also once sprayed perfume in Boots for a week, but I couldn’t stand the smell.” She was obviously on a quest, and nothing could stop her from reaching the “castle at the top of the hill”, not even spraying smelly perfume. She continued to move on and up, her good looks and natural charisma drawing much attention, and opening up exciting new vistas. She is certainly a polished performer nowadays, gracious, a pleasure to watch. Those of us who are Amanda fans could get addicted to her strong role in Wild at Heart, the gracious way she judges contestants in Britain’s Got Talent. She sympathises with those folks; she made her TV debut on Blind Date! But not long after she moved into some exciting roles.

She auditioned for Tiffany in East Enders, but hit the jackpot in the successful BAFTA nominated “Cutting It” about stressed hairdressers overcoming life’s challenges. Amanda will go for what a director demands of her, her moon in Libra wanting balance, seeing the other fella’s point of view, consistently working to bring forth a superior performance. Her Mercury in Aquarius will help her synthesize her roles, overcome a tendency to impatience, learn to not always expect things be done “her way!” Mars in Sagittarius will nudge her on, help her work towards a higher vision of her career and life, and make it easy for her to channel energy into inspiring projects. She has a strong will and can adapt to whatever is lain out before her.

Amanda’s love life has had a great deal of media attention. Her first marriage to Les Dennis broke down, and they divorced, some say due to her affair with Neil Morrissey. She is now married to Chris Hughes and is the mother of lovely Alexa, her first child. Amanda is earnest when it comes to love, especially with such a gracious Capricorn in Venus. Even if she did not always succeed in her romantic intentions, she still wants to share deep sentiment, family life inspires her purpose. Mars in Sagittarius will make her straight to the point; she can only really say what she feels, sometimes to her own detriment. But still, up front Mr. Mars will compensate, gifting her with boundless energy, the kind of energy that ran the London marathon for over four hours on behalf of the Born Free Foundation.  

Amanda has come to this earth with a mission, not only to be “one who must be loved”, but to move gracefully through life, giving of her talent, her friendship and her creative gifts.  She might feel she has to move on from a couple of challenging situations in 2009, leave old ways behind her, and examine a new take on her life and her art. She will find herself connecting to a different type of creative project, projects where she can expand, reach out to new ways of presenting her craft. After all she is an Aquarian, the water carrier, a free spirit, Her thought processes are original her take on life unique. We cannot wait to see her advancement as she continually entertains and intrigues us. She is indeed just like her name Amanda, very lovable indeed.

Okay folks; fasten your seat belts because this astro profile will be all about that dude Independent on Sunday voted the 41^st most influential gay in the United Kingdom. Why? Because he is so darned hilarious, and yes, because he is an Aries. The debonair DJ, Radio Presenter Scott Mill’s main aim it to entertain his audience, even to the extent of receiving electric shocks during a daft yes/no question and answer spiel on his show. Why? Well he cares about his public, he wants them roaring with laughter. A dynamic Mars will make him your social butterfly, flying from flower to proverbial flower, in his element when surrounded by an original team of people. He probably wanted to be famous from an early age. He has always been dynamic, his energy of “human dynamo” status. He is a ball of pure chutzpah, of creative and dedicated talent.  His daily shenanigans on the Scott Mills Show have us mesmerized. He began “walking his talk” early, at the age of 16 on a local Hampshire radio station. Back in those Hampshire days he was offered a late night slot, and became so popular he quickly moved on to main stream entertainment. 

Currently, he struts his stuff with great aplomb, and we continue to fall about laughing. Many of us followed his rise to fame, and were delighted when he joined the BBC Radio 1 team to present The Early Breakfast Show. He continued to move up, covering Sara Cox’s slot when she was on maternity leave, and basically he has never looked back. His Mars in imaginative Pisces will make sure those original pranks, and strange, almost out of body perceptions on life are original. Another of his successful personas is that of the actor, he was caught playing a reporter on Casualty and a politician in Hollyoaks! But again with that Mars in cheeky Gemini, he will be more prone to being a prankster, attempting to kiss wild animals or calling computer help lines with absurd takes on Information Technology. His very own Scott Mills Show opens up “alla Monty Python” with that momentous catch phrase “It’s only bley Friday”, screamed at high voltage, classical music playing in the background. 

We cannot fail to want him around as we gulp down our coffee, and stagger out the door, to face yet another day of credit crunches; he cheers us up. As we said, he is an Aries and that fiery sign can have a rather idiotic view of reality, in fact without idiocy our friend would simply collapse into a heap. But surprise, surprise his realistic Moon in Taurus will ensure this chap is down to earth; on a personal level you might discover he is one of the most grounded guys you could ever hope to meet. He can cut through to the root of a problem, analyze the difficult bits, and resolve them all in about ten seconds flat. His thoughts vibrate fast, again Mercury’s fault. He intuitively knows what his audience wants and since he does not believe in procrastinating he gives it to them, and very efficiently too. He has always realised that pressing the laughter button would take him far. 

Yet, even though he is so grounded, ever so often he might dream of flying a kite over the Gobi Desert, or camping in the Ecuadorian jungle. As dedicated as he is to his act, he is not immune to the odd adventure. As far as those personal emotions are concerned, he will be inclined to have a detached perspective of lurve. He does not want to dig too deep, or hit the “passion” button too fast,  if he did, his energy might become dispersive, and he needs to concentrate on his career above all else. Mars in Gemini demands emotional stimulation, so his partner would have to be exciting, wacky, and more than inspiring to hold his attention for more than five minutes. Jupiter in Pisces would encourage our friend to go for the road less traveled every time. Saggy gifts him with inspiration. He is a star not just to his public, but to his friends and nearest and dearest. He has cultivated an almost Pollyanna optimism, creating his own bizarre reality, and whirling it around us like a multi coloured kaleidoscope. His comedic talent will be much needed in the years to come. His shows will become even funnier, more wacko; he will take our minds off the credit crunch and have us thinking things aint so bad after all.

His views are strong and clear, his soul path of uncompromising success. He is a highly intelligent man using his insight and creative flair to build an original future. We see him becoming more slapstick, even more prone to clowning around.  He wants to live up to his public’s expectations and for some time to come he will do just that, his mission is to keep us laughing until the cows come home!  Thanks Scott, we appreciate you, more than you will ever know!! 

Normally when one says someone is a “salt of the earth” the image is of a grounded personality with a practical nature and an open heart, and it describes British Treasure Sherrie Hewson to a T. She is lovely Virgo, so hard working, so no-nonsense, so matter-of-fact. And like most Virgos a chronic worrier, but in her case with a wacko sense of humor, and a honed in ability to see through pretence. She endears herself to us immediately. She is so ordinary, yet so special. So candid yet so sensitive. Tact is certainly not her middle name and when there is a battle to be fought; Sherrie will be in the front line. She would be the best person to call if you were in trouble. Mercury in Virgo will have her stand up to anything or anyone. Energetic Mars in Scorpio will help her face up to a challenge.

She will never forget a kindness, a slight, or her lines; a good memory is useful to an actress! Her Scorpio moon insists on making her a faithful friend too. When she likes you, she likes you. She will stand besides you if you are in trouble, and with one scathing comment cut your adversaries to the quick. Sherrie’s genes are sheer show biz. Her father was a singer, her mother a model, and even as a tot she brought down the house with her signature song “You’ve got to have heart!” In her teens the proverbial door to success opened out wide, not only did she win the Oliver award, but a scholarship to RADA. Her career started to take off in the seventies; she appeared in the famous Z cars series as well as Carry on Laughing. Her screen appearances included The Slipper and the Rose with Richard Chamberlain and Hanover Street with Harrison Ford. An exacting Mercury in Virgo will be her friend when it comes to examining a role in the finest detail, her well honed technique enabling her to merge into a characterization and yet retain a certain detachment, now that is sheer professionalism!

Sherrie also starred in one of the greatest British Soaps, Coronation Street, playing Maureen Naylor a rather daft supermarket employee who had a thing going for a certain Reg. Her performance achieved much acclaim. Yet when she launched into her second soap appearance in Crossroads, it did not go down quite as well. When the show folded she became a unique panelist on Loose Women! Her blunt communication style, her “out there” attitudes have the audience in fits, she always manages to “put her foot in it” with style. When one tunes into Sherrie’s astro picture, what emerges is solidity and a rich inner life. As far as her personal life is concerned, Venus pops up in Virgo here, so there could be an occasional pedantic “who squeezed the toothpaste from the middle of the tube?” attitude, but also such sweetness that the nagging is quickly forgiven. 

Sherrie has a lovely daughter and a little grandson, who she will probably dote on, and tell fun stories to as they giggle and roll around the carpet. But ultimately, Sherrie has an indefinable quality, there is nothing small minded about it, Jupiter in Aquarius would not stand for meanness. She is inclusive, non judgmental. Sherrie’s north node in Pisces would also make her humane, compassionate, the archetypal “chip off the old block” ready to help anyone in need. It is almost certain she is a very old soul, and has come to fulfill her final mission on planet earth. We would be very surprised if Sherrie was not spiritual, a unique style of spiritual of course. She could be someone who believes in the inexplicable mystery of existence, yet not make a big deal out of it, she is far too practical. She would prefer to see the good in humanity rather than the bad, to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, even if her Scorpio moon will not stand for unkind individuals. 

Even as a child, Sherrie knew success would be hers. She watched people, assessing their mannerism, identifying with them; these insightful perceptions have enabled her to be the fine actress she is today. She is on the way to change over the next couple of years, cultivating something new for herself, a new hairstyle, a new look, an even broader approach, she might travel, get involved in a charity drive, whatever she does she will shine at it, and perhaps even touch the core of who she is, that spiritual core that ultimately gives her inner wisdom and joy. We cannot wait to see your new choices Sherrie, we look forwards to them, whatever they are, because we know they will make us laugh, and always love you for the star that you are!

We love her popular website “Oprah.com”, where we can enjoy meditation techniques and interviews with revolutionary new age celebs. She shrieks “reinvent yourself” at us, never afraid to take controversial stands even though heckled for her ground-breaking attitude. She is avant garde yet mainstream, investigative yet inspirational. Interestingly, she was nominated an Academy Award for the Steven Spielberg film the “The Color Purple” a story of a black woman’s struggle, similar to her own. Born in Mississippi to unmarried teenage parents her mother’s immaturity did not protect her from a traumatizing rape at only nine years old, and at fourteen, the birth of a child who later died in infancy. She lived with her grandmother on a pig farm for a while, her gran encouraged her, noticing that as soon as she could talk, and it was as if Oprah was on stage.

She later moved to be with her father Vernon, whose encouragement helped her pursue a higher education. She was earmarked as a bright spark, skipped two classes, became an honors student and was voted the most popular girl on campus. With the help of a hard working Guardian Angel and the glittering rays of Mercury in Aquarius her distinctive Spirit emerged triumphant. She chose to follow a media career. One of the youngest newscasters on air, she soon hosted her own show. By the mid 1990s her interviewing style brought personal prominence and mega bucks. She is said to be worth $1.1 billion. Yet, what magical formula makes everything Oprah touches turn to gold?  Okay, she is obviously distinctive, impressive, has great breadth of vision, yet could it be that Aquarian capacity to disassociate from negative emotions that is the key? She once said “be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough”. 

A stirring Mercury placement will help her cultivate that inspirational capacity to see a bigger picture. Venus in Aquarius will make her magnetic, charismatic, captivating, fascinating, and able to charm others with her direct approach and benevolent energy.  She fascinated Stedman Graham, her long term relationship with this lovely man, after a series of broken romances, has given her the domestic security her heart yearns for. She needs that baseline love to support her dreams. Mars in Scorpio will gift her with a down to earth approach to challenges, standing up to trials most of us would balk out, always fighting on, reaching for magnificent dreams to her last breadth. She will never be sweet, she could be overbearing, and “nothing” can be allowed to stand in the way of her visions.  Her positive soul energy would stop her from being dictatorial and heavy handed though!

She is working for the good of humanity! Okay, she could be given to the odd explosion of irritation, but again she will never fall victim to moods. Jupiter in Gemini has gifted her with the capacity to assimilate information fast she might even have a photographic memory. She will continually attempt to broaden her scope, integrating more knowledge to her repertoire.  But it is her moon in Sagittarius that holds us forever enthralled. The High Priestess of any situation, she will lay her astonishing perceptions before us with grace and savoir faire. Her moon in Saggy will make her consistently curious with a love of travel and people. A humanitarian, opening up a school for underprivileged girls in Africa, not even that dream could be held back by a scandal that recently knocked her for six!

Perhaps her life’s inspiration works because it is found in the hearts, souls and dreams of others, in humanity’s capacity to overcome all odds, just like she did as a child. She will not let anyone block her, repress her. She could fall down over and over again, but that capacity to shine in the dark has made her the immense star of today. Her unique moon placement gives her that sparkle, that “once in a life time” presence, rare qualities that cannot be defined or put into a box, no matter how many envy, judge her, or see her as an upstart! That moon of hers shines on relentlessly leading us all on with inspiration! 
 
In 2009 we will see Oprah working even harder. She will pinpoint her highest visions, pushing herself and her staff to accomplish. She wants something even better for her fans, something even more “enlightening” and she will not hold back until her search clicks into place. Some astounding project is being planned, perhaps to do with saving the world. Her name will be even more bandied around the world as a result she will continue to remain a phenomenal individual, who has graced our television screens with a revolutionary talk show concept that has changed the face of world media forever. Her support of Obama will continue, and we will watch agog, as somehow, something, deep within us changes, together with her. We are living in stunning times, and Oprah will make us more and more aware of this. We will watch you Oprah! We cannot wait for your new vision to reach us across the airwaves! God bless you!

His reports on wrestling, one of his prime interests, put him on the front page originally. He has a nose for getting noticed. Be not surprised to see him start up a skew ball rap session, yet another ruse to catch our attention, in fact we can expect anything from one moment to the next. Girlfriends will come and go but Luke’s leadership genes and fidgety attitudes will stay, making him a surprising winner. A geeky guy with a Hulk sub personality, he plays Jimi Hendrix guitar to millions of adoring fans… in his fantasies. Yes, as we said, he does dream. Okay some might scoff at his speedy new found fame, yet do not underestimate Luke Marsden. 

His Saggy ascendant will teach him big bucks can come and go, but he will never allow fame to color his values. He will learn to ignore those who judge him by standing up to his own emotional reactions, cultivating that empathic personality and delighting his audience. His Saggy ascendant will make him consistently bright, able to read a situation fast and analyse which corner to turn next. In fact, being silly will never be meaningless, new doors will open up to a truly comedic destiny. He is at the very beginning of a long and successful career folks!  He always had to look after himself anyway, and he will continue to take care of the small print, and never expect anyone to do anything for him.

In the past, an unfriendly Mr. Saturn, the planet of lesson learning, could have gotten him depressed, wanting nurturing, feeling needy and consistently overlooked. His sun in the eighth house would have driven him forwards, deciding to build on self confidence rather than self doubt; he wants to feel the ground firmly under his feet, to protect those he loves, to dedicate himself to projects that in his view, only a solid bank balance can build on. But worry not Luke, money will always come your way, and with more show biz maturity another door of will open; you are in the right business to make it through any of your nights!  But ladies, let’s face it, that Venus in Cancer has us inexplicably enchanted. 
 
His super sensitivity, his emotional thin-skin, his touchy feely vulnerability galvanizes our attention, so loved he shall be by a series of doting girl friends, above and beyond present romantic interests. So what is the secret to such fascination? An astro combination of hypersensitive Cancer combined with a super confident and well placed Leo, so quit asking yourself how a basically mainstream guy can have so much sex appeal. This year Uranus influences will push him to sudden changes. He will realize that although people could put a spanner in his works, criticise him, put him down, and make life difficult, he will overcome nevertheless. And to do so he will transform into Hulk at last. We see his physique changing; he might go into muscle building, or some sort of fitness regime to give him the strength to tackle an increasingly successful lifestyle. He could embellish on his wrestling interests even. As a result his affairs will proceed harmoniously with Jupiter on his side.

Opportunity after opportunity will fall into his lap; he will feel a lucky chap! There is nothing clichéd about this guy, he is an original, a fresh faced energy on the show biz scene. New ideas will stimulate his interests he could get involved in a number of fun projects, even politics! Watch this space; we have not heard the end of Mr. Luke Marsden yet. We cheer him on to victory, in his own way he has accomplished much, and deserves more! Bless you Luke!

Her innate curiosity regarding all things pertaining to the human psyche has helped her qualify as a therapist; she earned a top notch Masters degree in Psychology as a result. In fact psychoanalysis would be just the right career for our lovely Marcia, with her Mercury in Pisces she is loving, kind, and yearns to heal the mentally confused. She started her acting career uphill though; her Uranus in Leo would have made her suffer when unable to get a casting or use her interpretative skills to the full. But she soon got into the swing of things and her first important role was that of a nymphomaniac palaeontologist in soap called “The Edge of the Night!” She landed a part in the 13th series of Knots Landing.

Her interpretative gifts are plain for all to see, especially in Desperate Housewives where she seems type caste as the super uptight Bree Van de Kemp. Hers is a riveting interpretation, it manages to convey such a strait laced, steamy neurotic, and she mesmerises us all! She has also played in US TV mammoth hits such as Melrose Place, in which she starred as the psychotic Kimberly Shaw with great success. She empathises with the workings of twisted minds, throwing herself into the more unusual perceptions of life with gusto; her degree in psychology would have helped her in this capacity. She has also had minor parts on Ally McBeal, Spin City , heavier roles have been in CSI, Profiler, and Touched by an Angel.  Strong, independent, winning and gifted, she is willing to give her all to life. Her charisma is awesome; her smile seductive, her red headed looks mesmerising.

She is now a spokesperson for gay rights, after having been earmarked as a lesbian by the tabloids; she retorted she is very supportive of the gay community. In 2005 she married Tom Mahoney, a stoke broker, and is in “heaven right now” as the mother of gorgeous twins. But she suffered when her previous partner Richard Gordon died in 1993 and was not seen to date anyone until she surprised us all suddenly “tying the knot” in 2005. Her moon in Scorpio would make her passionate, extreme, with a forceful personality, she is basically a “live life to the hilt” type of girl. Death would not scare her, but a useless lifestyle would. Her Venus, also in Aries, would make her seductive, glamorous; her life partner will worship her. She needs to feel passion emanating off her man, it keeps her sane, and gives life even more meaning. Romantic love and adoration are fundamental, as she gives as much as she receives. But then Mars in Pisces makes her easy to adore. 

She is so respectful of people, she talks to them with consideration, listens to them intently, understands their quirks, and forgives them their faults.  There is a sort of “angelic” quality to her persona, she just extends out her silver antenna, picks up someone’s hurt, and holds them safe.  Sometimes her extreme sensitivity will make her want to keep a low profile though, and at those times she will not be emotionally available. The world situation will worry her, she will fear for the future of humanity and her children but then she picks herself up, dusts herself down and starts all over - a couple of days shut down is more than enough for her!

Uranus in Leo will give her an uncanny capacity to understand the greater scheme of things, to make use of her natural, inborn spirituality and feel compassion for humanity’s great challenges. Her North Node in Leo will also make her want to sing to her children, tell them fairy tales, happy to return to a magical world of childhood dreams with them. As romantic as the 18th century novelist Emily Bronte, her persona is a “cut out” from a Victorian scrap book. You see, Marcia is indeed a very special being, and will be a light to many lives in the years to come. The coming year will  be wish fulfilling for her, Jupiter is happy for her life, and she will find her career and family go according to plan. Of course not everything will be easy, but she will know how to handle things well, she will just click her fingers, say a couple of positive words, and hey presto, good things will come her way. Her mission is nearly accomplished, she has done all that she came to do. All she needs now is to sit back and let life give her even more. Expect to see a lot more of Marcia and expect to be surprised! She will entertain us, intrigue us and fascinate us for many years to come!

Every colour has a different meaning to it. So let’s talk about the colours that would be used for Love.

RED: Red is the colour of sexuality as well as the colour for the Root Chakra at the base of the spine. This colour tends to have a lot of energy to it when it comes to sexual matters. Burning a red candle can help aid in self manifestation of sexual desire by a partner as well as being more comfortable with ones own sexuality. Many people are uncomfortable with who they are sexually and tend to disguise it by acting in a way that they think is “proper sexual manner”. Being comfortable in your own skin is an important role in attracting a partner. The colour is also good for couples that are having sexual problems in a relationship as well.

PINK: Pink is the colour of Universal Love as well as the Heart Centre Chakra. Don’t get Universal Love confused with Unconditional Love, they are actually separate things. Universal love talks about both giving and receiving love fully and without doubts or fears or prejudice. Burning a pink candle is going to help you be able to give and receive love in all aspects of life not simply in a romantic way. In order to gain a relationship with a person that you have attracted you must be willing to accept their love as they give it and at the same time feed your love back into them creating a full circle of universal and unconditional Love.

BURGUNDY: This is the colour of romance. It is important to give the love an outlet that it can express itself without hesitation. The words “I Love You” have simply lost their meaning in this day and age and does not always instil the feeling of love in people. Romance has become the outlet in which love can flow creatively and instil the feeling of love in the relationship. Remember that old saying ‘Actions speak louder than words’? The colour is also great for couples that may be having difficulties romantically. There are other things that you can use in addition to the candles to help boost the energy of attracting love into your life. Keep in mind as well that Magic is not a guarantee. There is never a way to tell for sure that it is going to work for you, especially if you don’t have a belief in it. It may take some time as well so don’t expect immediate results as there is a lot of energy that has to get together to work for you and sometimes that can take time. So be patient and think positive and you will attract that special love into your life.

Usage of positive symbols can alter energy flow and enhance the surrounding space. It is the easiest way to introduce positivity in our environment. They are normally categorised into 2 types : to remedy/cure a problem, to heal a situation; to act as a booster or enhancer to bring about harmony and prosperity. There are symbols such as crystals that when placed can dissolve negative energy and also stream out purpose-solving, high positive energy. These symbols, when processed and positioned correctly, will definitely yield results. The idea is to create an environment rich with positive symbolism that draws positive thinking, focuses your mind, confidence and then progress and prosperity will result. For example, a Black Tourmaline Crystal Pendant can balance the emotions and calm the mind; a pair of Pink Mandarin Duck statuettes can bond a couple more strongly; A set of Sailing Ship Coins can instigate cash flow in Business; a Pyramid can accumulate Positive Energy; a custom built Crystal Energy Field can bring in Health, Wealth, Harmony & Happiness, etc.

It is important to realise that the remedy by itself is only the hardware part (like a computer). You have to supply the electricity (energising) to switch it on and keep it running. But ultimately you have to supply the proper software (programming) to make it work. Appropriate placement then completes the circle. The image or statue should definitely be energised in ways where it stores enough to last for a few years, not weeks. Then the stored energy should be programmed as to whom and for what purpose it should work. In fact, the source of the energy remedies play an important role in determining the effectiveness. Many who buy Feng shui products from two different sources will find that one is working well and the other may not. But they never bother to ask why that happens. The answer is subtle, the source determines the “root energy” stored in the products. Then the products are (2) cleansed (of negativities that arise during manufacturing/changing hands), (3) instilled with auspicious and positive energy and (4) kept in proper storage area that has a strong positive energy before being sold. Finally, when sold, (5) the expert programs the remedy to the purpose and the user and explains the (6) ideal placement of the energy tool in his/her place.
Then and only then will these remedial tools yield results.

Dowsing, in the fast, generally used, wood. Popular woods that were used for Dowsing were hazel branches, generally forked, along with beech, alder and apple. Nowadays, as before, the Dowsing rods, when used, are held in an L-shape with discovery being made when the rods cross each other. Pendulums used for Dowsing are simply generally string weighted with some type of crystal or other type of weight.

It can be used to locate underground streams of water. Everyone has the ability to divine. For some it will come easily and immediately. To others it may take a little practice. It is a fun way to find answers to some of life’s questions and to develop your psychic ability. People normally turn to divination when they have a burning question or when they are at a crossroad and must make an important life decision. It is usually a time of indecision and divination can help us to determine what is really important to us. Our mind is a strong force that often rules our decision making. Divination helps you to tap into your intuition and find out what you really want and what will really help you to achieve your life goals. Divination can also help you in many everyday practical ways such as: finding something that is lost; for better health; for healing; and even to help you make better gardening decisions.

Although you can use just about any symmetrical object, made from any material, most people tend to choose a pendulum that they like the look of and feel comfortable with. You can buy really lovely pendulums for a small amount of money from new age shops. They are typically made from metal, wood, semi precious stones or crystals and usually come with a chain or cord attached. Remember, that the pendulum is not a magical implement but its the tool that allows you to unlock the secrets of your own higher self.

You may have heard of the name Jackie Stallone, who is Sylvester Stallone’s mother and she is a famous Rumpologist who has been doing this for years. She makes you sit on a photo copier so she can photo copy your butt and then read it for you. She claims that the left and right butt cheeks reveal a person’s past and future, respectively. She thinks that the right buttocks represents the left cerebral hemisphere of the brain, while the left buttocks represents the right hemisphere. Her butt report, she says, can tell you “whether you are going backwards or are going forwards. She also teachers others to do this. José Miranda, learned rumpology from Stallone. Butt reading is no different than reading a palm its just a little stranger that’s all! Rumpology works the same way as astrology, cartomancy and palmistry. You, the reader, will tell the client a few things about herself and what the future holds in store for her. The client can’t do this herself because she doesn’t have the expertise that you have. You don’t have any expertise, you say? That’s why you’re reading this how-to-article. I will give you all the expertise you’ll need. You’ll be amazed at how little you have to know in order to be a successful rumpologist.

Let’s begin with a idea on what a reading is. Every reading is an interpersonal communication activity between the reader and the client and every reading will be different because each person is different. One part will tell the client who she is and the other part telling her what the future holds in store for her. The character analysis are uncannily accurate. People will want to know about such things as health, wealth, and money matters—including career moves or changes. They are interested in love matters and want to know about relationships that await them. Will I find the love of my life? Is my boyfriend cheating on me? The butt is very complex and the effects of years of sitting on one’s butt can distort some of the markings and mislead the butt reader sometimes. But by and large I would say the readings are possibly around 80% accurate which is likened to the accuracy a weather forecast!

If you were born on a SUNDAY you are probably outgoing, self-possessed, poised, and dignified. You have unlimited self-assurance and unhesitatingly, take your rightful place (preferably in the centre) of any social group of which you are a part. Because you basically respect yourself as a person, you are able to respect other people as well, and this naturally wins you their respect in turn. You are a natural-born leader, not because you flaunt yourself, but precisely because you are willing to honour other people’s viewpoints as being valid from their own side. Indeed, they respect your calm reason and objective judgment. You are practical and down-to-earth, and your forthrightness induces other people to look up to you.

If you were born on a Monday you are soft, childlike, spontaneous, and possess the eager cheerfulness of a puppy. You are playful and mischievous, and take a positive, constructive view towards life and its problems. You try to avoid conflict because you have a genuine love of peace and harmony. You have a strong sense of your own personal space, and a respect for that of others, you are both gentle and firm. Because you basically feel good about yourself and truly like yourself, you make it easy for other people to like you as well. You are able to keep cool and collected no matter what is going on around you, because you are very attuned to your own inner voice, and you follow your own intuition with little regard for what other people might think of you.

If you were born on a Tuesday you are irrepressible and adventurous. You have a shrewd, analytical mind which sees clearly through the ulterior motives of other people. You are fearless in confronting other people directly – eyeball to eyeball, cheek to jowl, and in fact you seem to come alive at any hint of confusion or doubt in an opponent. You love challenge for its own sake, but have little patience for thinking in terms of long-term goals or empire building. You prefer keeping loose, agile, and free of commitments so you are always able to land on your feet no matter how hard life buffets you about.

If you were born on a Wednesday you are unabashed and plain-spoken, and do not hesitate to speak your mind and speak to the point. Your no-nonsense approach to people and your ironic sense of humour cut through pretence and go right to the heart of matters. You do nothing for show or effect. Because you feel no need to prove anything to yourself, you feel no need to put on airs, but are able to relax and just be yourself in any company; and your simplicity enables other people to be out-front with you in turn. You tend to rely upon bull-headedness rather than subtlety or guile to get your way; and while your frankness can at times be bruising, your earnestness and sincerity win the admiration of others.

You are forward-looking and hopeful, and are willing to tackle even arduous jobs with a spirit of dedication and enterprise.

You’re not afraid to let it all hang out, to express your true feelings openly and make yourself vulnerable to other people, because you feel you have nothing to be ashamed of or to hide. You are thoroughly candid without being brusque; on the contrary, you are soft, open, and approachable. You don’t let yourself become too dependent on the approval and validation of other people to know your own sense of self-worth.

Because you basically trust your own motives, you are able to trust in the ultimate good nature of other people as well.

If you were born on a Saturday you are serious-minded and reserved. Your patience and forbearance are the product of a true faith in yourself and the power of the universe to sustain you. You are high-minded and courageous, and are always willing to stand alone on your own two feet. You are hard-working and thorough, without demanding any special recognition for your efforts. You are basically self-starting and self-motivating, and therefore you have little need for or interest in the carrot or stick for encouragement. Although you can be independent and maddeningly aloof and blasé, your self-reliance is a model for and stabilizing influence upon other people.

I really would recommend that everyone tries a phone psychic reading, as there really is nothing to lose, only an answer to a question. If you are intrigued by what you hear, you can always continue the call, but it’s your choice.

However, a good psychic will give you enough information to decide how accurate the reading is and how life changing the information could be. When you have found a site with live psychics, you will find information about each psychic offering their services on that site. Each psychic will have ratings as well. Take the time to go through some of these ratings and read what other people have to say about that psychic. Use this information in the deciding who you want to conduct the free phone psychic reading. Also depending on what your question is, some psychics might be more appropriate than others. So before you decide to write psychic phone readings off without even trying one, consider getting you and your friends to try phone psychic readings today and get answers to those questions that keep you awake at night. Indeed, during the pulling of tarot cards, you will be asked to “cut” in order to allow the set to be impregnated by your emotions so try to remain upbeat and positive when you have your reading as you don’t want the cards to represent your state of mind if you are feeling down.

Just concentrate and try to be in a quiet room when you have your psychic reading. Think about the question you want answered and then let the psychic do the rest. You will be amazed at some of the things that they can tell you, about your past, present and future. Try to remain open and accept the information that they tell you, even if it doesn’t make sense to you now, as it will in the future.

I think it is very comforting to think that way, it makes death not that scary anymore. All the answers are within us. Though even when we come to the realization that the answers are within us, we rarely know how to access them. Perhaps it is helpful to view every event as just an event, instead of treating everything as good or bad. This may be a disassociated way of learning to notice the positive in everything.

Past-Life Regression can be obtained with a hypnotherapy technique that can connect you with one or more previous lives, which are relevant to a certain problem or concern. It also allows us to go deeper and see beyond the confusion and illusions of life and offer a healing of the past life that resonates into our current life. The purpose of a Past-Life Regression is to be in position to take the journey into accessing the hidden memories of the subconscious mind, not only from the present life, but also from all the lives we have lived are stored. For the therapy to work, the client needs to believe in reincarnation, as they recall everything during the session, the client maybe given a post-hypnotic suggestions to remember what has occurred. Chronic medical problems such as asthma, allergies, headache and much more may respond very well to past life therapy, to eliminate physical or emotional pain is one of the reasons a person may choose to regress, some will be to diminish the fear of death or maybe to explain recurring and unexplained dreams. Anyway, Hypnosis can be a useful tool in exploring past lives, going through a healing journey involving the experience of an altered psychological state, which allows anyone to be more in touch and responsive to inner experiences, by tuning into various levels of awareness normally not accessible to the conscious mind. To gather information about past lives, hypnosis is by no means the only method that allows us to rediscover ourselves. When past behaviour patterns are dealt with releasing blocked emotions, and guilt, giving us the opportunity to experience insights and freedom, we might even become master of our own destiny.

Once in trance, humans can easily go to other locations and readily observe whatever is there. In fact, every time you have an intuitive hunch or experience déjà vu, you are engaged in quite similar activity. It is true that some people are better at it than others. It may interest you to know that the only difference between psychics and average people is the psychic’s ability to immediately enter into trance, bypassing the hypnotic induction into trance. And no matter whether you call that trance guided meditation, guided imagery, guided relaxation, the state itself is optimally known by its real name: hypnosis. Hypnosis merely sets the conscious mind aside and accesses the subconscious. Your soul is located in your sub conscious mind, which is why the hypnotic state gives you access to so much more of our universe than the conscious.

As with everything, there are individual variations and degrees of experience. Some remote viewers feel their souls leave their bodies. In other words, there is no need to feel uncomfortable about remote viewing, because you will automatically do it in the most comfortable fashion for you. Your subconscious mind will see to that, as its primary directive is to protect you. In fact, most folks do not experience the wrenching sensation of the soul lifting from the body, they simply travel to the destination. The experience is better than lucid dreaming, day dreaming, or sleep dreaming, as you are in charge and fully choose your destinations and time periods. And once at your destination, you can easily move around at the speed of thought by merely choosing to move. Get quiet and close your eyes. Be in a quiet, comfortable place without distractions. Allow yourself to relax fully, letting go of all the tension in your muscles. Start with Remote Viewing by location. View places nearby, such as the next room or outside the building. Go further, such as the next region. Go to the moon, then the stars. Then begin Remote Viewing in time. Find yourself at a happy event a few years ago, then back a few more years, back to being a baby, then back before this life. Visit a few past lives. Or you can go into the future, starting with a few days, then weeks, months, and years. Then continue by viewing your future lives.

In fact, a raw food diet is simply eating food in its natural unprocessed state. You probably already are on part of a raw food diet. If you snack on fruits and vegetables without cooking them, then you’ve eaten raw food.

Raw food, or unprocessed food is much better for you because the act of processing the food strips it of a lot of its vital nutrients. You’ve probably heard that cooking vegetables can leach out a lot of the vitamins and it can also destroy the important food enzymes as well. Packaged foods, that you find in the grocery store like potato flakes to make mashed potatoes and other foods that have been processed in some way to make an easy package meal not only have little nutritional value, but your body simply isn’t made to process these foods. If you think about raw foods as being the natural foods the way that they come from the earth, then it makes sense that these are easier for our bodies to process as these of the foods are great ancestors ate and there really hasn’t been that many generations since grocery stores, and therefore pre packaged foods, were invented. Raw foods are packed full of vitamins and minerals. These food enzymes are important, although you don’t hear a lot about them. One of the things they do is help you digest your food and getting enough enzymes can help your body with the digestion process which takes a lot of energy, and if your body is spending less energy on digestion it will have more energy for you to do the things you like. Did you ever wonder why you feel so tired after you eat a big meal of cooked foods? One of the reasons is because food enzymes are destroyed by cooking, so there are no enzymes to help your body digests that big meal you just ate.

People in a raw food diet eat about 75% of their food as raw and whole foods. This includes fruits, vegetables, sprouts, raw nuts, seaweed and other foods in their natural form. Raw foods can be prepared in a couple of ways. One of the most popular is juicing. Many people go on a juice fast where all they do is drink the juice of raw organic fruits and vegetables. Even just drinking fresh juice in the morning can give your health a boost. Of course, you can simply eat your fruits and vegetables the way nature intended picked straight from the tree. Nuts can be a great raw food that you eat for snacks as well, but be careful because most of the nuts you find in the grocery store are cooked. You need to make sure you get raw nuts which you probably will have to buy either online or from a health food store. You don’t have to all of a sudden start eating 75% of your foods as raw foods in order to enjoy the health benefits of the raw food diet. You can gradually increase the amount of raw foods you eat as time goes on and you will notice how much more energy you have and how healthy you feel. Remember, you are what you eat!

A good starting point for treating shingles is a diet full of fresh fruits and vegetables. A good diet and reducing daily stress will help boost your immune system. A simple remedy for lesions is to apply a cool or cold wet washcloth or towel to the affected area. A wet towel can be put into the freezer for a while after wetting it to make it colder. Eliminate sugar from your diet and add these important nutrients to your daily diet - vitamin E, vitamin B12 and vitamin C. It is recommended that you consult with your doctor before starting any vitamin program. Vitamin E capsules can be squeezed directly onto lesions. Avoid heat as well as tight clothes and itchy fabrics like wool.

Calamine lotion may relieve the pain and help dry the lesions. Shingles is a serious illness and before starting any treatment program you should consult with your doctor. Shingles is the same virus as chicken pox. You cannot catch shingles from someone else unless you’ve never had chicken pox. If you have shingles you should use caution being around pregnant women who have not had chicken pox - you could infect both the woman and her unborn baby.

A ’streaming cold’ where the nose and eyes water profusely, can be inconvenient and even embarrassing but believe it or not, you can help alleviate these runny symptoms with an onion. Simply dip a slice of onion into a glass of hot water for two seconds, then sip the cooled water throughout the day. In fact, onion is a good thing to have around when you have a cold and putting half an onion on the bedside table at night can get rid of your cold symptoms because its odour is inhaled while you sleep.

Our bodies also produce unwanted substances as the normal by product of our digestion and metabolism.. If our body has the proper nutrition in sufficient quantities to provide a healthy biochemistry and if the organs of elimination and detoxification are functioning at optimal levels, our body is able to eliminate these unwanted substances safely and efficiently through the skin, bowels, liver, kidneys and lungs. This manifests as elimination through perspiration, bowel elimination, urination and respiration. However, if the body is producing and taking in more toxins than it can safely eliminate, a state of chronic toxicity may occur. Most chronic illnesses are the result of a combination of factors. The main contributing factors, however, can be attributed to the presence of unwanted substances in the body or the lack of needed substances in the body and, in many cases, a combination of both of these factors. When the body has been overburdened, it loses its capacity to detoxify at the same rate that toxins are being produced and ingested. It is under these unnatural conditions that we begin to manifest symptoms of being overloaded with toxicity and our organs are weakened. It is thought by many natural health professionals that this prolonged state of toxicity undermines organ function and is the underlying cause of many chronic diseases. The presence of unwanted substances in the body is a very common root of illness. However, for effective detoxification it is essential to provide the body with the necessary dietary substances so that the body can perform this important and natural function. “Detoxification” refers to the body’s ability to neutralize and safely eliminate harmful chemicals within the body. Any detoxification program is designed to enhance the body’s ability to handle toxins. Detoxification has a beneficial effect on most chronic illnesses because it has an impact on almost all systems of the body: cardiovascular, nervous, immune, respiratory, reproductive, gastrointestinal, urinary, skin, musculoskeletal and endocrine. Common symptoms alleviated by detoxification may include: Headaches, stiff or aching joints and muscles, infections, allergies, respiratory problems, digestive problems, constipation, acne, low energy and feeling tired all the time, irritability, not being able to concentrate. Moodiness or depression and poor quality sleep. So it may be worth taking a look or talking to a health advisor about detox.

Magnet therapy in its various forms has been claimed to produce positive pain relieving effects in the treatment of a great number of conditions, including back and neck pain, arthritis, muscle soreness, carpal tunnel syndrome - and the list goes on.

Some people are so firmly convinced by the effectiveness of magnet therapy that they choose it as an alternative to over-the-counter painkillers. One of the advantages of using magnet therapy as an alternative to painkillers is that there appear to be no risks associated with magnet therapy other than the possibility of it being ineffective. Meanwhile, painkillers sometimes have side effects that can result in health problems for users. The effectiveness of painkillers is also debatable, as over-the-counter medications are limited in their effectiveness to begin with. Furthermore, users can build up tolerances to drugs they take frequently, rendering them even less effective for pain relief. I would just like to point out though that magnet therapy is not a proven avenue of medical treatment, but that for many people it does act as an effective supplementary treatment for pain and discomfort. The best way to test it is to try it out for yourself. Magnet therapy products tend to be relatively inexpensive - so get yourself a bracelet and see what you think. If it isn’t doing anything for you, then at least you’ve got a nice new addition to your jewellery collection!

Short-term insomnia is less fun. It can last for about 2-3 weeks. Causes could be something like a new job, divorce, serious illness, financial problems, or a family bereavement. Chronic as the name suggests is the real thing. Chronic insomnia is the rarest and most serious type, with Insomnia lasting longer than a few weeks. While it would be nice to blame insomnia on things outside our control , many cases of insomnia are self inflicted by such things as caffeine, smoking, poor eating habits, alcohol and lack of exercise. Caffeine is one the most widely blamed causes of insomnia. An ingredient in coffee, tea, colas, chocolate, and some medications, caffeine is a stimulant .Insomniacs DO NOT NEED stimulants. Quite the reverse. Insomnia solution number one - Cut out the caffeine. Alcohol is often recommended as a nightcap. Forget it. Alcohol actually lightens sleep, causing you to wake up as your body metabolizes it. You may think you’re in a deep sleep, but your not getting the deep sleep that Insomniacs need for a cure. Avoid spicy and fatty foods that cause indigestion. Milk has an amino acid that the body converts to a sleep-enhancing compound in the brain. Calcium is a natural relaxing agent along with several other vitamins such as the B vitamins and magnesium. If you get hungry at night, have a light snack before bedtime. Some foods are helpful and actually promote production of melatonin, a hormone associated sleep. Try cheese, soy nuts, chicken, pumpkinseeds, and turkey. High-carbohydrate foods such as bread act upon another hormone, serotonin, which helps to reduce anxiety and contribute to an insomnia solution. Nicotine products are universally bad for you. For the Insomniac nicotine has to go. It’s a stimulant that increases blood pressure, speeds up the heart rate, and stimulates brain activity. Insomniacs do not need increased blood pressure, a fast heart rate and a stimulant. Regular exercise is good in fact its excellent, (here comes the but) but, not just before bed. If you work out too close to bedtime, the increase in your heart rate and metabolism will make your body too excitable to sleep. Exercise earlier in the day and give the body a chance to produce that warm rosy glow and relax as the body reacts by producing melatonin to take your temperature down to normal. Exercise for an insomnia solution! Make your bed as comfortable as possible. Experiment with what works best for you. Choose a position conducive to sleep. If your partner is the source of your insomnia consider a change of rooms for a while. Get rid of the alarm clock . It only acts as a stressful reminder that you aren’t sleeping. Control the amount of light in your bedroom. Excessive brightness not only affects your eyes, but it also influences the hormone production that helps to establish a healthy sleep cycle. Wear a sleep mask if necessary. Dark is usually good for an insomnia solution.
When it comes to noise, many people find repetitive sounds easier to sleep through than abrupt ones. Ear plugs or a continuous background sound such as a fan can help mask disturbing noise. Consider is a white noise machine. Control the thermostat. Temperature extremes, whether too hot or too cold, are no fun for the light sleeper. Cool is usually good for an insomnia solution.

Tea’s anti-oxidants seem to protect brain cells, making them less likely to be affected by the chemicals that affect cells and lead to Alzheimer’s. In addition, because the number one risk factor for Alzheimer’s is aging, green tea’s ability to reduce premature aging could mean that tea drinkers may have bodies that are far younger than their age implies. This would mean that they would be likely to suffer Alzheimer’s at a much later age, if at all. Recently, scientists have discovered a relationship between green tea and the prevention of Parkinson’s disease. Green tea seems to have a positive affect on the transport of dopamine in the brain, and this is good news for the prevention of Parkinson’s. So, as you can see, green tea holds much potential in the world of medicine. As research continues, we may find thousands of ways that green tea can prevent and treat diseases. In the meantime, doesn’t it make sense to add green tea to your diet and take advantage of the many health benefits it offers?

We all have dreams and goals and we don’t know how those dreams will be achieved. The achievement still rests in the unknown. By having the faith to know that even though we don’t know how just yet, a way will reveal itself gives you the strength and motivation to continue when otherwise defeat would seem the only possible outcome. One of the big keys to personal development and growth is learning to deal with the unknown, being able to jump without seeing how high you are or how you are going to land. Faith is the parachute, but it will not open until you make that leap. Most will never make that leap because they need to know the parachute will open before jumping! Nobody knows if a business will succeed until it’s opened, nobody knows if a relationship will work until it’s entered, nobody wins the lottery without buying a ticket, this is how life works. All of these require a leap of faith into the unknown. The unknown is not something to fear, it’s something to be embraced, it is where you hopes, goals and aspirations currently are. It is where your destiny is. Overcome your fear and watch your life leap from strength to strength.

Halloween and its festivities have now been spread to most of the western world. However, the old Halloween meaning has been lost and replaced. Nowadays Halloween is seen as a festive holiday of fun and spookiness. A time to dress up and have a fun time, maybe to go ‘trick or treating’ or to go to a spooky Halloween part. For one day and night only we have a chance to go back to childhood and do crazy things, this is also a very good way to leave some stress and anxiety behind and let go for a few hours, spend some nice moments with your family and behave like you were eight years old once again, you will feel a whole lot better after this day, and your family will love that new side of you too. Halloween is a time to spook yourself, or maybe someone else. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Do you know anyone like that in your life? Do you know someone who constantly tries to suck the life force out of you or those around you? What you can do about it? Surround yourself with positivity. We are all just made up of energy, and we release and take on energy with every breath and thought. We must be very careful with whom we associate with and with whom we allow into our energy zone. Do not allow anyone the chance to steal your life force! The other very important distinction is being aware of your own “self talk”. The chatter in your own mind is even more important than what others say. Keep your thoughts positive. If you find yourself caught up in negative self-talk stop at once and change your chatter. You must be aware of the times you aren’t saying or thinking nice thoughts about yourself. Remember you are a good person and you must not listen to any negativity. You are listening and conditioning your hidden self-image whether or not you are aware of it. If you ever catch yourself talking negatively, immediately change ” mental tracks” and say something positive to yourself. Try to be in tune with the mental chatter that goes on in your own head. Stop any negative dialogue that you catch yourself having, and replace it immediately with something positive! It may take a bit of getting used to but you can do it over time. So do you know of anyone who likes to steal away your positivity and introduce negativity? Might be a good idea to stay as far away from that person as you can, other that that, carry some garlic around your neck!!

Then it’s over, after seconds or minutes. The intruders vanish. Victims are back in their own beds and can move again. When you dream, you are paralyzed. It’s a natural adaptation to prevent people from lashing out, jumping out of bed, walking into doors or windows, and otherwise injuring themselves. But it’s possible to wake up while still paralyzed. Bizarre effects aside, sleep paralysis is normal. It’s not a sign of mental illness. About 25 percent of people around the world have experienced it, and about 5 percent get the whole show of sight, sound, tactile hallucinations, and abduction. Some of these people become completely absorbed by what happened and seek an explanation of it.

Such techniques include hypnosis, guided imagery, regression, and relaxation therapies are needed. “These all work in roughly the same way,” “The therapist lulls the abductees into a suggestive state, in which normal reality constraints are relaxed, and then asks the person to vividly image things that might have happened.” or might not have happened. Whether it is true or not, that causes sweaty hands and rapid heartbeats because it feels so real.

Add to this a recurring interest in aliens expressed in books, in movies, and on television, as well as true discoveries of more than 150 planets orbiting other stars in our galaxy. Overwhelmed by this hurricane of sleep paralysis some people seek explanations in ghosts and reincarnations. Others find that alien abductions provide answers and peace of mind. Either way something feels like it has definitely happened to you and you need some answers. The first thing would be to find a hypnotherapist would can regress you and find out what has happened.

With that Cancerian ascendant, being truthful to her music has been challenging. She is sensitive, liable to be hurt when criticised, liable to hide her light under a bushel when over stressed by public and press attention. Her emotions are intense, difficult to express at times, even with that alert Gemini mind she can fall into a deep hole of overreaction to criticism, whether from the show biz fraternity or those she cares for. She has had some significant love affairs, one with Michael Hutchence the INXS lead singer, who as we all know, died in mysterious circumstances and who liked to “corrupt Kylie” writing the hit “Suicide Blonde” that she so inspired. 

She was also involved with a French photographer called Stephane Sednaoui, and had a long term affair with the French actor Oliver Martinez, now over. Kylie might think she is not suited to commitment, but this is because of her Venus in Gemini. Yet when love is in the air she wallows in it that is until she gets into that unconscious fear of being tied down.  She does not go a whole bunch on emotional drama and is somewhat afraid of the “closer” more intimate aspects of relationships. With those sudden strong “Cancerian” emotions overwhelming her, and all that pulling back from a “fall into passion”, she can be confusing to the men who love her, usually rough diamond-type dudes. With that Mars in Gemini she can seem so detached, almost too playful and easy going. This creates difficulties, mainly because her north node in Aries makes her surprisingly introverted when it comes to love, totally opposite to her sexy image as a performer. When we see her on stage and screen, she is a free spirit, with an astonishing presentation, that awesome charisma, larger than life energy, more beautiful on stage that in real life, her astonishing lower back a fixation for males of all ages! 

What gives her that warm vibe then, that communicative persona? One of her ex boyfriends said it was a combination of “geisha and manga super heroine” but we can see it is also Jupiter in Leo. Mr Jupiter encourages her to inspire us, to stimulate us as she accentuates her gifts, strutting around the stage with no self consciousness whatsoever. She is one of the greats, she has thrilled us, made us laugh and cry with her. Over the next couple of years she will find herself in a very fortunate position. There is a sort of “super Jupiter” effect, leading her to answers to her prayers. If she just stops her social rounds, her performances, and takes a trip to a wishing well somewhere, whispering what she truly, deeply desires for her life into its depths, all that she most yearns for will come to her. 

That sweet innocent Charlene is still there really, the girl who just accepts life for what it is, without complications, able to welcome true love, and get married in white. If Kylie could realise that split in her persona can be united into one, we predict a wonderful, warm and loving future for her. God bless you anyway honey, you are our golden girl, and you take our breath away!

Saturn in Gemini would have made her conscientious, crossing her t’s and dotting her I’s with meticulous exactitude. Therefore her choice of a legal career was not a surprise to those who knew and loved her, especially since Mercury in Libra would have encouraged her to study all night long to get through her bar exam. She passed it in 1965 and worked in the family courts system slowly building on her “to the point, no nonsense style”. But for all her brilliance, even she could not have imagined her star strewn future career as a television personality on her own syndicated show “Judge Judy”.  She had already achieved a tough reputation; she had indeed retired amidst praise and acknowledgement. A bright and energetic senior she said, “I’m not tired. I still feel engaged by what I do and I still have people who like to watch my programme!” But her slot on her prime time show was different to anything her audience had experienced; she fulfilled a need to see justice done, the bad guys put behind bars by a petite, wholesome lady. 

Soon she was pulling an audience of 10 million, mainly female fans fascinated by her sense of humor and tough attitude. Author Brendan I. Koerner commented on the success of her show. “Court-show viewers don’t seem to want moral conundrums or technical wrinkles. They love Sheindlin’s show because she offers them a fantasy of how they’d like the justice system to operate—swiftly, and without procedural mishaps or uppity lawyers. They get to see wrongdoers publicly humiliated by a strong authority figure….” Some might see this show as politically incorrect, as drastic even, they might comment that arduous trials and convoluted legalities are best left behind closed doors, but still, no one can deny this lady is a riveting, addictive watch, a well chosen crowd pleaser. Of course she would have to be a Libra, wielding her scales of justice with almost surgical precision. Yet do not be bamboozled, Judith is not as tough as she appears. That “strong take” is a super imposed professional mask, behind it you will discover a gentle soul, deeply kind to those she respects, loves and trusts.   Her head and her heart are in two different time zones.

Her head is that of a senior, well educated, astute, with a keen survival instinct. Her heart is that of a young girl, with a deep love for humanity, “compassion” could be her second name. Venus in Libra would make her a true romantic, an old style maverick fighting for old style decency and fairness. She is on a heroic quest.  She demands righteousness. Her home would be beautiful, with that Jupiter in Cancer, not one speck of dust on the mantelpiece. She would receive her “chosen ones” with warmth and life long affection.  Her motherly qualities make her a super friend and a staunch ally. With Mr. Mars blessing her in Libra, she would emanate a chic, rater refined dress sense. Conservative, borderline “prim” she emanates a sense of “togetherness”. She is driven by something deep, perhaps an unconscious need to please. She carries a torch for her father; she wants him to be proud of her above and beyond the needs of a material world.

So what is this lady’s soul mission you might ask? Well, with that north node in Virgo, serving others, being a teacher and leader, an example of how a woman can cut through the dross.  Okay, if she uses the medium of television, so what. Judge Judy is on a higher mission. 2009 and 2010 shows a spiritual influence. She could lose a close friend; she could realise that special, sweet something within her heart needs to be expressed.   She has always had a deep desire for knowledge, so she will not stop when faced with a new surprising metaphysical new take on life. She is after all, a complex, multifaceted woman, the kind of soul that grows. We will always want to watch her, and will not be surprised by any of her new life choices.  She deserves her success!  As long as we see the baddie behind bars, we will cry, “Well done Judy!”

Everyone is aware of his or her five senses, seeing, feeling, smelling, hearing and tasting. What everyone is not so well aware of is their sixth sense, which is a connection to something more. The sixth sense is a part of everyone. It is a normal part of the human psyche and should not be associated with fear. Every human is equipped from birth with what they need to communicate to something more from where they came, and to where they will eventually go. This is the same phenomenon that works in transmissions such as the television or radio. These require that you tune into a particular frequency to get the program that you want. The sixth sense is similar in that it requires tuning in to the frequency of someone in the spirit world. Spiritual tuning is done through the brain with focus, intent and desire. Although, tuning by focus is inconsistent and electronic tuning is reliable and consistent it is no less scientific. Consider the technology that we take for granted, who would have thought that they would have predicted one hundred years ago where we would be today! In years to come we will not think it strange to get in touch with our sixth sense more and this will be regarded as natural. So it is with mediums and communication with the other world. You don’t have to be a practiced medium to make contact with the souls from the spirit world. At one time or another, everyone that is alive today has seen them, heard from them, been touched by them, smelt them. Those that can’t recall having the experience are not aware of the signs. This is the first step in development of your sixth sense, recognizing the times that you have been touched by those in the spirit world. Because of the large number of people who have had such extra-sensory experiences as foreseeing the future, seeing what seemed to be spirits, and possibly reading the minds of others, there is a good probability that all humans have what is called a sixth sense. Some people seem to have it more than others. It is possible to verify that you have this sense and perhaps even improve your sensitivity to it. There is absolutely nothing to fear as they aren’t here to harm or frighten you but to make you aware that they are around you all the time, mostly your loved ones that has passed on and want you to know that they still care about you. So your sixth sense is something you were born with and some of you may like to develop it further. It is a great way of opening up to the things you don’t understand and to get to understand things a little better. So next time you feel something around you then you will know that this is your sixth sense working for you. Go with it and don’t argue with it, just let it be and you will start to find the answers to some of your questions.

She admits she used drugs, and child custody was discussed with Brian.  No matter what, kind Venus in Cancer, accentuated this lovely girl’s sweeter gifts, the ones that win through, the ones that make her loving, kind, so protective of the young, she is a patron of the Shannon Bradshaw Trust helping children with life threatening conditions!  She knows what it is like to feel alone; she knows what it is like to feel different! Of course, after her break up with McFadden, a new love popped into her life unexpectedly. She married former childhood sweetheart Mark Croft with whom she had another two children. But bad luck hit when she and Mark were taken hostage in their own home. The experience was horrific; they were threatened with rape and death. She was held at knifepoint, and even though they were unharmed, the shock was hard to get over.  She must have thought “Why did this happen to us?” 

In fact Katona had to enter The Priory Hospital as she was suffering from bi polar disorder. The disorder was said to have been brought on by the robbery! Her stars show this lady is caught in the middle of a raging inner battle; yet her capacity to tune into the spiritual energies could help her achieve more balance and solidity. But first she will have to stand up to the criticism, the demise of her popularity, the fact that she was voted one of the most irritating individuals in showbiz. She has stood up for herself, yes, but her baseline childhood issues still sneak through. Her Guardian Angel is trying to remind her of something hidden in her date of birth. She was born on a “six” day. This means that underneath all that “acting out”, she has a loving nature. She is a good mother, a dear friend; someone one can rely on for a shoulder to cry on. She just has to work herself out, eradicate that entire “trauma deal” from the tissue of her life, or she will be inclined to repeat it again and again. There is a sense of spiritual healer to her, a sense that if she lifted her view of life to a higher level, she would find unexpected solutions and could help a lot of people. For now, she is caught between the higher Spiritual, the Lower material.

But remember folks; Cinderella went to the ball, even though the clock struck midnight, even though her beautiful dress turned to rags, and her coach into a pumpkin.  We all know what the outcome of that fairy story is? 

In other words, Kerry needs to remember her gifts to find her prince. He is not a real person; he is a part of herself.  As her life unfolds, and solutions come, she will stand up and be counted. She will realise that being loved is nothing to do with the way she looks bur rather the way she is.   She needs to be careful not to float off into those Neptunian dreams that come in the form of alcohol and drugs, but if she can acknowledge the force of her personality, and get involved with helping others as much as she can, she will win through. She has so much energy, so much chutzpah, it would be no surprise to see her turn her life around in 2010, just as she did as a child. She will surprise herself. Our advice is do not give up honey, you have a wonderful life to look forwards to!
