A new biopic of Amy Winehouse and the Jupiter Uranus conjunction of last week made me check out Winehouse’s astrology. And indeed, she had a Jupiter Uranus conjunction in Sagittarius quite close, Jupiter at 4’19 and Uranus at 5’29, both opposite Chiron at 2’55 Gemini in the 12th house.

Wheels within wheels
Looking of cycles of awakening, unraveling and crisis through astrology.
In the book, The Fourth Turning1 the authors discuss how history is made up of around 80-90 year cycles. What is an 80-90 year cycle in astrology? Well, our old friend Uranus who has a cycle of around 84 years. The Neptune cycle is around 165 years, so a half Neptune return would fit.
The darkening of the light
Tomorrow’s Solar eclipse has caused a good deal of debate and fantastical interpretation. Looking at the astrology of the eclipse, it is, a startling one.

For this essay I look at two current misogynists both of whom have come a cropper due to their women-hating behaviour. I wondered what I wouldContinue reading “Misogyny….”
