The Neon Diary

The 19th January as the Cardinal Earth Sun squares Cardinal Fire Uranus So you are leaving behind the familiar and the comfortable! Maybe it’s a job you’ve had for too long and you have now decided to conscious pursue your vocation; perhaps it is a relationship  that has suffocated you and you have finally decided…

The Orange Diary

The 14th January as Mercury conjoins Saturn in Cardinal Earth Paradox abounds within this mind-time as you feel the eagerness of spring in the air yet can still feel the warmth of winter’s fires beckon you to stay a while longer. Feeling time’s insatiable march pressurises you to ‘get on with it’ and make it…

The Venus Diary

The 13th January as Mutable Fire Venus octiles Cardinal Earth Pluto Ah, the complex weave that you spin along the path of the Heart. Love battles with lOve; friendship battles between unconditional acceptance and conditional expectation; lovers merge, their bodies becoming one, but yet remain alone and lonely, distracted by their own unloveableness, unable to…

The Gold Diary

The 11th January as the Cardinal Earth Sun conjoins Cardinal Earth Pluto Just as you thought it was seen, further layers are peeled back and you are left wondering – will it ever be truly healed? That elephant… How did it get there? Why has it returned when it was ‘seen’, discussed and rehomed? Yet…

The Venus Diary

The 5th January as Fixed Water Venus trines Mutable Water Chiron Despite being trained to live within a monochrome world – you have a single life purpose (unchanging and ever constant); you will meet the One and live harmoniously and happily; will have a place in the world that best suits you; you will have…

The Venus Diary

The 4th January as Fixed Water Venus octiles Cardinal Earth Saturn Each of us carries a poignant story around our damaged sense of worth, often hidden beneath an impenetrable wall masking a raw and vulnerable heart who is only seeking acceptance and lOve. That story is seldom shared, as pride, self-judgement and shame sit on…

The Gold Diary

3rd January as the Cardinal Earth Sun sextiles Mutable Water Neptune “There is a quiet light that shines in every heart. It draws no attention to itself though it is always secretly there. It is what illuminates our minds to see beauty, our desire to seek possibility and our hearts to love life.” – John…

The Two Books

The New Moon in Cardinal Earth (Sextile Neptune and located between Saturn and Pluto) The climb to this place, akin to Frodo Baggins and Sam Gamgee’s assault of Mount Doom in Mordor, has been monumental. After much labouring, ascending many a treacherous track, having explored too many cul de sacs and having had to ford…

The Gold Diary

2nd January as the Sun and Saturn conjoin in Cardinal Earth More important than the arbitrary calendar rebirth is today’s cazimi conjunction and parallel of the Sun and Saturn in Cardinal Earth, a conjunction that occurs every year when the Sun reaches the same celestial longitude as Saturn, but it has not happened within Cardinal…

The Gold Diary

1st January as the Western calendar year 2019 begins I was never one to celebrate the change of calendar as a child. Plagued by the pang of deep Irish guilt as an adult when surrounded by an ocean of revellers on the 31st December, enthusiastically counting away time, eagerly anticipating a dawn that would miraculously…
