The Red Diary on the 25th June 2023
Can “you feel it coming in the air tonight”?
The electro static build up, just whistling around you, hoping that you are out of balance and distracted so it can whoosh through you, as the wind whips the naked branches of a tree during the height of a winter storm!
Can you hear the noise of your head build as irritation bites and those you love become comfortable targets for those steamy arrows?
Are you grounding yourself or at very least remaining mindful of your actions, as the heat of your sOul can suddenly flash forth with consequences much longer than the momentary rush of blood to your head?
Can you not see the omens of misused and misdirected libidinal chi in the world around you?
Let me ask you a question – do you need to engage or can you find an alternative pathway that can honour your need to openly express your heart felt disappointment and frustrations, but that does not bind you indefinitely into more therapy, karma and regret?
Today is a day to draw down this energy without blowing a gasket and channel this passion through you in a manner that does not result in a soap opera drama.
Will you rise above the base feelings that pulse through your veins or will you remain enslaved by your ego?
That choice is, once again, yours to make!!

https://www.andrewsmith.ieAstrology has been my sole source of income, my way of being and the way that I live since discovering it on the 17th Jan 1993. Self-taught, I did sojourn with a correspondence course with the Faculty of Astrological Studies under the tutorship of Christine Tate-Wheeler, completing three of the four year training modules in a little under a year. However, I never sat the exams due to my commitments to seeing clients and running a school of astrology called The Dublin Astrological Centre.I’ve been ever so fortunate to have attracted people who wanted to work with me from the very beginning of my path and I’ve worked with clients intensely on a daily basis since 1994. I have a varied clientele, located all over the world, and have worked privately with individuals and corporately with business, sports clubs, political parties and religious institutions for over two decades. My practise is based in my office in Blackrock, Dublin, Ireland, from where I write, divine, create and see clients in person or via ZOOM.Until the time of my movement onto my current path, I was reading Geography in Trinity College, Dublin and playing football, two additional passions I still have today. I currently reside in Greystones, Ireland with my family. My life-partner and wife, Karen, walks the same path as an astrologer and we have two children, Sarah and Maya. Together we run the Blue Rose, a school of astrology and spirituality and have students all over the world who download our classes, join in via ZOOM or attend in person.
My focus is evident in my extensive public writing. I am interested in helping people develop a deeper confidence in their commitment to what they lOve and living what they love. And I would lOve to share my passion with you and to work with you concerning what you love.I look forward to working with you.
