           Four more possibles for 2020 – Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren, Kirsten Gillibrand and Amy Klobuchar. California Senator and former state attorney Kamala Harris, born 20 October 1964 9.28pm Oakland, California, is picking up favourable media attention at the moment but there’s a troubling piece in the NY Times questioning her legend as a progressive, pointing out she did little to act for criminal justice reform and fought to uphold wrongful convictions that had been secured through official misconduct including evidence tampering, false testimony and the suppression of crucial information by prosecutors. (URL below) She has an entertainer’s, attention-seeking 5th house Libra Sun opposition an Aries Moon; with a Fixed Grand Cross of Saturn in Aquarius opposition Mars in Leo square …Keep reading »

         Wow. That was a defeat and a half. A loss by 230 votes kicks Theresa May’s deal into oblivion and the UK’s Brexit strategy into utter shambles territory. No one knows what comes next except that both May and Corbyn have so blotted their copy books that they have to go and sooner rather than later. May will probably win the immediate confidence vote with DUP help, since they dislike Corbyn’s united Ireland policies, but it doesn’t move the argument on. ‘Cometh the hour, cometh the man’ – hasn’t produced any obvious candidates to date though there is talk of cross-party seniors taking power back into the hands of parliament away from the government. The relationship chart between …Keep reading »

       The kidnapping of 13 year old Jayme Closs, after the murder of her parents, was set in motion when Jake Patterson spotted her on a school bus as he drove behind. He then organised his crime meticulously, shaving his head to ensure there would be little forensic evidence left and shot them in front of her. It sounds unbelievable as well as psychopathic. He held her prisoner for three months in a cabin in Wisconsin woods until she was able to escape. Born 17 June 1997 (police) he’s a Sun Gemini in an impulsive square to Mars, North Node in Virgo and a confident trine to Jupiter in Aquarius. According to class mates he was very quiet in …Keep reading »

     Carol Channing, the larger than life, irrepressible comic Broadway star of “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” and “Hello, Dolly!” has died aged 97. “She brought to the stage a beguiling energy, striking presence and a dazzling song-and-dance technique. Her frantic delivery, huge, saucer-shaped eyes and remorselessly wide grin came to epitomise Hollywood’s idea of the dizzy blonde.” (Telegraph). And she kept on going, appearing in a revival of “Hello, Dolly!” when she was 74 and ten years later she was a hit in cabaret act. Born 31 January 1921 9pm Seattle, Washington, she had an entertaining 5th house Sun in outrageous Aquarius (often a comedian’s sign) opposition musical Neptune. Her passionately enthusiastic Venus Mars in Pisces was on her Descendant, …Keep reading »

         Two more democratic names into the 2020 ring. Of which Tulsi Gabbard, Congresswoman for Hawaii, has the most interesting astrology. She was pro-Bernie Sanders but has had a quixotic approach to foreign policy especially in the Middle East, and some pro-Israeli connections that may appeal to the far-right despite her leftish politics. Born 12 April 1981 in American Samoa, she’s a fiendishly ambitious Sun Mars in Aries opposition Pluto. It’ll be a punishing battle from now onwards with tr Pluto square her Mars and then her Sun/Mars midpoint bringing acute frustrations until just before the election. But at the election tr Jupiter Pluto are exactly square her Sun and Pluto which could bring a major boost. Plus she …Keep reading »

       Laurel & Hardy were a twosome so iconic the name of their act entered the lexicon as meaning an inseparable duo. A new biopic movie ‘Stan & Ollie’ picks up the pair towards the end of their career, having been two of the biggest stars in Hollywood, known for their over-the-top slapstick comedy, with 100 films to their credit since the late 1920s. By the early 1950s they were down on their luck running into health and money problems. Oliver Hardy was born 18 January 1892 9.02 am Harlem. Georgia and Stan Laurel 16 June 1890 in the north of England. I’d have expected to see more obvious crossovers in their charts which apart from mild Venus connections …Keep reading »

     James Middleton, brother of Kate, Duchess of Cambridge and Pippa, has opened up about suffering from depression which effectively brought his life to a halt in late 2016. Born 15 April 1987, he has always been severely dyslexic and was recently diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder. He’s a Sun Aries trine Saturn Uranus in Sagittarius, so fiery, got innovative ideas, good starter, not necessarily such a good finisher. More significantly he’s got two Yods – Pluto sextile Neptune inconjunct Mars in Gemini and Mars sextile Jupiter inconjunct Pluto.  Yods tend to accompany a sense of not fitting in, always being out of step, until a purposeful direction is chosen. A Yod onto Mars gives a tendency to plunge …Keep reading »
