Would also love some insight on the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), apparently a Genz Z type revolt in India, which is challenging Modis government.
Hi Marjorie.
If possible I would love a look at the chart of Ollie Robinson. Just recalled to the England team after a two year absence, he took three wickets in his first over this week playing against New Zealand at Lords. His comeback is giving the England cricket team a boost after a disastrous Ashes tour in Australia. He was born on 1 December 1993 in Margate Kent and is a controversial character though he says he is more mature now.
Do you mind having a look at this plot twist, not saying it is anything beyond a short popularity boost (happy for him), just curious.
Would you please look at late NY mob boss John Gotti’s grandson Carmine who was just sentenced to 14 months in jail? Awaiting to surrender for laundering COVID relief money, he attacked his girlfriend. His mom is mob famous Victoria Gotti. Is there an astrological connection for the family?
Very sad to hear of the death of actor, Anthony Head. Just 72.
Oh my I had no idea. Very sad indeed and 72 is so young to die. My mom is 76 and I hope she will be around for a long time, she has tonnes of energy. Very sorry for his loved ones.
While there’s a lot of talk about possible unrest in the UK, there’s an interesting development in Albania with people protesting about a luxury holiday development linked to Jared Kushner on protected land. Apparently, this is also an outlet for anger over the corruption in the country.
I’ve always been fascinated by Albania. My uncle visited the country in the 1980’s when it still was very closed. I feel the country is very misunderstood. The 1912 chart isn’t, strangely, unlike Finland’s 1917. But they have Saturn 0′ Gemini oppose Mars on Scorpio side that’s activated right now.
Britney Spears is still dominant in pop media. Can you look into her?
There is a lot of musicians from her time in the USA born near the same year. Pop, r&b, hip hop, and rap and it feels like they will all fade out together.

Can you please read Jennifer Lopez? What is coming up for her as her transgender twins graduate HS…
Just wondering about the potential for a summer of civil unrest in the UK? The outer planets have moved into Fire and Air signs which could suggest a combustible, volatile, fast moving energy. And it is the year of the Fire Horse which is has a similar feel. Recently it was suggested on this forum that people are finding the overall energy lighter and more positive. I don’t feel the same as the planets may have changed signs but the problems still remain. There is a sense of free floating anger and a powerful sense of injustice in working class communities, which Farage is inflaming (he has a fire sign emphasis), hence the scenes in Southampton last night. The UK has been through austerity and Brexit, both of which have impoverished the country and now there is a feeling of unfairness and rage about how hard life is. That is being cynically exploited by right wing politicians. (I am always surprised by the amount of support Reform / Tommy Robinson type characters get but it is there, and in light of recent events maybe even more so). The political left is muzzled and in disarray. I notice there is a Mars Uranus conjunction coming up in Gemini. Perhaps things are going to get worse before they get better…
There’s a lot of planetary change crystallising in the next month or so – Chiron into Taurus, Jupiter into Leo.
One commentator in the papers pointed out that what rightwing parties give their supporters is hope. That’s why people voted for Boris because he promised to get Brexit done thereby ending the four years of turmoil which had been overshadowing everything. But it’s not just about being rightwing; it’s why people voted for Tony Blair in the mid 90s – he gave them tangible hope after eighteen years of Conservative rule.
Two years ago, there was great hope that the Starmer landslide government would change things for the better. It hasn’t and he immediately undermined the optimism by going on about how awful our ex’s (the Conservatives) had been so we were all just going to have to be suck it up. His lack of emotion and personality doesn’t inspire any feeling.
Assuming Burnham wins the Makerfield by-election on June 18th then it seems inevitable that Starmer will then be ousted as PM in a leadership contest. Whoever becomes PM may find a kickstart from the fire and air transits – planetary positions which are naturally good at providing hope through new ideas and action.
I am not sure Burnham will win. The atmosphere feels too inflamed, fast moving and uncontrollable. Farage is in his element. Yes, Burnham has moved to the left somewhat but he still comes across someone who hedges his bets. The problem is there are a large number of silent voters who support Reform and I think recent events will add to that. It’s as if we still need to lance the boil that has been festering away, before things begin to improve. Fire and Air could suggest fervour, action, even rage spreading through communities at a great pace.
I can’t recall if Marjorie has looked at the UK Police or if such a thing is possible. Trust across institutions broke down with Pluto in Capricorn. Through my eyes “low” level crime appears to have flourished, mostly unchecked. Driving without insurance (and license often), dodgy shop fronts, shoplifting, drugs and the problems they bring, lots of anti-social stuff. Breeds discontent and a feeling that it’s all going to the dogs. The little town I live in was 20k, now nearer 30, 4 miles from a city with significant poverty levels and crime problems. We have no police presence and it irks people. However community led initiatives on all kinds of things are positive. It would be nice too hear some new ideas in how to tackle these wider problems (with the new planetary energy), but I don’t see any of the planetary influences as stabilising.
Well lightness last for a short while and then it ended. I am not waiting for saturn transit to conjunct my sun. Then it will move out and then it will retrograde in and out and the final pass somewhere in 2028 I think. Dreary I think. And after it transit my sun, I have Mars, Mercury, Venus all lining up down the years. It seems even more dreary. Oh well.
Hi Marjorie, could you look at next year’s French Presidential elections and the possible candidates please?
Thanks
It’s been five years since the shocking accusation that the remains of 215 students had been discovered on the site of the Kamloops Indian Residential School.
The RCMP opened a file and stated they were investigating to offer assistance if needed.
$216 million spent from a $320 million federal fund supporting searches for unmarked graves at former Indian residential schools, noting that as of 2025-2026, no human remains have been exhumed or confirmed at Kamloops or anywhere else.
Apologies in advance for lack of astrology, would love to see something about the Astro for the Butterbox babies – will try to find some dates for such.
I am an immigrant to Canada, I spent years of childhood in Saskatchewan; witnessed first hand the treatment of my indigenous friend by the teacher.
I was told by the teacher to help my friend “scrub” the “dirt” off her face, was handed a bar of soap and rough flannel, and sent to the washroom with my friend.
We were six, both of us peered in the mirror trying to find said “dirt” and burst into giggles when neither of us could identify such; we wet the cloth and, cleverly, rubbed some soap on it – I remember this as plain as day…
I have no doubt about the residential school graves, nor about the “Ideal Maternity Home” unmarked graves of Butterbox Babies in Nova Scotia.
I also have no doubt that money goes unaccounted, however, that is unrelated to “just one” government – and relates to far more than graves; please look at the Canadian Cricket Association for much greater misappropriation of funds.
Kind regards
Please provide some references for the $ amounts stated, the reports I have read state far less, but definitely open to reading your sources. Thank you
Subject to Marjorie’s permission, I’ll enclose a link.
Failing that, merely type “Ottawa pledges $320 million to search for residential school graves” into any search engine.
I’ve always been a Snow Patrol fan and they’re about to release a 20th anniversary edition of their most successful album. Their singer Gary Lightbody is also turning 50 this month. I find him intriguing as he’s a bit like Taylor Swift – always singing about unsuccessful love, long lost love etc. He says he hasn’t been in a relationship for years and seems to have abstained from love altogether since getting sober 10 years ago.
Marjorie – Please could you take a look at the chart of Erin Brockovich (of the eponymous film). She has turned her attention to the proliferation of AI data centres in the States and all of their attendant problems. She has opened up a website to the public to register their concerns and map actual and potential locations (currently 33 proposed / 53 under construction or approved / 34 proposed and 3674 community reported across the states). Wiki gives birthday as 22 June 1960.
Many thanks.
Yes please. I would be very interested too.
Correction: That’s 33 approved – duh!
Chris Brennan on The Astrology Podcast has been discussing the recent registration by someone in France for a trademark on the term ‘astrocartography’, to extend across the EU. I find this interesting and a little random, I wonder if we will see more of this type of thing. It sort of fits with trying to restrict social media access and potential future efforts to clamp down on AI.
I just watched the most incredible video, a friend told me about it or I would have never known otherwise.
They are a family garage band. I believe they are from the Philippines, but I know nothing about them.
I will not link them here, but please consider taking a look at them. They are a real interesting load of talent.

I just keep thinking that they are Pluto in Aquarius and Uranus in Gemini, personified.
A new film about the surrealist artist, Leonora Carrington, ‘Leonora in the Morning Light’ is about to be released in the UK. Simultaneously, her work is being shown at the Freud Museum and another exhibition at the Musée du Luxembourg in Paris. She was an interesting artist, inspired by mythology and lived a tumultuous life. The Smithsonian Magazine says:
“She sought to capture fleeting scenes of the subconscious where real memories and imagined visions mingle,” Tessa Solomon wrote for Art in America in 2021. “In Carrington’s rich universe, ethereal beings enact rituals with unknown purposes; these creatures have characteristics of women and animals, and seem to be somewhere between humans and beasts. There’s a soft glow and sensuality to her paintings, and some critics have said that this emphasizes Carrington’s femininity, not as a crutch but as a gift.”
She was born, 6 April 1917
Clayton-le-Woods, Chorley, Lancashire, England.
Yes please. Seeing the film Sunday so astro back up would be great. Films on artists are becoming a lot more interesting in complementing the artist and not just a plod through the obvious.
Can you talk about mid point two chart integration? What is the analysis approach ? How is it changing over time ? Influenced by transitions? Thanks ( personally I had disputes with my sister and trying to understand it astrologically )
The relationship chart is calculated from the midpoints of each of the individual’s planets – Sun to Sun etc. That gives the essential nature of the relationship. Then transits to the composite chart positions indicate what is likely to flare up or be highlighted and when.
Thank you !
Hi Marjorie,
Two possible low contention topics for you to look at.
Italy is about to celebrate 80 years of becoming a Republic, with the referendum on it passing on 2nd June 1946. It’s not quite a Uranus Return but getting there.
Giorgio Meloni looks like she will some become the longest serving Prime Minister of the Italian Republic as well. How are her stars and those of the Italian president looking?
On a different topic, I was reading up on Maria Louise, second wife of Napoleon I Bonaparte. After Napoleon’s death, she went on to marry morganatically twice more.
The thing that struck me was that in all three of her marriages, she was the second wife to each of her three husbands. That is a fascinating pattern. Ate there any planetary aspects that would point to such a pattern in a marriage?
Marjorie, would you be able to look at the charts for Jeff Bezos and Blue Origin as they relate to the explosion on May 28th. My family and I live near Kennedy Space Center, and this event is going to impact our area very directly, but I am interested in how it will play out over the next 12 months with Bezos as well. The explosion has been very under reported, in my opinion, in mainstream news, but will have enormous ramifications for the space program, as well as the lives of people working launch services with Blue Origin.
Would also love some insight on the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), apparently a Genz Z type revolt in India, which is challenging Modis government.

Britney Spears is still dominant in pop media. Can you look into her?
There is a lot of musicians from her time in the USA born near the same year. Pop, r&b, hip hop, and rap and it feels like they will all fade out together.
