Peace, luck and stardust for 2022

Happy festivities – I hope everyone has some fun despite the panic and confusion around. Stay safe and well.

  The Red Kite in mythology is sacred to Isis, the sky goddess of magic and wisdom, and integral to the quest for resurrection. In Shakespeare’s time they were as common as crows, scavenging round London for food and stealing clothes off washing lines. In the 20th Century they were on the edge of extinction until a reintroduction programme brought them back to rural skies in abundance.

  Above the fields beyond where I live now on the edge of Cambridgeshire, they swoop and soar in groups of a dozen or more. With a five foot wing span they are quite a sight.

  5. Merry Christmas, Marjorie, and thank you SO MUCH for providing invaluable insights, perspective, entertainment, comfort and even hope in our crazy world and times!

  6. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year Marjorie, and to everyone here. This site is such an interesting and often lovely place to come. So pleased I found it. I love those red kites, and sometimes see them here in north London too. Magical. And no, I am not the “Jane” who requested a look at G. Maxwell! I am the other Jane….Santa is now on his way. May 2022 bring some uplifting, joyful moments to us all.

  7. Very best wishes, Marjorie.

    Joyeux Noel et très bonne année.

    The red kite is an apt symbol for our times.

    Quebec’s official symbol is the white Arctic owl, a symbol of wisdom and benevolence. The city of Montreal has recently added the white pine to its flag, the symbol of peace of the neighboring indigenous nation (the Mohawks).

    May all these powerful signs help us safely through our time.

  8. Happy Christmas, Marjorie. Thank you for your amazing productivity- you are always there with great level headed insights, and (although I can’t really follow) enviable political awareness. Best wishes to you and all followers.

  11. Merry Christmas from Canada to both you, Marjorie, and your faithful readers! Catching glimpses of wildlife is one of the joys of living in a rural area as I do, and I appreciate you sharing your Red Kite sightings along with their mythology. You and your website are an inspiration to me. You cover an amazing breadth of topics so prolifically that I am in awe! All the best for 2022! PS It’s a white Christmas where I live and unseasonably cold even for us! Another Saturn-Uranus cold snap, I think!

  13. A Merry Christmas to you Marjorie and to all who comment with such interesting contributions and insights. Thank you for all your hard work and for enriching our astrological knowledge. Wishing you a happy 22!

  14. Red kites are amazingly beautiful birds. In Barnet, north London, we are lucky enough to spot a pair from time to time, soaring overhead. Often being mobbed by crows, unfortunateley.

  15. Wishing you all the very best, Marjorie, for 2022! Thank you for your incredible productivity! I have learnt so much astrology from your articles, hope to organise a personal reading next year.

    And thanks to the many readers here whose comments on the articles have been so insighful and wise. Learnt a great deal from these as well! Happy Christmas and good New Year!

  16. Fantastic picture – so beautiful.

    Last full year of Pluto in Capricorn coming up then change is coming in 2023. Who knows where that goes. As tough as recent times have been – savour, appreciate, and drink in the last of it. We may be pining for these years one day!!

    Merry Christmas to you, Marjorie. Very appreciative of your insights, wide range of topics and fast turnarounds on requests.

  17. Merry Christmas Marjorie – thanks for the insight this year.
    I appreciate the impertinence if the request but any chance of a birthday read for Ghislaine Maxwell’s 60th ? : )

    Jane
