Do You Have a Cosmic Marriage?
One of the main reasons astrology remains popular is because of what it reveals about love, sex and relationships. Many clients consult an astrologer when they meet someone new or a relationship is in crisis.

Happy Solar Return to Adele
Happy Birthday and many Happy Returns if you’re a Taurean (born 20 April-20 May). The phrase “many Happy Returns” originates from the planets’ orbit through the 12 signs of the zodiac and, in the case of the Sun, it takes a year to return to the place it was when you were born. So your… Read more

Saturn return and Kate Middleton
When Kate Middleton (born January 9 1982) marries Prince William later this month, she will be 29.

Mercury, the planet of communication, is retrograde until Easter. This relatively common occurence gets a lot of bad press amongst astrologers: don’t travel; don’t sign anything; don’t make any major decisions; etc. etc. As far as I’m concerned, it’s not a reason to stop living and do nothing; life and the show must go on….
