Here is another sneak preview of my forthcoming book, Astro Magic, due to be published in the summer of 2022. Once upon a time, every society had their Moon Goddess, or mythical Earth Mother. In Greek Myth, the original Mother Nature was Gaia, whose name means “land” or “earth”: she was simply the personification of […]
Is this the best Astrology book ever? A review of Liz Greene’s ‘Relating’
Life is often unfair and unjust – it seems that – at the time of writing – Liz Greene’s Relating, the astrology classic from 1977, is only available second hand (on Amazon) or at some exorbitant price. This is a downright tragedy for Western civilisation, since Liz Greene’s Relating: An Astrological Guide to Living with […]

Strawberry Fields Forever – Is This The Best Song Ever?
Is ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’ the best ever pop song? I remember once having a free pull-out poster with one of the rock newspapers in about 1976 (either the NME or Sounds) listing the best 100 singles of all time. The usual suspects were all there – ‘A Whiter Shade of Pale’, ‘Jumping Jack Flash’, ‘Good […]
Inside Jack Nicholson’s Birth Chart – the Man Behind the Mask
Let’s look at Jack Nicholson’s birth chart. The first thing to note is that, essentially, he’s a paradox. One wouldn’t normally think so given the image of the Hollywood Hellraiser; the imposing, self-promoting Romeo with the wicked grin, indistinguishable from his Batman Joker. It is but a smokescreen, not that he hasn’t enjoyed being the […]
Mick Jagger’s Horoscope: Love, Fame and the Pursuit of Eternal Youth
Let’s take an in-depth look at Mick Jagger’s Horoscope – what makes him really tick? In Philip Norman’s excellent Jagger biography, the author cites decades of adulation as a rock god to account for what he called Eternal Teenager syndrome, which entails inhabiting a parallel universe where human mortality itself can be be bypassed. ‘The […]
Keith Richards’ Horoscope – What is He Really Like?
What is Keith Richards’ Horoscope like? Is the so-called Human Riff, the Most Elegantly Wasted Human Being Ever, a Rebel or a Reactionary? The typical Rebel is described as ‘bohemian’, ‘insubordinate’, ‘lawless’, ‘unorthodox’, ‘unruly’, and he’s been all of these at various times. But what about the opposite, Reactionary? This is a conservative, a diehard, […]
Ringo Starr’s Horoscope – What Is He Really Like?
Whenever the Beatles’ personal characteristics are mentioned, Ringo always seems to get bottom billing – Ringo Starr’s Horoscope will tell us why. John is (typically) the aggressive intellectual; Paul the cute diplomat, whilst George is the ‘quiet one’ or the ‘mystic’. Commentators then run out of adjectives and pause, because Ringo is just … well […]
Real Magic vs The Law of Attraction – Rhonda Byrne’s Birth Chart
If you want to perform Real Magic (which starts with the correct attitude) then study this in-depth article by my guest blogger, the US astrologer/magician Bob Makransky: One of my pet peeves about New Agers is their naive reliance on grossly oversimplified homilies like the famous Law of Attraction (“Ask – Believe -Receive”) to get […]
