With Saturn transiting Scorpio, many of us are meeting our shadow-sides. We see that we are not quite a nice or innocent as we believed. Recently I had a client contact me after stumbling onto a part of her personality that she found repulsive. She was glad to have someone to confide in. I told her that this happens to everyone, eventually. It's happened to me. I struggled when I was confronted with my shadow side. Here's what I wrote about that in my book, Heaven, I Mean Circle … [Read more...]

May 17, 2012 by
The solar eclipse in Mercury-ruled Gemini on Sunday marks the peak of this week where mental functions will be emphasized.Variety is a key concept for Gemini and we'll see plenty of that.

People want to be independent, but not alone and balancing this is the job of the day. Friday, the Moon joins the Sun, Mercury and … [Read more...]

ELSA P. – ‘Cardinal Grand Cross, Fantasy And Brains As An Aphrodisiac’
