Virgo Child and Overthinking

When my Virgo daughter was 11, she sent me a link through email to a Wikipedia psychology article about some sort of personality disorder, the name of which escapes me now, with the words, “I think I have this”.

Venus and Mars move into Aries

Straightforward or “me first” approaches in our love lives haven’t really been working for us recently. Venus retrograde in Aries might have brought this to our attention.

Mars transiting the 12th house

Mars has been transiting my twelfth house for the last while, and I have found myself in desperate need of sleep even when I’ve had my full 8 hours. Any chance I get to take a nap, I take it, and only an alarm will awaken me. Sleep beyond what is necessary for refreshment, for [...]

Shared Birthdays

I found a really interesting article about famous people who share not only a birth day but also a birth year. The article is called 10 Uncanny Sets of Birth Twins. Of course, it’s the birth time that makes a whole lot of difference, but the author of this article shows us that there are [...]

Venus in Leo and Sign Compatibility

A few days ago, I thought to myself, “If only people would put as much effort into keeping a relationship alive as they do starting a new one…” As is typical with my thinking patterns, I subsequently related this thought to my Venus sign, which is Leo.
The statement does sound like Venus in Fire (Leo [...]
