12 August 2026 On 12 August 2026 we have a Solar Eclipse in Leo which will not be visible from New Zealand but will be visible in the Northern Hemisphere particularly Greenland and Iceland.  It is said that where an Eclipse is the most visible will be the area(s)...

30 July 2026 On 30 July 2025 NZT we have a Full Moon in Aquarius opposing the Sun in Leo. Full Moons, as we know, bring things to the surface and are often the fruition of what we sent our intentions on at the time of the New Moon, which this month was on 14 July in...

27 July – 10 December 2026 Saturn, our mighty teacher and disciplinarian, moves into Retrograde motion in Aries from 27 July until 10 December 2026.  Saturn will join Neptune already sitting in Retrograde in Aries bringing these 2 powerhouses of change into yet...

19 – 21 July 2026 I would like to share some information regarding the upcoming significant line-up of outer planets in our solar system at this time.  A special theory was developed by a very famous and technical astrologer called Andre Barbault who studied the...

10 July – 6 August 2026 Venus moved out of Leo and into Virgo on 10 July 2026 and will transit through Leo, joining Jupiter and the Sun here, until 6 August 2026. Venus in Virgo puts focus on and gives a lot of relevance to our personal values, ethics and needs. ...

24 July – 9 August 2026 Mercury moved into Cancer on 2 June 2026 and will not leave this sign of the zodiac until 9 August 2026.  This is an extremely long transit by Mercury as he usually takes just 3 – 4 weeks to move through a sign of the zodiac.  The...

Welcome to Cancer Season!  YAY it’s my birthday month and a whole new circle around the Sun for me!  We have now left the busyness and communicative energy of Gemini and moved into the compassionate and sensitive energy of Cancer. As the Sun enters Cancer...

We have just experienced approximately 12 months of Jupiter, the planet of growth and expansion, transiting through the sign of Cancer and now he will move into Leo to bring a whole different level of expansion and growth. While he was in Cancer we were being asked to...

30 June – 23 July 2026 Mercury returned to Cancer on 2 June 2026 and due to his Retrograde turn from 30 June until 23 July, will remain in this sign of the zodiac until 25 August 2026 – a very LONG transit for Mercury through Cancer, which in my opinion, is just what...

Mars is the planet of drive, determination, motivation and passion.  He is the mover and shaker of the zodiac that gets things going and brings action and intention to all that we do.  In many ways he can represent the male energy in our Charts and where we...

19 June 2026 – 15 April 2034 On 19 June 2026 Chiron, the wounded healer, makes the move out of Aries where he has been for the last 7 years and into the energy of Taurus. The planet Chiron carries the wound of rejection.  Chiron was born a Centaur in Greek...

Gemini Season is always a breath of fresh air after the intensities and practicalities of Taurus Season. Under the influence of Taurus, we work hard, focus on our security needs and often spend way too much time worrying about money.  And so, we are all in need...

Mercury moves out of solid and dependable Taurus and into its home sign of Gemini from 18 May until 1 June 2026 – a fairly quick transit and one that will most definitely speed everything up for us all. When a planet is in its home sign it has a lot more power and...

The New Moon in Taurus on 17 May 2026 serves as a grounding energy between the two Full Moons we are experiencing in May this year. The first Full Moon was on 2 May and fell in the deeply sensitive and intense energy of Scorpio.  This Full Moon was one of the...

7 MAY - 16 OCTOBER 2026 Pluto is the first planet to move into Retrograde motion since all the planets were Direct in mid-March this year.  This short break from Retrograde energy may feel like it you missed it this year as there has been so much else going on in...

21 April – 21 May 2026 We now step out of the busyness and action-packed energy of Aries and into the more solid, grounded and methodical energy of Taurus.  In Aries Season we focussed a lot on ourselves, our personal needs and desires and our...

Time to go Deep On 2 May 2026 we have an intense Full Moon in Scorpio.  Scorpio Full Moons can be the most powerful of all the Full Moons as they encourage us to go deep, reveal secrets and hidden emotions, embrace our shadow work and stand in our personal power....

Venus has been at home in Taurus since the 31st of March 2026 and while she has been sitting here, she has been encouraging us to look at our security needs, our values and our financial situations with the intention of improving all of these in some way.  There...

On 18 April the planet of structure, karma and discipline, Saturn, will form a conjunction with the planet of action, determination, volatility, Mars, and this will cause the sparks to fly both in our personal lives and on the global stage.  This powerful...

A New Way Forward Uranus is currently at 29 degrees of Taurus getting ready for his momentous shift into Gemini on 26 April 2026.  When a planet is at the final degrees of a sign it is particularly powerful, kind of like it knows it’s running out of time and this...

My Life Is My Responsibility On 17 April 2026 the Moon moves into Aries and joins the Sun, Neptune, Saturn, Mercury, Mars and Chiron already sitting here.  There are also at least 3 other planets also sitting in Aries at this time,  but they are not planets...

I don’t think there has ever been, well certainly not in the recent past, a more significant Aries Season than this one!  When the Sun enters Aries this year it will not only signify the start of a brand new astrological year, but it will also join the mighty...

We have a Full Moon in Libra on 2 April 2026 which brings in the importance of harmony and balance to our world.  This Full Moon will form an opposition to the current stellium of planets in Aries.  It will directly oppose the Sun, Saturn and Neptune all...

On 10 April Mars moves out of easy-going Pisces and into the very individual and independent sign of Aries.  Mars will join the Sun, Saturn, Chiron and Neptune already sitting in the fire sign of Aries.  Mars will join the “Great Reset” bringing action, passion,...

When Venus moves into Taurus she returns home and is therefore fully exalted and activated.  Venus rules our attitudes towards love, money and beauty and she also dictates our values and ethics.  Taurus is the sign of the zodiac most associated with money...

21 March – 15 April 2026 Mercury moves into Stationary motion on 16 April and will be back up to speed in Direct motion within around 5 days of this.  Mercury Retrograde in Pisces has not been easy – yes, we have had the usual technology hiccups, and...

On 19 March we have a New Moon in Pisces.  New Moons = new beginnings. However, this New Moon carries a slightly different energy.  Yes, there will always be opportunities for new ways forward and new opportunities around the New Moon time, but as this New...

FUELLING OUR HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS Mars moved out of rebellious Aquarius and into the more easy-going energy of Pisces from 3 March until 9 April 2026.  This will be a welcome relief for many who have found the change-driven energy of Mars in Aquarius a lot to...

26 February – 20 March 2026 Yes, its Mercury Retrograde time again!  Welcome to the first Mercury Retrograde period of 2026.  Every year we have 3 Mercury Retrograde periods, each of which lasts approximately 3 weeks.  These are ALWAYS our opportunity...

As we move out of Aquarius Season and all the freedom, innovation and revolution that it brought with us, we step into Pisces Season which usually means a softer, easier time for us all.  However, February and early March 2026 are so full of planetary activity...

Lunar Eclipses tend to represent “endings” in our lives and in the things going on around us as well.  Just like Solar Eclipses, that act like a spring board to propel us forward into new opportunities and new beginnings, Lunar Eclipses act as a spring board to...

On 17 February 2026 we have the first eclipse of 2026 and it will fall at 28 degrees of Aquarius.  As this is also a New Moon, and it is the first day of the Chinese New Year of the Fire Horse, AND, it falls just days before the mighty Neptune Saturn conjunction...

21 January – 18 February 2026 Welcome to Aquarius Season! Today we step out of the practical, serious and ambitious energy of Capricorn and into the alternative, unique and innovative energy of Aquarius and in many ways this is going to be one of the most important...

On 14 February 2026 Saturn will join Neptune in their dance through Aries.  This formidable partnership will last for 3 years, with the most powerful dates for this year being from 14 February until 22 February when they form a conjunction at 0 degrees. When planets...

THE POWER OF SELF-BELIEF Uranus moved into Gemini in July 2025 and spent just under 4 months in this sign (both Direct and Retrograde) before he retrograded all the way back into Taurus once again.  He will stay in Taurus until the last week in April 2026....

INNER ALIGNMENT AND INNOVATION Since November 2025 the inner planets, Mars, Venus and Mercury, have been dancing together in the same sign of the zodiac and joining the Sun there to expand upon our monthly primary focus.  This is something that is not unusual for...

22 December 2025 – 20 January 2026 Welcome to Capricorn Season! So, here we are at the end of 2025 and what a year it has been!! As we step into Capricorn Season and the Summer Solstice (here in the Southern Hemisphere) it is a time for reflection and contemplation...

2025 was the year of “authenticity”, a year when we all had to level up and let go in some way.  It was a year of aligning our inside world with our outside world – a year where it was essential that what you were putting out was aligned with who you truly are...

22 November – 21 December 2025 As we step out of the intensity of Scorpio Season and its exploration of our inner worlds, we are ready for a breath of fresh air.  But before we move on it is important that we pay attention to what came up for us during Scorpio...

23 October – 22 November 2025 We now step out of the light, social and relationship focus of Libra Season and into the more intense and in-depth energy of Scorpio Season. Scorpio Season is back to work season.  Under this influence it is time to get things done...

15 October 2025 – 6 May 2026 After a 5-month introspective Retrograde through  Aquarius Pluto is now moving into Direct motion for the next approximately 7 months. During the last 5 months we have all been encouraged to look at our inner worlds and where we think...

23 September – 23 October 2025 Libra Season could not be more different than Virgo Season.  For the last 28 days we have been feeling the encouragement to get more organised, to get things done behind the scenes and to try to get our proverbial ducks in a...

21/22 September 2025 On 21/22 September 2025 we have a South Node Partial Solar Eclipse at 29 degrees of Virgo.  This should be visible in New Zealand at around 8am on Monday 22 September 2025. Even though this is only a Partial Solar Eclipse it is particularly...

22 September – 4 November 2025 When Mars enters Scorpio, we can find a whole new side of ourselves opening up and it may not be entirely ideal! There is no more determined, motivated, intense and driven placement in astrology than  Mars in Scorpio.  Mars is...

23 August – 22 September 2025 On 23 August the Sun moves out of social, outgoing and proud Leo and into the refined, grounded and organised energy of Virgo. So, we are moving from fun times into focussed times.  Leo Season gave us a great opportunity to let our...

7 September 2025 On 7 September 2025 we have a total Lunar Eclipse in Pisces which will be fully visible from New Zealand. At the time of this Full Moon in Pisces we will also experience the dark night of the eclipse which will be potent and powerful in a very magical...

26 August - 19 September 2025 When Venus moves into Leo we all tend to get a little more concerned with our appearance, what we value personally and our need to share and expand upon this with the world around us. Leo is the energy of the extrovert, and Venus is the...

31 July 2025 – 2 January 2026 Chiron is the “wounded healer”; he is the planet that represents our greatest wound of rejection that we arrive in this lifetime already carrying.  It is a deep inner wound that may have been with us for many incarnations, and the...
