Looking at the world with an astrological eye
I write a monthly post based on planetary or zodiacal principles. These are the ones tagged ‘The monthly planet’. Using my astrological eyes and ears, I try to make sense of the world. This blog also contains my thoughts and rants on random topics and these are tagged ‘Not the monthly planet’. They are usually my comments on news items. …
Virgo 2023 Back in 2017, I wrote a post about the then upcoming NZ elections. At that time Jacindamania had taken hold, as Jacinda Ardern had just been elected as leader of the Labour Party.

Apart from an attack of the ‘Can’t be bothered, it’s too hot’ syndrome, the main reason for the delay, is that I went down a …
Taurus 2023 He’s waited all his life for this moment and despite many astrologers saying he would never be king, he is! It’s Taurus time and he is following on from his mother – a Taurus.
