Sagittarius 2023 Something that is not often emphasised in astrology, is that the zodiac has a sequence. After Aries comes Taurus, and then Gemini and so on.

Our turn to choose – Netherlands elections
Scorpio 2023 I’m not sure having run-ups to elections in Scorpio season is a good idea, knives are sharpened and the black and white attitude of Scorpio can be emphasised, leading to much polarisation.
