Leo I: The Victorious Beast
The traveller who arrives in this decan is in the dull heat of the trial, a territory where the question is no longer whether the worst can be endured but whether endurance itself can be sustained toward a destination with no visible end. What is being tested here is not courage in any dramatic sense…

The Lions Den: The South Node in Leo July 2026-March 2028
Modern astrology has tended to soften Leo into a symbol of confidence, creativity and personal expression. The older traditions paint a more demanding picture. They remind us that the lion is first and foremost a creature of appetite. He seeks dominion, territory and recognition. At his highest he becomes the courageous guardian, the ruler who…

Cancer III- The Protector
This is the territory of Cancer III, where the Moon inhabits her own sign, in her own face and finds no moderating influence, no planetary guest to introduce a foreign quality, only herself, distilled into the purest expression of what she has always been, the guardian of life at its most vulnerable, the force that…

Land may not be relied…

The Herald
There comes a moment in the long interior passage of sorrow when something stirs that has not stirred in what feels like an age of the world; when the voice, so long folded inward upon itself, so long turned away from the open air and the company of others and the bright demanding surface of…

Selling The Willows: Cases from the H-Files
Over the past five years, my client Lucy has often spoken of selling her two properties: The Cottage (a holiday rental that provides an income), and her home, The Willows, a substantial property with a garden where she has been very happy, but which also holds painful memories. With covid restrictions lifting and spring approaching,…

Pluto in Aquarius-The Essential Toolkit
“It’s a story of love, of hatred, and of the dreams that live in the shadow of the wind.” ― Carlos Ruiz Zafón
