European Spa, a very well respected spa and hotel industry publication. They recently celebrated their 100th Edition and I’m very grateful to have been included in an article able the increase in demand for Astrology and Spiritual Practices in Hotel Wellness and Retreats.

Now in July we have another rare line up of planets making an aspect pattern we call a bucket. It’s actually called the Barbault Basket, so let’s introduce astrology Andre Barbault who it’s named after and understand why.

Astrology becomes such a powerful tool, because it shows us in real terms that the timing of our lives was never meant to look the same. Everyone has different transits and our transits are set from birth. We still of course have free will over how we respond to said transits (I mean just look at twins! the chart is potentials not all fixed fate at all!). But there are some twists and turns in life that we didn’t necessarily plan and sometimes that can relate to our transits.

During 2026 to 2028 we’ll experience a series of trines between Uranus and Pluto which is a part of a long time planetary cycle that started in the mid 60’s when these two outer planets were conjunct. I’m so excited for this. Trines are typically where there’s generally an easeful flow between the two planetary archetypes. Plus the electric energy of the 60’s brought around such powerful revolutionary change from human rights, women’s rights to the psychedelic and sexual revolution. So let’s do a deep dive into dates, the energies of Pluto and Uranus, the zodiac signs they’re in now, and the backdrop of the other current astrology.

As we shift further in the Age of Aquarius and the Jupiter/Saturn Conjunctions being in Air signs the next 200 years I think all kinds of travel through AIR are going to skyrocket (literally!!), meaning being able to change location will be easier than ever before.

I think this is why the Astro-Carto-Graphy (ACG) boom is so big and will only get bigger. Not only is travel easier BUT often we have so much more choice. Do I go here or do I go there…. so more of us are turning to astrology for guidance.

What does Chiron shifting from Aires to Taurus mean? What are the key dates for you to know, and what does this mean for you.

Lucky for some, but maybe not everyone? Let’s explore the astrology of Jupiter conjunct Venus on 9th June 2026.

There is something very human about wanting to know our purpose, that we’re on the right path and even just why we are here. I heard a Dolores Cannon video on why we “forget our mission and goals” when we come to earth. I mean wouldn’t that be so great if we remembered what the things were that we wanted to achieve and complete in this life time.

This starts with learning HOW to cast your birth chart. I’m going to share here how to cast your chart step by step AND share the things that I look at first after I’ve cast a chart (which may surprise you!).

Womens Health UK recently featured a piece of The Rise of Astrology and featured quotes from Belinda Matwali on how she uses Astrology as a personal development tool rather than fortune telling.

I recently sat down with Mannah from the Therapeutic Astrology Podcast by Mannah (TAP).

This podcast is place to learn og and feel into healing methods, psychological insights and the mystery pointed to by forgotten languages of the soul. Mannah aims to inspire you to a rich life on all levels of experience. As you listen, let the existential questions breathe into your inner realms where Wholeness is always present.

I’ve been reflecting on how astrology is evolving and how it’s slowly but surely becoming a part of the cultural (dare I say mainstream) fabric of life, after being relegated as ‘woo woo’ for a few hundred years. I mean Astrology is thousands of years old, it’s a language unto itself, and it’s always created meaning and bridged between the mystical spiritual realm and our day to day lives on earth.

In this article, I share my approach to astrology, which I call Spiritual Nutrition Astrology. It weaves together astrology, meditation, and trauma-informed psychology as a way to support self-reflection, self-agency, and meaningful engagement with life’s transitions, without giving power away to a chart.
