This week we are learning about how to read for friends (or yourself) and what's important in a reading. The things to take into consideration are: is the present problem something natal or to do with a transit? We are using an Indigo Person's chart. More info on Indigos is here http://www.maryenglish.com/old/indigo1.htm  

An interesting way to find out the meaning of a significant dream is to record the time it happened and make a chart. Linda Reid talks about how to do this in her book Crossing the Threshold, The Astrology of Dreaming https://bit.ly/2CajP3V Nice Sleep Track here http://www.maryenglish.com/old/Sound%20Sleep.mp3 DO get in touch if you'd like me to use your Sleep Chart in a future episode maryATmaryenglishDOTcom Sign-up for my monthly Newsletter here http://eepurl.com/bCSDz

This week I'm talking about a news item about the sea. A thing called Red Tide is happening in Florida Here's the video I saw yesterday https://www.facebook.com/DMLdaily/videos/2146192858726554/ Most other news coverage is a little less urgent. Maybe the present planet's positions explain this a bit more? You can follow me on Twitter @maryenglish Or Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/maryenglish.author/

Astronomy is a much needed necessity to make accurate charts. However, with computer programmes making this easier it does mean we are not learning about the real planet's actual movements. This is the app I mentioned that will help you spot planets (and some stars) https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/astrolabe-clock/id421777015?mt=8 This is a good video from the British Museum showing a real ancient Astrolabe https://youtu.be/N8oWGwcdFmA Here is Jeff Mayo's book The Astrologer's Astronomical Handbook https://amzn.to/2nOl9PX

This week I am talking about Event Charts. Making a chart for a forthcoming event, or one that might have already happened. These can be used for weddings, interviews, starting a project, maybe creating something or dates in the future. In the creation of Tempesta Chart, we have Virgo Ascendant, Sun Taurus in the 9th, Moon in Leo in the 11th and Mars in Libra in the first....great chart as it turned out! Info on how the proving took place and what happened: http://homeopathicpacifist.blogspot.com/2018/07/the-homeopathic-proving-of-tempesta.html

This week we are looking a little deeper at Mercury Retrograde. Here's the book I mention A New Look at Mercury Retrograde by Robert Wilkinson. Here is Robert's website http://www.aquariuspapers.com/ (looks interesting!) Lots of (helpful) info from Donna Cunningham about Mercury Retro https://skywriter.wordpress.com/2016/01/05/how-to-manage-mercury-retrograde/ If you're interested here's Wyatt Earp's chart!  

This week we are discussing K's chart. She wrote to me to share her chart which is below. Remember when you make a chart to keep it as clean and easy-to-read as possible. Avoid adding oodles of planets and asteroids, it only confuses understanding your 'self' and your chart. xx More info on Bach remedies https://www.bachcentre.com/centre/remedies.htm Sign-UP for my Monthly Astro Newsletter here so you get your Astro Stars every month http://eepurl.com/bCSDz My Stop Self-Hate Hypno Track  http://www.maryenglish.com/Hypno/Stop%20Self%20hate.mp3

Does it mean something for you? Where does your own name end up? Have fun!

Hiya, this week we are doing some Astronomy #sadface Bear with me on this one, it will make sense at some point and you don't actually have to understand this to make a chart....

Celia S time of birth 00.01am in Northern England UK, Taurus MC   compare to Tracy Marks time of birth 12.36pm Miami Beach, Florida USA, Libra MC   and Queen Elizabeth time of birth 2.40am London UK, Scorpio MC
