Great Reads!

I’ve been quieter than usual this summer as I recover from my father’s death. Grief is an odd thing I’ve discovered and just when I think I’m getting better, I get my ass kicked. But now it’s back to school time, I’m pushing myself to be productive. I need to be distracted. Fortunately for me, I’ve been able to dive into some great reads. Quick Commercial Break! How could even think about starting the school year without knowing where Jupiter is this year? Here’s a quick guide to help you understand your child’s or your classroom’s learning style.

ISAR: Another fab review for “Mirror Mirror”

Getting a new book out there is so exciting. And a lovely review just stokes those fires of happiness. This review comes from Victoria Smoot who is the editor of the ISAR Journal.

Cover of "Mirror Mirror: The Astrology of Famous People and the Actors Who Portayed Them" by Alex Trenoweth, a book exploring astrology through film and celebrity case studies, foreword by Julia Parker

My first book, “Growing Pains” explored the Jupiter and Saturn cycles and how they relate to child development and education. “Mirror Mirror” explored synastry and transits of famous people, the actors that portrayed them and what was happening astrologically that […]

Mirror Mirror: Lawrence of Arabia

“Lawrence of Arabia” holds a special place in my heart. Not only does it feaure the divine Peter O’Toole but it is a fascinating study of the history of cinematography.

Sometime that night, I heard a muted thump and that was when […]

Bounced: The true story of how an astrologer took down a skeptic

I was just putting a few finishing touches on a column I”ve been working on for the Organization for Professional Astrology when I remembered this CLASSIC take down of Matthew Syed. I don’t know where Syed is these days but I don’t care if his careless Moon in Sagittarius objects to being ridiculed by an astrologer. I said I’d lay off him but. . .he SO deserves this! Quick Commercial Break! Before we go any further, please follow me on social media. I’m active on Facebook (@growingpainsadolescence), Twitter, youtube and Linkedin (@alextrenoweth) and Instagram (@astrology.conference.ace). If you’d like to have […]
