BACK TO SCHOOL

The next few months are shaping up to be some of the most exciting of my career, and I thought I’d share a glimpse of what’s coming. The Rohini Academy of Astrology has taken a significant step forward with three new ways to study. Working with Astrology Hub! It’s been a great pleasure, after the Shifts Happen event last month, to be working with The Astrology Hub! Huzzah! Watch out for my New Moon in Gemini and Full Moon in Capricorn forecasts as well as my masters’ class on Wombmates and Wordmakers for the Inner Circle. Fancy a Bit of […]

Shift Happens Too came at a remarkable point in my life. I had just been teaching full-time in a challenging Year 5 class, managing home chaos after redecorating my corridor, and trying to keep my own life from spilling into complete disorder. Then, almost straight from the classroom, I headed into one of the most unusual and rewarding astrology events I have ever been part of. That’s right: From Classroom Chaos to Conference Magic. When my agency first rang me, I was warned that this would be a difficult class. My heart dropped a little. In teaching, you learn that […]

Saturn Return, New Book, and a Productive Week My Saturn return has shaped a remarkable period of productivity, from the growing success of Rohini Academy of Astrology (with a surge of astrologers understanding how important safeguarding and child protection in our profession), finishing my new book Bending the Light to being commissioned once again to write for the Australian magazine WellBeing. This will be my fourth article for a publication that you can pick up off supermarket shelves, and I don’t mind saying that being asked back means a great deal. There is something deeply satisfying about returning on the […]

My latest Astro.com astrology article, Under the Gaze of the Gorgon: Awakening at 9 Degrees Gemini, was published today, marking the latest step in a writing journey that began when I was twelve years old and first realised I wanted to write.  What makes this article different from others I have written for the site is that I totally bypassed the astrology magazines and submitted directly to the Astrodienst editors. It was accepted immediately. That’s one for the books. As it were. I posted about this on Facebook and Lynn Bell, one of the astrologers I most admire (I chose her […]

A full Jupiter cycle as a supply teacher — and the problem with easy narratives Supply teaching — substitute teaching — is one of the most misunderstood roles in education. The stigma of supply teaching persists, with substitute teachers often portrayed as temporary stand-ins rather than experienced professionals. Yet the challenges of supply teaching include safeguarding responsibility, behaviour management without context, and teaching across the curriculum at speed. After a full Jupiter cycle working as a supply teacher, I believe it is time to speak plainly about the respect this role deserves. Much of what I share — both here […]

Rohini Academy of Astrology is now offering a dedicated Australian live astrology course, beginning 14 March. This live intake allows students across Australia to attend classes in real time at 10:00 a.m. UK time (evening hours in Australian time zones), rather than studying solely by recording. Over the past year, students from Western Australia and beyond have joined Rohini Academy through recorded sessions due to time differences. With growing demand for live participation, this Australian intake creates a structured, evening-friendly option designed specifically for Australian students. All live sessions take place at 10:00 a.m. UK time (GMT/BST). Because both the […]

Astrology and dream interpretation often intersect most powerfully during major transits like the Saturn–Neptune conjunction 2026 and I have been inundated with requests for dreamwork (you can check out my services here). Last night I had a vivid dream about dancing in a competition — something I would never do in real life — and the symbolism unfolded beautifully against the current astrological climate. This is a perfect example of how dream symbolism in astrology can illuminate identity, vulnerability and self-worth.especially when layered with a Jupiter return in the second house and a Moon–Chiron conjunction in Aries In the dream, […]

Saturn–Neptune conjunction 1989, long-term astrology cycles, and life-changing decisions may sound like abstract concepts, but for me this 36-year Saturn–Neptune cycle coincided exactly with my decision to move to London just as I was finishing university. What astrologers describe as the meeting of vision (Neptune) and commitment (Saturn) was not theoretical in my case — it was the moment an impossible dream became a practical plan, setting the course for the next three decades of my life There are certain moments in life that don’t look dramatic at the time. No trumpets. No grand announcements. Just a quiet shift — […]

Professional astrology training for working with children’s charts requires safeguarding knowledge, ethical practice, and real world experience–and this is exactly what modern astrology must grow into. There are moments in a career where multiple threads — professional, personal and symbolic — seem to weave together all at once. Over the past few weeks, I’ve felt very aware that I am standing in one of those moments. Astrology is changing. Not in theory, but in visibility. It is moving further into mainstream conversation, appearing in places it simply wasn’t a decade ago. Recently, I was quoted in Apple News discussing Saturn […]
