 We all know about the flamboyance and generous drama of the Leo Sun. But what about when Leo is on your Midheaven, the career part of your chart? A Leo Midheaven would usually mean that you have a Scorpio Ascendant, and flamboyance is not normally a word we associate with Scorpio- and I mean that in the nicest possible way. When you have Leo on the cusp of the 10th house, the Sun rules your...

Help, I’m starting a new job and when I finished my interview someone brought a birthday cake in for the man who would be my boss. That means that he’s a Leo, doesn’t it? What should I know about him? Firstly, congratulations on your new job. Secondly, the Lion can be a great boss, all you need to know are a few tips. The Lion can roar when he needs to, but the one thing Leo Boss...

Does going to work sometimes feel like a prison sentence? There are things you can inject into your workday to make it far more appealing. Some Sun signs find that a sense of adventure in their work makes it that much more bearable, while others gain more satisfaction when there's a sense of vision in their daily tasks. Sagittarius and Pisces are the visionaries of the zodiac, since they share...

 I’m a writer. Writing is a creative activity. I play with it, I give birth to new projects, I take risks on it. This makes it a 5th house activity. I use it to express myself. I’m proud of my work, and I want recognition for my work. This makes it a solar or Leo activity. My hopes and dreams are tied up in it. It’s also a solitary activity- it comes from within me…it...

 So, I’m having coffee with a Scorpio friend. He’s been on a bit of a recruitment drive lately and is determined to build the perfect team. He wants the right people on the front counter, the right people behind the counter and the right people leading the team. But he’s a Scorpio Boss so he also wants some control over the situation as well. Well durrrrrr. ‘So,’...

 When we talk about the career houses in the birth chart, we are mostly referring to the 10th house, or the Midheaven. The planet ruling this house is the one that is your personal career planet. The sign on the cusp of the 10th tells us a lot about your career, the type of boss you respond well to, the types of conditions you like in the workplace and, to a certain extend, what you like to...

 Since I no longer go and work in a partition every day, I’m reinventing myself as a writer. Aside from pitching for articles (and a couple of other projects), I’m also writing two books- a chick lit manuscript and an Astro book. I’m a new writer, and have no contacts in the publishing industry so have no advances. In other words, I am writing in a sort of “build it...

 Once upon a time Ms Gemini went to work at LargeCorp. Open-minded, social and totally charming she stimulated the whole office with her quick wit, sharp tongue and her life of the party attitude. Her boss loved her ability to quickly grasp concepts, manage crises and sell coal to Newcastle. In her head was every little piece of information she had ever learned- all tiny seemingly...

 Leadership comes in many shapes, sizes and star signs. Leo, Aries, Scorpio and Capricorn are often slated as the most obvious signs for leadership material (or those signs on the cusp of the 10th house). As I say, these are the ones most written about. But here’s the rub: ·      Not every Aries, Leo, Scorpio or Capricorn will be leadership material...

 I had an amazing idea the other day. Seriously, this is nothing like the idea I had for putting electronic drum kits into steering wheels, or singstar through Bluetooth so that I could belt Sydney peak hour traffic frustration out of the system. No, this is a much better idea than that one. It started from a throw away comment I overheard around the pool. I’ve been in Bali for the last...
