ebook launch: Scorpio Rising
As some of you know, aside from my âpublicâ role as a Vedic astrologer, Iâve been a writer for many years.

Will & Kate look great!
Thirty years ago, I appeared as a guest astrologer on Montrealâs CBC-Radio to field questions from listeners and offer some predictions about current events of the day, one of them the forthcoming marriage of Charles, Prince of Wales, to Lady Diana Spencer.

Palmistry and the Planets
âAbout astrology and palmistry: they are good because they make people vivid and full of possibilities. They are communism at its best. Everybody has a birthday and almost everybody has a palm.â ~ Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. In the western world, if you tell people youâre an astrologer, theyâll say, âCan you guess my sun sign?â In […]

Naomi Campbell: Model Behavior?
Earlier this month, super-model Naomi Campbell was again involved in an attack on an employee when she allegedly slapped and punched her limo driver, one more in a series of over-the-top demonstrations of her temper, which Campbell blames on her “lingering resentment toward her father who abandoned her as a child.” Yikes! With super-models like this, […]
Charlie Sheen: Two and a Half Demons
Charlie Sheen checked himself into rehab last week, bringing a suitcase of personal effects, a pair of monkeys on his back and apparently a lot of unresolved issues.

Tiger, Tiger, blushing bright in the media spotlig...
When Tiger Woods ran over a fire hydrant with his Escalade 10 days ago, it quickly became clear that he had lost control of more than his vehicle.
