OK, so MJ has passed over... No obvious transits or progressions to his chart that suggest death, but I do note that all 2009 and especially in the last two months Neptune and Jupiter in the sky have opposed his Mercury, which in his chart rules career, work and public image.  I might suggest that toxicological reports will give the most reliable evidence as to his demise.  He's the astrological twin of Lenny Henry, so let's hope that he's OK......   Time for some self publicity - go here for a great interview with yours truly in a US ezine that regularly carries my stuff.  And I've already made my comments on Iran, but as soon as a political group starts shooting its own people, then they're doomed.  My best bet on the next Iranian revolution in early-mid September.  And I need some work in folks, lots of it.  All of a sudden I've got to pay to move home and also get major dental treatment done, so get your reading requests in now - enough from the same source comes with a substantial discount.....  And my mouth hurts, I had the mother of all hydraulic drills for two and a half hours and I'm still shaking.....  And then go - here, here (a bit suspect), here and here and just wonder at the true beauty of life....  And we'll talk astrology at the weekend.
