Dear Cindy,
It will change, not because the politicians are about to develop a conscience, but because ordinary people, all over the planet, are about to respond to some extraordinary astrological influences. There's not much sign of this yet, but within the next ten years, we'll see a distinct difference.

Dear Chie,
Think of your personality as a diamond. Under different lights, different facets will shine. At different longitudes and latitudes, you may seem more extrovert, powerful or romantic. I have noticed, for example, that I tend to feel slightly more extrovert when I am in America and (oddly for a land where people famously dress as they please) a little more clothes conscious in Australia. There are even some astrologers who specialise in studying this difference and can produce a detailed map for you, showing you exactly where you should travel to bring out a particular flavour in your character. But you will remain the same person in essence no matter where you go and you will still respond in exactly the same way to current cosmic alignments and influences.

Dear Clive,
Many factors help to shape our character. That's why, though astrologers can often give an impressive reading on the strength of a horoscope alone, we prefer to find out as much as possible about our clients before we give a definitive interpretation of their birth charts.
