Dear Dee,
There are exceptions to every rule - but, generally, the Moon and the Sun look more lemony when they are near the horizon. The Earth's atmosphere creates this effect. It is not usually so powerful when those heavenly lights rise higher in the sky. The Moon's �true colour� is grey or silver if you want to be poetic which, personally, I always do! This year's magical season of lunar standstills though, should bring us many lower, more golden moons.

Dear Rachel,
I don't think any of us really know how to trust... we just have to try - and when our circumstances get scary, we have to try even harder. When we lose trust, we lose everything. Once we find it again, it's amazing what then finds its way to us.

Some people are happily single. They really don't want a life partner or even a 'love interest' and they resent the implication that, if they haven't got one, there must be something wrong with them. Others are in stable, committed, long-term relationships which contain little by way of classic "romance". This, though, happens to perfectly suit both people. Then, there are the folk who don't get on especially well with their partners... yet who have good reasons for trying to "weather the storm" for a while. All these people get a bit of a raw deal at this time of year. It's not just the shops that are full of cards, hearts and flowers... the horoscope columns too, can be insensitively twee. In all my forecasts this week, I have tried to be conscious of this... and to emphasise the kind of love life that we can all attain and enjoy. The kind that comes to us when we make a conscious decision to start "loving life"!
