Some of her favourite areas of astrological interest are Childhood and Family Astrology, Medical Astrology, Chiron, the Black Moon Lilith, the Asteroids and of course, the big life questions: ‘Who am I, Why Am I Here and Am I Living My True Purpose and Soul Blueprint?
Babula also loves to explore the big picture themes related to humanity’s shift from the Kali Yuga into the New Age of Aquarius. Are we poised to fully awaken from sleep and become fully fledged members of the Galactic Community?

GALACTIC ASTROLOGY – TO INFINITY AND BEYOND (thanks to Buzz Lightyear)
Astrology beyond the Ecliptic – The Newest Horizon. While this includes asteroids, dwarf planets and fixed stars it will also look at the current events in astronomical exploration of the Universe.
GALACTIC ASTROLOGY the New Frontier to be discovered or is it re-discovered. Ancients always referenced worlds and ‘Gods’ beyond the earth, beyond our solar system. As any Trekkie would know:
“Space-the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. It’s five year mission is to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and civilizations and to boldly go where no man has gone before.”
We are now at a technological level of advancement that discovery of life and worlds beyond the edge of our Solar System is an imperative.
We will look at Kuiper Belt Objects, Fixed stars and more. Are you are you a star seed from Orion? Arcturus?
Pluto in Aquarius, Uranus in Gemini, Neptune in Aries-these planetary energies are propelling us into new dimensions. Science is moving fast with great speed.
Join me as I outline how we have always had access to knowledge of life beyond Earth (albeit hidden and occult) but now have the means to personally discover it and integrate these new energies into a new way of being.

Blood and Fire: Saturn and Neptune in Aries
In 1882, under a powerful conjunction of Saturn–Neptune conjunction, William Booth transformed The Salvation Army from a radical street ministry into an international movement, marching beneath the now-famous cry of Blood and Fire. But this was never simply a story about one organisation. Throughout history, Saturn and Neptune have coincided with moments when belief becomes organised, when dreams demand structure, and when faith, ideology, sacrifice, and collective vision reshape the world. Revolutions are born. Institutions crumble. New prophets emerge. As Saturn and Neptune meet once again—this time in fiery Aries—we stand at the beginning of another cycle of spiritual activism, ideological battles, and bold new identities. What happens when Saturn’s discipline meets Neptune’s vision in the sign of the warrior? Who will lead? What myths will inspire us? And what happens when belief becomes action? Join international astrologer Alex Trenoweth for a thought-provoking journey through the Saturn–Neptune conjunctions of history—and a provocative look at what this new cycle may ignite.
