English Oaks

This is the third English Oak tree that has collapsed in 6 days. These oaks have been hard hit by the Polyphagous Shot Hole Borer (PSHB) beetle causing widespread devastation to trees by cultivating a lethal fungus (Fusarium euwallaceae) inside trees. The fungus blocks water-transporting vessels, causing canopy dieback, while the beetle’s tunnels cause structural failure and death, threatening millions of urban and native trees.

English Oaks are ruled by Saturn. Quite extraordinary description of the Saturn Neptune conjunction which will be exact tomorrow on 20 February 2026.

I am an astrologer practising traditional astrology in Cape Town. I specialise in birth chart readings. I am passionate about people’s stories and their life’s journey. It is very empowering for a client to understand and accept their life story. I am also fascinated by world events and the links to the planetary cycles. It is this notion of history repeating itself that fascinates me.
