Bending the Light Reviews!

Alex Trenoweth — Mon, 17 Aug 2026 20:02:36 +0000

Bending the Light: Early Reviews and the Road to Australia My new astrology book, Bending the Light: Saturn’s Lessons in Time, is heading to Australia for its official Australian launch in Sydney on 12 September 2026. Exploring Saturn, adolescence and the developmental journey from childhood into adulthood, Bending the Light draws on my decades of experience as both a teacher and astrologer. As I prepare to take the book to Australia, I’m delighted to share two wonderful early reviews from astrologers Marjorie Orr and Michael Bartlett. Marjorie Orr has written a wonderfully thoughtful review of Bending the Light, looking closely […]

The Adventure Begins

Alex Trenoweth — Sun, 02 Aug 2026 17:24:03 +0000

As I prepare for the Australian launch of Bending the Light and my Australia astrology tour, I’ve been spending a few precious weeks back in my home state of Michigan. Celebrating my “second 30th birthday” in Detroit with my university roommate Christine, visiting an old friend in Oscoda, and playing in a euchre tournament at beautiful Torch Lake have all reminded me how important it is to reconnect with family and friends before setting off on another adventure. Every journey has a beginning, and mine started with something I value above all else—time spent with family and friends. I’m currently […]

A New Chapter Begins: New Courses, New Book, New Continents

Alex Trenoweth — Wed, 17 Jun 2026 12:27:23 +0000

The next few months are shaping up to be some of the most exciting of my career, and I thought I’d share a glimpse of what’s coming. The Rohini Academy of Astrology has taken a significant step forward with three new ways to study. Working with Astrology Hub! It’s been a great pleasure, after the Shifts Happen event last month, to be working with The Astrology Hub! Huzzah! Watch out for my New Moon in Gemini and Full Moon in Capricorn forecasts as well as my masters’ class on Wombmates and Wordmakers for the Inner Circle. Fancy a Bit of […]

Shift Happens Too: From Classroom Chaos to Conference Magic

Alex Trenoweth — Fri, 05 Jun 2026 15:37:32 +0000

Shift Happens Too came at a remarkable point in my life. I had just been teaching full-time in a challenging Year 5 class, managing home chaos after redecorating my corridor, and trying to keep my own life from spilling into complete disorder. Then, almost straight from the classroom, I headed into one of the most unusual and rewarding astrology events I have ever been part of. That’s right: From Classroom Chaos to Conference Magic. When my agency first rang me, I was warned that this would be a difficult class. My heart dropped a little. In teaching, you learn that […]

Saturn, Success, and a Very Productive Week

Alex Trenoweth — Sun, 19 Apr 2026 10:13:09 +0000

Saturn Return, New Book, and a Productive Week My Saturn return has shaped a remarkable period of productivity, from the growing success of Rohini Academy of Astrology (with a surge of astrologers understanding how important safeguarding and child protection in our profession), finishing my new book Bending the Light to being commissioned once again to write for the Australian magazine WellBeing. This will be my fourth article for a publication that you can pick up off supermarket shelves, and I don’t mind saying that being asked back means a great deal. There is something deeply satisfying about returning on the […]

A Writer’s Journey

Alex Trenoweth — Wed, 25 Mar 2026 17:03:02 +0000

My latest Astro.com astrology article, Under the Gaze of the Gorgon: Awakening at 9 Degrees Gemini, was published today, marking the latest step in a writing journey that began when I was twelve years old and first realised I wanted to write. What makes this article different from others I have written for the site is that I totally bypassed the astrology magazines and submitted directly to the Astrodienst editors. It was accepted immediately. That’s one for the books. As it were. I posted about this on Facebook and Lynn Bell, one of the astrologers I most admire (I chose her […]

Astrology Classes, a Long Commute and 2 Weeks That Kicked My Ass

Alex Trenoweth — Sun, 22 Mar 2026 10:43:05 +0000

These last few weeks have been a whirlwind of supply teaching in London, running astrology classes through the Rohini Academy of Astrology, recovering from an Instagram hack, and preparing for upcoming events with astrologers such as Steve Judd. It has been one of those weeks where teaching experience in the UK, real-life logistics, and online work all collide at once — and somehow, everything still has to hold together. I’m Starving Here! I had been struggling to find consistent work as a supply teacher last term, which meant I had to lean more heavily on other sources of income. Eventually, […]

Pass the Mint Sauce

Alex Trenoweth — Tue, 03 Mar 2026 17:33:58 +0000

A full Jupiter cycle as a supply teacher — and the problem with easy narratives Supply teaching — substitute teaching — is one of the most misunderstood roles in education. The stigma of supply teaching persists, with substitute teachers often portrayed as temporary stand-ins rather than experienced professionals. Yet the challenges of supply teaching include safeguarding responsibility, behaviour management without context, and teaching across the curriculum at speed. After a full Jupiter cycle working as a supply teacher, I believe it is time to speak plainly about the respect this role deserves. Much of what I share — both here […]

Alex Trenoweth — Sun, 01 Mar 2026 13:11:05 +0000

Rohini Academy of Astrology is now offering a dedicated Australian live astrology course, beginning 14 March. This live intake allows students across Australia to attend classes in real time at 10:00 a.m. UK time (evening hours in Australian time zones), rather than studying solely by recording.

When Saturn Meets Neptune: Dreamwork

Alex Trenoweth — Sat, 21 Feb 2026 11:27:50 +0000

Astrology and dream interpretation often intersect most powerfully during major transits like the Saturn–Neptune conjunction 2026 and I have been inundated with requests for dreamwork (you can check out my services here). Last night I had a vivid dream about dancing in a competition — something I would never do in real life — and the symbolism unfolded beautifully against the current astrological climate. This is a perfect example of how dream symbolism in astrology can illuminate identity, vulnerability and self-worth.especially when layered with a Jupiter return in the second house and a Moon–Chiron conjunction in Aries In the dream, […]
