The Astrological Journal, May/June 2020
In the May / June issue 2022 of The Astrological Journal I examine the astrology behind the outbreak of the Coronavirus and I give an astrological timeline on the key events and how they are reflected precisely with the symbolism of astrology, using the chart of Wuhan City.
The special role of Asteroid Hygeia on the astrological timing of the unfolding of the events is also explored. It turns out that Asteroid Hygeia is a sensitive and accurate astrological indicator that can be used to exactly time events relating to health issues, epidemics, medical breakthroughs, outbreaks, and sanitization.

“Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” - Sir Winston Churchill
In the July/August issue of The Astrological Journal I combine History and Astrology to explore the astrological factors of Hitler’s appearance on the scene of the early Weimar period. Eclipses, power degrees, partile aspects, all are culminating and form a case study for astrology.
Astrology is a great tool that can help us prepare for the future and understand the past, it helps us reveal the intricate ways of history and the cyclical moves that shape the events on our planet.
By studying Hitler’s rise to power, we must heed the lessons of history and to be alert, so we, as citizens, to never again allow such shadows to grow and Democracy to be threatened.
Predicting Arnold's Heart Surgery One Year Before It Happened!
My admiration for Mr. Schwarzenegger is so great that on June 2017, when I was having my final exam at Kepler College, on astrological predictions, I chose to study his natal chart that is publicly available on www.astro.com.
In my presentation I have suggested that a heart surgery was possible for Spring 2018, which came to be absolutely true!

HELLO IT'S ADELE
An astro-portrait of one of the world’s most successful singer-songwriters whose birth chart resonates with musicality
In the January/February issue of The Astrological Journal, I explore the melody in the astrological horoscope of Adele.
"Is there music in the horoscope? Is there a melody that if listened to with caution can reveal the potential for tremendous success? Can we find talent within the astrological patterns? Does it exist there in the aspects, transits and progressions? Is it definable in astrological terms?
"Jupiter, Pluto and Saturn all play a very important role in the manifestation of the natal chart’s “promise” contributing to Adele’s transformation, immense success and maturity as a person and a professional. The Saturn-Jupiter cycle is triggering her natal Jupiter opposition with Pluto, and the two planets movement is aligned with her fame, success and rewards."
David Bowie
the astrological portrait of Ziggy Stardust
A very interesting aspect is the Mars-Neptune square. Neptune is associated with illusions and addictions, everything that has a deceptive and ephemeral quality, it is the transcendental glow of glam-rock while it lasts. Mars is exalted but it is also placed within the “secret” 12th house, something that could hint to Bowie’s bi-sexual orientation.
“Ziggy Stardust represents the definitive rock star: sexually promiscuous and wild in drug intake, but with a message of peace and love. He thinks he is a messiah and in the end he is destroyed both by his own consumptions, and by the fans he inspires". This is a description so reflective of the taboo 8th house and the self-destruct and self-sacrificial 12thhouse themes that the square of the two planets brings together.

ROBERT DOWNEY JR - Lucky Iron Man or Clever Sherlock Holmes?
How to constructively integrate the see-saw pattern in your Chart
Robert Downey Junior is an excellent actor and a very clever guy who worked the contradictions in his natal chart, and matured his Jovian excesses. His rise to stardom, substance abuse, and his marvelous comeback, became a living example of what it means to have a see-saw chart and how we can integrate our conflicting sides and constructively embrace our contradictions.

Ingmar Bergman: Portrait of the Ultimate Artist
© by Andrew Ifandis - re-published at www.astro.com
The celebrated Swedish film and stage director/writer was one of the most influential auteurs of our age whose artistic explorations of death, illness, faith, betrayal and insanity reflected his own preoccupations. Yet this hyper-sensitive and volatile man also led a tempestuous love life and fathered many children while seeking seclusion. How is all this reflected in his nativity?

INGMAR BERGMAN - Portrait of the Ultimate Artist
In the July/August issue of The Astrological Journal, I shed light on the chart of the famous director and presents a comprehensive analysis of Ingmar Bergman’s natal chart.
"From an astrological point of view his chart is extremely interesting and showcases complex psychological themes and personality traits, which I support in my analysis with various bio or scholar references, having studied his life and career for many years.
In my delineation, I guide the reader to a gradual unfolding of his chart with astrological indications for his intuition, sensitivity, memory, attachment to childhood and other key personality characteristics."
The article concludes with a section of key transits, progressions and solar arcs for three key periods of Ingmar’s Bergman life (first script, first marriage and filming of Persona).
