supermarket wine, you can be wowed! I was wowed by the smoothness, by the dark ripe blackberries transitioning into black cherry & blueberry, with oaky undertone and liquorice & pepper. Any wine that brings out the Wine Wheel and you identify the individual fruit, wood & spice is by me, well made. I finished the bottle 10 mins ago but still have the candid fruit longevity in my mouth. Cracking wine!

When it comes to whipping up a quick, mid-week meal, pasta is often the go-to choice - and this recipe doesn't skimp on flavour.

Phil Bianchi, food and flavour expert and founder of The Gift of Oil, suggests that you don't need an elaborate sauce for the perfect seasoning. In fact, he claims only two ingredients are necessary. He shared his three-ingredient pasta recipe, saying: "When it comes to making a spaghetti dish, you don't need a lot of ingredients to make it taste good.

"More often than not, by just combining simple flavours, such as the garlic and olive oil in this recipe, you'll be able to create a dish that's restaurant quality in the comfort of your home! The great thing about this simple recipe is that most people will have these ingredients in their homes, so it's a great meal to make if you're looking to save time and unsure of what to make for your evening meal."


Ingredients

Spaghetti
Olive oil
Garlic cloves (one per serving)



Method

The quantities can be adjusted depending on how many servings you need, using a measure of 75g dried spaghetti per person. If you're using fresh spaghetti, it's recommended to serve 120g of pasta per person, reports the Express.

This speedy meal takes just minutes to prepare from start to finish, so it's best to get the garlic ready before you start cooking the pasta. The fresh cloves can be peeled and diced into very small chunks, or grated for a smoother texture. Next, boil the pasta in hot salted water for 10 minutes until cooked, but slightly al-dente for an authentic restaurant-style meal.

In a different pan, warm up a good amount of olive oil before cautiously moving the pasta into it, letting some of the water in as well. You should only allow a few tablespoons of water, so be mindful not to pour too much liquid into the pan with oil. Next, toss in the garlic and mix the ingredients together to cover the spaghetti for a couple of minutes, then serve it hot straight from the cooker.

Phil suggested topping the straightforward dish with a splash of flavoured olive oil, butter or fresh parsley.

THE EXEMPLIFICATION OF CULTURAL EXCELLENCE

LIVING IN LUXURY; THE ACQUISITION OF WEALTH;

CLASS CONSCIOUSNESS is the awareness of a social class's shared interests and opposition to other classes. It also involves the belief that the class structure can be transformed to create a classless society.

This Full Moon creates a Grand Cross in Cardinal Signs. A Grand Cross is two oppositions and 4 Squares. The Opposition speaks of the binary nature of existence and demands that we deal face on with some aspect of our life or ourselves that needs to be rebalanced and changed in some way. A Square always demands action be taken, the authenticity of which is to be judged in how it manifests in the material world. With a Grand Cross, ruminating and recalibrating viewpoints is not enough. It must also and that it must show that it is so that an authentic materialization. The term ‘ Cross of Matter’ gives us more than a clue as to the nature of such a configuration.

The Cardinal Signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) are the great initiators of the zodiac. The challenge is to find the right idea, the right action and the right reason. Are we using the self centred will of the immature personality, or the higher Will to do Good as our motivating force? With cardinal signs in play, this question is worth asking.

The Full Moon is a stellium of Chiron in Aries 21 and Moon/Eris at Aries 24 opposite Sun/Juno Libra 24.

With the nodes moving through Aries and Libra and the last eclipse all focusing on ‘me’ versus ‘you and me’ this Full Moon gives me the sense that some of the lessons we have been learning are coming home to roost. It is a time of culmination. The story has been told and finally you get to understand, who did what when and why of it. Or at the very least, you may feel a lightening of your load. Or your loaded issues around your own empowerment and the ways in which you give it away or take it away from others.

If you didn’t get the memo that this is all about the balance of our relationships with others to our relationship with ourselves,

Further emphasis to this thematic is given by Juno cazimi (an exact conjunction) the Sun and Eris in exact conjunction with the Moon. The Sun is the heart of our chart and Juno speaks to what, and who, it is that really attracts us. Juno shows us where our experiences of Beauty and Truth are met in partnership. Eris is presently known in a number of guises, from Agent of Chaos to Spiritual Warrior. Whatever the good, bad and ugly of Eris she is definitely a force that brings the truth of any situation, or relationship, to light. Usually via a disruption of the status quo. So be prepared. If there is a Truth ready to be revealed, it will be.

Facilitating this sacred (if at times difficult) process we have another opposition of Pluto at the end of Capricorn opposing Mars in Cancer. This a clash of the Titans. If what one wants (or think you want) Mars, is at odds with the chthonic forces of Earth and Sky (Pluto) we may suffer the inevitability of being steam rolled into facing whatever it is that we have avoided for so long. Take heart that, in doing so, liberation into a great Light and a more loving heart is the reward that awakes.
