As they say, it was love at first sight. Dark hair, huge brown eyes, long legs, tall, flat-chested and super, super bright. On my first day at Brentwood County High School, September 1970, in Form 3B, Karen was the girl I aspired to be. She was confident where I was painfully shy, with acne and braces on my snaggly teeth. Indeed, at the age of 11, I was already suffering from anorexia and hated my body. She was a great athlete and swimmer, while I always feigned a virulent verruca to avoid the changing rooms. Against all odds, we soon became inseparable: united by our love of horses and David Cassidy.

30 years ago, the first votes were cast in multiracial elections in South Africa. It was a dream that took too long to be realised, but it was a dream worth fighting for.  As dynamic Mars prepares to converge with dreamy Neptune before it moves into Aries (its celestial home), it's time to consider what we can do to make our world a better, more beautiful and welcoming place.  Fighting against the tide is challenging, but if we work together, and share our dreams, we can start to make it flow in the right direction.
