PISCES (Feb 19 - Mar 20)

I come to the main junction of Potts Point, Kings Cross and Darlinghurst. This walk wouldn't be complete without mentioning the CocaCola sign, which arrived in 1974 .

The new Coca -Cola sign created an unmistakable landmark, one that defined the area that quickly became known as ‘The Gateway to the Cross’.

It is the largest billboard in the Southern Hemisphere at 41 metres long and 13 metres high, the sign is comprised of two sides.

THE HANGED MAN is the Tarot Card. This card shows a man hanging upside down from a tree. It indicates enlightening and suggests you don't rush into any decision making. You should wait until things fall into place before making any decisions. You respond well to nature so make sure you spend time in our beautiful parks and beaches particularly if you live close to the city, as you don't like loud noises. You are a rtistic and need to take time for yourself and maybe start painting, sketching, creative writing. Give it a try and don't give up on your first attempt. It is important to give yourself time to nurture yourself and then all will go in the right direction.

ARIES (Mar 21 - Apr 19)

THE EMPEROR is the Tarot Card. This card shows The Emperor seated on a cubic throne giving the impression of worldly powers and leadership. You are very strong and sometimes stubborn. You are dedicated your plan and will not accept the suggestions of others.

Across the street is St Vincent's College which was founded as the Victoria St Roman Catholic School, by the Sisters of Charity in 1858, a year after the sisters established St Vincent's Hospital at the same site. The school reopened as St Vincent's College, a secondary, fee-paying, private, independent school in May 1882, after the hospital's relocation to the neighbouring suburb of Darlinghurst.

Opposite are The Butler Stairs.

The stairs were named for James Butler, an Irish draper and alderman on Sydney Council who lived and worked with his family at 106 William St and was instrumental in having them laid. These stairs connect Brougham St, Woolloomooloo to Potts Pt.

Further down Victoria St at No. 202, I come across Juanita Nielsen's House, it is one of a group of three terrace houses which were erected in the 1850s on the site of the former Telford Lodge estate. Purchased by Juanita Nielsen in 1968, a journalist and great-granddaughter of businessman Mark Foy, Nielsen disappeared after she strongly opposed the redevelopment of the Potts Point/King Cross area and the intimidation and eviction of working-class tenants of the area and the adjoining suburb of Woolloomooloo.

At the junction of Darlinghurst Rd and Victoria St is the Darlinghurst Fire Station which was designed in 1910 by Walter Liberty Vernon it was built in 1911 and opened in 1912. The Walter Liberty Vernondesigned station was designed with the comfort of the firefighters top of mind, with ‘seven separate residences for the married men’ and ‘a suite of rooms for the single men.’ At the time of its construction, the brick and stone station was lauded as ‘one of the finest fire stations’ and an ‘ornament to the district’, and in a testament to its designers and builders, it is still in operation today. Further up Victoria St is St John's Anglican Church which was completed in 1858, with nave and aisles designed by J. F. Hilly. Many later additions were designed by Edmund Blacket.

I complete my walk at St Vincent's Hospital established in 1857 by five Irish Sisters of Charity, who had migrated to Sydney in 1838 with a mission to help the poor and disadvantaged. Some of their early work included helping victims of the 1853 influenza outbreak and families of prisoners in the nearby Darlinghurst Gaol. They established a hospital that was free for all people but founded especially for the poor, on a non-sectarian basis.

You are very good on business levels but can sometimes be impulsive and not go about things in a practical way. As your symbol is THE RAM try not to headbutt your way to good fortune instead of taking time and having patience. Show your understanding and encourage people with love rather than demands.

This card suggests security and stability of life. You are on top of things and everything is under your control. It is your hard work and judgement that has brought you this far.
