“Your album has a lot of references to moons, suns, and planets, so is safe to assume you’re into horoscopes?
I am, but in terms of the record, it’s more of an interest in astronomy, magnetics, and the way that planets orbit and have their own paths, as a metaphor for human beings having orbits and crashing into each other– how certain cataclysmic events in your own life set you on a different path and different orbit. It’s a metaphor for science and human beings and how everything seems to have this echo, cycle, and journey.”
From interview with Natasha Khan in Missbehave magazine.
I love Bat 4 Lashes & all the metaphysics, alt-science & surreal refs in her music. She is either a Zero Degrees Scorp or a late Libra Sun (Oct 25 1979) with Moon-Neptune in Saggo, Mercury-Venus-Uranus in Scorpio squared by Mars in Leo & a wondrous Jupiter-North Node in Virgo conjunction that’s like a homing device for manifesting her most positive destiny in practical ways.

My young hairdresser plays her a lot so i know of her, yes. God i sound ancient. Like i had just heard of the Beatles. But she is like Kate Bush or that Nouvelle Vague girl only more mystical.
I love what she says. I was just thinking that on the weekend, how we meet certain people at certain times and they are our children or our friends and how they shape our lives. But other people we may never meet or we would have, if we had but left the house five minutes earlier…
I think the name Bat For Lashes is very clever. And – is she any relation to Imran Khan or am i showing my age again? -
she makes me think of Wendy Rule

the moon-neptune in saggo is a very very strong indicator of being drawn to spirituality or the paranormal so i think that has a lot of influence over her passions eg. horoscopes ect. does she have anything in picses?

We have the same birthday! (albeit hers is 11 years earlier…) My chart is usually read at 1.4 degrees Scorp, only been told I had sun in Libra by one online service and I quickly shut that window–I am far too Scorpy, must be that I have Pluto in Scorp. The Libra influence, though, is definitely there.
