Source Notes
Sy Scholfield quotes “From work in progress” by Anna Couani in "Frictions, an Anthology of Fiction by Women" edited by Anna Gibbs and Alison Tilson (Spinifex, 1983), p. 49: "I'm an aries with aquarius rising and pisces moon ... The reason I'm a writer is because of the mercury/moon conjunction, so important in a writer's horoscope. And on the other hand, although groups of people are so important to me, my conjunction of saturn, mars and pluto in leo, directly opposite the aquarius rising make me a constant, almost impervious and irresistable force for other people..."
