  We study the possibility of evading astrophysical bounds on light
pseudoscalars. We argue that the solar bounds can be evaded if we have a
sufficiently strong self coupling of the pseudoscalars. The required couplings
do not conflict with any known experimental bounds. We show that it is possible
to find a coupling range such that the results of the recent PVLAS experiment
are not in conflict with any astrophysical bounds.
