Tip of the Week:

This week’s Full Moon on July 7^th is a Lunar Eclipse. It is not total so will not turn as dark as it would if it were. The degree of the eclipse is 15 Capricorn. Anyone with planets at this degree or one or two before or after will experience the added intensity of this moon.  The inner theme of this eclipse is about reform. This implies clear, conscious and measurable changes somehow. If you feel that this is speaking to you, do not resist. Rather, look for what in your life needs to undergo some measure of reform. Trust your intuition in this regard. If you feel you are experiencing the pressure but do not know what to do or where or how, trust that a clearer look at your Astrology chart will offer some clues. Each sign of the zodiac will feel the influence to some degree and this week’s Horoscope entries offer a glimpse at what might be happening for you and where changes may be needed. As this is the first of three eclipses between now and August 5^th, 2 lunar and one solar eclipse, it might be wise to pay a little closer attention. The fact that both New Moons are in the sign of Cancer adds to the fact that nature wants this reform to occur. Tune-in by being willing to receive guidance and do your best to act upon it.

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

The focus centers on home and family these days. There may be a lot of activity now with a lot of coming and going and mini trips. The focus will turn to matters of security and safety, privacy and boundaries starting this week. Your ambitions are still running high and desires are deep. You will feel lighter in some regards while deeper than others over the next few days. Allow for variety to spice up your life. Break the routine!

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

Thoughts of security are common. There are many levels of security to consider. Finances are pretty basic and finding new and better, or at least more creative and interesting ways to stimulate new streams of income may be on your mind. Identifying your skills and talents and craftiness will help you to focus and follow through. The time is ripe to assert your self and explore new possibilities and this may include love interests as well.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

Taking stock of what you have, want and need is the call now. The clearer you are the more likely you are to manifest these quickly and to your satisfaction. Vague and scattered thinking will produce the same results. This is what all that ‘law of attraction’ stuff is about and it works. Being and having anything and everything you want, within the scope of your karma and dharma is very possible. Make a list or a collage or whatever and get the magic going.

Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)

Its ‘all systems go’ now. You feel excited at the prospect of exploring new people and places. If this is not clear, think about it and you may get inspired at the thought of exploring even your own backyard and neighbourhood etcetera. You may be feeling both rebellious and ambitious these days and this will continue yet will soften somewhat this week as you get clearer on what you will have to give to receive. Commit to integral expressions of your personal power.

Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)

A busy time mixed with desires for rest and retreat makes for an interesting mix these days. You may be very actively pushing in your career and/or public life. Much of the work is probably happening behind the scenes and this is likely to increase. However, you will also enjoy meeting new people. Balancing work with play and socializing will go a long way now. Just make sure you get plenty of down time and don’t worry if you feel you need more sleep than usual – allow for it.

Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)

Your sense of individuality is bright and clear these days. You feel strong and assertive, pragmatic and determined. This momentum will continue to grow so get ready. Your assertiveness will only increase over the next while. This is a good time to take courses and learn or teach new skills as your focus will be especially clear and sharp. Continue to fortify your foundations to increase your overall confidence and to prepare for what will be a very busy 2010.

Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Making moves to take strides to advance your position is in the spotlight now.  You are eager and determined to be seen and heard. This momentum will increase as well. So, don’t hesitate if you need to approach authority figures for favours and earned rewards. ‘Ask and you shall receive!’ Just make sure that you are not asking for the Moon on a plate and be willing to give to the situation as necessary. Shake it up, with full integrity.

Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

As your levels of enthusiasm steadily rise, so too will your ambitions. Desires for love and money are strong these days. You have probably been thinking how to achieve your goals and better yet have been taking the necessary steps and doing the research. Keep working it because there are indications that you are on the verge of a very inventive cycle. The key is to do what you do differently somehow, or with new twists. Maybe you will carve a lucrative niche and ideally fall deeply in love…again!

Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

What to keep and what to let go? These are the questions running through your mind and may include people as well as things. Finances, debts, liabilities, insurance, inheritances, securities and the like may also be on your mind and plate. It is important that you take a sober and responsible approach these days. Make every effort this summer and into the fall to tie-up loose ends. No, not your creditors…. Consolidate a new base of operations that you can enjoy and rely upon.

Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Nurturing your relationships is keeping you busy now. These may be personal as well as professional. Endings and beginnings are all occurring at the same time. Making key moves and investments requires new perspectives for greater success. Your learning curve remains pretty sharp these days and it is important that you follow through. Before the year is out you may need all the knowledge and information you can get.

Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)

Health is central to life and your focus is zeroed in on it these days; whether it is your own health, that of others, or just in general, you want more insight. This trend will continue for a while yet. In fact, you will be exploring new options and alternatives. Exploring new ways to have fun all the while will also begin as a central theme this week. Look into new places to go and see and people to visit, with health and safety in mind.

Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)

Summer is about fun in the sun and this is your invitation. As variety is the spice of life, allow for plenty of it now. In as much as you are committed to making changes in your overall lifestyle these days, you are right on track. Whatever else is happening, keep the faith and trust that you are in preparation more for an expansive period that will begin this summer. This will include new business prospects. Include more exercise into the fun so it is not your mid section that does all the expanding…
