    Tip of the Week:
    ​​

    Even with Summer Solstice fast approaching and Mars entering Virgo on June 17, Jupiter in Cancer is the big news now.

    Positively, Jupiter in Cancer boosts confidence levels. However, while Jupiter is symbolic of faithful expansion and increase, it can prove to inflate egos and attitudes too. In other words, it could embolden some at the expense of others.

    This is certainly how the game on Earth goes, and in duality in general. All increases or strong assertions must invariably be countered for the sake of balance. Since its entry into Cancer occurred while the Moon was already waxing, the next New Moon – also in Cancer, that occurs on June 25, will more fully activate its influence.

    The personal question is: what will its influence be in your chart and life, specifically?


    ​Have a great week,​

    Weekly Horoscope:

    ​Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

    Saturn and Neptune, closely aligned at the early degrees of Aries, is the heavy in your world now. Its effect is likely to be one of delay and possible confusion, requiring patience. Fortunately, Mars in the late degrees of Leo is supporting a sporting attitude and approach. As it shifts into Virgo, you will likely be challenged to manage some emotional turbulence from about June 17-27, especially.

    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

    A busy time continues, and will continue yet, especially through much of July. You have likely been digging in deeply, perhaps inspired, but probably pushed by circumstances to get to the bottom of things. Maybe these things are associated with outer tasks, yet the focus might also be on you, your attitude, your focus and investment. Get ready for a creative, if edgy push.

    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

    New directions and aspirations have by now been set in motion. The pace will accelerate over the coming weeks. You should be prepared to be confronted with the need to make bigger efforts. Attitude is ever the key and is supported by gratitude. Jupiter in Cancer is destined to be an abundant cycle for you. The challenge is to contribute to it being the kind you want.

    Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

    Jupiter’s inflationary impact in your sign has begun. You are not at the mercy of fate or circumstances, however. This is where the power of choice comes to the fore. The key is to be clear and deliberate and to follow through too. Left to its own, Jupiter could expand your waistline and nothing else, so get clear on how you want to direct it.

    Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

    Jupiter in Cancer for you will offer access to deep reserves of faith, confidence, and power. A core feature of this power will include your ability to imagine. On the high side, imagination is the power behind creativity, empathy, and compassion too. Negatively, imagination can twist perspectives and literally lead a person insane due to negative hallucinations. Focus to make it work for you.

    Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

    Returns for past efforts will begin to roll in for you with Jupiter entering Cancer. Hopefully, you have been diligent and integral, because the returns could as easily manifest as liabilities as rewards. Often, the results are mixed. Whatever the results, the point of power is ever in the moment. Negatively, you will be extra busy putting out fires. Positively, you will be riding the waves.

    Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

    Jupiter in Cancer indicates themes of contracted expansion. The contracted part implies the need for sober thinking, focus, and discipline. To this end, you are wise to at least be aware, but working with a plan stands to bring about the best returns. This is a call to at least set some of your bigger goals in motion, to establish a foundation and build a momentum.

    Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

    Cancer is your philosophical sign. It is associated with innovative thinking and invention too. Some measure of engineering is implied, if in the loosest sense of the word. The main point is that truth is more fully a principle of action than it is of mere ideas. In other words, our actions are the strongest expression of our truth, so focus to bring them into greater alignment.

    Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

    Over the past year, the flow of destiny has been to deepen and widen the scope of your relationship life. Meeting new people, supporting the prospects of new friendships, and involvements were featured. Whatever the result, the focus now is to deepen bonds and advance to the next major steps and phases of engagement and cooperative participation.

    Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

    Are you ready for more and deeper engagement? The focus is especially strong regarding family relationships. Deciphering who you are at this stage and what constitutes your best approach is featured. In the short term, you will likely push to experience a wider scope of freedom, at least to express yourself more authentically, which might require clearer boundaries.

    Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

    Jupiter in Cancer could have mixed results for you. On one hand, you could well experience a whole new level of abundance. The challenge could include the need to overcome tendencies to worry, probably due to an overemphasis on unnecessary details. Regarding the latter, where and how can you be (or do you need to be) more faithful and less exact?

    Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

    Cancer is your creative sign, and Jupiter there will support you in kind. The key now is to resume what you started over the past year or two. You will likely be involved in multiple projects, so trust that and do your best to manage your time well. This is a call to cultivate your existing skills and talents with an emphasis on entering new territory, such as in the marketplace.

    Tip of the Week:
    ​​

    The Moon waxes to Full this week on June 11 at 20 Sagittarius 29. It will do so with both Mercury and Jupiter newly in Cancer. The outer synchronicities of this event are bound to stir emotions.

    Of course, there are many stages and fronts in life, and such events are triggers for multiple destinies.

    The exact degree of the Full Moon is symbolic of both the culmination of processes that were activated by the New Moon, and it is symbolic of where to release, let go and move on.

    This ongoing process of accumulating and releasing is a natural part of life. However, we humans are strongly inclined to hold on, usually due to various attachments and sentimentalities. Doing so is both an expression of reaction and control. Yet, letting go can be as simple as cleaning house and maintaining a high vibration based on clearing the clutter, which can be both literal and figurative too, as with perceptions and attitudes.

    Imagine that the natural rhythms of nature guide us to let go that often, even if subtly. Yet, upon observation, it might be noticed that people hold on and resist the flow. This is an example of how the human ego operates. The key to ‘having’ versus ‘being’ the ego is increased self-awareness, and Astrology is a master tool to achieve it, especially when interpreted with a deeper sense of the evolving soul, as well.

    Weekly Horoscope:

    ​Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

    You might have noticed that you are extra busy in your mind these days. Positively, you are enjoying a wide array of ideas and concepts. Negatively, you may feel a little overwhelmed at times. Jupiter entering Cancer should serve to support increased confidence and clarity. The next hurdle does include deciphering the degree of subjectivity in your perspectives.

    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

    Venus now in your sign, is reason to get excited. The fact that yours is considered the most sensual sign of the Zodiac is due in large part to the earthy inclusion of lovely and alluring Venus. She joins forces with Uranus, supporting a bullish assertion, which will increase steadily into early July. Mercury and Jupiter entering Cancer will inflate your emotions, so get ready to feel the love.

    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

    An assertive cycle continues guiding you to get to the bottom of things. How deep you will go depends on you, on your nature and destiny. The key in this regard is to be aware that there are ever deeper levels. So, just go to where it feels satisfactory. Positively, the Jupiter factor is destined to boost your confidence levels.

    Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

    First Mercury, then Jupiter then the Sun entering your sign over the next couple of weeks will inspire you to take new initiatives. The New Moon in your sign on June 25t will then catapult this entire dynamic to greater reaches yet. Expressing your thoughts and feelings, therefore, will emerge to be without censorship or restraint, unless you are aware enough to be more diplomatic.

    Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

    A social mood will linger for a while longer, yet will soon begin to turn more inward, starting this week. Positively, you will be able to harness this orientation and direct it to creative expressions. Call it a deep dive, that will last for about six weeks or so. Mars in Virgo, then Libra, will help support your drive and resolve.

    Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

    The strong Gemini factor combined with Mars in your sign is pushing you to take new leads and make deliberate efforts for the sake of your career, or perhaps simply regarding your social status in general. Jupiter entering Cancer should have the effect of rewards for past efforts beginning to flow in. Yet, keep an open mind because the return could simply amount to opportunity.

    Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

    A philosophical mood has slipped in, supporting you to both see a bigger picture and with sharper insight. This will lead you to inspirations to expand your public and professional aspirations. Increase or advancement is usually the goal. Yet, you should be prepared to concentrate your efforts with increased discipline.

    Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

    A soul-searching process that has been underway for many months especially (even though for you it is a lifetime journey), has been more emphasized lately. Positively, you are feeling like the phoenix ready to emerge from the ashes. A rebellious approach is indicated, but it could be as much directed inward as opposed to without, as with your own attitude.

    Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

    Increase and expansion on relationship fronts have been a major theme for about a year now. Due to other factors, it may have come with a few unexpected twists and turns. A core theme has been to direct you back to home. The deeper story is that home might not be an address so much as a true state of being, according to your nature and destiny.

    Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

    Making needed adjustments in the quality and health of your lifestyle continues. It does already and will even more soon include the authenticity of connection with significant others. What is the importance of family to you, and are you enjoying a full scope of reciprocation? These and other such questions will become more important over the coming weeks.

    Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

    Gemini is your play, fun, and games sign, as well as your lover. Personalities aside, a weave of variety and a strong sense of your own sense of individuality is emphasized. While this theme will continue, there will be a shift this week to bring even more emphasis to refinements of your skills and talents. Inspired by the prospect of monetizing your efforts is featured.

    Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

    Happy to tend to matters close to home, you are about to undergo a shift, at least in the scope and/or direction of your focus. Positively, you will experience a new sense of confidence and creative determination. The combined influences of Saturn and Neptune in Aries is a call to be more disciplined and to aspire to a whole new level of abundance.

    “Astrology reveals your nature and destiny with what can be described as ‘scientific detail’. In alignment with the here and now, with your experience of ‘ground zero’ fully and authentically is simply the most spiritual thing you can do, all notions of religious belief aside. Genuine authenticity is perhaps the best way to describe it, and it implies deep alignment.” ~ Michael O’Connor
    Tip of the Week:
    ​​

    As May days end and June begins, a new momentum is brewing.

    Neptune and now Saturn, both in Aries, the first sign of the Zodiac, the sign of pioneering initiatives and new beginnings, are strong indicators. Since both planets will then turn retrograde and re-enter Pisces is significant. So their brief sojourn in Aries can be understood as a sneak preview of the larger dynamic that will unfold more fully in 2026, which aptly is a Universal 1-Year.

    Jupiter is poised to exit Gemini in a couple of weeks, where it has been for a year now, synchronizing with a steady rise in the scope and degree of polarized views on social fronts. Jupiter will enter Cancer on June 9, which is the Sun Sign for both Canada and the USA, which supports the prospects of boosted confidence levels on both sides of the border. Yet, since Cancer is ruled by the Moon, we can also expect higher and lower rises and falls of the overall emotional tenor as well.

    That Jupiter will form its final square to Saturn in Aries soon after it enters Cancer marks an important dynamic of decisive actions on economic fronts. The overall process will take several years to fully manifest, but we will gain strong hints about what it implies as early as this summer.

    Weekly Horoscope:

    ​Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

    Many thoughts, new perspectives, and ideas are on your mind. The biggest challenge might be to set realistic boundaries to avoid overwhelm. Sharing these with significant others will likely prove to be a diplomatic process. Getting clear on your values and priorities is featured and might require some extra attention to guide your objectives to healthy and wholesome outcomes.

    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

    A busy cycle is poised to get even busier over the coming weeks and months, but especially over the next couple of months. Your best focus however, is probably to attend to unfinished business before taking on major new projects and initiatives. Consolidation and completion are keywords and can apply to any area of your life, so take the time to reflect and clarify.

    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

    Taking creative initiatives is in the spotlight now. These can include new friendships or group affiliations. Taking the lead in this regard is likely required. So, what is triggering your interest and tickling your curiosity? Mars entering its third and final phase in Leo indicates increased energy levels and a strong resolve, especially for you.

    Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

    A busy time behind the scenes continues. This could simply amount to an extra active imagination, inspiring new considerations. Making key investments is featured, and if you have been hesitating, circumstances will push you to be more decisive now. The hint of new beginnings on public and professional fronts is featured, so be alert to signs and clues.

    Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

    The time is right to reach out and stimulate new connections and/or to strengthen existing relationships. A sense of adventure is indicated, probably requiring a visionary perspective. So, step back or aim for a perch where your scope can be wider than usual. Be willing to brainstorm and be open to all considerations, at least initially.

    Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

    Fresh activations on professional fronts should be evident by now. An expansive theme is implied, yet it is one which requires contraction as well, such as narrowing your focus and getting disciplined with what is required. Aim to broaden your social outreach with a strategy comprised of higher-minded perspectives, yet which are also practical and applicable.

    Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

    Gemini time tends to harmonize well for you. It is generally a time for deciphering what is true for you. A process of self-honesty is implied and could require an added measure of courage. Fortunately, Mars in Leo is supporting just that and stands to help you break through persistent patterns of seeing things as you want as opposed to how they might actually be.

    Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

    Another round of deliberation to determine what constitutes the higher versus the lower road for you is underway. That the answer is not so straightforward is part of the destined challenge. Some might assert what constitutes the best approach, while others counter with alternate perspectives. So, it comes down to what you deem right and true for you.

    Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

    Fresh stimulation on relationship fronts should be evident by now. With your sights set on the future, short-term satisfaction alone probably will not suffice. Some very real changes are brewing, yet their fuller implications will not likely be revealed for a half a dozen weeks or so. Positively, rewards for past efforts are starting to flow in as well.

    Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

    Directing more time and energy to making adjustments for the sake of improvements in your daily rhythm and routine is a central theme now. Health, happiness, and a more satisfying flow in general are featured. Changes in your lifestyle are indicated, and the goal is to adjust your attitude and perhaps to take a new approach to family interests.

    Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

    Relationships with significant others probably require extra efforts of late. New considerations regarding what constitutes fun is on your mind as well. Shaking things up a little is indicated. A sense of adventure may be necessary to break free of habitual patterns and perspectives. What can you do that feels new and inspiring?

    Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

    Taking the initiative to enter the next effective stage of personal progress is a central theme now. Summoning the courage to act might require a wider scope of both possibility and what might feel necessary. While the Aries factor, which in your case is associated with practical matters and priorities, is getting stimulated, you still have to get clear on your resolve.

    “Gaining a clearer and deeper understanding of who we are and what constitutes the finer details of our destiny is where Astrology comes to the fore. In my extensive studies of multiple systems over 4 + decades of research and practice, no other model or system even comes close to it. Not Numerology, not the Tarot, not Myers Briggs, not some other form of oracular tools, not any psychic or medium or anything else. All of these can prove helpful but are invariably limited.” ~ Michael O’Connor
    Tip of the Week:
    ​​

    The Sun entered Gemini on May 20 this year, to begin what can accurately be described as ‘Gemini Time’.

    The New Moon in Gemini on May 26 also indicates an added, creative zeal. The Sun, Moon, Mercury, and Jupiter all in Gemini will also inspire both intellectual exchanges and social engagement.

    In the background, Uranus in the late degrees of Taurus indicates the worldwide revolution pushing towards digital and crypto currencies. At worst, Uranus slowly pushing through the final degrees of the bull is indicative of selfishness, megalomania, and unscrupulous antics in mass social, political, and economic arenas, (a.k.a., power grabs).

    Jupiter approaching its 3rd and final square with Saturn in Cardinal Cancer and Aries respectively in early July, is part of this plot, but more on that later.

    In the foreground, the pace will accelerate steadily this week with the Moon in Aries and making multiple conjunctions to begin new cycles. The first of this series is a conjunction with Saturn at the critical 29th degree, just hours before it makes subsequent conjunctions to Neptune, Venus, and Chiron, activating a creative, healing or repairing cycle, supported by Mars in Leo.

    Positively, much can be achieved and on a variety of fronts. At worst, the focus could become scattered, and efforts squandered. It comes down to vision, determination, strategy, and focus.

    Weekly Horoscope:

    ​Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

    The Moon in your sign as the week begins will spark your interests and energy levels, even amidst the waning Moon. Expect the pace to accelerate as well, as Spring enters its final third and drives towards summer. With Saturn entering your sign, you may notice that you become more sober and determined, and it will push you to confront any inhibiting fears.

    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

    You are probably as busy and engaged as a dandelion-loving honeybee in May. Mercury in Taurus has guided a practical, ‘show me the money’ attitude, but that edge stands to soften as you direct more attention to purpose than profit. Even so, your vision is invariably kaleidoscopic as you focus on allocating energy and focus to a variety of fronts, some practical, while others less so, with an emphasis to simply be…

    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

    The Sun now in your sign signifies new initiatives. This will become even more evident as the New Moon enters its waxing phase. Mercury in your sign too will synchronize with sharpened interests guided by Spring-like curiosity. The urge to express and communicate, to be heard and acknowledged, will likely prove stronger than inclinations to simply listen.

    Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

    The time is right for a bout of retreat, or at least enjoying more time behind the scenes. This cycle will not last long, especially since Jupiter is destined to enter your sign on June 9, which will have an amplifying effect on you somehow. So, this is your cue to use this time to rest and recharge, or at least to quiet your mind in preparation for a big tent event coming your way soon!

    Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

    Gemini time is both about you in terms of your heightened sense of individuality and your social outreach. As is true of the twins, you will focus to satisfy both. Mars in your sign is helping you to take bold new initiatives, and Jupiter entering Cancer could result in a significant boost in your confidence levels. Yet, the key is to connect within first.

    Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

    Gemini shares close association with your public and professional life. You can, therefore, expect some activations in this area, especially after the New Moon. Jupiter has been in Gemini for almost a year now, leading to expansion, yet has been subject to contraction, or what can be described as ‘grace under pressure’. Yet, the restriction is about to be released.

    Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

    The call of new adventures will become louder this week. Like a clarion piercing the airwaves with its shrill summons, you will feel inspired to respond. A yearning to see a bigger picture, yet close up and in detail, is featured. More than mere answers, you will push for harder truths that bypass your mind and that speak directly to and from your heart.

    Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

    Perhaps more than any other sign, your journey often guides you to junctures that require discernment regarding higher and lower roads. The irony is that the higher way is usually harder, but the rewards are also greater. A yearning for new knowledge and skills that equate to personal power is dancing in your mind, perhaps as dreams yearning to be realized.

    Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

    Your world has been steadily changing. In some respects, the process has been one of expansion and liberation. Yet, since it has also been a soul process, it has also effectively served to sever you from ego attachments, which can leave a person feeling raw and vulnerable. The key now is to increase your social outreach with a sense of adventure.

    Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

    Gemini in your chart points to fresh activations in your lifestyle, with added emphasis on health. The guiding principle is realism, perhaps guided by idealism, yet not replaced by it. Saturn entering Aries will push you harder than you perhaps have been for some time. Positively, it will mobilize you to become more determined than ever.

    Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

    Hopefully you are in the mood for some fun and games, because that is what Gemini time has in store. On the other hand, it could manifest more fully as some measure of drama that will push to draw on your reserves of faith. Your willingness to explore new directions, or at least new modes of perception, interpretation, and expression, is featured.

    Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

    Directing more time, energy, and focus to home and family will become increasingly apparent over the coming days and weeks. Positively, a creative impulse is also rising, and one that will last quite a while. Hardly a singular focus, it will direct you to endeavor to achieve a variety of goals on a variety of fronts, or at least a major project with many angles and facets.

    “Thank you for the session yesterday. I was quite astonished with the accuracy that you were describing my past and my previous husband and my personality! I am still processing everything. Many thanks again. This was quite a fascinating experience I must say. The messages and your kindness are so much appreciated. Warmly, Mira
    Tip of the Week:
    ​​

    The big news in the world of Astrology now is Saturn at the critical 29th degree of Pisces as of May 13, and poised to enter Aries on May 24.

    The influence of the 29th degree is one of some mode of overcoming and of delay, requiring patience. This can be especially said of Saturn in Pisces, regarded as the karmic planet in the karmic sign.

    Interestingly, when Saturn is in Pisces in a person’s Natal Chart, it generally indicates an absent father, whether literally or figuratively, as with emotionally distant and cool, if not outright cold. The synchronicity of this on the social and political airwaves is apt indeed.

    When Saturn enters Aries on May 24, we can expect things to heat up even more than they are currently, thanks in large measure to both Venus and Mars also in fiery Aries and Leo, respectively. Chiron also in Aries since May 2018, indicates a wounded sense of authenticity and a subsequent decline of genuine enthusiasm for life. Given the gravity of drama on the world stage, it is also a relevant synchronicity.

    Since Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac, whenever a planet enters it, the ignition spark of a new round of destiny is fired.

    Interestingly, when Neptune entered Aries on April 28, the day of the publicly shared first phone call between Prime Minister Mark Carney and President Donald Trump took place under a late waning dark Moon. Exactly two weeks earlier, Mark Carney was sworn in as P.M. on March 14 under the light of the Full Moon in Virgo, which is where his Moon is in his Natal Chart. Then again, in the dark of the New Moon, exactly one lunar month after Neptune entered Aries, Mark Carney was proclaimed the winner of the Federal Election with Neptune at the exact first degree of Aries.

    Zero degrees Aries in any person’s chart is indicative of a charged area of focus where we want to take initiative in light of the greater theme of our destiny.

    What’s your destiny? Your Natal Chart holds the clues when one knows how to peer deeply into it, which is not common.

    Weekly Horoscope:

    ​Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

    A busy time continues, complete with labours of love on a variety of fronts. Hopefully, none of them will get you into trouble… The emphasis is on practical creativity. Given the season, outside activities are especially inviting. Saturn entering your sign next weekend will add to this overall theme but could also require that you confront any security fears.

    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

    Most creative work requires the groundwork, planning, preparing, clearing, and then foundations. As fully engaged as you likely are in noticeable ways, you are probably also busy making plans for future projects. The current focus includes improvements and refinements of various kinds, requiring you to get right to the roots of any hindrances.

    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

    Big changes are brewing. Currently, however, you have the opportunity to coast a bit and enjoy simpler pleasures, with your energy levels running higher all the while. This could include new encounters with old friends. Returns for past efforts will begin to roll in soon, providing you with something of a report card. Positively, your confidence levels will be boosted.

    Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

    A process of building and preparing for the future continues. New tools and/or skills are probably required. Discerning what constitutes sound investments is featured. These can be as much about attitude and priorities as financial interests. Meanwhile, fresh starts on professional fronts, or perhaps more generally regarding your social status, are imminent.

    Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

    Taurus time is generally one for practical accomplishments for you. This can refer to any activity from gardening to spring cleaning to financial responsibilities and interests. Hopefully, you have been able to enjoy the added emphasis on creativity this year, which includes both new projects and completions of existing ones, and this trend will continue.

    Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

    As though you have come out of the mountains and entered a wide valley, it is supporting an expanded vision of reality. So significant are the changes implied in some regards, that it is as though what you once deemed factual, real, and true and under review. At worst, this is shaking your world. Positively, you are intrigued and inspired.

    Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

    Taurus time is perhaps the deepest of the year for you. It can include feelings and experiences that can be described as a ‘dark night of the soul’. More generally, it is a good time to do some kind of cleanse, whether literal as with your body or of your living environment, or of stagnant attitudes and emotions, and so on. The emphasis is strongly on relationships.

    Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

    Who do you love and how and why? These and other such questions are likely on your mind. Circumstances are pushing you to give more than usual, and more than you might feel inclined to contribute. The time is right to receive guidance and instruction as necessary, or to activate new approaches altogether. What constitutes the higher path now?

    Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

    The steady stream of changes in your daily rhythm and routine that has been underway for years now, let alone months, has entered an important new round. It is leading to a whole new spectrum of relationship engagement. Changes in this regard are likely, but it will likely manifest as a process that will continue through May 2026, at least.

    Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

    What fun and games are keeping you happily occupied now? With Venus in Aries currently, creating beauty one way or another, but especially in your living environment, will be a source of inspiration. Mars in Leo, meanwhile, suggests that your ambitions are running strong, so you could well be deep into a bigger project than you bargained for.

    Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

    While you are willing to enter the ring to confront opposition, in one regard or another, you may also be wondering if it is worth the effort. This confrontation may be literal in some form, yet there are indications that they are more fully features of your perceptions, and perhaps your self-concept too. A process of growing new roots is indicated.

    Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

    As different as your sign is from that of Taurus, it guides your perspectives and priorities in terms of where to best direct your focus and energies. The objective is to achieve maximum results with minimum effort. Yet, sometimes the work required is considerable, pushing you to work harder than usual, which you probably have and are still.

    “In these complex times, Astrology can be described as a ‘natural psychology’. Because it is an archetypal language that is anchored in the very nature of existence, it is deeply aligned with human nature in the most intrinsic and organic sense. What is not so commonly understood about Astrology is that it is indeed a ‘depth psychology’ tool. What this term implies is the spiritual essence of psychology, which literally translates as the ‘study of the soul’. Among the many strategies available is to guide people from a state of ego-centered consciousness, which can be understood as a state of significant social conditioning, to a soul-centered state, which implies authentic inner alignment with our nature and destiny, or soul plan.” ~ Michael O’Connor
    Tip of the Week:
    ​​

    There are many layers of background influence regarding outer events, themes, and trends. Rest assured, synchronicity is also ever at play. Existence is on purpose and by design. These background influences include the fact that we are in the sunrise phase of the Age of Aquarius, which constitutes a 2160-year cycle! A core aspect of it centers on freedom, rights, and justice.

    There are other, more current, generic cycles of influence underway as well, including Pluto in Aquarius, which is a 20-year cycle that began in late March 2023. Its function will be to transform humanity collectively and could have the effect of significant changes in society as a whole, possibly including extreme control. Yet, Aquarius is also symbolic of rebellion, and many will resist the process.

    The deeper reality is that people tend to become polarized in their views, subject to where and how they access information, which is a social/political factor. This is clearly a major issue in North America at this time, but is also active elsewhere in the world as well. The overall complex naturally includes human psychology, perception, belief, and interpretation.

    In this regard, wisdom guides us to seek inner alignment and to make efforts to determine what is and is not our ‘business’, both literally and figuratively speaking. Yet, free will can be understood as a chaos factor, which introduces possibility within the scope of probability, for better or worse. Thus, as the game goes, we can be influenced, and also make personal choices that lead us away from our authentic voice, path, and direction.

    Weekly Horoscope:

    Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

    On one hand, you are in a feisty and assertive mood. On the other, you are inclined to fortify your overall foundation. Saturn entering your sign later this month will add to your determination but could stir fears as well. It marks a good time to get clear on new directions. Mars in Leo, however, will help you to feel strong and courageous.

    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

    ​The New Moon in your sign on April 27 in its waxing phase is inspiring you to take new leads. Yet, Venus in Aries is igniting an impulse to do inner work, whether psychologically or more literally, as with needed attention directed to your home front. So, you are likely to be extra busy this month, even though others might not see it.

    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

    ​A strong inclination to retreat vies with an equally strong impulse to assert new aspects of your overall sense of individuality. This inner conflict will not last long, however, so aim for some measure of resting to recharge because the pace will quicken towards month’s end and will continue as such for many months.

    Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

    Taurus can be described as your friendly sign. Currently, the emphasis includes emerging ambitions to make sound investments with the long term in mind. This trend will both continue and deepen. Discernments regarding these might require a quieter mind, however, to offset the noisy, distracting influences of the world.

    Leo (Jul 22 – Aug 23)

    Directing attention to your public and professional life and status is the call now. A steadily emerging ambition is featured, and this trend will continue all summer. In the short term, a philosophical mood is lingering, supporting you to realize a larger vision genuinely worthy of your true gifts, skills, and strengths.

    Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

    Your philosophy can be described as guided by common sense. Yet, how it is defined is a subjective matter. You have entered a cycle that implies changes in this regard. You are being guided to reconsider what you might have otherwise been reactively inclined to assume or do over the past while. Inner work is indicated as well, some summon courage to be self-honest.

    Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

    Spring cleaning or some other form of purging is the call now. The goal is to clear the clutter to deepen your overall sense of connection and perhaps intimacy, especially with yourself. Since the primary relationship is ever with our own self, this should make sense. A rebellious assertion is also indicated, which could include getting past your own resistance.

    Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

    Strengthening foundations on relationship fronts is a central theme now. The overall process might require more effort than you would like to make. Obtaining some kind of training is very likely, or you could be the one providing it. In the deeper end, you could find yourself at a crossroads and feel the need to get clear on what is your best direction.

    Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

    Your world is changing, in terms of your daily focus and rhythm. Positively, it is manifesting as an expansion of some kind, perhaps especially on social fronts. With your sights set on the future, you are determined to be aware and proactive regarding what you need to do to arrive in good form. Supported by Aries and Leo, you are likely feeling the love, or at least the fire.

    Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

    Your focus is set on the future. Practical considerations are strongly on your mind. This may be more fully a time for who you know, more than what. At worst, you could feel diminished somehow at a core level, prompting you to determine how to regain your strength. The answer probably includes a steady determination to rebuild altogether.

    Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

    Your focus is strongly directed to home and family currently. There may be a subtle edge on the airwaves in this regard. Positively, you feel energized and focused to get things done. A learning curve is also rising, which includes the irony of ‘unlearning’ or of letting go of old self-concepts, assumptions, or interpretations that are no longer relevant.

    Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

    Cultivating a whole new foundation of perspective and approach is an important current theme. The question you might ask is: “Am I genuinely minding my own business, or have I become swept up in matters that are altogether counter-productive?” If the answer is yes, take the time to carefully reconsider where and how you can better invest your time and energy.
