    Tip of the Week:

    If you have not felt or noticed the shift yet, you will soon. I am referring to the Lunar Nodes changing signs from Taurus/Scorpio to Aries/Libra. The axis of the Moon’s Nodes can be cared to the North and South poles where the North holds the magnet and can be understood to pull the energy towards it. The South Node, on the other hand, tends to have a gravitational pull. So, magnet versus gravity. Following this metaphor, the magnet pull can be understood to be stronger than gravitational, yet both do exert an influence. In this regard, the planets that rule each of the signs also play key roles. Interestingly, Taurus is ruled by Venus and Scorpio is co-ruled by Mars, just as is true of Aries and Libra, yet the poles are reversed. (The other ruler for Scorpio is Pluto. Yes, Scorpio has two ruling planets, illustrative of the complexities of the legendary 8th sign.) So, the reversal from Venus at the North Node magnetic pole is significant because Mars can be understood as the quintessential alpha planet, the verb in the sentence, the planet of action, assertion, and aggression. The transits of these planets then play stronger roles than usual. All of this within the context of the now waxing Cazimi Cancer New Moon and the Sun poised to enter hot Leo. Stay tuned folks, the game is about to get even more dramatic and exciting.

    Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

    As has been true for some months, the pull between work and play continues. Hopefully, you have been able to enjoy some fun time because the shift is now leaning towards work again. At deeper levels, you may be feeling and noticing that the time has come for some measure of re-invention.

    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)

    Creating beauty close to home has been a strong theme over the past weeks and it now enters its next phase. Cleaning, clearing, and making improvements and refinements are all featured. There is an edgy element that speaks to renovations as well. Maybe all of the above are focused on ‘home’ where your heart is, literally.

    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

    A surge of energy is yours to enjoy. Yet, some of the energy will be directed to digging deeply wherever necessary. A passionate determination is indicated so you will not be easily sidetracked. Meanwhile, be careful not to take things too personally now and over the coming weeks.

    Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)

    Inspirations and instinctive impulses to take new leads and strides are indicated now. In some respects, you yearn to escape from it all for a while. In other regards, you may be feeling ambitious and know that you need to do the work required. How can you have both?

    Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)

    You are feeling the need to make some key moves to get your needs met. Deciphering what these are and why addressing them is important are the two most important things to decipher. Once you are clear, you will be better able to determine how and what you need to do.

    Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)

    While the energies of the New Moon are serving to boost your confidence levels, especially in as much as you have a practical plan to guide your efforts, the Sun in Leo is leading you to get busy behind the scenes. All being well, you will be able to get a lot done and could emerge in a month or so with a whole new approach.

    Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

    Ambitious aspirations in your public and professional life are igniting a spirit of determination and discipline. Yet, you are also feeling rebellious and are reluctant to simply conform. You want to do it your way such that your specific needs are addressed along with your sense of individuality.

    Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

    A visionary inspiration is igniting your adventurous aspirations. You yearn to make all the right moves to capitalize to get the attention you want and the energy flows that come with it. At this point, ambitions may be too light a word to describe your resolve. Aim to be authentic and true for best results.

    Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

    As though you are emerging from a fog, the seeds of change have been sown and will invariably fulfill their destined purpose over the coming weeks. Fortunately, an ardent determination to go big and hard, as necessary, is available to support your resolve. Be willing to learn new skills and strategies.

    Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

    Destined changes on relationship fronts are now underway. Hopefully, they are the kind of changes you truly desire, want, and need. The tricky part, here, is that desires, wants, and needs are not always the same. So, the other side of this process is to dig deeper to discern which is which and which is best.

    Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)

    Changes in your daily rhythm and routine have begun. You may have noticed the beginning of these a few weeks ago and now they are entering their next major phase of development. Your job is to tune-in and cooperate. This implies breaking free of your comfort zone and doing what is required.

    Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)               

    A creative impulse is rising steadily now and will over the coming weeks. Yet, to harness it, you must be willing to do the work. It appears that you will not be going it alone, however. That is the good news and hopefully, you recognize that. The other side of the deal is that you have to lead by example.

    Guiding Your Future Probabilities & Possibilities…

  • Horoscope for the Week: July 14 – 20, 2023
    Michael Photos 2017 3 e1679699462392

    Tip of the Week:
    The New Moon is set for July 17. For those of you who might be interested in
    knowing, the exact degree will be at 24 Cancer 56. While this is true of all
    planetary alignments, it is something to consider that due to the remarkable
    consistency of the cycles of the Sun, Moon and planets, this event was destined to
    occur ever since the beginning of time when the Moon established its orbital
    relationship with Earth.
    Specifically, this New Moon contains within its hidden themes of determined
    effort, with an emphasis on equality, fairness and justice, or perhaps to somehow,
    as the saying goes, level the playing field.
    There is what can be described as a reactive aspect featured in this plot, as well.
    Further, there are also indications that all of the above will be amplified with
    emotion and drama.
    None of the above need be negative and the archetypal themes apply to all
    equally. How each person or larger ‘person’, (which refers to any legal entity,
    even as large as a country), is ‘triggered’ by such an event is subject to the finer
    details of their destiny, specifically. Yes, it is all quite technical, but the truth is
    that the numbers are quite elementary based on the division of a 360 degree
    circle. The main point is that things are about to get… exciting.

    Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
    This week’s New Moon will trigger the focus on home and family yet again. This
    has been a consistent theme these past several weeks, beyond the norm. So, it
    may simply amount to shifting to the next effective level of engagement. This
    could translate as the need to make more efforts to be more present.

    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)

    You might wonder if it is actually possible that you can even get busier. Well, you
    are about to find out and it is likely that you can. Yet, your activities may become
    more diversified. You can expect that the tempo for diligence will continue,
    perhaps shifting to playing hard and working easy.

    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

    You are about to embark on the next push of focus and effort to create a deeper
    sense of security. Sharing quality with others will be more emphasized. You could
    even find yourself feeling somewhat needy. If so, push any judgments aside and
    get clear on what you need to do to feel safe, secure and happy.

    Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)

    Will, the long-awaited New Moon in your sign has arrived. It will activate you to
    be more assertive. Money and the financial realities of your investments will
    assume a greater degree of importance. Some research is indicated so be ready
    for it. Positively, you should notice that your energy levels are higher.

    Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)

    This New Moon will have a dual pull for you. On one hand, you may feel pulled
    inward. However, on the other hand, you will notice already that you want to

    express yourself and you will want to be noticed. This will require effort and it
    appears that you will be ready to deliver.

    Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)

    You are in the mood to get more involved. This could include joining groups or
    clubs or perhaps even starting one of your own. Giving of yourself will feel easier
    than it might generally. This will prove especially true if there is some form or
    reciprocation. Aim for engagement and remuneration for full satisfaction.

    Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

    This New Moon will really ignite your resolve to get more attention, recognition,
    and acknowledgment. In other words, if you have been waiting to ask for a raise
    or a promotion or a new job or position, this is your cue. The key to following
    through is to feel pleasure from what your new role includes.

    Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

    This Cancer New Moon will prove especially liberating for you. It may seem like
    you have been on hold, perhaps gripped by the past. If so, you might push even
    harder to break through the gates and make a run for it. Whether the urge is to
    simply break free or to actually escape is for you to decipher.

    Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

    This New Moon and its approximate 30-day cycle will launch you into a whole
    new dynamic and one that might not be so easy. Get ready to break through
    emotional walls and any other such barriers. However, it also holds the possibility
    that you will emerge from it feeling reset, and renewed.

    Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

    A definite shift in your relationship life will begin this week and become
    increasingly evident over the coming weeks. There may be a noticeable degree of
    excitement, drama, and even reaction that stems from it. On the high side, you
    will feel more present, focused and passionate.

    Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)

    The focus is shifting now to health and overall well-being. There is a decidedly
    practical side to this focus and there is also a spiritual side, beyond the obvious
    which includes a good diet and at least moderate exercise. The practical side is
    where you might be the busiest and your ambitions will drive you.

    Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)

    This New Moon in watery Cancer aligns well with your own and will prove
    inspirational in terms of creative interests. You could also feel more playful.
    Variety will be the spice, so make room for it. Ironically, Saturn in timeless Pisces
    is pushing you to focus more on better time management.

  • Horoscope for the Week: July 7, 2023
    Michael Photos 2017 3 e1679699462392

    Tip of the Week: Mercury entering Leo and Mars entering Virgo is a spotlight
    theme this week. The transits of the ‘minor’ planets, which include Mercury,
    Venus and Mars and, although they are technically classified as ‘the luminaries’,
    the Sun and Moon indicate the more common aspects of the ever-unfolding plot.
    Interestingly, even little old horoscopes reveal that there is something to this
    notion of celestial influence, to the ancient notion of ‘as above, so below’. That is
    why I have committed to writing them for almost 30 years now consistently every
    week. Of course, I am fully aware that they can be regarded as the ‘outer shell’ of
    more serious astrological study and practice. I would know because I do both. So,
    ‘Thank You’ for being here, because your continued interest and recognition that
    the rhythms and outer synchronicities are real is an important contribution to the
    silent revolution that materialism as a core truth is a delusion and that we do
    indeed live in a conscious universe.


    How these cycles of destiny manifest in our daily lives is so… esoteric, that many
    simply do not ‘believe’ that they do. That they do is an ancient recognition of
    synchronicity, even though that term is quite new and introduced by Carl G. Jung,
    the famous, holistic psychologist. Dr. Jung studied Astrology and Tarot and other
    such subjects, generally frowned upon and even deemed ‘forbidden’ by more
    orthodox academics. Among other things, what the world has learned over the
    past few years is that a high I.Q. does not equate to a high E.Q. The latter refers to
    emotional intelligence and its close, elder sibling, intuition. As humans, we are
    designed to have the capacity empirical sensory experience, instinct, logical
    reasoning and rational, empathy and intuition. Empathy and intuition are what
    can be categorized 6 th senses. A deeper understanding of these is associated with
    the notion of mind as a field that we live in, or which surrounds us and which is
    activated by our energy centers or chakras. Of course, people ‘educated’ by
    mainstream academia usually do not ‘believe in such realities, even though the
    opportunity to experience them is readily available.


    This believing factor is quite interesting. Upon closer observation, it can be
    understood to represent a clear lack of intuition or open, liberated creative

    thinking. Ironically, many of these unbelievers deem themselves scientists. Yet,
    rather than genuinely conduct observational research and experimentation, they
    idly ‘trust the science’ and reactively reject any notion of the influences of the
    planets based on the bias of their paradigm. This is a clear example of bias,
    cognitive dissonance, hubris and arrogance all wrapped up in the same bundle. In
    this regard, many who claim to be scientists ‘worship at its alter’ or hide behind
    notions of conclusive, empirical studies, more than they realize. Yes indeed,
    outside of the process of genuine observational experimental, modern science is
    as much a religion as any other, complete with blind faith and dogma.
    The march of science aspired to the lofty goal of pure objectivity. It pushed hard
    to achieve this and, in so doing, make important discoveries. However, in the
    course of time, neuroscience or the science of how the brain works emerged and
    it has proven that all perception is ultimately subjective. Albert Einstein
    contributed to this focus on better understanding the brain by way of the
    elucidating the ‘law of relativity’, which essentially asserts this subsequent
    understanding that all perception is ultimately subjective and that the notion of
    pure objectivity is actually a myth.
    Yet, there are many who continue push through in hopes that they will finally and
    ultimately prove that pure objectivity is a fact. This pursuit is generally regarded
    as the quest for what is referred to as ‘the singularity. Imagine, all the so-called
    brilliant minds are seeking the singularity while even an average metaphysician (=
    beyond physics or the inner dimensions behind the outer manifestation)
    understands that existence is dualistic. The singularity does exist, but it does so in
    realms or dimensions that ‘transcend’ the physical, material, dualistic dimension.
    The singularity can be described as source and is more commonly regarded as
    GOD. Interestingly, the metaphysical principles and experiential and experimental
    process of realizing it can be accurately understood as spiritual science, which
    transcends religious belief, both the kind that emphasizes deities and avatars and
    the kind that pretends to uphold pure objectivity, otherwise generally referred to
    as empirical science.

    Here is a LINK to a production made by percussion artist, Glen Velez that is
    designed to use sound that will genuinely allow you to feel each of your 7 main
    energy centers or Chakras. Listening to ‘hear’ is less the point. Rather, the focus of
    this experience and experiment or, more accurately, this exploratory discovery is
    based on focusing to ‘feel’ in a sensory way. While those of you who are very in-
    tune with your body in a sensory way will feel the sensations immediately, for
    some it may require a second or third round to be able to feel the beat and pulse
    in each center. In addition to proving to yourself that you have these energy
    centers and that sound is the key to ‘feeling’ them, empirically or with literal,
    sensory sensation, you will also effectively stimulate and activate them. The value
    of this stimulated activation is that it will connect you to you r body more fully
    and their activation is foundational to whole health.


    Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
    Home and family combine with fun, games and the prospects of new love. Even
    long-standing relationships could experience a reset for romance. Otherwise, the
    energy will ideally be channeled into a more playful, creative and even artistic
    activities. Just be careful that selfish desire does not dampen the mood.
    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)
    You have been in a mood to get to the bottom of things for the past several
    weeks. Positively, this has proven to be a satisfying and productive process during
    which you are cleaning and improving where it is needed. This push will go to the
    next level this week, but you are cautioned to take extra care.
    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)
    Getting clear on what you want and do not and need and do not is a central
    theme now. This process of prioritization comes around periodically and is strong
    now. All the while, a restless mood is agitating you to step out and do something
    new with an emphasis on social engagement.
    Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)

    You have come around an important corner and you have begun to accelerate.
    Somehow entering into new territory is indicated. Your energy levels are probably
    running high as a weave of desire and passion pushes you to make you ambitions
    known. A spiritual of surrender lingers in the background.
    Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)
    In some respects, you feel surge of energy with abundant power drive supporting
    you to be more assertive. On the other hand, you are happy to be busy behind
    the scenes and yearn for quietude. This is the perfect combination to be busy in
    your creative space and/or to enjoy private time with your lover.
    Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)
    A career push continues to guide your focus. By now, it has entered a phase of
    experimentation and invention to meet the challenge of the changing times. This
    trend will continue so trust your hunches that it is a good time to consider new
    approaches and to wow the world with a new you.
    Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
    A philosophical mood lingers, despite the fact that you also feel moved to get
    more attention, or at least more action, in your public and professional life.
    Taking an alternate approach is also indicated. Perhaps you do simply want a
    promotion, but one that comes with a new career altogether.
    Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
    Some rather deep activation sparked by the Gemini New Moon a couple of weeks
    ago is invariably producing deep changes within you. Life shedding old skins, the
    process may not be comfortable, but there is a high side to feeling like you are
    able to let go of stagnant thought patterns, attitudes and approaches.
    Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
    Your relationship life continues to undergo changes. You may notice that deeper
    themes are brewing and it may feel like a part of you is dying. Yet remember,

    rebirth of some kind follows death, and the reference is metaphorical. Engage by
    entertaining new possibilities and exploring new approaches.
    Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
    A steady flow of shifts and changes in your overall lifestyle ideally include both
    improvements of some kind and an emphasis towards deeper and more intimate
    engagement with the significant other(s) in your life. With your passions running
    so strongly, you are bound to make a big impression.
    Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)
    A creative and playful mood prevails. It is one that is calling you out to explore
    new territory. Independence is a keyword and is perhaps the best was to engage
    this energy pattern. Be as resourceful as you can and be careful of expectations of
    how others will meet you; ready to adapt quickly to other interests.
    Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)                
    The emphasis on home and family continues. This could well include practical
    projects. Giving more than you might feel the desire to is part of the plot. This is
    where an added measure of determination and strength of character to support
    your resolve is required to see you through to completion.

    Tip of the Week: As Cancer time progresses into the 2nd period this week, the Moon waxes to full in Capricorn on July 3rd. Despite the sober and practical focus of the Moon in the sign of the mountain goat, other factors will serve to moisten and soften the air. Specifically, this includes Saturn in Pisces which is like a misty rain falling on the rugged slopes. Yet, in the deeper reaches, it is having a disintegrating effect as though melting away snow from last winter in the higher elevations. Venus and Mars in close alignment do lend a playful provocative and passionate mood to the overall plot. Yet, Mars having formed a waxing square to Uranus earlier this week is now followed by Venus. These aspects lend a more dramatic tone to the otherwise serene atmosphere and bring caution to avoid reckless attitudes and behavior due to the erratic charge this combination tends to produce. The chart as a whole amplifies this theme carrying over into next week, so be aware and slow down if you are venturing out.

    Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

    Home and family combine with fun, games, and the prospects of new love. Even long-standing relationships could experience a reset for romance.

    Tip of the Week:

    Happy Summer 2023! This means that the Sun is now in the sign of Cancer, which refers to this time of year. Yet, as the cycles of destiny go, we are still relatively early in the waxing lunation cycle of the Gemini New Moon that occurred on June 17/18, depending on your time Zone. The exact degree was 26 Gemini 43 for those of you aware of the degrees in your Birth Chart. Generally, this seed event which has a 29.5-day cycle indicates influences to be informed and aware. This is emphasized by Mercury at 11 Gemini 52, which is strongly associated with Libra, the sign of balance, fairness, and justice. Venus and Mars both closely aligned in Leo are also engaged in this celestial plot and their exact degree positions speak of themes of ethics, principles, and justice due to their association with Sagittarius. Jupiter all the while in Taurus highlights the importance of having confidence in the rebuilding process of the economy.

    Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

    The combined influences of Gemini and Cancer, as with the Sun and Moon factors, make this a good time to blend quality, family time with some emphasis on catching up on your reading or studies. The Venus/Mars in Leo influence all the well hints at love. How will you pack it all in?

    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)

    Busy, busy bee you be. At least this is what the planetary alignments suggest. Positively, it includes a whistle-while-you-work attitude and one that also supports you to happily learn as you go. There does appear to be some deep digging going on as well so hopefully, the kind you like.

    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

    The New Moon in your sign signals initiative. Other factors support this, and it all generally points to a progressive momentum that is building steadily. You will likely want to direct some of this energetic impulse to clean, clear, and make improvements within and without.

    Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)

    While the Sun in your sign does indicate pioneering moves and measures, you may also feel an impulse to bring existing projects to completion. Doing so will likely prove more than satisfying as you also feel accomplished. Making key investments is indicated, perhaps especially for the sake of love relationships.

    Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)

    A powerful, creative, and inventive influence is stirring you to action. Much of it will likely occur behind the scenes, yet the contribution of friends and club members is also indicated. Expressing yourself both for the sake of beauty and practicality if highlighted.

    Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)

    Some major changes in your lifestyle have been brewing for some months. These have entered something of a cocoon phase which will last many months. Currently, the emphasis is on preliminary outreach for the sake of recognition. Avoid the noise but make some sounds that inspire others to listen.

    Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

    Seeing a bigger picture continues to guide your thoughts. You yearn to understand more fully and precisely too. This new understanding is already and will continue to take assertive action to be heard by those whose opinions and influence matter most to you.

    Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

    You may feel like you have arrived at a fork in the road. This archetypal position requires you to decipher which path to take. Both will have their advantages and challenges, so as long as you choose one, you will prevail. Tune in to discern and aim for the one that makes you feel empowered.

    Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

    Who do you know, love, and want to connect with more intimately? This is an important question now and points especially to friends and lovers too. While practical considerations are also influencing your choices, you yearn for as much freedom as you can get.

    Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

    Some cycles ask us to make deeper changes than others and you have just entered such a one. The good news is that it is a short cycle. As well, the changes point to improvements, refinements, and other such adjustments. Fortunately, your ambitions are running strong to fuel your efforts.

    Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)

    This Gemini New Moon impulse indicates a playful cycle. The time is right to step away from the desk and other workstations and to play for a while. You have another few weeks especially, so get them in now and don’t wait. It appears that we are going to be busier later this summer.

    Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)                

    This New Moon combined with the Sun in Cancer indicates a creative impulse close to home. While fun and games enjoyed with family are featured, there is also an emphasis on creative work projects that you enjoy. So, pull out your to-do list and weave work with play for best results.

  • Horoscope for the Week: June 16, 2023

    Tip of the Week:

    Summer Solstice is upon us. The longest day of sunlight occurs over the course of June 20 to 22 as the exact moment of solstice is, as usual, on June 21st. This is when the Sun enters the time/sign of Cancer, measured by Earth’s orbit around the Sun with rhythmic consistency.

    This stabilizing factor linked directly to the Sun’s light subject to the Earth’s angle of axial tilt also corresponds to the regular progression of the seasons thus marking the official start of summer which, ironically, corresponds also the progressive decrease of hours of sunlight culminating at Winter Solstice.

    Can you see how this symbolically corresponds to the waxing and waning Moon revealing a rhythmic, cyclic process of minimum to maximum light and back to minimum again? On that note, the New Moon in Gemini occurs on June 18th.

    Interestingly, the backdrop to these consistent cycles reveals an ever-changing context of planetary positions and inter-relational dynamics. In fact, this planetary context is always changing and is never the same twice!

    In this regard, life manifests as an ever-changing process of social, economic, and political dynamics with core themes remaining the same: a dynamic spectrum of an ever-changing climate, antagonists and protagonists, villains and heroes as the spectrum of life from people to empires rise and fall, invariably, inevitably, consistently and certainly each ever seeking a new spin of perspective, opinion, and ambitious assertion often with justified secrecy, deception, and aggression, as the Earth rhythmically turns and cycles.

    Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

    Your mind is clear and sharp, and all your senses are on full volume. This arousing spirit will inspire you to seek entertaining people and engage in corresponding activities. Although summer is officially here, spring fever is lingering and could well persist for weeks to come.

    Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)

    Your energy levels are running high and strong. Harnessing this boon to redirect it in every direction you feel determined to pursue could prove to result in high productivity. This is an expansive time for you, and you feel excited to use it to advance your overall position.

    Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

    This New Moon seed in your sign will ignite your pioneering spirit. As if suddenly, you yearn to enter new territory somehow. To counter what has likely been a period of retreat, the time is right to take new initiatives of all kinds and at least capitalize on this boost of inspiration.

    Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)

    Your creative spirit will experience a boost from this New Moon. Expect to be more animated and imaginative. Whether in your lab, studio, garden, or garage, this moment beckons creative engagement. It could even manifest as an inventive impulse that inspires you to new and surprising innovations.

    Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)

    Who are your friends, or is the emphasis on your audience? Either way, inspiration to increase your engagement is likely and could well achieve a boost of popularity. Social engagement is generally favored. If you are in the business of building your list and expanding your network, this is your cue.

    Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)

    The spotlight is on your public and professional life. The emphasis is more sober than playful but could prove extra inspiring in terms of advancing your position. Jupiter in Taurus is well positioned to support this effort and will continue for many months, so focus to capitalize!

    Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

    The air-sign Gemini Moon is in your element and will likely prove inspiring and uplifting for you. It signals an auspicious window of opportunity to get away for a bit, if only for a few days. In this regard, do it now if you can. Circumstances could swing quickly to more sobering affairs soon after the solstice.

    Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

    The influences of Gemini tend to be a bit more complex for you than others. However, it can be harnessed positively, especially in terms of personal growth. Use this energy to strip an unwanted layer or two, whether it be in your perspectives, attitudes, habitual approaches, or otherwise.

    Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

    The emphasis on relationships continues and increases this week thanks to the Gemini impulse. The time is right to engage with friends and lovers. The advent of solstice could turn the energy to deeper matters, however. You could be confronted with themes of ending, completion, and transformation.

    Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

    The focus has been and continues to be directed to your health and lifestyle in general. The emphasis will lean toward the quality of your relationships, both in your personal and professional life. Making investments of your energy, time, focus and perhaps money too is featured.

    Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)

    This New Moon contains seeds of creative inspiration for you. There are romantic overtones as well and the combination of these energies could prove quite satisfying. With your confidence levels on a steady rise, you are in a good position to advance to the next level of your overall journey.

    Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)                

    A fresh burst of energy will inspire even more focus on your home and family. It will shift into a stronger creative impulse progressively over the coming days and weeks. Extra efforts will be required and are already so direct your focus to an attitude of determination and a ‘whistle while you work’ approach.
