The Sun continues in Taurus this fortnight, moving into Gemini
on the 21st. Venus has left the sign of the romantic trickster,
and eased into Cancer, bringing with it, a lot more emotion,
sentimentality and caring. Finally a little depth and possibly
some commitment. Defining the boundaries however, is still
a daunting task, with the Saturn/Neptune opposition still
in force. Structuring the boundless is no easy task. Jupiter
squares Uranus on the 11th, along with Mercury’s entrance
into Gemini. Jupiter heralds growth, and Uranus, radical unpredictable,
sudden events. Hmmm, let’s see what that holds for us
all... In the signs of Sagittarius and Pisces, respectively,
for sure it is about truth, justice and fairness. Expose your
vulnerability and this is enough to bring about enormous change.
With the majority of people walking around like the Emperor
in his new clothes; for the truth to be exposed will mean
a great deal of readjusting, and I dare say feeling. Operating
from our familiar model, can make us blind to the truth. It
is easy to become complacent and naive. Current events will
wake us all up from our slumber. Feel your embarrassment,
ridiculousness and face the situation with some honesty and
compassion. Go easy on yourself in this process, for this
is the end of guilt, brought about by numerous religious traditions,
over the past 2000 years.
NEW MOON 25 Taurus 33 May 17, 2007 3:28 a.m.
ARIES : Get ready, for things are about to change. Mars goes
into Aries, this fortnight heralding a time of fast moving,
fast talking, fast thinking, well fast everything and boy
does this make you happy. Feeling like the sponge, has finally
been wrung out, and all the emotional drain of these past
weeks, along with it. Finally some wind in your sails and
fire in your belly. This is the time, for new growth; developing
a new sense of yourself, through all sorts of transformative
experiences. Good Luck!
TAURUS : Venus in Cancer, makes you want to get close to someone,
very special and being the tactile type, this means physical
as well as emotional. Getting yourself revved for love, will
be easy. Continue to indulge, in all that is good for you,
while the Sun continues in your sign. Be your lovable, adorable,
cuddly self, and ask for all that you desire. For it is your
desires, that will lead you, to where you most need to be.
It is through intimacy, that we get to understand ourselves.
GEMINI : As Mercury enters your sign, a precursor of things
to come, you glimpse the Sun’s rays readying themselves
to grace your sign, as well. You love to talk, to communicate,
to share ideas, knowledge, and information. To network, and
to disseminate this cornucopia of mental stimuli among many.
This is the time of year, for you to be about your business,
of just being yourself. Let no one deter you from your path,
for it is easy to get side-tracked with self-doubt, and criticism;
from your own mind as well, as external sources.
CANCER : You will find a compassionate ear this fortnight,
and no doubt return the favor. Give some of your time, over
the next month, to earthly projects. This could be as simple
as your own reconnection, through visiting nature sights.
A bare-footed walk on the beach, can be enough to restore
your inner calm. As you walk, really connect with the Earth
and her rhythms. You, more than any of the other signs, resonate
with her flow, within the galaxy, and are affected by her
moods.
LEO : With the Jupiter/Saturn connection in the sky, change
has been slow and steady for you over the recent months. By
September, this cycle will be complete, and a new expression
of your will, in action. Learning to use this will, in appropriate
ways, has been a big part of this learning. Getting things
in an underhanded fashion, no longer serves you, or anyone
else. It is o.k. to have our desires fulfilled, just not at
the expense of someone else missing out. You deserve, the
best, and so does everyone else.
VIRGO : Let not confusion enter the realms of your thought
process. Keep things as simple and as uncomplicated as possible,
or you will suffer the consequences of an over-active imagination,
creating willy nilly. Create the space in your everyday, just
to rest the mind, and to quietly contemplate. This is always
best done, in nature. There is a need to constantly check
the antics of your mind, and to make a choice for peace and
harmony. To over-ride, if you like, past programming.
LIBRA : Being overly sensitive, within relationships, can
make for a rather uncomfortable situation. It is fine to feel
your feelings, just mind to not let them put a drain on your
or your partners energy. Sometimes, it is a challenge to know,
when we are being authentic and when we are deluding ourselves,
into thinking we are feeling something. Look for the joy,
and know you are on the right path. Get over any disturbances
as rapidly as possible. This is not the time for game playing
or mental distractions.
SCORPIO : Pluto is closely connected to Venus, to start this
fortnightly cycle. This gives it a a relationship theme, for
you. Now, of course, life is
all about relationship, so it need not be restricted, to the
romantic kind. Using any form of manipulation to get what
we desire, is going to back-fire eventually. Pluto is asking
you to be ruthlessly honest, and while Venus may play a few
games, it is all about honestly communicating. Bring any disturbances,
back to center, as quickly as possible, and move forward in
love.
SAGITTARIUS : A bit like your Leo counterparts, the lesson
has been long and slow. You are at the starting gate, and
ready to go. Things will really start to move rapidly now,
as your new direction has become apparent. You will receive
opposition as we always do, when we begin anew. These are
just the challenges, to see if our intentions are clear, and
our motivation strong. Let yourself not be distracted, as
this is what the lesson of the past months has been about.
Patience along with forward motion. Stay with your integrity.
CAPRICORN : You are a little different from most, in that
you actually need to let go of some of your tight boundaries
and ideas. Lighten up a little and just play for the sake
of playing. Be with your children, rather than disciplining
their games. Find an activity where you feel uninhibited and
express your own youth. Have an adventure, just for the sake
of it, not for the end result, or what you will achieve. This
blessed moment is eternal, not marked in time, by increments
of seconds.
AQUARIUS : Something has transpired, which is motivating you
to action. You are good at reinventing yourself, and your
life. This is the inspiration, you have been waiting, or praying
for. This change will ultimately serve to bring about your
own awakening, and completing, your own life’s mission,
and through this, you will touch the lives of many. Act now,
from this new expression, as it takes no time to integrate,
what has always been a part of your being.
PISCES : Neptune goes retrograde at the end of the month until
November, and makes it’s final opposition to Saturn,
at the end of June. Saturn
wants form, structure and boundaries, and as you well know,
Neptune, is just so difficult to get into a box. On a practical
level, it is about the use of your will, for the highest good
of all, including yourself. The days of self-sacrifice, and
victimhood are over. Let your true hearts desires, lead you
home, to the heart of love, and let the abstract confusion,
be done with. Declare yourself; be bold and stand up.
