This fortnight heralds the beginning of the Sun in Gemini, starting today, the 21st and with Venus following along in its’ tracks on the 25th. Full Moon was on the 20th, at very late degrees Scorpio. So, two Scorpio Full Moons, in the past month, has us purging much; emotionally as well as physically. Jupiter sextile Uranus, and Mercury going retrograde until mid-June, bringing with it, the usual communication chaos. Jupiter the harbinger of change, and Uranus the disrupter, calling for the restructuring of government and all that that entails, and a much more spiritual approach to everyday matters, where the welfare of the Planet and its’ inhabitants, is the priority. Be prepared though, for more disruption, in all areas. Surprises too, in elections and military operations. We are all being stretched, particularly with our thinking, in regards, assistance and welfare, in light of the current World Crisis. How can we improve, our response to disaster? What needs to change, and how? How can we sustain, the level of neglect and suffering on this Planet, without the cost to our souls being enormous? Our very existence and evolvement are at stake here. Are we yet, a species, whose priority is money and power, at all costs? So, if you are feeling shaken and stirred, it is probably the appropriate place to be. What more does it take, to recognize our shared existence and humanity? Be about the job of cleaning up, your own backyard, and the ramifications will be felt universally. You are that powerful!
FULL MOON 29 Scorpio 27 May 20, 2008 10:12 a.m.
ARIES : This is the time to promote yourself, and canvas your talents. The heavens, are supporting your advancement in all areas of your life. You must be, your own strongest advocate, and then others will take you seriously. Remember, to do things with a little diplomacy however, or you will find others a bit confronted by your abrupt mannerisms. There is an appropriate place for the expression of your combative nature, and that is on the sports field; not the bedroom or the office. In areas of romance, remember to treat that special one in your life, like they really are, special.
TAURUS : Venus about to move into that fickle sign of Gemini, stretches everyone in the love arena, where there will be much ado about nothing, basically. And for a moment the grass may be looking greener on the other side of the fence. Before you rush off, on a whim, take stock of what you do have, and what it is, that you really desire. The mind wanders off on many different tangents, convincing itself, that is a justifiable reason, for just about anything. Do your best to move from the head to the heart, where you will feel the truth.
GEMINI : Indulge yourself not, in any petty jealousies, this fortnight. They could well be the by-product of miscommunication, creating confusion and leading you to jump to conclusions. Give others the benefit of the doubt, in all areas and don’t judge them; or at least, not until you have all the facts straight and you are operating from a calm and cool center. If you are feeling threatened by power figures, remove yourself and your projections from them, or you could end up in a battle of words, with no real solution, awarded you.
CANCER : With these strong moons affecting you, to the degree that you need to make changes in your life, then the beginning of this next fortnight will be the time to begin. Gracefully allowing the old to depart your life, is a must. You have outgrown jobs, places, people, and possessions, which is always a part of the evolutionary process. Discerning what they are, is more of a relaxing into, than a digging to find out, procedure. The more you can just surrender, the easier it will be, for all concerned. Rushing and pushing, will only serve to create stress.
LEO : Mars is stirring you to action. Activating your talents and allowing your inner nature to shine. This inner nature, we could call your soul, and when it is happy and fulfilled, you are a radiant person. Move towards, what makes you happy and you will find success this fortnight. Sharing through communication, will shed light, on whatever needs to be done. Boldly making the necessary adjustments, without too dramatic an agenda, will put you in the right place, at the right time, to receive some valuable information, about the next stage of your life.
VIRGO : If you are trying to keep things organized this fortnight, it could be a bit of a battle and a headache. Better to, surrender to the mess and make the most of what’s left. Your nervous system will suffer enormously, if you do too much, and try to keep up to your normal pace. Find an outlet for yourself, which could include some journal writing, or penning an article. This way, you will get to express all that pent up emotion, which otherwise, could lodge itself in your system. Waste no time indulging in old thought forms, which hold you in the past. Make a new choice and move on.
LIBRA : Information comes from many different sources, and often only serves to confuse those, pursuing it. Keep it simple this fortnight, with a view to discarding some of the no longer needed, kind of thought patterns and ideas. Getting a new perspective on life, serves to broaden the mind as well. Perhaps now is the time, for that much needed break or holiday. What is the destination; or perhaps an entirely new one is in store? Allowing the usual routine to wind down, even for just a few days will promote fresh insights to permeate your mind.
SCORPIO : Keeping your nose to the grind, appears to be a little easier now. It could just be the Full Moons in your sign, giving you that much needed, extra stamina or it could be, that the task master Saturn is still supporting your Planetary ruler, Pluto. Whichever, it is, just be grateful, that when others, are buckling under the pressure, that you have the resources to continue, unheeded. Soon you will be able to rest up a bit, and all good things will come to you. If the current energies, are lacking in depth, then perhaps it is up to you, to add to it.
SAGITTARIUS : As I mentioned, Jupiter and Uranus, doing the light fantastic, creating some very welcome, unpredictability to your life. Although the tone is a little more sombre, in Capricorn and Pisces, respectively, it will enliven things, none-the-less. Some routines and disciplines, like yoga and meditation, actually allow us the freedom to explore other realms and dimensions, and fulfilling a big part of our need to adventure. So next time you want to buck at the idea, of some formal exercise, remember, it could just be the outlet you need to broaden your horizons.
CAPRICORN : Just how serious are you, about making the changes, that will redirect the flow of your life? Or are you so entrenched in the structures of your own making, that you can’t see your way clear, to make the next move? Perhaps it is time to ask for some guidance, from your higher-self, as to what needs to go, first, in order to free you up enough, to get a clear picture, of what’s next. Being so consumed by responsibility, it can at times, be difficult to see what is plainly in front, of your very nose. Relax a little, and start to delegate.
AQUARIUS : Feeling pushed into action, is fine if you are up to the challenge. Everything is supporting you to communicate your ideas and beliefs this fortnight. Now that you have let go of an aspect of yourself, which you have outgrown, this will be much easier than anticipated. It was suitable behavior when you were a teenager, and you are no longer that, now are you? There is a softening process occurring, which will expand the borders of your heart, to encompass so many more in your environment, not so much out of compassion, but rather love.
PISCES : Jupiter is your planetary co-ruler and as such, has you also experiencing much growth, in the area of love. Love that encompasses all, and reaches out to embrace those who are receptive to it. You are learning the difference between sacrifice and surrender. Where once you lost yourself, to suffering, you now see the opportunity to love. Where once you felt weak and insignificant, you now feel strong and empowered, in the true sense of strength. Where you once felt manipulated, you feel the right to ask for what you want and you can face rejection when it comes.
