All Signs
When planetary shifts bring different challenges and opportunities, every event (good or bad) is an opportunity for growth. That's because how we choose to respond to anything is our moment of truth. At this time, first Mercury then the Sun squares big Daddy Pluto. Then Mercury squares stern Saturn. This means that major power struggles are inevitable. ("My ego's bigger than yours!") People will discourage or criticize us. But the accusations are not the big deal. Not really. What's important is our response to whatever's going down. How should we reply to insults, slights, injustices or snubs that come our way? The key is not to sink to the level of the person attacking us. Instead, we must ask "What would Yoda do?"
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Expect difficulties with family members or clashes with someone about domestic issues and real estate. These differences could pertain to religious and political matters. (My God's better than yours.) They might even be related to publishing or travel issues. Whatever the cause -- you will no doubt take umbrage. (Far better that you should take Rescue Remedy.) Don't rise to the bait. You don't have to convince anyone to agree with you; you don't need the approval of others to do what you want to do. Instead, look forward to a wonderful possibility of increasing your income in the immediate future. I smell money coming! It's green, it's dirty, and it's yours!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You don't like to fight. Not really. But you might have strong disagreements with the government or large institutions and at the same time, you might be unhappy about how something you shared was divided between you and a friend or you and a group. In a nutshell -- you are displeased! Don't get stuck there. This displeasure is fleeting. Before you know it, you're all smiles over something related to romance, love affairs, children, the arts, the entertainment world, financial investments and possibly even gambling. Just tough it out through the rough spots because things change very quickly to something wonderfully joyful and beneficial. (Would I kid you?)
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Tread carefully talking to bosses and senior management. Power struggles with authority figures or possibly your partner could get nasty. It's an ego thang. As if that weren't enough, friends or groups are not supportive now. This simply means you have to go it alone for a while. (Of course, you always have your other self to talk to, even if you don't always agree.) Fortunately, by next Tuesday you feel strangely content, and happy with your world. (Go figure.) You're even forgiving of all those nitpickers and naysayers. (Mighty big of you.) In the meantime, when the smoke alarm goes off - dinner' s ready.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Some area of your life might get you in hot water this week. (That's a tough way to stay clean.) Power struggles with other cultures, people from farway, the law, the medical establishment, and possibly those in education or in publishing take their toll on you. It's just a plain old fight about something. Probably about control. You can't appeal to bosses or parents because this avenue of help is blocked and stymied as well. Fortunately, before the week is over, a friend (or possibly a group) comes to the rescue. (I hear the bugle in the distance!) Be patient until then. And remember that the only really decent thing to do behind a person's back is to pat it.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Disputes about children or with children are highly likely now. (Never lend your shoes or your car to anyone you have given birth to.) Similarly, romantic squabbles and fights about shared property or responsibilities might also test your mettle. There's more: professional criticism about your ideas, your work or your writing might make you feel like navel lint. (Nobody loves me.) You like to think the best of others; you're not happy feeling critical of people -- especially friends. Furthermore, you want to be appreciated by others. (Adulation is nice but appreciation will do.) Thank heavens, these dreary moments are of short duration. Within days, your good name gets a lovely boost! Expect fabulous PR! (And it somehow turns into money. Wheee!)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Domestic matters seem to be in the toilet -- temporarily. Partners are grouchy. You don't want to give an inch and neither do they. But ya know? When the annals of history are written, is all this really that important? I see. You feel lonely and misunderstood, especially about your work and or responsibilities and the division of labour. You feel like you're getting the short end of stick. Fortunately, in a few days (probably Tuesday) your detractors see the error of their ways. (Oh yes.) At that point, opportunities for travel, education and broadening your horizons in some way suddenly abound! Your world suddenly changes from mouse mind to eagle mind. The pitcher suddenly is bigger, rosier and lots more fun. Yo!
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
It's a curious thing that although you seek harmony, you're also a fabulous debater. (And you probably have a law degree to prove it.) Be careful with squabbles at work. They're probably just power struggles about who should have control over something. (This is always about ego.) What makes it particularly sensitive is that you're also having difficulties with a partner or your boss right now. You feel attacked from all sides. This will bother you hugely. You like to get along with others. You hate stress and disagreements. Fortunately, some sort of gift or goodie comes your way and this makes you feel pleased. Something wonderful lands right in the palm of your hand. (This makes all those previous disagreeable moments -- a mere memory.)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Romantic squabbles or quarrels with children are never pleasant. However, they seem to be the stuff of life. Nevertheless, your happiness quotient has a lot to do with it. If you're unhappy -- the squabbles are nasty and mean-spirited. If you're happy -- squabbles are more like irritations. That's because anger cannot arise in a happy mind. (It's true.) Criticism at work related to publishing, the law, medicine and higher education might be a bummer. Ignore it. But play by the rules. You can look forward to a fabulous time with partners or even members of the public in the next few days. Suddenly -- you are loved! (Kiss, kiss, kiss.)
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You know you can't keep everyone happy all the time. But lately, you can't keep some people happy even some of the time! (Especially in the family or at home.) Not to worry. Just don't stir the pot. (Let them simmer in their own juice.) Arguments about shared responsibilities and the division of labour and who does what will accomplish little. Don't even go there. Instead, focus on your job. Something lovely will happen here very soon. Praise, a raise, something -- will come your way and put a big smile on your face. Don't waste that smile on the ingrates at home. Do something to please yourself. Then, you can come home in good spirits and suss out the situation.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Either you are coming on heavy with others now, trying to prove your point -- or you' re attracting people like this to you. Either way, the squabbles about practically anything seem to occur now. (Even driving!) Naturally, this wears on you and before you know it, discussions with partners and close friends are negative or critical. You need a vacation from all this. And in a way, that's exactly what will happen. Some of you will literally go on a vacation very soon. Others will feel just as happy because of love interests, romantic diversions, creative possibilities, success at financial speculation or just some great, scintillating social times. Yes!
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You're definitely unhappy with someone (possibly a friend or a member of a group) about something to do with your job. You feel like you're being muscled around. If you complain, nobody wants to hear. In fact, people are complaining to you! Holy Dilemma! Do you hit or punt? Just put all these headaches on the back burner. (Let them fry to a crisp.) Instead, focus on fortunate opportunities that come to you in your home, domestic and personal life now. This could be an inheritance, a gift, a perk from the government, extended credit -- something that you like!
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Avoid quarrels with Mom now. (Or dad.) Ditto for your boss. You won't win. Don't get riled up about your "enemies" right now. Oscar Wilde was right: "It is absurd to divide people into either good or bad -- they are either charming or tedious." Since your world is primarily your projection (wholesome or unwholesome) you see sweat socks or net stockings. (They're both out there.) Wonderful times with siblings, friends and even daily contacts are on the menu for your now. This is what you must be open to. Enjoy good times with others. Some of you can make money from writing, speaking or even driving right now. (Lookin' good.)
