What is the reflection you want to project out into the world? What is it you want people to see? Really try to visualize what you look like to another human being. What kind of energy do you emit out into the world around you? Are you someone who is inviting to others? Do you contribute ideas and positivity energy to your community?
Now, what others perceive of us is not what we should ultimately worry about, but the exercise can help illuminate what we really want from our lives; what we long for. So if you take the information gained from visualizing what you look like to others and try to align it with the deepest awareness you have of what it is you want out of life, and who you are in this world, do they match? If not, why?
We are all going to experience, to some extent, an examination of all of our faults and foibles over the next while. This self-analysis will be good because it will start to open space for growth, but in it we must remember to be gentle with ourselves and with others. We must remember what compassion and empathy mean—to look at someone and see their inner beauty before passing judgement.
Much can be accomplished right now if we all face our truth with integrity and intent. It’s a good time to engage in projects, to work toward family goals, and to work through issues that have sat stagnant, trying to be forgotten.
Aries – Mar. 21 to Apr. 19
There is a power struggle happening somewhere in your life. You feel bound and muzzled by someone else’s idea of what is right. There is not much freedom to move or make decisions. Underneath you know there can be harmony, that there shouldn’t really be a problem, and that you and this other person are dependant upon each other. This could be a spouse, or a business partner, or simply a really good friend. Don’t be afraid to engage this other in a cooperative dialogue to seek resolution. It’s important to examine your own attitudes so you can find mutual understanding. There is an opportunity, through the working out of this power struggle, to bring the relationship to a new level. You might find that the two of you discover just how much you can accomplish together if you can come to see each other as equals.
Taurus – Apr. 20 to May 20
Just hold off for a while. Whatever it is you have decided to do, you need to put it on hold. It needs to be revisited and all the excess fat cut away. Somehow there is too much going on: too much money being spent, too much clutter in your house, too many decisions to make. In short: there is an excess of things you don’t need. To help you gain perspective and sort out what to keep and what to get rid of look to the moon, too moments alone at night. You’ll get lots of these moments as you won’t be able to sleep, I’m afraid. But try not to get frustrated! Instead, realize that this is your body’s way of saying that you need spend sometime in that realm of half-sleep so your subconscious and sort things out.
Gemini – May 21 to Jun. 20
I hope you’re experiencing the joy that is trying to come your way, Gemini. Life is a moment-to-moment experience for you right now. You’ve shed a lot of the sour perspective that was clouding your vision of the world. There is a lot to be thankful for, a lot to nurture and watch grow. And the more you radiate this positive view out into the world, the more you will receive exactly what you need at the exact moment you need it. Expect that things will fall into place and that synchronicities will happen. Keep an open stance; stay open to people and experiences. Life by no means is getting easier, I understand that. However, watch the evidence prove itself to you as you settle more and more into the knowing that what you put out into the world is what you will get back.
Cancer – Jun. 21 to Jul. 22
It seems like everyone else is a step ahead of the game. And at the same time, weird and frustrating things are happening, like your car will break down, or you’ll miss your bus, or you won’t be able to find that vital piece of paper. And then something magical and unexpected will happen and everything will get figured out even better than you had intended in the first place. Notice that each time magic follows tragedy you have somehow been able to calm your mind and let go of the stress. You have been able to identify what first filled you with anxiety and caused things to mess up. This is the beginning of a breakthrough for you. Soon, those moments of distress will no longer have control over you. So let the universe keep tricking you into self-realization and continue to ask for guidance.
Leo – Jul. 23 to Aug. 22
Just pretend intend that you’ve got this all under control. Respond to the situation from a centred and balanced place. Always take time to go breathe and cool down when something frustrating happens. There is no way to make it all happen exactly as you planned, so be careful, and do things one step at a time. The most important thing right now is that you take time to feed and nourish your heart and soul. I know it doesn’t look like it, but there is a flower blossoming in your energy field. Something new is growing. Whether this is an understanding about life in general, or the birth of a new project, honour it. Consciously treat yourself and others as a midwife would treat a pregnant woman. Make sure you are eating properly and getting enough exercise, too. A whole and balanced approach to life is very important right now.
Virgo – Aug. 23 to Sept. 22
You feel isolated and removed from the group. Your heart is heavy and you’re having a hard time finding a way out of any complicated issue you may be dealing with, and even out of your state of mind. It’s imperative that you try to gain a different perspective; you are not really alone. Look at your life and where you live—the people you know—as if you are a tourist. Pretend that you haven’t ever seen or experienced any of it before. Be truthful and honest with yourself about how you feel and try to strip yourself of any self-serving or narrow minded motives. Because something is off kilter. You’re not seeing the brilliance that exists, the opportunity for joy and open hearted exchange. You can’t carry all the worry all by yourself.
Libra – Sept. 23 to Oct. 22
Man, you are really worried about everything right now, aren’t you? Every option open to you looks daunting and overwhelming. Well, I’m sorry to tell you this but . . . you’ve got to face that fear head on. Every time it rears its ugly head, that’s a sign saying: MOVE IN THIS DIRECTION! Your body and heart want to cleanse you of some sorrow. Pay attention, notice that every time you get triggered into fear there’s actually a memory that opened old wounds and loss within you. I know it’s hard for you to do, but you’ve got to reach out and be vulnerable with friends and family. Ask them for help and let them be there for you. Listen to their advice and let them help you access the energy and strength that will eventually take the place of the sorrow.
Scorpio – Oct. 23 to Nov. 21
Your dreams are really vivid right now, aren’t they? Your psyche is working overtime and you should pay attention: those dreams do have meaning. They are a direct reflection of what’s happening in your everyday life. You’ll come to understand that all the road blocks that keep springing up on your path are of your own design. Yup, you heard that right. And not only that, but you’ve been running this same stretch of road for some time. It’s time to choose a new path. Have courage and trust in the universe and in your own abilities. Don’t coat your previous decisions with regret and self-blame because that won’t help at all. You didn’t do anything wrong, you had to take the path you did in order to learn what you are learning now. And that learning will serve you well in the future.
Sagittarius – Nov. 22 to Dec. 21
There is some wonderful magic happening in your life, Sag! Your dream is crystal clear in your mind, isn’t it? (If it’s not, you need to do some work clearing the cobwebs so that you can see.) Let your dream/vision guide you. Your actions will bring about new possibilities, new people, and powerful and glorious synchronistic happenings. The current success could trick you into thinking, “this is it, I’ve made it and I can sit back and relax now.” Please don’t do this. You must continue to work hard and move ahead. Stay focussed on the details and make everything exactly as you envision it, no matter how much work is involved. This is your dream, and you need to claim it. And it will, if you allow it, connect you with like-minded individuals who could turn out to be soul mates, too.
Capricorn – Dec. 22 to Jan. 19
You can’t hold on to anything right now; nothing is permanent. Both inwardly and outwardly you are travelling or moving, and you are not going to be able to take everything with you. You’ll have to let certain people and things go. This is hard, yes, but it is necessary. Each person has their own path and you can’t compromise your path right now for the sake of another’s. You have a chance to allow your life to be an expression of art and to access a wellspring of magic that you didn’t know existed. You need these new experiences. You need to challenge yourself with new situations. You need to meet new people and through them gain new perspective. Give yourself this gift, even though right now it might feel like a sacrifice.
Aquarius – Jan. 20 to Feb. 18
This is a time of learning for you. You might be going back to school, starting a new job, working with a new group of people, or figuring out how to cope with the fact that your innocent children have suddenly become teenagers. Whatever it is, stay open to it. Don’t cloud your perspective with assumptions and projections. You truly know nothing about your current situation, so the key is to absorb as much information as you can. This learning will lead to a revolution within your being as it blossoms and becomes knowledge which brings with it new possibilities and responsibilities. It is not wise to act in haste right now. In fact you are not required to take much action at all except that of active and engaged learning.
Pisces – Feb. 19 to Mar. 20
It’s like the perfect storm is happening within you, except that it’s not destructive. In fact, its very productive. Remember that you are in this for the long run. Whatever you are doing cannot be created over night, but it will have long lasting benefits to your life. Just keep that in mind. And access the Woman Medicine energy within your being. This Woman Self knows how to take care of others, and how incite trust through acceptance without suspicion or judgement. She also knows how to work hard and stay aware of all aspects of herself and the world around her in a whole and balanced manner. In whatever you are doing, stick to tried and true methods, experimentation will only complicate things and hinder your ability to see steadily growing results over time.
