Astrological Climate for the Week of Sept. 3

Monday, September 3 Emotions run strong today, yet they may hit a wall. We might feel alone
and separated from someone we love as Venus, the planet of desire, aligns with Saturn, the
planet of resistance. We reach out, but fall short of satisfaction. Thankfully, action-hero Mars
forms a harmonious trine with healer Chiron, enabling us to overcome some of the obstacles to
pleasure. Additionally, the impulsive Aries Moon encourages us to push our feelings to the
edge.

Astrology Today: Oracle for Monday, September 3, 2012

September 3, 2012 by Eric Francis In the great design of the universe often the surprise or
hidden factors are the ones that turn out to be the most valuable. A particular resource that
once was much more important to you but which in recent years you’ve discounted has
suddenly re-surfaced. This phenomenon may actually be taking several forms: a partnership a
talent and an idea all come to mind. Look to one you once considered “less than a friend” for
information or assistance and remember to trust just a little more than your instincts say is safe.

                 ===============================================

Astrology Forecast September has a mixture of energies. On one hand, there is playful, social
and communications energies to make it a pleasant month. On the other hand, spiritual destiny
points called the “nodes of the moon” have just moved into Scorpio and Taurus for the next 1.5
year.

This means that you are processing your values and emotions to get clear on your true
priorities, and that means you will be making choices- the kind that you don’t go back on
once they are made!

The other energy that started in late August and goes through early October is assertive Mars
moving through intense Scorpio. Normally you think of fall equinox as being a time of balance.
When you combine aggressive Mars with the deep emotions of Scorpio, the light and the
darkness can both go to extremes.

And all of this is setting up Saturn moving into Scorpio on October 5th for the next 2+ years. If
you have emotional healing to do, then it would be wise to tend to it now, rather than waiting for
it to be put in your face. The beauty of this incoming energy is that it helps you stand in your
power, because everything that makes you powerless is being stripped away. So do enjoy the
light & easy part of the month, but do make inroads on understaning your changing values
because you will be acting upon them very soon. September 1: Tend to important business
before 1:02 PM PDT. The moon goes into its quiet void-of-course phase until it goes into Aries




                                                                                              1/7
late in the evening. See a movie, meditate, or enjoy music on Saturday. September 2-8 : Get
physical on Sunday and USA Labor Day holiday under an athletic Aries moon. Sunday morning
has emotional re-activeness tendencies, so avoid acting out if a loved one says something in
the wrong tone of voice. Sunday afternoon and Monday are much more fun.Tuesday and
Wednesday have mostly pleasant planetary relationships all day, so mix business and pleasure.




Mercy….: Mercury opposite Neptune; Venus squares Saturn; Moon in Aries Published by Priya
under Daily Astrology and Cosmic Weather




 “Love is not a whisper or a weakness No, love is strong, so we got to get together ‘Til there is
no reason to fight Mercy, will we overcome this Oh, one by one, could we turn it around Maybe
carry on just a little bit longer And I’ll try to give you what you need” – Mercy, Dave Matthews
Band




                                 ========================

Dear Friends, We are just coming down from the energy of a powerful Full Moon in Pisces,
Mercury is now in Virgo and Venus squares Saturn later tonight. Here is a sneak peek at an
excerpt from the September Cosmic Weather (that I am just about done working on,) covering
the current aspects. If you would like to read and receive the full report in your mailbox sign up
here for a one week free trial. September Cosmic Weather 2012, An Excerpt == “As we enter
September we are still under the energy of a powerful Pisces Full Moon which culminated on
Aug. 31, 2012. “This Full Moon was conjunct Chiron and Neptune, which may have brought
deep psychological, subconscious wounds to the surface for healing. As painful as it can be to
let go of illusions; be in no denial of the wounds or ghosts of the past. Then we can finally start
to heal and create the reality we’ve always dreamed of but never thought possible. “On Sept.
1, 2012 Mercury entered Virgo and immediately made an opposition to Neptune. This may have
had us searching for clarity through the fog. Given emotions were heightened it would be wise
to wait till we have more information before judging something. “On Sept. 3, Venus in Cancer
squares Saturn in Libra bringing us to a turning point within relationships and financial situations
that have been difficult to say the least. “Saturn in Libra has been asking for a balance within
relationships. And Venus in Cancer has been focus on security — in love and finances. But this
may have also brought to the surface insecurities and difficult emotions. “A square aspect as its
name suggests is a 90 degree angle, and we are turning a corner now. Only we don’t know
what is around the corner until we have turned it. Wherever there seems to be a sense of
restriction or external blockage, or that someone just doesn’t care — this is asking us to turn to
look inward and look at what we need to resolve within ourselves and find inner peace so
something need not be a fight anymore. “Currently the Moon is in Aries, and will be during this
aspect which may be bringing up difficult emotions of abandonment, betrayal, anger, rage,
rejection and pain to deal with. It may be tempting to want to fight for oneself, be selfish but in




                                                                                              2/7
doing so we only end up destroying the very thing we want to love and nurture. “Any
relationship is only as good as it meets the needs of both people involved. And as long as we
are only focused on selfish desires or needs there will always be an imbalance which ultimately
ends up hurting both parties. “Acknowledge what you need, where you need to pull back and
where you need to be more giving. Recognize where your boundaries are and how far you are
willing to go and where you need to draw the line. Then you can find the inner strength to
re-balance a situation that has tipped too far in one direction.” With Love, Priya Monday
September 3 – Moon Meditation: “I am undeterred…!” Moon in Aries: “They” say that what
doesn’t destroy us makes us stronger. And thankfully there is not much that destroys us. Every
day – and week – brings a new chance to be stronger. Today, stick to your plan and keep your
intentions paramount, even if things don’t seem to be going your way. You might find it’s just a
test from the cosmiverse. Get some Peace & Protection.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Practice caution with that particularly ruthless edge you’re
presently wielding, Aries, but don’t surrender it altogether. This 8th-house-Mars energy
is a godsend for thoroughly rooting out whatever may be obstructing a more
comprehensive leap forward in your work life, like how sometimes a good session of
vomiting is all we need to eject the toxins and gain ourselves a second wind. For its best
effects, you must be prepared to do whatever it takes to get the job done right… which
sometimes means ripping the whole fucking thing apart and putting the pieces back
together in a sleeker, shrewder format (then sweeping up the huge mess you made along
the way). This gut-wrenching process also leaves you feeling satisfied that no stone has
gone unturned, no opportunity for improvement passed up, and no bit of rot left to
further deteriorate. Naturally, however, you can see how this same energy can manifest
quite treacherously, should it end up turned against someone you’re upset with and/or
trying to get something from. Once you launch a campaign do whatever it takes to
emerge on top, you might not stop until after your fangs are piercing their jugular.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): One person’s ‘emboldened demeanor’ (that person being you,
Taurus) could too easily strike somebody else as acombative attitude. And though you could
make a reasonable case for their perceived misperception being their issue rather than yours, it
still presentsyou with a problem when attempting to get on the same page. Dang that dastardly
Mars-in-your-7th, sowing the seeds of interpersonal dissent or discontent, regardless of whether
or not you’re actually trying to argue or antagonize or poke in tender places. This week, his
synergy with Mercury and Pluto only further amplifies the intensity with which you’re conveying
your opinions (again, intentional or not), making it seem to those less-self-assured and/or
circumstantially-grumpy individuals subjected to your words that you are pontificating and/or
hunting for a fight. An astro-climate that’sideal for capably getting your point across in writings
or projects or personal creative-work, then, also threatens to sabotage such efforts in any
one-on-one relationship contexts. Aim your energies accordingly.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The rare few folks who get to see the intimate dealings of the
behind-closed-doors, private you—likely, only your family members, best friend,
significant other, and/or housemate(s)—will be receiving a larger-than-usual eyeful of
your unresolved feelings this week. But the big question, Gemini, is whether (1) they’ll
merely be bearing witness to your at-home ventings and purgings as caring spectator(s)




                                                                                             3/7
or (2) they’ll end up as target(s) of your exacerbated wrath. If we go with the first option,
I believe you’ll do the relationship(s) a great service, if you fully allow yourself to share
the emotions… and to go into deep detail about whatever personal history of yours has
invested this particular instance with so much rawness. (For a sign that loves telling
stories, you Geminis have a funny way of omitting certain specifics that would better
help us understand you.) However, if it ends up with the second option playing out,
please be damn sure you are targeting the appropriate individual(s)—and not simply the
one(s) you’re most comfortable with spitting venom at. Wouldn’t it be a bit unfair to turn
some dumb molehill into a huge mountain, just because you’re too afraid of scaling the
real Everest in your life?

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t indulge your mental wanderings so much that they convince
you of a certain someone’s ‘hidden wants’ or ‘underlying motives’, Cancer, when there’s not
a whole lot of concrete evidence to back up such a conclusion. If you’re only talking about this
someone with other people and/or constantly thinking up ways to please or displease ‘em, you
are missing a key element in your information-gathering: an actual discussion with the individual
in question. But to ensure the discussion is productive, I encourage you not to lead with
accusations or suspicions. Remember: If you’ve been ‘inside your own head’ too long on this
issue, your instinctive starting-point may be several steps into a questionable scenario… which is
sure to catch ‘em off-guard, and likely to (understandably) spur defensiveness. Let the
discussion unfold more naturally, moving it along gently, meandering into and out of topics,
offering a lot of ‘I’-statement sharing. Most important, however, is to start out presuming
innocence on their end and/or a simple case of crossed wires. Your worries probably say more
about you than they do about anything anyone else is manipulating or concealing.

LEO (July 23-August 22): Let your desire for emotional independence propel your
strategizing on both short- and long-term economic (and/or other practical) matters. Use
your adamant refusal to lose that harrowing battle against your tough inner critic as your
core motivation for committing to extra-serious work efforts, Leo, so you can prove, once
and for all, you are able to adeptly steer your own destiny. These themes have already
shown up in your recent horoscopes, sure… but by mid-week, you’ll also have the
positively reaffirming arrival of benefic-maiden Venus to your sign, where she’ll stay
nearly a month, polishing your shine and increasing your outward profile. Under
Venus’s glow, you may finally begin to get more distinctacknowledgment from others
that they respect the work you’ve been putting in (presuming, of course, you have
been)—which should hopefully provide the necessary fuel to power a continuance of
these efforts. Though you’re ultimately doing all this for yourself, it doesn’t hurt to also
get noticed for it.

VIRGO (August 23-September 22): This is your week to lay it down, loud and clear, Virgo. Your
logic-led speaking voice is a force to be reckoned with, resonating powerfully with the passion of
somebody who (1) has thought long and hard about what you’re saying (rather than letting hot
air blow), and (2) deeply believes it to be a reflection of your true essence. Who could possibly
contend with that? Pause at that rhetorical question for a moment, please. Once you realize that
its actual answer would have to be ‘nobody’—that is, nobody could adequately contend with
your strength of expression—then perhaps you might glimpse the only potential downside of your




                                                                                           4/7
current power-position. You could come off sounding so damn well-thought-out-and-confident,
you leave no room for anyone else’s feedback… as if your facts, figures and opinions create a
totally watertight container that blocks out all input from the outside world. Yet, thanks to Jupiter
in Gemini, tapping into your best professional luck continues to require a relativeopenness to
alternatives, exceptions and grey-areas. With that in mind, treat your confident laying-it-down as
a great first step, not the end-all-be-all on this issue, with more to come…

LIBRA (September 23-October 22): Maximize self-preservation; minimize any makings of
a ‘big splash’. Lay low on the public front, and get the most from behind-the-scenes
moments of personal reflection. You need not give into pressures to formulate and/or
announce a coherent viewpoint, Libra, if you have yet to organically arrive at one… as I
suspect you probably haven’t. The astute among you probably comprehend that, for
you, there’s a good reason behind this still-unformed opinion: The issue is much more
complicated, particularly on the emotional level, than it may appear to anybody else—and
it isn’t likely to help your process to make these complications transparent to those who
may be watching and/or waiting. Your mindset will greatly benefit from further incubation
time… as well as from you dedicating some immediate initiative to resolving a few simpler
matters, wholly unrelated to whatever others might be expecting or anticipating from
you. Hold steady, so as to most securely situate yourself in the present moment, the
place from which our best realizations emerge most effortlessly, simply because we
aren’t trying to project ourselves anywhere else.

SCORPIO (October 23-November 21): Between this week and next, I suspect you’ll begin to
glimpse encouraging signs in your professional (or public-world) zone, courtesy of Venus’s
arrival to your solar 10th… though this should hardly be seen as an invitation to back off from the
mighty push and/or rest on your laurels. Keep on going, Scorpio, using every reassuring
response or bit of recognition as one more opening, into which you can masterfully insert your
will and create further opportunities atop those which are already manifesting. The sly
communicative advantage I describedlast week also remains yours: You have a temporarily
enhanced ability to advance your personally-desired agenda by instinctively wrapping it in
language that appeals to your audience. Be careful, therefore, not to purposely fool anyone into
accepting an incomplete and/or somewhat faulty understanding of what’s really going on. Such
maneuvers may get you what you want in the short-term, sure, but will likely cause a later
conversational upset (once the full story comes out) at a most inconvenient moment. Persuasive
as you are, you shouldn’t need to mislead in order to get anyone on board.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22-December 21): Sticking close to the ‘official party-line’ in
all public communications, Sagittarius, doesn’t necessarily mean that everything you do
must be precisely aligned with what The Powers That Be are hearing from your lips. It
does imply, however, that you ought not to veer a single inch from what has already been
accepted as fact or the agreed-upon premise in all relevant discussions… not only with
higher-ups, but with peers as well. Behind the scenes, you may be gingerly devising how
best to uncover, outdo or overthrow whichever elements stand in your path to a firmer
grasp on your own power in this situation, but nobody needs to know. Right now, it’s
still a quiet matter of arranging all the pieces in a row… in advance of a later moment
when those pieces will so conspicuously argue your point by themselves, you won’t




                                                                                               5/7
have to botherexplaining how the dots connect (and thus can more successfully keep the
proverbial blood off your hands). Loose lips at this juncture, possibly egged on by a
too-curious chit-chatter, will prematurely blow your wad.

CAPRICORN (December 22-January 19): Are you dauntlessly leading your team, Capricorn… or
just making yourself an annoying thorn-in-the-side of those who wish you’d shut your damn
mouth already? There is often a fine line between being (1) the service-oriented individual who
voluntarily takes on responsibility for rallying the troops, even when such a role threatens to
attract unpopularity, and (2) the preachy commander who claims to know what’s best for
everybody, and will not hesitate to let it be known. I wish you the interpersonal wisdom to stay
on the sympathetic side of this line, enabling you to still call it like you see it but maintain a
courteous tone that demonstrates consideration for all personality-types (including, yes, the
ultra-sensitive ones). I must again reiterate how the present astrological line-up—which now
features a three-way flow between Mercury, Mars, and your ongoing 1st-house resident
Pluto—tinges your every move with added emphasis and potency, regardless of whether you
intend to come across so strongly or not. You’ll have a hard time with attempts to come off
subtly, to downplay your interests or blend into the background… no matter what. Please keep
reminding yourself how that might impact your fellow community-members.

AQUARIUS (January 20-February 18): Lead the forward march of progress in your career
and/or other public-world contributions… and with that, Aquarius, please don’t let fears
of a gutsy reality-check conversation (and all the stark acceptances that might emerge
from it) keep you from continuing onward. While you needn’t achieve or agree upon
anything at this very moment (review last week’s edition), you really should stay actively
engaged in such sensitive talks, just to keep the process moving. The worst thing you
could do, on the other hand, is retreat into a dark corner of your own making, where your
most dreaded hypothetical scenarios will gorily play themselves out in your wicked
imaginations… leaving the menacing figure(s) at the core of your fears absolutely no
opportunity to show they’re not so menacing after all. On Thursday (Sep 6), Venus
enters your one-on-one relationship house (the solar 7th), where she’ll amp up your
persuasive likability factor—a pleasant astro-influence that’ll help bridge any real or
perceived gaps in understanding between you and another person. As long as you
display willingness to wade through these potentially challenging waters, that gesture
will go far to signal your ultimately fruitful intentions in their eyes… and it gets easier
from there.

PISCES (February 19-March 20): Though your interpersonal communications continue to be
strongly colored by emotion, Pisces, it’s becoming increasingly important that you valiantly
attempt to get your main point across… even under the likelihood your succinct phrasings may
get sidetracked or hijacked by your innate concern for not upsetting anyone. You can’t
legitimately stand for anything if you’re already ducking or bending at odd angles to maintain a
certain relational peace (which isn’t actually all that peaceful for you, if you’re battling yourself
over a belief you’re too nervous to express). To strengthen your backbone, then, you might
want to deeply consider what kind of person you’ll be implicitly identifying yourself as by
notfighting for what you know is right, just to ward off the anticipated pushback from a loved
one. By all appearances, you’ll have become someone willing to sell out your own integrity, in




                                                                                                6/7
order to show loyalty… in an alliance, mind you, that’s obviously fairly tenuous, since you
                                   apparently must sell yourself out to preserve it.




                                                                                                                                 7/7

The other energy that started in late August and goes through early October is assertive Mars moving through intense Scorpio. Normally you think of fall equinox as being a time of balance. When you combine aggressive Mars with the deep emotions of Scorpio, the light and the darkness can both go to extremes. And all of this is setting up Saturn moving into Scorpio on October 5th for the next 2+ years. If you have emotional healing to do, then it would be wise to tend to it now, rather than waiting for it to be put in your face. The beauty of this incoming energy is that it helps you stand in your power, because everything that makes you powerless is being stripped away. So do enjoy the light & easy part of the month, but do make inroads on understaning your changing values because you will be acting upon them very soon. September 1: Tend to important business before 1:02 PM PDT. The moon goes into its quiet void-of-course phase until it goes into Aries 1/7

Sunday morning has emotional re-activeness tendencies, so avoid acting out if a loved one says something in the wrong tone of voice. Sunday afternoon and Monday are much more fun.Tuesday and Wednesday have mostly pleasant planetary relationships all day, so mix business and pleasure. Mercy….: Mercury opposite Neptune; Venus squares Saturn; Moon in Aries Published by Priya under Daily Astrology and Cosmic Weather “Love is not a whisper or a weakness No, love is strong, so we got to get together ‘Til there is no reason to fight Mercy, will we overcome this Oh, one by one, could we turn it around Maybe carry on just a little bit longer And I’ll try to give you what you need” – Mercy, Dave Matthews Band ======================== Dear Friends, We are just coming down from the energy of a powerful Full Moon in Pisces, Mercury is now in Virgo and Venus squares Saturn later tonight. Here is a sneak peek at an excerpt from the September Cosmic Weather (that I am just about done working on,) covering the current aspects. If you would like to read and receive the full report in your mailbox sign up here for a one week free trial. September Cosmic Weather 2012, An Excerpt == “As we enter September we are still under the energy of a powerful Pisces Full Moon which culminated on Aug. 31, 2012. “This Full Moon was conjunct Chiron and Neptune, which may have brought deep psychological, subconscious wounds to the surface for healing. As painful as it can be to let go of illusions; be in no denial of the wounds or ghosts of the past. Then we can finally start to heal and create the reality we’ve always dreamed of but never thought possible. “On Sept. 1, 2012 Mercury entered Virgo and immediately made an opposition to Neptune. This may have had us searching for clarity through the fog. Given emotions were heightened it would be wise to wait till we have more information before judging something. “On Sept. 3, Venus in Cancer squares Saturn in Libra bringing us to a turning point within relationships and financial situations that have been difficult to say the least. “Saturn in Libra has been asking for a balance within relationships. And Venus in Cancer has been focus on security — in love and finances. But this may have also brought to the surface insecurities and difficult emotions. “A square aspect as its name suggests is a 90 degree angle, and we are turning a corner now. Only we don’t know what is around the corner until we have turned it. Wherever there seems to be a sense of restriction or external blockage, or that someone just doesn’t care — this is asking us to turn to look inward and look at what we need to resolve within ourselves and find inner peace so something need not be a fight anymore. “Currently the Moon is in Aries, and will be during this aspect which may be bringing up difficult emotions of abandonment, betrayal, anger, rage, rejection and pain to deal with. It may be tempting to want to fight for oneself, be selfish but in 2/7
  • 3. doing so we only end up destroying the very thing we want to love and nurture. “Any relationship is only as good as it meets the needs of both people involved. And as long as we are only focused on selfish desires or needs there will always be an imbalance which ultimately ends up hurting both parties. “Acknowledge what you need, where you need to pull back and where you need to be more giving. Recognize where your boundaries are and how far you are willing to go and where you need to draw the line. Then you can find the inner strength to re-balance a situation that has tipped too far in one direction.” With Love, Priya Monday September 3 – Moon Meditation: “I am undeterred…!” Moon in Aries: “They” say that what doesn’t destroy us makes us stronger. And thankfully there is not much that destroys us. Every day – and week – brings a new chance to be stronger. Today, stick to your plan and keep your intentions paramount, even if things don’t seem to be going your way. You might find it’s just a test from the cosmiverse. Get some Peace & Protection. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Practice caution with that particularly ruthless edge you’re presently wielding, Aries, but don’t surrender it altogether. This 8th-house-Mars energy is a godsend for thoroughly rooting out whatever may be obstructing a more comprehensive leap forward in your work life, like how sometimes a good session of vomiting is all we need to eject the toxins and gain ourselves a second wind. For its best effects, you must be prepared to do whatever it takes to get the job done right… which sometimes means ripping the whole fucking thing apart and putting the pieces back together in a sleeker, shrewder format (then sweeping up the huge mess you made along the way). This gut-wrenching process also leaves you feeling satisfied that no stone has gone unturned, no opportunity for improvement passed up, and no bit of rot left to further deteriorate. Naturally, however, you can see how this same energy can manifest quite treacherously, should it end up turned against someone you’re upset with and/or trying to get something from. Once you launch a campaign do whatever it takes to emerge on top, you might not stop until after your fangs are piercing their jugular. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): One person’s ‘emboldened demeanor’ (that person being you, Taurus) could too easily strike somebody else as acombative attitude. And though you could make a reasonable case for their perceived misperception being their issue rather than yours, it still presentsyou with a problem when attempting to get on the same page. Dang that dastardly Mars-in-your-7th, sowing the seeds of interpersonal dissent or discontent, regardless of whether or not you’re actually trying to argue or antagonize or poke in tender places. This week, his synergy with Mercury and Pluto only further amplifies the intensity with which you’re conveying your opinions (again, intentional or not), making it seem to those less-self-assured and/or circumstantially-grumpy individuals subjected to your words that you are pontificating and/or hunting for a fight. An astro-climate that’sideal for capably getting your point across in writings or projects or personal creative-work, then, also threatens to sabotage such efforts in any one-on-one relationship contexts. Aim your energies accordingly. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The rare few folks who get to see the intimate dealings of the behind-closed-doors, private you—likely, only your family members, best friend, significant other, and/or housemate(s)—will be receiving a larger-than-usual eyeful of your unresolved feelings this week. But the big question, Gemini, is whether (1) they’ll merely be bearing witness to your at-home ventings and purgings as caring spectator(s) 3/7
  • 4. or (2) they’ll end up as target(s) of your exacerbated wrath. If we go with the first option, I believe you’ll do the relationship(s) a great service, if you fully allow yourself to share the emotions… and to go into deep detail about whatever personal history of yours has invested this particular instance with so much rawness. (For a sign that loves telling stories, you Geminis have a funny way of omitting certain specifics that would better help us understand you.) However, if it ends up with the second option playing out, please be damn sure you are targeting the appropriate individual(s)—and not simply the one(s) you’re most comfortable with spitting venom at. Wouldn’t it be a bit unfair to turn some dumb molehill into a huge mountain, just because you’re too afraid of scaling the real Everest in your life? CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t indulge your mental wanderings so much that they convince you of a certain someone’s ‘hidden wants’ or ‘underlying motives’, Cancer, when there’s not a whole lot of concrete evidence to back up such a conclusion. If you’re only talking about this someone with other people and/or constantly thinking up ways to please or displease ‘em, you are missing a key element in your information-gathering: an actual discussion with the individual in question. But to ensure the discussion is productive, I encourage you not to lead with accusations or suspicions. Remember: If you’ve been ‘inside your own head’ too long on this issue, your instinctive starting-point may be several steps into a questionable scenario… which is sure to catch ‘em off-guard, and likely to (understandably) spur defensiveness. Let the discussion unfold more naturally, moving it along gently, meandering into and out of topics, offering a lot of ‘I’-statement sharing. Most important, however, is to start out presuming innocence on their end and/or a simple case of crossed wires. Your worries probably say more about you than they do about anything anyone else is manipulating or concealing. LEO (July 23-August 22): Let your desire for emotional independence propel your strategizing on both short- and long-term economic (and/or other practical) matters. Use your adamant refusal to lose that harrowing battle against your tough inner critic as your core motivation for committing to extra-serious work efforts, Leo, so you can prove, once and for all, you are able to adeptly steer your own destiny. These themes have already shown up in your recent horoscopes, sure… but by mid-week, you’ll also have the positively reaffirming arrival of benefic-maiden Venus to your sign, where she’ll stay nearly a month, polishing your shine and increasing your outward profile. Under Venus’s glow, you may finally begin to get more distinctacknowledgment from others that they respect the work you’ve been putting in (presuming, of course, you have been)—which should hopefully provide the necessary fuel to power a continuance of these efforts. Though you’re ultimately doing all this for yourself, it doesn’t hurt to also get noticed for it. VIRGO (August 23-September 22): This is your week to lay it down, loud and clear, Virgo. Your logic-led speaking voice is a force to be reckoned with, resonating powerfully with the passion of somebody who (1) has thought long and hard about what you’re saying (rather than letting hot air blow), and (2) deeply believes it to be a reflection of your true essence. Who could possibly contend with that? Pause at that rhetorical question for a moment, please. Once you realize that its actual answer would have to be ‘nobody’—that is, nobody could adequately contend with your strength of expression—then perhaps you might glimpse the only potential downside of your 4/7
  • 5. current power-position. You could come off sounding so damn well-thought-out-and-confident, you leave no room for anyone else’s feedback… as if your facts, figures and opinions create a totally watertight container that blocks out all input from the outside world. Yet, thanks to Jupiter in Gemini, tapping into your best professional luck continues to require a relativeopenness to alternatives, exceptions and grey-areas. With that in mind, treat your confident laying-it-down as a great first step, not the end-all-be-all on this issue, with more to come… LIBRA (September 23-October 22): Maximize self-preservation; minimize any makings of a ‘big splash’. Lay low on the public front, and get the most from behind-the-scenes moments of personal reflection. You need not give into pressures to formulate and/or announce a coherent viewpoint, Libra, if you have yet to organically arrive at one… as I suspect you probably haven’t. The astute among you probably comprehend that, for you, there’s a good reason behind this still-unformed opinion: The issue is much more complicated, particularly on the emotional level, than it may appear to anybody else—and it isn’t likely to help your process to make these complications transparent to those who may be watching and/or waiting. Your mindset will greatly benefit from further incubation time… as well as from you dedicating some immediate initiative to resolving a few simpler matters, wholly unrelated to whatever others might be expecting or anticipating from you. Hold steady, so as to most securely situate yourself in the present moment, the place from which our best realizations emerge most effortlessly, simply because we aren’t trying to project ourselves anywhere else. SCORPIO (October 23-November 21): Between this week and next, I suspect you’ll begin to glimpse encouraging signs in your professional (or public-world) zone, courtesy of Venus’s arrival to your solar 10th… though this should hardly be seen as an invitation to back off from the mighty push and/or rest on your laurels. Keep on going, Scorpio, using every reassuring response or bit of recognition as one more opening, into which you can masterfully insert your will and create further opportunities atop those which are already manifesting. The sly communicative advantage I describedlast week also remains yours: You have a temporarily enhanced ability to advance your personally-desired agenda by instinctively wrapping it in language that appeals to your audience. Be careful, therefore, not to purposely fool anyone into accepting an incomplete and/or somewhat faulty understanding of what’s really going on. Such maneuvers may get you what you want in the short-term, sure, but will likely cause a later conversational upset (once the full story comes out) at a most inconvenient moment. Persuasive as you are, you shouldn’t need to mislead in order to get anyone on board. SAGITTARIUS (November 22-December 21): Sticking close to the ‘official party-line’ in all public communications, Sagittarius, doesn’t necessarily mean that everything you do must be precisely aligned with what The Powers That Be are hearing from your lips. It does imply, however, that you ought not to veer a single inch from what has already been accepted as fact or the agreed-upon premise in all relevant discussions… not only with higher-ups, but with peers as well. Behind the scenes, you may be gingerly devising how best to uncover, outdo or overthrow whichever elements stand in your path to a firmer grasp on your own power in this situation, but nobody needs to know. Right now, it’s still a quiet matter of arranging all the pieces in a row… in advance of a later moment when those pieces will so conspicuously argue your point by themselves, you won’t 5/7
  • 6. have to botherexplaining how the dots connect (and thus can more successfully keep the proverbial blood off your hands). Loose lips at this juncture, possibly egged on by a too-curious chit-chatter, will prematurely blow your wad. CAPRICORN (December 22-January 19): Are you dauntlessly leading your team, Capricorn… or just making yourself an annoying thorn-in-the-side of those who wish you’d shut your damn mouth already? There is often a fine line between being (1) the service-oriented individual who voluntarily takes on responsibility for rallying the troops, even when such a role threatens to attract unpopularity, and (2) the preachy commander who claims to know what’s best for everybody, and will not hesitate to let it be known. I wish you the interpersonal wisdom to stay on the sympathetic side of this line, enabling you to still call it like you see it but maintain a courteous tone that demonstrates consideration for all personality-types (including, yes, the ultra-sensitive ones). I must again reiterate how the present astrological line-up—which now features a three-way flow between Mercury, Mars, and your ongoing 1st-house resident Pluto—tinges your every move with added emphasis and potency, regardless of whether you intend to come across so strongly or not. You’ll have a hard time with attempts to come off subtly, to downplay your interests or blend into the background… no matter what. Please keep reminding yourself how that might impact your fellow community-members. AQUARIUS (January 20-February 18): Lead the forward march of progress in your career and/or other public-world contributions… and with that, Aquarius, please don’t let fears of a gutsy reality-check conversation (and all the stark acceptances that might emerge from it) keep you from continuing onward. While you needn’t achieve or agree upon anything at this very moment (review last week’s edition), you really should stay actively engaged in such sensitive talks, just to keep the process moving. The worst thing you could do, on the other hand, is retreat into a dark corner of your own making, where your most dreaded hypothetical scenarios will gorily play themselves out in your wicked imaginations… leaving the menacing figure(s) at the core of your fears absolutely no opportunity to show they’re not so menacing after all. On Thursday (Sep 6), Venus enters your one-on-one relationship house (the solar 7th), where she’ll amp up your persuasive likability factor—a pleasant astro-influence that’ll help bridge any real or perceived gaps in understanding between you and another person. As long as you display willingness to wade through these potentially challenging waters, that gesture will go far to signal your ultimately fruitful intentions in their eyes… and it gets easier from there. PISCES (February 19-March 20): Though your interpersonal communications continue to be strongly colored by emotion, Pisces, it’s becoming increasingly important that you valiantly attempt to get your main point across… even under the likelihood your succinct phrasings may get sidetracked or hijacked by your innate concern for not upsetting anyone. You can’t legitimately stand for anything if you’re already ducking or bending at odd angles to maintain a certain relational peace (which isn’t actually all that peaceful for you, if you’re battling yourself over a belief you’re too nervous to express). To strengthen your backbone, then, you might want to deeply consider what kind of person you’ll be implicitly identifying yourself as by notfighting for what you know is right, just to ward off the anticipated pushback from a loved one. By all appearances, you’ll have become someone willing to sell out your own integrity, in 6/7
