The Planetary Alchemist is broken down into four sections. First there is the Introduction where I give my thoughts on the month ahead in summary.

Where Are The Planets Now* is an article updated monthly that tracks the planetary occupation of the signs, the direction of the planets and duration.

Calendar of Days with Influences is a journal that outlines the combining planets on the days they occur chronologically. By following this presentation we stay in tune as the month unfolds.

Finally, each sign has a forecast for the month starting with the sign the Sun is in now and progressing through each sign of the zodiac. Each Sign's Monthly Forecast is a series of koans that follow the chronological order of the journal of days with influences.

The sign forecasts delineate the positions of the planets for each member of the zodiac and suggest how they will customise specifically in each case. Understanding how the days are influenced generally as well as specifically helps us to make articulate choices and understand others as well as ourselves. It is advisable to read the forecast for the Sun, Moon and Rising or Ascendant sign.

The Table of Contents is linked to each section for quick access. It is possible to scroll down the whole document.

Links are included when something of interest needs to be shared.

20^TH SUN ENTERS GEMINI Happy Birthday to all Gemini! When the Sun is in Gemini, communication becomes effortless. For those who like calm; the collage of input can be perplexing. But for most it is an instinctive and enjoyable phase of activity. We speak up and share our feelings as thoughts flow from us more easily. It is a good time to get our point across, to attend to letter writing, to schedule public speaking and arrange short trips.  We will be influenced by this Air Sign which is a bundle of restless energy that thirsts for new knowledge and experience. New friendships or love relationships can be formed based on intellectual connection, ingenuity and wit. We are more flirtatious. The Gemini Sun also generates keen scepticism that can border on the cynical but is actually motivated by the urgency to know. This sign represents the Twins; symbolising our contradictory nature which curiously seeks consistency. Gemini's influence provides us with much-needed flexibility. Its energy fosters a playfully realistic attitude. Those who are in the Gemini Zone can get irritable if everyone is not moving at their pace. Another negative to watch for is relishing in idle gossip!

21^ST The sacredness of all aspects of existence is to be recognised and honoured. Life is a transcendent experience. We are becoming more and more aware of this universal oneness that encapsulates all life on earth. The commonality of experience rather than the separation of belief, culture or faith are emphasised. Some experience deception or disillusionment within their established religious context. Many desire escape or surrender rather than face the unknown. A few are likely to experience a dichotomy around the issues of spirituality and sexuality. If dealing with teachings of guilt and shame, or the experience of them with regard to sexuality, these teachings need to be dissolved and put into context. But we might rightfully question whether our commitment to a physical relationship is in conflict with our truth.

22^ND Two forces exactly opposite in nature are playing tug of war. One is contractive and the other expansive. But the contractive force is in a phase of restructuring the delimiting factors of our lives. So the expansive energy threatens to create a tipping point. To look at it more constructively, we become stretched out of shape in order to shrink into a new form. This is a shamanistic process. The tipping point we reach will clarify life structure, duty, obligation, responsibility and career due to the obvious. We desire to find the new order so we seek the safe and predictable within an ever increasing experience of acceleration. It is found in our own authority, in disengaging to be more free-spirited. Considerable expansion is possible without overextending. Boundaries are re-written, we renegotiate and reformulate. By seeking balance between opposing forces we will achieve considerable prosperity. Breaking away or running away may not get rid of the weight of the past. Self-confidence wavers with the restlessness of inner conflict.

24^TH GIBBOUS MOON The Sun is in Gemini and the Moon in Libra so true to the nature of the phase we will be information gatherers and avid communicators. The ideas will flow between people as they contemplate the current events. The financial sector is likely to be in the news. Some good strategies can pay off with investment recovery. But the old world order continues to crack and will be shaken more. The comforts of the past are slowly being taken over as things beyond our control dictate the terms. Whatever we have power over we are getting the rare opportunity to create our own terms regardless of the pre-existing status quo. Managing our chemistry during stressful times is very important. Getting proper sleep, nutrition, exercise is imperative. Taking an adrenal adaptogen and support, a good quality Omega 3 and other supplements to support the nervous system we can remain strong. Rearranging our commitments and conditional expectations will be liberating.

26^TH We are likely to have some very unusual and mind-expanding experiences. We become freer in our thinking and more adventurous.  We can, therefore, have profound insights into the nature of time and the role of the mind in shaping our reality. Paradox, contradiction or conundrum is the experience of increased awareness. That is until we can bring ourselves into context with our most cherished beliefs. Some things become incompatible or simply cease to have any connection to us any longer. Detaching from attachment is easier. We will make many efforts to integrate our experiences and insights into our belief system. We will not succeed to rationalise and justify our way to keeping the status quo. Whatever effort is expended it is in itself a mind expanding journey. Discomfort can make us productive. We grow through unusual means.

Initiatives can go in reverse and we can experience limitations in our accomplishments, if any sacrifice is required or a disproportionate balance of power exists; we will be questioning ourselves. There is validity in double-checking how much of ourselves we are devoting to any one specific direction. Our need for wholeness can create distress in this situation and this is actually clarifying and validating. Even though we feel we cannot get to our objectives we can agree to fulfill more of our other needs. Relationships can put this point of choice front and centre; so all demands of body, mind, soul; as well as interpersonal relations have to be equalised.

VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO The retrograde of Vesta took this planet back into Leo where we worked on being less perfect and more self-loving. We came to accept what we can do and what we must hand over to a higher power. Now direct once more Vesta re-enters Virgo, the sign of virginity which in old school terms means being unto one's self or self-created and self-contained. So we harness the ability to recreate and regenerate ourselves into a new being. We learn our life lessons. We do our work, our spiritual work. We get connected to the earth and our soul ship with all living earthly things. However this can be a bit of a workaholic influence so we need not to be too hard on ourselves and others or expect too much precision and perfection. Certainly we can better attend to details. Focusing on the imperfections of our significant other douses the flame of passion.

27^TH FULL MOON The Sun in Gemini faces off with the Moon in its polar opposite sign Sagittarius. This is a somewhat spacey event which is quite a relief considering last month's experience. Altered states can cause us to feel queer or off-kilter. But more generally speaking the margins are blurred, the edges are softened, the hard knocks become a bend in the road. We are in a transformational atmosphere where anything is possible as long as you believe. This is an event filled environment which offers recreational enjoyments. Relationships are good. Fate plays itself out. We get to see if our strategies are working or where they need to be altered. Fabulous meals can be consumed and profound insights exchanged. Be careful how money is spent, the sum total sneaks up to a grand total if following emotional impulse. Travel is enjoyable despite the security measures.

URANUS ENTERS ARIES 2010-2018 We will be re-claiming a self-reliant future following a period of reluctantly dealing with the real world. It is the harnessing of this new head-butting energy that will open the door and safely deliver us to a brighter future. We will discover some of the disruptive changes that Uranus loves to spring on us like undertaking major moves, suddenly changing stable relationships, and the demand to be a more authentic self. We will rediscover our inner-teenager, be introduced to some new technology, and receive suggestions on how to work with rather than against ourselves as we evolve and grow. Healing therapies are recommended in order to calm the lightning-fast physical energy and emotional overload that can overwhelm. 

Uranus was in Aries from April 1927 until March 1935 at the end of the roaring twenties, the stock market crash, and the beginning of the depression which brought many changes. People born during this time have it in their nature to thrive upon crisis and excel with innovativeness. The pioneering spirit generated now will help to transform the planet. Those born at this time will spirit new changes by taking unprecedented risks. By 2020, this cycle will likely lead to an economic Boom Cycle.

Uranus in Aries will infuse us with its originality and independence. It will fill us with ambition and energy and cause us to become very resourceful. We will more easily handle challenges that would otherwise send us running. However, people are a little impulsive, abrupt or hard to get along with, impatient and maybe even rude. We can easily get into argument over unimportant details. The Aries well developed practical sense of business and finance will come in handy. Combined with its inventiveness we can be unbeatable if we harness this energy.

Aries is self:- the me, myself and I sign. It is the first sign of the zodiac and this zero point has auspicious importance. This emergence of the planet of change into the fire element of Aries will inspire many to make actions for self that they would not have otherwise taken. The first sign of the zodiac indicates a new dawn of an era coming to our planet. The 90 day period from September 2010 to December 2010 will be a time of reconfiguration of our plans, visions and dreams so we can again get the show on the road. It will be showing us very clearly where we need to realign with the energies coming onto this world if we are all to continue living here. If we let go of who we thought we were these energies can create a new us and a new world.

28^TH This is not a good time for investment; there will be confusion and uncertainty. We can be victimised by misrepresentation. Gambling or taking risks with limited resources can be disastrous. It is best to avoid purely selfish concerns. We need to quiet the ego's drive for self-gratification through self-assertion so we can see beyond false happiness or living in a dream world. We can act on our new concepts as ideas surface to help us create new forms. Our ideals, sympathy and compassion are aroused. We turn inward when the world no longer meets our needs. Our interest in spiritual, religious and mystical philosophy will grow.

29^TH We have given thought to what we need to heal, where we need guidance and what we need to fix so now we are ready to walk that unconventional path towards our convictions. Entanglements have been loosened, deeply rutted patterns identified, conflicted emotions revealed and self-healing is well underway. But we are still dealing with the dichotomy of our maverick position. We need to balance ourselves by owning and honouring all parts of ourselves. The self is an open-ended exploration not an either/or choice.

30^TH SATURN DIRECT Saturn, the slow-moving Lord of Karma, changes from one sign to the next every two and a half years. In this process it is restructuring the foundations of our social awareness and karmic realisation as it travels through. Saturn's transition from one sign to the next underpins the arena of human consciousness we are working on but his cyclical switch between retrograde and forward motion through the zodiac is also highly significant. With the direct motion of Saturn, at the tail end of Virgo, it is heading back for Libra. Our choices will become more intense. Note the situations that have been repeating themselves. This forward movement will test the structures we have built to see if they are adequate for the fulfilment of our desires. Once back in Libra relationships, balance and mediation will once again be of importance.

As Saturn stations Direct, we emerge with a stronger sense and surer knowledge. A new authority of who we are in certain facets of our personality and redefined boundaries will help us to complete issues, projects and events quickly. The honest, responsible and hard working receive gifts and rewards. We need to reinforce or redefine foundations so a restructuring of our loyalty, accountability and duty can be built. Perseverance and endurance emerge from a new definition or form of responsibility. Much can be pruned to streamline conscientiousness. The last seven months have brought us to this moment of choice. Saturn, the teacher, moves beyond the degree of its retrograde phase by the New Moon September 8^th. We will feel accomplished by then.

31^ST When times get tough humans get going. When the world turns upside down and our normal work becomes redundant all we need to do is look to see how people's needs have changed and create a service for the new demand. Many a low income person has become successful this way. So wherever this applies, where needs have changed, it leads to wholesomeness to use our ingenuity. Neediness can be a bugaboo. It can be created by any number of things as well as a person's predisposition. If this comes up it will be good to unravel the source that created this lack. It is important to realise ourselves in a new way rather than questioning the past or others. We cannot hang ourselves on this hook forever. Emotional attachments have to be questioned and redefined. The sense that we have no control, or are controlled by others, can lead to eating disorders. The lack of nurturance, loving care, true understanding and acceptance of our nature causes us not to take care and love ourselves as much as we need.

NEPTUNE RETROGRADE We are entering the retrograde zone of Neptune where we can access a very laid-back ambient peace deep inside our heart and soul. It is easier to connect with the transcendent side of life and we will need to do this often over the summer. We are and will be more fully accepting of things beyond limited labels. We are cleaning the psyche, clearing out old issues and chasing down some clouds of confusion that come between us and realising our full potential. Psychic energies are stronger and this can cause some people to experience irritation or other non-descript states. We are picking up energies more easily, other people's thoughts and other such wavelengths. We have fewer protocols, we erect fewer boundaries and we are able to dissolve the few limitations that are left as barriers to bliss. A weakened immune system can get caught off guard. We are more susceptible to react to foreign substances, drugs, medications or alcohol.

DISSEMINATING MOON With the Sun in Gemini the Moon is turning back round the circle towards it again from Capricorn. The information we get about ourselves at this time we will not want to hear but it makes all the difference to our future if we gain the self-awareness. People are speaking their mind, revealing their opinion, reacting, assuming, judging and all from their individual perspective. The collective agreement is not functioning but at least most people are still stopping at the red and going at the green light. The earth is demonstrating anger in its cyclical processes that we call catastrophes when we live too close to the fault, volcano, or forest.

Earth's population will be going through many changes, all startling, unsettling and earth-shaking. But we must move through these times to reclaim our self-reliant future. Transitory processes, transformational experiences, karmic lesson-cleanse, dimensional shift, ascension, pattern and mindset dissolution, evolutionary mutation, metamorphic transfiguration, call it what you want we are rearranging our molecules. What happens to us is probably what we needed to do. Breakthroughs come of chaotic growth. If we are attached to anything that is inappropriate to our future and we have not been able to let go; it can happen now. There is a force that is calling forth whatever is necessary for us to reach our pathway of purpose and to be true to our innermost essence.

2^ND Fixing the child-parent relationship affects everyone whether it is in the moment or in hindsight. Thoughts about these issues surface involuntarily. We have to resolve any lack of nurturance that exists and learn to give ourselves the love we seek from others. Holding children back, not letting them grow up, withholding attitudes due to a lack of fulfilment in our own infancy it is all in the soup. Family structure creates the model and it does not matter what anyone else thinks, it only matters how we feel. It is difficult to get children to conform to convention, rule or expectation when the governing standards are in such a state of flux.

The atmosphere is like rush hour traffic; we are stop and go, wait and idle, go and stop. We are operating like the proverbial driver who has one foot on the brakes and the other on the gas. No sooner we get the green light so we can proceed with our ambitions, than we get caught in a bottleneck. Certainly there is adequate restraint and self-control to provide us with endurance, strength and persistence. But there are likely to be outbursts, frustrated noisy rants, and the need to watch recklessness. We cannot afford such behaviour when there are so many wild cards around. Strive for balance in caution with action; and or if in total abandon, with restraint. Dealing with the competition will take many plays.

4^TH CHIRON RETROGRADE During the retrograde of Chiron we magnetize and attract the healing and guidance we need. We go inside and heal the deepest darkest parts of ourselves that need our attention and acceptance to transform these into usable energy. Chiron is the doctor that heals the wounds of our earthly incarnation by bringing these wounds to our attention and facilitating their release through focused intention and presence rather than avoidance. We seek sanctuary to get busy. On the mundane level, old wounds are likely to revisit, either subconsciously in the form of memory or through similar event. This is an opportunity to release old woundedness so we can move forward with a greater wisdom. We turn large matters into small ones which will eventually lead us to wholeness. Chiron retrograde causes us to look within in order to heal ourselves. We can experience a major transformational shift on the emotional, mental and spiritual levels.

We are picking up so many signals, clues, body language and thoughts through ESP, intuition or psychic ability and simply because the atmosphere is porous we are easily given to misunderstanding. Being more sensitive and spiritually minded we can over-react with assumption, blame, guilt, judgment or opinion. The consequences of our past actions have submerged our ego so we feel discouraged, inadequate and burdened. Being more negatively suggestible we suspect untruth and deception which further clouds the truth. Physical energy is lowered so we must avoid undue stress on our body and mind. Since resistance is down it does not take much to set ourselves up for illness. If we are run down infection and fever can overcome. Known allergies are going to be noticeable and food issues can cause reactions. We can have a rogue adverse reaction to some prescription drugs due to this affect on our chemistry.

LAST QUARTER MOON The Moon is rounding the corner in Pisces and squaring off with the Sun in Gemini. The phase is winding down. We are past the make it or break it stage. Feeling a little wimpy perhaps, bruised, battered and wounded by psychological forces pushing our noses in our own stuff. We want to take a breather but the pace is not letting up. We are forced to comply with the life structure we have built for ourselves. The only person to cry, moan and complain to is ourselves. What can we do? We can change. It should be obvious what is working and what is not. We should be able to know where to cut our losses and where to make up for them. The more self-awareness we have the more belief we will have in ourselves and this makes all the difference. Just get yourself to the finish line. This phase reminds me of the commercial about bringing in old car wrecks for a trade-in special; pushed, pulled, towed and rolled however we can get ourselves there without causing any damage to ourselves or others is the main thing. We need to take it very easy on ourselves for now.

We are working with social pressure, our sense of duty and the desire for material security. Feelings of oppression, frustration, dependency, fear of closeness and intimacy or personal insecurities can lower our enjoyment of life if we give into them. Otherwise we can build form and structure in a more realistic way because of what we feel now. Two sides of the same coin. If looking for a mate we can be attracted to serious, older, responsible, parental types who can provide safety and security. We can work on our limiting belief system about partnership, marriage or commitment in order to release past paradigms and expectations. If a marriage or relationship has been in a state of decay, or is formed for practical and social reasons only, under this pressure it can collapse. Tension and distance develops. One or the other may decide to cut their losses.

5^TH JUPITER ENTERS ARIES Those with higher knowledge will find themselves in a leadership position as philosophy, education and spiritual matters require the most innovative practitioners. The door of opportunity is being flung open and we are meant to grab at the potential. We will muster an undeniable lust for life with straight-forward openness. We will have the force of fire to go after what we want. Reaching forward confidently at the edge of new experience there will be sparks of excitement everywhere we go. Energised by the new, a love of travel, or the most impossible challenges, we are trailblazing with dare-devil antics and leadership. Development has to happen fast or we get bored or even give up. Needing the big picture quickly and urgently we need to guard against missing the details.

Courageous acts of others will be inspiring to us. We will be open to stretch and grow into a greater sense of self. We will want to act on our initiative, start an enterprise, pioneer a new direction and push our way to the top through inner drive. There is a tendency to be too overconfident and careless where money and business is concerned if impulsiveness overrides practical common sense. If it is in our nature we must guard against being too generous or being lured into gambling. Business types may launch large ventures involving travel around the world.

But snobbery, greed, opportunism and superiority could also be on the rise. Pushy superiority operates from the ego. They may try to push the doors open or force the opportunities to manifest when there is not an opportunity opening soon enough and the time is not ripe. Kicking open the door with a battering ram personifies the wolf-like aggressive greediness that can surface with this influence. Those who care less about longer range goals will display a naked raw aggression that will be obvious.

6^TH The person we need to care about is ourselves. While it is not every man and woman for them self, self-preservation requires that we be unto ourselves. We need to think for our self. This is evident in our children who show an independent streak or want to do things their own way. But child-raising is also noncompliant with common standards as it has evolved to be more of an individual expression. Sympathy for the self and the unique journey each individual is on transcends attachments, family complexities and social pressure. Childhood issues in adults keep them out of the loop. Now we can obtain the objectivity and detachment needed to arrive at a position of indifference to the emotions we once wrestled with.

We are not labelling things, there are fewer boundaries and we are more accepting. Telepathy is heightened. We have cleaned out some psychic issues and are receiving more clearly. Being more connected to our inner self it possible to form a deep, strong and loving relationship. We are open to another's needs and feelings. The romantic energies are delightful, mysterious, tender, respectful and caring. Beyond illusion, a relationship that forms now is the real participation. Strong bonds of love, empathy and compassion are formed. Involvement in music, art, theatre or other creative and cultural expression nourishes the senses. We can talk sincerely about our ideals but also indulge whim, fantasy and imagination. Some might experience a calling at this time; to a ministry, spiritual path, devotion, social cause or mysticism.

If we do not feel nurtured, loved, protected and supported by friends, family or significant other we will have thoughts of independence and freedom. If we cannot have the care we think we need we choose adventure. We are deciding what we really care about so that puts many of us at the crossroads of life. Going inward to deal with such stressful conflict and choice we lose perspective and can exaggerate the situation. Our opinions are based on our belief of what is best. Having someone as an unbiased sounding board helps keep us honest with ourselves.

MARS ENTERS VIRGO Powers of discrimination and modesty that come with this sign are valuable, and the enhanced analytical ability is helpful in dealing with the details of bureaucratic modern society. We are infused with the feeling that every action should be considered thoroughly and every move should have some purpose.  Work is done more carefully, systematically and with attention to detail or tidiness.  Perfection is enhanced along with practicality.  An increased respect for tools and enjoyment in working with the tools of our choice will help develop our talent or craftsmanship during this period.  A strong sense of responsibility gets duties done quickly in order to get to what brings enjoyment.  Now we do tend to become more critical, analytical and righteous of our notion of perfection, intolerant, worrisome, over-fastidious, finicky and too conventional too.

7^TH With confidence, energy and independence returned we are ready for action but self-worth can still hold us back. Our situation can still fall apart. If for whatever reason we were not given the loving support that would help us bravely assert ourselves we are always second-guessing our choices. This is a time when we need to believe in ourselves. We need to nurture the individual within and develop our natural resources beyond the labelling definitions we are impressed with. If someone we cherish, like our children, appears to be threatened we will be fiercely over-protective and highly defensive. With no role model to follow we need to learn to love ourselves and find our initiatives worthy.

Abundant energy is bound to take a risk. We need to be careful not to expose ourselves to accident or incident by taking on more than we can handle and overextending ourselves in any way. This is time to finish up tasks in order to be liberated to take on new experience. Clumsiness and lack of control of the physical body is not an unlucky streak, just the results of trying to go too far too fast. Restless energies are impulsive, we cannot stay still but we get tripped up by what we have left undone. Eager for new experience and change, we lack the usual self-discipline. We take liberties, stretch our compliance to our responsibilities and exercise other modicums of freedom. It is only rashness that could be a problem.

Under this influence, however, others may feel we are putting them down if we try to take care of them. We need to recognize that our competitive instincts are in gear when we are in service to others. Also, we need to evaluate projects before we get involved with other people's unrealistic expectations in a way that leaves us drained and unappreciated. If we are able to evaluate our everyday habits in a positive way, we will see whether or not they really support our long term goals.

CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS After being in Capricorn for just a short time but creating quite a dramatic stir with all the catastrophes and disasters affecting land, sea and air Ceres will retrograde back into Sagittarius till the fall. We have been driven to develop better philosophies, beliefs and actions with regard to our Earth. We need to be more purposeful in how we live on the earth and use the earth's resources. We need to move forward to develop our collective consciousness. Take the time to explore and expand our horizons both mentally and physically; or take a long journey or take up serious studies. We need to find faith and belief to give meaning and purpose to our life direction. We will be fed by knowledge and wisdom and nurtured by adventure. Self-acceptance is the antidote for aimlessness.

We are prone to rash, impulsive, sudden, and unexpected actions which makes us accident prone. We rush things as we charge ahead at full speed. We want to change everything yesterday, for the sake of change and to get out of a rut. We will not take criticism easily and will want to be independent of people who challenge the way we do things. We fight for the freedom to do our own thing and thereby gain respect from others. It is as if we feel we must prove something to someone or we want to convince others by our actions. It is possible to push to physical exhaustion by doing more than others and taking on too much responsibility for others. Other people will impose if we permit it. Impossible demands may be physically punishing or unnecessary.

8^TH EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION ~ REDEMPTION Although these two planets {Jupiter and Uranus} are bound to come together once every twelve years or so; it is because they are conjoining at the Aires Point; 0 degrees of the zodiac that they are supercharged. Two other 0 degrees planets oppose each other from Virgo and Pisces at an oblique angle to this conjunction {Mars and Chiron}. Also Juno slips into Cancer hours after these planets conjoin adding its energies to 0 degrees at its acute angle to Jupiter and Uranus. Of course Ceres, the dwarf planet all so important in the earth changes we are experiencing has now hit the critical degree of Sagittarius. So it is not a normal reunion which alone is always pretty spectacular. Here are some of the catch words; surprise, reform, freedom, chaos, sudden opportunity, leap to escape, unreliable, inconsistent and change. These are high frequency energy waves.

We will experience the unexpected or desire to recapture freedom from responsibility. Idealism, new thinking, ingenious solution, technological advancement, social or global change and major transformation is spawned. But so is the revolutionary cause. Travel opportunities can open up or close down as we have seen already. This is an acutely angled learning curve too; no doubt the engineers working on the oil leak will attest to this. Learn fast and learn quick putting all of our intellectual resources to work. These two highly original and highly unconventional planets can achieve great success through invention or innovation and electronics.

We are more adventuresome and spontaneous; we will not be afraid but rather get more creative at problem solving. Sudden changes in fortune and restlessness helps us to investigate new avenues of thought. Our desire for freedom will cause us to be a great deal more tolerant of others' lifestyles. We may choose not to notice discrepancies we would have noticed in the past. We want to leave others to be as they wish just as long as they do not interfere with how we desire to be. However, we do have an increased tendency to fight for rights.

High speed deconditioning will fast forward us to egalitarian response patterns as we are attempting to adapt in the moment. New and different choices test our perceptions and loyalties. We are mutating, reassessing our place in the world and involvement with other people and things, trying to maintain compliance but being rocked out of our habituation. A merge has to occur between perception and need. . Frustrations and dissatisfactions with one's marital or parental role, childhood and children will surface. This is meant to shake us out of our old response patterns.

JUNO ENTERS CANCER Primary needs in relationship are of utmost importance. Emotional closeness, bonding, warmth, nurturing, sensitivity and sharing are essential. We are empowered by these things. Food also becomes an important factor. It is a ritual and strong emphasis in home life. Emotional rapport is essential in partnership. If empowered through love coming to us in these forms we are capable of a multitude of achievements. But if caring and nurturing are not there and we cannot depend upon our mate; then withdrawal or moodiness can result; or the opposite, clinging dependent behaviour. A needy person can feel they are not getting enough of the form of love that they crave and they manipulate the person of their choice through feeling. Extended family connections can be problematic, or the partnership dynamics can lead feelings of insecurity. If this hits our chart the wrong way our partner will whine and complain constantly. Those looking for a partner will want one to help them build family and home.

BALSAMIC MOON The Moon in Taurus is just behind the Sun in Gemini. We are on the verge of rebirth. The Balsamic Moon requires us to let go, release and go within, as we reach the end of the current Lunar Month. Loosen up the tightness, stress and tension through filling up our spiritual vessel. We need to put the brakes on our creative drive for a few days to allow spirit to re-fuel us and recharge our creative batteries. We need to step outside our struggles and ambitions. By giving our mind a breather we allow it to once again be spontaneously inventive and inspired to act. Healing ourselves body, mind and soul was never more important. This is a time of preparation for a New Cycle that starts June 12^th. Spend some time in meditation, being grateful or just quiet. We need to recognise how important it is to resource our spirit once a month. Just be and let it be. Even if things are not going the way you want them to; loosen the grip on making them happen. This is a gamble, but it is worth winning ingenuity in the place of using power to make things manifest.

We want more than is reasonable in our present state of entanglement or woundedness. Our freedom is found in self-regulation and self-expectancy. It is possible to attract the healing and guidance that we seek. Transforming blocked energy into a useable form we gain objectivity, overcome fear and cultivate the courage to be honest, trustworthy and strong. The walking wounded will get a chance to realise the source of their woundedness. We are moved to fight injustices and have great compassion for the oppressed. We are revisited by past life patterns and habitual repetitiveness but we may over identify with them and lack the objectivity to follow other impulses. But this is non-conforming energy that co-creates the rules wherever challenge exists. Competitive instincts, assertiveness and aggression are a cover for inadequacy. Passive behaviour conceals inner rage and hostility. A clash of ideals and values can be an issue. We are drawn toward an interest in education, information collection or dissemination, ideals and ethics, truth and meaning, travel, or anything which expands people's physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual horizons. These energies could signify a surgical procedure too.

9^TH We all can benefit from integrating individuality and independence into our model of committed partnership. We can acknowledge the supportiveness of our significant other while letting them be themselves. Our relatedness principles are being tested to see if we are honouring ourselves in the relationships that we maintain. We are in the mode of rebuilding, creating, modernising, changing and universalising if not revolutionising relationship role models. In short, how we relate. Existing relationships are tested for relativity; especially where conflict or demand interferes with our personal freedom. Each person needs to be personally responsible for themselves and autonomously self-sufficient to bring integrity to a relationship. If necessary we have the self-will to break away from rules and roles to adopt personally relevant forms. But many will express their discomfort with traditional role expectations and have difficulty conforming to social norms. New relationships started now have issues. Expect erratic and unreliable commitments, fear of commitment, confinement or restriction and frequent separations when this is the case. Singles are attracted to unconventional original rebellious types who can turn out to be erratic, irresponsible or weird.

We are not under pressure; we are just sifting our subconscious for metamorphic change. Inner dialogue gives the answers that map the way. What we thought we were going to do was never our destiny so we accept personal sacrifice in this light. We are becoming a more cohesive concentration of self which gives us the fortitude we need to make the choices we do not want to make. While we narrow our goals we increase empowerment and seek wholeness with every vestige of our being. Service, passionate devotion, fearless pursuit and personal power are harnessed by these regenerative energies. The sanctity and sacredness we seek to uphold brings illumination and healing. Wilfulness broadens awareness and furthers personal renovations. There can be big changes in how things are organised. This directly affects large corporations, financial planning and government too. Confrontations with those seeking power or position will be invasive and manipulative if not insidious.

In order to build our life appropriately the universe sometimes has to jog our awareness. The freedom to explore alternatives comes up against the need or desire for the traditional status quo to be maintained. At this point we can experience the conflicts between our ideals and our reality in relationship. This is a constructive challenge between people, one that can build better relations. Differences in approach to life, philosophy, or moral code; injustices, religion, inequalities, frustrations, resentments and despair can be shared in a mutually agreeable disclosure. We certainly are becoming aware of the imbalances in inter-relations while Saturn is still in Virgo. The down side, or negative expression of these influences manifest in legal complications between partners; in arrogance, self-righteousness, infidelity and extravagance also.

MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI When Mercury is in Gemini it gives us the opportunity to use our mind to its fullest ability. Reasoning power is strong and curiosity intense. The mind is quick, diversified and full of ideas; with any luck it will be versatile. Focus is on communication and the dissemination of information. The exchange of viewpoint and opinion easily becomes articulated debate. Mercury in Gemini can be especially astute when it comes to arguing or making a point. We skim the surface of a broad number of subjects and interests to produce some lively and far-ranging conversations about what's going on in the world.

Gemini is ruled by Mercury, a social sign and planet that enjoys wordplays, puns and negotiations but is easily distracted. Simultaneous involvements can be embraced broadly but not deeply, few ideas are studied to a full understanding or tasks completed but much information can be introduced. The mind wants to be active; studying, reading, researching and exchanging with others. Write letters emails and journal entries, start a writing project, make short trips, get together with friends, or take a course to brighten the mind. If mental power is directed toward defined objectives then success can be attained in the direction of choice. If we have wanted to communicate to someone or share something with our friends now is the time.

10^TH Expect some things to be presented as "one time only" situations. We can experience unusual expenses and expenditures. We may come to know another's story for why they were unfair to another. Excuses for being cavalier with another's rights are flawed. Some people have a great story about how and why their relationships are different or exempt from normal relationship roles and rules. This is a time when relationships can hover around and finally reach a point where it seems there is no turning back. We can unblock energy and transform it, realize our woundedness and disentangle ourselves from what holds us back from greater wisdom. We are challenged to work and grow together into an expanded spiritual understanding and mutual healing. Growing through relationship is the process. It is possible to make transformational, emotional, mental and spiritual shifts. We never know who we might be a role model for.

Creativity, intelligence and perceptual learning are enhanced with these favourable influences. They favour cultural and spiritual sensitivities also. So to resolve inner conflicts, especially those between the heart and the head, it will be easy to make new plans and formulate new approaches. These self-integrating energies are focused on transmission and actualisation of creative ideas. But we are highly resistant to disapproval, offensive behaviour or negative expectations. We will not adjust if we do not fit. Father issues can be worked on. The different aspects of our being enrich and strengthen each other. Some people will use these energies for living life like a chess game.

12^TH NEW MOON The Sun and Moon conjoined in Gemini signals the beginning of a new lunar month. Beginnings are always important but this one has an enhanced agenda. It is all about us. That means every individual needs to be attending to themselves. Revaluating, rethinking, honouring our essence, dissolving inappropriate attachments, detaching from old memories, the past and karmic past is what we are up to. We are rebuilding ourselves from the basement up and we are planning on following our destiny to do so. This is a very favourable suggestion anticipating positive results. Rebirth suggests death of the old as we are empowered to follow the beat of our own drum. As this is a universal influence we are raising our consciousness collectively by attending to our own individual flame.

13^TH Major transformational shifts are happening on the mental, emotional and spiritual levels. We will have help finding our way through changes, with meeting those turning points and for facing challenges. Inner resourcefulness helps us to move through blocked energy and to transform old scripts and inner dialogue. The irresponsible optimism of the powers of attraction and faith bring resolution albeit in strange packaging. Which means it may not be in the form we expect. We are infused with an enthusiastic, faithful, wise, expansive and spontaneous influence. We unravel our tangles with past life patterns so we can move forward with greater wisdom. No doubt we will realise a new perspective. Our ability to help, heal and teach others is enhanced.

What we care about, what we need, what we understand and have compassion for is all important. We work on mother issues and our ability to nurture ourselves. We break down any complexes that block our energy. Selfless giving, unconditional and absolute love, devotion, compassion and empathy are being infused in our impulses. We will learn about these things. A most important aspect is the transcendent side of life which translates into the peace of our heart and soul and the cleansing of our psyche which makes us very sensitised. Increased psychic sensitivity helps us to sense and feel others in the process of understanding them. Artists and actors enjoy enhanced creativity, the development of new styles or the inclination to explore new mediums. Aid for foreign countries may be a popular cause.

14^TH VENUS ENTERS LEO Venus gets loud in a flashy, flirty, stylish splash of color and warmth and performance in this sign! We can indulgethe need to have rose petals strewn about us. If anyone does this for us we will give them the world.  We apply ourselves to artistic, creative or decorative endeavours. Also this is a good vibration for partying, entertaining and romance. Events have a natural rhythm and people are complementary. Important social events can occur for children. We get together with people who make us look good, are well-known, or popular. We like to know the people who are at the centre of what's happening.

This is a time of major heart opening. We liberate our hearts from inhibitions or beliefs that have kept it closed. Respect and pride are important now and we easily suffer from a bruised ego if embarrassed in public. We easily rebuke friends who do something we do not approve of. We do not easily compromise with other people's desires and tend to want our own way. We need to be responsible for maintaining give and take between friends.

In terms of finance, Venus in Leo tends to be a big spender so we need to be careful that we do not get carried away. We can also reinvent our values so that they are rooted in our own unique, experience. Clarified values are shared with others to connect and link-up with like-minded souls who support our individuality.

We have more fun in love; indulging our childish romantic fairytale side, contemplating Prince Charming, or our Goddess of love. The passion to create excites us to create something special with someone we love. The downside is the potential to be in love with the self and one's egotistical nature. Being in love with giving love can make us feel worthy.

15^TH There will be opportunities for gain and success. In tune with our subconscious forces and morphic direction we are gathering fortitude and strength while we are transforming and growing in this climate of reform. We cannot refit ourselves to operate in any way that is not right for us. Take time to understand what motivates and what does not. We need to see ourselves outside of the mold of society in order to consider our long-range objectives. Whatever is beyond our control or happening to us is filling us with sustaining power in whatever way we require. So in a sense certain aspects of self and society are in a state of gradual decay while simultaneously being rebuilt more strongly. Using this commanding energy for selfish means, for greed, avarice or power will sow the seeds of our own demise. This power is not meant to be used for our own benefit. If it is used for the good of ourselves and the good of all it brings personal empowerment.

Creativity and social awareness take a firm stand as humanity becomes more aware of the causes that need action. Deriving the most effective course of action may mean changing plans or leaving ideas behind. Be alert to the hidden agendas of others. Progress with regard to gender equality and creative independence will be made. Increased courage and confidence inspires us to act on our convictions. Two other reactions are also possible depending on our choice. Either we want to work with others, to cooperate and consciously please others; or we find the demands of another as an affront or limitation and become defensive or aggressive. This could mean it is in our best interests to move on. But we may want to get along with others, work cooperatively in a pleasing way but still feel more headstrong about what we want to do and do not want to do.

CRESCENT MOON The Moon in Leo is just slightly ahead of the Sun in Gemini. In the sky we can see the slight sickle of promise. This picture is all about restructuring our beliefs and life more to suit our consciousness development. We want to purge the impressions and compulsions of old and reformat our spirit's passageway to accomplish more altruistic aims. Healing ourselves mentally, physically and spiritually involves Father, Mother, siblings and all known inter-relations who have had an influence over us. We act on our inner convictions and devotions and dissolve the critical analysis, rejection and disapproval of the dysfunctioning status quo. We meet with the work of our destiny and make progress toward our self-realisation. This is a port in that journey. We are securing safe harbour.

16^TH Extremes will be experienced in relationship but only to the point of pushing us to take necessary action. Energies are intense and secretive because each of us is working on our inner dialogue. Together with others we may face death and transformation. But the issues of power and domination can result in attitudes and power struggles that are destructive to relationship too. Power issues or other issues of obsession, possession, abuse, jealousy, resentment and hatred can break out if they lie dormant. We could be forced to make decisions we do not want to make. We are sensitive to offense which leads to conflict. Mostly, however, this energy can be used for self-empowerment and transformation. Mutual fulfilment is always preferred over selfish self-satisfaction.

These are strategic and managerial energies and fairness is the tactic. Partnership with others will enhance the creative process. The capacity to work with others will produce resourceful accomplishment. But disapproval, compromise and a hidden agenda can strike a discordant chord. Consciously tapping into this androgynous energy will balance the polarities of yin and yang which in turn will enhance cooperation. We sort out any conflict between heart and head so we can have a greater sense of inner harmony. Mutual encouragement and support is useful in the development of good relations. This combination has the potential to produce beneficial joint plans or marriage. But for whoever is not privileged with equality and reciprocity there can be fear and abandonment because of those who have the upper hand. Negative expectations create offensive reactive and resistant behaviour.

It is very challenging to integrate the need for achievement and success with the need for emotional support and nurturance. We are reconsidering our needs and source of care. Old mirages of sympathy and understanding are flushed out. Responsibility and nurturance has to culminate or come together in a more meaningful way for us to continue. If we are getting the short end of the stick we are likely to be miserable. It is time to give ourselves the love we seek from others. Also to understand people who withhold nurturing because it is too "sentimental" or "impractical."

The notion of mothering and nurturance is still in limbo. We consider how we are giving in order to receive loving support. What is our pattern? Children can be torn between parents due to conflict. Married couples confront the tension of their different desires around children. Inexplicable fear can cause intimate bonds to break or pull away. Domestic responsibilities or obligations become a burden or hardship. Frustration and difficulty is experienced through loved ones and family members.

Past and present issues dealing with children, health, education and parental attitudes need to be sorted out. Demands and pressures placed upon us may be unreasonable or unfair. We may be left to our own resources to deal with situations. Draw boundaries, set limits and give serious consideration to unhealthy or one-sided relationships, these may end.

17^TH The inventive and artistic processes are enhanced and intellectual expressions seem to go right to the core of the subject. The masculine and feminine balance of yin and yang is altered. These are positive influences. New strategies develop around the discovery of another person's agenda. We are being empowered and fortified by the choices we are forced to make. We cannot compromise ourselves in the conflict between head and heart.

Group work facilitates transformation, regeneration, self-empowerment as well as addictive, abusive or obsessive behaviour. The compulsion is to transform and grow. Nothing is controversial or taboo, we are drawn to delve into the idea of death and life after death. Negative reactions toward disapproval, criticism or negative attitudes indicate we are working on father issues and other metamorphic changes.

The mind is made more powerful. It can create ideas that will influence others. Dreams, visions, meditations and inspirations link us to what we need to resonate with.

18^TH FIRST QUARTER SQUARE The mutable sign chord is struck by the Moon in Virgo and Sun in Gemini squaring off against each other. Yes this means things are changeable. Emotions are vacillating as are commitments and opinions. We are delving into some pretty rich material within our psyche. Serious considerations for our earth will be a part of humanities learning curve. The concept of travel becomes more and more restricted and selective.

There are doubts cast upon the economy and trading activity may be steady in the market. There can be minimal gains but probably more sell-offs. It is a good time to take stock of how we are investing our income. Ideas change in the wind. Power struggles can be provoked. Ever-changing strategies move with the chaotic trends. We are forced to figure out what we are doing wrong.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI Happy Birthday one and all! Fate points the finger to what you will do this year to improve your status and make peace in your life. Where you have not yet met the criteria you will be catching up. Relationship is a high point. Concepts and beliefs are brought into greater definition, creation is peaking and you are gestating great leaps forward by investing in yourself. Health issues are a priority, especially teeth or bones and weight. You can be at odds with yourself over miniscule matters. GIBBOUS MOON This brings very enjoyable familial relationship and a sense of pride. You feel they are a reflection of your worthiness. A few conditional details are a bother to negotiate. The unpredictable, unusual and mind-expanding happenstance blends well into your potential development. You might have to back up a few steps because of things you had forgotten, not realised or due to what the moment creates. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO The spotlight is on you, whatever needs fixed you probably broke it either directly or indirectly. There is effervescence to life that directs you to what is at hand. FULL MOON This is an opportunity to see yourself in the reflection of others and to know yourself better. Changes or fluctuations in finances will turn out for the better in the end although it has you concerned. URANUS ENTERS ARIES You are remaking yourself, letting the old conditions expire and empowering the truest essence of yourself beyond reason, logic, rationalisation or justification and this brings vitality to your relationships. This is not a good time to invest or make financial decisions about your home, real estate, your business or land development because you cannot see far enough ahead. It is likely you are caught in a dilemma, between things, vacillating with what to do but the answer lies within you if you own and honour your whole self. SATURN DIRECT This shift will give you the sense of self-authority and self-knowledge that you need to redefine your boundaries and set future directions. Getting dragged back into the past or being questioned about yourself by someone emotionally close to you will encumber your mind with their neediness. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE All doubt needs is a seed to be planted and it grows into a paralysing conundrum. You actually need to build boundaries or filters around you so that the influence of others does not dissuade you from deriving your own intentions. DISSEMINATING MOON Follow your own counsel, individualise with self-realisation, autonomy and personal fulfilment. It may mean you do not look for approval from a higher authority. There is a disconnect between you and your parents or family, children or in-laws. It can be good if you are detaching from memories of the past or inappropriate encumbrances. Life feels like bumper to bumper traffic but the bridle on the accelerator is purposeful, there are cross-checks and double-checks occurring so accept these gracefully. CHIRON RETROGRADE Major shifts toward your self-realisation albeit somewhat painful emotionally and requiring great stamina physically will be actualising. Maintain your autonomy when it comes to decisions and actions; or the advice of a partner and you will steer through confusion. LAST QUARTER MOON You may be healing from something, a temporary illness or injury. Not being able to move ahead quick enough is a challenge of adjustment. There are unknown factors, take time to get the details. Relationship needs to be formed for the right reasons for a commitment to stick. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES Excellent opportunities can develop with the influx of these positive energies. You can be self-made within no time at all. Increased income potentials lift the spirit. While there is pressure coming at you from all sides and an inner restlessness that will not be appeased, you need to step back and contemplate what rings true for you before proceeding in too many inappropriate directions. The incidentals that you all too often wrestle with can find a solution in self-preservation that brings a healthy indifference. You are less prone to your usual predisposition, bias or personal persuasion which helps to liberate you from old patterns and erroneous regulatory confinements. If you do not feel loved, cherished, supported, nurtured and protected by the people who should love you, you are likely to go your separate ways even if it is family. MARS ENTERS VIRGO While this is challenging, you are ready to rise to its call and work hard to develop your ambitions. Vitality and energy should improve. You believe in your initiatives and feel they are worthy. Good news, unexpected event, friend or associate will bring the new experience you need. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS You will become more purposeful in how you live your life, how you use your resources, how you cooperate with the earth and what brings meaning and purpose into your life direction. Temperamental actions can lead to accidental mishap, reacting to someone or something, getting too haughty or exerting yourself to convince others for example. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION ~ REDEMPTION Expect the unexpected, accept the conditional as it is self-created and let life unfold around you peeling off the layers of Karmic attachment to get to your organic essence. Your deconditioning is occurring subconsciously, there is a focus on self-development, expanding perception, deconditioning and reassessing according to personal choice rather than the control and influence of others. JUNO ENTERS CANCER The primary needs of your marital relations and marital home are reconsidered. Old narrow minded short-sighted conditional expectations will morph into a more relaxed and congenial growth pattern. BALSAMIC MOON This one is for you! Use the prophetic insight you gain to come to deeper understandings about the emotional disturbances in others that affect your life. Cleaning out the karmic closet is a good project too. Many people are wrapped up in their inert woundedness and trying to transform that blocked energy. You can help those who are closest to you simply by being unconditionally supportive and non-reactive. The paradigm of relationship is individualising, becoming independent from the normal persuasions and this is a delightful and fortuitous trend for you to realise more of what you need. In order for a new destiny to dawn you need to realise that today has just changed all the plans you thought you had. New commitments need to be forged and old conditions allowed to fade into history. But this is where the conflicts surface that you need to be mindful to juggle into a new order. Explore the alternatives rather than fight to maintain the status quo or traditional order. You cannot have it both ways and you need to process this on your own terms. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI This will activate your mind to quite high levels of busyness. But you are efficient, functional and happily engaged in getting things done and clearing the mental to do slate. The relationships you have in your life meet the point of fate and destiny. With the ones you can grow through it is easy to see what is meant to be, but those you have to disentangle from, those that block your energy, hold you back from greater shifts are more difficult. As you are a social human you have lifetimes of inconsequential associations which albeit entertaining and diverse; they are not the consistency you need to make strides forward on your spiritual path. It is time to cut the cords of all non-essential relationships and allow what will be to be. There will be many conflicts between your heart and your head in the spiritualising of your dimensional shift and of course your future karma is what you are creating now. No one should interfere with this being your choice; whether you are right, wrong or indifferent. NEW MOON So this can truly be a fortunate new starting point for you, a good time to promote yourself and move forward with confidence. Resistance and rigidity are your obstacles to completing major transformational shifts. But where you will experience transformation in the most is your work or career. Your psychic sensitivity comes through as a pervasive sense of knowing at the deepest core of your being. VENUS ENTERS LEO These are good vibrations for connecting you socially with people who can help you with your new ambitions. While you wield a certain style of power you might not relate to it as such. But at this time you are coming to understand empowerment versus power for its own sake. Also you are learning how to use it wisely. It is possible for you to become iconoclastic and headstrong about what you want to do and do not want to do. CRESCENT MOON With this phase you can make great strides ahead. You can make contact with people in positions of authority who can help you. Be in a positive frame of mind as much as is possible. Extremes push and pull you around; probably issues to do with relationships in your life, maybe those involving power struggles or conflict but the purpose is self-empowerment and transformation. You come to know who is in league with you and who is not. This is useful information for time management purposes. Coming to understand other people's agenda, their strengths and limitations empowers you to make fortified choices and executions. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE Fix, repair, mend and then expand on your goals and objectives you are in position to approach the people needed to set your plans in motion.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI Inspiration comes on the wings of this shift of the Sun's energy. You can turn old possessions into new value. Loosening your attachments to material objects occurs however you allow it. The transcendent qualities of the current influences move you into a philosophical or spiritual dimension where old viewpoints turn into expansive value added broadmindedness. While you feel grounded yet able to both expand and contract where necessary it is other people who are stuck in their ways that will cause you grief. GIBBOUS MOON The difference in value systems sets you apart from people, even those you have known for a long time and have been very close with. When things are out of people's control they cannot conceal their true nature. You come to understand the role of your mind in shaping your reality. Revisiting the past with new awareness unlocks future pathways and helps you create new mind patterns that will approach the future with fresh enthusiasm. New personal initiatives force you to reconsider how much of yourself you are devoting to other directions and objectives. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO This is definitely your spiritual work, to find the virtue in more self-concern. To understand that if you are not fulfilled you can hardly fill others up. It is like trying to save a drowning person if you are not a strong swimmer. FULL MOON If there is too much pressure or stress and you are caught in a contorted or impaired position it can cause you digestive complaint. That is if things are more than you can handle, so best to take a pause, slow yourself down if not stop if this happens. URANUS ENTERS ARIES It usually unnerves you when things change as they must and usually do as this is one constant of life. But with the right attitude you can foresee the need for change in the world's order and understand that development brings stages of awkward growth. This is a good time to perhaps recover from any investment loss but not to invest. It is an excellent period to purchase your lottery tickets, play bingo, go to the horse races or enjoy the sport of speculation and gambling through other means. It is good fun and you can be lucky. If you could fix your friends, associates, colleagues etc. it would be done by now. At this juncture it is time to understand their humanity and individuality. Background, family history overlay themselves on the essence of a person causing them to be untrue to themselves. SATURN DIRECT It is an act of separation to realise yourself as separate and distinct from others and that they are in no way a resemblance of you. People have karma for a reason; it leads to dharma. In this way you come into understanding of how people create their reality, this helps you to choose better options for yourself. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE There will be much fear about the future as usual. But taken into context and understood from the universal point of view you seem to tap into the underlying transcendence. DISSEMINATING MOON Although you usually are an emotional person it is uncharacteristic of you to have such an objective and detached viewpoint. This is actually insight into creationism. You have an easier time than most signs in dealing with family issues, childhood or parental insufficiencies and standards. Homogenised to the gene pool you may not understand the shifts that others need to make to be themselves. Slow and steady progress assists you with most things. There will be a blockage if the direction is not right for you. CHIRON RETROGRADE The old memories that do surface for you are greater than your ability to stifle them into compliance. In revisiting these impressions you are destined to sort out your limitations. But not before you over-react because of your clouded mind and negatively suggestible state. LAST QUARTER MOON Subconscious thought combines with analytical reason and produces a lucky outcome. Go ahead buy your lottery tickets but do not miss out on the opportunity to have constructive ideas. What you are putting up with in order to maintain the status quo will become very obvious and this gives you a chance to rethink the situation. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES You and your significant other, a close friend or work mate will start something new and rewarding although it takes extra effort to get you there. Personal improvement is a theme and this could involve appearance, weight, style of clothing, hairstyle and make up. Youthful wishes, dreams and hopes carried through life and lived out in all appearances fade away and are replaced with the starkness of eventuality. This is enlightenment. You cannot stay where you do not feel wanted or cared for, where you do not belong. MARS ENTERS VIRGO You know what you want to do but seem held back, perhaps afraid to try or maybe afraid of failure and rejection. The old experiences you have had hold you back, but this is now. Support comes from others when you need it and helps you to carry out your intentions. But you are easily knocked off your graceful centre if there are any bumps. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS Guilt can be a major factor in throwing you off course. It does not have to be anything in particular just a free-floating tendency to feel this way. Going back over what could have been done, how things could have been different should not be the place you dwell. With so many things on your mind and multiple tasks going on simultaneously with the unforeseen parachuting in at whim you need to be cautious and safeguard against causing yourself an accident. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION One of the biggest realisations you will make is about other people, their value, their worth, what you have overlooked or undervalued. High speed deconditioning of how you relate to other people, of who comes into and through your life at this time, will change your personality as you let go of old measuring sticks and standards. JUNO ENTERS CANCER While this planet is in your sign you can expect all relationships to go through a reconditioning as you re-write your agreements and contracts to other people based on your new found enlightenment. BALSAMIC MOON Refreshing the way things are by changing how they have always been takes a bit of consideration, contemplation and sensitivity. You are better able to accept fate or destiny and even change. The only barbs that can hold you back is woundedness, unresolved trauma or pathological complexes that contend you are not worthy, acceptable or good enough. Integrating independent individuality into your model of valuable attributes is a big test of your ability to change and grow.  This is a huge break from tradition. You will be the poster person for metamorphic change and personal empowerment gaining strength and confidence from the people who support you. The brain is like a computer's hard drive, it stores programming, training, protocols and lots of junk and very often it gets bogged down and needs to be reformatted. Well, get to work. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI This is very fortuitous for your current agenda. The metabolism of the subconscious is speeded up and the synapses are freely associating so this is an excellent time for you to be working on your inner consciousness development. It is time to cauterise the wounds, amputate where necessary, eliminate the negative and rewrite history. You can make breakthroughs on father or patriarchal issues and enhance the feminine within whether you are male or female. Conflicts between the head and heart, or issues do to with masculinity are the more difficult work to be done but that is a positive goal. NEW MOON This an exceptionally good time to decide to make a fresh start, to clean up your act, to reacclimatise your inner self to a more honest expression of your own truth. You are up to the challenge of these transformational shifts, turning points and other changes. But it means finding alternatives, different choices, inventing new approaches, adjusting to changing circumstances and adapting to the evolution going on all around you. Excessively strong psychic sensitivity should give you strength rather than fear so you can claim your own freedoms while understanding the morphic shifts of others. VENUS ENTERS LEO You feel the later days of spring turning toward the summer solstice. This time of year gives you pleasure as well as much to do. Your heart is open and flourishing. You can feel stronger and more certain or confident about yourself as you move through the times. With so much exposure to the global experience your awareness has been sprouted in a multitude of new directions as you simultaneously loosen your grip on the way things were. CRESCENT MOON The need to change conditional expectations of family and kin is unavoidable as your family is growing into a different circumstantial relevance. Other people will stretch you to extremes through your relationship to them but this is because you are not inclined to visit these expansionary processes on your own accord. There will be conflicts for you to work out as what must be hits a discord but in the end things will balance harmoniously. This will be especially true if you have children who are becoming more independent of you. Finding a way to fill the holes left by the care giving that is no longer required you look for alternative sources. Armed with an unusual sense of courage and confidence the compulsion is to grow beyond the negative, to follow a dream or inspiration and to find activities to relate to. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE Because relationships are changing you can feel awkward in situations where you used to feel you fit like a glove. In a sense you are coming to know yourself better through this disturbance of your comfort zones.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI Just the spice of life that you have been looking for comes your way. There will be adventure, romance and a change of heart that makes your wishes come true. It is important to honour what you hold sacred or true while at the same time realising how you may have attached yourself to other people's ideals and made them your own. Left to your own discovery you would have the opportunity to choose more because of your own foundational beliefs. You reach a tipping point in your self-development and so you must choose to take an uncommon fork in the road. The self-punishment it takes to reach this liberating decision is dramatic and theatrical. GIBBOUS MOON As you breakthrough the fear and paranoia the brightest of inspirational uplifting insights can give you a sense of liberation. Paradox, conundrum, hypocrisy, contradiction and other unusual mind-expanding experiences unlock your consciousness to step out of the past and create yourself in your own image. Exciting fun-loving maybe even romantic times are in store. Good luck can accompany your leap of faith. There is a healing process that you can be a part of not only for yourself but your whole family. All you need to do is make your shifts. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO Be careful, you can be super critical of others and have high exacting standards for yourself too. Not everyone is as capable as the other but when delegated to their expertise or talents they excel. Think about how high you raise the bar. FULL MOON Financial prosperity can come to you from many directions. This happens because you believe in yourself. Good friends and romantic partners enliven the social pace. URANUS ENTERS ARIES You either make a break from your current employment because of a greater purpose or you make a breakthrough because of diligent work. Deconstructing the paradigms adopted from society and others you have a rare opportunity to realise your own standard. This is not a good time to invest in the market but it is an opportunity to believe in your dreams. Relationship plays a large part in this. You have come to know what is important to you and who makes you feel whole. There is excellent self-development occurring for you. SATURN DIRECT This will assist the redefinition of self that you are processing. Try not to project idealistic or romantic images upon others, try to see them for who they are, not fit them into your design. You can be upset with people because they are not being who you want them to be for reasons that are personally important to you. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE It does not take a psychic to know that you are disappointing yourself not other people disappointing you. Disillusionment opens the door to enlightenment. Work on your consciousness and emotional attachments. DISSEMINATING MOON Remember the reference to the glass, being either half full or half empty. Apply this philosophy to your critical analysis, hopes and wishes. You can make things worse for yourself by brooding. The child within will be needy and wanting while you put on a brave face. Stop and go, forward and backward; you find it difficult to gain ground and may find you are going round in circles. CHIRON RETROGRADE You may feel wounded by relationship, there may be distance between you and you are feeling lonely and asking fate if there is another way. Picking up on too many suggestions and being suggestible you can misunderstand and be over-reactive because of sensitivity. LAST QUARTER MOON You need a friend who is detached and objective, rational and cerebral to help you through the emotional minefield. Your ability to do what you want to do is held in suspension while you look for ways around the social pressure that keeps you where you are. You have to earn your way not expect others to give it to you. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES Purchase your lottery tickets or indulge in other speculative ventures as your luck is a spontaneous act. If you need investors this is a good time to work on that. Straddling the old and the new you are drawn and quartered into self-preservation mode which dissolves the limitations, boundaries and obstacles. Thinking outside of the box gets you past the illusion of blockage. You want to go where you feel nurtured, loved, protected, supported and independent too. MARS ENTERS VIRGO Passion and ambition turns into deductive action, thorough planning and constructive self-reproach. Convinced of your worthiness you proceed undaunted by the negative suggestion and doubt of others. But do not take a risk with limited resources. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS You will withdraw and submerge yourself in what you desire to make manifest, staying away from those who would not make you feel whole. Tried and true, loyal friends are there to support you and urge you to act. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION Your breakthrough can bring you out of confinement to the past paradigms that run your life. These relate directly to the role models exampled for you by your family and parents. Deconditioning the scripts, programs, running dialogue and adherence to an inappropriate value system are in the works. JUNO ENTERS CANCER The conditional and unconditional factors in your life are going to be analysed to find balance but it may root you out of some of your comfort zones with a good purpose. BALSAMIC MOON The school of hard knocks consciousness occurs when the emotions are not ready to expand with the spirit into a new paradigm of thought. Loosen up, bend and stretch, become elastic, ultimately flexible but not stretched and you will allow what needs to, to dissolve away while you grow into a broader understanding you are not quite ready for. Integrating individuality and independence is usually your forte but deficiencies in self-actualisation can occur due to many influences that have affected you in the past. You are squeezing out the errors and omissions in your foundational belief system; realising the unhealthy, idealistic, dysfunctional or deluded ideas you have adopted from those who raised you or knew you during your formation. A bit of exciting brainstorming will occur. The status quo is imbalanced, always was but when accustomed there is no question; so this is a good time to promote your new initiatives. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI A little self-therapeutic analysis will go a long way toward healing your karmic wounds and fulfilling your fate. Unusual conditions surround you; through other people's stories you unlock yourself from past woundedness and transform that energy into a positive shift. Father issues are first and foremost in your perceptual learning, conflicts require new approaches and self-integration rather than controlled manipulation of others. NEW MOON It is as if you are developing a whole new base or basis for operating, perceiving or understanding and to do so it takes dissolving the standards and structures of the status quo. This transformational shift lifts the veil from your eyes so you can see yourself as others see you. Mastering the differences and perceptions will take some analysis and sensitivity. Intuitive sensitivity also helps you to scrutinise your origins, your parents and family for root causes of your patterns and habituation and apply them to your on-going restructuring. VENUS ENTERS LEO Very pleasant vibrations increase the enjoyment level of even the most arduous task. They inspire you to be positive in body, mind and soul and to work on self-development as a spiritual quest. Juggling conceptual analysis of past, present and personal relevance or value is a morphic process meant to aid your transformation beyond the mold of your beginnings. Employing both creativity and social awareness you are effective in changing your ideas and leaving old agendas behind. This transfiguration of your conscious personality will improve your cooperative interactions with others. CRESCENT MOON Reinventing yourself can be a lot of fun but it is a little bit of work too and well worth it. Be careful of expenditures because you could go to extremes thinking of the most ideal or needing to feel good about yourself. Just remember that you are not who you were and you are not who you are going to be; just like a butterfly you are in the process of becoming. Plans are made around a significant relationship. Old desires, wants, sentiments, notions of nurturance and your frustration with the lack of fulfilment in these areas are the issues needing to be sorted out. Old standards, rules, rigidities and limitations are being traded in for more flexibility and universality. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE Something important is happening around relationship, it is fated or on your pathway of destiny, meant to be and fortuitous but you have many worries and issues to work out before you will see it this way.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI You get a chance to sort out the major relationships in your life; put yourself into perspective and gain some liberated self-authority in the process. There is progress at work but also a lot of pressure. Separating from what you are yoked to and what you undertake of free will and volition is your way of honouring what is sacred to you. Many times over the past couple of years you have considered what you must do and now as you sit on the brink of taking action the tug of war within you needs a tipping point to make things final. GIBBOUS MOON Destiny will play that card for you giving you no option but to do what you must. It is difficult but liberating in the end. Someone's health, mental or physical can be an issue that weighs in. Highly unique and original experiences will attend your everyday routine. Serendipitous adventures of mind and body are mind expanding. If your initiatives are outworn, redundant, narrow in scope or a thing of the past you will set to work developing new goals and objectives. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO The desire to get to work, attend to details, finish up projects of the past and work on yourself becomes very strong. FULL MOON  Letting go, or detaching from a standard, can receive assistance from the spontaneous combustion that makes unusual things happen. Being angry, frustrated, galled or outraged can heat up the liver and cause you not to sleep well. Milk Thistle is good for the liver, adrenal support and increased calcium will help the sleeplessness. URANUS ENTERS ARIES If you find yourself bridled with responsibility that is not your own and not your work you will feel compelled to change your circumstances. The nature or focus of your work can change as well. This is not a good time to get involved with a new investment but you may be able to divest yourself of holdings for a profit. Some might need a longer term. A lucky streak comes through for you. A close friend could be the vehicle. All fingers are pointing back to yourself when you consider what you need to fix or how you need to structure your life more around yourself. You get positive support from significant others. SATURN DIRECT Just the grounding and stabilising you need to launch your new endeavours, make an investment in yourself and get working on things left in stasis. The ability to take care of other's needs or their ability to fulfil your needs becomes a deciding factor in the necessary. Significant relationships are distant or temporarily separated from you. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE The messages you pick up from other people are cross-signals but it would be best to trust your intuition rather than what is presented. Everyone has their reasons for not revealing something. You learn to control your own thoughts through experiencing the transparency of the thoughts of others. DISSEMINATING MOON What you know and what you can do are at odds with what you want to do. You learn important facts that are helpful to your progress and achievement but there are obstacles. It is because you have changed, taken a diversion, so you have to regroup. Becoming the adult too soon is the message coming from the energies wanting to remedy the child-parent complexes. Learning how to play can be fun. The serious side of life can put the brakes on and apply the emergency brake if not wedges to keep you from even budging. But those with goals and ambitions can make great strides between baby-steps. CHIRON RETROGRADE During this period you will clean the closet of old agreements and re-write your contracts, even to yourself. What was the agreed to expectation is now destined to be remodelled to be more wholesome.  You are picking up thoughts psychically; energies, flashes of future vision and you do not want to believe them. LAST QUARTER MOON Shift your focus toward closure and tying up loose ends so you can get involved in new activities. Social pressure, sense of duty, dependency and material security keep you in the narrow framework that they create. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES A weird feeling, like you missed the deadline or forgot something; perhaps that the opportunities have gone by seems to tug at you as this energy slips out of your polar opposite sign. You have put so much care and attention into other people, your family and work for instance, that you have forgotten about yourself, what you need and how to care for you. With the boundaries between things dissolving, and definitions becoming impressionistic you can let yourself off of many hooks so you can be free to follow your destiny. If you do not feel wanted, like you belong, or that people care, love or support you then you will have thoughts of liberating yourself from those situations. Deciding what you are about puts you at a crossroads. MARS ENTERS VIRGO The Calvary has arrived! This energy will renew your spirit and give you the physical drive you need to accomplish. Enjoy the uplift and momentum. Although you tend to be self-critical you feel quite good about your worthiness. You impress others. Bridle your tongue in certain situations where information is better left unsaid and unknown. Not everyone is ready for consciousness development. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS Old habits will keep you from taking good care of yourself. Being caught in a rutted groove with narrow parameters sacrifices your needs. If you are all caught up in your mind, absorbed into what occupies your focus, you will not judge your actions, size and leeway appropriately and cause yourself an accidental mishap. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION This may seem like a whole lot of work for you to move into self-sustainment and autonomy but certain happenstance will assist you to go in the direction of your evolutionary purpose. Deconditioning your automatic response patterns mutating your perceptions and reassessing your loyalties will ground you. JUNO ENTERS CANCER Inter-relations of any sort; transpersonal, personal, work, friendship, and colleague, past, present and future will be affected by the work you do with your relationship paradigm now. BALSAMIC MOON The predisposition toward prophecy of this phase is working with you but first you need to expand on your principles and desist with emotional pathology. This can be a very difficult growth period for you. All the forces are working on you it seems. Your entanglement, woundedness and self-expectancy are blocks in your energy that need to be cleared so you can operate at full dynamic force. This empowerment is needed in the years to come. It is easier for you to integrate individuality than it is independence. Cultivating more self-actualisation will lead to increased self-realisation. You are at the forefront of the movement toward metamorphic change by accepting that old goals are not going to be realised and that a new plan must evolve from the reorganisation of the contents of your subconscious. Mutually agreeable disclosure of your differences from others helps you to let go and explore the freedom of alternative pathways. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI This planetary occupation of Gemini will be challenging and character building for you; it leads to the dissolving of fears, paranoia, obsessions, subjugation, abuse and self-denigration. You gain a detached and objective insight into the plights that plague those you have difficult relationships with. Certain ultimatums or crossroads are unfair as are the roles and rules that reach a turning point from which you do not turn back. You will pull yourself together like a pull string ornament that mobilises all your parts into a cohesive acceleration. It is time to resolve those inner conflicts between heart and head, or involving your father. NEW MOON There is a shift taking place, you are on a new track and working to put distance between you and the conditions of the past by taking on more authority. You are a work in progress. The transformation shift occurring now is majorly applying itself to who you are which may not be the facade or mask others are familiar with. You cannot pretend to be what you are not and will not put up with abusive conditions; influences beyond you compel the circumstances to be beyond your control in order to move you forward. Work wants to take all of your focus but you are exhausting yourself in the process and not paying attention to all of your needs. VENUS ENTERS LEO Loving yourself more is a good place to start with any self-improvement. But in your case it is what it will take to bring the best out of your potentials. You have strong powerful forces at your disposal and it is your responsibility to use them wisely, not just for your own benefit but for the better good of all concerned. Responsibilities in the home occupy a huge part of your focus. You have pretty much weeded out the bad investments as far as jobs, clients or causes and friends who would be causes and your command in this way exhibits your newfound sense of worthiness. CRESCENT MOON The subconscious is stimulated in such a way that you are intuitive, inspired, envisioning and prophesising the future's forecast. You are charged with the responsibility of your own consciousness development. Discussions or verbal exchanges in your significant relationships can become intense to the point of extreme measure and unsolicited attack. Diffuse most any situation before it reaches critical maximum. Your pride is at stake, you may wish to try to control others; you are protecting yourself from being wounded but are perched on the edge too gingerly. You take criticism, negative reaction or disapproval personal; entirely the wrong way. But it is necessary to draw boundaries around yourself to assure that your needs are protected. By trying new techniques and using new tools to deal with emotional issues and personal responsibilities you are better able to gain leverage over the situation and bring it to order. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE The challenge lies in allowing yourself more slack. By tolerating yourself more you can ease up on how you handle others.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI Reorganising yourself continues to be the matter of importance, it is your work. Soon you will have more responsibilities and important decisions to make so use this time wisely. What is most cherished, sacred and of great value to you is instinctual and it comes of your inner essence. You will not betray yourself. The imbalance of energies can put you into a dramatic swing between extremes but realising that you are meant to reduce as well as expand can help you sort through the vacillations. GIBBOUS MOON You come to terms with relationship and know what you want but feel lost within that direction simply because of the change. The unusual, unexpected, profound or uncomfortable will lead you to your destined point of choice. The decisions you need to make fall into place. New decisions may become the old redundant choices you discard in preference for a better end result. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO Now it is time for you to go to work on yourself. This is a complete and total renovation from the inside out. Then pretty soon you can set new goals. FULL MOON This is not easy but what you need to know will get flushed out which helps you to move ahead quicker and improve your income. URANUS ENTERS ARIES If you wanted to make changes to your life this is the energy you have been waiting for. The vortex of transformational influence is working on your innermost essence from which all things stem. Get ready for the next seven years! Have no fear, remove doubt as an obstacle, believe in yourself and activate those powers of attraction rather than ruminate. If you still have investments to recover now may be the time, otherwise it is still a long term hold. You know what needs fixing, you have several ideas as to how to make this happen and you are inspired with self-confidence to get on with it. You are aiming for prosperity consciousness. SATURN DIRECT Your conscience will nag you if you are not doing what you think you should be doing, no one else, it is you nagging you. You are getting serious, becoming organised and gaining respect for your abilities as you increase your earnings capacity. Branching out into new areas, getting training or becoming experienced has you a little self-conscious. Try not to compare yourself with others. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE Be inspired to follow your heart and soul, or your dreams. Your instincts are well honed and you are picking up on things more easily. DISSEMINATING MOON You must bring your realised self to anything you do and this is the secret to getting a promotion, a raise, or simply getting ahead. You learn about children's individuality whether they be your own, another's; or the world's child. The values you were taught as a child and raised with do not reflect a true image of who you are. Your psychology cannot get into gear, its stop and go inclination can be frustrating and dissipating. CHIRON RETROGRADE You are growing beyond the woundedness of the past, flexing your boundaries and expanding on your horizons of possibility. Picking up too many signals, psychic messages, ESP and being swirled around on the whirlwind of the current atmosphere you need to manage your mind. LAST QUARTER MOON It is not easy to focus on completing things when everything seems to be charting its own waywardness. Social pressure comes from your friends, but you are not as committed to these relationships as you were. You are more focused on practical achievement. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES There is quite a bit coming at you all at once which is overwhelming and perplexing but take your time, take things in stride and they will level out. Responsibilities, obligations, duties and expectations that have always been your requirement will take a back seat to you realising your self-development. If you hold onto the old then you are the only person standing in your way. The cosmos says it is time to dissolve these old patterns. You will eliminate the situations and people who do not fuel and feed you; who are not ready to step up to responsibility and those who lack motivation in life. MARS ENTERS VIRGO This will stimulate the subconscious, activate your inner drive and light the fires of ambition. Being too critical of yourself lowers your self-worth; believe in yourself and you will make progress. Knee-jerk reactions can be over the top and once the action has been taken or thoughts voiced they cannot be taken back. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS This is an opportunity for you to increase your income by seeking more and having confidence in your qualifications. Impulse purchases can be your downfall. You feel it will improve how you feel and like to have something others do not have but it is a false notion that brings temporary satisfaction and leaves you with the expense. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION Hold onto your hat as you traverse the extreme chop that are the waves of your life experience. Certain happenstance is meant to be, destined to throw you a curve ball from which you will alter your life course. Unfortunately you are not in a prime position for deconditioning, reassessing egalitarian choices; there is a degree of avoidance that keeps you in stasis. Everyone will proceed at their individual pace. JUNO ENTERS CANCER Now the metamorphic movement to deprogram patterns and restandardise away from control that would disempower you can begin in earnest. Get going on your new life structure, change of personal, new living conditions and accepting the fate of relationship. BALSAMIC MOON Your emotions have to catch up to your assertive self. You have to take up the reins of responsibility which places pressure on you emotionally. Let things take time to work out. You need to free yourself, liberate yourself, explore some adventurous new pathways and disentangle yourself from woundedness of the recent past before you can recognise the deeper stuff. Perhaps you have to let fate and destiny sort you out for a little while, pushing and pulling you in as many directions as you have a predisposition for. Remember your job is to find balance and that is usually found in the middle path. Consider your two extremes of approach and then modify them to a compromise. You are sifting through your subconscious for kernels of suggestion as to what your pathway of purpose is meant to be since it is not what you thought it would be. It will be the full force impact of conflict that twists and turns you into a different shape and this is more likely internal. External conflict will reveal differences, frustrations, resentments and other injustices if you choose to disclose. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI This can either be really good for you, giving you energy and forward momentum or it can spin you round in circles with the result of getting nowhere. As always it is up to you to decide how you are going to use these influences. You must heal your subconscious mind, your memories and your innermost self before you will be good for anything else. Rethinking your strategies is a good place to start. NEW MOON It is possible for you to kick-start your new directions with conscious assertion. That is organising yourself and taking action. Your mental circuitry is about to be rewired in order to handle the increased vibrations that your evolutionary transformative process will create. Yes you think differently and receive new stimulus. More than before you will be sensitive to your own needs, your spiritual progress and how you use your mind when thinking about yourself. VENUS ENTERS LEO Whatever happens in friendship, relationship, association, connection or contact be it network or social circle accept it as meant to be or fate working itself out so a better destiny can be realised. Self-empowerment is more important than any competition or competitive involvement. You can get ahead easily now as opportunities are opening up for you rapidly. It is likely that you find both work and home are tending to be more cooperating and congenial; getting along for the sake of everyone's best interests. If anyone is not capable of this they will move on. CRESCENT MOON You are gaining momentum, progressing much quicker now and feeling validated by your actions. Putting your own needs first helps you to be more fulfilled when it comes to being there for others. Most of the extreme experiences in relationship are behind you but the results of them are what you are working with now, empowering yourself and making decisions you have to make. You are probably processing much too much about old relationships to be interested in looking for someone to share your life with or changing partners unless they are negative, highly critical or compromise your integrity somehow. Frustrations and difficulties {with children} are easily handled in a new and more relaxed climate of flexibility. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE Letting go, detaching, eliminating and putting behind you all the hopes, wishes and emotional expectations of the past you are moving onto new terrain and can create new friendship or relationship in your life to better suit you.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI There is some tension in this energy field for you as it makes things too busy and you do not like it when people are darting to and fro. The airwaves get busier and mail increases too. There is a mountain of tasks to attend to, paperwork and such. Other people can be distracting. Your sacred space is becoming more important to you and you ask your significant other to honour it. Positive changes come through others. While you can sense there is a cross-current in the energies that bring out the paradox and dichotomy, the optimistic and the pessimistic view of matters; you are grounded and in control. GIBBOUS MOON Consciousness gets a boost, you are flushed with spiritualisation as you avert the temptations or detours and keep on track. Startling and profound realisations improve your future prospects many times over. The choices you are making at this crossroads of your life are leading to breakthroughs. But it may seem like you are peddling backwards sometimes because you are acclimatising to your newfound self and some of the old self has to adapt. When all parts catch up you recognise the shift. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO Lightening up old intensities, recreating the rational and emotional self and bringing wholeness into your thoughts will do wonders for your enjoyment levels. Have more fun, get out of your head and into your heart and soul, think less and do more. FULL MOON There is nothing to feel guilty about, you did not do anything wrong, you are feeling like you will be faulted. This flushes out interesting patterns for you to reveal yourself to yourself and become stronger in these ways. You will get your point across to others. URANUS ENTERS ARIES The world is about to change overnight, do not fear this; it is not meant to be intimidating. We are moving toward our self-reliant future. Meditate to ground yourself within the flow of a new tempo of wavelengths. This is not a good time for you to trust travelling overseas or into countries where there is any chance of political or other strife. You can be inspired to write. It is imperative to you that you fix your mind. Rephrasing old statements, scripts and repetitive attitudes, rethinking old mind-sets, standing down from battles you would normally fight, all this will help you heal and feel free. SATURN DIRECT This is a good time to make a serious wish, to set an intention, to make a five or ten year plan that is open to adaptation. Your earnings can increase but mostly there is an abundance of news. Mutate and grow is your mantra, bend and flex, bob and weave, duck and roll and rearrange those psychological complexes into simplistic understanding. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE Sometimes it is not good to know too much by osmoses. You do not enjoy knowing another person's real thoughts while listening to their words. It helps you strategise and negotiate better but you must not abuse this responsibility and privilege. We all have thoughts we hope are private. Understanding this helps you lighten your own mind's occupation. Lots of current events, movement, travelling about and some adventures! DISSEMINATING MOON When you are sharing some very important and probably enlightened understandings with someone of like mind be wary of who can overhear, they may rain on your parade. The primary ingredient that will fix your child-parent and family issues is self-worth, self-love and self-respect. Separate yourself and your life from these family issues, stand apart and alone as the good person you are. We are all ultimately alone when we are born and alone when we die. If we have but one friend, a true unwavering friend, we are blessed. If we do not then we must be our own best friend. We are all orphaned from our true spiritual home until it is our time to return to review our progress. Become a spiritual warrior. Living in the world created by battle scars you will hide yourself away because of what no one else knows. CHIRON RETROGRADE This is a very tender time when woundedness, emotional hurts and feeling rejected, abandoned or not feeling like you belong will hurt to the quick. Like a fever that just keeps building till it breaks, you need to purge these things that are not you but attached to you because of the way other people have been toward you. On top of this psychic receptivity is at an all time high so the many criss-crossing signals, mind bleeps, weird moods, and atmospheric mumbo jumbo that races through your mind is just space junk. Stop doing battle; it is not worth the fight. LAST QUARTER MOON This is the phase to focus on completion, letting go, breaking down what is not working, moving onto what functions and building a different self-direction. Social pressure is malfunctioning; what was expected does not exist in policy, protocol or foundational agreement. It is changing and so are the rules, opinions, judgements and standards. The facade of societal keeping up appearances is breaking down. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES Social order is free-floating and you need to find yourself so you can go out and play in the more liberated, unfettered, everything goes reality. Although it is not in you to do this, you must put yourself first and foremost and care for you fiercely and protectively so fate and destiny can help you actualise an empowered you. Definitions are blurred, borders and boundaries are permeable; everything wants to melt away that does not belong to you so do not be emotionally attached to your pain. There are fewer labels, pigeon holes, categorisations to get trapped by but first you must free yourself of these projections of the past. MARS ENTERS VIRGO Cleaning the subconscious closet of old anger, frustration, oppression, rejection, failure, irresolvable conflicts and other negative debris is necessary. The most important relationship for you to work on is your significant other because this is where you need to work out the reasons why you do not feel fully nurtured, loved and protected. Emotional blocks must be rationally understood so you can change yourself to arrive at a better end result. Without self-worth life just seems to fall apart. If there is nothing you can do about a situation that has gone on way too long you need to abort it, amputate, and cut out the source of the problem. Even family obligations can be handled differently just by deciding to amputate. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS Are you feeding yourself the right thoughts, memories and other information to arrive at a well-cared for place within yourself. Because everything gets bundled up inside of you when you get upset you do not make any sense to other people because the issues have been too long stored and the other person is not relating to the same memories. Too much comes out all at once and overwhelms them, confuses them and makes no sense to them. Understand the disjointedness of all that you store within when you try to express yourself. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION What you need is a whole lot of analysis because the ideas are going to flourish and this can overload your circuits if you are not prepared to direct the flow to the appropriate slot. This can be a breakthrough experience or major transformational change and it can come in sudden spontaneous unsolicited events and happenings so do not avoid life. You must embrace your destiny and ride it to an unknown destination unfettered by the familial trappings that have blocked your actualisation and realisation for eons. Deconditioning is destined to favourably give you some alternative possibilities to your old ruts and traps. JUNO ENTERS CANCER Conditional surrender, you have the conditions and you make others surrender to them, well at least in your mind. That is where it has to start. It has always been mind over matter. You have the mind and nothing else matters. Start there. Make it so. BALSAMIC MOON This really is a very good initialising phase for you. By banishing the old paralytic psychology and emotion and gaining a leg up on your own worth you can begin to exercise your wings a little with training wheels. You see you have to disentangle yourself from woundedness, pain, grief, sorrow, loss and old karma that has you nailed to the cross this lifetime. Healers heal thyself! It is available to you but no one can do it for you and most likely you have to do this on your own. Integrate independence and individuality into all relationships and let the old impressions die away to be replaced with positive future planning. Take up the reigns of your life, you are in charge, make change wherever necessary if existing relationships are not relative, if they are creating conflict or they interfere with your personal freedom. You may have to disassociate from family; internally if not in all ways. Those energy blocks will get harder to uphold. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI Attachment to the old, to the past, to standards as set down by those who were the authority in your life has you petrified in limbo. No one said it was going to be easy, it is just necessary for your spiritual development, future unfoldment and inner happiness. You have to do all you can to make your life happy. Feeling guilty for not taking care of yourself all these years can be motivating. Deal with disapproval first, be it your father's your mother's your family or anyone and dismiss the idea of such projections. Self-approval needs to replace the need for loving care, concern, consideration, appreciation and acceptance where it cannot be obtained. Give up on it. Once and for all lifetimes make that shift. NEW MOON In fact wherever guilt resides get to work on it. You are stronger, wiser, better and way beyond such reproach. Stop measuring yourself by another's yardstick. This is a good time to be motivated to fulfil your sacred contract to yourself. Your past, your family history, your parenting and childhood home are all aspects of you that are going through a major transformational shift. You need to fix what ails you, come to realistic understanding of the illusion that holds you back and breakthrough the psychological mire that lifetimes have harnessed you with. There is major consciousness development on-going and you will witness this by the increased powers of intuition or psychic receptivity that you experience. VENUS ENTERS LEO In order to be yourself you need to kick derrière. Being you means you handle other people differently than you ever have. Giving yourself the rights and privileges that you naturally assign to others will be your passport.  Realising yourself is being taken out of your hands and put squarely in the control of fate. You need only be the master switch person in control of steering. By clearing out old debris, father issues, mother issues, sibling issues and heck the whole ancestry thrown into a collective pool can be whitewashed at the same time; you free yourself up by dumping loads of battles you do not want to win. Give up, throw in the towel, realise you can win some battles but if you concentrate on single issues you lose the war. CRESCENT MOON If something conflicts with your values, reject it. If someone makes you feel like they have authority over you, reject them. Father issues need to be transmuted the most. Reclaim the authority that was used over you so you can rise above it. Extreme family issues are likely to involve power struggles that were or are destructive leaving you with inappropriate residue. This is not easy; this requires strategical management of your creative processes to remove the discord. Then you can balance your polarities to resolve your conflicts. After these processes, you can engage in beneficial relations of equality and reciprocity rather than the broken ideas of past relations. Current issues may involve extended family or step family and the power struggles that can be synonymous with such relations. The evolution of these relations in the collective unconscious is acutely necessary and this plays out in your bloodline scenario. No topic is taboo, you must speak frankly and confrontively fending off criticism, negative reaction, abusive protectionism or other extreme behaviour in order to transform and regenerate the situation and bring self-empowerment to you. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE This means your own authority can be rewoven into your past history by reassimilating the details as you disassemble yourself from the victim archetype.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI This is your polar opposite sign, you will get to know the side of yourself that you are less familiar with. It feels like the spotlight is on you and you are ready for the action. Relationships fair well. The things of value that you hold most sacred as well as your talents, abilities and worthiness change form because of your realigned focus. Whether to go forward or pull back is a dilemma you face. There is much advice available, judgement, criticism and opinion but your best decision is made within the quiet solitude of your own consciousness. GIBBOUS MOON There is something that is getting you very excited, it could be a trip. If you are travelling somewhere there is much anticipation and planning between people. You make an expensive purchase. Profoundly unusual experiences are trying to show you something, they are trying to affect the shape of your mind. You will explore the mysteries that pass through. Whoops there could be a problem with your plans, something to do with paperwork and unusual  happenings behind the scenes too. You discover the secrets. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO Going back to go forward, dealing with details left undone, situations abandoned to their own devices and things long forgotten fills your time. Health is good but it could be better! FULL MOON This is in your sign; you are half of the equation creating the magnetic pull on all of life on earth. What do you want to draw to you? This is a good time to secure your resources, learn about financial management. A change to your income is possible because you have earned it. URANUS ENTERS ARIES If you are not ready for change, it is ready for you. To want to make change and improvement it is easily done. What you can afford enters into this equation but there are resources to support you. This is not a good time to start a business unless the idea has been thought out well over a long period of time. Even still there would be many changes. What would cause you to want to impress others when you are not exactly ready? These are not the best motivations. You need to rectify something about where you are living. It is time to put the situation back into working order. Some might be between homes, or moving. SATURN DIRECT If you are expecting to use people from your past to help you achieve what you want, make sure it is not coercively as this is bad karma to take forward with you.  The social ladder is tempting to climb; it is made of many people's backs. As long as there is reciprocity, integrity and upfront intentions all networking will produce positive results. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE Old conditions are dissolving, out of touch relations are less connected and almost forgotten. Idealisations have you remembering the way things are and expecting no less. DISSEMINATING MOON Pay attention to what people say, what they are doing and come up to speed with the changes they have made to their life while you were focused elsewhere. Whatever the conditions were in your family home you carry these around with you like a weight. For the most part you are all systems go it is just everyone else that cannot seem to get past first gear. CHIRON RETROGRADE Wounds stem back to father issues, or issues with authority figures in general and the way you handled them. Too much sensory input is crossing your wires and causing you to remember things that did not happen. LAST QUARTER MOON Storytelling can bring its own woes when the yarn is spun too broadly; you have to deal with what you have said previously. This can put you in an embarrassing situation that may be quite public. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES Incoming energies are a real boost to your enthusiasm, drive and effervescence. Diversions are an attraction. It is important that you care for other people the same way you would care for yourself. Other people are noticing. Intense categorical judgement is unappealing and unattractive as well as out of place. You will go to where you will be nurtured; you can seek out and find what you need. MARS ENTERS VIRGO Now this pushes you a little, then more and finally gives you a really good shove to get going and attend to things not just think about them. Your progress is arrested by a slump in your sense of worthiness, perhaps a fear of failure, apprehension at least. A burst of energy and an underlying sense of guilt about not attending to things sooner you get mobilised. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS Thoughts of home, family, children, loved ones, friends and familiar places fills your inner landscape. Being distracted and otherwise absorbed you can cause yourself a mishap. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION Self acceptance is the answer for feeling aimless. Relationships are going to change, be different, they will not be as you left them the last time you saw them, and they will be defining themselves so they will not match your definition. Your karma is to nurture yourself and not depend on others to fulfil your needs. JUNO ENTERS CANCER Sorting out relationships is going to be a theme while this dwarf planet occupies Cancer. Unfortunately you seem to think the roles and rules should remain the status quo and this makes it difficult on everyone else who is in the evolutionary mix. Power struggles are possible but it should be everyone empowered for themselves. You may be out of synch with the process by trying to achieve what you want from others instead of what must be. BALSAMIC MOON During this phase where you can obtain a glimpse of the future, spend some time thinking about the reflection of yourself that you are seeing in the changed faces of others. This can be a very busy time and your emotions can get toxic. Try to take responsibility for yourself and not blame others for your situation or circumstances. You can get boxed in with your entanglement into woundedness and expectancy. It is necessary to transform these blocks into useable energy. Get yourself out of the doldrums, integrate individuality and independence and do not try to fit where you do not belong. Sift through your subconscious for the morsels of metamorphic change that are most obvious and go through there toward a newly defined destiny. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI This will perk you up and give you lots to think about, more alternatives and possibilities than you had imagined. Just the sparkling effervescence you needed. Expect to make new friends. Self-actualisation has to prompt self-realisation and your fate is to become more of yourself than the people who knew you would recognise. NEW MOON This can represent a new start for you, a new beginning that separates the past from the future. Do not take any of your old battles with you. Through your children or the children around you, it is possible for you to experience major transformational shifts. Recounting your own childhood in reflection of today's experience you realise the difference. The values of your youth may be clouding the vision of your children or apprentice because you are projecting these conditions onto them. It is important to let your progeny or those under your government follow their own path. VENUS ENTERS LEO Travel plans are appealing. Your hopes and wishes for these travel plans may become increasingly expectant. Take the time to understand where you fit and what motivates you to want what is not right for you. Use your power for everyone's benefit or the circumstances could work against you. Your karmic report card will be graded on how well you work with others, if you cooperate with their best interests and if you consciously try to please another. CRESCENT MOON Pleasant and progressive conversations, discussions and information sharing provides you with some alternatives to consider. Avoid extreme criticism; find a creative way to state your case without resorting to leverage. Romantic opportunities would attract someone who is meant to be in your life. It seems you reach many crossroads on your path in order for you to choose what fate you will self-fulfil. Falling back on the known and familiar is not the right choice. Being torn in opposite directions can be a cruel burdensome hardship. The demands and pressures seem unreasonable or unfair. But you need to sort yourself out and take responsibility rather than lay it on others. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE Your consciousness development, the karmic struggle on-going for all of humanity, will require that you redefine all parameters, boundaries and relationships.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI There is just way too much to do at this time of year and it has you stretched pretty thin but being the achiever you are it is important that you fulfil your tasks. Being on schedule and completing your chores and tasks as they are due is something very sacred to you. But you will be forced to admit to your limitations when the intensity gets overwhelming. This is an easy time for you to let go of some of the shoulds that have outgrown their relativity and growing into a new and freer task schedule. GIBBOUS MOON Someone plays a very important role in connecting you to influential people which will result in financial increase. Work demands take time away from home and relaxation. The most startling and profound experiences of an unusual nature are likely to come through the news around the world. But this has a domino effect on your consciousness as well as a guilty awareness of how you have it so much better. Power struggles rear their head. You are aware of who these people will be. But you thought it was all in fun which catches you off guard now. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO With this force you will excel. You make influential contacts, develop your new connections and increase your circle through intersecting circles. When it comes to multi-tasking you are a mean machine! FULL MOON Core beliefs or signals point the way to go. Stimulated from the deeper reaches of the subconscious new insights are triggered to empower your choice. Too many events, tasks and things that need your attention keep you running. URANUS ENTERS ARIES Keeping up to technology is a full time occupation. It seems no sooner you get situated than there is something else to consider. Your ambition to be financially empowered is a driving force behind this spurt of self-reliance. Many of your friends, colleagues, associates and network become interested in something that fails to get your attention. It is probably a bad investment of time, resources or energy. When you own a home there is always something reaching its stale date. You have been caught by this in the past and this is why you are putting extra effort toward maintenance now. SATURN DIRECT If you were not efficient before, you will be now. With a great gust of effectiveness you make short work of a vast heap. You really feel like you are coming into your own element, being yourself and realising more of yourself. Improvement ideas are remodelled. Remodelling ideas are improved. Children play a tremendous part in your pleasure and entertainment. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE Seeing through other people to who they really are takes compassion and respect. The more you become your own person the more you see into the evolving state of others. Some people fade away; simply disappear as they change focus. DISSEMINATING MOON What you are learning now helps you to reflect back over things gone by through which you gain empowerment and a sense of self-direction. Games, children, home demands and work fill your days. For some personal reason only known to yourself fixing your house and fixing your childhood seem synonymous. You may incur some heavy expenses that you hire under contract. But the progress is stilted and the completion of the terms of the contract is in question. CHIRON RETROGRADE What surfaces in your memories or through repetitive events and hurtful sequences is coming up so you can fix it. You are picking up on psychic messages, extrasensory perception, thought waves, what other people are not saying, or what they are thinking that is different to what they say. They will of course deny it. You have to learn to live with what you never wanted to know. LAST QUARTER MOON It is time to make some decisions, certainly there is an air of completion about this and while you feel awkward things go well. Social pressure can put you into financial distress until you figure out what is important. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES This will be overwhelming at first, far too much all at once, but once you adjust you will find the comfort zone with the increase in your challenging pace. There is a demanding requirement coming from people who are significant to your life. This takes away from your ability to take care of yourself. That is until you dissolve the bulk need into a manageable feed. Just a hint of not being appreciated, supported, cared for or of interest to another and you will cut and leave. MARS ENTERS VIRGO Incoming energy helps you to breakdown the huge amount you suddenly find on your plate into little pieces that you can accomplish in priority sequence. You present a powerful presence and image but underneath there is an element of self-worth that needs building. An overabundance of energy can cause you to overdo things to the point of strain and ill health; be moderate for endurance and duration. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS You are entering a time when you can incubate, regenerate, take care of yourself and have more quiet comfort to work at your own pace. Just be careful not to injure yourself because that would force you to take some time off. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION Regeneration, renewal, restoration and rejuvenation are keywords for your breakthrough. The chaos of these times may find you seeking refuge. Monitor your expenses which may increase due to unforeseen necessities. Decondition your relationships, or are they deconditioning you? The subconscious computer is working overtime analysing the conditional requirements required versus true needs. JUNO ENTERS CANCER This is likely to be a tough ingress for you. It may push all your buttons. Well at least you will be able to identify them and know what you have to work on. In relationship, contractual situation or agreement there is a major power issue within your committed relationships that could become very destructive if it is not dealt with openly and honestly. Possessiveness or abuses of power, equality, offence, conflict and usurping the other's power may be core issues. You need to recognize and honour both the need for self-empowerment and transformation and the need for intimacy. BALSAMIC MOON Everything is transmutable in this alchemical processing. Turn tension and blocked emotions into useable energy. Being right is not always what is important. You can get entangled and embroiled in differences of opinion attempting to persuade the end result in your favour. Loosen up; be more flexible and less of a convincing and converting tyrant. You want to use your power for the good of all. Be aware that while we are working on our karma from the past we can also be creating new karma. There is tremendous power in your court, use it wisely. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI Your compulsive side may be way out of control and your judgment so severe that you are not as intelligent and consistent as normal. Realise your woundedness; disentangle yourself from people that hold you back and work toward mutuality to avoid being cavalier. While your own critical instincts are honed acutely, you will not take well to disapproval, offensive behaviour, resistance to your efforts or negative expectations. NEW MOON The alchemy of personality takes the negative or derogatory and refines them into precious substances. The stress and tension of this time is ample opportunity to practice. Separating yourself from the herd mentality and being the special and unique person you are is written in the stars. But you have greater compassionate understanding of conventionalism and conservatism that keeps most people bound to the status quo. VENUS ENTERS LEO Being different sets you apart from the rest and so does your authority with a special subject. You can turn speculation or game playing into a vocation. It is not necessary for you to refit yourself to fit into the situation because you are in a special situation where your influence is important to the circumstances. Gain and success will challenge you with opportunities at every turn. The differences between people will not interfere with active and pleasurable cooperation. CRESCENT MOON When you are with people you have known all your life you find your new uniqueness more startling. But blended into your morphing reality there is less contrast. You enjoy this realisation. Certain aspects of self are required to maintain relations from the past, especially with elders. It is within your abilities to maintain the balance between these two expressions of self. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE Energies are intensifying, building to a pitch and the compulsion toward volatility can be triggered by extreme circumstances. Self-empowerment can be challenged by others but validating for you.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI You are energised and elevated by this influx of compatible energy and influence. As if you were not busy enough already, the acceleration of events has you feeling like you are peddling on the spot. Family values are very sacred to you at this time and you do your best to put them ahead of your workload. Making your home a sanctuary, a place of healing and contentment makes you feel better. Somehow no matter what you do things will not take shape, they shift and change, flip and transfigure but there is a reason. In some ways you are putting the cart before the horse. You are trying to act when no definition has been formed. GIBBOUS MOON Inspiration is still flowing and other people can help you to put everything into form but you need to make the pertinent designations. Dreams are particularly interesting and insightful. Highly unusual, startling, unsettling but profound events help to shape you. Through the blur of breakthrough moments you see your reflection as it evolves. Friends will be important in this process. Reversal of long held dreams will be due to a better plan and greater vision. Disappointments surround the workplace. They teach you something. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO A change in policy has you trying to tell a lot of people why things cannot be the way they were. Crisis management becomes a well honed skill. Cost factors have to be considered. FULL MOON Creative undertakings will be somewhat expensive but well worth the investment. Enjoy the festivities. Get out and circulate amongst your friends and neighbours. URANUS ENTERS ARIES This is a refreshing influx of energy. Just when you were getting bored and despondent serendipity brings novelty and renewed interest. You can start fresh and leave the old behind. Quiet the ego drives for self-gratification so you can hear the ring of truth when it sounds. Confusion comes from selfish concentration. There is some desire on your part to resolve the expression of your critical faculties, to encourage compassion, sympathy and oneness into your approach. SATURN DIRECT You pull your values together and construct a life structure to support them; vanquishing the behaviours as you will. People who emotionally attach themselves because of an unfulfilled neediness are difficult to align with. You can help them help themselves if possible but do not go down with those who are drowning. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE Before this planet leaves your sign this is an opportunity to tap into the abilities it provides for spiritual development, artistic achievement, psychic growth, redefining your faith based beliefs and being in direct touch with the collective unconscious. DISSEMINATING MOON A flurry of information piles up on your desk left for you to sift through when there is a more leisurely pace. Today's mysteries will provide tomorrow's discoveries. You may be unaware of how you need to fix the parent-child relationships in your life. Being so focused on your objectives you do not notice this tear in the fabric. The unknown and unsuspected trips you up in your progress. Something is missing and you have to find out what. CHIRON RETROGRADE There was a brief window of opportunity to see past your wounds, repetitive patterns, dysfunction or handicaps and now you feel them closing down on you again. The purpose is to dissolve and refresh. Unusually sensitive and vulnerable the deficiencies in your life, in relationships and in your personal experience come flooding to the surface. This can make you angry and disillusioned. LAST QUARTER MOON Call it a breakthrough, you dislodge the details and get to the other side where enjoyment awaits. You will be called upon by many different agents or solicitors and find it unavoidable due to social pressure. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES Clearing away the incidentals and dissolving the blockages due to others, you prepare to make progress. It is important to care about all your own personal needs, your family and your business or career requirements and excuse yourself from all else till those are under control. Floating in a label-less sea of collective disintegration it is normal to feel a little lost; just be one with it. Seeing through the illusions and masks of others you will choose to move away from false appearances. MARS ENTERS VIRGO You get twisted into knots before you sort yourself out and get your priorities in hand. Pay special attention to expenses and financial investments. You may not see yourself as others see you, it is curious how transparent the side of yourself you know the least about is becoming. Energies are on overdrive so you may be moving too quick and fast to notice the obstacles in your path. Tripping over them is no accident CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS Everyone's needs are changing; those who are growing up or growing old, changes in life and phase have you wondering about your own scenarios. If you are at odds with yourself or not paying attention, too absorbed in thought or busy with deed you can cause yourself a mishap. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION There may be sudden opportunities within your workplace or career. You might need a change and these high frequency energy waves are prompting you to free yourself from the old. Your self-mastery stems from the high-speed deconditioning processes that are working internally rather than escape, adventure or other liberties. JUNO ENTERS CANCER It may be a high priority to find people who are similar to you in your beliefs and faith but you are seeking those in league with you and have a real need to find them. BALSAMIC MOON Understanding emotion is part of your process. You need to understand how another person feels and why that is wholesomely correct for them. This will help you to identify with your own misplaced feelings because you tend to rationalise and justify, intellectualise and objectify instead of feel. The situations you find yourself embroiled in or entangled with will be learning curves to assist your holistic development. Being a sign that has individuality and independence as its hallmark you are working at blending into a rapidly changing society in which everyone is unique and unusual. Sifting through the collective unconscious you are grasping insights and understandings, gaining relativity and analysing metamorphic change from the all are one point of view. Extreme discomfort can be the vehicle of self-awareness. Coming to understand cultural, ethnic or spiritual differences between nations helps you to become more tolerant of differences between people. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI Throwing out all the assumptions of the past helps you to revaluate everything on new terms. Time will fly by as busyness will make it so. Be aware of how your own conditions, terms of association, may be the cause of blocked energy. Self-analysis opens the way to holistic relationships. You cannot resist your own disapproval; you have to have compassion for yourself as well as others. NEW MOON With all the work you have been doing on yourself last month you are in a prime condition for starting new projects. Major transformational shifts whisk you away on a series of personally relevant events and experiences. Increased intuition helps you to help others. Soul cleansing energy waves dissolve the encrustations around your pockets of unmanifested growth allowing more progress. VENUS ENTERS LEO Positive vibrations bring pleasant social activities, many involvements with friends and romantic interludes as well. There will be opportunities for expansion, new frontiers and unlimited possibilities with work. You find it easy to cooperate with others as long as they do not have a hidden agenda. But you are sensitive to anything left unspoken and will double-check to avoid misunderstanding. CRESCENT MOON Make a wish, look for a falling star, take a chance, gamble for fun and allow luck to win over logic or reason. What you cannot tolerate is deception, misrepresentation or coercion and manipulation; however you will be able to master any situation where these elements are present. Understand that you may not take criticism the same way as you will give it. This you will see in the reflection of another. Domestic responsibilities or obligations may become the source of a misunderstanding as your attentions are focused elsewhere. It is important that you take criticism constructively and come to understand how others see you. Then take it a step further and reconsider the past where this insight is relevant. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE You cannot make much progress if your wheels are not at the same air pressure, if a holistic approach to life is not ascertained. Concentration is distracted by the thumping of the imbalances that exist in your life structure.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI  You are already dealing with overwhelming nervous energy that could be making life a bit chaotic so this is not going to help you to feel grounded. It is a bit more of the same, just a little different. When you go out to do errands try to not forget anything. You are much better at home. Children are sacred to you; objects of art, your significant loved one and your long time friends; many things you treasure. However you feel like you are in the middle of the tug of war that wants you to either expand forward or eliminate and retract from your position. It is difficult for you to decide, it all seems dysfunctional. Just be with this for awhile till you adjust. GIBBOUS MOON What you learn is hard to absorb because it is so contrary to what you would think or feel. But after discussing it with those you respect you understand and increase in wisdom. Highly unusual experiences, paradoxical situations or simply adventures in mind-expanding awareness cause you to be forever changed in a good way. Understanding the dysfunction of others helps. Be aware that any attempts to rectify another's situation will not be more broadminded and sympathetic to that individual. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO Greater compassion excludes co-dependency; it encourages self-understanding and simply offers a banquet of potentials for another to choose from. Any further definition on your part is unnecessary. Your work is learning how to let others do theirs. FULL MOON You are pretty much stuck in position because there is no other direction for you to pursue. But within the vortex of your current situation there is a pressure cooker of potential waiting to create itself in concrete form. It is like stovetop popcorn, you just have to wait. URANUS ENTERS ARIES This is a relief, the high pitched vibrations have moved onto another sign. Overwhelm can subside somewhat. After seven years in your sign it is time to pull the pieces back together again. Do not believe in the media spin suggesting the economy is stabilising or even returning. It is still in a state of flux. Relationships gain your most avid attention when it comes to desiring to fix things. SATURN DIRECT You gather more self-determination, strength and endurance which will renew your spirit. It is time to do what you must. It is as if you have a magnetic attached to you that draws the needy and disadvantaged to you for help. But you must apply your newfound boundaries and insight into karmic responsibility and try to teach how personal choice leads to destiny. Put yourself first and you will still help others more than most. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE Building spiritual faith, developing psychic ability, unearthing the mysteries of your life or enjoying fantasy and fiction; you are in your element under this influence. DISSEMINATING MOON Relationships reach a point of great enjoyment. You take personal responsibility for your attachment to the underdog. Karmic lessons learned; you are ready for future growth. There is a warehouse of karmic debris that needs clearing out of the subconscious as well as rational mind. You need to dump those toxins. At present you are hedging along, creeping forward, weighed down by "stuff" that needlessly fills you with lead weight. The past holds you back, snags you, hooks you and trips you up and this may manifest as an inability to get things done. CHIRON RETROGRADE Emotions that have been stored for aeons keep you from realising your true self-worth and self-authority. Wounds and slights surface for you to realise how flimsy these ghosts are. You are overwhelmed by psychic energies. It is a wonder whether you can sort out which thought is yours and which belongs somewhere else. It is easy to know who is thinking about you and what. Yikes ~ how to stretch unconditional love. LAST QUARTER MOON Letting things end, detaching from long held convictions, changing your attitudes, opinions and criticisms is quite a whitewashing. It is more family than social pressure that is causing you discomfort and difficulty in changing the status quo. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES This just may motivate you to let go of material possessions, to do a cleaning of the closets so to speak. But you may also think of turning things into cash through a garage sale or online sales listing. It is your responsibility to take care of yourself first so that you are whole and vital enough to be there for others when they need you. Definitions, policy, rule, regulation and guideline are changing, the status quo is in quite a state of flux which you seem to enjoy. There is more time to play. You will not waste your time with people who do not have your best interests at heart, or in places that you do not belong. Spontaneously assertive and eager to respond; your social persona is changing. MARS ENTERS VIRGO This is your polar opposite sign so expect the shadow side of your personality to act out. You will assert yourself in different ways to your habitual norm, but not unusual to anyone else but you. Others have seen this side of you before. Friendships need to be formed for the right reasons. They need to reflect the you that you are becoming. Differences lead to misunderstandings. Way too much energy has you spinning round in circles with so much you want to do. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS A sense of loss can overcome you; it may not be directly related to anything specific, just an inner sense. You do not know what you are grieving for. Just let it go. You can cause yourself an injury if you do not apply care and caution to your actions. Excitable and erratic energies can cause you to be distracted or inattentive so be proactive. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION It could be your distinct pleasure to sit on the sidelines of the chaotic crazies that are happening all around you. It has been your time already and now you get to benefit from the experience of your enlightenment. You are deconditioning from the world of requirement and moving into a more freely liberated experience. JUNO ENTERS CANCER Being in step with the conditions of your life and having your agreements and contractual situations well sorted you enjoy this self-created healthfulness. BALSAMIC MOON This is an excellent time to put your mind to work on this year's travel plans so you can scoop up the sales when they come up. You have been pulled apart and stretched in many directions over the past year to seven years and now you can pull all the pieces of yourself together in a positive and optimistic experience of what you truly need. With more of a detached and objective understanding of how to become more individual and independent, less hooked by sympathies to do for others, you help others to help themselves. If ever you were to be intuitive or receiving psychic information it would be now. You receive insight into where you think not only your own destiny is going but the fate of the global reality too. It will be what causes you to experience fear, paranoia or guilt that will get you to act proactively in creating your future. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI While your thought provoking experience of this planet's occupation of Gemini will be stimulating it also will be validating. Good time to schedule any repairs you might have. Exceptional transformational energy will heal any woundedness and help you to disentangle yourself from whatever holds you back. It will be disapproval that is at the top of that list, either your own for yourself and others or anyone else who thinks they are more authoritative. NEW MOON Eliminating responsibilities and material objects is a main theme of this new month ahead. You want to lighten your load, pare down to the essentials and reduce your burden. Major transformational energies are working with you and for you. They enhance your experience of relationship and like King Midas, almost everything you touch. You are working on regulation of compassion and the expression of sympathy because of your enhanced empathy and unconditional or self-giving care giving. Loving yourself means changing how you have always given too much of yourself to care for yourself. VENUS ENTERS LEO Being self-concerned is not your forte. It will take some work to get you to even budge toward self-love. But much progress can be made for you to balance out your tendency to victimise yourself with your concern for others. Social reform and chaotic disarray of governing principles has put you into a sort of limbo within yourself. The restructuring of our global reality is a reflection of your evolutionary morphism. Instead of being accepting and responsive there is more of a cynical insight that holds you in reserve and the more attention you pay to this the more you learn. CRESCENT MOON Let destiny play itself out. You may not realise that fate has your needs in mind; however, you can find some answers to important questions and the keys to unlock new consciousness. Being impressed with the extremes that are happening around the world you are more consciously aware of making things right within your direct vicinity. The good karma you have earned will bring you gifts and rewards when you least expect it. You are learning how to balance give and take by understanding that it is alright for you to take more as your estimation never was equal. By putting your creative powers to work you are learning new ways to tell people about their negative traits, bad habits or worst contributions to their own situations. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE One of the best ways to learn is to see yourself in the eyes, behaviour, words and actions of others. You get to experience this firsthand and it can then continue as a self-regulating habit. It is fun to make these changes because you are discovering yourself.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI All the air of this sign just fans your flames which stimulates you to make more of yourself. Build upon what has gone before and you will have a renewable source for future development. Be sure to get a second opinion with regard to medical or health issues; question everyone while you entertain possibilities. You are moving toward expansion but you cannot help but feel the tug of limitation or retraction as it snags your emotions into imbalance. GIBBOUS MOON Promote yourself and your ideas, they will be taken seriously by others, and their time has come. Long standing friendships are helpful. It will be within the confines of your consciousness that you experience the most unusual, bizarre or profound processes. Dreams can be intense. Some work initiatives experience reversal while you reinvent ambition. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO There may be ample work, you just may not be in the mood to get it done. Distractions and interferences dissuade you from your tasks. Your wandering attention forgets its responsibilities. FULL MOON In fine form, this increased magnetic energy increases your vitality and buoys your feel-good quotient. URANUS ENTERS ARIES When you get over the initial shock of these increased life-shaking energies you will likely need less coffee. Change comes to visit in a big way and through all the happenstances you grow into more of yourself. It would be a mistake to hinge any decisions upon the hope of stable economic recovery as there are a few more dominos left in the package. Transformational forces are working on your psychology with regard to anger, aggression, assertion and passion. SATURN DIRECT You have to take responsibility for your mistakes in judgement and lack of understanding with regard to another's history, background, culture or family story. Judgement projects your values onto another who has no knowledge of its origins. Your changing needs make you more aware of the needs of those you know who have suffered psychological trauma. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE Self-reliance depends upon others in this world. You are prepared to separate yourself from those who show less of this attribute. But at the same time you have the nagging feeling you could help them have more. DISSEMINATING MOON What goes around comes around and for the most part you find this entertaining to watch as you know the background story. But do not gossip, some things are better left unspoken. You need to fix yourself because you are at the root of your problems with your parents. If you do not have all the details worked out you will go down a few blind alleys and detours before you get on track. CHIRON RETROGRADE It really is necessary for you to contemplate your own psychology to get at the root of what you consider to be the imperfections of your existence. Actually it is possible for you to know what others think about the issues that bother you and you might not like what you come to realise. LAST QUARTER MOON It is all good, growth that is. Self-analysis, self-criticism and a healthy inspection of your basis of belief is in order. Break down those encrustations and calcifications. Conservative notions of correctness create the social pressure that inhibits your self-realisation. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES If this is not a boost to your energy field then there is no other planet that will give you opportunities and advantages. You have to roll with it and be selective because many more favourable circumstances are going to arise than you can possible handle. Society and other people are not going to be there for you when all else is not if you adhere to social conventionalism. When times get rough these people get going elsewhere. When times are good they are your best friend. You will not identify with this, you will not be able to see it, you may not believe it; c'est la Vie ~ such is life. MARS ENTERS VIRGO With this occupation you are building towards completion in one fashion or another. The next two months will be very important in the outcome. Some doubts can enter into your usual positive and courageous approach; it is good to check on the details. Too much energy takes risks with limited resources and not enough information to back them up. You cannot blame the other guy. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS  A crack opens into an experience of a deep sorrow from which you need to pull yourself together to get on with things after a profound cry. But also pay attention to what you are doing. Being self-absorbed you are not focused. Other people may make a sudden move and catch you off guard. Try to be proactive when it comes to accident consciousness. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION You are at the centre of this exceptionally rare and spectacular alignment that is sure to launch global change and major transformation. No doubt you can witness this not only in your own life but in the lives of your friends as well. The deconditioning of social standards may not affect you as much at first. Perhaps you are one of the last strongholds to go down, but eventually you like everyone else must make some shifts in expectations. JUNO ENTERS CANCER This influence brings all types of relationship to the forefront, contractual or otherwise to make them right. Most importantly you will see fate unfold in the destined experiences of the people you know intimately. BALSAMIC MOON Being a little too activated and charged you might find it difficult to use this phase to conjure up meditative insight or future vision. Take a page from the notebook of current events in other people's lives and apply it to yourself. Finding freedom from the painful elements of your experience, your wounds, will be difficult. Your entanglement in others, in the past and in the status quo is not easy to loosen. To counteract this invisible bondage you seek to be more independent, more individually minded and different from the crowd and in the process you tap into your subconscious insight and benefit from the collective unconscious. Metamorphic change is not obvious but it is difficult. This you can attest to. You may not know what you are doing or why and how but you know how complex this is. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI Just what you need when you need it, this energy will lighten up the experience of whatever you are going through. An increase in social events or distractions will help. If your disapproval is met with stony cold silence appreciate that you need not pay any attention to those who reject your directions. A stalemate, standoff or deadlock can result until mutual disclosure can be arranged. NEW MOON A number of new ideas have been coming to you over the recent time and this is a good juncture to pull them together and get started in applying a diversity of alternatives. At the forefront of major transformational shifts you are working on the transformation of the subconscious convictions that obstruct your progress. If ever before you were being familiarised with self-realisation over self-actualisation now is the time. Realising yourself has many more dimensions than just making your potentials, possibilities, aims and ambitions come true. VENUS ENTERS LEO Beaming in from another fire sign these good vibrations help you to learn more about and integrate compassion, empathy, selfless giving, unconditional and absolute love and devotion. Big opportunities will arise for gain and success. You are changing your social presence most probably in an occupational way and it is supporting your long range objectives. The cause is your slogan, whatever the present cause is once fulfilled another will present itself. Karmic causes are as important as the charitable kind. CRESCENT MOON Make contact with all your contacts, friends, acquaintances, work mates, team mates, etc. and you will stir up a multitude of prospects for happy-stance. Extremes will be pushing you with your work, career or business. These come from within and from the build up of tasks. You need to sort out any conflicts in working with other people so that your ability to expand and grow is a positive flow. Responsibility and nurturance has to come together in a meaningful way for you to continue. You are sorting through your childhood memories, parental patterns and sibling experiences for new meaning. This is a positive regeneration that will help you get to the core of the subject and find balance. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE There is emphasis on information gathering and disbursing, this can mean advertising or promoting yourself but it can also be important for writing and publishing.

SUN ENTERS GEMINI The year seems to be getting away from you, it is a surprise how quick it has gone. You put your mind to health and fitness, and blowing out the cobwebs of the winter's lethargy. There are some people that you cannot believe. You have learned by experience to pick your battles so you take things with a grain of salt. Feeling stretched in all directions take the time to plan a strategy of attacking everything you know you have to do leaving lots of room for contingencies  because of what is going to crop up. GIBBOUS MOON Here is an opportunity to sort out true value so priorities can be managed in sequence of importance. Invest in yourself, get organised. Bizarre, abnormal and out of the norm experience will find you like a heat-seeking missile. Bend and flex like the reed in the wind, work those tendons! Some fancy tap-dancing makes things happen. If feeling like you are falling backwards, losing ground, lacking in momentum and falling behind; you need to put your needs before others. VESTA RE-ENTERS VIRGO This is workable energy for you, not only can you function well with it but it offers you a diversity of approach that you would normally miss. Friendships are extremely important, sometimes more than romance. FULL MOON The concerns of others can stretch you out of shape and make you feel good to be who you are with what you have. Issues with children tax your self-control. URANUS ENTERS ARIES Certainly if it is true for any sign it is true for Taurus. You are reclaiming your self-reliant future. The next seven years will stimulate you through much evolutionary growth. Do not believe everything you hear and even less of what you think, assume, or suspect of others. You are embroidering the facts. Exercising your independent freedom is something you plan on achieving. There are many steps to accomplishment but your enthusiasm is the necessary component. SATURN DIRECT Becoming stronger, more self-determining, reliant, confident and self-contained encourages you toward your ambitions. The neediness of others can hold you back. Some sense you might get ahead of them and subconsciously they like having you behind. NEPTUNE RETROGRADE One thing that is important under this influence is making sure that what you said is what the other person heard and understood. Misunderstandings are extremely easy because people are focused on their own perspective. The mind's eye flashes quickly on personally relevant reference points. Attention spans are stretched. DISSEMINATING MOON Listen and learn, watch what happens when others do it and make course corrections, attend self-promoting functions and pick up strategically important information. You need to grow beyond the parent-child relationship paradigm; your liberation is found in creating your own philosophies and beliefs and living life according to your own sacred contract. People are running hot and cold; take your time, decipher which is which and do not put your time or attention in any direction that wavers. CHIRON RETROGRADE Woundedness throughout your history occupies your mind. You strategize approaches to healing and expanding your consciousness beyond such matters. But you must take responsibility for what you have come to know whether it be by evidence or insight. Other people are no longer an illusion or mystery; the spell is broken and reality has set in. LAST QUARTER MOON Let toxic memories break down. Whittle them away piece by piece and replace them with faith and believe in yourself. Social pressures and expectations are a nuisance you can either entertain or ignore. It is easier for you to operate outside the box of what is expected and conventional. Be surprising; question everything and entertain possibilities. JUPITER ENTERS ARIES Huge growth in consciousness comes with this occupation. You will experience expansion of your thought processes that will help you with tolerance and a broader understanding. It is no surprise that you will sort out what a friend really is or is not; maybe for the first time ever. Personal relationships change form. Things are not black and white; absolute one way or another; it is easier to juggle yourself into your individuality. You have a strong reaction to anyone or any situation that does not support you or care for the protection of your best interests. MARS ENTERS VIRGO Repressed anger manifests, that is annoyance that has been stuffed down, held in, not expressed and now turns into rage. This rage can hurt you internally. Remember karma has a way of working itself out, acknowledge the hurt and pain, give it back to the perpetrator. Self-worth is a huge issue, especially if you have not been made to feel worthy by your parents or family. Sagging support systems leave you to bolster your own self-esteem. It is hard but you can do it. Your nervous system is being driven in overdrive at top speed non-stop; it is important to acknowledge this so that you do not burn out. CERES ENTERS SAGITTARIUS Grief from past history can turn you inside out; perhaps this is a way to renew and regenerate, rebirth and start fresh. You cannot do anything to change the past, it is beyond your control, but you can change you so that it no longer grips you the way it always has. EPIPHANY ~ REDEMPTION The collection of all your lifetimes, of all past experiences and soul history is churning together in the alchemical pot. The evolutionary purpose is to cleanse the spirit of old karma and unfinished business. They swiftly become unnecessary experience in the light of your progressive adaptation. Your deconditioning is more about individualising and meeting yourself on your path of destiny; being the spiritual warrior and following the uncommon direction. JUNO ENTERS CANCER Your old conditional expectations of relationship will change and improve upon themselves. Letting go of old expectations and standards helps to universalise the paradigm of relationship for you. BALSAMIC MOON Gain insight into new directions you are meant to follow. These lead to new friendships and relationships. You have the skills to disentangle yourself from old woundedness, to transform these energy blocks and attract new guidance. It takes courage to overcome your greatest fear and compassion for yourself to overcome habitual patterns. Inflexibility, resistance and rebellion would bring about separation. A test of strength brings the best out in you. Your metamorphic progression is fifty percent subconscious/past life and fifty percent individualising self-realisation. So integrate the two into a cohesive concentration of self. This sacred sanctity of the inner union of the soul will further your spiritual growth. MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI It is time to take steps forward, lay the groundwork on future projects and get busy with what needs to be well founded in order to create future promise. No ultimatums, only alternatives and possibilities as you question everything as to how it can be improved. There is no strategy or force that can put you back into the box. You work on father issues and repressed anger. NEW MOON Cradled in the arms of the collective unconscious and your own spiritual centre this month ahead is more about your spirit than your physical being. An element of destiny is in operation so just let it do its work in the subconscious. Spiritual development is first and foremost. Dimensional shifts will be easily achieved. Yours is epiphany and redemption as karmic transformational shifts of many lifetimes free up your soul. While you cannot do anything about the other people in your life this life or any life who have contributed to your state of being; what you will be doing is raising your vibration shedding the dross of these events and thereby any attachment to people, places or things. VENUS ENTERS LEO Do not expect everyone to appreciate the internal rearrangement of your synapses and molecules to better suit your true worthiness; they would like to keep you the way you were. But you will rise to and overcome the occasional challenge. The more you are in tune with your subconscious forces and metamorphic directions the happier, more elevated and lighter you feel. Stand in awe of your own achievement, what you have been working toward most all of your life stands before you. This is a definite juncture or demarcation between before and after transfiguration. CRESCENT MOON Blessings and expansiveness grace your steps and you are a child in the garden of life exploring, experimenting, inventing and playing with its diversity. In your light-hearted spirit as if floating on your cloud the nuances of your relationships seem to be mere details and trivialities so if they push you they are dismissed. This sense of ascension still needs some grounding, management and strategic cooperation but it will be useful in your work and home or with regard to family, parents and ancestry.  It is astounding how your old needs for emotional support and nurturance have evolved. You are empowered by the operating energies and find yourself more balanced and less conflicted. FIRST QUARTER SQUARE The challenge is to be yourself, make the mistakes that come natural to you so you can...learn. If you do not make mistakes, if you always play the safe hand or never ask a question, how do you learn? Be bold, be brave, be courageous, expand and explore and exercise your new found self-development achievements.
