The Carnival Is Over

This week should be relatively calm. Overall, it should be beneficial and more to the point, comforting. It seems that there is no justice that everything is random and no matter what our actions, they don’t seem to influence the outcome. I don’t believe in coincidences and that things are random. We shape our future in the present and derive it from the past.

This week is a sum of the lagging indicators. This may be an upset for some but it should be something that we can work with. Creativity, design and practical application get the job done. Reigning institutions are in the process of being re-organized. This is bound to offend some of the less flexible members of society. However, being flexible is key to success.

The Moon in Capricorn causes a sense of material insecurity. Actually, anytime we find the Moon in an earth sign we find material insecurity. Yet security is a collective process. It is something that we develop over time. The ability to rise to the occasion and meet practical challenges comes from experience. Security is not something that you can achieve. You have to constantly maintain it or it dissipates. True security is found in the fire signs such as Aries, Leo and Sagittarius as these signs can burn through the fear.

Transformation which is ruled by Saturn means that we can’t be trapped by the idea of material security. Something always comes along to move us beyond.

Death is Not Worth Dying

We have the Sun, Moon, Mercury & Venus in the sign of Libra. This bodes well for being able to come to some kind of agreement. What seemed impossible only weeks ago is now basically “in the works”. Libra is a very cooperative sign but it tends to put agreement ahead of all other values. Luckily the planetary configuration makes agreement with the highest of values as part of the plan.

Suppression of disruptive and unproductive thoughts and deeds is accommodated by Saturn in Virgo and helps to further a constructive agenda. Your energy level is going to be vital during the coming months so it is necessary to guard against expending effort that will drain off needed resources.

Self discipline will be necessary to stay charged and focused on your personal drives. Let other people help you to attain your goals. They may be doing this without even realizing it. This is the benefit of so many planets in air signs. We tend to over-think which can lead to error in judgment.

Exciting times are ahead. Be prepared and things will fall into place.

Repetition, Repetition, Repetition

Since making small calculated risks with your professional development, you are starting to realize that some of these efforts are probably going to pay off. You are looking toward your future with optimism. With the Sun in Libra trine Jupiter in Aquarius you should start seeing areas of growth emerging. Mercury just entering Libra will help you see that theories have to be put into action. Mercury is in square to Pluto and forces you to make the necessary changes.

Personal relationships are not taken lightly. In fact, they may be postponed until you have achieved a more solid footing. You need to rely on yourself for the best results. Disappointments may come through unrealistic expectations. Clarify your position so that there won’t be conflicts that develop later on.

Circumstances will be testing your resolve. Remember what your primary goals are so that you don’t stray from your agenda. It’s easy to get caught up in the drama and to start veering off course. Stay focused by keeping your long term and short term goals in balance.

Spontaneity is well prepared. Don’t get caught flat footed. This will allow other people to see your ingenuity.

Tick Tock

You are emerging from a very insightful period only to come upon what seems to be an outbreak of lunacy. Is the world upside down or are you standing on your head? It could be a little of both. The modern planets are exerting a lot of influence over the personal planets and this makes for chaotic and somewhat incomprehensible times. Don’t allow other peoples behavior to influence your own. Continue your quest with consistency of purpose.

Your mind is challenged by circumstances that have become somewhat unpredictable and unstable. Don’t jump to conclusions about what you think may be happening. Allow new information to surface before continuing to the next step. The longest journey begins with just one step. Curtail resentments that may be standing in your way. This is bad for your health and doesn’t further your own agenda.

Time is the best story teller of all. Stay tuned to higher influences so that you may be at the right place at the right time. Consider all of your options before decisively choosing one. Once you have committed yourself to a direction…keep going. No one can harm you without also harming themself. We all know this to be true so don’t worry about the actions of others, just take control of your own actions.
