Bell, Book & Candle

Time waits for no one. Don’t vacillate between lethargy and enthusiasm. Now is the time to gain control over your actions. You are in a good position to make beneficial judgments. Listen to your gut. Certainly instincts can be dead wrong, but now you can count on your intuition. Spontaneity is well prepared.

Expect chaos to be the norm. Uranus is going direct so you will see a sudden increase in the uncontrolled impulses of your fellow man. There will be lots of protests both national and international. Springs will be popping out of the heads of the masses. Try and keep your head while others are clearly losing theirs.

Lots of planetary aspects with the outer planets (Uranus, Neptune & Pluto) will create events that will come to the attention of the world. Generally, many changes are taking effect behind the scenes. These changes will become evident in the coming months. There influences will be felt for years to come. Stay flexible as all situations can be used to your advantage. Granted you may have to change your own personality and character. This can be enlightening and an opportunity to grow emotionally and spiritually.

The Bigger They Are, The Harder They Hit

Finally, some lighter planetary influences. You should begin to feel a release from nagging circumstances. Move on to the cheer of this coming holiday season. Lots of planets in air & fire signs give a more superficial and lighter approach. Air is theoretical and fire is enthusiastic. These influences are nicely realized throughout the month ahead.

The Moon, Jupiter & Neptune are in Aquarius therefore you may expect a deviation from the norm. Aquarius always designs an unusual solution to society’s problems as a whole. Saturn is in trine to the Moon so you may feel like holding back but forge ahead as you will have the support of those around you.

The Sun in Sagittarius gives a jolt to your energy level. Lots of adventures await you so don’t hesitate to take the first step. Venus square Jupiter gives rise to a competition between two beneficial opportunities. Choose carefully and use foresight to determine which is best for you.

Saturn square Pluto continues the trend of upsetting institutions that have not changed in eons. These changes are always painful to begin but will later reap benefits for the general population. Look for ways to become part of the solution.

Don’t Lose Your Cookies

This week calls for a strong stomach. The inequities abound. But have faith as all of these concerns will be addressed in due time. There is an air of secretiveness. This comes from having 4 planets in the sign of Scorpio. You may also be meeting people with absolutely no flexibility in their thinking. I think they call this stubborn. Never mind trying to make any convincing arguments. Just wait until next month when they will be more willing to compromise.

Big decisions will be made in the face of growing opposition. Unfortunately, not every situation can wait for cooperating influences. Tempus fugit. Institutions may fall as influences beyond our control may dictate policy. Think of a tidal wave. The momentum is powerful and nothing can interfere. Situations, too, must run their course.

There may be some surprise element attached to this week’s happenings. Promises have been made and these demand action. If you get what you want using pressure, don’t be surprised if this tactic backfires. The sheep refuse to be herded. As a friend once put it, “here’s nothing, keep it well”. Empty promises could foil even the best laid plans.

Rely on your own thinking unless it has been proven that there is a better way.

Kill Them With Kindness

Breaking up is hard to do…it seems that established organizations have difficulty making any significant changes until now. With the help of Saturn in Libra squaring Pluto in Capricorn, it will be easy and necessary to make changes. You can either use your free will to make the changes or they will be made for you. Fewer options are available in the latter case. Take the initiative to make practical and intelligent choices.

You feel emotionally charged this week with so many planets in water signs. It’s easy to procrastinate when it comes to making decisions. Motivate yourself and do whatever needs to be done to get the job done. Decisions regarding other people’s money could play a roll. Treat other people’s money as if it was your own. Don’t waste resources that cannot easily be replaced.

The Moon Leo is conjunct Mars in Leo and this creative combination leads to visions of future possibilities. Leo is a very independent sign and you will resist any encumbrances that are imposed. Better that the Lion is not awoken as his fierceness may lead to damage that can’t be repaired. Leo the Lion is not to be played with.

Sometimes it’s better to move on. Don’t hang on to situations that no longer serve your purpose. This may cause angst but will be worth it when you are involved in something that brings you a lot more satisfaction and joy.

No News is Good News

This week starts with the Moon in Aries. Fire signs don’t have good instincts, so think before you speak. Moon in Aries will energize you and you can make use of this strong beginning. Venus in Libra will try to temper your strong reactions to any situation. It opposes the Moon. Honesty may not always be the best policy. People don’t like truth serum. Try to point things out in a nice way.

Mars in Leo reinforces this feeling of energy. Mars will be in Leo for the next 8-9 months although at some point it will be retrograde. This may lead to action but it will be hampered by undercurrents that are beyond your control. Keep the momentum going and eventually you will succeed.

You will experience things in a creative and fresh way. Venus is trine Jupiter and Neptune in Aquarius. This may result in vivid dreams that you may only be slightly conscious of. Write them down when you remember them and look them over later. You may find some recurring trends that you can focus on consciously. This will help you make necessary adjustments to your thinking.

Saturn in Libra is square to Pluto in Capricorn. This aspect is good for breaking any bad habits that you may have. Make an effort to eliminate any nagging situations that you may have been avoiding. Break ups of all kinds are now possible and will be assisted by this planetary aspect.
