Month: April 2010

Sun in Taurus trine Pluto in Capricorn promises that something bold is brewing. If plan A doesn’t work, move on to plan B. This does assume that you do have a back-up plan. Foresight is the mother of invention. Overall, this is a good time for retaining ideas that can be capitalized on. Mercury is also in Taurus so you have time to think through things carefully before proceeding. Also, the Moon conjunct Saturn in Capricorn reinforces the need for caution.

Mars square Mercury tends toward reckless mistakes. Don’t increase your risk if you can possibly avoid it. Meanwhile, luck is a big factor and it seems to be working for you. Luck is above the horoscope. People are now making many demands on your time and you must be resourceful or you will run out of steam. Protect your good health from the imposition of others. Learn to say “no” when it is warranted.

Heavy weights are opposing the status quo. Know what you want. Plan your work and work your plan. It’s easy to be overlooked by higher ups who don’t really know what is going on in the rank and file. Try to stay focused on doing your job well and forget about the petty politics. These things will find their own demise.

This seems to be a time when we have difficulty choosing between the conventional and unconventional. You can approach this problem in a number of ways; find a way to blend the influences of Jupiter (conventional) with the influences of Uranus (unconventional). You can be conventional in one part of your life and unconventional in another. The conjunction of these 2 planets creates a need to resolve this issue. You can choose whatever works best for you. These planets are in the sign of Pisces thus you should be careful in the application as Pisces can be easily deluded. Make sure you are incorporating reality.

The Moon in Gemini lets us take a rather superficial approach to problem solving. It relies entirely on the mercurial ability to theorize. However, theory and practicality are contrary elements. Theory must be applied in order to be proved. Also, it is important to integrate time as all things may be realized in a practical way but at different points in time. Truth is impossible to pin down completely as it is always changing.

Try to pull all the threads of your life together and give yourself a strong foundation for your thinking. Weave the fibers of your being into a durable character. This will keep you moving in the right direction and keep you seated in reality. Your creativity can advance you at this time. Think outside the box.

Some days you feel like you have been outmaneuvered by your closest allies. This is just part of human nature. It is the way people test their own competence. In a way, it is a great way of gaining perspective. It is a way of testing reality. Like children we find it necessary to learn from our personal experience rather than the advice of experienced people. After all, advice is abundantly available. Perhaps it is better to blaze your own trail.

You feel a bit on edge as Mars in Leo is extremely active. It does improve your drive which is beneficial if you are having a defined goal. Also, you are slipping back into an analytical phase with Saturn retrograde in Virgo. This period of reevaluation will be important for moving ahead in the future.

This would be a good time to make some aesthetic improvements. Move the furniture around or whatever will give you a fresh outlook. You have been stuck in a very boring place for a while and you must take the initiative to pull yourself out of this funk. Go out of your way for some quality entertainment. Go for anything that will uplift your spirits. You will soon turn the corner and arrive to a much cheerier point of view.

Go slowly and you will arrive sooner. This week brings about a metamorphosis that has been in the works for quite some time. Although conditions on the outside remain somewhat tenuous, there is a definite move in a positive direction. Sometimes we feel like Sisyphus pushing the rock up the hill. Your hard work does pay off even if there are some obstacles that seem to repeat themselves. Be tenacious and you’ll succeed in time.

Overall, this is a great week for capturing some rays of Sun. Get out there and let people know what you think. You’ve been beating around the bush for too long. Be delicate though, you don’t to beat them over the head with it. People like others who are like themselves. We all want, basically, the same things and it is good karma to try and help others to reach their goals too.

This is a good week to bury the hatchet. If you’ve been walking around with a lot of angry feelings toward others…get over it. Forgiveness is going to make you feel a lot better. These negative feelings destroy our good health and optimistic outlook. I’m not suggesting that you let others take advantage of you, but put most of your energy into your own life and let others do the same for themselves. You won’t be accused of doing too much. Too much and too little are the enemies.
