Astrology Tidbits & Tie-Ins

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.

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.

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.

Your nerves feel frayed during the coming week. It would be nice to take a vacation but that may not be possible. Try to focus on the important things and forget about the annoying details. These details will resolve themselves. You feel like you are being pushed but it may be that you are the one who is pushing. Ease up on those around you and let them take a breather from the hectic pace that is dominating the world scene.

Jupiter and Neptune are retrograde and are in Aquarius. It’s as if you are seeing things through Alice’s looking glass. Or maybe it’s like looking at your fantasy through a rear view mirror. In any case, don’t become disoriented. Look ahead to saner times when things will appear more real. You are struggling to create balance in your life and it is a very difficult task at the moment as there is a lot of drag to contend with. In the coming month things will be more harmonious.

Both your conscious and unconscious are undergoing tension so stay active and don’t think too much. Doing is the best medicine. What you have in mind may be too expensive. Explore alternate possibilities to obtain the best results. Be open minded even when people seem to oppose you. Fake it if you must. Being agreeable scores big points and assures future cooperation.

Hope that you’re not planning to neglect any important details because that will cost you in terms of time and money. Read the fine print carefully before signing. The Sun, Mercury & Saturn are conjunct in the sign of Virgo and this will keep your attention focused on the little things. It’s these little things that can turn any experience upside down if you don’t stay vigilant. Uranus in Pisces is opposing this trio of planets so you can expect some pretty irrational behavior coming from some people. The best approach is to ignore them and be engaged in your own agenda.

The Moon in Libra wants to assure that you will have a harmonious relationship with others that you are dealing with. This may not be altogether possible as you need to react decisively to problems that emerge. This unfortunately reduces time and diplomacy in your actions. Some people are going to feel offended or slighted.

Mars is in Cancer adds an emotional aspect to your thinking. Try to separate fact from fiction in a cool headed way. Moodiness is not going to be well received in a professional atmosphere. Consistency of temperament and clear thinking will attract the needed support for your projects.

Remember the old adage, “people who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.” This will curtail any temptation you have to “tell it like it is.” The greatest power is power over yourself.

This week teeters on a one legged stool. Beware of impetuous behavior that could bring a well planned project down in shambles. Many resources can be tapped to keep things moving in a positive direction. Make sure to take your time and think twice about any spontaneous thoughts that may come to mind. Your thinking will undergo some important changes at this time. This will result in good quality work and diplomatic approaches to problem solving.

Make sure that you base your thinking on cold hard facts and not some unsubstantiated data distributed by the fringe. Confront your resistance to suffering as this is an important aspect of life that should be incorporated into the personality. Overcome resistance to change and show that you have the fortitude to get things done.

There will be many accomplishments during the week as long as you stay focused on reality. Don’t allow yourself to indulge in fantasy and overexpansion. Your home life may be disrupted by unexpected news that creates extra chaos during this coming week. Keep you own situation at the forefront of your thinking and let other people do their own rationalizing.

The sky is bursting with aspects that make for a very busy week ahead.

Except for the opposition between Uranus and Saturn which threatens to upset everyone’s plans, there isn’t a lot of quality communication going on. It’s hit or miss and it’s very hard to hit a moving target. There are too many elements competing to get a consensus. You will have to settle for something cobbled together at the last minute. This may all seem rather chaotic but even chaos has geometry.

The planetary influences have you reacting to every slight. A thick skin will come in handy during the week. You have to control yourself as that is where the real power is.
If you can ignore the noise that surrounds you it won’t be so intolerable. Create you own atmosphere by concentration and don’t allow anyone to spoil it.

You feel that you are being pulled in many different directions. Don’t go where you don’t feel comfortable. Use your instincts to help you make the best choices of company.
When you surround yourself with optimistic people it helps your overall mood. Be your own friend. Loose ends are everywhere. Tie them up when possible but don’t be frustrated if some projects have to be put on the back burner.

All in all, this week trends toward a nervous disposition. Be brave, this too shall pass.

This week brings everything and nothing. It is a zero sum game. The planetary influences come together to create a moderate amount of anxiety. It is hard to detect exactly where the pressure is coming from but it weighs on you nevertheless. This anxiety tends to sap your strength so it is important to be kind to yourself. Take extra vitamins and don’t overwork.

Fill your hours with activities that allow you to sweat out the toxins that could be accumulating due to added stress. Take a long walk, go to the gym, ride a bike. Doing something physical will reduce your feeling of anxiety. Keep your attention focused on situations that require your immediate action. Don’t worry about things that are far in the future.

This would be a good week to concentrate on your finances. Try to organize them so that they don’t distract you when other important issues are pressing. Organize your finances so that you don’t have to revisit the matter for at least another year. This will free your mind to take care of emotional and intellectual problems.

There appears to be information coming your way that may change your perception of a current situation. Be open to this as it will create a golden opportunity for you in the near future. Friends support you at this time.

Things become crystal clear during the week. With the Moon in Libra you are feeling amiable and very cooperative. Enjoy this relaxing period. The Sun is just entering the sign of Virgo which will direct your attention to practical matters. This will help you to develop a step by step approach to problem solving. Patience is the only virtue. Virgo tends toward the commercial aspect of things so if you are promoting something this is an ideal time to hatch a plan. Don’t get caught up in perfectionism…just get it done.

You see where things are headed and you can cut off any unpleasant situation before it has a negative impact. Your imagination it at work and you are solving many of life’s problems while you sleep. You’ve been working 24 hours a day. This may make you feel slightly fatigued but don’t worry. You will get a second wind.

Also, you seem to be brimming with bright ideas. Put some of them to work. Don’t talk yourself out of them. Just do them. Doing things reduces a lot of anxiety. When you are just thinking it can make you feel edgy. Take action!

You may undergo a transformation in your relationships with others. Suddenly, you realize that you can only change yourself and not other people.

This week is going to be a very active week. Many planetary influences are at work. Also, this week seems to be a week that delivers or ties up loose ends in preparation for completion of business affairs. Clarity may be somewhat challenging to obtain but take it slowly and you will make the right decisions. Your reaction time may seem slower than usual. Spontaneity is well prepared.

You may find that you get better results if you don’t ask too many questions. Then if you ask the answer will probably be “no”. Better to forge ahead as long as you are not breaking any laws. It reminds me of the story about the game warden. A man wanted to go fishing on the game reserve so he asked the game warden if he could fish there. The game warden said “strictly forbidden”. The man then asked why are there people already fishing over there and the game warden replied “they didn’t ask”.

You may find that your timing is off. Make sure you listen carefully before making judgments. Success often depends on being in the right place at the right time. You can be there if you use foresight and anticipate the actions of others. Life is a game but it is also serious. Be vigilant.
