You may be feeling a bit like the elephant in the room.  It seems that people are milling about having conversations around you but not with you.  This definitely leads to awkwardness for those wishing not to acknowledge you, but you feel a little left out, too.

Stop focusing on the current passing crisis and start to see that this is the beginning of something new.  Basically, you can’t be ignored.  You are a force and people just have to figure out how they are going to deal with you.  Some may be more creative than others.  Nevertheless, they will be coping with their own inner demons.  Try not to exacerbate it by pointing out their uneasiness.

Doors will now be opening that have seemed completely closed in the past.  Maybe it is just spring.  Everything needs to be aired out.  Opening doors is one way of doing it.  Be prepared to make a quick exit, however, if circumstances dictate it.  Be elegant about it. Go gracefully into the future.

Attitude is more important than altitude.  Keep your dignity and don’t overstate any egotistical points of view.  There is a temptation to let people know where you stand.  Don’t do it.  Play your cards close to your vest.  The best card may well be the one you haven’t played. 

Things are taking a definite turn for the better.  With Jupiter having gone direct, advancement will now be possible.  Mars, on the other hand, is retrograde, so there will be some bumps in the road.  Don’t despair, just go step by step.

Take action in situations that have been lingering.  Eliminate problems that have been sitting on the back burner.  You need to clear the way for future performance.  You don’t want to be weighed down by previous dilemmas that keep you feeling uncertain and anxious.

In clearing the way, put some effort into it.  Give things the heave ho if they are no longer serving your purpose.  Travel light in the emotional sense.  Now is a good time to identify what makes you happy and what doesn’t.  Don’t hesitate to make some changes.

You have a more mature approach at the moment.  You are not being irrational or impetuous. Have confidence in the decisions that you are making.  Belong to yourself and dictate your own destiny.  You can’t control everything but you can guide your actions with the help of higher influences.  This results in a smoother path. 

Don’t go around half-cocked.  People will note your vulnerability and this may set off an unwanted reaction.  You are somewhat dissatisfied with the current state of affairs.  Don’t allow bad feelings to build up and risk overreacting to a situation that is not really threatening.  Your frustration may peak at an inopportune time.

Forewarned is forearmed. Take a good look at where you stand and prepare to defend it.  No one will knock you off your game if you have made a bona fide effort to do your best.  Your best is good enough. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. 

Pay close attention to details. If you are entering into a contract or personal agreement with someone, you may need professional representation.  Your view may be too subjective to see the whole picture.  Money will enter into the negotiation. Know the value of what you are selling and don’t hesitate to ask for it.

Matters surrounding your finances will clear up in the coming few months.  Get out from under any debt you have and make a plan for the next few years.  You may not always adhere to it, but at least you have a plan in place.  This gives you some forward guidance and will pay off.

Take some time for entertainment and recreation.

These days it pays to belong to your-self.  If you leave your fate in the hands of another, you may ultimately be disappointed.  Take ownership over your actions and pay your own way.  Why not pay for the whole package? In any case, we pay for what we want and we pay for what we don’t want.  Make sure you get at least some of the things that are important to you. 

This week brings a thawing of emotions and is greatly appreciated.  You have been experiencing some irritation as you feel that you haven’t gotten the recognition that you truly deserve.  Don’t look for any payoff and you may be pleasantly surprised to find out how much you are appreciated.

Saturn’s visit in Scorpio is causing some unexpected aggravations.  It requires you to clean your house in an emotional sense.  It wants you to get more in touch with yourself.  Since you are digging, don’t dig half way.  You have to get to the bottom of it.  Don’t forget that you are only human.

Being human has some very dark corners and some very bright ones too.  Try to take advantage of the brightness but be mindful of the darkness.  The two co-exist.  Don’t go to extremes.  Life is a balancing act.

Communication is a slippery slope.  We think we are communicating with precision only to discover later that our words have been misinterpreted. So how can we know that what we are saying is received the way that it was intended.  I don’t think there is really any fool proof way to insure it.  The best way of communicating with people is through example.  We all learn by example.  Time is the best story teller of all.  We have to wait for the results and we have to live our words.  Words have to become works.

By walking the walk, we become a force.  Not just an empty vessel.  We gain substance and people begin to realize that we have girth. We have a field of influence.  That is the source of real power.  It isn’t something that comes through having things.  It is an inner resource that has to be developed.  We have self- respect. We should be our true self in the most positive way.

Dial down your feelings of sensitivity.  We are all sensitive.  Try to be sensitive to other people’s feelings. You have to be able to take it.  Sometimes your feelings get hurt.  This is natural.  Don’t take it personally.  Take it lightly. Try to avoid developing grudges.  They clutter your path.

You are tired of always trying to get out in front of every situation.  Let it come to you and trust your instincts.  This way you don’t exhaust your resource of energy.  You will build up more stamina and feel a sense of security knowing that you can depend on yourself.

Start to clear away clutter and work on organizing your living quarters. Go for minimalism.  We have a lot more stuff than we really need.  Learn to detach yourself from unnecessary material goods. Of course, don’t throw out everything but lighten up.

As you put things in order, you will begin to see new doors opening.  Opportunities that have escaped your grasp will suddenly pursue you.  Hopefully, this is a good thing.  Be careful of what you wish for, you may actually get it.

You will have  numerous opportunities to join other people socially. Don’t pass them up as they may be the key to some new experiences.  Open up and let people see who you really are.  By now, you should know who you are and what you want.  You have had a number of months recently to explore your inner workings. Reach out.

Now is a good time to replace some old concepts with some new ones.  Get rid of what hasn’t been working and at least try something new.  Don’t keep beating that dead horse.  Sometimes we try things for years with no apparent success.  We think if we keep trying that it will work and this thinking can persist for years.  I know because I am guilty of it, too.

Get a grip.  It isn’t good to waste time.  We have precious little of it, no matter how long we live.  It’s easy to put things on the back burner and never get around to bringing them to the front where they can be dealt with.  There is no time like the present.

You may feel like burning some bridges.  This is ill advised especially since you are so close to getting what you want.  No sense telling it like it is especially since no one has asked.  If they haven’t been interested in your opinion up until now, don’t bother to waste your breath. Especially since the door is so close.

Certain situations may trigger the memory of old emotional situations.  Be aware that they may encourage bad behavior on your part.  Don’t fall into the trap.  Keep silent and people will think you are a wise person.

Bigwigs are everywhere. It seems like everyone else is in charge.  It certainly takes the pressure off. You feel normal and are not defensive.  You are just cruising along and it feels nice not to worry.  You are not missing anything. You are just feeling relaxed and unencumbered. This bliss continues through most of the week.

Nature is taking its course.  It always does.  We have to learn to be in harmony with nature.  It makes life a lot easier.  Learning to be in harmony with nature begins with observation.  See how things work in the world at large.  Learn about structure and organization.

Don’t feel that you have lost control just because you are not struggling to stay in control. There should be many occasions for rest and enjoyment.  You don’t always have to be moving forward.  Sometimes you have to become fully aware of the moment. Be here now.

Time is the best storyteller of all.  We go through life just seeing snippets of a much bigger picture. Try to put your feet in the shoes of others.  Try to develop patience and understanding when you view others. Stay away from critical people who only find fault with others. We are not in a position to judge.

The Sun is entering the masculine, fixed, air sign of Aquarius.  It is ruled by Saturn and Uranus.  The combination gives way to a dual perspective of both facts and interferences.  Making predictions from astrological influences can be tricky.  It is usually done by synthesizing the planetary influences. Considerations may include the natal chart, the solar return, transits and primary directions, etc. Nevertheless, interferences are difficult to predict.  You may find that you have a promise with many indications or that you have many indications that yield no promise. When there are interferences, all bets are off. 

By understanding an individual’s psychology, it is possible to see their future.  Certain behaviors tend to create predictable ends. We as individuals are to some degree responsible for our destinies. Character is destiny. But there are many influences that dictate our future.  The more conscious we become, the better chance we have of using free will.  Not all is “free will.” We suffer from generations of genetics and psychologies that we must organize and integrate.

You may find that you have painted yourself into a tight corner.  This may be OK if you planned to give yourself no alternatives.  Sometimes it’s the only way to force self-compliance. Granted it is a back door approach but it does occasionally work.  Perhaps I am overthinking the situation which may ultimately become a circular type of logic.

Whatever the outcome, I’m sure either consciously or unconsciously it is what you are aiming for. The mind (ruled by Mercury) is very tricky.  Good business people have a powerful Mercury.  The purpose is to out maneuver your competitor.  Mercury is astute at the task.  Mercury moves into the sign of Aquarius where new found ingenuity is budding.

Wisdom (ruled by Jupiter) opposes intelligence (ruled by Mercury).  It takes experience to make the two work together.  It is an important task as life is short.  We get old too soon and smart too late. The key is to integrate time and space.  All problems can be solved in time and space.  Time (the fourth and tenth house) and space (the first and the seventh house) form the axis of astrology.

Keep moving and doing.
