Tip of the week

Not only has a new season begun, it is that season that is symbolic of 6 a.m. to noon. This is usually a very active and dynamic time period. At least that is ideally the case in terms of feeling alive, productive and empowered.

With a line-up of powerful planetary alignments scheduled to occur over the course of the year, it helps to be aware of how these stand to impact us. Like listening to the morning news for traffic reports, weather and other important public notices, knowing the planetary forecast gives us the added edge necessary to succeed.

Success is not simply about more of this or that. It is also about quality of life, peace of mind, harmony, flow, attunement within and without, job satisfaction, relationship fulfillment, spiritual alignment and a happy home and family life. Due to the holistic nature of reality, astrology can offer invaluable insights about who you are (character traits, strength and challenges), where you are coming from (past influences, home and social environment conditioning and core motivations, the meaning of which transcends matter-of fact ambitions and survival needs), where you are going to (destiny, awareness of life lessons, quality self-expression, authentic self-actualization, where you are now in your life (current cycles specific to you that again transcend matter-of fact-thinking and even deductive logic based on so-called common sense which takes a homogenous approach to people’s lives), and what is next (upcoming cycles and their respective openings, opportunities and/or obstacles and delays). In this regard Astrology is very powerful indeed and may accurately be deemed the oldest and most genuine holistic life coach tool of all!

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

Spring has sprung into dynamic motion. Yet, despite the pace, you may feel that you are not fully awake yet. This can be a complicated, even troublesome combination. Some extra efforts to remain centered and focused may be required. At best, you are entering new territory yet are exercising patience before making final decisions and commitments.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

A good deal of activity happening behind the scenes is likely now. Perhaps big plans and schemes are brewing in your dreams. Yet, you may also be taking more deliberate action and letting only those you trust most in on your strategies and moves. Sometimes it is best to not tell everyone your business lest their opinions clash. Call on courage and forge ahead.

Gemini (May 21 – June 21)

The turn of spring has ignited your fuse. You are excited at the prospects and feel determined to break clear of familiar fences. The future is beckoning and is a summons of your pioneering spirit. Because it is hard to be in two places at the same time, even for you, you will likely have to make a few sacrifices to push through.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Despite a lingering philosophical attitude, you feel ready to forge ahead. You will need tools and supplies and fresh know how. This is a time when you could gain some real recognition and popularity. It will not be so easy to shy away from the spotlight so be at your best. Use this green light to advance to the next level.

Leo (July 22 – Aug 23)

New visions for your future are coming to a steady boil. You are excited to try new angles of approach. Your will power is running high making this a good time to venture out. You are in the mood anyway to enter new territory. With your creativity levels on a steady rise the time is ripe to capitalize. Be willing to make the extra efforts necessary.

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

New levels of power are rising in you. These have been brewing for some time now and imply a heightened state of awareness. Yet, these are also producing many changes. Resistance, denial or oblivion will cause your trouble. You need to work with this cycle by getting healthier. Eat better, exercise more, do a cleanse or whatever it takes.

Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)

Your relationship world is receiving a big activation now. This trend will not only continue, it will increase and carry over into May. This could certainly spark new encounters. Yet, it could also instigate some conflicts as well. Your ace now is to be a little more assertive than usual. Balancing a healthy offence with a defensive approach to trouble should do it.

Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)

Spring ever brings an urge to start new projects. For you this includes cleaning. Yet, it is not just you house or yard but your mind, perceptions and concepts that may be in need of some purification. What can you do to get a fresh perspective? Step back and away however you can, ideally without making others feel rejected. Then recalibrate from there.

Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)

You are in the mood to play. The changing season is inspiring you to engage and be engaged. This provocative energy pattern could be too hot to handle by some. At worst it will manifest as excessive passion, even anger and impatience. At best, it is inspiring you to be the producer, director and actor in your own show.

Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)

Some hefty shifts, shakes and quakes close to home are keeping you busy. With change come opportunity, and perhaps a dose of necessity to inspire invention. You may feel the need to reinvent yourself these days and this energy pattern is added fuel to that fire. Perhaps your best approach now is to fortify your headquarters.

Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)

Many new thoughts, ideas and perceptions are pouring in. You may even feel a little overwhelmed. It may take a few months until you feel more certain of your direction so take your time. For now, simply enjoy the game of new discovery. You are on a quest to actualize greater fulfillment in your life which likely implies receiving returns for doing what you love.

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

As you steadily proceed into new arenas you are experiencing changes in your priorities. This will become increasingly evident over the next several weeks. New angles of approach are implied. Your ambitions are on the rise and you want greater output for your input. It will help if you assume a more playful attitude, or at least that of a player who wants to win.
