ARIES
We can all think of a handful of people whose lives made the world a better place: Princess Diana, Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa. But we can reel off a much longer list of celebrities/movie and pop stars. Are there really more of them than great and good folks? Is it that we're so caught up in 'bad news stories' that compassion and generosity are rarely acknowledged? With Venus, planet of love and pleasure, arriving in your sign, if your actions are rooted in kindness, you won't gain fame and fortune, but you'll spread joy.
TAURUS
Unless we're trying to cross an extremely busy road, we don't give much thought to the protocol of making it safely to the other side. We know what to do. But imagine trying to traverse a familiar street wearing soundproof headphones and a blindfold? That mundane task is transformed into a potential danger. A sense of déjà vu is preventing you from making progress. Yet even though it reminds you of a situation from the past, the context has changed. With your ruler moving into Aries, you've got the skills to succeed.
GEMINI
If patience is a virtue, does that mean that impatience a vice? There are times, surely, when a sense of agitation and restlessness can be helpful? On a moral compass, if patience is to the North, lethargy to the West, enthusiasm to the East and persistence to the South, we need all these energies/attitudes on different occasions. The task you face today demands resilience and determination. And with Venus (love and creativity) moving into dynamic Aries, the cosmos is providing you with the energy and support you need.
CANCER
Why do people sometimes do the exact opposite of what we'd like them to do? And why do they often have ideas that we secretly find ridiculous? There's no point going to the effort of explaining to someone that they're on the wrong track today. The chance of them taking your advice on board is minimal. So, here's an idea: when you really want to change someone's mind about something, try to see things from their perspective. If you make the effort, and put your views aside, you'll find a way forward that works for both of you.
LEO
We might not be published authors/bloggers, but we're all natural storytellers. We might not be gifted in the art of crafting sentences, or using decorative speech, yet part of the human experience involves looking at the world, drawing conclusions about what's going on, and sharing our thoughts with others. We attach meaning to our experiences. And since we're only human (and not infallible), sometimes we can create a false picture of reality. Rather than focusing on a negative storyline, today brings a happy event. Share it!
VIRGO
'No one wants advice... only corroboration'. Remember these wise words, written by author John Steinbeck, today. Your guidance is being sought in regards to a delicate matter. Someone is seeking your opinion, and pinning an important decision on your wisdom. To you, what they need to do is obvious. Yet no matter how you put it, they're not listening. They can't hear you, because they don't want to hear you. It's tricky. So, should you be firmer/clearer? Bide your time. They're just not ready to make the right choice.
LIBRA
It's easy to think the world revolves around us and take things personally. Taken to the extreme, with this kind of mindset, we can attribute a sunny day to the good deed we did yesterday. And if it rains all day? Well, that could be a celestial response to a negative action. Of course, no one has this kind of power and influence. Yet with your ruler moving into a new celestial home, whatever makes you feel stronger, happier, and more optimistic is absolutely fine. With a positive mindset, good things will come your way.
SCORPIO
When the world is so full of uncertainty, it can help to think back to previous times. Imagine how life was when the human race had to deal with dinosaurs and catching their own dinner? Yikes. Yet those people were still dealing with familiar problems; like relationship issues and communication challenges. With Venus, love and creativity, moving into Aries, by going back to basics you'll find a way to deal with a tricky situation. When you take a good look, you'll see that something you're perceiving as a threat is only a paper (sabre-tooth) tiger!
SAGITTARIUS
In typical Sagittarian style, you've been pushing your luck. No problem! You're good at doing that. Just because other folks wouldn't consider implementing your complex, slightly convoluted plan doesn't mean it won't work. It's as if the obstacle you're up against is on wheels. When you push it, it will move. Even if its direction of travel isn't perfect, if you're determined, and are prepared to adapt your modus operandi, you'll prove all the naysayers wrong... and find a way to steer it towards the best possible outcome.
CAPRICORN
It's not only our tastes that change over time. Our bodies change too. Few of us are able to easily slip into a pair of jeans from the past. If we rummage in the back of our wardrobes, we might even find that clothes we'd previously rejected as being too 'formal' are appropriate now that we're more mature. A similar principle can be applied to our attitude to life. Today brings an opportunity to re-examine an idea you once rejected. At the time, it seemed inappropriate. But your situation has evolved. Now, it's the perfect fit.
AQUARIUS
You've got something on your list of 'things to do' that you want to do, but somehow, never get round to doing. Although it's something positive, the fact you're not actioning it is, in a strange way, changing the way you think about it - it's almost become a millstone around your neck. But maybe, it's simply not meant to be... yet. Take the pressure off today. Subconsciously, you know the time isn't right. Celebrate your receptivity and have faith that when the time is nigh, you'll know that it's action time. Until then, relax.
PISCES
You've got the outline of an idea in your mind, but for some reason, you're avoiding adding the details. After all, is there any point bothering to do that when you know what the finished product will look like? Isn't that a waste of your precious time? Yet theory and reality are never quite the same. And your idea is good. And since it deserves to be implemented, it's worth fleshing it out. Today brings a chance to share the bones of your plans. The enthusiasm of the response will give you the motivation you've been lacking.
