Aries - March 21 - April 19
Mars, your ruling planet, is slowing down and will turn retrograde from Dec. 21 to March 2010. Mars rules passion, the ability to satisfy ego drives, and physical energy. Expect to find yourself contemplating your approach to life during this time. You may manifest powerful creative intelligence. Your energy needs to be directed with discrimination, so pick a day this month to establish goals for 2010. Then map how you will follow them monthly and weekly.
Taurus - April 20 - May 20
Until we open the door to others, it is really hard to pass favors back and forth. Take one person this month that usually makes you feel exasperated and challenge yourself to look deeper. It is bad karma to put a smile on your face and think nasty thoughts, so why not surrender to love? That person who annoyed you may just hold the key to your future, so release the blinders of negativity so you can grasp it.
Gemini - May 21 - June 20
Everything that is released as speech carries a certain vibration that can lift us up or halt our evolution. Negative comments or opinions are easy to make, but solutions require true genius. Your words have added power during the second week of the month, so start talking about solutions if you bring up something you don’t like. Bring up solutions for other people’s negativity and lift them up also — show them a better way.
Cancer - June 21 - July 22
You may want to explore the relationship between food and your emotional state of being. In other parts of the world, people regularly fast in order to achieve greater union with higher aspects of themselves and ultimately the Divine. Start with one day a month. Why not the full moon, when energies are at their peak? By taking teas and simple fruits, we are clearer to receive and transmit power that is far greater than a piece of cake can provide.
Leo - July 23 - Aug. 22
Leo rules the heart, and with Mars in this sign, this centre is being activated. There is an abundance of energy available for those who tap into it. The heart centre is the source of higher emotions, of wisdom and of truth. Whenever you need to make a decision, press four fingers above the bottom of your breastbone, breathe, and wait. Don’t give the solar plexus a chance to reach the brain and distort what will do the most good.
Virgo - Aug. 23 - Sept. 22
The holiday season can be hectic if things aren’t organized. You would do best to set aside a half-hour during the first week to plan what has to be done around the home to maintain your sanity. Living on the fly won’t help you hit any targets right now. If you are planning on entertaining, things should run relatively smoothly for you. Your ruler Mercury turns retrograde on Dec. 27 for three weeks, so take care of all car repairs and correspondence before then.

Libra - Sept.23 - Oct. 22
There is a tendency in our culture to learn one thing and then move onto something else. We may only retain five per cent of what we actually ingest. How often do we revisit something we think we know and look for deeper levels of truth? Perhaps it is time to pull an old book off the shelf and go back to it. You will also benefit this month from trying to teach something you want to understand more deeply to someone else.
Scorpio - Oct. 23 - Nov. 21
For the first three weeks of this month, you may be thinking a lot about self-worth. Does everything you are surrounded by accurately reflect who you are? With your ruler Mars turning retrograde from Dec. 21 till mid-March, you may revisit how you are approaching your life goals. Whatever you have been avoiding or have not wanted to deal with may surface now. Energy will now be directed inward so you can cleanse out what does not sustain you.
Sagitarius - Nov. 22 - Dec. 21
There are periods of our year ruled by different planetary energies, and the first 52 days after our birthdays are ruled by the sun. This is a time to start something new, or ask for financial assistance, so put yourself out there. You are more likely to receive at this time than any other. Think of how you feel when the sun shines on your face. That is the pervading energy that will warm the fabric of your life.
Capricorn-Dec. 22 - Jan. 19
We all have some aspect of our lives that lives in the shadows—a character trait, skill or behaviour that we are not so proud of. This self-doubt can hinder our ability to take risks and leave us stagnant with fear. One way to help overcome this is to take that particular trait and bless everyone with its positive counterpart. If you no longer want to voice negative words, bless everyone, including the higher beings, with positive speech.
Aquarius - Jan. 20 - Feb. 18
Creativity will run high for you if you put yourself out into groups this month, particularly during the first three weeks. An unexpected relationship may develop around Dec. 20, which is likely to burn hot and then burn out. Energy may be low during the holidays, so keep your plans pleasant and simple. This may not be the year for gathering with bothersome relatives. If you have no choice, remember to exude love instead of judgment.
Pisces - Feb. 19 - March 20
People will tend to say kind things about you this month. Positive reinforcement is one of the best tools to spur growth, so absorb all the love and gratitude you can hold. This solstice is especially powerful for you, as your ruler Jupiter is in conjunction with the planet of spirituality, Neptune. As explained in Cancer, this is an excellent day for fasting and prayer. This is one of the four most powerful days of the year and should be respected as such. |
