Daily Astrocast Archives 2011
Date	Overview
1-01-2011 Saturday	Butting heads with an authority figure, a bureaucracy, or some other resistance is likely today with delusions or perhaps even deliberate deception with regard to love or money equally possible. Encountering a rather annoying know-it-all is also likely to cause some friction. On the positive side, a pleasant surprise of a romantic nature may come your way, but be careful you don't read more into it than the person intends.
1-02-2011 Sunday	Expect rules, regulations, a bureaucracy or authority figure to get between you and something you want and probably have plenty to say about it as well. Even if you're not usually rebellious, this will be enough to get you going with a high and mighty attitude and thoughts of revenge, which could ultimately get you in a lot of trouble. On the other hand, this could simply apply to watching football Bowl Game replays, in which case your best bet is to have another beer and call it good.
1-03-2011 Monday	A major infatuation could grab your today, but bear in mind that you're not seeing things clearly so don't do anything you'll regret later. Annoying news or conversations are possible, especially with those authority figures who have been such a nuisance lately as far as keeping your from doing what you want to do, so avoid such circumstances if you possibly can. Choose your battles and save that silver bullet for a more important issue.
1-04-2011 Tuesday New Moon/Solar Eclipse	Solar Eclipse today as described in your monthly horoscope for your sign. This eclipse is a member of the 13 North family of the Saros Series and generally pertains to major group projects. This particular eclipse will be visible in a narrow arc that starts in Algeria, crosses Spain and France, the Scandinavian countries and end in western Russia. Those within and below the eclipse path will be most affected. This eclipse is likely to affect Western Europe's economic situation by calling attention to the lack of fiscal responsibility in some way.
1-05-2011 Wednesday	Unexpected and potentially disruptive news is possible, perhaps simply at the philosophical level. In other words you may find out something that upsets your personal applecart in some way and gets you all riled up. Delusions or deception with regard to love or money continues as a possibility and if you're throwing your weight around make sure it's on a treadmill and not to your boss or someone else in authority. Don't be afraid of trying something different or thinking outside the box since that holds promise of something good.
1-06-2011 Thursday	The potential for unexpected news or a major brainstorm remain, though a challenge is likely to be attached as well. Continue to keep an eye on your wallet and don't think those authorities figures, whatever form they may take, are any friendlier because they're not. On the positive side, if you're financially challenged this is a favorable time to hunt down some innovative solutions but be sure to keep them within the boundaries of legality.
1-07-2011 Friday	There's a healthy mix out there today with opportunities, challenges and a few good surprises, though you may have to look for them specifically. Challenges include philosophical differences or new information which brings thoughts of breaking away from something, including a belief or expectation. Keep your eyes and ears open for opportunities, perhaps in a pleasant setting such as chitchatting with friends where something comes to light, maybe simply a new idea, which will be beneficial if you take action on it, obstacles notwithstanding. Beware of delusions with regard to love or money by not believing everything you hear.
1-08-2011 Saturday	This is an excellent day to get in touch with something from your past which is waiting to be resolved. Consider all sides of the story, how it has affected you and what you need to do to let it go. Take the time to ponder the situation and inspiration will come with regard to what needs to be done, if you don't already know. You may not like everything that comes to mind but don't discount it without giving it full consideration.
1-09-2011 Sunday	If any of your relationships are presenting a bit of a challenge, look for a change of course today. Restrictions and boundaries are still apparent with little encouraging news or ideas. If you want to move forward you're going to have to put your imagination into overdrive and be willing to move forward in a way that may seem strange, but is likely to provide significant results.
1-10-2011 Monday	Arguments are highly likely today, particularly with anyone you think is telling you want you can or cannot do. It's a fairly favorable day for love and money, but don't be too impulsive or you'll regret it later. What for an opportunity to move forward with something new and different in some phase of your life. Annoyances are likely as well from people who are loud and obnoxious, delusional or rebellious.
1-11-2011 Tuesday	Unexpected news, conversations or ideas are still out there which may present a few challenges or annoyances. Beware of anyone you could classify as a "snake oil salesman" because what you see is probably not what you get. On the positive side, it's a good day to have lunch with your sweetie, but continue to avoid anyone who has authority over you. There could be some surprise opportunities which require disciplined action and inspiration is possible, provided they don't have anything that involves snake oil.
1-12-2011 Wednesday	Getting along with anyone with some measure of control or authority over you has probably been a bit dicey this week and today is definitely not going to improve things. You will want to be left alone and have your own way with any unwelcome instructions likely to be rather annoying. This will be particularly true if someone who meets that description hunts you down and gives you something to do or pontificates on something. It's still a good day for daydreaming, however, and keep watching for those unique opportunities. You may encounter someone annoying from your past today, perhaps and hopefully only in memory.
1-13-2011 Thursday	You may receive sudden or unexpected news or possibly an idea today which indicates a change of course related to love or money. Opportunities to take appropriate action will present themselves so pay attention and do what you have to do. Annoyances and irritations are out there as well which will further prod you on in a slightly different direction than before.
1-14-2011 Friday	You head and heart should be in synch today, making it easier to make any hard decisions that may present themselves. Unexpected or disruptive news continues with opportunities to take appropriate action still there if you keep your eyes open. Life is increasingly interesting these days which requires more than passive attention.
1-15-2011 Saturday	Trust your instincts today to process data at a level you can trust and then proceed in a logical fashion to make any necessary adjustments to a work in progress. Continue to watch for surprise opportunities to show your stuff, following your instincts there as well, though you are likely to encounter some opposition along the way.
1-16-2011 Sunday	This is a favorable day for logical, clear-headed choices or decisions, though they may result in some conflict with someone close to you. If you haven't found any opportunities beckoning, continue to keep watch. Feed your inspiration with a comfortable mix of solitude and networking and see what comes out of it. Pondering and understanding past issues is favored for the next few days so if you have something in that department to deal with, take advantage of this helping hand from the cosmos.
1-17-2011 Monday	This is a good day to tackle mental tasks and anything that requires a logical approach. However, if you have any old unresolved issues from the past that have deep emotional scars this is not an approach that will ultimately solve the problem, though it may help you to see the other side of the story. A change of course with regard to something you've been pursuing is likely but don't worry, you'll come up with something better as a result.
1-18-2011 Tuesday	Today will be more emotional than yesterday with any obstacles likely to be more frustrating than usual. Love or money issues may require a change of course. There are various opportunities out there, still, though some will take quite a bit of work to get off the ground. Nonetheless, give them serious thought.
1-19-2011 Wednesday Full Moon	Full Moon today as described in your monthly horoscope. The Moon is definitely interacting with a variety of planets and being in its dignity in Cancer will contribute to your emotions at this time. While it's not always a good thing to allow your emotions to rule your life, they can sometimes be a much more reliable barometer than logic alone. You may be headed in a direction that really isn't right for you, so if your heart is trying to push you in a different direction, take time to listen. No matter how impossible it may seem, believing in the Universe and its ability to assist you in your life, pay significant dividends.
1-20-2011 Thursday	The transits today are concentrated in three conjunctions which will blend the energies of the planets involved. These will affect your thoughts and ideas, which will be deeper and more perceptive than usual and particularly useful for uncovering previously hidden information; a strong drive to move forward, perhaps in a humanitarian way as the Sun enters Aquarius; and the ongoing expansion of unique ideas which break away from the status quo. Watch for opportunities along these lines, even if it requires a lot of imagination to push it forward.
1-21-2011 Friday	This is a great day to take some time to do something you want to do that serves as a bit of an escape mechanism, inspiration, or simply an excursion into a fantasy world, provided you recognize it for what it is. Along those lines, make sure you don't fall for any delusions, self-induced or otherwise. If there's something you've been trying to pursue, a change of course may be evident. If you have any friends in high places, now is a good time to call in a favor.
1-22-2011 Saturday	This may be a bit of a challenging day as far as romance or a loved one is concerned. Avoid being critical and concentrate more on common goals than your own ambitions. Describing how you feel about something in detail is favored, but make sure it's spoken in a positive way. Jupiter changes signs today which will change his energy from the dreamy vibes of Pisces to the "git 'r' dun!" vibes of Aries. Continue to keep an eye out for opportunities, even if they'll take a bit of effort to bring to fruition.
1-23-2011 Sunday	The Moon is still stirring thing up, perhaps by nitpicking something you really thought you wanted to pursue until you ultimately give up and go back to the drawing board. Conflicts and restrictions can be annoying and discouraging, but this, of course, is not a bad thing as opposed to going down the wrong path. On the other hand, sometimes you just need to suck it up and deal with it. There are opportunities out there as well, however, so be sure to spend some time listening with an open mind.
1-24-2011 Monday	If there are any situations in your life where your view oscillates between fairness and revenge, you're likely to find yourself caught there again. It's a favorable day to discuss responsibilities related to relationships and also a favorable day to take action on something, perhaps a group effort that needs to get off the ground. If you're looking for inspiration you're likely to find it but don't think it won't involve some serious effort to make it so.
1-25-2011 Tuesday	News of restrictions or limitations, perhaps self-imposed, are still active. If you have something you really want to do, but are having doubts or a confidence crisis, maybe it's time to go back to your dreams and remember why you wanted it in the first place. It may not be easy, but anything worth while seldom is. Get rid of any old baggage holding you back and take action today, no matter how small the step may be. Saturn goes retrograde tomorrow which is bound to throw a few delays in the way so do what you can today.
1-26-2011 Wednesday	The bureaucratic wheels just started turning backwards as Saturn his annual backward trek. Delays and obstacles are likely during this time which will last longer than you'd prefer. Frustration at being held back from doing something is likely to be on the rise but you're not very likely to win against a planet so you'd do best to figure out something else to concentrate on in the meantime. Various ideas are floating around out there that probably pass by with no more notice than the clouds in the sky. Thus, unless you're already situated in Nirvana, you may want to pay closer attention.
1-27-2011 Thursday	The challenges are out there today, which certainly isn't any big surprise. Bumping into obstacles, restrictions and delays are inevitable. These could come about because you had unrealistic expectations about something, perhaps simply the timeline portion of it. Now is an excellent time to reassess what you really want in life and what you can do today to move in that direction. Maybe it won't take any more than an attitude adjustment. Think about it.
1-28-2011 Friday	If you're feeling as if you're being held back, make sure you're not doing it to yourself by your own negative thoughts. They say that pessimists are more logical and accurate in their assessments than optimists, yet optimists accomplish more because they don't let negative thoughts get in their way. This is a favorable time to give someone else a helping hand which will help build your confidence as well as possibly open up some networking opportunities.
1-29-2011 Saturday	This is a favorable day to expand your horizons in some way, perhaps by visiting a museum either in person or virtually. Continue to examine your own attitude for any perceived obstacles, particularly if you're one of those people who objects to change. Unless you're entirely satisfied with the status quo, it's usually worth consideration. Take a close look at whatever is holding you back and its roots if you're stuck in the mud and want to get out.
1-30-2011 Sunday	This could be a challenging day so, if possible, try not to plan anything that could invite uncomfortable situations. The potential for unexpected encounters with your past is high along with a substantial emotional impact. If you're willing to put in the effort, fruitful conversation could result and it's also a good day to do some daydreaming or looking for an innovative solution or two. Wanting to move forward with something may be making you antsy, but delays and obstacles are likely for several weeks.
1-31-2011 Monday	If you make up your mind to get something done, regardless of anything that might get in your way, you can make some serious progress. It's also a good day to ponder any goals you may have with regard to love and money. If you have anything that is worn out and past its usefulness, start working on getting the motivation to do something with it. Consider it as making room for a new form of abundance to come into your life.
2-01-2011 Tuesday	If you need permission from someone before moving forward with a project, either of your own or involving a group, this is a favorable time to pursue it, though delays may occur before getting a response. Those of the female persuasion may be a bit moodier or unpredictable than usual today though it also happens to be a good day to talk about it. If possible, find some time to relax, unwind, and do something you enjoy, which will help you figure a few things out and perhaps even provide some inspiration.
2-02-2011 Wednesday New Moon	New Moon this evening, which is described in detail in your monthly horoscope. On a mundane level, this lunation looks as if it will bring strong, directed action on a group level as a result of a public announcement that brings about a sudden change in the collective consciousness, a.k.a. the general tone of public opinion and sentiment. Retrograde Saturn is busy working at restructuring something which will likely be the focus of group in question. Dirt from the past will play a part as well and put a damper of sorts on forward progress until its resolved.
2-03-2011 Thursday	Those New Moon aspects haven't changed much with the energy pouring into retrograde Saturn much the same. Remember that the purpose of Saturn RX is to restructure something, though you may not have a clue what it might be until mid-June. There is a possibility that it has to do with one or more of your close relationships so this is one place to keep an eye on for anything that is dysfunctional or could be improved in some way. If you're an authority figure, you should be looking at your management style and whether you would do well to listen to your underlings for ways to improve.
2-04-2011 Friday	Keep your eyes and ears peeled for an opportunity to come to grips with something from your past. That is not to say or imply that it will be easy to do so or particularly fun, but the chances of a favorable outcome are reasonably worth the effort. Taking action with regard to a group project or something that involves an organization is favored. If you never got around to making any New Years' Resolutions, it's also actually a good time to give that some thought since the year is still young. Take a look at areas in your life where you know you should make some improvements and start there.
2-05-2011 Saturday	Your emotions may be closer to the surface today which is often a favorable time to commit yourself to do something you've lacked the motivation for in the past. With the Mars and Sun snuggled up it's a time when your energy should be higher than usual. Challenges related to love or money are out there, some past, some present. If you want to clean up such messes once and for all, make sure you identify what really caused it in the first place.
2-06-2011 Sunday	If there is something in your life that you know needs a good overhaul and new approach, this is an excellent day to take some steps in that direction. Obstacles abound with regard to love and money but that doesn't mean you shouldn't tackle them. It's an excellent day for brainstorming and networking, so this is not a day when isolating yourself will help your situation. Listen to your heart and be open to inspiration, especially if logical solutions elude you.
2-07-2011 Monday	Now is a favorable time to be thinking about where you need to institute more discipline in your life. Unless you have everything under perfect control, there is undoubtedly some part of your life where you're a little too indulgent, sloppy, or extravagant. The planets are rooting for you at this time to get a grip on any self-defeating behaviors that may be holding you back in some way. Take a good, hard, honest look at anything you know needs improvement and take some steps to correct while the energy is in your favor.
2-08-2011 Tuesday	If something or someone is holding you back it will be more frustrating than usual today. You will want to move forward and find such obstacles totally unacceptable. Rather than employing a full frontal assault, take the time to determine exactly what the problem is and then direct that energy in a more productive way by eliminating the problems in a logical, systematic manner.
2-09-2011 Wednesday	There are some very favorable vibes out there today which can be utilized to manifest something you've wanted for a long time, particularly if its a group effort. This may only be the beginning, but remember that every journey, regardless of length, begins with a single step. The path may seem a bit strange or foggy, but don't be afraid to put in the needed work to figure it out. Believing in your ability to make it so is essential, so rid yourself of any old baggage which may be holding you back.
2-10-2011 Thursday	There will be a tendency to dig in your heels today and resist anything that runs contrary to your personal views, thus requiring a change of course. Issues or annoyances may arise due to misunderstandings or not paying attention, so be sure you're listening carefully or you may regret it later. Moving forward with something you want is still favored, so these obstacles, while challenging, are highly likely to improve your original plan, so look beyond the obvious before getting torqued.
2-11-2011 Friday	Be wary of anything that sounds too good to be true, especially if it's something like a get-rich-quick scheme or some other lure related to your security. While innovation, thinking outside the box and originality are all legitimate approaches and can hold promise, don't think that you'll be able to get to the top with earning it. If you have a bit of an entitlement attitude, which seems rather pervasive these days, you may find yourself confronting a potentially hard lesson if you persist.
2-12-2011 Saturday	This is a very favorable day to think something through or make a decision that requires logic as opposed to emotion even though it may relate to a dream you want to pursue. While I'm generally a person who recommends going with your heart, there are some decisions best made with your head; the ideal is when they both agree. In this case, it looks as if your heart may be what has to do the adjusting but in the long run this will bring the best results. Also take a good, hard look at anything that might be holding you back.
2-13-2011 Sunday	Today looks like an excellent day to get together with your friends. A simple get-together would be great, but if there is some group project to be tackled or even conceived, this would be a very favorable time to start planning. Be sure to pay attention to any lessons learned from past endeavors or being so anxious to move forward that you don't take sufficient time to prepare properly. Communications are favored so this shouldn't be much of a problem.
2-14-2011 Monday	Happy Valentines Day, if such is celebrated in your part of the world. There isn't much that's romantic about today's transits, however, so you're on your own in that department. If anything, family responsibilities may interfere with any plans you may have had. With the Sun quickly moving into conjunction with Neptune, seeing things clearly may be difficult for the next week or so. It will be a favorable time for fantasizing or putting your imagination to work, which will work particularly nicely for artists, but you more logical types are likely to go around muttering spinnst du, a very handy little German phrase which means approximately "What are/were you thinking?" Put it to good use.
2-15-2011 Tuesday	You are likely to change your mind about something today that relates to attaining one of your goals. There is a tight cluster of planets in Aquarius these days which is putting a lot of energy into groups, organizations, networking, getting together with your friends and pursuing those things you can't do alone. Expect the unexpected and don't believe everything you see or hear, but don't automatically dismiss something that sounds too far-out without gathering the facts.
2-16-2011 Wednesday	Keep putting all that Aquarian energy to work with networking, starting group projects or even a new organization. Making connections is favored so now is not the time to be shy. If you're holding yourself back, now is also the time to identify any self-defeating behaviors and eradicate them so you can move forward. Remember that if you're happy you'll do a better job of taking care of your loved ones versus being a martyr. Make any adjustments such that you can place your happiness on par with everyone else.
2-17-2011 Thursday	You may feel a bit lazy and dreamy today making it a favorable time to relax and ponder what you really want out of life. If it seems as if your wants and needs always wind up at the bottom of the heap, consider why that always happens and how you contribute to the situation. Everyone needs some "me" time to recharge and neglecting this will eventually catch up with you and demand attention, perhaps in a rather imposing way. Treat yourself kindly today and consider what you need to do to achieve more balance in your life, for your good as well as the others around you.
2-18-2011 Friday Full Moon	Full Moon today which is described in detail in your monthly horoscope. The general theme of this one involves a lot of opposition between your personal wants and needs versus those of the various "others" in your life. In other words, you may find yourself having to forego what you want due to various demands. This is an excellent time for retrospection into how you budget your time. If you consistently find yourself on the short end of the stick, maybe it's time to do something about it.
2-19-2011 Saturday	The goes into Pisces today so expect to feel a shift in the energy around you. This 12th sign of the Zodiac tends to be peaceful, dreamy, and charitable on the positive side and deceptive, delusional and undermining on the negative. Other influences out there include encountering an issue related to responsibility either as it relates to a loved one or perhaps your possessions, especially money. Depending on which side of the discussion you are, don't be overly critical or defensive and you should be able to find a suitable solution.
2-20-2011 Sunday	Conflict of one sort or another is likely today. If you want to take action on something which will expand your horizons, it is very likely that a relationship is going to give you pause. This, in turn, will probably resurrect some old issues from your past which will make you feel limited or restricted in one way or another. In other words, something you really want to do is not going to be nearly as simple as you would like. With the Sun in Pisces and a close stellium in Aquarius, expect some idealistic and humanitarian issues to get in your way.
2-21-2011 Monday	Relationship issues such as control issues, responsibility or limitations are likely to arise today in one form or another. For example, one person may want more personal freedom and the other is not willing to let go, whether it involves, parents and children, a committed relationship or even business partners. While contention or arguments are almost inevitable, this is nonetheless a favorable time to address the matter in an innovative way and strive to arrive at a solution favorable to everyone.
2-22-2011 Tuesday	You're going to change your mind about something, take a new approach, or otherwise develop a new outlook. This may require stretching your intellectual muscles a bit but listen and watch carefully to what is going on around you for clues. Avoid moving too quickly in an undefined direction, however, or you may encounter an explosion.
2-23-2011 Wednesday	This is an excellent day to examine your goals, determine what, if anything, is holding you back, watching for inspiration wherever you might find it, which may include the most unexpected places, and eliminating anything that may be holding you back. That's a pretty full agenda, but when you get that finished up, celebrate for whatever small victories you may have gained with someone you love.
2-24-2011 Thursday	The Moon will be messing with you today in one way or another. For example, if you're in a dreamy mood or indulging in some fantasizing, expect someone to do their best to set you straight in what could be a high and mighty manner. Of course you could also be doing this to yourself by "shoulding" on yourself and not believing you could possibly accomplish what you want. If this is the case, take a serious look at your lack of faith in your own ability or anything from your past which is holding you back. Get rid of any old baggage you're toting around and you may surprise yourself with what you can do.
2-25-2011 Friday	Yesterday's tension should be gone for the most part with a few interesting things to ponder coming out of it. If you got back in tune with your dreams and put aside the naysayers, including that part of you that tends to keep you stuck where you are, think about who can help you get what you want. Someone from your past may come your way today and provide the inspiration or information you need so whatever you do don't isolate yourself.
2-26-2011 Saturday	Don't let the facts keep you from enjoying yourself for a while today, especially if you could benefit from relaxing for a bit. It's a favorable time to do some daydreaming, particularly if you're longing to escape for a while. If you're the creative type, helpful vibes are out there for your next or current project. Research is favored as well especially for finding something previously unavailable. Just for the record, if you're wondering how that Aries Jupiter square Capricorn Pluto is operating, just turn on the news to see some ways in which this classic military versus establishment energy is influencing people around the world.
2-27-2011 Sunday	If there is something you want to do in a big way you'll be discouraged about doing so today as old baggage or other restrictions get in your way. This is simply part of the normal process of birthing something so don't let it get you down. Assume an optimistic attitude, refuse to dismiss your dream, and do your homework and you should be able to find a way to make it so.
2-28-2011 Monday	A long-term influence you can watch for is something holding your back from your past that relates to a major change you want to move toward. Bear in mind that progress is unlikely until you dump this millstone around your neck so give it serious thought. It won't be a cakewalk to pursue your dreams, there is no doubt it will take effort and innovation, but keep an eye out and you may encounter an unexpected helping hand.
3-01-2011 Tuesday	Expect some news today which gives you pause and could necessitate a change of direction. That Jupiter - Pluto square is stirring things up, most likely causing some resistance with regard to something you want to do which could relate to money and show up in the form of aggression from an authority figure who's dead-set against it. In spite of how things appear, opportunities are out there, you just may have to dig a bit to find them.
3-02-2011 Wednesday	Expanding your horizons right now is probably like dragging a giant boulder along for the ride. Now is the time to not give up but change directions slightly to figure out something that will work. This will require innovation and perhaps some help (or a loan) from one of your friends. Use your imagination, don't be discouraged, and put all the force and determination behind it that it deserves.
3-03-2011 Thursday	If you're having a hard time concentrating and feel somewhat dreamy and lazy of late you can blame all those planets cruising along in Pisces. Making headway is just about anything continues to be like driving with the brakes on. Be sure to look beneath the surface for the reason, using both your heart and your head. A different approach is required if you want to make any progress and until you do you're sitting right in the middle of that snowball in hell domain.
3-04-2011 Friday New Moon	New Moon today, putting a whole bunch of energy into dreamy Pisces. The horoscope is looking mighty lopsided lately. All that Piscean energy especially can make you dreamy, unmotivated and even a bit melancholy as you ponder the various problems in the world from an individual to collective level. Saturn is telling us that we need to restructure our sense of fairness and go in a different direction than we have been while we deal with and eliminate past mistakes if we're to move forward. If you think about it, it's not rocket science.
3-05-2011 Saturday	Not much has changed since yesterday other than giving you another chance to ponder all that Piscean energy and how it feels. By the end of the month Mercury and Uranus will move into Aries giving you the chance to think about how that energy shift feels for you. The more you can tune into the planets' respective energies the better you can manage it in your life. Astrology gives you the tools you need to be in the driver's seat and use the energy in a lucid, methodical way. If you don't, all bets are off and it will use you.
3-06-2011 Sunday	Any disputes you're having with authority figures are likely to reach a crescendo and possibly require a change of direction that entails a less direct approach. Remember to choose your battles and that there are some that you simply cannot win, no matter how "right" you happen to be. However, rest assured that Pluto in Capricorn will unearth all the corruption and dirty deeds perpetrated by those in high office whether in government or corporations. Karma cannot be denied. You may lose the battle but ultimately will win the war.
3-07-2011 Monday	If you've had your head in the clouds lately today may bring a rude awakening which forces you to change directions. Power struggles are still extant with obstacles as plentiful as bad debts at Fannie Mae. Digging your way out of a hole these days is not going to be easy. However, all those planets in Pisces should be able to bring some form of inspiration your way. Flashes of insight, inspired ideas, or a new sense of direction are all possible but you're going to have to think outside the box to find them.
3-08-2011 Tuesday	If you haven't encountered a power struggle of some description lately today may be the day. Or maybe you're the one on the power trip and therefore didn't notice. Obstacles between you and your dreams are a dime a dozen these days as one disruptive or discouraging things after another comes along. Today is a good one to meet someone new, however, or perhaps map out a new means for reaching your financial goals. A female friend may be able to offer some good ideas.
3-09-2011 Wednesday	Mercury goes into Aries today which is likely to make your conversations a bit more feisty than previously. The inclination will be to talk first and think about it later. It's a favorable day to confront any obstacles with regard to your material security. Consider what is standing in your way and what is required to get around it or better yet, alleviate it. Remember that Saturn is retrograde until mid-June so delays are highly likely until then, anyway, but it doesn't hurt to figure things out.
3-10-2011 Thursday	If you are striving to move forward with something to expand your horizons but feel as if you're being held back by something, you're right. Retrograde Saturn has you by the seat of the pants and is trying to tell you you're forgetting something. Some old hang-up or issue from your past needs to be resolved and you probably know it but are hoping it will go away if you ignore it long enough. If you're not sure how to take care of business, find a good friend to brainstorm with and you should get some ideas, but it's going to take some effort regardless.
3-11-2011 Friday	Logic should prevail today which can be quite useful if you have a problem to solve where this is the best approach. Sometimes this works for emotional issues, sometimes not. This, of course, is the root of numerous relationship issues, when one person is more emotional or logical than the other. This has nothing to do with gender but with your Moon Sign in your Natal Chart as well as your Progressed Moon Sign, which changes every two and a half years. If your emotional nature has changed lately, this is more than likely the cause.
3-12-2011 Saturday	Considerations with regard to something that requires logic are favored early today. Make good use of it, even though what you come up with is likely to create a conflict between your mind and heart. Old issues may create a few challenges today, but opportunities to get past them are there as well. Trying to move forward will be particularly frustrated by delays, which will unfortunately be in effect until June, at least. There are now three planets in Aries which should be revving everyone up a bit. Use the energy wisely and try not to be too impulsive.
3-13-2011 Sunday	Colliding with something or someone from your past is likely today which will result in a rather unpleasant conversation that relates to ethics in some way. Until you get it resolved, moving forward with something you want to pursue will be next to impossible. Now is the time to think back to some of the things your mother taught you that may not have made sense at the time but will now.
3-14-2011 Monday	Conflicts, perhaps within your extended family, that relate to ethics are on the agenda today. If one of those involved is being a bit too stubborn a change of course will be required before you can make any progress. Fairness is recommended on all sides with revenge and other motives which go back a long way to unresolved issues counter-productive to peaceful resolution. Uranus, planet of rebellion and freedom, slipped into Aries yesterday which will stir things up even more with delusions hailing through his sextile to Neptune clouding the truth even further. Above all else, don't contribute to the fray even if it means walking away quietly and slowly.
3-15-2011 Tuesday	If you've had your head in the sand like the proverbial ostrich, it's time to get a grip and face the music. Discussions relative to the past are not likely to go entirely smoothly but that doesn't mean that you can't accomplish a lot by getting things out on the table. While an unexpected situation may precipitate this particularly conversation, you may finally reach that point where whatever it takes is better than continuing to drag it around.
3-16-2011 Wednesday	Expressing yourself will come easily today but you may not like all the fallout if you don't tone it down a bit. It will be a bit too easy to come off as aggressive and obnoxious so if possible, wait a few days, at least. Consider your approach, run it past a trusted and especially stable friend, then rehearse a few times to make sure you stick to the script. As a reminder that you have two ears and one mouth, think back to previous situation where you've sounded off and lived to regret it. If you keep on doing what you've always done, you'll keep on getting what you've always got....
3-17-2011 Thursday	If you have a big idea you're anxious to get off the ground don't be surprised if you encounter one delay after another over the next few months. Rather than get all frustrated, accept it as the way it is and make the necessary adjustments to your plans and most importantly your attitude. If you haven't yet figured out that what you want and what you get are not always the same, at least learn to trust the Universe. When things don't work out the way you want there's a lesson there which is often simply the fact you never believed it would happen. Think about it.
3-18-2011 Friday	A few complications are out there today, particularly if you're trying to express yourself to someone like your boss, a government figure, i.e. bureaucrat, or some other person who really doesn't give a flip about your situation. Remember that they really don't care about you at all so stick to the facts, avoid aggression and overwhelm them with details such that they'll do just about anything to get rid of you. Playing nice and dumb will get you farther than being a bully. Really.
3-19-2011 Saturday Full Moon	Full Moon today and a big one known as a Super Moon due to the fact the Moon itself is about as close to the Earth as it can get. This lunation is not particularly friendly, neither the three planets in Aries with the Sun soon to follow suit. Expect to have to modify some of your plans, particularly if they weren't realistic to begin with or perhaps you didn't have sufficient vision to pull them off. The world is a crazy place these days, so your best bet is probably to brace yourself and hope for the best.
3-20-2011 Sunday	Today's chart isn't very friendly so you'd do well to take the concept of Sunday being a day of rest literally. Otherwise you may get into it with someone in authority and derive nothing but frustration from the experience. Whatever you do, stay away from water with the Sun and Neptune in bad degrees that signify endings. Uranus just went into Aries a few days ago which will unleash all that explosive energy in a sign know for aggression; if nothing else this doesn't bode well for the situation in Japan.
3-21-2011 Monday	The prospects for negotiating something with an authority figure, bureaucracy or corporate figure continue to look dismal. However, there may be some big surprises today that necessitate some adjustment which overshadow other issues. The Sun went into Aries, joining Uranus, Jupiter and Mercury, which puts a whole bunch of energy into an already energetic sign. Take a look at the world around you and consider what you hold nearest and dearest to your heart. Then act accordingly.
3-22-2011 Tuesday	Surprises and disruptions are still on the agenda and likely to get your attention in one way or another. The "powers that be" are still being difficult, which isn't going to change anytime soon. Emotional adjustments to your circumstances are advisable, particularly any that relate to money. This is a favorable time to share some dreams and aspirations with one or more loved ones, but don't take them too seriously or you may set yourself up for disappointment.
3-23-2011 Wednesday	Today's chart looks like a game of laser tag. If there are any old issues out there with regard to a past relationship that involved deceit you may stumble upon them today in a surprising way and have a tremendous urge to get even due to the fact the anger it will provoke will run deep. This kind of behavior is definitely not recommended, so if this happens to come about for you your best bet is to find a good friend to dump on instead.
3-24-2011 Thursday	This is an excellent day to indulge in some brain candy of some form. Visit a library, museum or historical site and learn about something new. Better yet, take someone you love along with you and really get into the fantasy side of things. Imagine yourself in another land or time and consider what it really felt like to live in different circumstances. Expanding your life in other ways is like driving with the brakes on with delays and frustrations the norm these days you you may as well indulge your imagination, which you can control.
3-25-2011 Friday	Delays, delays, delays coupled with daily frustrations when nothing works right or as planned certainly can get on your nerves after a while. Resolving old, buried issues continues to nag at many as they rear their ugly head in one way or another long after you thought they were dead and gone. If you're so lucky not to be dealing with anything like that, congratulations because assumably you took care of them already. Watch for a lively conversation today about something new which should at least give you something interesting to think about.
3-26-2011 Saturday	Expanding anything today, whether its your finances, love life, education or job prospects, is likely to meet some resistance, even if its the passive-aggressive variety in the form of delays. If you've been hitting obstacles your entire life this will stir up memories of past situations which will probably result in your beating yourself up while your head and heart go in different directions. If you feel like a loser, the first thing you need to do is adjust your attitude because the Universe will consistently deliver what you expect and believe you deserve or will get.
3-27-2011 Sunday	Expressing your emotions today is going to be difficult with your true feelings likely to be colder than they appear if they come out as something resembling a nuclear blast. Frustrations are everywhere, regardless of what your personal situation happens to be. There is more energy than time, more frustrations than patience, and more annoying people than friends. While all those planets including the Sun are marching through Aries this will probably be the case with some relief coming in slightly less than a month when the Sun goes into Taurus. Don't even think about the fact that Mercury goes retrograde in a few days. :-(
3-28-2011 Monday	Encountering something from your past that is holding you back in some way is quite likely today, particularly if any of the planets in your natal chart are at 7 degrees. Resolving this issue is likely to present a challenge and your best efforts will still meet with delays before your goal is accomplished. However, if the time is right as far as your heart is concerned to rid yourself of this albatross, then you're well-advised to start the process, even though it will be a while before resolution is complete. Just initiating the process, whatever it may be, will make you feel better.
3-29-2011 Tuesday	If you've been neglecting your friends a bit because things have been so crazy lately today is a good day to get in touch with one or more of these individuals and get together. There is a lot to catch up on and besides moral support you may actually be able to help each other define your personal goals or make some needed connections. This brainstorming may also reveal that you're on the wrong path and need to regroup. With Mercury going retrograde tomorrow you'll have three weeks to do just that.
3-30-2011 Wednesday	You may encounter the urge today to make a sudden and probably impulsive move toward pursuing your dreams. Whether or not this is a good thing depends on more personal circumstances than I can possible address here. There are some significant stumbling blocks out there these days with more to come a bit later today as Mercury goes retrograde. Perhaps that sudden impulse will be no more than to blow it all off for now and arrange a happy hour with your friends to commiserate.
3-31-2011 Thursday	Opposition, red-tape and/or delays are probably still keeping you from getting something you want, perhaps due to some old, unresolved issue from the past. If these are of the romantic nature, things are fairly favorable for working them through, but this is not the case if they're bureaucratic. With Mercury now retrograde again, remember not to buy anything mechanical or electronic and use it to rethink, reconsider and re-plan anything that doesn't seem to be working.
4-01-2011 Friday	Obstacles continue to feel as if you're driving with the brakes on, making this a good time to take a yoga class or practice your favorite relaxation technique. It's a favorable time to balance your checkbook, however, and perhaps determine where all that money you thought you had went to. Another favorable pastime for the day comprises talking about pleasant days past with someone you love.
4-02-2011 Saturday	With the Sun, Moon, Mars, Uranus, Jupiter and Mercury all congregated in Aries you can expect to encounter a lot of energy in whatever part of your life Aries represents, which will be pointed out in your sign's monthly horoscope. Those born under the sign of Aries are on steroids, so lay low. Tempers of all varieties could be on a hair trigger as well, so think twice before you provoke someone, especially if they happen to be wearing a badge or some other mantel of authority.
4-03-2011 Sunday New Moon	New Moon today as described in the monthly horoscope for your specific sign. With the Sun, Moon and four planets in Aries the amount of energy emanating from that already energized sign is off the charts. The only thing keeping it in check is retrograde Saturn opposing the Sun, Moon and Jupiter. The next few weeks are going to be intense and different than anything you've experienced before. This is an excellent opportunity for you to get an idea what Aries energy feels like if you're not already familiar with it. About all that's left to be said is "Brace yourself!"
4-04-2011 Monday	That cluster in Aries is quite daunting with Saturn in Libra trying to restrain at least a portion of it. Time will tell whether this will serve as a rather high stone wall before a herd of runaway wild horses or conversely as an out-of-touch authority figure ordering them they need to stop. If you want to see how this energy manifests just turn on the news. Also noteworthy today is the fact that Neptune has slipped into it's dignity in Pisces until early August when he goes back into Aquarius for a time, then comes back to stay in February 2012. This provides Neptune with the ideal environment to express his archetype which ranges from idealism to illusions. How this mixes with all that activity in Aries should be interesting indeed.
4-05-2011 Tuesday	The Aries Convention continues minus the Moon, which has moved into Taurus, calming things a bit, while you ponder something you need to get rid of, one way or another. Consider your actions carefully and don't give into impulsive action or you might start a bigger fuss than you're equipped to handle. Consider any collateral damage it could cause to someone you care about and adjust your plans accordingly.
4-06-2011 Wednesday	If you haven't clashed with an authority figure lately in one way or another, even if it's a simple disagreement which may not even be openly expressed, you probably just haven't recognized it. Over the next few days pay attention and see if you can discern how people are acting differently under all that Aries energy. More direct confrontations that involve someone on a power trip are coming. Bear in mind the best recourse is often to use a bit of charm to justify your position as opposed to a full frontal assault, though all that Aries energy definitely favors the latter.
4-07-2011 Thursday	Relationship issues could surface today, perhaps in a less than friendly manner, which indicate it needs to be restructured or adjusted in some way. The best way to do so will be to do whatever is necessary to be logical about the situation. This includes recognizing your true feelings for each other, determining whether what you have is worth savings, and then examining what your expectations are for each other. Being too idealistic or not communicating clearly are probably what got you into trouble in the first place, so use that Mercury retrograde energy to effect a new start.
4-08-2011 Friday	Relationship issues are still highlighted but the climate is still favorable for discussing your differences and working out any misunderstandings. Being logical remains a challenge with tempers more likely than usual to flare with all those planets in Aries stirring up your sense of independence and desire to have your own way. Admit you're not the center of the Universe and don't resist the need for some changes, even if your ego is less than enchanted by the prospect. Again, logic provides some opportunities today with any other approach likely to end in a way you won't like.
4-09-2011 Saturday	Getting your head and heart on the same page is favored today but it's going to take concerted effort on your part. Arguments are still likely along with various surprises. Responsibilities and obligations are a hot topic which will have a fair amount of volatility if one or both of you get defensive. While the energy out there can result in contention, with logic and determination you can direct that energy toward deliberate and positive change. It won't be easy but it will be worth it.
4-10-2011 Sunday	The transits out there today are rather hostile with power struggles pulling in different directions the prominent theme. Your best bet today is to work out that energy in a productive way working on something, preferably of a physical nature, like cleaning the house or garage or working in the yard. There may be a variety of things vying for your attention making it hard to decide which way to go. If there is not major urgency with regard to getting one done before the other, do the one you are more motivated to tackle since there's enough other opposition out there without having to force yourself to do something you don't want to do.
4-11-2011 Monday	Today will be filled with complexities as numerous factors interact and produce a confrontation which has been building up for several days. Opposing philosophical views will cause a deadlock with no resolution in sight, particularly if it involves butting heads with someone in power. Your head and heart will be out of synch as well, providing mixed messages of equal import and sway. In other words, this looks like a Monday on steroids that should be interesting to say the least and will require some major restructuring to resolve, which won't be completed for several months to come.
4-12-2011 Tuesday	Moving forward in the direction you want is still encountering resistance and if you haven't gone back to the drawing board yet to find a new approach maybe it's time you did. Adjustments regarding what you want, or at least think you do, are required and won't progress until you are able to recognize your true motivation which probably relates to something in your distant past. It's time to undergo a transformation with regard to your perception of that event or situation, then let go of whatever it is and then eliminate it, including all emotion attached to it. Then maybe you can really think about making serious progress.
4-13-2011 Wednesday	Depending on your situation, this is a favorable day to take a close look at someone or something you want and decide whether you're seeing things the way they are or not. If you are, then it's a favorable time to move forward with the understanding that there will be obstacles in your way, but that is pretty typical of life these days. If you're not being realistic, now is also a good day to make a few adjustments to your attitude toward the situation, whether it's love or money, and then proceed accordingly.
4-14-2011 Thursday	Today is a great day to go on a cleaning frenzy in whatever part of your house or life requires it. Whether it's your closet, garage, attic, pantry, refrigerator, office, desk or computer, get in there today and get rid of anything that is no longer useful. The one thing to avoid today is being too hard on yourself for past mistakes. All those planets in Aries these days could definitely predispose you to making some new ones, so use that Mercury retrograde energy to rethink any impulsive decisions or any other action which might bite you later.
4-15-2011 Friday	There are some rather harsh aspects out there today so don't be surprised if it's a frustrating, contentious day with everyone pushing their own agenda and cooperation minimal unless it's in everyone's best interests. If you're in a relationship be wary of providing any "constructive criticism" because it will probably go over like the proverbial lead balloon. Discovering something from your past that is less than friendly is possible as well. This is a favorable day to take it easy, chill out as much as you can, and avoid situations that could cause problems.
4-16-2011 Saturday	It's pretty hard to find anything promising about today other than the fact that emotional upsets, opposition, being confronted by something from the past and various other events and situations are likely. This is not to say that these transits won't interact with your natal chart is a favorable manner. For example, if you're a fellow Fire Sign with Aries (i.e. Leo and Sagittarius) all that activity has a fairly good chance of trining your natal sun which could bring something positive your way. Air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) likewise may discover an opportunity. Water and Earth signs (i.e. the rest of you) should brace yourself.
4-17-2011 Sunday Full Moon	Full Moon today in Libra which is described more fully in the monthly horoscopes for your specific sign. Generally speaking, those five planets in Aries should give it a significant punch. The powers that be such as bureaucracies, the laws they create, and whatever social norms you operate under are still not cooperating with your ambitions. Relationships are looking for a change of course, probably a positive one, and it's also a favorable time to take a pleasant break to get away from the plethora of stressors out there these days. A Full Moon typically denotes an ending, so hopefully this will see something you want to get rid of exit your life.
4-18-2011 Monday	If there is something you need to rethink, reconsider or redo, moving forward with it may be on your list but getting anywhere with it continues to be one frustrating delay after another. Clearly, the time isn't right, so take a close look at the various obstacles, learn from them, and rework your plans accordingly. An encounter with someone from your past is likely, even if it's in the form of a random memory that surfaces seemingly from nowhere. Your imagination will be active today as well, making it a favorable time to do some daydreaming or better yet escape for even a few hours with a good book or movie.
4-19-2011 Tuesday	If you feel as if you're butting your head up against a wall, no matter what form that obstacle may assume, you're likely to experience some vindictive or vengeful feelings. These have been there all along, but have surfaced today so you can recognize them and how they may be holding you back if you don't change course. Enlightenment is possible if you can put yourself in the right frame of mind.
4-20-2011 Wednesday	The Sun went into Taurus today which will help calm things down a bit though there are still four planets in Aries and soon to be five when Venus joins the clutch in a day or so. In a few days Mercury will go direct as well, allowing you to make at least some progress, though retrograde Saturn is till like driving with the brakes on until, heaven forbid, June. Watch out today for an unexpected event or situation which gives you a few things to think about that could change your view of a few things. Indulging your fantasies is still favored so watch for an opportunity or two to relax in that manner as well.
4-21-2011 Thursday	The entourage in Aries may have lost the Sun but has now gained lovely Venus, who is acting as the intermediary for something pleasant. Making it happen may take some doing, but if there's something you want to do for yourself or indulge in with someone you love, do what it takes and it will be worth it. If you're feeling more intellectual than romantic, that is another possibility. Those bureaucratic hassles to say nothing of computer glitches and botched communications of all forms are still in force, so turn off your cell phone and your computer and enjoy yourself for a change.
4-22-2011 Friday	The mood today will be a bit somber, perhaps imbued with reflections on the past triggered by a sudden monetary or relationship issue. Communications will be particularly bogged down as Mercury stations direct so don't expect to put all your baggage behind you anytime soon, especially anything that relates to bureaucracies or other establishments. On the positive side, your head and heart should be on the same page with opportunities for a pleasant escape from it all there for the taking but you're still going to have to put some effort into it to make it work.
4-23-2011 Saturday	The good news is that Mercury is out of retrograde though it will be May 12th before the "shadow period" is over and you can really make significant progress. In other words, Mercury needs to catch back up to where he was when he went into reverse before things really get back to normal, but this is still better than retrograde. Connecting with something from your past such that you learn from it and let go is favored, but there are some conflicts out there nonetheless that could make you feel as if you're between a rock and a hard place.
4-24-2011 Sunday	Now that Mercury is no longer retrograde the chances of negotiating are improved with regard to that matter that's been frustrating you and holding you back. It's still going to take time and probably lots of it, but at least the wheels will start to turn, albeit slowly. You may encounter someone from your past who either owes you money or vice versa which could result in a bit of discomfort. Resolving the issue may take a bit of effort but will be worth it.
4-25-2011 Monday	Expect to do and hear a lot of talking today with the result likely to be positive in a variety of ways. If you're still trying to get some issues resolved, networking with friends or perhaps simply reviewing your goals to see if they're realistic could provide some useful insights. This is not to say that everything will be taken care of by day's end, but you have to start somewhere.
4-26-2011 Tuesday	Confronting and dealing with something from your past is favored for the next few days, particularly if it involves love or money. It will require some self-discipline but will be well-worth the effort to take action. Breaking free from old baggage is seldom an easy or quick process but unless you want that excess emotional weight following your around ad infinitum there's no time like the present to take care of business.
4-27-2011 Wednesday	Relationship tensions due to something either from the past or that needs to be eliminated are on the agenda today. Getting onboard with both your head and heart are favored, though it will take a bit of effort to keep them in balance. Avoid being too realistic and recognize you can't expect perfection if you can't offer it.
4-28-2011 Thursday	Tripping over something from your past which results in a bit of tension is possible today. There seem to be numerous relationship issues out there lately which is no big surprise considering all those planets in assertive Aries which will rub off on everyone in one way or another, especially considering the degree spread. In other words, y'all (as we say in Texas) can just about bet that at least one planet on your natal chart is being aspected by one or more, making you more impulsive and independent which typically doesn't mix well with most relationships. Saturn in Libra is putting the brakes on this some, but could exacerbate the feeling of frustration. On the positive side, this is a favorable time to look for things in your life that you'd be better off without. Don't be to quick to think that might be an individual, however.
4-29-2011 Friday	The Moon will enter Aries today which makes for a tremendously lopsided chart. I would be very curious to see what the children are like who are born under these aspects. They'll be go-getters on steroids, to be sure. Meanwhile your efforts at such continue to be ham-strung if they relate to communications, love or money. Taking action on something less complicated or learning something new are highly favored.
4-30-2011 Saturday	If you're not making any progress give some serious thought to a change of course. You may have to give something up in order to do so, but it will be worth it if you're serious about attaining your goal. Something from your past might come up today and create a bit of a stir with regard to love or money. All those planets in Aries are providing a lot of energy in spite of any delays or obstacles so put it to good use to at least build some momentum with regard to what you want to do.
5-01-2011 Sunday	There's a whole bunch of planets clustered in Aries today plus the Moon so that impulsive energy will be operating in full force, especially with Jupiter conjunct Mars and thus further inflating his tendency toward taking action first and thinking about later. If these matter pertain to love you will have a bit more restraint, however, which is probably a good thing. There's a subtle influence out there trying to get you to consider past mistakes, how they're holding you back and making any necessary adjustments to do so but you may not hear it through all that noise coming from Aries.
5-02-2011 Monday	Relationship responsibility issues are still emphasized and require discussion and negotiation. Digging in your heels is not conducive to results so if this is what you're doing you need to be willing to make some adjustments. A change of heart is possible, but will also take some effort, though something surprising or disruptive may come along that gets your attention and increases your willingness to do what is right. Being on a power trip or lost in your own pride are not going to be to your advantage in the long run.
5-03-2011 Tuesday New Moon	New Moon today as described more fully in your monthly horoscope. This isn't a particularly friendly looking lunation in and of itself but that doesn't mean it won't contact your own chart in a favorable way. On its own it suggests a lot of energy which may have a difficult time following through, particularly as it meets resistance of a legal or authoritative nature with further complications due to something being covered up or perhaps a power struggle with someone up the foodchain. Persistence and stability however can provide an alternate plan which could resolve the matter once and for all.
5-04-2011 Wednesday	Getting what you want or where you want is probably going to require an adjustment or two because there isn't too much out there these days which is friendly. Possible exceptions may be those of you with Fire Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) since all those planets in Aries are working in your favor these days. Cardinal signs have their share of woes, however, (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn), though Aries has all that energy backing them up. False starts, blow-ups, frustrations, and annoyances are simply the norm lately.
5-05-2011 Thursday	If you're working on something that requires a logical approach today is a good one to take a look at possible solutions. Otherwise rather unfriendly aspects continue to prevail. That square between Uranus and Pluto seems to be causing all sorts of disruptions and disturbances at all levels, whether it's the weather, which has certainly been horrendous and undoubtedly exacerbated by that Jupiter - Mars conjunction in Aries, or with the simplest activities of everyday life. It has even seemed as if Mercury were still retrograde lately. As that entourage of planets breaks up this month as three of them move into Taurus, things should start improving.
5-06-2011 Friday	Uranus and Pluto are applying to a square which doesn't bode well for various things, particularly as far as Mother Nature is concerned. So far this spring has been pretty brutal and aspects like that don't point toward relief anytime soon. Watch for a big opportunity today when you receive some useful information which can help you get started on a new endeavor. Communications with regard to love and money should go well, also.
5-07-2011 Saturday	There are conflicts galore out there today and you're most likely to see them if your Sun Sign is Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn, a.k.a. the Cardinal Signs, because each of these are part of a Cardinal Grand Square. In its simplest form it looks as if an unexpected event or some sort of disturbance will affect your emotionally, but trying to do something about it will be frustrated or delayed which in turn may cause you to either bury it or perhaps refuse to let go of something. Be on the lookout for power trips as well, particularly any of your own.
5-08-2011 Sunday	The potential for emotionally charged confrontations is high today with it possible that the topic itself will be over-inflated. Digging up past issues and using them to make your point will simply throw more gasoline on the fire. If you're feeling restricted, controlled by someone, or generally in a rather bad mood, do the world a favor and indulge yourself in something relaxing to de-stress before venturing out and interacting with the rest of the human race.
5-09-2011 Monday	The squares between Pluto and Uranus as well as Saturn are going to be in effect for a while and will represent continued challenges with a variety of surprises and disruptions. These bad boys played a significant role in the recent tornadoes to say nothing of the Japan earthquake and tsunami, so if you're seeing figurative analogs in your life, this is where it's coming from. On the positive side, taking action on your dreams is favored over the next few days as Mars forms a friendly sextile to Neptune. Maybe if you're fed up enough with things as they are that's the next logical step.
5-10-2011 Tuesday	Taking action on a dream or fantasy could happen today, but make sure you're not just being impulsive. Expressing your feelings for someone is favored and you may be more inclined to say something than usual, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. Your head and heart are likely to be at odds with logic telling you to be practical not to take chances while your emotions will be sticking up for what you want, practical or otherwise . If whatever it is becomes a need, then it's likely to happen, but be prepared for a few obstacles.
5-11-2011 Wednesday	You may not like everything your instincts are telling you today or they may present a dilemma. Taking action is favored as a way to resolve it, however, so go ahead in a careful and practical manner. This may require a change of heart or attitude, however, which may be easier said than done. There's a huge emphasis on communicating about love and money as Mercury, Jupiter and Venus come together in partile (same degree) conjunction, but being too impulsive could get you into trouble so don't say anything you'll have to eat in a few days.
5-12-2011 Thursday	The opportunity to take action in a practical way to bring a dream or bit of inspiration into reality is still lurking out there somewhere. Just make sure you don't get so lost in the details that you finally give up. Issues from your past may take an unexpected turn with the desire to get back at someone blocked in some way, which may be a good thing. It continues to be a favorable time to tell someone you love how you feel about them. Actions speak louder than words, so start the conversation with a surprise gift with some sentimental value.
5-13-2011 Friday	Lately you've had an opportunity to take action on a dream or fantasy which may involve expressing your feelings toward someone. If you haven't done so yet, today is the perfect opportunity to do so as the Libra Moon in the house of relationships ties things together even more. Something unexpected may get in your way but if you're serious about it you can make it happen with some effort. If you aren't in the market for initiating a relationship, this is a wonderful time to simply express love and appreciate to those around you who may not hear it often enough. Now is your opportunity to make this a very favorable Friday the 13th.
5-14-2011 Saturday	Those opportunities to express yourself or your opinions are still operative with a strong dream element attached. Maybe your fantasies are a bit far-fetched, but you'd be surprised what you may be able to accomplish under this transit. Resolving something from your past is also favored, which may be precipitated by something that takes you by surprise. Breaking free from old baggage takes effort but well-worth it in the long run.
5-15-2011 Sunday	If you've started a dialog with someone lately that has some degree of emotional associated with it, the intensity could escalate today beyond what you're expecting. Be sure to think things through, which may be rather difficult if the feelings involved are intense. Your dreams and fantasies are probably still begging for attention, but don't be so enamored that common sense gets lost. It's best not to make any important relationship decisions today because logic will be hard to come by.
5-16-2011 Monday	Good news, Mercury and Venus have gone into Taurus so the only planets left in Aries are Uranus and Jupiter, which should calm things down significantly. Having all those planets in energetic, impulsive and sometimes aggressive Aries has been quite a trip and it's quite a relief to see it end. Nonetheless, something from your past may be coming back to haunt you these days, though that opportunity to pursue a relationship continues to be favored and in a more stable way that previously. Avoid being too idealistic, however, because it is likely to lead to disappointment.
5-17-2011 Tuesday Full Moon	Full Moon today, the effect of which is described in your sign's monthly horoscope. Watch for something unexpected which reminds you of something from your past or that you need to let go of something before you can go forward. Inspiration on how to implement a money-making idea is possible, so pay attention to any brainstorms that come your way, seemingly from nowhere. If it seems a bit far-fetched, maybe what needs to be adjusted is your outlook or belief in yourself.
5-18-2011 Wednesday	An unexpected situation may arise which results in an interesting conversation about something from the past which has been buried or unresolved. This is a time to uncover misunderstandings or even determine if deliberate deception was involved. Differences of opinion are worth discussing, particularly if it's a situation where there is no right or wrong, just different perceptions. Be honest, get all your cards out on the table, and at the least agree to disagree in a peaceful manner.
5-19-2011 Thursday	If you're still working on resolving something from the past, the aspects remain favorable to conduct that conversation, or perhaps simply go through an intensive period of contemplation or soul searching. You head and your heart are slightly out of synch and an adjustment will be required by one or the other to get on the same page. Be as philosophical as possible, though letting go of old paradigms isn't going to be easy.
5-20-2011 Friday	Keeping cool during a conversation which could be a bit unsettling is favored today along with the ability to maintain a sense of fairness which will help facilitate a resolution. If you're been too idealistic about a situation you may have to confront that and recognize such thinking tends to set you up for disappointment. Remember, unless you can offer perfection you can't expect it. At any rate, expect something to come to a conclusion once and for all.
5-21-2011 Saturday	If you didn't finish up with unsettled business yesterday you have a second change today but things are not as likely to stay calm as before. If any buttons are pushed, it could result in a bit of a confrontation, so be prepared. The Sun goes into Gemini today so logic and intuition will be at odds but if you do your homework properly you'll be able to access what you're looking for, weigh the data and make the right decision.
5-22-2011 Sunday	It would probably be best to avoid group activities today unless you enjoy confrontations and arguments. If there's an authority figure who can mediate, things might work out in a favorable way for resolving some past problem that has everyone in an uproar. However, if left to your individual devices and opinions, it's likely that you're maintaining an idealistic view which isn't acknowledging all sides of the argument or even the facts. All in all, it's a favorable day for some alone time.
5-23-2011 Monday	Dealing with something from the past that needs to be resolved or perhaps simply something you need to get rid of is favored today. Innovative ideas are favored which should help find any needed solutions or perhaps a compromise which everyone can live with. Your imagination is likely to be quite active which is great if you're a creative type but don't confuse it with the facts or reality. Romantic encounters are favored, but responsibilities of one sort or another may necessitate a change of course.
5-24-2011 Tuesday	Flip-flopping between common sense and total irrationality are likely today which may occur either amongst several individuals or perhaps even in the same person, maybe even you. Romantic encounters are likely to involve some interesting overtones, some of which may not be suitable for discussion in mixed company. If you're so inclined, you're going to have a few old boundaries and restrictions to get past if you want to pursue any fantasies.
5-25-2011 Wednesday	Disruptions that unearth past issues are on the agenda today along with the potential for creating tension with regard to a relationship. Talking about it is favored, however, with the need to change course essential if you're going to make any progress. Don't be surprised if your brain is a little foggy or confused, adding to the stress. Your best bet at this point is to trust your instincts to guide you in the right direction.
5-26-2011 Thursday	Four planets with rather questionable reputations for good are combining forces today, viz. Uranus, Pluto, Saturn and Mars. Keep an eye out for something to take you by surprise and force the issue on something that needs to be resolved or eliminated from your life. A change of course or direction is likely to be involved as well. Conversations with members of the opposite sex are favored on such topics provided you don't try to dump all the blame on the other person or refuse to budge as far as your position is concerned.
5-27-2011 Friday	Watch your temper today, particularly if you're dealing with a delicate or emotionally-charged situation. You may even be better off if you sit it out until Monday and give the Moon a chance to get out of Aries. On the positive side, if no such situations are afoot, it is a favorable time to break free from something that's been holding you back and finally change direction.
5-28-2011 Saturday	Examining your dreams closely and expanding upon them is favored today. If you've lost touch with them, it's particularly important to redefine them since we all need something to cling to and look forward to. Not all dreams can come true, but some do so don't give up too easily. Put some logic behind it, do your research and don't be afraid to make a list of the people who can help you along the way.
5-29-2011 Sunday	Find some time to relax today and enjoy some quiet meditation or some other means to escape from those daily stressors which have been getting you down lately. Something unexpected is likely to come up to add to you already busy schedule so take a break while you can. Discovering a different course to take is possible by drawing from lessons learned in the past or perhaps finally making up your mind to take care of something you've ignored for too long.
5-30-2011 Monday	The opportunity to take action on a dream or fantasy may come your way today, but don't expect the going to be smooth. The emotional momentum will help and there are other favorable indicators and information available. However, information is likely to surface which relates to bureaucratic red tape or some other powerful entity which will force a change of direction. Of all things don't forget that it's not what you know but WHO you know, so don't hesitate to call in some favors. Surprises and disruptions will be as plentiful as fireworks on the 4th of July (or New Years, depending where you live) but persistence pays, so don't forget that.
5-31-2011 Tuesday	That Cardinal T-Square out there is going to be in force for a while so you might want to give it some thought. It's described in your sign's June astrocast in more detail, but the general theme is that in order to break free of an old problem that's been holding you back you're going to have to resolve the core issue, not gloss it over--again. Dreams and reality will clash briefly today, but opportunities are coming to expand your fantasies into the earthly plane. In general, logic is your friend today.
6-01-2011 Wednesday	Solar eclipse today which will be visible across the northern-most parts of Europe and Asia. Eclipses have quite a bit more punch than the usual lunation as explained in your monthly horoscope for your respective sign. Don't believe everything you see, hear or think at this time without verifying it's not an illusion, delusion or fantasy. This is not to say that favorable information won't come your way, only that you should make sure it's as good as it sounds before getting too excited. If you have unresolved issues from the past, these continue to cloud your future; take care of business before something takes you by surprise and makes it a critical situation.
6-02-2011 Thursday	This is a favorable time for male/female communications with one caveat, that being that you need to resist being to stuck in your opinions, be more objective, and line up the facts above any emotional issues. Listen carefully with your heart and head and make a supreme effort to understand rather than simply trying to get across your own side of things. Whatever the issue is, there's a high probability that much of what you're concerned about is being exacerbated by your imagination.
6-03-2011 Friday	Be on the lookout for something from your past to turn up in an unexpected way today and cause a bit of a stir emotionally. It's important, however, to recognize that your reaction is largely emotional and not based on an objective view of the situation. Take advantage of that Gemini Sun and Mercury to gather together the logic necessary to look at things as they really are and maybe even resolve the situation once and for all.
6-04-2011 Saturday	New insights or a change of course with regard to something you've kept buried and ignored is possible today. Watch your temper, be willing to be open-minded, and make sure you're operating on the facts though this is going to be difficult. At the least, don't do anything you'll regret which may require letting things ride until you can calm down and see things more clearly.
6-05-2011 Sunday	That Leo Moon could cause you a few problems today if you allow it to convince you that you're the center of the Universe. This is most likely to occur if something or someone puts you on the spot and you choose to get defensive rather than address the issue in a logical manner. Also watch your wallet today and don't be too quick to pull out cash or plastic for something you only think you need.
6-06-2011 Monday	There have been a lot of surprises lately though some of them aren't necessarily bad and could actually represent an opportunity if you're paying attention. Regardless of what the challenges may be, if you make the effort to do the right thing, it will work out better for you in the long haul. Maybe you've had your panties in a wad over something that didn't happen nearly the way you think.
6-07-2011 Tuesday	Breaking free from something in your past is still actively seeking your attention with another situation brewing today as well. If you're clinging to a dream or fantasy of some description, particularly if it involves love or money, you may be more determined than ever to make it so. A philosophical approach and good heart-to-heart communications are favored which should help the situation significantly.
6-08-2011 Wednesday	If you're looking for a solution to that dilemma you've been wrestling with your chances are good today of finding one. Logic is accessible thanks to that Virgo Moon while Jupiter and Neptune provide expanded insights that could lead to new possibilities. It's also a favorable time to call in a favor or seek advise from someone you respect, though you may not necessarily like what they have to say.
6-09-2011 Thursday	This is a favorable time to commit emotionally to something you need to do. Communications are favored so if a heart-to-heart is required, go for it. Be open to what the Universe is trying to tell you and don't be afraid to change your entire point of view. The one thing to really watch out for is unrealistic expectations or delusional thinking.
6-10-2011 Friday	Over the next month or so expect to expand your understanding of something from the past which has been holding you back. Getting the matter resolved has not been easy, but this is a favorable day to increase your understanding and possibly change how you feel about the situation. An opportunity may come out of the blue to pursue a relationship or money making endeavor, so watch for something of that nature as well while also keeping on your toes with regard to whether it's valid or simply an illusion.
6-11-2011 Saturday	Misunderstandings between the sexes are quite likely today, as if that sort of thing needs any additional help. This is truly a time when men are definitely from Mars and women from Venus with confusion inevitable with regard to where the opposite gender is coming from. If this turns out to be a problem for you today your best bet is to part friends and resume the conversation sometime later, like in a few weeks. There's quite a bit of energy in logical Gemini but possibly not enough to compensate.
6-12-2011 Sunday	An opportunity may come out of the blue within a day or so with regard to love or money. You may stall in going after it, however, either because you don't recognize it for what it is or because you're simply confused. Your belief system may require some remodeling and a general change of direction before you can figure it out and move forward. If you need a hint, you may have to let go of something before you can get there.
6-13-2011 Monday	Be sure to take your chill pill this morning, especially if you've got a temper or a propensity for revenge because you may experience a rather strong inclination to do so but your reasoning may not be entirely sound. In other words, you probably don't have your facts straight or you're overreacting. Adjustments to your head and heart are called for along with some deep introspection, which, if handled properly, will make you a better, more understanding person.
6-14-2011 Tuesday	You may encounter two mutually exclusive opportunities today which illustrates the principle that you can't have your cake and eat it, too. This could be a clash between what you want to do versus what you should do or simply having to make a choice. Delusions with regard to a romantic relationship are highly likely; be willing to acknowledge that past situations require consideration and then make the necessary adjustments.
6-15-2011 Wednesday	Lunar eclipse today as described in the monthly horoscope for your sign. Lunar eclipses will typically affect you more at the emotional level than the solar variety, but not always. This one hints at the need to continue to break free from anything from your past holding you back and being willing to make any necessary changes to do so. Being more responsible is typically a good idea as well, unless you're already so responsible that you make yourself and everyone else miserable.
6-16-2011 Thursday	Unexpected news that digs up something from your past is likely today. Saturn has also gone direct after his five month stint doing the backstroke, which should help you move forward with anything you've been trying to pull together without previous success, though this is not to say that it will be easy, only possible. If you've been struggling with a dilemma lately, the information supporting each side could be profuse today and make things even more confusing than they were before. Look to that issue from the past for clues regarding what adjustments need to be made.
6-17-2011 Friday	If something took you by surprise yesterday you're probably still working with it or perhaps it will come your way today. Challenges, false starts, and confusion are possible, but if you put some serious thought behind it you should be able to gain an increased understanding which will be extremely useful. A little inspiration goes a long way when it's on the right track. Just make sure it is. Dealing with money or relationships responsibility issues is favored, which may turn out to be considerably helpful.
6-18-2011 Saturday	There's a lot of noise out there today between the planets, all of which seem to be talking at once. The good news is expanding on an idea you've been working on for quite a long time which will come with the motivation and emotional commitment you need to get it started. The bad news is a plethora of surprises along the way, bureaucratic redtape, and various other obstacles which will result in a false start or two and probably require an adjustment or two.
6-19-2011 Sunday	The planets have maneuvered themselves into a Grand Cross which tends to represent issues in a variety of areas which can all tie together. The trigger may be something that's been hanging over your head for quite a while but you just can't seem to shake off. The good news is that there are some favorable vibes out there as well. The first step in solving any problem is to acquire the right attitude, which the Universe will help you do as long as you use logic as opposed to emotion. Bon chance!
6-20-2011 Monday	That Grand Cross continues for a few more days so expect the next few days to continue to be hectic, especially as the Moon moves into Pisces, adding what could be a surreal quality to it all. Bear in mind that there are positive aspects out there to help you through whatever challenges present themselves. Confronting and solving them is much preferred to ignoring them, which may have exacerbated them in the first place. Procrastination usually catches up with you at some point.
6-21-2011 Tuesday	The Grand Cross looks more like a clamshell today with all the interactions between the planets in high gear. The Sun is a sneeze away from entering Cardinal Sign, Cancer, which will happen before the day is through. Ingresses into Cardinal Signs tend to set the tone for the coming quarter. While that Grand Cross is a bit ominous, at least the only planet left in Aries is Uranus. Brace yourself for another hectic day and cross your fingers that the weather nationwide improves in the coming months.
6-22-2011 Wednesday	With the Sun and Mercury both in Cancer you are likely to be feeling more sentimental and emotional with Pluto providing numerous flashbacks. These could also take the form of dreams that include people from your past, particularly if your relationship did not end well. If getting back in touch to talk about it is out of the question, at least give some thought to what your part was in the situation and how you can avoid similar scenarios in the future. Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
6-23-2011 Thursday	Watch for disruptions galore which will probably be particularly irritating with your temper close to the surface, even if you usually don't have one. There's been a lot of emphasis on taking care of old issues and situations lately, but these may not all be on the physical plane. These could easily include old relationship matters that could reach back to your distant past, particularly if an authority figure was involved. This could include anyone from a government official to your parents, so be on the lookout for reminders, possibly even in the form of dreams, that point you toward work that needs to be done to resolve them.
6-24-2011 Friday	Expect to get some news or information today which contributes to the latest and gets your stirred up as much as yesterday. In other words, things will probably get worse before they get better. Be on your guard, however, with regard to believing everything you hear or even think. Whatever you do, don't do something you'll regret based on unverified data. These are busy and hectic times which may not seem to have any order of purpose behind them but they are evolving to something important, even if it's only a major personal revelation.
6-25-2011 Saturday	Whatever has surfaced the past few days may quiet down for a few days then come back, full force. This gives you an opportunity to pursue some solutions, both mentally and through networking with friends and family. Maintain a positive attitude but don't be over-confident because that is likely to bite you later. Various irritations are likely in a variety of arenas. Look beneath the surface of them for something that could work out in your favor.
6-26-2011 Sunday	You may have to defend your position unexpectedly today, particularly if you encounter someone on a power trip, but you should be able to do so in a logical manner. Avoid conjecture because it's likely to be wrong and weaken your case. Pondering your past is still favored and in some cases necessary, but it's likely to bring insights you missed the first time around and yield understanding which will be beneficial. Find some time to relax with someone you love and count your blessings, even if times are hard.
6-27-2011 Monday	All those little annoyances are trying to tell you something and may even be hiding an opportunity if you pay enough attention to develop them. Thoughts and people from your past continue to make appearances, perhaps even in your dreams. Taking action toward a new path which could lead to a major renewal is hinted at as your view of life changes in small, incremental steps. If you're not happy with the status quo, the chance to break out is in work if you're paying close enough attention to see it.
6-28-2011 Tuesday	If you're trying to muster the commitment you need to change your course of action you can probably talk yourself into it today. The conflicts are still out there and you need to make sure that you keep a firm grip on reality, but doing what it takes to move toward transformational change is possible. The conflict between what you want, what others want, and what the world wants remains and isn't going to change anytime soon so focus on your own meaningful goals rather than getting lost in the confusion.
6-29-2011 Wednesday	This continues to be a good time to think things through in a logical way and commit yourself to a new course of action that will probably be slightly different than where you thought you were heading. Remember that those who fail to learn from the past are doomed to repeat it, then determine what needs to change. Those obstacles in your way may be self-imposed, bringing you full circle to figuring out what the do-loop is that has you trapped.
6-30-2011 Thursday	The need for a change of course or direction unless you can defend your current position is still out there today. Keep your eyes open for an unexpected opportunity which may have a rather short fuse which won't give you much time to think about it. This doesn't mean you won't have time to put together a viable plan, only that you need to keep moving. Put your imagination to work and see where it leads, which is likely to be somewhere you've never been before.
7-01-2011 Friday New Moon/Solar Eclipse	Today is another Solar Eclipse with the last one only a month ago. Check your sign's monthly horoscope for a more detailed description of what to expect. Generally speaking this one looks as if it's going to call for a change of direction which may entail utilizing your imagination to make it work. Moving forward is still hindered by that Cardinal Grand Cross which is causing quite a bit of gridlock, but you can still thinks through your plans so you can be ready when things finally break loose.
7-02-2011 Saturday	There's a bunch of things going on today, including what looks to be some sort of argument or clash involving politics or religion. Of course in polite company these subjects are taboo and with good reason. Especially when they get too idealistic logic tends to evaporate. It's always good to develop the ability to listen to someone's point of view without necessarily agreeing. Thus, do your best not to take any of it personally, even if it seems a bit of a diatribe. Try to be as objective as possible and have the courage to change your opinion if the facts warrant such action.
7-03-2011 Sunday	Expect to encounter something related to a past relationship that may not have ended well today, perhaps due to some unexpected news or information. Chances are you're still doing a lot of blaming and not recognizing your own part in the situation. You can make all the noise you want, but it won't change the facts, which are trying to get your attention. Freedom and responsibility may be in a tug-o-war as well of late. Life isn't simple these days but if you think things through objectively you may find an opportunity or two to make some progress.
7-04-2011 Monday	The stress and tension operating between various parts of your life continue but help is out there to take action on your ideas for improving your situation. These ideas will need to be quite original and innovative. Remember if you keep on doing what you've always done, you'll keep on getting what you've always got. Doing things differently than before is required, so a shift deep enough to be considered a transformation of your core beliefs and philosophy of life is what you need to seek.
7-05-2011 Tuesday	The challenges continue, though today there's a nice Grand Earth Trine which could help you pull some plans together. Financial planning these days is a bit of a crap shoot but you may get some ideas today that could work. Innovation is a good thing, so don't be afraid to think outside the proverbial box. Your communications may tend to be a bit self-centered and over-confident so bear that in mind if you encounter resistance in which case you'll need to make a few adjustments to your delivery if you want to make any progress.
7-06-2011 Wednesday	Try to maintain an open mind today and resist the temptation to discount something before you hear and process all the facts. Recognize that such opinionated behavior constitutes a power-trip of sorts which you definitely dislike in others. Seeing something from a different point of view can often provide an important lesson, even if you don't agree. Remember that you have two ears and one month and the underlying meaning behind it.
7-07-2011 Thursday	The conflicts, confusion and hectic pace continue but there the good stuff does as well. Concentrating on the positive, continue to take a logical approach to your challenges and be willing to change your existing beliefs if you really want things to change. Opportunities to improve your relationships and financial picture are there, but they'll require a fairly major shift in your approach. Tune in to the experts, not the ones who make the most noise, and then follow your instincts as opposed to your opinion. In other words, look for the answer in your gut as opposed to what comes out of your mouth.
7-08-2011 Friday	Watch for an opportunity to come your way today, possibly through a conversation with a boss, a mentor, parent or other person you respect. This isn't something to sit on for too long but something you should start moving on, even if it's only data collection. There are also some aspects out there which could contribute to improving your love and/or money situation. Of course there will be naysayers and various obstacles along the way, but that's no excuse not to give it a shot.
7-09-2011 Saturday	Those opportunities noted yesterday are still out there along with a bit more. However, the two things that are out there are mutually exclusive; in other words, two good things are pulling against each other. It looks as if a relationship is involved which could be deepened on one hand thought there might be something from the past holding it back. Perhaps you've had a falling out with someone such that some serious forgiveness is required which is easier said than done. Only you can decide which direction to go based on which option is more important.
7-10-2011 Sunday	Your emotions will be a bit more sensitive today than usual with your depth of feeling enhanced, which can be wonderful on the positive side and not so wonderful on the negative side, depending on what you're being emotional about. Other aspects out there are enough of a mixed bag that they could go either way. Be aware that what you feel may not be in touch with reality so it's best to refrain from making any critical decisions until some logic returns.
7-11-2011 Monday	Taking a philosophical approach to something you need to adjust will be helpful today. This could be related to something you need to clean up from the past which recently got your attention in a rather sudden way. This is a favorable day to take action, particularly if it involves dealing with an authority or government figure of some description. Avoid deception, even of the little white lie variety because it would eventually erode your credibility.
7-12-2011 Tuesday	You are likely to be torn between between your heart and your beliefs today. Something is holding you back from taking action, but if you'll be honest and communicate what you are really feeling and want you should be able to make some progress. Be willing to take responsibility as appropriate for anything in your past that is causing a problem and the rest of the solution will manifest itself.
7-13-2011 Wednesday	Old love or money issues coupled with the desire to break away from someone or something and not being able to get anywhere with either could bring a few frustrations today. Nonetheless, this is a favorable time to develop a new plan of action, think it through from all sides, and even access your imagination a bit with regard to what you really want. Getting past something that keep coming back to haunt you is also possible.
7-14-2011 Thursday	The usual suspects are out there again/still so whatever you're trying to overcome is still ongoing. On the positive side, put together at least a rudimentary plan and then do something, even if it's wrong. Take a good look at your attitude while you're at it, too, and see if it could use a few adjustments. Your heart should have a fairly well-grounded spin today and will help point you in the right direction.
7-15-2011 Friday Full Moon	Full Moon today which is described for your sign in your monthly horoscope. The planets are spreading out again, thank heavens, as opposed to that cluster in Aries we had to deal with earlier this year. Breaking free of restrictions including any you're still toting around from your past are an ongoing theme as well as financial responsibility and family issues. An opportunity may be hiding in there somewhere to increase your security. Speaking your mind in a logical way is favored, but be careful not to come on too strong and appear self-centered.
7-16-2011 Saturday	There's a rather amusing looking aspect pattern out there today that looks like a bolt of lightning. Oddly enough it involves Pluto and Uranus, rulers of power and electricity respectively, with serious, responsible Saturn in there as well with Venus where the strike finally gets grounded. Thus, it's possible you may be the recipient of an emotional "bolt out of the blue" today which could relate to one of your responsibilities.
7-17-2011 Sunday	If your head and heart are conducting an argument, your best approach is to be willing to change course with one or the other. The argument is probably equally convincing on both sides, so you need to acquire more information before you can make an intelligent decision. If it's emotional security you're looking for, you need to look to the past, particularly anything that hasn't been properly resolved, if you want to make any progress.
7-18-2011 Monday	Good news today, folks, the favorable aspects finally outnumber the harsh. Not to say the bad times are gone, but at least there's some relief. On the other hand, one of the reasons it's relatively quiet is that Neptune, Mars, Venus, the Sun and Mercury are all operating independently, which allows them to do their own thing, though that may involve your natal chart. Remember that these are all about the transits only and a bad day here can be a good day with respect to your chart or, unfortunately, vice versa. Meanwhile, today watch for some deep insights that could revise how you feel about something important.
7-19-2011 Tuesday	I know I probably sound like a broken record when I keep saying it's time to break away from something in your past, but that's what the planets are saying. Furthermore, doing that isn't exactly easy and will take time. It's not like you get up one day and while brushing your teeth decide to get over something that's been bothering you for decades. However, you need quit pretending it doesn't exist and start somewhere. Start today by thinking about what it is, then analyzing it in a logical way. If that happened to a friend who was talking to you about it, how would you console them?
7-20-2011 Wednesday	The good guys are still ahead by a nose, but be wary of deception and only seeing or hearing what you want as opposed to the entire story. Putting aside the past in favor of a fresh start is favored, though it may take a bit of effort on your part to make it stick. A new view of what you need from life has been gestating inside you for a while and should start to show more visibly sometime soon so watch for it.
7-21-2011 Thursday	A change of course or adjustment may be required today. It may be inspired or it may be delusional, so give it a sanity check before doing anything too drastic to make sure you're improving things as opposed to making it worse. Learning from the past is still favored, but there is still something going on that is holding back progress. Breaking free is easier said than done, no matter how much you want to do so, when something is cooped up in your heart.
7-22-2011 Friday	At least that persistent T-square is gone, implying you might be able to make some progress. This is a favorable day to gather information on something you want to do, even though it may take quite a bit of effort to achieve the end result. Expressing yourself and what you want should go well, however, as well as expanding your horizons as you dig your way out of any ashes left from the past. This may bring about a change of course as you pursue your dreams but it will ultimately put them more on target.
7-23-2011 Saturday	Deepening your view of life at an emotional level to the point of awakening a new lease on life is a possibility today. This could come as a result of a profound insight triggered by an unexpected event. Such revelations sometimes challenge your existing view of the world and make you uncomfortable, but it is through discomfort that we learn, progress and evolve as a person. As the Sun enters Leo today, embrace your lessons because they become part of you.
7-24-2011 Sunday	If you feel as if it's you against the world today, you're probably right. A change of course is likely and guess who is going to have to move, no matter how much kicking and screaming you do. Continuing to expand your sense of security is favored, particularly as you get rid of those things you no longer need. Simplifying your life can really help, but is obviously easier said than done.
7-25-2011 Monday	This is a favorable day to sort a few things out which involve what you think you want versus what you really want. What you figure out will bring about a shift to a slightly different course and may require breaking loose from something in the past. An unexpected event or situation may come your way which gets the whole process rolling. If your head and heart have been in different places lately now is a good time to get them in synch.
7-26-2011 Tuesday	The next few days expect a blast or two from the past or perhaps encountering someone on a power trip. Information is likely to be foggy or downright deceptive, so check your sources and don't trust your own sense of reality, either. On the positive side, taking on new responsibilities is favored as well as breaking free from something which has been holding you back and perhaps finally learning an important lesson. Keep your eyes open for what could be a new money making opportunity the comes out of nowhere, but will require a change of direction.
7-27-2011 Wednesday	Taking action on an inspired idea or something you've been dreaming of for a long time is favored today but it's going to take some effort to make it happen. Make sure that your information is sound, however, and not based on total fantasy. You may have some old beliefs you need to ditch that you're resisting, but it will be to your benefit to make a few adjustments. Surprises or unexpected events are out there but there should be a silver lining.
7-28-2011 Thursday	If you've been fantasizing or ignoring reality as it relates to love or money you may be in for a rude awakening as new information comes your way. Changes or disruptions which are contrary to what you want to accomplish are likely to bring about a dramatic reaction on your part followed by digging in your heels and resisting that which is staring you in the face. Remember that ignoring the facts doesn't change the facts.
7-29-2011 Friday	Resistance to reality is still fairly high though the Universe is really trying to tell you something. While Venus, natural ruler of love and money, transits Leo, a sign associated with romance and speculation, you may encounter a few surprises or disruptions in this part of your life. Hanging on to old, outdated beliefs will drain your energy and ultimately hold you back, so loosen your grip to whatever it is you're clinging to and listen up.
7-30-2011 Saturday New Moon	New Moon today as described in your monthly horoscope. There's quite a bit of action going on which should make things interesting. Expect to see some limitations accompanied by the need for a few adjustments which could simply involve eliminating something though it is likely to be easier said than done. Nonetheless, if you want to take action on your dreams, sacrifices will be required so it's mainly a matter of deciding what your priorities are and then putting your money where your mouth (or heart) is.
7-31-2011 Sunday	I have said this way too many times, but it's written all over today's chart and that is "If you keep on doin' what you've always done, you'll keep on gettin' what you've always got." If your life is exactly where you want it to be, then you've got this figured out. If it's not, then you need to figure out what you need to let go of so you can change direction. The opposition between Mercury and Neptune suggests a conflict between your dreams and thoughts. Work on resolving that and you may have the better part of it solved.
8-01-2011 Monday	The aspects today look like a game of laser tag so expect a busy day. Things look good for your sense of security along with a few surprises that should be favorable. If you're doing any data mining follow your instincts and it's also favorable to address any old baggage you're toting around, which has the potential to result in a new direction that takes you by surprise. Don't believe everything you see or hear today or be too ego-centric or you may not like the result.
8-02-2011 Tuesday	Things are still complex creating a multitude of influences some good, some bad, some indifferent. Continue to monitor your thoughts for accuracy, eliminating those that don't meet muster. Opportunities to rework your finances or a relationship are out there along with good vibes for discussing anything unresolved from the past, which could result in a change of course. Expect the unexpected; don't take any unnecessary chances, and if you're trying to figure something out and can't make any progress try a philosophical approach.
8-03-2011 Wednesday	Things don't look very friendly out there today with an aspect pattern called a Grand Cross, which indicates tension all over the place. The general flavor is to expect a few surprises that will affect your emotionally. What you want is not necessarily what you get and those who fail to learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. On the positive side, no matter how bad things may appear, there is always a way to profit from them. Put on your thinking cap and figure it out.
8-04-2011 Thursday	Continue to give your thoughts and ideas a sanity check, something favored by Mercury retrograde. Rethinking something gives you a chance to find anything you overlooked originally and bring it to perfection, something Mercury is Virgo simply loves to do. Don't take any unnecessary chances these days whether it involves a possible accident or confrontation with someone or something in a position of power. In other words, if you pi$$ the wrong person off, it may not end nicely. Getting what you want has resistance, but it only means that you need to work harder.
8-05-2011 Friday	There's another busy looking chart today with a variety of implications. Information related to the past could surface which effects a sudden change to how you feel about something. However, caution is advised, because what you find out may not be accurate, so don't get all fired up until you're sure. Opportunities exist to gather other information as well while you're checking things out, so make sure your cell is fully charged.
8-06-2011 Saturday	There's a lot of romantic passion out there today, but it has the potential to have a bit of selfishness, ego and lust involved that won't necessarily lead to a permanent or stable relationship unless you approach it in a responsible manner, so bear that in mind. If you've been having weird dreams lately you can blame that on the opposition between Mercury and Neptune which will blend your thoughts with your subconscious in a potentially weird way. Bad boys Pluto, Uranus and Mars are moving into a T-square which is likely to bring some disruptions and disturbances your way in one form or another which probably relate to the past.
8-07-2011 Sunday	You may encounter some confusing information or thoughts today that you can't quite figure out. This is not to say that it's wrong, only that you may have trouble understanding what it means. The potential for disruptions is still high, even though their end result can be positive. The astrological climate is favorable for discussing anything you may be dealing with at this time with an older, more experienced individual or perhaps an authority figure.
8-08-2011 Monday	This is a great day for getting to know your significant other a little better, no matter how long you've been together. Such topics as your philosophy of life, expectations of each other, and feelings toward your responsibilities where the relationship is concerned are all good topics to pursue. Learn a little more about each others' past, dreams, and where you hope to be headed. You may bump heads on a few things, but try to see each others' viewpoint, even if you ultimately agree to disagree.
8-09-2011 Tuesday	That T-square is about as close to exact as it's going to get which implies a few surprises, disruption or other nuisances from the past or that need to be cleaned up are about to get your attention if they haven't already. Your imagination can help you out today, however, along with some originality in your approach to a solution. You're probably going to have to rethink something, which may actually conflict with that original solution. Your instincts are probably more on target than your brain, so you may want to just go with them.
8-10-2011 Wednesday	Mercury is still opposing Neptune which may be bringing some weird dreams your way. In the spirit of Mercury retrograde, give some thought to something which you wish you could do over. Even if it can't be undone, don't lose the lesson. Old family issues could be popping up which you have to deal with unexpectedly. Your instincts are probably better than your logic at the moment so give them serious consideration. An authority figure or general responsibilities may be getting your goat today. Again, don't lose the lesson.
8-11-2011 Thursday	Mercury and Neptune continue to due the tango. Besides messing with your dreams this pair, especially with both of them retrograde, can also mess with your head and thinking ability generally. On the positive side you could get some pretty imaginative ideas, just give them a sanity check before spending your entire paycheck on lotto tickets. Keep pondering your past and anything you may need to resolve or change. Yes, you can change it by remembering it in a more positive way. Really.
8-12-2011 Friday	Nothing much out there today is new, which is probably just as well since most of us already have about all we can handle. You may have plans to do something around home which will require a change of direction, perhaps due to something else coming along, such a get-together with your friends. You may be all for it but your significant other may have different ideas. Continue to keep your eyes open and pay attention to what's going on around you.
8-13-2011 Saturday Full Moon	Full Moon today as described in your sign's monthly Horoscope. It's looks like a day which will include some challenges with the best thing out there pointing toward deeper and perhaps even a philosophical understanding of something or someone from your past. Communications are still likely to be honked up and easily misunderstood, including your own thoughts. Things will continue to be loaded with instability and surprises for a while yet, so stock up on whatever you utilize to de-stress.
8-14-2011 Sunday	Continue to maintain a healthy skepticism of what you hear. Between Mercury retrograde and the fact he's opposing Neptune, chances of things be off to a lesser or greater degree are rather high. The Sun and Venus are conjunct today which is especially fortuitous for those of you whose birthday is today since you'll enjoy that benefit for the coming year via your solar return. Mitigating anything that pops up unexpectedly of an unpleasant nature, which we've seen a lot of lately, involves maintaining a healthy and optimistic perspective. Not much else you can do about most of it, I'm afraid.
8-15-2011 Monday	Are we having fun yet? Here it is another Monday, that nasty T-square is still cranking away causing a bunch of crap, Mercury is still retrograde and roughly opposing Neptune which is making this RX period even more fun than usual. The good news is...let's see. The good news is that your internet is apparently working as well as your computer because you're reading this and, as with any astrological aspect for good or ill, this, too, shall pass. You just may have to get past the bridge troll in Monty Python's Holy Grail to get there.
8-16-2011 Tuesday	Uh-oh. Neptune is opposing Mercury RX, Venus and the Sun, which are in close conjunction in Leo. This could certainly bring about some delusions yet will be mighty helpful if you're taking my advice from a few days back to reinvent the past. You can remember things how you like but don't expect other people to buy into it, if you know what I mean. Actually, the Sun and Venus are in an conjunction known as a "cazimi" today, which translates "in the heart of the Sun" because it is so close to exact. If this hits your chart right it could help you present yourself very well and perhaps rectify or re-do something better as a result. If it's your birthday you're in good shape for the coming year.
8-17-2011 Wednesday	This is another day which doesn't look very friendly, in and of itself, but it may hit your chart in a benign way and thus not bring you any specific trouble. Nonetheless, that tension continues with regard to communications and possible delusions. There may also be a tendency to be a bit self-centered in your view of things. Therefore, you should make an effort to see the other side of things and expand your view of the situation if you want to avoid out and out conflict.
8-18-2011 Thursday	This is a favorable day to confront someone like your boss or other authority figure type with regard to a misunderstanding or some other matter which hasn't been sufficiently addressed. Power struggles are possible, along with the possibility of a lecture to go along with it. Expressing yourself may be a bit difficult and likely to be mistaken as aggression. In other words, it looks like a good day to stay home and do whatever it takes to escape for a while.
8-19-2011 Friday	The Moon is lending some stability and common sense to you today, which can't hurt the way things have been lately. Expanding your understanding of a family situation is also favored. Numerous challenging aspects are still active, however, even though they're shifting. The T-square that was troubling us last week has dissipated but now Mars is moving into a square with Saturn which isn't exactly enchanting, either. Watch out for more confrontations where you can't win for losing.
8-20-2011 Saturday	If you're trying to get somewhere with something but not making any progress take advantage of that Mercury retrograde energy to rethink the situation and figure out how to change course with a new approach. If there's someone in your family you simply don't understand, there's some favorable energy out there to help you figure that out, too. On the other hand, be wary of anything related to love or money because there's a higher than usual chance you're not seeing things the way they really are.
8-21-2011 Sunday	On the positive side, you should be able to get moving on something you've wanted to do, especially around home. On the not so positive side, communications are still garbled and today the Moon is mixing things up even more. Uranus and Pluto are still squared off in a less than friendly manner so continue to exercise caution since there have been a variety of rather freak accidents lately, though at least the ones I know of haven't involved anyone getting hurt physically, only financially. Mars and Saturn, two more astrological bad boys, are also squared off, implying arguments with authority figures.
8-22-2011 Monday	Things have quieted down out there a bit, though some of those bad boys are still up to no good. At least they're not all collaborating quite as much as last week, but you still need to exercise caution. There's a nice trine between Venus and Pluto which would usually bring something to light from the past with regard to love or money. However, Venus in Virgo isn't the best placement due to that sign's meticulous nature. Thus, if you find yourself tempted to nag someone about past events, you may want to rethink it. That nice Gemini Moon will help with the logic, but that may not be what you need. Compassionate Chiron is fortunately in there, too, and should provide needed assistance.
8-23-2011 Tuesday	The Sun goes into Virgo today to join Venus. This is a good time of year to do some serious planning and organizing and with Pluto's help some de-junking, but you may not be realistic about what you want to accomplish. Keep it manageable to avoid disappointment. An unexpected change of course is possible which may serve as motivation. Clashes with family members or authority figures continue to be more likely so guard your tongue appropriately.
8-24-2011 Wednesday	The planets are having quite the variety of conversations with the Moon playing a significant rule as she cruises through emotional and intuitive Cancer. If you are dealing with an issue that involves love or money, and most of us are in one form or another, today listen to your heart as opposed to your head which is probably honked up anyway given the fact Mercury is still retrograde. There is actually a nice combination of rational and emotional energies out there today so do your best to find a solution which satisfies them both.
8-25-2011 Thursday	Watch for various interlocking situations to come to light today which necessitate a sudden shift in a different direction. Thus, if you're trying to hide something, it may not be for long because illusions will have a hard time persisting in the full light of day. This goes for individuals and all the way up the chain to corporations and governments. Pluto in Capricorn is doing a number on them as it is with Uranus in Aries making sure it's done in a somewhat explosive way. Saturn is trying to hold it all together but Mars is pushing the envelope trying to stir things up. Hang on, Sloopy; Sloopy hang on.
8-26-2011 Friday	The planets are still quite busy stirring things up for us humans down here on Planet Earth. Revelations remain on the agenda which will facilitate some sudden changes of direction, some at the emotional level. Confrontations are still possible as well as a few roadblocks keeping you from going where you want to go. Illusions won't fare well at this time but attention to detail and solid principles hold significant promise. The urge to indulge impulsively in something you've been wanting could be strong so take any needed precautions against something you're regret later, such as staying away from temptation.
8-27-2011 Saturday	Nothing much has changed since yesterday except for Mercury coming out of retrograde which is worth at least a minor celebration. With the Sun in Virgo it's a favorable time to organize things and take a hard, practical look at what's going around you, particularly at work. If you're out of work, then get organized with your job search or any other alternative plans. If you're short on ideas look to your past and what you enjoyed doing when you were younger or perhaps even what you wanted to be when you "grew up."
8-28-2011 Sunday New Moon	There's a very interesting New Moon out there today which is described for your specific sign in the Monthly Horoscope section of this website. There is a tremendous amount of energy being pumped into this lunation which will give it particularly significance for those of you with planets between 3 - 5 degrees with Earth Signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) also likely to be quite influenced by it. Read your horoscope for August and see how it works for you.
8-29-2011 Monday	Keep an eye out for some good luck today, wherever you may need it. It will be especially useful at work, dealing with details, repairing something or finding an error before someone else does. This is also favorable for taking a close look at your finances and planning accordingly. This is not to say that those challenging aspects aren't still out there, which I'm sure you get tired of hearing but need to remember. Surprises are still out there but the potential for a confrontation with an authority figure is gratefully beginning to fade.
8-30-2011 Tuesday	You may encounter a situation where you have to make a few adjustments today, particularly in any areas where you haven't been seeing things clearly. Nonetheless other influences remain favorable for redefining your outlook related to some part of your life, perhaps your job or health. Continue to give people a wide berth who could make your life unpleasant and likewise expect the unexpected.
8-31-2011 Wednesday	If you haven't done so already, take a good hard look at specific ways in which you can increase your personal, financial and emotional security. This may mean letting go of something you've been clinging to which has outlived its usefulness and needs to be eliminated to allow room for new growth. This is not necessarily an easy time with those hard aspects between malefic planets persisting for quite a while, but there is always valuable lessons to be learned and progress to be made.
9-01-2011 Thursday	Spend some time today enjoying something beautiful and allows you to escape from the stress of everyday life. This could be a quiet walk enjoying nature, a visit to a museum, listening to your favorite music, going to an uplifting movie or anything else you enjoy that renews your spirit. It's also a good day to dream and plan with someone you love or simply express your feelings for each other. Those other challenges are still out there but it doesn't mean you can't get away from them for a while.
9-02-2011 Friday	There's a reasonably good mix out there today with some help toward getting a project organized which has been getting out of hand for too long. Now is the time to tackle sorting through and eliminating anything that no longer serves your purposes which will make room for more to come into your life. Moving forward with other plans may still be hitting speedbumps but this should improve soon as we exit Mercury's shadow period and Mars moves out of the square with Saturn.
9-03-2011 Saturday	A misunderstanding could arise today which has emotional implications which will be further exacerbated by a waxing Scorpio Moon. Make sure you have all your facts straight and conversely get sufficient evidence to confirm what you're being told. If this matter is properly settled it can have a positive effect on the relationship by defining responsibilities as well as laying out expectations which is critically important to the success of any relationship.
9-04-2011 Sunday	For the next week or so be particularly careful with your communications to make sure you express yourself in a clear manner and that you understand anything someone is conveying to you. It is also a time when directions may seem confusing and there is a higher risk for traffic accidents and so forth since yours and everyone else's mental processes may be somewhat cloudy. Be particularly careful if you're acting like a know it all because you may wind up looking pretty foolish when you're proven wrong.
9-05-2011 Monday	The score today is even as far as favorable and unfavorable a.k.a. crappy aspects are concerned. That Uranus-Pluto square is still hanging in there which is the ultimate power failure aspect. It will be around through next month at least and the opposition between Mercury and Neptune is also in force for a few days which will probably honk up communications almost as well as Mercury RX. Make sure you say what you mean, understand what you hear, and read everything twice before signing on the dotted line. On the up-side, communicating your deepest feelings is favored along with expanding your material security through careful practicality.
9-06-2011 Tuesday	Continue to be a bit wary of any information or communications while Mercury and Neptune are in opposition. Confusion or deception are highly likely so don't take everything at face-value because it could be an illusion. Philosophical insights are still possible at a deep and lasting level which could affect your attitude toward material security. Now is an excellent time to figure out exactly what you need and don't need. Having too much to worry about on the material plane can prevent you from doing or finding something much more satisfying.
9-07-2011 Wednesday	The score is pretty even again as far as challenges versus favorable influences is concerned which certainly isn't a bad thing compared to some of the astrological stuff we've seen this year. Continue to be wary with regard to communications that aren't substantiated by fact and lay low when it comes to family members who may be prone to tantrums. The chance of encountering a rather intense disruption continues, business as usual, but working toward personal security in a planned, methodical way is favored along with romance, which has multiple things going for it. Not bad for the middle of the week.
9-08-2011 Thursday	Continue to conduct sanity checks with regard to your conversations and thoughts as the inclination toward fantasies and delusions continues for another few days. Your imagination may be more active than normal and thus lead you down a path that in actuality doesn't exist. An unexpected opportunity to break away from your normal routine is possible but make sure you don't do anything you might regret. Romantic vibes still hold a lot of potential but the gals need to make sure they aren't too picky or critical because the guys may be a little more vulnerable than usual.
9-09-2011 Friday	Mercury has moved into Virgo which is his very favorite sign of all the Zodiac because he can function there so well with regard to communications and ruling anything that moves. That opposition to Neptune may not bode very well with regard to windstorms, but now that Mercury is literally in his element your sense of discernment should improve. It continues to be a great time to do some planning, particularly with regard to your finances as well as generally incorporating more discipline and organization into this part of your life.
9-10-2011 Saturday	While some communications are likely to be misunderstood, there is also a chance to get new insights into something from the past in a sudden flash. This could change how you see a variety of things in the future. There is a limited window of opportunity to prove your worth to your boss through hard, meticulous work. You may not see the rewards instantly but your good work will be remembered and benefit your position later.
9-11-2011 Sunday	There are numerous aspects out there today which favor heart-felt interactions, particularly between you and your significant other though these may be best expressed through non-verbal means since the chance of not expressing yourself clearly or misperceptions remains fairly high. Bear this in mind if someone says something that hurts your feelings because there's a good chance they didn't mean it that way, just said it in a clumsy way or you heard it wrong. Remember that actions speak louder than words so making it clear that you care for someone before (or more importantly after) saying something critical can help prevent a major rift in a relationship.
9-12-2011 Monday Full Moon	Full Moon today, the effects of which are described in your sign's monthly horoscope. A change of direction with regard to love or money is possible which may include revising your dreams based on unexpected developments. It's not a very friendly world out there these days yet the most rewarding elements of human interactions are possible and even enhanced under the worst of circumstances. Sometimes showing compassion for someone else is exactly what you need to forget your own troubles.
9-13-2011 Tuesday	If you're in a romantic relationship this is a very favorable day to discuss your shared dreams Communications at a deep and philosophical level are possible in spit of the fact there is the chance for some disruptions today. Be flexible with your plans and keep your priorities straight. I hate to keep saying it, but that Pluto - Uranus square is still out there doing its thing which in many cases has been less than good when you consider this pair definitely has been having an effect on nature, lately.
9-14-2011 Wednesday	There's an aspect pattern known as a yod, a.k.a. a finger of God, out there which is going to last for a few days. These are interesting aspects which tend to point toward something important or fated. This could have interesting implications with regard to romantic relationships but both Venus and Mars are currently in the signs of their astrological "fall," which implies their energy is inhibited. Thus, if you meet someone you think is the person of your dreams be aware that you might not be seeing the genuine article. In fact, they may actually be better than they seem so don't make snap judgments, one way or the other.
9-15-2011 Thursday	This is a good day to define your dreams. That may sound like a waste of time, but seriously if you can't figure out exactly what they are your probability of reaching them is pretty low. This is a great day to take action on them, but you may find that you're having a harder time breaking free from your past than you realized. With the Moon and Mars in Mutual Reception, there is no better time than the present to take action in the direction you really want to go. Start with the thought "If money were no object, I would...."
9-16-2011 Friday	This is an excellent day to take the necessary steps to break away from something in your past which is holding you back in some way. You may not even know what it is, but it is affecting your outlook on life in a way which is keeping you from something you want. For clues look to something you've always wanted and haven't yet been able to attain, then remind yourself if you keep on doing what you've always done you'll keep on getting what you've always got.
9-17-2011 Saturday	Being driven emotionally to attain one of your dreams is possible provided you're willing to take a slightly different course of action. If your efforts so far have been deadlocked, a new, innovative approach is probably what you need. Now is the time to think outside the box, discard any old hang-ups which may be holding you back, and get your head and heart together with regard to exactly what it is you want.
9-18-2011 Sunday	If there is something you need to get rid of, now is as good of time as any, whether it involves cleaning out the garage or basement or getting rid of emotional baggage so you can move on. Deeper understanding is available which you can assimilate quickly once you make up your mind to change directions. Everyone has a dysfunction or two they'd do well to ditch, so take care of business while the Universe is pushing you in that direction.
9-19-2011 Monday	If you're trying to communicate with someone today you may have a tendency to get lost in the details so make it a point to get to the point by first deciding yourself what it is. It's a favorable day to decide what you really want and decide which changes you need to make to get there. Tweaks to both sides of the equation may be necessary but will result in a more realistic and viable goal.
9-20-2011 Tuesday	There's a lot of zodiacal action out there today which should make for an interesting day. If you haven't revised your dreams lately this is a good time to do so, right down to working up a detailed, viable plan to get there. Deep examination of your view of life is also on the agenda, if you haven't looked at it lately. Relationships are probably taking up a lot of your time and energy lately making it also a favorable time to understand your roots and the impact they have on who you are.
9-21-2011 Wednesday	This is another day where the transits look like a game of Pick-up Stix, if you remember that game from yesteryear. If something comes along today which digs up something from the past with an emotional impact, try looking at it in a philosophical way and see if it reduces the sting. Changing direction is harder for some people than others but it's always good to recognize if you're beating a dead horse.
9-22-2011 Thursday	The conflicts continue today as you attempt to work out some long-standing issues. Something may come to light today which helps you to see things more clearly. Taking action in a slightly abrupt manner toward a major change is possible, especially now that Mars is out of that soggy, Cancer environment where he can't function properly. Opportunities for communicating from the heart, however, are favored as well.
9-23-2011 Friday	The Sun goes into Libra today marking the autumnal equinox and introducing the first day of fall here in the Northern Hemisphere and first day of spring in the Southern Hemisphere. For those of us in Texas where we've suffering through the worst drought since the early 1800s this is a TGIF, or "Thank God it's Fall" moment. Romance is also highlighted today with a variety of vibes that point toward some adjustments, Catch-22 situations and course changes. In other words, if you dig in your heels you're likely to fall on your face.
9-24-2011 Saturday	Pursuing something you want is going to require a change of course, such as cleaning up some mess from the past and changing your attitude, before you can move forward. There's some cosmic help out there, however, which can help you pull things together more quickly than you realize if you set your mind on a realistic vision of what you want. The path is still strewn with obstacles, but in case you haven't noticed, that is largely what life is all about.
9-25-2011 Sunday	There's a nice Grand Earth Trine out there today connecting Jupiter, the Moon and Pluto which brings a touch of stability and problem-solving to that persistent T-square which also has Pluto at the top. New information continues to point toward a new approach which is certainly better than sitting there. In other words if something is in your way you do better to start moving toward it rather than waiting for it to get out of your way.
9-26-2011 Monday	Moving forward toward what you want is still on your radar but not quite in focus. If there is some major obstacle such as a corporation or the government in your way you will need to change your approach. Remember that fighting city hall tends to be an exercise in futility but the person you're dealing with is a human being. Use all that Libra energy to effect a fair approach and negotiable outcome that keeps everyone happy.
9-27-2011 Tuesday New Moon	New Moon today as described in your Sign's horoscope for this month. Remember that this is usually a favorable time to start some new endeavor related to the house in which it falls which means you Libra's out there should be thinking about your personal goals for the coming year. The only ones who can effectively do so at New Years time are the Capricorns. For now it looks as if you may be faced with some unexpected relationship issues which will dredge up issues from the past and require a new approach. For more details consider getting a Solar Return report which will yield all sorts of good information.
9-28-2011 Wednesday	Taking action continues to be favored with opportunities out there to develop or expand a relationship which could take you in an entirely different direction. Mercury caught up with the Sun again after his little retrograde stint last month which drove us all crazy by messing with our electronics and other communication devices. This is not particularly favorable for conveying information, however, since it's likely to be overpowered easily by ego on one side of the other. So if you're encountering resistance wait a few days and try again.
9-29-2011 Thursday	There is a lot of unusual energy out there besides the ongoing influences which have been in effect for several weeks. The tendency to blow something all out of proportion will be stronger than usual today so guard your temper or you may regret it later. It's a favorable time, however, to address both boundaries and responsibilities in any relationships and expressing yourself. However, while it's important to be honest in your conversations be sure you listen as much as you speak and seek understanding even if it requires you to make a few adjustments in how you see the situation.
9-30-2011 Friday	There's a lot of very nice Libra energy out there these days which will add you to you diplomacy and ability to communicate in a fair, effective way, at least in theory. Of course there are some opposing forces out there as well, implying a fair share of opposition and obstacles of one kind or another but maybe the lesson is simply that old adage that says you can get more flies with honey and vinegar.
10-01-2011 Saturday	There's a whole bunch of energy in Libra currently which can contribute greatly to positive and fair communications. If there is anyone in your life with whom you need to have a difficult conversation this can be very helpful, especially today when the Moon and Jupiter combine with the Sun to form a Yod or Finger of God, an aspect that often points toward a fated or important event or action. The Moon in Sagittarius lends philosophical perspective while the Libra Sun provides balance and fairness. Jupiter's function, particularly since he's retrograde, will also contribute to philosophical insights, especially as they relate to ethics. So tie these all together and put them to work in the best possible way.
10-02-2011 Sunday	The energy out there today points toward a chance to move toward something you want at a personal level which may involve a relationship. There may be an obstacle or two in the way, such different religions or cultures, but this is an excellent time to discuss those differences, expand your understanding a bit and make a few adjustments to your world view.
10-03-2011 Monday	Pluto and the Moon conjunct today which is likely to dredge up something or someone from your past, perhaps in a surprising way such as running into your ex at the grocery store. Taking a close look at your philosophy of material comfort is favored along with perhaps a change of course once you figure out what means the most to you, your relationships or money.
10-04-2011 Tuesday	Gaining deeper understanding of certain situations from your past as well as defining a pleasant vision for your future are both favored today along with an opportunity to take action on it, even if it's one small baby step. As long as you continue to move in the right direction the Universe will pave the way. Relationship issues may get on your last nerve today or you may encounter someone who thinks so entirely different from you that you're certain they're a space alien. Rest assured they probably think the same of you.
10-05-2011 Wednesday	You may find yourself going in circles mentally today as you try to justify something you want in spire of the fact you know that it's not the practical, responsible thing to do. Uranus in Aries may trick you into it if you're not careful. Remember that a good rule is to wait at least 24 hours. Then, if it's a major purchase that you'll be paying for well into the future, think about whether it will still be so important or still in one piece by the time it's paid off.
10-06-2011 Thursday	If you tend to have a temper keep a tight grip on it today or it may cause more trouble than indulging it is worth. It's a great day to take a break and escape the stress in your life by doing something you enjoy, the farther from reality the better. For example, watching your favorite movie, especially one that makes you laugh, would be time well-invested. Better yet, invite some friends over to enjoy it with you.
10-07-2011 Friday	This continues to be an excellent time for exchanging information, whether it's on a one-to-one basis or as a group. Group synergy is favored with brainstorming with a touch of inspiration possible. Examining past mistakes on an individual or corporate level with a philosophical or ethical spin also has some cosmic assistance at this time. Everyone may not agree but that will only make the entire discussion more interesting.
10-08-2011 Saturday	You may be more sensitive emotionally today than usual due to that Pisces Moon. Fantasizing about love or money is favored so if you've been having a difficult time defining your dreams this would be an excellent day to figure out what they are. If all else fails, imagine that you found a genie in a bottle and what your three wishes would be.
10-09-2011 Sunday	Expect the unexpected today, particularly from someone you're close to. This is not to say that this won't be a positive thing, it could turn out to be a rather pleasant surprise. It's a good idea to be perfectly honest today about everything which includes your feelings and beliefs as much as anything else. This can lead to some important shifts in your understanding and how you see the world as well as getting to know someone else at a deeper level.
10-10-2011 Monday	Unexpected course changes can be expected, perhaps at your own volition because you're tired of the status quo and are ready to do something, even if it's wrong. Group activities still tend to be interesting with the tendency to get fired up a possibility in spite of the fact that no one is seeing things as they really are. Wanting to get to the bottom of certain situations continues to be a theme as well which is well served by a stellium in fair and balanced Libra.
10-11-2011 Tuesday Full Moon	Full Moon in Aries today as described in your sign's monthly horoscope. As always, this lunation is likely to bring an ending, culmination or shift to a new phase in some part of your life. This will most likely include some surprises or disruptions which may require a change of direction, justifying your position or even a Catch-22 situation is also possible. Make sure that you express yourself clearly and make sure that you are understood as intended. Conversely, if you're not sure what someone means by something, be sure to ask for clarification.
10-12-2011 Wednesday	The Moon will be stirring up a few things today as he completes his trek through Aries and perhaps gets you involved in some opposition that involves authority figures and/or some news or information. Old relationship issues continue as an ongoing theme as well with the Universe deliberately encouraging you to consider the past in light of your current more evolved understanding.
10-13-2011 Thursday	There is a rather strong possibility for conflict today which could involve the proverbial irresistible force being pitted against an immovable object with the argument likely to involve a principle or idea you feel strongly enough about to fight for. This could come from unexpected information coming your way, though you need to be sure and confirm that what you're hearing is accurate before getting your panties in a wad.
10-14-2011 Friday	Expect to make various adjustments or course changes today because things are not to go as expected, whether it's in the form of disruptive events or surprises of some other variety. There's a lot of philosophizing in the air lately, especially about money, which also seems to be disappearing at an alarming rate. Trust your instincts today, especially if they're telling you not to do something you think you want. Deception is in the air so be on your guard.
10-15-2011 Saturday	There's a very interesting yod out there today which won't last very long but could nonetheless bring you a sudden bit of information which will have an interesting impact of you mentally and emotionally. There are numerous favorable vibes out there for reassessing past events and situations and gaining new insights and opinions. If you've ever wondered how you can change the past, one way is to simply see it in a different light.
10-16-2011 Sunday	The way to deal with any philosophical or ethical issues which may arise is to not be superficial about it. Talk is cheap and in this case emotion is, too. In order to resolve it once and for all is to get to the heart of the matter, dig out all the facts, no matter how unpleasant or surprising they may be. It continues to be a reasonably favorable time for communications provided you don't get so passionate about your point of view that it's a turn-off to the other person.
10-17-2011 Monday	This is another great day for creative thought mingled with logic, which can help you attain your dreams. You are likely to come up with a variety of reasons why they're impossible but remember whatever you can conceive you can achieve. This will require ditching old patterns of negativity so you can free yourself from their grasp and move forward. As always this is easier said than done but well worth the trouble.
10-18-2011 Tuesday	Jupiter retrograde has you rethinking something which could go way back and relate to your family in some way. As difficult as it may be to talk such matters through to resolution that is usually the only way to resolve it and put it to rest once and for all. Sometimes when you don't take the initiative to take care of such situations the Universe will slap you upside the head with some unpleasant event to get you moving. It's your choice regarding whether you're willing to do it on your own or not.
10-19-2011 Wednesday	If someone who resembles an authority figure gets after you today your reaction is likely to be more emotional than normal. That ongoing issue that's been bothering you may stir up an angry reaction today, which could be an indication that you are gradually processing it with resolution just around the corner. One thing to remember in all human relationships is that you can't expect perfection unless you can offer it yourself.
10-20-2011 Thursday	Discussions with members of the opposite gender may encounter a few roadblocks today and it's not likely you're going to change your thinking on the subject. Your best bet is to go for an entirely new approach which hopefully both of you can agree on. It continues to be a favorable time to do some major housecleaning, either literal or figurative. Getting rid of old thought patterns or other self-defeating behaviors are favored as well. As Einstein is credited with saying, though I haven't verified it, "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results."
10-21-2011 Friday	Chances of encountering an argument today are higher than usual. Being able to agree is highly unlikely since both of you are going to dig in your heels and stick to your opinions with no interest or regard for the other side of the story. Remember that the traditionally taboo subjects of politics and religion seldom reach a viable compromise so if your subject matter is similar you'd do well to save your breath.
10-22-2011 Saturday	The Moon creates a nice Grand Earth Trine today which can be helpful in stabilizing your thinking. You'll be able to address the appropriate level of detail and depth to come up with a viable conclusion. This may result in the necessity to change direction, however, and may even appear to conflict with your dreams. This is not necessarily the case, however, you may simply need to redefine them or take a different route. Remember there are few mistakes, only detours.
10-23-2011 Sunday	The Sun is a sneeze away from Scorpio but will be there before the end of the day. Watch for an unexpected change of direction which may be contrary to your opinion or not what you consider to be the ideal outcome from your knothole. Those gender conflicts are still in effect, making communications a bit tense but there is a lot of sexual energy there so no telling what could happen. Be honest in your communications and feel free to express your feelings. An opportunity to move forward on something you want is possible as well.
10-24-2011 Monday	There could be a surprise or upset today with regard to a relationship which is likely to relate to an old matter you've either purposely ignored or possibly honestly forgot. Pursuing someone or something you want is still favored, just make sure you know the difference between fantasy and reality. Vibes between the genders are still a bit tense with the female persuasion having a bit of an advantage.
10-25-2011 Tuesday	The potential for arguments continues but there are indications that a mediator or impartial third party may be able to help you arrive at a solution, even though one of you is going to have to give up a little more than the other. Thus if you do bring someone else into the matter you need to both agree to go with the recommendation. Before putting too much on the line be sure to take a few moments to consider your side as objectively as possible to make sure you have the facts you need to substantiate what you want. If it's your birthday today, expect a change of course and numerous surprises, not only today but possibly throughout the coming year as well.
10-26-2011 Wednesday New Moon	New Moon today which is more fully described in the monthly horoscope for your specific sign. It has great potential for an unexpected change of direction, possibly due to some inspiration. Your entire attitude and/or approach could shift which may be exactly what needs to be done to make progress. That male-female deadlock continues but maybe this lunation will help push that in a more productive direction as well.
10-27-2011 Thursday	What you want and what you get, whether it's love or money, continues to be at a standoff. You probably still don't like what you're hearing and surprises, some of which are deeply rooted in the past, are not helping. There is a whole bunch of energy in Scorpio today which you can put to good use in uncovering secrets but be aware that what you find may be a bit more than expected.
10-28-2011 Friday	News about money and financial matters may be a bit stressful today but make sure that the information is accurate before getting to stressed out. This is not to say it won't be true, but make sure. Opinions are cheap these days about the economic picture but there's a good chance that some interesting could surface soon. Reworking your financial plan makes sense, just make sure you're moving in the right direction.
10-29-2011 Saturday	There are still some stressful influences out there which are likely to affect communications about love and/or money. If you're pushing for something you want make sure you're not being unrealistic or not seeing things the way they really are. Ethics issues are also likely to arise at this time, especially any sleazy activities which have heretofore been keep underwraps. If you think anything that matches that description has been going on your chances of finding it at this time is receiving some cosmic assistance. Bon chance.
10-30-2011 Sunday	Questioning or pondering issues that just don't seem right is emphasized along with a quest for answers which don't come across as superficial. The Sun is in Scorpio, a serious and potentially obsessive and passionate sign which tends to delve deeply into the issues of life. This combined with Pluto, Scorpio's ruler, in Capricorn, domain of corporations and governments, should bring some interesting revelations all around you. I don't like to dwell on long-duration aspects which have negative potential but it seems there have been quite a few accidents and so forth lately thanks to that applying square between Uranus, planet of surprises and disruptions, and Pluto, who is typically not very forgiving of our mistakes. Be careful.
10-31-2011 Monday	Be a bit skeptical about anything you hear about love or money today because it might not be real much less accurate. Be particularly cautious with regard to anyone who would like to get their hands on your bank account. Give some thought and consideration to what place money holds in your list of priorities and whether or not it is appropriately placed, one way or the other. Innovative ideas could come your way over the next several days which are worth considering, so take note.
11-01-2011 Tuesday	Conflicts are still out there, including the possibility for some confusion in your communications. If you really get passionate about something there is a distinct possibility that you are chasing a rainbow. What you see is not necessarily what you get. Remember, also, that those who refuse to learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. If there is a sense of deja-vu to what you're dealing with, give that some thought. Bear this in mind: "Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me."
11-02-2011 Wednesday	The potential to obsess on something is higher than usual while the Sun is in passionate Scorpio. Bear that in mind if you have trouble sleeping or your friends' eyes glaze over when you're going on about something. Your head and heart are likely to be out of synch as well, complicating matters even more. In other words, you may know what you're troubled about doesn't make sense yet keep beating that dead horse regardless. Deception and misunderstandings continue to be more common than usual as well. On the upside, speaking from the heart is favored.
11-03-2011 Thursday	The tendency to want or pursue something which is somewhat unrealistic continues so make sure you're not wasting your energy on a pipedream. If you can't come up with a logical way to get there and are depending too much on luck, you may want to take another look at your approach. Mercury and Venus have been traveling together for several days now which may soften your delivery of what's on your mind but make sure you're still saying what you mean.
11-04-2011 Friday	Venus and Mercury are visible as evening stars so watch for them after sunset. They may be so close together that it's hard to tell which is which. This pair which is in the same degree of the zodiac is also stirring up a few things with regard to love and money. If you've been confused about one or both of them lately, this is part of the reason why. Jupiter continues to push for a change of direction as well though this may be more on the mental plane. Pondering your sense of security is a likely theme, particularly if any unexpected events have come your way lately. If you feel as if you're being held back from what you want take a close look to see if you're being too idealistic and thus not seeing the forest for the trees.
11-05-2011 Saturday	You may encounter some interesting thoughts or be involved in a through-provoking conversation today which nudges you in a slightly different direction. It's important to make sure that you're heading in the right direction and not chasing rainbows. Unexpected happening with regard to the structure of government and corporate entities continue. If so far you've escaped being impacted by the chaos consider what your plan will be if they find your door.
11-06-2011 Sunday	Expect to change your mind about something today which may also nudge you in a different direction than you'd originally been going. Continue to keep on the lookout for those "blasts from the past" which may be coming back to haunt you as well. Whatever you do, don't bury them again or they will continue to come at you like zombies arising from the grave. (Yes, I realize that Halloween was a week ago, that just seemed like a suitable analogy.) There is also a chance that whatever that particular zombie happened to be was also what helped you see something you hadn't before.
11-07-2011 Monday	If you feel as if you're caught between a rock and a hard place, take a breather to decide what your priorities really are. Bear in mind that money may not be what you need to make you happy, even though there is no argument that money is most important when you don't have enough. Short of living in a box under a bridge, consider what you want the most and whether you are heading toward it or away from it. For this exercise, use your heart, not your head. Logic does not apply.
11-08-2011 Tuesday	An unexpected or sudden change of direction is possible today, perhaps as the result of a sudden flash of insight or possibly an impulsive emotional need to pursue something you've wanted for a long time. Mercury and Venus continue to travel together in partile conjunction, softening your thoughts and opening your heart to information as well as your head. Life is too short to cut yourself off from someone who cares about you simply because you don't understand them in some way. Like the old Native American saying goes, don't judge anyone until you've walked a mile in their moccasins.
11-09-2011 Wednesday	Something may be holding you back from where you want to go, perhaps because you're being too much of an idealist and thinking it needs to be all or nothing or perhaps you think it's impossible. Now is a favorable time to figure out how to bring it into tangible form with Saturn's help. Mercury and Venus are still blending their energy as well which should help you maintain some optimism. Keep an eye out for a surprise development which might be just the break you need.
11-10-2011 Thursday Full Moon	Full Moon today which is described in your monthly horoscope. Sudden or unexpected changes which require a change of direction are likely. Things you thought were firm and secure may slip away, but this may not be a bad thing. This applies equally to that giant obstacle you're been fighting. Your thought processes are enhanced these days so don't pass up this chance to get anything sorted out which previously seemed insurmountable.
11-11-2011 Friday	Today is certainly one of those very cool dates for being born, married or some other meaningful event. Try to make it a day to remember for something in your life as well. For example, if you're in some sort of a dilemma or trying to decide between something you want to do versus something you should do your heart is in a position today which may make this more difficult such that you feel as if you're between the proverbial rock and a hard place. Talking yourself into something when your heart isn't in it typically doesn't bring the results you want. It's time to think outside the box and seek a solution that is the best possible compromise.
11-12-2011 Saturday	A nice Grand Earth Trine is in the process of forming between Pluto, Jupiter and Mars and will be in effect for a while. The predominant energy of this aspect pattern centers on rethinking the past and then moving forward with a new detailed plan toward something you want. Self-doubts may be holding you back, in which case you need to break away from these old demons and develop a new set of dreams.
11-13-2011 Sunday	Bonus today with two Grand Trines, not only the Grand Earth Trine described yesterday but today for a short time, thanks to the Moon, you get a Grand Air Trine as well. Air Signs focus on information and communicating while Earth Signs are all about security, particularly of a material nature. This combination is perfect for determining exactly what you need to increase your sense of security. Some adjustments will be required to get your head and heart in synch and also let go of the past and anticipate a new future. Until you look forward instead of back being stuck is inevitable.
11-14-2011 Monday	In honor of it being Monday the Moon has now moved into a T-square with Pluto and Uranus. Fortunately Moon aspects don't last long. The essence of this one is the emotional challenges associated with breaking away from the past. She is also tying in with that nice Grand Earth trine via a sextile Jupiter to help you figure out a way to redefine your security needs. It's hard to move toward what you want when you don't know what it is.
11-15-2011 Tuesday	Getting your head and heart on the same page is favored today, making it a favorable time to make most decisions, at least those which benefit from input from both angles. A change of direction is likely to be involved which is a good thing if you're not overly enchanted with the status quo. This is not to say that it will be easy, but a window of opportunity may present itself for consideration.
11-16-2011 Wednesday	Be sure to take advantage of that Grand Earth Trine which will be in effect for a little over a week. Now is a favorable time to confront anything you've been sweeping under the rug, ignoring, or deluding yourself about. A shift or adjustment which includes breaking away from old patterns and setting out on a new path is part and parcel to making this aspect work for you. If you want to put the chips in place to pursue your dreams, don't miss out on this cosmic energy.
11-17-2011 Thursday	That Leo Moon will direct your thoughts to what you want and why you should get it, regardless of any obstacles which lie in your path such as money, being out of touch with reality, or the need to make some radical changes in the direction you're currently headed. Nonetheless, you can't go after what you want until you know what it is, so all in all this can be a good thing.
11-18-2011 Friday	That Grand Earth trine has been joined today by a T-Square which will throw a few challenges your way which may or may not be related to solving your security issues by rethinking a few things. Make sure that you're not wasting your energy being obsessive about something which is no more than a delusion. This could entail being too perfectionistic about something which, to the rest of the world, is good enough the way it is. For example, some writers tend to never finish something but rather abandon it because it's never perfect. If that sounds familiar break away from that particular shackle and get going.
11-19-2011 Saturday	The next few days are excellent for making a significant change of some description. Be sure to distinguish between natural fear of the unknown and a true, in-the-gut bad feeling. In particular keep a headlock on any self-defeating behaviors which may be holding you back. Unless you're deliriously happy with the status quo, which I assure you will not last forever since everything cycles, remember if you keep on doing what you've always done, you'll keep on getting what you've always got (with apologies to Virgo for the poor grammar).
11-20-2011 Sunday	Busy chart today, mostly thanks to the Moon. Fortunately she moves quickly so they will be of short duration. Expect some surprises or disruptions, but make sure you gather all the facts then use your head to work your way through them. Impulsively reacting to something which isn't accurate will simply cause more trouble. Relationship matters are favored provided each party shares the responsibilities in a fair manner.
11-21-2011 Monday	Relationship woes, past or present, may present themselves today as you encounter something which reminds you about them. This could be as simple as seeing someone who looks like your ex in the grocery store. Such things surface for a reason, typically because you are now in a position to deal with it from a different perspective than before. Be on the lookout and prepare to act on something unexpected which will come up in the next day or so and is likely to be a good thing.
11-22-2011 Tuesday	Things are looking much better today than they were except for the possibility for either some deception or conversely, insights, of a philosophical nature which may change your view of life or manner of thinking. The cosmos is still encouraging breaking away from whatever is holding you back. Seeking enlightenment is favored, particularly with regard to love or money along with some opportunities for the same. Remember that Grand Earth Trine is still out there encouraging stability to help as well.
11-23-2011 Wednesday	This is an excellent day for digging out facts or trying to get to the bottom of something, then deciding what your next step will be. More than likely it is going to entail a change of direction, adjustment, or justifying your current position. A confrontation with someone who is too picky or idealistic is possible but be aware that it might be you. Putting your dreams into action is favored as well, so keep watch for the right opportunity.
11-24-2011 Thursday	The Sun entered Sagittarius a few days ago, shifting his energy from the passionate intensity of Scorpio. This sign can be much more optimistic and jovial which help generate a bit more enthusiasm for the upcoming holidays. Speaking of which, Happy Thanksgiving, a.k.a. Turkey Day, to those of you in the United States. Bear in mind, however, that Mercury has gone into Trickster mode and will be retrograde until December 14. As always, avoid purchasing electronic or mechanical devices during this time, at least for yourself. If you intend them as a gift and the person they're intended for will receive them after that time, it probably will help mitigate it but is still a bit iffy. It would probably be better to put off buying such items entirely until the after-Christmas sales or the first of the year. Sorry.
11-25-2011 Friday	New Moon/Solar Eclipse today in Sagittarius with the lunation aspecting enough planets to make the outcome very interesting. This eclipse is a member of the 14 North family in the Saros Series. According to eclipse guru, Bernadette Brady, this eclipse family can bring confusion with regard to personal relationships, upsets financially and possibly illness. Other possibilities include "unrequited love, despair, confusion, a draining of energy, a peculiar turn of events." Making important decisions should be avoided at this time. See your monthly horoscope for some more ideas on how it might affect your sign.
11-26-2011 Saturday	Taking action to resolve old baggage is still favored though you may not make up your mind yet regarding exactly what to do until Jupiter comes out of retrograde on Christmas. Nonetheless considering the options is favored, particularly if it is an issue which requires careful consideration. Unexpected relationship problems have been a dime a dozen lately and further exacerbated by yesterday's eclipse. While figuring things out make sure you look at your own actions as objectively as possible. Mercury retrograde is good for rethinking old problems so that is in your favor as well.
11-27-2011 Sunday	The planets are currently distributed in what is called a Locomotive pattern which, as the name implies, represents strong, forward-moving action. This is further emphasized by the fact the lead planet in this powerful brigade is Mars. What is the Universe trying to get you to do which you're resisting? Ever hear the quote, "Resistance is futile?"
11-28-2011 Monday	There's a fairly even mix of favorable and challenging aspects out there today. People may be a little bit on the picky side, including yourself, particularly if something goes wrong which is almost guaranteed with Mercury doing the backstroke. Dealing with authority figures of any denomination is likely to result in a deadlock and your significant other is likely to throw something at you you're not expecting, either. Remember that a good, generic response for just about anything comprises, "Gee, I'm not sure. I'll have to think about that."
11-29-2011 Tuesday	The cosmic hub with the most activity today lies in Venus and Pluto. This can bring blasts from the past, deep introspections with regard to previous relationships, conflicts within your mind and heart, or a variety of other conflicts. Aspects between the genders are generally favorable, but this entire mental interlude may come about due to something which takes you by surprise. If nothing else take a few moments today to think about people from your past and what you learned from them. If there is anyone you didn't learn something from, then think again.
11-30-2011 Wednesday	This is a favorable time to be thinking about just about anything you have on your mind. Mercury is retrograde which is good for rethinking, re-planning, reconsidering, rewriting and so forth and Jupiter is still retrograde which takes your thinking beyond simple problem solving to the philosophical level. If relationship matters are giving you some trouble these days you're not alone. These are often deeply rooted in the past and need to be properly resolved before you can progress. Take advantage of these aspects to do some housecleaning on the mental and emotional level.
12-01-2011 Thursday	The devil is in the details today as you may find out the hard way. Be prepared to see things differently than you have in the past and acknowledge that, hard as it may be to believe, that you actually missed something. This is an excellent learning opportunity which will help expand your perspective and serve you well some time in the future. Seeing something through someone else's eyes can be very enlightening. Go with it.
12-02-2011 Friday	You may be more sensitive emotionally today expressing yourself, which is not always a bad thing. Feeling your situation at a deeper level can help you be more honest in conveying where you stand on an issue. Like the say, those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter. Lots of introspection and reconsideration is out there for the next few weeks so put it to work for you to understand yourself better. It may be just what you need to head in an entirely new direction.
12-03-2011 Saturday	If you're having trouble figuring something out try discussing it with someone older and wiser, which could give you an entirely new understanding of the situation. Mars in Virgo can incline you toward being critical, especially if you're in a position to criticize other people's work. The real key is to approach it in a positive manner such that you're a partner in assisting them to attain perfection by uncovering hidden flaws as opposed to simply being a harsh critic. Remember the old song which said, "A spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down..."
12-04-2011 Sunday	Today's transit chart looks like a variety of crossed swords from the good guys and bad guys. In fact, it is so mixed up it's downright humorous with the conflicts it creates. It appears that a past relationship may cause you some discomfort until you rethink it, at which time you may reach an entirely different conclusion. The other side is that taking action on it may put you right back where you started. That all reminds me of those situations where you ex does something stupid and you think (or say) "Thank you for reminding me why it's over...."
12-05-2011 Monday	Trying to talk through something from your past with the other party may not go well today, especially if there is a lot of finger-pointing going on. In most cases "it takes two" and if you're laying a bit too much blame on someone else don't expect to make any progress. This is not to say you aren't 100% correct, only that the other person won't see it that way. To be fair, think about how responsibilities of all varieties were shared and how you would see that mix if it applied to someone else, then try again.
12-06-2011 Tuesday	Pleasant memories are possible today as you recall someone from your past. It's also a favorable time to let go of something you may have been clinging to. Remember that sometimes you have to get rid of things which are old and worn out to make room for something new. Mercury retrograde effects may be more annoying than usual, especially if you're trying to start a new endeavor. Allowing your blood pressure to rise is not going to impress Mercury in the least, particularly when you aren't using his energy properly. This is the time to renew, review, revise, reset, rework, research, reinvent, redesign, etc.
12-07-2011 Wednesday	You may not get what you want today and have to negotiate a change of direction. There are some nice grounding effects out there so put them to work troubleshooting the obstacles. With Mercury retrograde pursuing new projects is going to be fraught with issues. This is the time for a re-do but first you need to identify what went wrong or how you can improve the next time. Trying to break away from convention is harder than you may think unless you have a solid philosophical reason behind it.
12-08-2011 Thursday	If you're striving for more security like most people these days, take a close look to determine what adjustments you need to make. You can't have your cake and eat it, too, so you're going to have to give up something. Whatever you do, don't give up your dream. Give up whatever is keeping you from making progress whether it's a bad habit, squandering your money, or simply wasting your time rather than moving toward your goal. Rethink your plan then act accordingly.
12-09-2011 Friday	There's a long-term aspect forming which will last until at least February between three outer planets which could turn out to be interesting. If you have a dilemma you're dealing with with regard to responsibility, perhaps involving a relationship and you're trying to figure out the right thing to do, trust your intuition to guide you to what may be an inspired solution. Today may bring information about something that occurred in the past and puts a whole, new spin on it.
12-10-2011 Saturday Full Moon Lunar Eclipse	Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse today which is described in December's horoscope for your sign. This one is likely to relate to philosophical differences which come about as a result of new information or possibly a change of heart. It could also indicate something is going to break down and the warranty isn't going to cover it as expected. Don't take it lying down but pursue it to the top of the food chain and you may get the results you want.
12-11-2011 Sunday	Some unexpected action on the part of a family member might stir things up a bit today. May be the season to be jolly but that is often easier said than done. Nonetheless, there's no time like the present to get a few things straightened out, especially when you try to see things objectively and/or philosophically. The past can either bind you together in a favorable manner or create an ongoing rift. You decide which one you think has the most value.
12-12-2011 Monday	Surprise someone today by showing your appreciation, perhaps by sincerely complimenting something they've done. Take note of how they react as opposed to how they react to criticism then consider which one you tend to dish out the most. The unexpected reversal of something you heard a while back could come out today, but this will not be a bad thing. If you're like most people these days and looking for more financial security you may encounter something or someone which reminds you that money is not the panacea for a peaceful existence.
12-13-2011 Tuesday	The Moon may mess with you a bit today and place you in a bit of a dilemma. If you get called into the boss' office it could be interesting, likewise if you happen to be the boss. Now is a favorable time to call on some inspiration which could change the course of what's developing. Having to re-do something unexpectedly continues to be a possibility, not necessarily because you made a mistake but perhaps because some other policy change or something has come long.
12-14-2011 Wednesday	An opportunity to pursue something with a lot of appeal may come your way but it's not going to be handed to you on the proverbial silver platter; it is going to take some work. Nonetheless, it may be well worth it so don't discount it without due consideration. Having to rework, edit, or redesign something you thought was finished continues to be likely, but you will like it much better when all is said and done. How you feel about authority figures may be rumbling around inside your head or surfacing as you encounter these people in your life. Confronting such thoughts is likely to bring out a variety of things about yourself worth noting.
12-15-2011 Thursday	A change of direction with a relationship is possible but not necessarily in a bad way. It may take some effort to get what you want but will probably be worth it. Gratefully Mercury has come out of retrograde which should make things run a little smoother than they have been. A touch of selfishness or egocentricism is possible with that Leo Moon or you may simply want to express your individuality and not be lumped in with the crowd. Be prepared to also express why you deserve better.
12-16-2011 Friday	Communications today may be a bit emotional, especially if they involve a disagreement over who does what. This is a favorable time to think about who does what best and possibly change things around a bit. Breaking free from convention or doing something differently than you ever did before is favored. If there are any old unresolved issues lurking around inside your head this is a favorable day to take care of business there as well.
12-17-2011 Saturday	Don't take it personally if things go wrong today, even though you're more likely than usual to be upset by such things. There is some help out there for dealing with roadblocks set up by the powers that be in a philosophical way. If you encounter a situation where you are up against an authority figure who clearly has a lot more power than you do it will be in your best interest to approach them in a charming and reasonable manner if you want to make progress. If you make them angry you probably won't like the result.
12-18-2011 Sunday	The planets are in a rather intense conversation today other than Mars, who is oddly enough sitting it out. A few things to watch for include a blast from the past and sudden understanding of something at the principle level which previously eluded you. A deadlock with someone in authority is still likely as well. On the favorable side, feel free to call upon your imagination and innovation for an escape plan as opposed to going the conventional route.
12-19-2011 Monday	There's quite a scramble going on out there which should make for an interesting day. Expect some surprises for the next few days though these may come in the form of unexpected opinions or insights into your own view of life. Inspiration is always helpful but the chances of it actually being useful are higher than usual since you should be able to integrate it into your life in a substantial way once you get it figured out. This is not to say it will be a piece of cake, but worth it in the long haul.
12-20-2011 Tuesday	The cosmic dance continues with a huge variety of influences out there. I usually keep these astrocasts pretty generic, but I feel as if I need to point out if your birthday is somewhere between July 19 - 25 your natal Sun is currently in the crosshairs of a Grand Cross. Thus, if your life is a bit unsettled or perhaps more like a train wreck, you can blame the cosmos. Career, relationships and home are probably you main concerns and somewhat tied in knots. Those born the end of September, January and April may be feeling some of the same. Your best bet is to do everything you can to maintain a hopeful attitude and seek inspired solutions.
12-21-2011 Wednesday	That cluster of planets hasn't done much changing since yesterday but the Sun is just a sneeze away from entering Capricorn later today, marking the winter solstice. There are some ongoing conflicts out there but numerous opportunities as well. It's a favorable time to address any unresolved issues you've been toting around, thinking matters through that relate to your security in some way and finding inspiration in places you'd never expect.
12-22-2011 Thursday	You may tend to overreact to something today due to either a complete misunderstanding or misinformation. Therefore it's a good idea to make sure you have things straight before getting your panties in a wad. Speaking for the heart is favored nonetheless. Expanding your understanding of something is likely as well. Continue to watch for opportunities to pursue what you want and don't be afraid to be spontaneous.
12-23-2011 Friday	Expect a few surprises, perhaps in the form of blasts from the past, which is fairly common this time of year when old memories are stimulated, for good or ill. If there is anything you should have resolved by now, use the season and the attendant gatherings to see what you can do to make peace so you can not only enjoy this year's celebration but the coming ones as well. Start by deciding whether you can be the better person and take the first step.
12-24-2011 Saturday New Moon	Christmas Eve New Moon today which is described in detail in your sign's monthly horoscope. This is the perfect time to begin a new cycle by ridding yourself of anything that is holding you back physically, emotionally, spiritually or financially. Enjoy your holidays but while you're semi-catatonic from all the food and drink be thinking about what you'll do differently in 2012.
12-25-2011 Sunday	Merry Christmas! May this be a joyful and memorable day for you and your loved ones. Try to take things today with a philosophical grain of salt and accept those around you for who and what they are, in which case they are more likely to do the same for you. If nothing else, remind yourself of those things which are most important, beyond the material gifts, and make love and joy your goal for the day.
12-26-2011 Monday	Take note of what you encounter today because it could be a prelude for what to expect from the New Moon next month. Unaspected Mars has been out there doing his own thing for a while now, which actually intensifies his energy. He is making himself at home there in Virgo where he is going to be until next summer. Generally this can make you more impatient than usual when things don't go as expected. On the positive side, it's favorable for tackling work that requires attention to detail. You may want to incorporate that into your New Years' Resolutions.
12-27-2011 Tuesday	The predominant aspect remains the triangle of potential linking Saturn, Neptune and Jupiter which is encouraging you to use your higher self and inspiration to resolve a dilemma in your life. Your head and heart can achieve meaningful dialog today which may be helpful as you draw from the past. Don't be put off if the solution seems difficult, it will be worth the effort.
12-28-2011 Wednesday	Old memories could surface today, particularly those which involve old, unresolved issues. You may also encounter a variety of power trips including a few of your own. Communications could be a bit testy, particularly if one of you is overly pushy and the other a bit high and mighty. An approach for dealing with something which has been holding you back is out there which will involve both your head and your heart. End the year right by figuring out what it is and committing to deal with it effectively so you can make more progress in the coming year than this one.
12-29-2011 Thursday	Your emotions may be running in high gear today, particularly with regard to any old unfinished business. This is the time to take care of it once and for all and give yourself the gift of peace of mind. This is not to say that it will be a piece of cake, but it will be worth the effort. Be aware that communications clashes are out there as well such as being too critical or perhaps a bit snooty. These behaviors obviously will not help you resolve anything. While you can't control the other person, you can make sure that you're as objective and fair as possible and hope it rubs off.
12-30-2011 Friday	Communications today may be more emotional than usual, especially when it comes to the details. It's likely that the two of you will be coming from entirely different sides and have a hard time seeing the other's point of view. Finding balance and a means for synthesizing the two positions is likely to result in a positive outcome so maintain an open mind and willingness to be flexible for the best results.
12-31-2011 Saturday	Pondering the past year may not be the most pleasant activity today, even though it is fairly likely on the threshold of a new one. Clearly 2011 has been brutal in many respects and unless you are entirely isolated from the real world, which is unlikely since you are reading this via the Internet, you undoubtedly are aware there are numerous ominous predictions out there for 2012. Bear in mind that other than being prepared for the worst there is nothing you can do about it, so don't waste valuable creative energy worrying about something that might not ever happen.
