I Am A Witch When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call me a “Witch”. Being a witch entails raising my children to be strong people |
|
| Who have a solid sense of personal and social responsibility
Who are not afraid to stand up for what they believe in Being a witch means that I am free to be the wonderful creature I am, When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak up against it, I am defined as a witch. I am proud to be a witch! It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won’t become anyone else’s idea of what they think I “should” be. I am outspoken, opinionated and determined. So, try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me. You won’t succeed. And if that makes me a witch, so be it. I embrace the title and am proud to bear it. I love this, I can call myself a witch now and not feel bad about it! SO MOTE IT BE! |

Honor Loved Ones: Make a Memory Candle
Adapted from By Candlelight, by Diana Rosen (Storey Books, 2002).
If you want to remember a departed human or animal loved one, the simple act of making a Memory Candle can bring great relief and healing. You can also do this to celebrate someone living, or to mark an important event like a graduation. Either way, the Memory Candle is a beautiful way to honor someone important to you.
1. Decide who you would like to honor in this way: it could be a deceased relative, friend, or companion animal, or someone with whom you have lost contact but still want to remember.
2. Choose a clear glass candle holder-a water tumbler or glass works well.
3. Find a photograph of the person you wish to honor in this way and make a photocopy of it, enlarging or reducing it to fit the height of the candle holder. If you don’t have a photo, you could do a simple drawing or make a photocopy of a memento you associate with that person or animal.
4. Wrap the photocopy around the glass and tape it securely. Place a nontoxic beeswax or soy wax candle in the glass. Place the Memory Candle in a special safe place and light the candle.
4. The soft glow of the candlelight will illuminate the photograph in a very beautiful and special way.
5. You can also pay homage to the living by naming this an “Honor Candle” and using a photograph to celebrate a graduation, marriage, birthday, retirement, anniversary, or other accomplishment of note.
Chant For Unlocking The Astral Gates
Syn, good Goddess of Locks and Doors,
Open the gates, I now implore,
Allow me to pass through the astral veil
With speed; grant fair winds to my sail.
And when I’ve gained what I can learn
Grant a hasty, safe return.

Do You Have a Celtic Soul?
Adapted from The Phoenix Cards, by Susan Sheppard (Inner Traditions, 1990).
A great deal of romance and intrigue surrounds the early Celts and their beliefs.
It is believed that the Celts may have originated around the Caspian Sea near Iran or in Kazakh, a province of Russia. Some have noted that there are striking similarities between the religious beliefs, laws, and languages of the Celts and those of the more ancient Hindus of India. After their arrival in Ireland, the Celts divided themselves into three classes: the Farmers, The Warriors, and The Druids.
There are mysterious connections between the Celts and many other indigenous peoples. Do you have Celtic heritage? Or do you feel a spiritual affinity with the Celts? Check out these personality traits:
These characteristics are generally true of those with Celtic leanings or heritage:
* You have tremendous insight into the psychology of others.
* Your understanding of human nature makes you especially perceptive, and potentially a gifted psychic.
* Your abilities tend to be more of an intuitive understanding of the motivation of others.
* You find your highest inspiration in the rhythms of nature.
* You are attracted to beautiful or unusual stones.
* You love a good story, whether it be in the listening or the telling.
* You are sensitive to both of the polarities that live inside of you. You naturally understand the concept of androgyny or unixsexualism, and recognize that you have both masculine and feminine traits.
* Although you may be mentally oriented, you are attracted to sensuality.
* You are a powerful, transformative individual. You realize that in order to bring positive change in our outer world, an idea must first be born within.
Your Chakra Colors and What They Do
Adapted from The Chakras in Shamanic Practice, by Susan J. Wright (Inner Traditions, 2007).
For millennia, eight colors have been thought to correspond to energy centers in the body. Wearing or surrounding yourself with these colors leads to balance and inner healing. For example, if you want to open your heart, there is a color that corresponds to the heart that will help. If you need to speak your truth to someone, you can wear a throat-chakra-colored scarf for encouragement. Find out about the chakra colors and what they do.
Red – First chakra, base of the spine. Groundedness, trust, belonging, lessens feelings of mistrust.
Orange – Second chakra, belly just below the navel. Sensuality, emotion, creativity, lessens feelings of inferiority.
Yellow – Third chakra, solar plexus. Will, identity, commitment, lessens feelings of confusion.
Green – Fourth chakra, heart. Compassion, forgiveness, intimacy, lessens feelings of isolation.
Blue – Fifth chakra, throat. Expression, communication, power to manifest, generativity, lessens feelings of stagnation.
Indigo – Sixth chakra, third eye, between the eyes. Clear sight, intuition, integrity, lessens feelings of despair.
Violet – Seventh chakra, crown, top of the head. Spiritual connection, mastery, lessens feelings of distraction.
White – Eighth chakra, just above the head. Radiance, expansion, lessens feelings of limiting attachment.
Mojo Rising Medicine Bundle
Adapted from Plant Spirit Shamanism, by Ross Heaven and Howard G. Charing (Inner Traditions, 2006).
Focusing our intention can help us to get what we need. This ancient shamanic technique uses the spirit power of plants aligned with your own desire to make a simple bundle that you carry with you. It’s like a spiritual radio, transmitting its energy and your requests to the universe and receiving the blessings that the spirits send back. Here is how to make a mojo bag to attract what you need.
Before you create a mojo bag, be clear on your intention, what you want the charm to do. Holding this intention in mind, take a walk in nature and allow yourself to be drawn to the plants that reflect your purpose. Spend a little time with them and speak to them of your needs. Request that they offer a little of themselves to help you.
The creator has given us clues to the healing and spiritual power of plants by ensuring that their outward appearances reflect their uses and intentions. Thus, the seed pods of the honesty plant, dried and relieved of their outer skins, are shining, translucent, and silver, round like coins and round like haloes. They can therefore be used to attract spiritual blessings and truth (honesty) or to draw in wealth, according to your intent.
When you take your plant materials home, dry them and then gently crush them. Mix them with a little rum, Florida Water, or essential oil and allow them to dry again.
Choose a piece of fabric in a color that corresponds to the qualities you wish to draw into your life. Colors are have traditional associations with certain energies: red with power and energy, pink with love, green for abundance, blue for peace, white for purity, and so on.
Place your plant material in the center of the fabric. You may add other objects to help: for more money, for example, add a few small coins on the homeopathic principle of like attracting like; a magnet to pull in success; a rose quartz for love, and so on. You can also write out your intention on a piece of paper and include it if you wish.
Sew up the bag or tie the bundle with a ribbon to keep the materials in place. Then smudge it with sage smoke and sprinkle it with a little Florida Water or essential oil. Carry your mojo bag with you.
Opening to Your Soul’s Inner Vision
Inspired by Power of the Soul, by John Holland (Hay House, 2007).
Clairvoyance is the inner sense of seeing. It’s when you receive information in the form of images, symbols and colors. The soul never speaks without a picture, according to psychic medium John Holland. This exercise of his trains your clairvoyant eye, so you will better see your soul’s messages to you, in pictures.
You’ll need a beeswax candle and a comfortable place to sit.
Sit comfortably with the burning candle in front of you. Relax your eyes and stare into the flame.
Once your eyes start to water, close them and put the palms of your hands over your eyes to create a total blackout. You should soon start seeing the flame, flickering slightly above and between your brows.
Keep your “eye” on the flame until it disappears. Repeat for another 10-15 minutes.
The exercise teaches you where you will see the vision in your third eye.
The next time you want a vision of what to do, focus on this area of your third eye. Ask your question and wait until you get a response, whether it was a symbol, a word, a color, a person, or even an object.
Daily Feng Shui Tip for May 29th
As a maven of luck and foreteller of fortunes it’s fitting that I share this next fact about the merry month of May. According to ancient traditions, May was once thought to be an unlucky month. Somewhat supportive of this theory is the old rhyme that says: ‘Marry in May and rue the day.’ And while June is traditionally the month for marriage, what would happen if you jump the gun and marry in May? Do you end up shooting yourself in the proverbial foot? And if that’s the case, what’s a May wedding couple to do? But don’t worry if you or someone you know is planning on a May wedding — all the happy couple needs is a little Wedding Day Shui! They can take two champagne flutes and tie either nine or eighteen inches of red thread, ribbon or string around the stems. They would then visualize filling themselves with the golden light of good intention while tying the stems of the two glasses together, leaving a few inches of red string between each flute. You can even perform this secret ceremony for them. Hold the visual of the couple living happily ever after while additionally bathing them in waves of protective and lucky golden light. Place this energizer into the Romance area of the bride-to-be’s bedroom and leave it there for at least nine days prior to the wedding day. As quickly as you can say ‘cheers,’ the sparkling energies created by this cure will bring bubbly days and fizzy, sizzling nights to the happy and harmonious newlyweds, no matter what month they marry! I hope you trust that this tip will work. I know I do!

Fast Facts
About the Number 1
Theme: Masculine, Creative, Independent, Aggressive
Astro Association: Mercury
Tarot Association: MagicianToday’s I Ching Hexagram for May 29th is 41: Decrease
41: Decrease
General Meaning: Increase and decrease are part of the natural cycle of life. As spiritual author long ago put it, ‘To every thing there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.’ Like a reservoir that is being used to irrigate the fields, learning to accept a decrease in position or material possessions is part of preparing for increase in the future.
We may live in materialistic times, but there is no disgrace in material decrease, particularly if it represents an investment in future gain — even if that gain be in the form of one’s education or the development of personal character. Likewise, the inner strength that comes from bearing loss can be balanced by a corresponding increase in inner strength and insight — as in the expression ‘what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.’ When letting go of attachment and personal demands leads to a greater simplicity in daily life, good fortune often comes calling.
In nature, the lake evaporates to form the clouds that drop the rain that nurtures the surrounding forest. As the forest grows thick, more rain is captured for the lake. Similarly, an ‘evaporation’ or decrease in one area of your life, may give rise to an eventual increase in another. A loss of responsibility at work can mean more free time; more free time may generate more career options. A period of decrease is not necessarily a bad thing; in fact, it can free the spirit and fill the soul.
Be mindful of the lesson of young lovers: even with a minimum of possessions, feelings of the heart can bring an unsurpassed richness to life. The smallest of actions, if sincere, have value. So remain confident, for a time of decrease may actually bode good fortune, especially if you remain open to that possibility.
Let go of frustration, resistance and regret over whatever may be going down at this time. Accept the cycle, and remember what goes down must come up.
Today’s Rune for Tuesday, May 29th is Inguz
 |
Jade Runes are most commonly used for questions about love, friendship, and relationships. Inguz is the rune of completion and fertility. The presence of this rune suggests that tasks which have been initiated will come to fruition. This rune is associated with Ing and Frey, it is this connection that explains its connotations of both fertility and sexuality. The variant of this rune shown here is reminiscent of the twin strands of life, and of the challenge and rewards of bringing together things complimentary. |
Today’s Tarot Card for May 29th is The Anchoret
The Anchoret
This Tarot Deck: Cagliostro
General Meaning:The challenge of what has traditionally been known as the Hermit card is to be able to recognize a teacher in a humble disguise. This font of mysterious knowledge will not make it easy for the student to acquire his wisdom, as it takes time and long contemplation to fathom what he knows. He often speaks wordlessly, or in ancient and barbaric tongues, communicating with the elements, animals and Nature herself.While the hourglass was an identifying feature on the earliest Hermit cards, more modern ones have shifted the metaphor, showing more or less light released from his lantern. In either case, the Hermit card reminds us of the value of time away from the hubbub of civic life, to relax the ego in communion with Nature.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, May 29th
Aries
Jupiter, planet of luck and expansion is on his own in your income sector and due to leave in just 2 weeks time, he won’t be back for another 12 years. Even the Moon has made his last visit and with all your cards on the table it’s time to bring things home. It’s the Moon’s position in your work sector today that is sharpening your instincts, allowing you to put your income and work objectives on the same page.
Taurus
When the Sun and Mercury left your sign last week, as well as wrapping up your birthday month they left Jupiter, planet of luck and expansion on his own. With Jupiter due to leave your sign in just 2 weeks time and not to return for another 12 years, today marks the start of the 14 day wind down of your Jupiter return. It’s now that you’re laying down the foundations for the next 12 years, with a need to keep your expectations for the future high.
Gemini
With the main thrust of your professional year underway there is a real call to pull back. While new doors will open on the work front in the second half of the year and the busiest months of the year are still in front of you, you’ve reached a point where having the right work/life balance is more important than anything else. With this comes a need to spend time revisiting the professional dreams and aspirations you came into the year with.
Cancer
It’s where you feel that you’re having to put on a face or go along to social engagements because you have to, that you need a bit of a wakeup call. As tempting as it might be to issue a rain check or come up with some kind of excuse, trust that this is as important for you as it is for anyone else. Instead of thinking that you can’t let others down, think about not letting yourself down, for this is an important day for both networking and connecting.
Leo
The Moon is making his last visit to your income sector before Jupiter leaves your career sector in just 14 days time, giving you a chance to not only sharpen your nose for money but to hook into your warrior spirit. This is the Moon’s first visit to your income sector since Mars cleared his final roadblocks and with his drives and passions now unfettered, you have a chance to breakthrough any remaining glass ceilings.
Virgo
The Moon and Mars align in your sign today, evoking your passions and bringing some strong emotional responses. At a time when things are heating up on the professional front, but also Neptune is slowing down ahead of a retrograde turn in your relationship sector next week, this is going to stir your personal and professional passions. All of a sudden you’re waking up to the fact that if you don’t like something you can change it.
Libra
Mars, planet of passion, drive and ambition will normally spend 6 weeks in an intuitive part of your chart, giving you a chance to slow down and recharge your batteries, before returning to your sign and opening the door to new quests. But Mars has already been here for 6 ½ months and won’t return to your sign until early July, with signs of frustration starting to show. Ease that frustration by exploring the kind of quests that excite your passions.
Scorpio
As financially focused as things are right now, it’s on the personal front that a new sense of urgency is setting your priorities. With Neptune turning retrograde in your romantic sector in a week from today and Jupiter leaving your relationship sector in 2 weeks from today, both not only need your attention but for you to focus on the future. It’s by knowing what you want from love and from your relationships that you’re less likely to lose your way.
Sagittarius
As the Moon and Mars align in your career sector this puts your professional instincts and passions on the same page, just 14 days before Jupiter, planet of luck and expansion is due to leave your work sector. This gives you the motivation to make the next 2 weeks count and with the relationship focus due to expand dramatically over that time, this brings a need to create some clear boundaries.
Capricorn
As professionally focused as things are right now they’re going to become even more professionally focused, with even more stunning developments on the work front over the coming weeks. This makes it important to hold back, holding onto a passion for adventure and discovery and a sense of curiosity. You’ll get a lot done if you have your head down and your tail up, but you’ll lose your sense of vision if you do this 24/7.
Aquarius
As the Moon and Mars align in your financial sector today expect your financial instincts and passions to fuse, igniting your fighting spirit but not the financial tensions of previous months. This is the Moon’s first visit to your financial sector since tensions between your income and financial sectors eased back, giving you a chance that time really has moved on. Instead of using your fighting spirit to fight challenges, use it to chase opportunities.
Pisces
As the Moon not only makes his first visit to your relationship sector since personal and relationship tensions eased, but aligns with passionate Mars energy, this gives you a chance to identify what you need to be fighting for or against. The Moon will only make one more visit to your relationship sector before Mars, planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos leaves in early July, with his visit today all about evoking your passions and getting you involved.
Your Weekly General Horoscopes for May 29th
Aries
With Jupiter on his own in your income sector but getting ready to leave in a few weeks time, this is a week for consolidating things on the income front, cementing your expectations and beginning the process of walking the talk. This comes just as Mars is about to move into his last full month in your work sector, with a visit from the Moon from Monday to Wednesday sharpening your instincts and evoking the kind of emotional responses that will get your passions moving. Meanwhile, although Jupiter is still another 2 weeks away from your communication sector there is something special developing there, with the communication lines now running in all directions. This is having the most impact on the relationship front, where the door is open to second chances and making up for lost time.
Taurus
The Sun and Mercury both left your sign last week, wrapping up your birthday month and setting your new solar year on the course you want it to continue on. Yet with Jupiter still here the much bigger job of laying down the foundations for a Jupiter cycle of expansion that won’t run its course until 2023 is still under way, although due to leave on the 12th June this has become a lot more urgent. Already the focus is shifting to your income situation, which is fast becoming the biggest game in town. Jupiter will return to your income sector on the 12th June, kicking off the most expansive year in over a decade for both income matters and for expanding your expectations across all the currencies in your life, but already the door is open to both new opportunities and second chances.
Gemini
After a solar eclipse in your sign last week and a lunar eclipse in your relationship sector next week, a week off from the intensity eclipses bring is just what you need. While the Sun returned to your sign and kicked off one of your most important solar years in a decade last Monday and Mercury returned last Thursday this is the first, last and only full week that they’ll spend here together. You begin the week with the Sun and Mercury aligned in your sign, giving you the clarity and intellectual savvy to take your power back and start making informed choices and decisions. It’s Mercury’s alignment with Venus over the weekend that not only puts heart and mind on the same page but the past and future as well, a time when the door is open to both new opportunities and second chances.
Cancer
More and more there is a need and a desire to pull back, for you’re not only now in the wind down period of your current solar year, a time when there is a need to review and look back over the year that has been, but heart and mind are also in need of respite. If life has been hectic, then this gives you a chance to step back, though any thoughts of being able to retreat to your cave and stay there will soon be discarded. With Jupiter now in his final weeks in your sector of friendship, teamwork and networking and Mars coming into his own in your communication sector, the need and the call to connect is just too strong and too important to isolate yourself completely. However, you do need time to stop, recharge your batteries and hear yourself think, so set some clear boundaries.
Leo
Already the professional focus that over previous months has been all consuming, is starting to wane, especially after the Sun and Mercury’s departure from your career sector last week. Even Jupiter, here since June 2011, is getting ready to leave and in just 2 weeks from Wednesday you’ll be left with no planetary activity in your career sector, something you haven’t experienced since April 2011. With Pluto staying on in your work sector there is no danger of losing your professional momentum anytime soon, though the focus is shifting more to your income situation, where your fighting spirit is starting to emerge. Where all the energy that was focused on your professional game is shifting to is social, personal and professional networking.
Virgo
The only thing that is stopping your life from becoming professionally dominated is Jupiter, who won’t return to your career sector until 2 weeks from Tuesday. However, with the Sun and Mercury not only spending their first, last and only full week together in your career sector, but moving into the week aligned and Mercury aligning with Venus here over the weekend, this is still going to be a professionally dominated week. But with Jupiter still in an adventurous part of your chart there is a reluctance to fully throw yourself into your professional game, with a chance instead to keep your options open. With Mars igniting your personal passions, chances are you’re looking for a new quest to get excited about or at least an unwillingness to engage in anything that doesn’t excite you.
Libra
Give yourself a week off this week, either literally or metaphorically and embrace a sense of adventure. With things slowing down on the work front ahead of Neptune’s retrograde turn in your work sector next week and Chiron’s the week after and Mercury not returning to your career front until next week, regardless of the conditions in play this week this was always going to be a week for taking your professional hat off as much as possible. However, it just so happens that the Sun and Mercury are spending their first, last and only full week of the year together in your sector of travel, adventure, learning and discovery and that a desire for adventure and richer experiences finally has something concrete to latch onto. Life is too short for simply going through the motions.
Scorpio
After a solar eclipse in your financial sector last week and a lunar eclipse in your income sector next week, regardless of what the stars are up to this week this was always going to be a week where money matters were likely to dominate. This is doubly so with Mercury spending his first, last and only full week in your financial sector, giving you both a smart head for money and a chance to tap into the forces that are opening new doors and those that hold the door open to second chances. Until next Monday’s lunar eclipse the focus is on your financial situation as a whole though. Yet as much as this is a week where money matters may dominate, this is also an important week on the relationship and romantic fronts, with a reminder that there are some things in life that money can’t buy.
Sagittarius
Next Monday’s lunar eclipse in your sign will bring you to a fairly dramatic turning point in your solar year, marking the halfway point where you have a chance to look back at where you’ve been and forward to where you’ve gone. In the lead up to this, in what is an important and busy week on the relationship, work and career fronts, it’s more important than ever that you remain true to yourself. What you will find, especially the closer to next Monday’s lunar eclipse, is that this is being tested and that there are likely to be plenty of situations where standing up for or being true to yourself might mean rocking the boat. Yet this gives you a chance to come up against the very blocks that stopped you from being true to yourself in the past, this time with the support to push through.
Capricorn
It’s hard to imagine a more professionally focused week, except I don’t need to imagine because I know things are set to become even more professionally focused over the coming weeks. You begin the week with the Sun and Mercury aligned in your work sector and over the weekend Mercury will be the first planet to align with Venus since she arrived in early April. This is Mercury’s first, last and only full week in your work sector, with his intellectual savvy the clue that holds everything together. This comes just as the Moon’s last visit to your career sector while Saturn is in retrograde motion for another 30 years sharpens your professional instincts and hindsight. Yet playful Jupiter vibes and Mars’ passion for adventure won’t let you get away with life becoming all work and no play.
Aquarius
Mercury’s return to your work sector next week will open the door to the first planetary activity in either of your professional houses since November 2011. While it will be good to finally find your professional groove and get your professional year up to speed, it’s also important to make the most of one of the last weeks between now and mid 2015 that you can take your professional hat. For once the tide turns there’ll be no going back. Yet it’s where forces are now gathering in a playful, creative and romantic part of your chart that instead of dying down and giving over to busy work forces, will only get stronger over the coming months. The message coming through loud and clear from the stars this week is that finding and maintaining a balance between work and play is a must.
Pisces
Despite the fact that you begin the week with the Moon in your work sector and you have a lunar eclipse in your career sector next week, this is a week where the majority of the focus is on home and family matters and on your relationships. After a solar eclipse in your home and family sector last Monday the Sun is settling into his month long visit with a lot less fanfare than it started with and with lucky Jupiter returning in 2 weeks from Tuesday, this is becoming an increasingly important area of your life. With Mercury, planet of communication spending his first, last and only full week in your home and family sector, communication is essential, not only on the home front but on the relationship front as well, where things are finally catching their second wind.
Your Weekly Pet Horoscopes for May 29th
Aries
While I’ve always been in love with the sound of my own voice, I’m taking this to a whole new level this week. I’ll be making sounds just because I can, but also to get your attention. Let’s face it, I love to have my ego stroked and if making a noise gets me more attention then I’ll be right into it. The only problem is that I’m not particularly smart about this, so only reward me when it’s deserved.
Taurus
When my birthday month came to an end last week I began another year of going around the block again, except that for me the aging process is accelerated. As I get older my health needs change and I need you to keep up with them. Whether it’s by going on line or talking to my vet, find out what I need as I age. I want to be around for a long time, but I also want to keep healthy and agile.
Gemini
With my birthday month now well underway, it’s time to look at how we’re going to celebrate. I won’t say no to a new toy or some treats, but what I really need are those annual updates that are easier to remember at this time of year and that you’re making a commitment to my future. I can’t make the new resolutions that you might make when you have your birthday, so I need you to make them for me.
Cancer
If I had my way I’d be turning into a bit of a sloth, moving when I want to, which chances are isn’t that much. This is a changeable time of year as far as the seasons go, but while the environment might change what I’ll be seeking won’t. When it’s hot expect to find me lounging in the shade while seeking out the warmest spot to laze away some happy hours when it gets cold outside.
Leo
So long as I’m in the thick of things and I can see what’s going on, then I’ll be happy. I’ll have a healthy sense of curiosity for anyone that comes to the door, comes over to visit and if there’s not a lot happening at my place, I’ll be looking over or through the fence to see what the neighbours are up to. I’m not exactly nosey, just interested in all the facets of life going on around me and all those interesting smells.
Virgo
Any chance I get this week to impress or show off and I’ll be in seventh heaven, with a competitive streak running right down my back. If there are other pets in the house expect me to be first to the food, not because I’m hungry but because I want to win. This is a good time to teach me some new tricks, especially those that involve treats when I get it right or lots of ‘atta girls’ or ‘atta boys’.
Libra
I’ve had a bit of wanderlust pumping through my system for some time now, but rather than wearing off it seems that it’s here to stay. Chances are a sense of curiosity that goes with this may also be getting me into a bit of trouble, as I try and explore all the nooks and crannies I can manage to squeeze myself into. At least you won’t have to spend too much time entertaining me, as I’m more than capable of entertaining myself.
Scorpio
While I might be a creature of habit by nature, liking things to stay the same, I’m becoming a lot more open to change and no longer as fearful of new things as I once was. If you’ve tried to introduce me to new things in the past and I turned my nose up at it, then try again as I might be more receptive this time around. Though don’t take it too far, as there are some things I won’t compromise on.
Sagittarius
Just like you, I get bored of the same old same old, day after day and I’m just as much in need of variety as you are. It’s balance that will keep me happy, so mix and match things up a little for me. This would be a good time to introduce new tastes to my diet, though go for smaller sizes first. And just like you movement and keeping agile is important for me as I age, but for me exercise means having a chance to play.
Capricorn
As the focus shifts more and more to my health needs, it’s important to remember that as well as the right food, the right vaccinations and treatments I need, that I also need to have fun. If you’re looking at all my other health needs and not seeing running around and having fun as part of that package, then you’ll miss the most important part. I not only need to keep agile, but having fun has all sorts of health benefits for me.
Aquarius
While it will soon be time to start looking more closely at my health needs, that time won’t come until next week. However, there is nothing to say that you can’t get a jump start on this or that you can’t start taking some shortcuts. I’m in a mood this week for having fun and I want and need lots of playtime. It just so happens that running around and having fun is one of the best things for my health and for our bonding.
Pisces
I am fast becoming a real homebody, not only liking my routines but loving being right in the middle of family life, with the more you include me the better. This is not because I’m feeling anxious or because I need reassurance, just that it’s something that I’ll enjoy. So much so that I’m likely to be a barometer for everything that is happening in the home, for if there is something out of kilter I’ll feel it and you’ll know about it.
Your Career Horoscopes for the Week of May 29th
Aries
Things become more serious for Mars this week, for while he’s been in your work sector since last November, his longest visit in 47 years, it’s time to bring things home. While Mars won’t leave your work sector until early July, the Moon’s visit from Monday to Wednesday comes just as he’s ready to move into his last full month and just as you’ve cleared any roadblocks. After many ups and downs and false starts it’s time to put the pedal to the metal and go for it. For a planet that usually spends just 6 weeks in your work sector at a time, the 6 ½ months he’s already put in has given you the experience and the savvy to bring things home. As the Moon sharpens your instincts this will help you to pick your battles wisely, ensuring that your time and energy is going into the right places.
Taurus
Since Saturn returned to your work sector in October 2009 the Moon’s monthly visits have helped you to keep track, giving you an intuitive read on the ever changing conditions. Saturn’s current retrograde phase in your work sector is the third in as many years and when the Moon returns to your work sector on Wednesday and aligns with Saturn on Friday, it will be for the sixth time this year and the fifth time while Saturn is in retrograde motion. This should be a run of the mill encounter then, but it is anything but, for it’s the last time that the Moon and Saturn will align in your work sector, while the door to the past is still open for another 30 years. Keeping your finger on the pulse and your ear to the ground is a must, especially when it comes to what hindsight is telling you.
Gemini
Things are finally slowing down on the professional front, not because you’re running out of steam. You’re nearing a point where you’re able to work with what is already on the table, before new doors start opening on the work front in August. Considering that when they do open that they’ll remain open until mid 2015, taking things slowly while you can is a real necessity. Things are slowing down because Neptune and Chiron, the only two planets active in either of your professional houses, are coming to a standstill and are in their final days in direct motion. Neptune will turn retrograde next Tuesday and Chiron a week later, with a need to avoid rushing or pushing things. The Moon’s return to your work sector over the weekend will give you a chance to pick up on some valuable clues.
Cancer
As you move into the new week you’re just 7 days away from a lunar eclipse in your work sector, an eclipse that because the Moon will only return on the same day is likely to catch you by surprise. However that shouldn’t be the case if you’re paying attention, for while eclipses are wild cards and bring things to a head or to a turning or tipping point, if you’re paying attention the clues are there before hand. This makes it important to have your finger on the pulse and your ear to the ground, but also to avoid over thinking, for it’s more about being aware of what is actually happening and where things actually stand than looking back or projecting forward. This means paying attention and finding a balance between not sweating the small stuff and keeping your head out of the sand.
Leo
After first the Sun and then Mercury left your career sector last week Jupiter is back to being on his own, as it has been for the majority of the time since the planet of luck returned last June. Yet what has been a 12 month mission to bring your professional game up to speed, to point your professional goals and ambitions in the right direction and to invest all that you can into your professional game is now coming to an end. Jupiter will leave your career sector in 2 weeks from Tuesday, after which point there’ll be no more planetary activity in your career sector until April 2013. With all your cards now on the table and the confidence of knowing that you have the right amount of stamina and stickability on the work front, it’s now more about positioning yourself for future success.
Virgo
Each week conditions deepen on the career front, with last week’s solar eclipse in your career sector, along with the Sun and Mercury’s return topped this week by the consolidation taking place. However, you’re still on your way up with events next week literally eclipsing events until now and the week after that going a step further. This is still early days in a professional comeback that within the next few weeks will reveal just how many options you have. In the meantime you begin the week with the Sun and Mercury aligned in your career sector and over the weekend Mercury and Venus will align. With Venus in retrograde motion and the Sun and Mercury in direct motion, this is the start of a coming together of forces, giving you a clearer sense of where you’ve been and where you’re going.
Libra
Things are slowing down on the professional front, to a point where you could even take time off or simply glide, which could be just what you need. Yet if there is any fear that this is the start of a slump, rest assured it’s not and this is in fact one of the only real weeks you’ll get for some time when you can actually catch your breath. Neptune and Chiron, the only planets currently active in either of your professional houses, are slowing down, with Neptune turning retrograde in your work sector next Tuesday and Chiron a week later. Even if you wanted to, this is not the time to push things. With Mercury returning to your career sector next week and opening the door to the most active 3 career months of the year, taking the time this week to catch your breath is a must.
Scorpio
Any week that begins with the Moon in your career sector has to be a good one, ensuring that you’re off to the best possible start, with your professional instincts sharp and engaged and with your finger on the pulse and your ear to the ground. While the Moon will leave on Monday after spending the weekend in your career sector, you’ve had a chance to get your bearings and away from the coalface to listen to what your instincts, hunches and imagination have been telling you. By this time next month you’ll have the first planetary activity in your career sector for the year, so this gives you a chance to start lining up at doors before they’ve even opened or before they’re even there. Move into the week trusting and following your hunches and keep it that way.
Sagittarius
On both the work and career fronts there is a real call to action this week and a sense that it’s time to bring things home. After the Sun and Mercury both left your work sector last week, leaving you with the objectivity and intellectual savvy to play your A game, this left Jupiter on his own and due to leave in 2 weeks from Tuesday, it really is time to bring things home, putting things on the track that you want them to continue on. It’s the Moon’s return to your career sector on Monday and position here until Wednesday that will sharpen your professional instincts and evoke both your emotional responses and your fighting spirit. This comes just as Mars is getting ready to move into his last full month in your career sector. It’s time to pull out all the stops.
Capricorn
Conditions on the work and career fronts couldn’t be more different, with Saturn on his own and in retrograde motion in your career sector, while on the work front the door is open to both new opportunities and second chances. Yet it’s the unity between these two areas of your chart that creates a complimentary set of circumstances, creating a new level of professional confidence as you wake up to how many options you have. The Moon’s return to your career sector on Wednesday will sharpen your professional instincts, with his alignment with Saturn on Friday giving you a chance to delve deep into the past. This is the Moon’s last alignment with Saturn while he’s in retrograde motion for another 30 years, so the sense of hindsight you’re able to tap into will be too important to ignore.
Aquarius
You have had no planetary activity in either of your professional houses all year and other than a Full Moon in your career sector on the 6th May, nothing but the Moon’s monthly visits to your work and career sectors to keep things on track. That’s about to change and this is one of the last weeks for a while that you’ll have a chance to take your professional hat off and keep it off. For with Mercury returning to your work sector next week, kicking off the 3 most active months of the year on the work front and an active 3 years on the career front kicking in during that time, things are about to get busy. The Moon’s return to your career sector over the weekend, coming full circle from the Full Moon on the 6th May, will give you one last chance to get your bearings before new doors open.
Pisces
At the start of the week your focus needs to be on all things work, job and employment related, for you’re moving into the week with the Moon in your work sector. While the Moon will leave on Monday, having spent the weekend here this allows you to move into the new week with your finger on the pulse and your ear to the ground and a wealth of insights, hunches and clues to draw on. While new doors won’t start opening on the work front until the 26th June, holding onto those clues and hunches is essential. By the weekend your attention needs to start shifting to your professional game as a whole, ahead of a lunar eclipse in your career sector next Monday that could catch you unprepared. While you can’t second guess a lunar eclipse, you can at least start paying attention.
Your Weekly Money & Finance Horoscopes for May 29th
Aries
After the Sun and Mercury left your income sector last week Jupiter is on his own and after a busy and intense few months on the income front, it’s time to bring things home. Your income sector has been continuously active since April 2011, which has put a lot of focus on your income situation and plenty of time to explore all your options. Yet it’s only been since June 2011 that Jupiter has been here, but due to leave in just 2 weeks from Tuesday it’s time to bring things home and to do whatever you need to, to ensure that you’re on the right track to achieve what you want in the future. The Moon’s return to your financial sector on Friday and position here over the weekend will sharpen your financial instincts, but also provide some timely wake up calls.
Taurus
You have a chance this week to get your bearings and to consolidate your position, especially on the income front. After a solar eclipse in your income sector last Monday and a lunar eclipse in your financial sector next Monday, there is no doubt that there are intense money times, but also a time when you’re able to finally get things moving. For the first time since Venus returned to your income sector on the 4th April she has company, after both the Sun and Mercury returned last week. There is a real sense that things are coming together on the income front, with the Sun and Mercury aligning on Monday and Venus and Mercury over the weekend, putting all your available cards on the table. However, this is still early days, with a need to keep your mind, eyes and expectations open.
Gemini
With Mercury returning to your income sector next week, this is the final week where your sole focus is on your financial situation as a whole. June is expected to be a fairly intense money month, especially on the financial front as a whole with Pluto, in retrograde motion in your financial sector feeling the heat from two different angles. One of those angles will be Mercury’s return to your income sector and the pressure this will put on Pluto, giving you both a smart head for money but also bringing some timely wake up calls. This makes this an important week for focusing on your financial situation and money matters as a whole, refusing to stick your head in the sand or sweeping things under the carpet, without sweating the small stuff or creating challenges where there are none.
Cancer
As you move into the new week the Moon is wrapping up his monthly visit to your income sector, allowing you to move into the new week with a nose for money and having had spent time over the weekend getting your bearings. Hold onto the clues and hunches this leaves you with, for by this time next month the 3 most active months on the income front for the year will be underway and what you’re just getting hints of now will be a lot more tangible. It’s too early to anticipate what lies ahead, but you can be confident that the money gods are already working to make the period from the 26th June to the 3rd October the most lucrative months of the year. Until then hold onto both the clues and the nose for money that you move into the week with, slowly steering things in the right direction.
Leo
Things have settled right back on the money front and forces on the financial and income fronts are still in play they are no longer in conflict, with the challenges and financial tension of recent weeks and months easing right back. With Neptune spending his last full week in direct motion in your financial sector, before turning retrograde in a week from Tuesday and Chiron turning retrograde a week later, things on the financial front as a whole are taking a more background role. This allows income forces to come to the fore, with the Moon’s return to your income sector on Monday and alignment with Mars on Tuesday giving you a nose for money and igniting your fighting spirit. With Mars leaving your income sector on the 4th July, it’s time to come out of your corner fighting.
Virgo
The Moon makes an important visit to your income sector this week, his last before Saturn turns direct. You’ve had some real up and down times on the money front, with forces on the financial and income fronts in opposition over recent months, but you have already moved on from that and there is a chance now to consolidate your position, especially on the income front. While there may be some financial matters to address over the coming week, as far as this week is concerned it’s your income situation that needs your attention. With growing support from a planetary line up in your career sector, the Moon’s last encounter with Saturn, while in retrograde motion in your income sector, gives you both a nose for money and a chance to recognise where there are old stones still unturned.
Libra
When the Sun and Mercury left your financial sector last week they left you with a lot of financial objectivity and a smart head for money, but they also left behind Jupiter, now on a mission to bring things up to speed. Having been in your financial sector since June 2011, Jupiter will leave your financial sector in 2 weeks from Tuesday and not due to return until 2023, it’s what you’re able to invest now into your financial situation and your financial game that will determine much of your financial reality over the coming week, months and years. This isn’t about having the end results in your hands, rather all about putting your financial game on the course that you want it to continue on. There’ll be time to focus on your income situation in the second half of the year.
Scorpio
With a solar eclipse in your financial sector last Monday and a lunar eclipse in your income sector next Monday the money gods are active in your chart, with a chance this week to step back from the intensity that eclipse energy creates. This comes just as the Sun and Mercury not only spend their first full week in your financial sector but begin the week already aligned, allowing you to move into the new week with not only some clear financial objectives and a smart head for money, but on the same page. This is Mercury’s first, last and only full week in your financial sector, with his alignment with the Sun at the start of the week and with Venus over the weekend giving you a chance to get your head around all things financial, ahead of next Monday’s lunar eclipse in your income sector.
Sagittarius
You have one more week before things start to get more complicated on the money front, with a chance this week to focus on income matters, leaving money matters as a whole until next week. This doesn’t mean sweeping things under the carpet or sticking your head in the sand, just that with Mercury returning to your financial sector next week, bringing with him a smart head for money, that if you don’t need to make financial choices, decisions and plans now then you’re best to wait. In the meantime, this gives you a chance to make the most of the last week for sometime where Pluto, in retrograde motion in your income sector, is the only planet active in either of your money houses, with an important week on the work and career fronts giving you a chance to cement your income objectives.
Capricorn
You’re moving into the week with the Moon still in your financial sector, having spent the weekend sharpening your financial instincts and providing clues and hunches. While the Moon will leave on Monday, simply starting the week with your financial instincts sharp, your finger on the pulse and your ear to the ground gives you an advantage you’ll retain for as long as you choose not to over think things. This is one of the Moon’s last visits to your financial sector before the first planetary activity kicks off on the 26th June, with a chance to both get your bearings and start pointing things in the right direction. Hold onto the hunches and clues you move into the week with, even those you don’t want to hear. Don’t sweat the small stuff, but don’t stick your head in the sand either.
Aquarius
The Moon makes a timely visit to your financial sector this week, sharpening your financial instincts and giving you a chance to put things into perspective. The Moon’s alignment with fiery Mars on Tuesday might push some buttons, bringing a potent mix of emotional and passionate responses. For on the same day that the Moon aligns with Mars, creating some real financial motivation and some strong reactions, this also puts pressure on Neptune, a week to the day before the planet of dreams is due to turn retrograde in your income sector. Yet this is short lived and with Neptune about to open the door to second chances on the income front and Mars ready to make his final month in your financial sector count, these are the right wake up calls at the right time.
Pisces
The Moon makes an important visit to your financial sector this week, making it important to keep your head out of the sand. The Moon will return to your financial sector on Wednesday and leave on Friday and as he does when he returns each month will sharpen your financial instincts and give you a chance to get your bearings. It’s not the Moon’s visit that is pivotal and more that this will be his last encounter with Saturn while he’s in retrograde motion in your financial sector, not for the year but for another 30 years. You’ve experienced this dozens of times over the last 3 years and even their alignment on Friday will be the fifth this year since Saturn turned retrograde. But as their last this is your final chance to really get to the bottom of old financial issues and matters.
Your Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 29th
Aries
Until now the love gods have put all their attention onto your relationships and especially when it comes to ensuring that the communication lines are open. But the Moon’s visit to your romantic sector over the last few days is likely to have stirred some discontent on the romantic front, with a sense of rebellion taking root.
Taurus
As the Moon and Mars align in your romantic sector a potent mix of emotion and romantic passion will make it hard to deny how you really feel. If the Moon is doing its job this will evoke your fighting spirit, for as you start to wake up to what you might be missing out on, your inner romantic warrior is likely to respond with a resounding ‘I don’t think so’!
Gemini
At the same time the countdown is on to next week’s lunar eclipse in your relationship sector, with a need to keep things out in the open, there is a growing sense of romantic nostalgia. It’s by letting your romantic desires and your heart dwell on the past, but at the same time keeping your relationships firmly focused on the future, that you’re able to create something special.
Cancer
As the Moon not only makes his monthly visit to your communication sector but aligns with fiery and passionate Mars energy, you’ll find it easier to speak out than it will be to hold your tongue, which is a good thing. Things will get a little bumpier on the relationship front next month, with the more you can clear the air now the better.
Leo
If love, your heart or your romantic resolve was never tested, you’d never know how strong it really was and would live in fear. Your heart is a lot more robust than you realise and in order to find or experience real love then you need to take your defences down. Making yourself vulnerable is scary, but your heart doesn’t need to be wrapped in cottonwool.
Virgo
Don’t over react to any relationship pressure or tension today, for it’s simply the Moon making his monthly visit to your sign and therefore moving into opposition with Neptune and Chiron in your relationship sector. This will happen every 4 weeks and is nothing more nor less than a chance to test the waters and make sure things aren’t being swept under the carpet.
Libra
After an active 3 months on the relationship front ran its course just under 3 weeks ago things have eased back, however they’ll never quite go off the boil. With Uranus, planet of surprise, synchronicity and the unexpected staying behind the love gods have your back, refusing to let things become bogged down again.
Scorpio
Both the Sun and Mercury left your relationship sector last week and with Jupiter himself leaving in 2 weeks time, it’s time to bring things home. The Moon has already made his last visit before this powerful relationship year comes to an end, so you already have all the answers and inside needed to put your relationships on the right path.
Sagittarius
At what is an important time on the relationship front the Moon is putting the focus on your professional game today and rightfully so. The relationship chapter that you’re now in will run through to mid 2013 and conditions will only get better, so you need to learn how to juggle your relationship with the real world. Start with having the right boundaries.
Capricorn
When the Sun and Mercury left your romantic sector they left Jupiter on his own and with the planet of luck and expansion not only the last planet here but due to leave himself in 2 weeks time, holding onto his romantic energy and focus is a must. At what is turning into one of the busiest times of the year, this is going to be easier said than done.
Aquarius
The Sun and Mercury only returned to your romantic sector last week, but it’s already clear that this is no ordinary visit. With last week’s solar eclipse having already opened new doors and Venus holding the door open to second chances, it’s clear that the love gods are on your side, with a need to believe in love and in what’s possible.
Pisces
Just as Mars, planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos is about to move into his final month in your relationship sector he aligns with the Moon today, bringing together a potent cocktail of emotion and passion. While things may get a little fiery on the relationship front, this will also create some real passion and steam.
Your Weekly Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 29th
Weekly Love Horoscopes (Updates on Monday) – 28 May 2012
Aries
After spending the weekend in your romantic sector the Moon allows you to move into the new week with an intuitive read on your heart and having had a chance to tap into a sense of romance, after so much focus on your relationships of late. But sadly the Moon must move on, but this has left you with a taste of things to come, for by this time next month the first planetary activity for the year will have kicked off and the most romantically charged 3 months of the year will have begun. Continue to focus on your relationships and especially on making sure that the communication lines are open, but also hold onto the spirit of romance evoked by the Moon’s visit and its hint of things to come. The love gods are cooking up something special.
Taurus
The Moon makes a timely visit to your romantic sector, returning on Monday and leaving on Wednesday, for the first time since pressure on Mars and your romantic sector eased less than 2 weeks ago. This comes just as Mars, planet of passion is getting ready to move into his final month in your romantic sector, but as his 8 month visit won’t end until the 4th July, the mix of emotion and passion will create some real steam and some motivation to make these final weeks count. This is Mars’ longest visit to your romantic sector in 47 years and after plenty of ups and downs, highs and lows and challenges thrown in, there are no longer any roadblocks. By this point you should know what you want from love and romantic passions can no longer be ignored.
Gemini
With Saturn in retrograde motion in your romantic sector and Venus in retrograde motion in your sign, there is not only a lot of focus on romance but on the past, with the door open to second chances and to an opportunity to take a trip down love’s memory lane. Yet while your relationships aren’t receiving nearly as much attention, they’ll get their come back during a lunar eclipse in your relationship sector next Monday, which may catch you off guard or by surprise. With the Moon not even returning to your relationship sector until the day of the eclipse there’ll be no lead up, making it important to keep things real and authentic this week, refusing to sweep things under the carpet. It’s the things that may fly under your radar this week that are most likely to come to a head.
Cancer
As you move into the new week it may appear that not a lot is happening on either the relationship or romantic front. Yet as the week progresses you’re likely to find that some relationship pressure is starting to build and unfortunately this is a sign of things to come, with June holding a few relationship tests and challenges. However, this will be nothing more than some timely wake up calls, making it important to keep the communication lines open, while refusing to sweep things under the carpet. In the meantime, there is some light relief over the weekend, with the Moon returning to your romantic sector on Friday, casting a romantic spell over the whole weekend. As the Moon comes full circle from a Full Moon on the 6th May, this gives you a sense of what didn’t make sense before.
Leo
As you move into the new week you’re just 7 days away from next Monday’s lunar eclipse in your romantic sector, which is destined to be a real eclipse of the heart with the power to bring things on the romantic front to a turning or tipping point. With the Moon not arriving until the day of the eclipse this might catch you off guard, making it important to pay attention to what your heart is telling you this week and also to take your hands off the wheel. With Venus, planet of love not only in a social and serendipitous part of your chart but in retrograde motion and the Sun and Mercury in direct motion, here the laws of attraction and synchronicity are in effect in both directions. This sets the scene for some serendipitous moments or encounters, where and when you least expect.
Virgo
With Pluto already in retrograde motion in your romantic sector and both Neptune and Chiron closing down in your relationship sector, it really is a case this week that you can’t hurry love. Neptune, planet of dreams will turn retrograde in a week from Tuesday and Chiron, planet of healing a week later. After some bruising relationship months, with lots of ups and downs and highs and lows, things are evening out now. In order to turn retrograde both Neptune and Chiron need to come to a standstill, very soon opening the door to second chances. This makes it important not to rush or push things, letting things run their natural course at the speed things are naturally taking. This makes communication even more important than ever, with a chance to really connect coming up over the weekend.
Libra
After being the only planet in an adventurous part of your chart for so long Venus, planet of love finally has company, with both the Sun and Mercury spending their first full week here. In retrograde motion Venus is not only asking you to see love as an adventure and a journey, she’s creating an opportunity to make up for lost time. It’s the Sun and Mercury’s focus on the future and for injecting a sense of adventure into your life in general, that all of a sudden simply going through the motions is no longer an option. It’s an alignment between Venus and Mercury over the weekend that gives you a chance to put heart and mind on the same page, opening both to a sense of adventure while giving you a chance to walk the talk. The door is open to new opportunities and second chances.
Scorpio
The Sun and Mercury’s departure from your relationship sector last week means Jupiter is on his own and due to leave in just 2 weeks from Tuesday, this is the beginning of the end. Your relationship sector has been continuously active since April 2011 and Jupiter has been here since June 2011, but not for much longer. It’s what you’re able to invest into your relationships now, whether it’s into your current relationship or if single a future relationship, that will determine what you get back over the coming months and years. This is far from the end of the story, but it is the end of a period aimed at getting the ball rolling. In the meantime, Neptune is spending his last full week in retrograde motion in your romantic sector, with the door opening to second chances next week.
Sagittarius
A lot of water has passed under the bridge since last Monday’s solar eclipse in your relationship sector, which occurred just hours after both the Sun and Mercury returned and may therefore have caught you off guard. As you move into the new week the Sun has been here for 7 days and Mercury, planet of communication has returned. Mercury is a big player on the relationship front this week, aligning with the Sun on Monday and Venus, planet of love over the weekend. Mercury himself is only here for a short time and this is his first, last and only full week here. As the Sun is shining the light on the future and Venus is opening the door to second chances, Mercury and his ability to open the communication lines is building bridges in both directions.
Capricorn
After both the Sun and Mercury left your romantic sector last week lucky Jupiter is back on his own and due to leave in just 2 weeks from Tuesday, a major push to get your love life and romantic situation up to speed is coming to an end. Yet over the past 12 months seeds of expectation have been planted and the feelings being sown in your heart will continue to influence your love life for months, if not years to come. With Mercury due to reach your relationship sector next week and your relationship focus due to take over from a romantic focus hold this at bay for as long as you can. From next week you can start to make it about your relationships as well, but for now fully embrace the spirit of romance while you still have lucky romantic forces on your side.
Aquarius
If this was an ordinary year when it comes to love, then the love gods would have already given you more than your fair share. After a solar eclipse in your romantic sector last Monday the doors are open to new opportunities at a time when the door is already open to second chances. With Mercury, planet of communication spending his first, last and only full week in your romantic sector, you even have the tools to give your heart a voice and with an alignment with the Sun on Monday and with Venus over the weekend, that voice extends out into the future and back into the past. You even had the Moon in your relationship sector over the weekend, where until he leaves on Monday he’ll be giving your relationships an update. Yet this is just a warm up, with something big pending.
Pisces
The Moon returns to your relationship sector on Monday and the timing couldn’t be better, for here until Wednesday this gives you a chance to tap into a mix of emotional responses and passions this evokes, just as Mars gets ready to move into his final month in your relationship sector. It’s time to start bringing things home and having returned in November, for his longest visit to your relationship sector in 47 years, Mars is done with the challenges, the ups and downs and the highs and lows and is ready to bring things home. Mars, planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos won’t leave your relationship sector until the 4th July, so there is plenty of time to work with whatever has come to a head over recent months, but also to put the past behind you and move on.
