Today’s I Ching Hexagram for September 21 is51: Shock

51: Shock

Hexagram 51

General Meaning:  One hears thunder unexpectedly! First comes fear, then a sharpening of one’s vision. Recall a close brush with danger — a falling branch, an automobile accident barely avoided, an escape from a potentially violent confrontation. Such incidents arouse every nerve fiber in your body in a brief wave of terror, but soon, once the danger has passed, give way to a heightened awareness of the world. The same process also occurs with other types of shock — the loss of a job, the sudden departure of a loved one, business failure and so on.

The lasting impact of a major shock can either be stimulating or debilitating, depending upon one’s strength of character. The critical factor is the ability to shake off fear, thereby transforming anxiety into a laser-sharp perception of the world around you.

When overtaken by crisis, the wise search their hearts for inner strengths in order to face their life with courage. This often means daring to take an unexpected path — to bounce back quickly and self-confidently after failures, to have faith in the eternal when confronted with death.

We tend to think of shock only in the context of unpleasant events. We can also be jarred, however, by the sudden release of tension that comes with unexpected joy or success. To keep your bearings in the aftershock of either trauma or victory, it is essential that your inner compass be aligned with ‘true north’, that magnetic force which guides you toward fulfillment of both your deepest desire, and your highest destiny.

Your Ancient Symbol Card for Sept. 21 is The Rose

Your Deck of Ancient Symbols Card for Today

The Rose

The White Rose indicates the need for or the presence of purity of intention. The question to ponder is, “Am I/he/she being self-serving, or other-directed?” The caution is that even if we are reasonably certain our motives are generous, if we are yet attempting to impose our idea of what should be, we are not acting at the level of the White Rose. When the White Rose appears, examine your own and others’ motives, and then trust the answer that brings you true peace of mind.

As a daily card, the Rose denotes a time in which you will be best served by allowing your actions to be guided by what is best for the greatest number even if the path indicated is not the one you feel is best for you.

Today’s Tarot Card for September 21 is The Emperor

The Emperor

 

This Tarot Deck: Tarot of the Witches

 

General Meaning:  In the most practical terms, what has traditionally been called the Emperor card represents the highest leadership, a head of state or the most exemplary and powerful person in the realm. This archetypal ruler is responsible for the positive working out of affairs of a society or community, which are directly proportional to his well being and happiness.

The more enlightenment and cosmic perspective this energy brings, the better life is for all. The Emperor archetype masters the world of matter and physical manifestation. When you apply this card to your situation, acknowledge your potentials for mastery. Reinforce a sense of sovereignty within yourself, despite any self-limiting beliefs, habits or appearances to the contrary.

Your Horoscopes for Friday, September 21

We may feel inspired to accomplish great things today, but we might end up wasting precious time vacillating between alternative options instead. The uplifting Sagittarius Moon inspires confidence and possibly even encourages unrealistic hope. Our big ideas are fueled by the Moon’s opposition to expansive Jupiter in restless Gemini, encouraging us to shoot our arrows into the sky like Sagittarius the Archer, even if we don’t yet know our target.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Emotional pressures ease now that the Moon is in fiery Sagittarius, increasing your desire to go out and do something to rev up the adrenaline in your system. Even if you have been taking care of yourself, the urge for excitement and adventure outweighs the need for safety today. Nevertheless, it’s important to demonstrate your intelligence by controlling your sudden impulses. A good idea will develop into a great one if you give it sufficient time and energy.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

A challenging issue may arise involving someone else’s property or something that you own jointly with a partner. You could feel as if others are trying to manipulate your feelings now or entice you with material temptations. Choose your battles carefully. Don’t even bother to engage in a fight if it isn’t critical. There will be time for an honest conversation once the energy settles down. Walking away may be the best way to avoid a bad scene today.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Someone could suggest an idea today that’s even more ambitious than yours. You might be eager to go for it, but fortunately your common sense could hold you back just enough to prevent you from attempting something too risky. Joking around about your current caution can effectively alleviate the impact of your negative response. Don’t get involved in a new project now unless you’re absolutely certain that it’s worth your effort.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You may have to do things for everyone else today, which makes it nearly impossible to find time to take care of your own needs. Your best strategy now is to start at the top of your list and just cross off one thing after another, even if it seems like someone else has set your priorities. Ultimately, you’re the one who stands to benefit the most if you stay focused and finish your chores. Get started right away so you have time to nurture your dreams later once your work is done.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It could be a carefree day where your toughest decision is deciding which party to attend, what time to leave for the beach, or who you should invite out to play. Although your penchant for pleasure might be overstated, there is plenty of room to create memorable experiences now. No matter how much work you have to do today, make time to luxuriate in the velvety richness of your own mental playground.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may be intrigued by the possibility of making a grand emotional gesture within your family or close group of friends. You feel magnanimous today and you want them to take notice of what you are doing to help out in these tense times. But assisting others for your own selfish reasons will not turn out well. Make sure your intentions are pure and you will be recognized accordingly for your generous contribution.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Some of your best ideas can be communicated with great ease today and you don’t even have to make a big deal of it. You have a clear vision now, along with the necessary facts to back it up. As long as you don’t confuse the two you can speak the truth straight from your heart. Maintaining a logical perspective goes a long way toward assuring your success.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might want to exaggerate your story today to bring more recognition to you or your favorite cause. However, if you let your feelings run the show, your plan may not work out as intended. You’re better off making a change in your tactics sooner than later. Rethink your strategy and tone down your rhetoric if necessary. A rational approach works wonders now.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Hold your arrows of thought as steady as you can and make sure that your eyes are solely on your target. Then and only then, release your intentions and let your dreams soar into space. No matter what happens, you have taken a positive step toward realizing your goals. Sharing your experience with someone you trust could turn your process into a memorable and magical moment.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Something that you are hiding from yourself or others may create problems today. You might be holding tension that stems from a feeling that you have kept private. However, there are no absolute rights or wrongs with respect to which emotions should be shared. Just remember that nothing can be gained if you’re not willing to take a chance.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your future is contained within your dreams and now it’s time to remember them more clearly than ever. But this isn’t about a new vision; it’s more likely about a familiar one that’s been lingering with you over the years. Dust off your old fantasies so you can explore them anew, even if your feelings about them are mixed. Don’t stiffen up with resistance or fear; instead, reclaim your flexibility and stretch into the uncertainty to see where your emotions lead.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

A widening gulf between your feelings and your actions may cause major complications today. You want to demonstrate your positive attitude to everyone at work, but you could come across as scattered if you take on too many tasks. Keep an open dialogue with your colleagues and listen closely to the feedback you receive. Their good advice can help you set healthy priorities, enabling you to better manage your time and resources.

Weekend Love Horoscopes for September 21 – 23

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

 by Jeff Jawer

Light and Dark

September 21 – 23

The weekend starts off on a high note, with Friday being the perfect time to let go of responsibilities, set aside reality, and go all out for a good time. The enthusiastic Sagittarius Moon awakens a taste for adventure and an appreciation for risk. Favorable lunar aspects to Astrology’s favorite planets, Jupiter and Venus, kick up the potential for fun. This is not the moment for serious discussions about relationships or about anything else for that matter. A humorous attitude and an interest in games make this a joyous day.

Saturday’s story is very different, starting with the Sun’s entry into artistic Libra, which is useful for restoring fairness in relationships and enhancing personal style. But the Moon’s move into serious Capricorn in the afternoon adds a small dose of competitiveness that can make it harder for some people to compromise.

The most potent astrological patterns occur very late on Saturday night and very early Sunday morning, with the Moon’s intense aspects to unruly Uranus and punchy Pluto putting an unexpected twist on social activities. Sudden changes of mood and feelings of suspicion could undercut trust. Holding on to the past is less likely to work than taking risks to turn partnerships in radical new directions. Stay flexible and open-minded to help break through tiring patterns and create new paths to partnership

 

Daily Cosmic Calendar for September 21

The difference between yesterday and today is enormous. The challenging aspects are no longer present or, at least, are greatly diminished in strength. Yes, the four Mercury aspects that swept through humanity on Thursday like some kind of alien invasion do exist, but they are somewhat under the astro-radar screen in terms of intensity.  In their place, Venus is making an inspirational, 72-degree link to old reliable Saturn (2:18AM PDT) while the Sun causes a few sparks to fly by squaring Ceres (8:24AM PDT). While the Venus-Saturn rapport can bring a measure of success on the business front — via your slow and steady approach — the Sun-Ceres 90-degree tie can be tweaked to actually increase your productivity across the board.  In addition, Sagittarius Moon remains in effect — offering you a chance to explore the great outdoors in a highly adventurous manner. You won’t hear any complaints from Venus since her planetary archetype moves on and continues glowing while engaged in a flowing trine with the Moon (2:02PM PDT). Love vibrations, the arts and social activities are looking mighty fine about now.
