Your Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, May 13th

Aries 

This is an important time for discovering ways to get over mental or emotional blocks, Aries. In fact, you can dedicate yourself to a new method of healing that inspires you, and you may very well find ways to finally do away with negative attitudes and situations that have been holding you back from enjoying your life. Breakthroughs in thinking, living, being, and healing can be in focus now. Forgiveness may be part of all of this, and is a powerful healer in and of itself. This is a strong day for enjoying solitude or silence, a break from the usual routine, some therapeutic dreaming, and possibly some rest.

Taurus

This can be a day in which you help others to find themselves, Taurus, or to discover their own talents, ideas, and possibly even life calling. This can also be a time when there is breakthrough thinking or circumstances that revive and reinforce your own dreams and plans. This can be a period of renewal or healing, particularly on creative and social levels. You may feel freer to express your individuality or your more unorthodox ideas and plans. It’s a time for feeling especially inspired. While you feel quite rooted and secure, you also have a strong sense of mission and commitment to growing and improving.

Gemini

There can be times these days when you really don’t know where you’re headed exactly, Gemini, whether it’s because you’re on a new career trajectory, caught between jobs, have attained a new status, or have trouble choosing the path you’d like to take. Today and this week, there can be a breakthrough on this front. You might enjoy a renewed sense of mission or dedication to a particular path that comes as a result of new insight or methods and approaches discovered now. On some level this is about your life purpose, and it’s important to open yourself up to information coming in now, as well as your own responses and feelings.

Cancer

This is a strong time for learning and teaching, dear Cancer. You can have eye-opening experiences and discoveries this week, and these can be powerful enough to alter the way you look at your life, your belief systems, your personal philosophy, and possibly even an educational path or mental interests. There can be the refueling of an interest in a particular subject, lifestyle, or way of thinking as a result of what you’re discovering now. This can be an inspirational time, when you feel a stronger sense of mission, and perhaps a strong hunger for new experiences, faith, understanding, and sense of meaning or purpose.

Leo

This is a strong time for coming to a breakthrough of sorts in a research project, a psychological problem, or an intimate relationship with the Moon, Chiron, and Vesta joining together today in your solar eighth house. This new insight can reignite your motivation or dedication to a particular field of study, personal growth path, or even a relationship. It’s a strong time for healing, regenerating, growing, sharing, and teaching. You may be feeling stronger, more empowered, and even masterful now. This can be an important time for insight into a relationship or feelings for someone, and a partnership may reach a new level of understanding for some of you.

Virgo

This is a powerful time for gaining new insight, dear Virgo, that fuels your desire to pursue a particular path or to make a relationship choice. With Chiron and Vesta joining together in your partnership sector, there can be a breakthrough of understanding with a significant someone, or of a particular relationship, past or present, which fuels your dedication to a choice or lifestyle. Feeling a sense of mission is part of this, but be sure you are hitching your horse to the right wagon. The day is strong for compassion, understanding, healing, and teaching.

Libra

With the Moon, Chiron, and Vesta joining in your solar sixth house today, dear Libra, you can gain new insight into a health or work matter today and this week. This is a powerful time for discovering new methods or for coming to breakthroughs for healing or work, and whatever does open up now can fuel your motivation and dedication to a particular project or path. Alternatively, you may be facilitating or helping others to conquer a problem or transform in some positive way. It’s a strong time for learning new or alternative approaches to existing problems in your life.

Scorpio

This can be a time for helping or teaching others quite successfully, Scorpio, particularly about their value and creative power. It can also be a time for a creative or romantic breakthrough – a point of understanding or new insight that moves a relationship or a project to a whole new level. As well, this brings on a new or renewed dedication and commitment. There is new hope and a sense of mission now that becomes you. Because this configuration is occurring in your solar fifth house, this can affect any area ruled by the fifth house, so it might also be about an improved relationship with a child, a discovery or rediscovery of a talent or hobby, or a new commitment to having more time to express yourself playfully and creatively.

Sagittarius 

With Chiron and Vesta joining in your sector of home and family today, Sagittarius, there can be a real breakthrough this week that reinvigorates a home project or a family relationship. There can be a renewed commitment to family or dedication to improving your home life. It’s important through all of this helping and nurturing others that you don’t forget to take good care of yourself. You may in fact come to some conclusions now that you need more security, familiarity, and nurturing in order to truly love and live your life. This is an empowering time – aim to get in touch with the part of you that needs to feel safe and secure.

Capricorn

The Moon is in your communications sector all day, and Vesta and Chiron join forces in the same area of your chart, Capricorn. This brings a strong desire to work on problem areas, particularly related to communicating, siblings, and learning. This might also be a good, brave time for releasing your troubles by communicating them, such as through journaling, blogging, or conversations. Storytelling can be therapeutic. Automatic writing may also be helpful. You can do a good job of teaching others how to cope in areas that have been difficult for you in the past. Finding new methods of coping with the pressures of daily life, and thriving, can be in focus. There can be a breakthrough related to learning, or involving a relationship barrier.

Aquarius

You could have a breakthrough on the level of business, personal finances, or valuables, Aquarius, which enlivens or reinvigorates your motivation to pursue a particular path or to take better care of your money and resources. For some of you, you have new insight into your own worth and value, or your natural talents, and this serves to boost your confidence, having the same effect of motivating you to pursue your goals and dreams. A helpful conversation may be behind this feeling, but you can have a real sense that you can take care of yourself and move forward more confidently. New specific goals towards a safe, comfortable, and secure life can emerge now.

Pisces

The Moon, Chiron, and Vesta are joining together in your sign today, Pisces, and this can stimulate a rather magical energy around you, encouraging breakthrough thinking, self-improvement, and health and wellness initiatives. This can also bring out the humble teacher in you, as others can be drawn to your healing aura and natural wisdom. You are open and willing, and you could find that renewed or new motivation to improve your approach to life is with you and lifts your spirits. This is a wonderful time for body and image therapy, teaching, learning, healing, and sharing.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, May 12th

Aries 

Mars, planet of action and your ruler, is now heating up your solar third house, Aries. This is the sector of you chart that rules communications, transportation, and learning, and this transit lasts until June 24th. This is a time for diversifying, although at times you can feel overloaded or scattered if you take on too much. Watch for impatience on the road and while moving about. There might also be a harsher style of communication, particularly with Mercury retrograde later this month in the same sector. This is a strong time, however, for enthusiasm and energy when it comes to studying and mental interests. Today, watch for manipulative behavior, and be careful about reacting too quickly on a verbal level in professional places. You may be wanting your way more than usual, and could become quite frustrated if there doesn’t seem to be a direct route to getting what you want.

Taurus

Mars, the planet of drive, passion, energy, and anger, is now in your solar second house, dear Taurus, where it will transit until June 24th. This stimulates a stronger interest in your material needs and wants, and the courage or drive to pursue these things. While you still have the Sun in your sign encouraging some much-needed attention to yourself and your needs, Mars leaving your sign brings this tendency down a notch. More and more, you are focusing on what makes you feel secure and how to go about achieving more comfort, familiarity, and security in your life. You can also be especially protective of your values, and while you can be quicker than usual to jump to your (or someone else’s) defense during this period, consider other ways of dealing with these issues that might serve you better. It’s a strong period for working through issues related to self-esteem, and for building confidence in what you’re worth. Today, avoid power games and controlling behaviors, which might more readily emerge over money matters.

Gemini

Mars entered your sign last night, dear Gemini, and will continue to transit your sign until June 24th. During its recent journey through your privacy sector, it likely stimulated all sorts of discoveries about buried “matter” such as anger or emotional slush, but didn’t always make it easy to release these things directly and straightforwardly. Some of you could have been or felt confined at times during this cycle, such as through illness, injury, or simply fatigue, which has forced you to reflect upon your goals. Now that Mars is in Gemini, there is more fire and dynamism to draw upon and express. You very easily get fired up, and have a stronger desire to get things done. Today, however, you can quickly become frustrated with people who seem to be holding something back or who can’t seem to be straight with you. Choosing to rise above game-playing is your best bet all around.

Cancer

Mars has begun its transit of your soul sector, dear Cancer, and will continue to transit this area of your solar chart until June 24th. It’s a strong cycle for reflection, taking action on private matters, and recognizing frustrations that have been operating just under the surface of things but that you haven’t truly acknowledged until now. A lot may be going on behind the scenes or on the inside that you’re not ready to share with others. You can experience unusual but compelling attractions and desires. Today, there can be some hard to define anger issues rising, particularly related to a significant person in your life. Even so, there is good energy for strategy and planning.

Leo

With Mars now transiting your solar eleventh house, Leo, there is easier energy with you for moving your plans forward in general. This cycle that lasts until June 24th can bring teamwork into stronger focus, and it can also stimulate a desire to oversee and organize projects. This can be a busy period when you’re in bigger demand socially, and it can also be a period when you are especially motivated to create new long-term plans and even a new business. Today’s energies are a little intense, stimulating any pent-up or buried anger to emerge in possibly unusual ways. The more irritating side of working as a team could be an issue now if not everybody is pulling their weight. Someone could be acting provocatively or trying to attract your attention in ways that frustrate you. However, you’re also in a good position to make an intuitive breakthrough when it comes to your work today.

Virgo

Mars is now at the top of your solar chart, dear Virgo, stimulating your ambitions and drive to get ahead,  and will continue to energize this area of your chart until June 24th. This change brings a decidedly strong need to take action when it comes to fulfilling your responsibilities and pushing your professional interests ahead. Impulsive moves and conflicts with authority may be problem areas, however. Today, it can be a challenge to balance the demands of your career with the need to tend to your relationships. You might be totally bent about fixing a problem or getting something done, and could get frustrated that others are not getting on board, or worse, are getting in your way. Try not to stress over the little things today.

Libra

Mars has begun its transit through fellow Air sign, Gemini, dear Libra, after spending some time in an incompatible sign, and this is good news generally speaking for pursuing your desires. You are subtly more confident and outgoing during this cycle that extends until June 24th. You’re braver, more courageous, and less inhibited now. Competitive and physical activities are generally favored. There can be relationship opportunities through travel, non-routine activities, and higher education for some of you. Today, others can seem a little controlling. Power plays today have their root in fear of “losing” whether that’s a position, label, or person. Try to raise yourself above it.

Scorpio

Fiery Mars began transiting your intimacy sector last night, Scorpio, and will continue to bring energy, heat, and desire to this area of your chart until June 24th. While this transit can bring issues of power and sharing to the surface in challenging ways, you have the power to use this time constructively, as you are more able to apply strategy when it comes to going after what and who you want. You can be very sensitive to the give-and-take side of a relationship at this time. Watch for the magnification of problem areas, particularly related to suspicion. Today, you could be bent on finding an answer or getting to the truth of a matter, perhaps at all costs. However, do consider the costs, especially if this is causing you unnecessary stress. Communication breakdowns are possible now, and it’s all too easy for you to become agitated or impatient. Do your best to let things go for your own peace of mind.

Sagittarius 

Mars is now journeying through your partnership sector and opposing sign, dear Sagittarius, where it will continue to transit until June 24th. This can be an animated, energized, passionate, and sometimes problematic period for close relationships. You might find that others are pushy or trying to take the lead. However, it can be a great time for finally dealing with problem areas in your relationships. It’s important to be active with a partner now, and to channel excess energy well. There can be a lot of activity in the relationship department or in your social life, and for some, an active time spent with counselors or other one-on-one situations. Today, watch for automatic responses to frustrating situations. Consider ways to release tension or resentment productively.

Capricorn

Mars is now energizing your work and health routines, Capricorn, and will continue to do so until June 24th. Daily life may speed up, and might at times be a little chaotic without careful management. For some of you, there is a larger workload to deal with, but for others, it may have to do with wanting to do more or increased motivation to take on more projects. With Mars, we always have to watch for overdoing things and pushing too hard or too quickly. In this case, if you are anxious to work harder or step up an exercise program, for example, be careful you don’t overexert yourself. Also watch for conflicts with people you work or live with, as you can be working at a quicker pace. Otherwise, with energy channeled well, you can get quite a bit done. Today, watch for a tendency to stress out over small problems, particularly those that have to do with power plays, seeking out the truth at all costs, or gaining the upper hand.

Aquarius

Mars is now transiting in harmony with your sign, Aquarius, having entered fellow Air sign, Gemini, last night. This transit, lasting until June 24th, is a strong one for romance, entertainment, personal appeal, and the pursuit of pleasure and your desires in general. With Mars, there is always the possibility of raised passions, conflict, impatience, and impulsiveness, but when channeled well, you can feel quite enthusiastic and courageous. It’s a playful and expressive period. Your energy levels improve and you tend to assert yourself with more success and ease. This can also be a good time for physical activity and competition in general. You are bound to put more energy into pleasure and play during this cycle! Today, there can be some tendency to side-eye and to be side-eyed with Mars and Pluto in difficult aspect firing up resentments and ambitions.

Pisces

Until June 24th, Mars is moving in a challenging position to your sign, Pisces, suggesting that you may need to work a little harder to achieve your goals in the coming weeks. This is a strong cycle for getting things done on the homefront, and/or dealing with problems, including family-related ones, from the root. Excess energy in your home and family sector can certainly stir up conflict, but this can be useful for bringing problem areas out into the open. Today, there can be some inclination to manipulate, and you are more likely to be at the receiving end. For whatever their reasons, people don’t seem to be going after what they want in a straightforward way. You might easily ferret out the truth or at least information that you need, but tension can ensue with friends if people sense ulterior motives or that they’re being figured out! It’s hard to win today when it comes to friends and family, so it may be better to aim simply to focus on your own needs.

Inspiration for the Week – The Means to Fulfill Your Desires

Shanta Gabriel
To read more of Shanta’s insight, visit her website, Messages from Archangel Gabriel

You would not have the desire without the means to fulfill it.

It has been said that inherent in every problem is its solution. It is the same with your desires. Some part of you believes that it is possible or you would not even have the desire.

Your Soul knows that certain desires are necessary for you to fulfill in order to accomplish your learning in this lifetime on earth. These are not the desires that are stimulated by mass marketing. These desires are the ones that are often buried deep in the heart and are so precious that you may have to give yourself permission to even think about them.

Sometimes it is necessary to expand and stretch into the idea that all things are possible. It’s important that we not to allow ourselves to rule anything out when first a creative thought pops into our awareness. That may be only the beginning of a dream or a desire that we truly need to entertain for our life to have meaning and purpose. I have to keep reminding myself that my dreams do not have to make sense to my rational mind.

We live in a world of pure potential where we create changes and new life abounds through the focus of our attention. As spirituality and quantum physics come together, the power of this truth has been proven through years of scientific experiments.

In this new and powerful time of awakening, it feels important that we bring the dreams of our hearts into reality by focusing our intentions on what will most empower us, what gives us passion and brings delight and meaning into our lives. Is it a risk? Always, but to me it is more of a risk to not follow the intelligence of my heart and the desires of my Soul.

The Gabriel Messages # 52

You would not have the desire without the means to fulfill it.

Dear One,

All things in life are a part of the Universal Consciousness. This includes the desires of your heart. You have within you all that it takes to fulfill these desires and create the life you want to have. Know that each time you feel a deep longing, the seed of fulfillment is inherent within it.

There is a deep re-awakening within you, showing you a potential for all that you desire. This re-awakening results from your connection to God and the remembrance of the Angels who are guiding you always. As you commune more and more with this energy, your life will begin to take on the magical qualities you desire.

It begins with letting go. When you know in your heart that all your needs will be abundantly met, you can release the part of you that wants acquisition. You will now be free to discover the true desires in your heart. True desires have qualities that are fulfilled when the desires have been manifested. If the desire is for money, there is a quality that your heart seeks to have fulfilled — a sense of safety, an abundant lifestyle, or perhaps, simply freedom from worry.

Becoming aware of these qualities allows you to take action to gain these first, which will then allow the material form to manifest in a form which is in your highest good. The first step after discovering the qualities you seek, is always to ask for what you want, making sure you clearly state the qualities you are seeking to have. The Angelic Dimensions stand ready to assist you in the process of gaining all you desire in your life. Clarity is key.

Practice

It is truly the Divine’s Plan to have all beings live in a state of abundant joy and freedom from fears: people living with peace, harmony and love in the world as well as within their families. These qualities are not too much to ask for in your prayers because they are the natural state of balance in God’s world. Your prayers you offer in order to attain them opens your mind and heart to fulfillment in your personal life.

It is also vital to be in the company of like-minded souls who believe that miracles are not only possible, they are also willing to have them manifest in their own lives. It is clear that in some situations in the world, only a miracle of divine proportions can create a solution. With enough people believing miracles are possible, there is no doubt that creative solutions, which are beyond the mind’s ability to understand atd. Be the first one to ask for this time, will occur.

Begin now to allow miracles to manifest in your world Divine Intervention, and to share your belief with others, so that all may live in a new level of conscious awareness and abundant joy.

Those desires in your heart are there to remind you that miracles happen, and the Divine provides you the ways to have all the good you desire in your life. Know that you are blessed and profoundly loved. Call on the Divine Presence and the Angels, then allow the desires of your heart to be fulfilled.

Remember, you would not have the desire without the means to fulfill it.
