Daily Cosmic Calendar for Jan. 12th

To get to today’s fortunate vibrations, hang in there and keep the faith. First of all, a void lunar cycle in Leo begins when the Moon opposes sometimes chaotic and unreliable Neptune (12:25AM PST). By 1:45AM PST, the void lunar uncertainty zone ends when the Moon enters meticulous and industrious Virgo. Over the next 2+ days, it is wise to shape-shift into being the efficiency master and supreme organizer across the board. Helping you cover all bases is a grand triangle in earth signs as the Moon in Virgo trines Jupiter in Taurus (3:19AM PST) while the Moon moves on to make additional harmonious trines to Mercury (1:34PM PST) and Pluto (3:12PM PST) – both of which are in Capricorn. Stay on track to reach a new career summit or develop new entrepreneurial talents. Putting you over the top is this evening’s vitalizing Sun-Mars flowing trine in earth signs (8:47PM PST). Athletics, exercise routines and construction projects receive reinforcement. Enhance your leadership credentials. It’s not every day when a grand triangle arranged by the Moon happens along with a trine including the solar orb and red planet. Get set for potential psychic and emotional fireworks tomorrow morning as Mercury joins forces with Pluto while Venus becomes cozy with Neptune.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, Jan. 11th

Our actions don’t seem to elicit the responses that we expected today. Instead, everything takes longer now that energetic Mars in detail-oriented Virgo is moving very slowly, getting ready to go retrograde in a couple of weeks. Mars forms supernatural septiles with Venus and Mercury, turning things weird. Thankfully, dreams can become real as the fearless Leo Moon guides us to overcome uncomfortable situations by maintaining a positive attitude.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your ruling planet Mars is held suspended in time today, making it difficult to initiate action. Even if you have a concrete plan, it may be nearly impossible to stick to it. The timing is off now; just as you are finally ready to start a new project, a wave of emotions can sweep over you and catch you off guard. Nevertheless, you don’t need to wait any longer; it’s time to sprint toward your destination no matter what. Concentrate on reaching your goals, even if they suddenly seem far away.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Taking action too soon may not seem like your regular style, but you might become so impatient today that you do something without considering what might happen next. You could get hooked by someone who has a specific idea of what you should be doing at work. You’re willing to jeopardize the stability of your current job for a chance at real success. Go for it, but don’t burn any bridges that you will later regret.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You want to create a big splash now as you demonstrate how proactive you can be in a tough situation. However, you might not think that revealing your emotions is a good idea. Although finding your center of gravity is useful, acting cautiously actually helps your cause. There’s no need to change everything all at once. Instead, take a few steps backward, breathe deeply and give it your best shot again once you’re ready.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You’re motivated to take on a new project today, but as you get closer to starting your excitement might begin to wane. Even if you do jump in, you might not have sufficient stamina to finish it, so try not to waste too much energy. Managing your resources wisely now could be crucial to your well-being later. There’s a lot happening around you, so it’s wise to prioritize your tasks immediately and not after it’s too late.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may not be comfortable with your role as an action hero today as fiery Mars runs into a complex web of aspects. You might feel as if you’re ready to boil over, yet the fire isn’t quite hot enough to do the trick. Cooling your jets until everything is in order may not be an option because the window of opportunity won’t stay open for very long. Even if you don’t have a detailed plan in place, just grab the chance while you can and apply your energy to creating your future.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may not feel like seeing too many of your friends and acquaintances today, so your initial impulse might be to withdraw from the action. Unfortunately, this isn’t the healthiest response, especially if your presence is helpful. Think about following through with your social obligations while still leaving some time left over to follow your dreams. You can do it all now if you don’t lose yourself to your fantasies along the way.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Nearly everything in your life appears to be growing more complicated again, especially if your friends and associates make demands that raise your anger. You’re not interested in being pushed around now, and if you’re provoked you’re likely to surprise others by stepping into combat mode. It makes the most sense for everyone to leave you alone today, unless they’re ready to play by your rules.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your traditional ruling planet Mars is the major planetary player today as it surrealistically septiles magnetic Venus and motor-mouth Mercury. This erratic energy can transform a simple conversation into a major conflict or a passionate encounter. Fortunately, you may be more adept now at making peace, not war. However, you must remain vigilant because conscious effort on your part won’t just happen on its own.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your day is busy with noisy conversations, too many emails and a phone that won’t leave you alone. You could even lose your temper if today’s data overload becomes too much for you to manage. However, ego battles aren’t useful and have no place in your life. Blaming someone else won’t accomplish anything of value; stop talking about the past and shift your attention to the positive changes you want to make for the future.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You might want to demonstrate your passion to a loved one today and see where the process carries you. However, you could miss a prime opportunity unless you stay true to your feelings and communicate them honestly. You really don’t have to add flourishes to your words or need to embellish your actions. Just tell the truth in a straightforward manner to minimize the possibility of misunderstandings.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Partnerships remain in the spotlight today as the needy Leo Moon’s presence in your 7th House of Companions pulls you toward others. However, Mars is being stressed in your 8th House of Intimacy, prompting you to believe that a friend or lover is crowding your comfort zone. Be courageous and defend your personal space, but don’t take things too far by attacking someone else. Even if you’re a bit worried, you’re probably not in as much danger as you might think.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may seem more approachable to others today, which encourages them to trust you with their needs. If someone is trying to finish a project and looking for reinforcement, you’re the go-to person now. Unfortunately, you’re growing tired of having to hold down the fort. But avoiding your responsibilities isn’t a real option, so start right away. The quicker you get rolling, the sooner your work will be complete.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for January 10th

Every so often the universe decides to take a siesta and cease bombarding Earth and human souls with challenging alignments. Right now only a trio of minor lunar aspects – the Moon in Leo contra-parallel to Venus (8:54AM PST), the Moon moving 45-degrees to Mars (9:15AM PST) and the Moon forming an off-kilter, 150-degree tie to Pluto (10:23AM PST) – has the capacity to throw you off course. It is more likely that you can continue to distribute the cosmic goodwill vibes that descended from divine planes of consciousness during Sunday night’s Full Moon. In addition, Leo Moon contains that built-in playful and child-like sensitivity. Take a break from the dog-eat-dog, hectic pace of life by visiting an art gallery, museum or national landmark. This is a good point in the Cosmic Calendar to let you know that Mars is slowing down with each passing day until it makes a station and turns retrograde in earthy Virgo on Monday January 23. [Mars in Virgo will remain in reverse until April 13.] Once Mars is retrograde, it is a good time to review and re-evaluate your desires, passions, and overall emotional demeanor. Working on issues like anger management and being too egocentric are appropriate during every Mars reversal (which happens approximately every two years). Between now and January 23, Mars remains in direct motion and you can keep moving ahead with many of your independent, assertive and dynamic enterprises – as long as you do so with some care, efficiency and organizing skills (some of the gifts that the sign Virgo provides to the red planet during its long stay in this sixth sign of the zodiac).

New Moon Report for Jan. 8th – Full Moon in Cancer

New Moon Report

By Jeff Jawer

 

Full Moon in Cancer

Sunday, January 8, 11:30 pm PST, Monday, January 9, 2:30 am EST

The opposition of the Moon in sensitive Cancer to the Sun in dutiful Capricorn exposes two very different ways of seeking security. Subjective feelings of safety and personal comfort are needed with the Moon in maternal Cancer while hardening our defenses to face the challenges of the world is Capricorn’s task. Should we be tender or tough? Favorable aspects to the Sun and Moon from Mars in skillful Virgo empower us to find healthy ways to move between these two positions. The emotions kicked up by this lunation can show us how to nurture our inner needs while still standing strong in our public lives.

Daily Horoscopes for Friday, Jan. 6th

It’s challenging to feel satisfied today because an anxious quincunx between attractive Venus and assertive Mars indicates we could pursue the wrong things. We may be discouraged when we finally realize that we don’t actually want what we have earned. The breezy Gemini Moon prompts us to change our minds often during the day, while late night aspects to the cosmic lovers, Venus and Mars, can stir up an argument, even if we thought all was well.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

It’s difficult to maintain a steady work pace today if your natural rhythm feels off balance. Your key planet Mars is stressed in your 6th House of Daily Routine, possibly making advanced planning of your day counterproductive. It’s better to be free from too many commitments now because you could be required to respond to changing circumstances. If you feel as if you’re stuck in a rut, making small changes is healthier than turning everything upside down.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You typically stick with a decision once you make up your mind, but you might go back and forth several times today before you finally are satisfied with your choice. Your ambivalence could leave you feeling nervous, especially if you’re getting pressured by others to make a commitment. However, it’s not wise to give your final answer before you are comfortable with it. Step back from all the noise so you can listen to your inner voice; your intuition won’t steer you wrong now.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

It seems as if time is speeding up and your life is moving faster than you prefer. Normally, you like the thrill that comes from a lot of activity, but today you will be ready for some rest by the end of the day. Give yourself time to relax in the evening, since you will need to have your wits about you if relationship issues surface. An emotionally charged conflict that arises now is best handled in the present moment with honesty and kindness.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You would love to find a harmonious balance today between your desire to resolve an ongoing disagreement and your tendency to avoid difficult communication by withdrawing into your shell. Although you’re considering every option, you’re fairly comfortable with your own feelings. If you sense emotional tension in the atmosphere, make everyone feel better by confronting the issue directly.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may receive a “Get Out of Jail Free” card from the universe, however, you must use it right away. Although you haven’t solved any long-term issues, you can sidestep the problems for a while as you relax by taking a scenic ride today. Imagine yourself moving through the day as if it is a dream while always keeping one foot on the ground, so you won’t forget what’s real. Remain open to pleasurable experiences now without stressing about how you will integrate them into your life.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

The proverb “the devil is in the details” could be your unraveling today. Everything may appear to be unfolding according to your master plan, but it’s entirely possible you could overlook something very important. Rather than trying to minimize your error, face up to it right away. Avoiding a problem will only make it grow in size. Make the necessary changes so you can put things back on track as quickly as you can.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Today goes well for you if you can keep your feelings to yourself, since your desires will likely conflict with what others want. Unfortunately, you have something to say and you don’t want to put it off. Once you begin expressing yourself, it’s hard to know when to stop. You could work yourself into a state of anxiety that makes you less effective in communicating your message. Avoid becoming a victim of your own passion now by using as few words as you can to explain your point of view.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may be juggling your responsibilities today because you’re trying to accomplish too much at once. Still, you could complete everything that is required if you stop and prioritize what you need to do. Mapping out your day helps to prevent you from scattering your energy and frittering away your resources. Be realistic in your approach; if necessary, pare back activities instead of waiting until you’re already behind schedule.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may believe that a new strategy is required now to take a relationship to the next level or to revitalize it with fresh energy. Nevertheless, you still might resist the necessary changes unconsciously if you aren’t certain which way you want to go. Don’t let confusion stand in the way of truth. Rather than tapdancing around the edges of confrontation, be direct and say exactly what’s on your mind. Even if your opinion creates dissension, resolution will be possible once everything is out in the open.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You have lots of thoughts running through your head today, but it’s challenging to put them into words because they are moving so quickly. It’s difficult to gauge the impact of your presentation because one minute it seems as if everyone’s agreeing with you, and then the next minute someone’s belittling your perspective. Paradoxically, you’ll be more successful if you don’t try so hard. Be patient and save your most convincing arguments until tomorrow when the planets are on your side.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You might think that you can sweet talk your way through a tricky situation today, but someone may not be willing to take what you say at face value. There can be powerful feelings just beneath the surface, making it difficult for you to get your way. Normally, your fixed sense of purpose enables you to successfully navigate your way through the obstacles. Although it’s difficult to focus now, you can still win an argument if you remember to keep bringing the discussion back to the point at hand.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Although you may be an incurable dreamer, it’s not helpful to drift off into the clouds now. You won’t be able to complete what you have started if your mind keeps wandering into the future. It’s more important to concentrate on the present moment than to think about what you will need to do next. If necessary, lean on a trusted friend or partner for help. But even if someone’s advice feels more like criticism, listen to what you’re being told and consider incorporating it into your strategy.

Your Lunar Love Horoscope Overview for Jan. 6 – 8

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

Emotional Eruptions

January 6 – 8

Friday is fun and flirtatious with the Moon hanging out in chatty Gemini, making it easy to start conversations on virtually any subject with just about anyone. Minds are easily stimulated and curiosity about everything tempts us to gossip about others. But the heady side of this Air sign is augmented with physicality and a strong taste for pleasure when lunar connections with romantic Venus and passionate Mars spice up the evening with a lust for life and a hunger for love. Playful and provocative games can entertain those looking for diversion and inspire Eros for people lucky enough to have willing partners.

Emotions become even more powerful on Saturday with the Moon’s shift into watery Cancer. Yet the safety usually sought in this security-oriented sign is shaken by eruptions of unexpected events and volatile feelings. Rebellious Uranus springs surprises and reflects rapidly changing moods that can destabilize evening plans. Flexibility helps to keep the lid on the intensity, which is important with a supersensitive Cancer Full Moon occurring late Sunday night. This emotional lunation opposes powerful Pluto which could push people to extremes, taking relationships to critical points that may bring breakthroughs for some or cause breakdowns for others.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for January 6th

It may seem that the upcoming Full Moon that will happen late on Sunday night is far into the future. Nonetheless, in astrology, the two days prior to a Full Moon represent a 48-hour time-period to prepare for the enlightening vibrations that come through to humanity from divine sources at the Full Moon. The two days after a Full Moon signify a distribution phase of the illuminating energies received. Therefore, a complete five-day process is really at work. Your job today is to stay in clear contact with friends and dear ones – gently guiding them upward and onward to the heights of inspiration that can occur a couple of evenings from now. While a supportive, 60-degree link from Vesta to Pluto (8:24PM PST) and a flowing trine from the Moon in Gemini to Venus in Aquarius (8:41PM PST) can give you a wealth of happy feelings, spurring you to excel in business ventures, and creative and artistic media, the Moon also squares Mars (8:45PM PST) while Venus in Aquarius and Mars in Virgo form an off-kilter, 150-degree link (9:28PM PST). Of these two aspects, the Venus-Mars 150-degree connection is the one to watch and possibly tweak in your favor. The tendency is for love bonds to possibly go awry due to a miscommunication. However, focus and attentiveness on your part may save the day. The bottom line is that you want to keep your distance from battles of the will and foolish arguments that lead to cul-de-sacs of the mind and heart.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for January 4th

Once you shake off the emotional tensions coming from a Moon-Venus square (2:50AM PST), there is an excellent heavenly aspect attempting to raise your productivity quotient several notches – an inspirational, 72-degree tie from the Sun to the largest asteroid Ceres (3:16AM PST). Your personal charisma can soar later on as the Moon in Taurus trines Mars in Virgo (8:39AM PST) followed by a sensational Venus-Jupiter 72-degree contact (12:17PM PST). Take advantage of all glowing opportunities coming your way. Know that your creative artistry and optimistic mind-set can attract good fortune to you like a magnet. Overdoing a good thing may land you in hot water as the day proceeds since the Sun makes a frictional, 45-degree link to dreamy Neptune (3:13PM PST) while Mercury forms an abrasive square to Ceres (10:37PM PST). The Sun and Neptune in any kind of challenging rapport has the potential of building a temporary haze that can fog up your approach to dealing with affairs of the heart and money matters. Due to Mercury being at odds with Ceres, you may want to consider shifting your diet and nutritional needs on to a higher plateau.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of January 2nd

The weekend starts out on a sassy note with the playful Gemini Moon’s creative connections to the cosmic lovers Venus and Mars. This flirtatious mood passes quickly, though, as the mood-setting Moon slips into sensitive Cancer on Saturday afternoon. Feelings shift for no reason and plans change without warning, reminding us to be flexible to maintain emotional balance.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Finding your comfort zone could be challenging this weekend with an awkward alignment of alluring Venus and aggressive Mars on Friday. Statements may be misinterpreted and stronger emotions might follow during the next two days that arouse defensive feelings. A little bit of discretion, an open mind and a strong dose of self-control can go a long way to help you avoid frustration and frayed nerves.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Your peace-loving ruling planet Venus is shaken by tense planetary patterns this week. Volatile Uranus springs surprises on Monday and provocative Pluto arouses mistrust on Saturday. Adjusting your social expectations helps you avoid feeling bullied or being perceived as stubborn. Still, addressing your deep feelings this weekend could strengthen a relationship if you’re able to discuss them without engaging in a blame game or falling victim to shame.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

The Moon in your chatty sign is rich with social opportunities on Friday. The flirtatious side of your personality casts you in a positive light as long as you don’t take yourself too seriously. The mood changes drastically on Saturday, possibly provoking you to question your self-worth and what you want from others. You may not resolve issues right away, so allow time for feelings to settle instead of pushing for immediate answers.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You may have the sense that something is coming to a head since this week finishes with an evocative Full Moon in your sign late on Sunday night. It’s important to weigh your options and open up the lines of communication to maintain some semblance of order in your relationship life. A constructive conversation could go a long way to making sense out an emotionally charged issue. There are many different ways to look at your situation, so keep your mind and heart open to what others have to say.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Your ruling planet, the Sun, slips on an unsteady aspect with spacey Neptune on Wednesday that can stir up clouds of confusion. Feelings can change quickly this weekend, as a playful Friday of fun and frolicking turns more serious on Saturday and Sunday. Avoid making any major decisions until your clarity returns. It’s probably best now to spend some quiet time alone or with one person who you trust completely.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

The reason that often guides your life can go up in a puff of smoke this weekend. The jittery Gemini Moon turns Friday into a kaleidoscope of contrasting feelings and confusing plans. Logic may return on Sunday when your brainy planet Mercury enters calculating Capricorn to help you communicate more clearly. Just don’t let a sense of certainty allow you to come across so strongly that you sound like you aren’t interested in listening to others.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your hopeful nature may be challenged on Saturday when sweet Venus is stressed by manipulative Pluto. While this cosmic tension could bring some important relationship issues to the surface, it could also sow seeds of mistrust with someone you love. But if you’re single, this transit can awaken feelings of intense desire or inspire you to exaggerate your flaws. The situation, though, is less extreme than you think, so try not to overreact unnecessarily.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may be seeking the comfort of familiar places and faces this weekend. Yet you might be surprised by unexpected reactions that can throw you off balance now. Instead of looking to the past for the security you crave, it’s wiser to search for different experiences and ideas to freshen up your personal life. Strange individuals or unfamiliar situations can be exciting when you maintain a healthy spirit of adventure.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The Moon is traveling through your relationship houses this weekend, which is bound to energize your social life. Friday could be a blast with a lunar presence in lighthearted Gemini. However, the tone turns more serious on Saturday when feelings grow tender and complex issues in partnerships are exposed. Being gentle in the face of someone’s strong emotions helps you gain trust and can deepen your connection in the long run.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

The Moon enters your 7th House of Partners on Saturday, putting relationship issues on the front burner for the rest of the weekend. But this lunar transit is in subjective Cancer, which challenges you to push past reason to connect on an emotional level. Feelings can run the gamut from excitement to mistrust, which undercuts stability, yet you may be headed toward an emotional breakthrough triggered by the reflective Cancer Full Moon late Sunday night.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Thursday and Friday are great times for fun and games. The clever Gemini Moon’s presence in your 5th House of Romance puts more sparkle in your personality. It may be hard, however, for others to know whether you’re being serious or not. If you’re just teasing, it’s helpful to give some broad hints so that your behavior isn’t misinterpreted and you end up spending the rest of the weekend making amends.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may be a little antsy this weekend since you can already anticipate the reflective Cancer Full Moon lighting up your 5th House of Romance very late on Sunday night. Friday may be festive and fun, but feelings grow stronger and more intense with the Moon slipping into caring Cancer on Saturday. Some emotional drama is possible, so give yourself and others a little slack for going over the top. Sometimes you have to go to extremes to discover your limits.

Your Daily Horoscopes for December 30th

It may feel as if the year is ending today rather than tomorrow because the imaginative Pisces Moon coaxes us out of the real world and into our dreams. The Moon’s creative square to mental Mercury allows us to bend the facts based upon our needs while her tense opposition to feisty Mars increases our impatience. Meanwhile, an eccentric Mercury-Uranus alignment fills our fantasies with unconventional ideas that encourage us toward radical action.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You probably have a clear set of objectives and understand why it’s important to tie up loose ends today. However, your mind is on everything except work because you’re eager for the weekend to begin. The Moon’s presence in your 12th House of Escapism opposes action-hero Mars in your 6th House of Employment, enticing you to find ways to avoid doing much of anything. Unfortunately, you’ll pay the price for procrastinating, so bite the bullet and get your chores done before it’s too late.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You are in a creative mood today, but you might not have time for artistic pursuits. Responsibilities at work have piled up or there are chores yet to finish at home. Nevertheless, a bit of concentrated effort can go a long way now if you don’t allow yourself to be distracted by everything interesting thing that comes to your attention. Narrow your focus so you have time to explore playful self-expression later in the day.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You may be uncertain about what you need to do in order to live up to other people’s expectations. For example, your boss might give you unclear directions and then be unavailable to answer your questions. Or, you might have previous obligations that distract you from a current assignment. In any case, accepting the impossibility of pleasing everyone frees you to simply do the best you can and then let go until the confusion clears.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your head is filled with such big ideas now that it’s unrealistic to make any of them come true. Even if you create a prioritized list of things to do, your wandering mind scatters your thoughts and actions. Instead of biting off more that you can chew, use the day to review the previous year and think about the next one. Don’t judge yourself harshly if you aren’t very productive today. Some days are just meant for dreaming.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You want to stretch your boundaries today by talking about your feelings with someone special. However, your words may seem vague, even if you have very specific things you want to say. Ironically, using fewer words helps you to be more concise in your thinking. Save the long rambling conversations for another day; instead, let your actions speak for you.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may be stressed out by someone close to you because you cannot figure out what he or she wants. Even if you’re asked for something very specific, you could be confused when you deliver the goods only to have your partner or friend tell you that you got it wrong. You might begin to think that you’re in a no-win situation, but your frustration is temporary. Thankfully, you’re able to change the dynamics when you stop trying so hard and just treat your loved ones with kindness.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You have high hopes for improving your daily health regimen now and may try to put your goals into the form of resolutions for the New Year. However, the dreamy Pisces Moon in your 6th House of Details makes it hard to put your desires into an executable plan. Instead of writing a list of vague generalities based upon unrealistic goals, be specific as possible. It’s better to have two or three concrete items than lots of good ideas that remain unrealized.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Although you might talk about how you’re going to increase your income or change your spending habits, your actions today don’t necessarily support your goals. You may be tempted to spend money on something for the sheer enjoyment of it. Unfortunately, you could become self-critical very quickly, preventing you from having the pleasurable experience you expected. Cut yourself some slack so you can have a little well-earned fun.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Although you continue to apply yourself toward specific professional goals, you might choose to leave work early today. You’re tempted to retreat into the hidden recesses of your own mind and leave some responsibilities unfulfilled. Instead of participating in social activities later on, consider staying home and escaping by watching a movie, playing video games or reading a book.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

This can be a good planning day as long as you remember to pay attention to the details. You’re tempted to dream big, while still understanding the need to maintain a practical outlook on your future. Even if you are thinking about taking a vacation to an exotic location, you’re able to keep yourself on track and within your budget. Research your options, take good notes, and don’t be afraid to do something you have never done before.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your friends and associates can be a source of good times today, but participating in social activities might end up costing you more than expected. It’s not that you’re stingy; it’s just than you would prefer to know in advance how much something will cost. Although you may want to blame others for misleading you, your eagerness to be involved might have inhibited you from asking too many questions up front. Let go of any resentment; for now, just enjoy yourself while you can.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It seems as if others are picking on you today for no reason at all. But the hypersensitive Pisces Moon is opposite Mars in critical Virgo, suggesting that you are more vulnerable now than usual. Don’t assume that everyone is on your case just because you’re feeling insecure. You could miss out on some very good advice if you’re afraid of hearing the truth.

Your Lunar Love Horoscopes for Dec. 30th – Jan. 1

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

Sweet and Spicy

December 30 – 1

Feelings may be soft and tender on Friday with the Moon in surreal Pisces. This whimsical lunar transit is excellent for romantic escapes where practical matters and responsibilities give way to dreams and fantasies. Movies and music are wonderful for tapping into the soulful emotions embodied by this tender lunar placement. Gently going with the flow without overt ambition creates an atmosphere of acceptance and compassion that engenders trust and affection.

Feelings of safety and the soft edges of imagination are burnt off with a lunar shift into fiery Aries on Saturday morning. The call for immediate action is shouted out with a verbally assertive square between communicative Mercury and forceful Mars. Channeling some of this mental heat into games redirects competitive instincts in a socially acceptable direction. Wit and humor can be delicious by-products of this spicy planetary pair, but sharp words cut deeply if we don’t measure them carefully. This New Year’s Eve is more likely to spur loud talk and raucous behavior rather than the sentimental sounds of “Auld Lang Syne.” Slow down to avoid dangerous actions or incendiary speech.

Sunday may be slightly mellower even though there’s still a dash of impatience present with the impetuous Aries Moon ringing in the New Year.

Good Tuesday Morning/Afternoon to you, dearies!

Magickal Graphics Good Tuesday to you all! I hope everyone is having a great day. I know it is back to work. But there is a good news this week, it is a short work week. I am sure you have already figured that out, lol! I thought about doing something just for the fun of it but I didn’t know how you might react. You remember yesterday, I mentioned in one of my posts that the Twelve Days of Christmas started. Well I thought about take each day and tracking down a photo of that day’s gift and posting it. Then the next day take the previous day’s gift and add to it with the next day’s gift. I was just curious to see what a massive amount of gifts this person gave to his true love. I hope you don’t mind but after thinking about it, I think I will do it. I am sure after I start it your curiosity will get the best of you too. I have never been able to imagine that many gift and it is something I have always wanted to do. Who knows I might not be able to find twelve drummers drumming, lol! First, I got o track down the song, that is one I never learned in school.  Anyway you know what I am up to now, on with the Magick……

Spellcrafting for Tuesday

 

A CHARM TO BREAK A TROUBLESOME HABIT

You must take a white egg, and through small holes made in each end, blow forth the contents from the shell. Plug up one end with a little softened beeswax, then fill the shell, using a fine funnel, with sour red wine. Carefully seal the second hole with more wax, and in red ink write upon the surface of the shell the name of that plaguing compulsion you would be rid of.

Take this egg in secret to a place where great rocks cover the ground. Stand there and say these words:

“Hall of blood where life has fled
Walls of bone that close me round
I break thy reign, thy yoke I shed
I cast thy powers to the ground.”
 

Hurl the egg against a rock so that it shall burst into fragments and the contents be spilt upon the earth. Then gather up the broken bits of shell, take them home, and grind them into a powder in a mortar. This charmed dust should be kept within a small jar, a pinch of it to be placed on the tongue and swallowed whenever further treacherous temptations may appear.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of December 26th

Creating harmony in relationships, both new and old, can be difficult in this last week of 2011. Amorous Venus in freedom-loving Aquarius wants to experiment while passionate Mars in practical Virgo prefers to stick to familiar patterns. Flexibility is needed to maintain peace and end the year on a happy note.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Rest up on Friday night while the Moon is visiting your sleepy 12th house, because it’s firing into your sign early on Saturday morning and turning up the heat in your personal life. You’re hungry for new experiences and are not likely to be thrilled by a traditional and totally predictable New Year’s Eve. Do your best to avoid pushing reluctant individuals to make changes, because they might push back even harder. A less aggressive approach allows others to compromise and meet you halfway.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Friends can warm your heart on Thursday and Friday with the sweet and tender Pisces Moon’s presence in your 11th House of Groups. But you may either be too tired, shy or disinterested to be a hardy partier during the rest of the weekend. A lunar transit in your ultra-private 12th house could have you sitting on the sidelines, or you may simply decide that quiet time with a few trusted people is the best way to ring in the New Year.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Fast talking is fun this weekend, but there’s a risk of rubbing someone the wrong way on Saturday night. Your chatty planet Mercury crashes into a stressful square with combative Mars, which can turn a minor difference of perspective into a major fight. If you’re irritated or impatient, take a break and consider whether you want to argue about a petty detail that can make the night memorable in the wrong way. Your best move might be to smile and shake it off or, if that’s not possible, simply walk away.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You can cuddle up in the comfort of sweet feelings on Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday with the Moon swimming in sister Water sign Pisces. But the mood and tempo change on Saturday morning with a lunar shift into impetuous Aries. If you’re ready for a raucous time, you will love the high intensity atmosphere. But if you don’t like to be rushed in the pursuit of pleasure, seek out the company of quieter folks who are happy to slip away to someplace more private.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The Moon rockets into rambunctious Aries on Saturday to put some passion into your weekend. You’re looking for a lively partner and exciting experiences to ring in the new year. Sticking to the usual routine is not likely to be your idea of fun, so make this a time to experiment. Just don’t let unnecessary impatience, a petty disagreement or elaborate plans dowse the fires of discovery that are driving you. Maintaining your generosity of spirit and wicked sense of humor enables you to shine as the life of the party.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Relationships might be especially complicated this week. The Moon’s presence in peaceful Pisces and your 7th House of Partners brings some tender moments and spurs romantic dreams on Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday. But then a lunar transit into impatient Aries and your 8th House of Deep Sharing on Saturday morning can detonate some emotional bombs. This could be amazing if you’re ready for passion, yet it requires your willingness to take risks to fully enjoy it.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Things are heating up just in time to celebrate the New Year. The mood-setting Moon enters fiery Aries and your 7th House of Partners on Saturday morning to provoke excitement and increase your readiness for new experiences. It helps to have a dynamic partner who is ready for anything to join you in riding this rising wave of passion. Whether you’re into it for one night or for eternity, there are few limits to how far you’re willing to go. Have fun exploring new territory, but don’t get too close to the edge.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You could have a delicious time this week with the imaginative Pisces Moon’s visit to your 5th House of Romance on Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday. It seems like you can turn fantasies into reality, giving you the surreal feeling that you’re starring in a movie. Promises made and expectations raised encounter a stiff dose of reality starting on Saturday morning. If you’re disappointed over the weekend, don’t allow it to lead to a petty fight. It’s wiser to let go and head in a new direction than to get dragged into a conflict where no one wins.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The Moon blazes into incendiary Aries on Saturday morning to raise your emotional temperature for the weekend. This lunar transit could ignite instant fires of passion in your 5th House of Romance. Falling in love with someone new can happen in an instant, but your need for fresh experiences might put some pressure on an ongoing relationship. Whether you’re celebrating with a partner or friends, incorporating elements of surprise could do the trick. Work your magic and create some new rituals for the New Year that everyone will enjoy.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Entertaining within your comfort zone might be your best bet for New Year’s Eve while the independent Aries Moon visits your 4th House of Roots. Whether this means celebrating with old pals at your favorite watering hole or having people party at your house, it’s important that you feel comfortable. If you’ve been the host in the past, try making the event a little different this year by adding some surprising elements. In fact, a quiet evening alone enjoying some rest and relaxation might sound like the best idea of all.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Don’t let your head get in the way of your heart this weekend. Although this is a time to cut loose and have fun, your analytical mind could get stuck on a subject that becomes contentious. Word games are fun and you enjoy playfully sparring with clever people. Just be smart enough to notice when you or someone else is getting close to the edge of discomfort. Your “live and let live” attitude is an antidote to this potential for conflict. However, a bit of sensitivity keeps the emphasis on fun.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You might want to celebrate the New Year early with the Moon’s presence in your magical sign on Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday. Your emotions may be strong, but your compassion and imagination make this a special time. A lunar shift into impulsive Aries on Saturday intensifies the rest of the weekend with an edge of excitement and a sense of danger in the air. Unless you’re in a risk-taking mood, seek out the safety net of reliable people and predictable places to find your fun.

Daily Horoscopes for Friday, December 23rd

Although a positive outlook on the future prevails today, we may feel as if an emotional cycle is ending as we approach tomorrow’s New Moon. The inspirational Sagittarius Moon creates possibilities for magic, yet it’s up to us to make something happen or opportunities will pass us by. The Moon’s dynamic square to assertive Mars encourages us to act on our emotions, yet pushing too hard could alienate those who are ready to support us.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may believe that your fantasies can become real today if you are willing to take a risk and tell others exactly what you want. But the Moon’s square to your key planet Mars can put so much energy into your words that you frighten someone with your intensity rather than demonstrating your trustworthiness. Thankfully, a less aggressive approach allows you to be more convincing. Be sure you understand your audience before you take things too fast.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

The Moon’s anxious aspect with your ruling planet Venus combines your need for adventure with your desire to be popular. You may seek pleasure from new and different activities, but you must be careful not to avoid your responsibilities in the pursuit of social gratification. Entertaining your options doesn’t mean that you need to act on every whim. You can find ways to have a good time while still keeping your feet on the ground.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

A friend or co-worker may reveal a grandiose scheme to you today, yet you are fearful of getting caught up in a whirlwind of activity that spins your day out of control. There’s no harm in relaxing the reins a bit, but don’t let anyone take them away from you. Although you might enjoy yourself for a while if you didn’t have to do things your way, you’ll be happier now following your own agenda instead of someone else’s.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Someone may be very persistent today, making it difficult for you to say no. But it’s wise to take a deep breath and give yourself a little time to consider what you want before agreeing to anything. Don’t just say yes because you want others to like you. It’s healthier to go through the awkward process of establishing clear boundaries now than taking the easy way out. Ultimately, following your own dreams makes you happier than setting them aside to please anyone else.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Others want to know your secret because you usually seem cheerful and confident about what you are doing. Thankfully, you are blessed because you can have a lot of fun while fulfilling your daily obligations. But you can’t divulge your method because you don’t have a hidden formula. Just do what you do best; continue to be honest while living your life as transparently as you can. The simplest things can bring you joy now, even if the current challenges you face demand your attention.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You would be wise to take a small idea and build on it today, but be careful about inflating your expectations too much. It’s better now to achieve a modest success that makes you feel good about your accomplishments, rather than reaching too high and then facing the disappointment of failure. Fortunately, whatever you choose to do now is not set in stone; you will have opportunities to modify your goals as you move along.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may actually think that today is your lucky day — and a special fantasy just might come true. Don’t be afraid to trust your intuition; however, it’s not so smart to assume that you’ll receive exactly what you want. Your natural flexibility is the key to landing a delicious surprise that far exceeds your expectations. But stubbornly sticking to your previous agenda could cause you to miss the magic right in front of you.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your unwavering belief in yourself makes a big difference today, for your thoughts create the blueprint of your future. The outgoing Sagittarius Moon squares your key planet Mars in your 11th House of Long-Term Goals, coercing you to swing into action now and go for exactly what you want. But you won’t make much progress by taking baby steps, so boldly act on your most positive thoughts to make the best impression.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may feel anxious today, but it’s not because anything specific is going wrong. To the contrary, you’re worried that you’re missing something important in your positive assessment of what’s going on around you. But don’t let your concerns trick you into taking impulsive action. Methodically complete as much unfinished business as you can in preparation for the brand new cycle that begins after tomorrow’s New Moon.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may be concerned that someone’s holding out on you today by undermining your positive efforts. Unfortunately, you might not be able to find any tangible evidence to support your current worries. Paradoxically, the opposite might be true; something you choose to keep to yourself can turn a relationship inside out. Consider what you’re afraid to reveal and then think about how to shine the light of awareness on your secret. Bringing your truth out into the open may be enough to dissolve the gulf between you and others.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

The Moon’s visit to your 11th House of Social Networking helps lead you and your friends into the future. Don’t hold back; even if your dreams seem unrealistic, your unrestrained imagination helps you to visualize what’s ahead. Instead of allowing practical considerations to slow you down today, share your visions as they appear to you. You can always refine your plans later on to make them more concrete.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It’s not easy to separate your identity from what you do in the real world now that the Moon is moving through your 10th House of Public Responsibility. Whether you’re thinking about your profession, your role in the community or your place within your family, it’s important to understand where you stand so you can reconsider where you are going. Don’t rush blindly ahead; instead create a new agenda and make a manageable plan to reach your goals.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Friday, December 16th

It’s difficult to exercise caution today because optimistic Jupiter tempts us to take unnecessary risks when it forms an uneasy sesquisquare with energetic Mars. Nevertheless, we’re a bit skittish as Mars in critical Virgo motivates us to refine our plans rather than pursuing our goals. Meanwhile, the Moon’s visit to Virgo encourages us to limit our options. We may think that we’re playing it smart, but inaction only increases our frustration.

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

If you have been thinking about purchasing something special for yourself, you might impulsively decide to buy it today. However, your standards are rigid now, so it’s necessary to convince yourself that your current acquisition is not frivolous. It’s better to spend your money on tools for work than on something you don’t really need. Ultimately, it’s wiser to conserve your resources, so don’t be afraid to buck the tide and say no.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Although you want to put your life back in order, you probably can’t regain control over everything today. Your pragmatic common sense tells you to be cautious, but friends are encouraging you to make commitments without worrying about fulfilling them until later on. You might be able to improve your production pace by squeezing out a little more effort every day; however the possible negative impact on your life isn’t worth the tradeoff. Once you choose your priorities, establish clear boundaries so that everyone knows exactly what to expect.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You may believe that staying in motion keeps you relatively safe, as if instant karma can’t hit you while you’re moving. Even if you are enthused about living in such a dynamic time, you can grow tired of having to always be on the run. You might notice today that you’re longing for more relaxing times. Fortunately, you have the power to make the choice to wean yourself from high-adrenaline situations so you are able to live a longer and happier life. Be proactive and start now.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You might be tempted to jump into a project at work today if you have already created a detailed plan to ensure your success. You can manage your resources well, even if your friends pull you in several directions. It’s extremely difficult to pass by an opportunity that looks too good to ignore. However, following your instincts could lead to trouble if you wander too far off track. Avoid the disappointment that comes from overindulging your fantasies by buckling down and following your agenda, instead.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may be able to visualize the finished results on a big project today, yet any attempts to take a shortcut could be met with swift retribution. It’s a smart strategy to move past the flush of excitement about a new career direction so you can get down to serious business now. Don’t dilly-dally; it’s time to build a solid foundation in order to reach your impressive goals.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You’re rejuvenated by the Moon’s return to practical Virgo and can now create a strategy for living defensively. Although green lights seem to appear at every intersection today, you are wise to tap the brakes and look each way before continuing on. Don’t be distracted by good news; even if your future is looking fantastic, stop to check your map before blindly driving forward.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your extravagant behavior today may be an overreaction to hide your fears about what’s ahead. Fortunately, you could realize the extraordinary effect that your thoughts have on the future, leading you to choose fun and games over doom and gloom. Nevertheless, your attention is also required on matters of deeper concern, so don’t go off and bury your head in the sand. Balance optimism with realism for optimum results.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may think that you would be better off training for the marathon of your life that you believe is just ahead. But you might also conclude that it’s a good idea to enjoy yourself while you can, for you don’t really know what’s around the next corner. While considering these opposite perspectives, remember that your point of view continues to change, too, so every decision needs to stand on its own merits.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your optimistic outlook is encouraged by eager Mars’ aspect to your key planet Jupiter. Although you want more facts today, you might not have time to properly integrate them into your plan. However, you also want to establish new priorities to reduce the stress of having too much data. Instead of reaching out even further, limit your field of possibilities and take steps to utilize what you already know.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may believe that you’re regaining your stability now, just as a wave of big ideas washes in to sweep you off your feet. Ironically, you’re optimistic about your future, even if the current circumstances feel unsettling. Be careful about what you believe, for you could be influenced by those who seek blind support for the party line. Instead of following the herd, think for yourself and draw your own conclusions.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Although your future is looking better all the time, it’s wise to tread carefully since you could be building your strategy on incomplete data. Receiving praise from a powerful person is wonderful, but others may have their own reasons for giving you positive feedback now. Maintain a healthy attitude about your work, but don’t allow your strong desire for success to cast a rosy glow over reality. A practical approach will serve you much better than running from the truth.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your friend or co-worker may be overly critical of your actions today, but you might disregard other people’s negative comments because you think they’re being unrealistic or judgmental. Instead of learning from constructive feedback, you’re tempted to discredit anyone who doesn’t support your efforts. Keep in mind that your apparent adversaries could be much more helpful than you realize, so listen to the advice you receive and use it to make your position even stronger.

Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for December 16th – 18th

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

Work in Progress

December 16 – 18

Love and pleasure are available for those willing to work extra hard this weekend. The practical Virgo Moon favors productivity and pragmatism, leaving romantic fantasies behind and seeking more grounded ways to connect. Collaborating on a project is one way to have fun while taking care of business. Helping a friend or contributing time and energy to a cause in which you believe can be excellent alternative methods for meeting someone special.

Happily, there is a sweet trend on Saturday night when the earthy Virgo Moon aligns favorably with lovely Venus. You don’t need to spend a lot of money or do anything elaborate to tap into the simple pleasures available all around you.

The Moon’s move into the partnership sign Libra on Sunday morning turns the wheel in another direction. Normally, this shift should invite delight and harmonious partnerships but, alas, this may not be the case now. The Moon’s challenging square with manipulative Pluto could undermine trust and bring up old fears from the past. However, this relatively quick moving transit is trumped by a more challenging one: Venus’ square with severe Saturn. You might feel temporarily isolated and unloved, yet the point is not to suffer in silence but to face facts and stoically work harder to earn the affection you want.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for December 16th

From last night’s Moon-Jupiter trine from Virgo to Taurus to this morning’s Moon-Pluto trine from Virgo to Capricorn (7:56AM PST), there is a grand triangle hovering in the sky and offering you success and achievements in the business and professional realms. However, Mercury is only now beginning to gain much in the way of daily speed and three potential drawbacks occurs as Mars makes a frictional, 135-degree connection to Jupiter (8:02AM PST) while Vesta makes a rare union with Neptune in Aquarius (8:18AM PST) and the Moon unites with Mars in Virgo toward the end of the day (11:35PM PST). Trying to push your own agenda too far too fast can backfire. The Vesta-Neptune rapport suggests that by using your creative imagination and psychic sensitivity golden opportunities for forward progress can be made on the investment front. However, dashing ahead without a coherent game-plan or letting impatience take control won’t bring you deserved rewards. It is also wise to stop worrying about a wide variety of problems. Under Virgo Moon, this worry factor can doom almost any otherwise sensible enterprise. While you are wiping out worry, make sure you also eliminate criticism of self or others. This shadow side of the Virgo realm is another area of life that acts as a destroyer for our daily hopes. Reflection and contemplation during this lunar dispensation can remind you of the simple joys that make life worth living.
