Spell For Monday – JUST SAY NO CANDLE SPELL

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER)

JUST SAY NO CANDLE SPELL

What You’ll Need

Blue candle

Black candle

Sodalite

Black Tourmaline

Two strips of paper

Pen

Firesafe dish

Telling people no is one of the things I struggle with, and I know I’m not the only one. Part of it comes from being a people-pleaser, as many Libras are. I enjoy making others happy, and I’m also extremely competitive, so when I see an opportunity to get ahead, I often jump on it, even if it isn’t something I can actually manage at the time. This simple spell is designed to help you find your voice and say no when you need to. No in and of itself is some pretty powerful magic and knowing when to say no is freeing. You are not obligated, at any point, to say yes to anyone, especially if you are already hesitant to do so.

What to Do

This spell can be performed on the Full or New Moon.

As always, feel free to cleanse your items and charge them if you feel inclined. You may also cast a circle, call quarters, and ask for any divine assistance before beginning this spell. I didn’t do any of these for this particular spell, except cleansing the items before use.

When you are ready, sit the blue candle on the left and the black candle on the right. Light both candles at the same time. While the candles are burning, hold the sodalite in your hand and begin charging it with your intent: to increase truthful communication. Once you see it filling with blue light or it feels warm in your hand, place it in front of the blue candle. Next charge the black tourmaline with your intent: to banish your inability to say no when you need to. Note that I didn’t say banish your ability to say no all the time. Saying you want to banish all unwillingness to say no all the time is potentially dangerous. Instead, you want to only say no when you need and should to keep you safe and well. When you see it filling with black light or it feels warm in your hand, place it in front of the black candle.

Next, on one strip of paper write what you want to do: Increase communication. Phrase your intent in a positive light such as “I will communicate my true feelings” or “I will openly communicate with others and say no when needed.” On the next strip of paper, write what you are wishing to get rid of: you inability to say no when you need to. Again, phrase this in a positive light. “I banish my inability to say no when I should” or “I banish my inability to communicate truthfully when needed.”

Finally, burn the first strip of paper about open communication in the blue candle flame and the banishment strip of paper in the black candle. As they burn, see yourself standing tall and telling others no when they ask too much of you or you are unable to fulfill the task they wish you to complete. Say aloud,

“I will openly communicate with others and banish my inability to speak truthfully and say no when needed. This is true until I ask for it to be undone. And so it is.”

And that’s it! You can allow the candles to burn down the strengthen the spell or snuff them out if you are short on time. Dispose of the ashes by strewing them into the wind and leave your crystals sitting out on your altar for a week or two to help remind you of your intent.

To break this spell, light a single white candle and say,

“I no longer wish to communicate openly with others. I ask that the spell be removed. And so it is.”

All Signs

This week the Sun and Mercury are in Pisces, which means for the next several weeks, we will all feel otherworldly and a bit fey. Our clairvoyant senses will be heightened. (It will be subtle but it will be there.) Because of this, it’s important to be attentive and listen to that “little voice in your head”. Don’t discount your ability to sense things that are not based on analysis because we receive information in many ways. This is the perfect time to ponder the wisdom of Albert Einstein, who was a Pisces. He said: “Imagination is everything. It’s a preview of life’s coming attractions.” He also said, “Once you can accept the universe as matter expanding into nothing – that is something; wearing stripes with plaids comes easy.” (Einstein never saw spandex.)

Aries (March 21-April 19)

In All Signs above, I mention we will feel otherworldly and that our clairvoyant powers will be stronger in the next several weeks. This applies to you even more so! Therefore, respect your “Spidey sense” because messages from the universe through ideas, intuitions and dreams will be floating through your mind and your sensory perceptions. Make a mental note of any conclusions you may come to or important ideas because these might be a clue for your future. Meanwhile, your interactions with friends, groups and organizations will be vigourous and successful. People welcome your input. (A flirtation with a friend is possible.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You’re entering a popular four weeks ahead – no question. Quite likely, many of you will be more involved with younger people than usual. You might also take on a leadership role in a club or an organization. This same window of time is a good opportunity for you to share your hopes and dreams for the future with someone to get their feedback. This could be helpful for you. It’s tough to operate in a vacuum. Feedback can be reassuring and confidence building. Fortunately, your ambition is strong now and will stay that way for the next several weeks. Furthermore, authority figures will look kindly on you. (So kindly that some of you will begin a romance with a boss.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

It’s important to know when an opportunity is available to you. So often we don’t know this. It’s like having a valuable diamond hidden in your home but you don’t know it. Obviously, it will do you no good. For the next four weeks (and this happens only once a year), the Sun is sitting at the top of your chart, symbolically casting you in a spotlight that is flattering to you. This means others, especially bosses and people in authority will admire you. They see you as competent, capable and effective (even if you don’t do anything different). Hello? This is an advantage! It means now is the time to advance your cause or make your pitch because the odds are with you. Ya think?

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You will feel a strong urge to travel or do something different in the next few weeks. If you can travel – great. If you can’t travel, you can still do something to create a sense of adventure and greater stimulation in your life. Be a tourist in your own neighbourhood. Go places you’ve never been before. Visit stores, museums, parks, galleries as well as the theatre, bowling alleys, pubs and give yourself a new experience. You will also enjoy increasing your knowledge through books or film. Some of you might learn new things by talking to people from other backgrounds. Make the most of this chance to enrich your experience of your world!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Life has some challenges for you now with Mars opposite your sign. For example, relations with friends and partners might be a bit testy. Nevertheless, right now, Jupiter is at the top of your chart (which occurs only once every 12 years) and this boosts your reputation in the eyes of others. You look successful! For the next few weeks, your focus on inheritances, wills, shared property, insurance issues and taxes will be stronger. Now is the time to sort out these details and get on top of whatever can affect your wealth directly or indirectly. Fortunately, Venus will enrich your closest relationships, which is like a little gift coming your way.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

For the next four weeks, the Sun is opposite your sign, and because the Sun represents energy, and it is now as far away from you as it can get all year (in your chart) — this means your energy will be flagging. You will need more sleep. However, this polarized position of the Sun will also give you greater objectivity to see your role in your closest relationships and partnerships. This is an advantage! You will see ways to improve these relations. (Obviously, you can only change your behaviour – not the behaviour of others.) Meanwhile, you’re keen to work; and luckily, coworkers will be supportive, which can make all the difference.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Starting this week, you’re gung-ho to be productive. You want to work hard to get as much done as possible. Furthermore, you want your actions to count, which is why you want to work effectively and efficiently. And you will do this, which means it will be easier than usual for you to accomplish a lot. Believe that you have this ability! However, it’s not all work and no play. Oh no. Venus and Mars want you to grab opportunities to schmooze and enjoy sports events, the arts, the theatre, the entertainment world and fun times with others, including playful activities with children. It’s time to work hard and party hard!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

It’s going to be play city for your sign for the next four weeks. Grab something sexy and exciting to wear. Accept all invitations to party and schmooze with others. Enjoy social outings and fun times with friends as well as playful times with kids. Sports and the arts will particularly appeal. This is the perfect time for a vacation. Meanwhile, many of you will also make improvements on the home front and beautify where you live through redecorating projects or buying something attractive for your home. You will also enjoy entertaining at home in the next few weeks. Live it up!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Home, family and your private life will become your primary focus in the next four weeks. In fact, many of you will be involved more than usual with a parent. This is also the perfect time to tackle home repairs and DIY projects because you want to create a solid base that you can count on for yourself and your family in the future. Daily interactions with neighbours, siblings and relatives will be positive because you will appreciate the affection and love that exists all around you. Be careful because you might come on like gangbusters with Mars in your House of Communications. (Great for sales, teaching and acting.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The pace of your days will accelerate in the next four weeks because suddenly, you have a busy agenda! Your schedule is full of errands and appointments. In addition, you might see neighbours, relatives and siblings more than usual. Plus, many of you are reading, writing and studying more as well. All of this adds up to a busy pace that will be stimulating and exciting! Quite likely, you will shop more than usual, especially for beautiful things for yourself and favourite people. (Fun little gifts.) Fortunately, you have the motivation to work hard to boost your earnings. A winning combination!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Without question, your focus will be on money, earnings, cash flow and also your possessions and assets in the next four weeks. You might be thinking of changing jobs? You might be thinking of how to boost your earnings? You certainly will have moneymaking ideas. This is the time for you to act if you’re thinking of checking out new ways to earn money because several reasons are present, which will help in your success. It is totally appropriate for you to do this right now because fair Venus in your own sign makes you look very attractive to others; and fiery Mars in your sign as well will make you appear proactive, decisive and confident. Therefore, if this is something you’re thinking of doing – do it in the next four to six weeks. Definitely.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Well, it’s all about you, dear Pisces because the Sun is in your sign now for the next four weeks, giving you a chance to replenish and recharge yourself for the rest of the year. This will build your confidence, and it will also attract people and favourable situations to you. Furthermore, Mercury in your sign will make you eager to share your ideas with others and talk to people about what you want and what interests you. Fortunately, with lucky Jupiter in your House of Communications, you are positive thinking and upbeat! Admittedly, Venus and Mars are hiding in your chart, promoting secret activities – among them, secret love affairs. This might also mean that someone out there does not have your best interests at heart. So, if you’re in a situation and you suspect something fishy is going on – it is. Trust your Spidey sense.

Spell For – Creativity

Creativity

Clean Up’ Creativity Mix:

This mix is intended to soothe one during and draw one through a period of professional and/or creative struggle; to boost recovery of mental stability and creativity, it’s meant to help one regain one’s creative confidence.

Ingredients (choose from what you may have available; the more the better!):

  • chamomile: reduce anxiety
  • bergamot (Earl Grey tea): confidence booster
  • ginger: courage
  • barley: stamina, creativity
  • cloves: comfort, prosperity; helps to achieve goals
  • basil: creativity, success; promotes emotional/mental soothing
  • beans: wish magic
  • bay leaf: luck
  • marjoram: luck, ease for heartbreak
  • pyrite: prosperity
  • quartz: cleansing, absorbing negativity
  • orange peel: luck and energy, successful relationships
  • coffee beans: energy, lethargy-breaker
  • decorative items for focus; in my case, green ribbon and fresh water pearl beads to draw prosperity
  • attractive, clean, clear glass bottle, commonly available at craft stores; an empty jam jar will work just as well!

Drop the following mix into a bottle in attractive layers; keep in mind that smaller spices, such as finely ground herbs like basil and orange peel, will sink to the bottom, as will heavier items such as crystals. Larger, lighter items like chopped cinnamon and dried beans will hold their place and “float” atop smaller or more dense layers.

Once you’ve filled your bottle, decorate it in a way that speaks to YOU of what you’re trying to accomplish; in my case, green ribbon and green leaf beads spoke of prosperity and fertility, while pearl beads reminded me of the triumph of creativity through difficulty. Place the bottle in an area you’ll see it while you’re working. Because the mix is a fragrant one, don’t hesitate to handle the bottle and smell the herbal mixture: it may just give you the energizing, creative spark you need!

Healing Spell

Feeling under the weather? There’s a spell for that and the best part is, all you need is an open mind and positive outlook. You can heal yourself.

How to Perform It:

You’ll just need your hands for this one and a positive mindset. It’s very important that you clear your mind and ask the universe for it’s healing properties.

Take your hands and place them on your body where you need healing energy. This is similar to Reiki. Focus and imagine the universe’s loving energy flowing into your body delivering that healing.

This ecosystem is neither entirely good nor entirely bad, which is why this Ogham and the rest of the Forfedha (Oir, Uilleand, Phagos, and Mor) are too complex to be read as well or ill-dignified. Koad is one particular harmony/dissonance at this point in your life. If your life is going well in some respects, this could mean a feeling of competence and capability or a feeling of love and being loved. If you are in a time of stress, Koad may represent the s**tstorm whirling around you. Or all of the above could be going on at once.
You are here to learn a certain set of unique lessons in this lifetime. There are many roads you can take any given day, and like one of those old Choose Your Own Adventure books, each road has its own outcome. Sometimes two seemingly different roads have the same outcome. Koad indicates a feeling of responsibility and ownership of your decisions, however, other factors you cannot control should be taken into account as well, such as family history, social norms, laws, and the era in which you dwell.

Many people do not realize that orchestral symphonies are major works that are frequently an hour in length. A symphony is an elaborate ABA form (think Twinkle Twinkle Little Star on steroids) with mini-breaks between three sections. If your life is a symphony, imagine Koad as one moment in one measure of a huge programmatic work of music. What harmony have you achieved? Are you in a slow or fast movement?

Hexagram Fifty – Two/52

Kên / The Mountain

Above this Mountain’s summit another more majestic rises:
The Superior Person is mindful to keep his thoughts in the here and now.

Stilling the sensations of the Ego, he roams his courtyard without moving a muscle, unencumbered by the fears and desires of his fellows.
This is no mistake.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

There is a higher vantage point available to you, but it is obscured by the visible peak of personal ambition.
To climb to this higher plane, you must shake off the desires and fears of the conscious, visible world around you.
To make this journey you must quiet the Ego, empty your mind of past and future, and dwell totally in the moment at hand.
Thorough mindfulness of what is before you is the only tranquility.
Be. Here. Now.

All Signs

It’s Valentines Day on Wednesday. Last year, Valentine’s Day was challenging and I suggested celebrating it later in the week. This year, it might be dicey in the morning, but later, things will get warm and cozy. (Warm and cozy is what we want.) However, the truth of the matter is that the beginning of the week, on Monday and Tuesday is when the vibes will be the sweetest and most amorous. Later in the week, there will be people who want to take control of everything. Downright pushy. Do yourself a favour and avoid them if you can. In the meantime, the wise will ponder this:

Roses are red.

The grass is green.

Take me to Valentine’s dinner,

Or I’ll make a scene!

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This week both Venus and Mars move in to your House of Friendships to join the Sun, Mercury and Pluto. This gathering of planets will definitely boost your desire to schmooze with friends. It will also encourage you to interact with clubs, groups, organizations, conferences and conventions. Oh yes, you’ll be out there flying your colours! There might be a particular event that will amplify your competitive nature. You’ll enjoy hanging out with younger people as well as creative and artistic types. This is an unusual emphasis in this one area of your chart so make the most of this. You will shine with your friends. You will also be a natural leader in any group activity. Don’t leave home without your megaphone.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This week is unusual because you literally have a gaggle of planets at the very top of your chart. What this will do, among other things, is arouse your ambition as never before! You’ll be determined to do what you set out to do and nothing will stop you. Fortunately, because the Sun is also at the top of your chart, casting you in a flattering spotlight, people will make way for you. They will admire you and very likely, they will not oppose you. Of course, because Mars and Pluto are lined up at the top of your chart as well, you’re coming on like gangbusters! Actually, this is an unusual influence so while you have this advantage – use it. Go after what you want!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You will have the wanderlust this week because five planets will meet in a part of your chart that makes you want to explore the world to broaden your horizons. If you can’t travel, then be a tourist in your own neighbourhood. But do something different! Make an effort to study and learn new things. Meet people from different backgrounds and other cultures. Meanwhile, medical matters, as well as legal situations, might come to a head. You might be challenged, but you will very likely end up with a favourable outcome. This is also a good time to explore opportunities in higher education, publishing and the media. Make hay while the Sun shines!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This continues to be a popular time for you; nevertheless, this week you can’t ignore a strong influence that is taking place in one of your Money Houses (And why would you ignore it?) This Money House (you have two Money Houses) is the one that deals with the money and wealth you share with others, including debt. This blast of energy will mean you have a strong focus now and possible disputes about debt, insurance issues, inheritances and anything to do with shared property. Despite the possibility of disputes, the presence of other planets indicates that difficulties will likely be settled in your favour. Yes, take the money and run!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

It’s unusual, but this week there are five planets sitting opposite your sign, which means they are in your House of Partnerships and Marriage. Obviously, your focus on close friends and partners will be strong! Because Mars is lined up with Pluto, these dynamics will be powerful. You might attract someone to you who wants to take charge of the situation. Fortunately, Mercury, Venus and the Sun will soften things, and encourage discussion, compromise and genial compatibility. Meanwhile, you’re a romantic; so hopefully, you’ll be pleased with Valentine’s Day. If you’re on your own –treat yourself! You’re worth it.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

It pleases you if you can be useful and productive. Of course, you like to relax and party as much as anyone else; but personally, you have high standards for yourself. You like to make things happen. Furthermore, you like to get them done in an efficient way so that you can feel proud of your efforts. This week you’ll have no trouble doing that because five planets have gathered in your House of Employment, which will activate your desire to be as productive as possible. You might be a bit bossy about giving orders and delegating to others; nevertheless, people will help you. Discussions about work, as well as health issues, and even your pet will take place.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

It’s play city for your sign this week! Lucky Librans might be too busy to read this column because they’re off on an exciting vacation somewhere. In any case, you will enjoy schmoozing with others, especially on romantic outings. The arts and the entertainment world will appeal. Meet friends for dinner, for lunch or for Happy Hour. Sports events and fun activities with kids will also be great choices. This is an excellent time for romance, especially at the beginning of the week, so keep your eyes open. New romance might blossom, and existing relationships will be cozy and supportive. This is also a strong week to work in the arts or in any creative project that interests you.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Without question, this week is all about home, family and your private life. You might be more involved than usual with a parent. Family discussions will definitely take place, in part because you are redecorating and making improvements and repairs to where you live. For some reason, increased activity and chaos on the home front will require your attention. In fact, expect a few intense discussions with family members, as people debate certain issues and each party wants their own way. Nevertheless, your wishes will likely prevail because you’re holding all the cards. And let’s face it, not only that – you’re a Scorpio. “Don’t mess with the kid.”

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a fast-paced, energetic week for you – just the way you like it. Get out and travel if you can. You will certainly love some short trips. Conversations with siblings, relatives and neighbours will delight. Your ability to communicate will be excellent, which is good news for those of you who write, act, teach or sell. This same strong astrological influence will help you learn, which is why this is the perfect time to take a course or study something. This makes sense because this year you can truly improve your job or get a better job. Let us not forget, you can also improve your health. Go team go!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You like status and respect; and you know that sometimes money can help to create this. (Not always.) No doubt this will encourage you this week when five planets are sitting in your Money House of earnings and personal wealth. Trust your moneymaking ideas. Be open to opportunities that come your way that could mean a raise or even a better-paying job. Not only are you alert to these possibilities but you will be proactive about going after them. Good stuff! Possibly, this strong emphasis on money and cash flow means you’re spending big and making ambitious purchases. Or maybe you’re doing both? Ka-ching!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Holy Moly! This week there are five planets in your sign: the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto. (Yeah, yeah, astrologers are lazy and we call the Sun a planet.) To put it mildly, this certainly means it’s all about you. The Sun, Mars and Pluto will make you energized, dynamic, focused and intent about going after what you want. Mercury will encourage you to be talkative, convincing and persuasive; and fair Venus will make you charming and diplomatic. Oh yes! An amazing and fortunate combination that favours you in a most unusual way. Therefore, if there’s something that you want to achieve or you want to make work for you – go after it! It will never be as easy as it is right now.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

In some ways, the world is stealing your thunder right now because a strong handful of planets is actually hidden in your chart. Ah well, it is what it is. On one hand, this certainly means that whatever work you do quietly, by yourself, or behind the scenes might have enormous consequences of which many will not be aware. You might make amazing deals “behind closed doors.” You’re like a swan gliding gently along the water while your feet are furiously paddling unseen. Naturally, this means if you have to do something that is supposed to be “hidden” or is yet to be announced – then you have the advantage! (Good news for spies and those who work in intelligence.) More likely, this means that many of you might be indulging in love affairs and secret trysts.

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. This phase is best viewed just before the sunrise in the western sky. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

Four Of Wands

The Four of Wands card describe a couple dancing under a wreath hanging among four sticks. This wreath is similar to the kind that used in traditional Jewish ceremonies and therefore, it represents the time spent completing work and the satisfaction with achieving a goal. Surrounding them is a group of people, and behind them is a large castle which is also decorated with flowers. It seems to be a celebration, an opportunity to return home or a celebration from within the castle.

Phagos

Teaching, education, mastery, virtuosity, legacy

Tree: Beech (Fagus spp.)

Letter: Ph or F

Phagos is a reminder of the mental discipline it takes in the process of acquiring knowledge. When you get to the point of knowing a subject so well, you can teach it effortlessly, then you have mastered the subject on the mental plane, which reverberates through the other planes. Saturated knowledge is knowing a thing inside and out. Those who believe in reincarnation believe this is the kind of knowledge that does not go away when you shed one mortal body for the next one: for instance, a skilled midwife will stand a good chance of coming back as a competent ob/gyn who stumbles upon their talent in a seemingly random way. Or a lute player may be reborn and pick up the guitar at age twelve and learn it faster than any other kid in their class because of knowledge picked up in past lifetimes.

Hexagram Twenty-Four/24

Name: Fu.

Keyphrase: Turning point.

Formed By The Trigrams: Earth over Thunder.

General: If matters are progressing and showing steady improvement then there is no need to push them.

Love: New romance will be rekindled in your life.

Business: The next few months will show a steady improvement of your business.

Personal: It is a good time to plan for the future.

Overview: Fu relates to a gradual improvement over time. It is a very natural progress and will occur without any effort on your part. In some ways the progress is unstoppable. However, you should not make any attempt to force the issue and hurry it along. Let it take its own course and time. Treat this new beginning with care and do not make the mistake of handling it roughly by trying to force it.

Six

If your life path number is 6, you are someone who thinks, speaks and acts from the heart. You are sincere, loving, warm and affectionate. It would serve you to find a job where you can bring and apply these wonderful qualities, such as a kindergarten teacher, pediatrician, social worker, or a therapist. You are made for long-term relationships and family life. Shallow pursuits and one-night stands aren’t your thing. When you touch someone, it’s real. But because you are too focused on the relational aspects of your life, you may end up bringing those people who don’t care as much as you do, into your life. If the digits of a date add up to number 6, it’s a wonderful time to create love! Work on a universal theme, help poor communities in distant places or the homeless on your block. It’s the best time to be there for other people.

One Hundred Eleven

Number 111 means that energy gate is opened and your thoughts are materializing so quickly right now. Choose carefully your thoughts at this time. They need to be in harmony with your wishes and desires. Give absolutely no energy to fears, otherwise they can become reality and get fulfilled quicker than you thought.

Sun Stone Physical Energy

You will need the following items for this spell:

Sun stone

Casting Instructions

Take a piece of sunstone to an eastern windowsill at sunrise

alternatively, place the stone outside in the East where it can absorb

the rays of the morning Sun. Offer the stone to the Sun and chant:

 “Flaming Orb of rising power

Add vital energy hour by hour

To this stone with flecks of gold

Give it Your power, great and bold,

And when the light of day is through

And with your zest this stone is imbued, It shall come back home to me

To impart Your zestful energy.”

Leave the stone absorb the energy of the rising Sun, but don’t retrieve it until sundown this gives the energy time to ‘settle’ in the stone. Carry the sunstone with you.

All Signs

This week offers infinite possibilities of change. You might change your daily routine. You might change your job, or your residence. You might change a romantic partner, or attract a new romance, especially midweek! This is because our wishful thinking is lined up with a vortex of energy that will make some dreams come true. It’s possible this requires a new way of “seeing” things. Especially what you expect for yourself. We know that when we change the way we see things, the things we see change. In the same way that language can limit our choices, many unrealized dreams are eclipsed by fear and lack of imagination. Remember Dumbo’s magic feather? “Saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band, saw a needle that winked its eye. But I think I will have seen everything when I see an elephant fly.”

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is a popular week for you! You might have a position of leadership in an organization or a group. You will definitely have busy discussions with others, especially younger people. Do be aware that this is the perfect week to share your hopes and dreams for the future with someone because their feedback might help you. Run your ideas up the flagpole because whatever feedback you get will be critical to your success. This week, your plans to accomplish something now or in the future are predicated on whether or not you believe it’s possible. Remember, it wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark. Think big!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You have an advantage over all the other signs if you want to achieve your dreams right now. The fact is that the Sun is at the top of your chart, which casts you in an imaginary “spotlight,” which is flattering! This means others are impressed with you and have respect and faith in you even if you don’t do anything different. Meanwhile, you might have longed-for ideas about travel plans, dealing with foreign countries, issues related to publishing, medicine and the law or anything to do with higher education and getting training or teaching. It’s important for you to believe that your dreams are achievable. Knock on the door.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Plans to travel or do something to expand your world fill your thoughts. These plans might include publishing, the media or something to do with higher education. They might also relate to medical or legal matters. Whatever the case, if you need to attract the financial support or the practical support of a partner or third party in order to make your dreams come true – this is a strong possibility this week. Look for ways to support what it is that you want to do. After all, lucky Jupiter enters your sign this year for the first time in 12 years, which means good fortune is coming your way! This is your chance to go for the gold!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

It’s not surprising that you’re focused on financial matters related to taxes, debt and insurance issues. You might also be thinking a lot about inheritances, shared property or how to divide or share something. As you ponder these issues, it’s important to know that this week, you can get practical or financial assistance and help from another source — perhaps a close friend, partner or even an organization or business. The key is to believe that you can get this help. Obviously, you’ll have to ask for it. If you’re turned down, you’re no worse off than you are right now. But this week has magical possibilities for all of us! Reach out for assistance. See what happens.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Your focus on close friends and partners is strong. Fortunately, you have more objectivity to see these relationships, which in turn, gives you the insight and awareness about how to improve them. (Obviously, the improvements will be based on your own choices and behaviour because you can’t expect the other person to change.) Meanwhile, in another part of the forest, all kinds of possibilities related to your job or your health might offer radical changes this week. You might see that something is doable because you learned about it for the first time, or you have more information about it. The key is to believe that it’s possible! The rest is up to you.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You’re still in work mode, which is why you’re giving everything your best shot. It’s also why you want to be efficient and effective in everything you do. You want your actions to count, which is why you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and get the job done. Nevertheless, it’s important to know that romantic possibilities abound for your sign this week! Oh yes! It’s glass slipper time! Don’t be afraid to dream the impossible. Make the first move. At least, smile a little or flirt. Existing romantic relationships can also feel recharged in an exciting way. Think positive! Remember Richard Bach: “Argue for your limitations and they’re yours.”

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a playful time for you, which is why many of you are socializing more than usual. You might also enjoy sports events and fun activities with kids. You will certainly enjoy a vacation! Nevertheless, be aware that exciting changes related to romance are possible this week. New romance, especially midweek, is a definite promise for many of you. Think positive and keep your eyes open! Be friendly. Be receptive. Meanwhile, some of you will bring about changes within your family dynamic or your home — perhaps something that you’ve always wanted to do? These changes might be something you thought were impossible; but now it appears they might be a reality. Good luck!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is an interesting week for you. For starters, home, family and your private life are your primary focus. In fact, many of you might be dealing with a parent more than usual. Family discussions and home repairs will take up some of your time. However, perhaps more than any other sign, you have the ability now to make some wishes come true! If you focus strongly or believe in something that you want to achieve, and make the effort to do so, your chances for success will be excellent. Yes, this sounds like clap your hands if you believe in fairies. But this kind of astrological influence is actually at play for you in your chart this week.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You have a full schedule of errands, tasks, increased reading, writing and studying as well as visits with friends, siblings, neighbours and relatives. Yes, you’re busy! Some of you are also learning and studying as well as teaching. Despite all that is going on, it’s good for you to take a beat and think about your finances and cash flow. You might also consider your belongings and everything you own. This is because it might be possible for you to change your financial status, or wealth, or assets by acting on a wish that you have. You might have had this wish before but you doubted it would come true. Why not try it?

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Your focus on earnings and cash flow continues this week. In fact, some of you might have excellent moneymaking ideas or you might see ways to boost your income. However, an unusual influence is present in your chart this week that will make you more perceptive than usual, particularly to the needs of others. You will feel fulfilled if you can help friends or family who are in a pinch or suffering in some way. You might also seek time to meditate or pursue self-care. Some of you might be more interested in psychic phenomena and occult literature because you’re in touch with your imagination and realm of possibilities. Don’t hesitate to act on some of your wishes because they might materialize.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You are an idealistic sign, especially when it comes to helping friends or working to improve society and this global village we call planet Earth. Therefore, it’s important to know that you are particularly strong now because the Sun, Mercury and Pluto are in your sign. When you speak, you’re convincing! Others will listen to you. Meanwhile, a particular astrological influence is present this week that means you might work behind the scenes to benefit someone or to benefit a group. There’s no question that your idealism is aroused and you want to make a difference. This is also a strong time for a hidden romance, especially midweek. You might meet someone. Anything could happen. Keep an open mind to all kinds of new possibilities.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This week you prefer to be private and play things low-key. Nevertheless, you might be pulled out of your personal space if you have an opportunity to help someone. Or you might work on behalf of a charitable organization or a group that provides aid to people who are less fortunate or in trouble. If you see an opportunity to do this, you will definitely act because you will have a genuine concern for the welfare of others. However, you might also use this same influence in a creative, artistic way. You might work with a theatrical group or the entertainment world by using your imagination.
