The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a  Waning Crescent phase. 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. This phase is best viewed an hour or 2 before the sunrise and can be quite beautiful if you’re willing to get up early. 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.

We can expect a week of entertaining delights, pleasure-filled moments, fun outings, the enjoyment of the company of others, new love, passionate romance, parties, fine dinners, long lunches, dancing at pubs, exciting sports events, picnics, yummy beach hampers, backyard barbecues, pool parties and delightful times spent with kids. It’s a social week and the energy is upbeat! Some of the best date nights of the year exist this week. Grab your glad rags and make plans! Call a friend. A lover. A spouse.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

“You look mahvelous, dahling.” This is the last week, before another year passes, when the Sun is at the top of your chart shining down on you, casting you in a flattering spotlight. This means without doing anything special on your part, you look fabulous to everyone. (It’s smoke and mirrors.) Not only that, Venus is also at the top of your chart promoting any kind of social activities. Venus makes you warm and friendly to everyone. It is a blessing to all kinds of relationships.

This is definitely an exciting, pleasure-filled week!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is an exciting week for you because both the Sun and fair Venus are in the part of your chart that is your “home.” This is why you want to explore new vistas. It’s why you want to travel and get outta Dodge. It’s why you want to seek adventure and meet new and exciting people. You want it all! Therefore, accept all invitations to travel – definitely! Because you are also working hard right now as well, some of you might combine work-related travel and pleasure. Socialize with people from other countries and different cultures because this will be stimulating for you. Meanwhile, communications with others are important. You’ve got plans!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You are a passionate sign and this is a passionate week. Therefore, all your relations will have a greater intensity this week, especially love relationships. Romance will be very affectionate and meaningful. Everything will have significance. (“We were meant to be!”) New love that begins now will be powerful and have a great impact on your life. Meanwhile, if possible, you want to travel and explore new ideas. You want to learn new things and discuss profundity with others. You will also derive much enjoyment out of studying something new and acquiring new knowledge. “What we learn with pleasure we never forget.”

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a social time for you because many of you are caught up in Leo birthdays. (Leo is the sign on your House of Marriage.) Furthermore, with fair Venus opposite your sign now, relations with others are warm, friendly and excellent. (Even relations with your enemies will be better.) Plus, Mars is in a playful part of your chart urging you to have fun! Competitive, physical sports will appeal. Romantic relationships will have less emphasis on candlelit dinners and more focus on sexy gymnastics. You’re energetic and enthused because you have big plans for the future. Naturally, you find it easy to speak your mind and share your original ideas with everyone.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a curious week because despite the fact that you are focused on duties, errands and work (which you certainly are), nevertheless, you are putting fun and pleasure foremost as much as possible. Therefore, attend to all your responsibilities, which will involve work and dedication to achieving what you want to do. (Fortunately, coworkers are friendly and cooperative.) Nevertheless, you will not miss out on the good times and party energy that is all around you. Continue to get organized at home and straighten things out; but grab every opportunity for fun and pleasure! Enjoy good times with others. A word of caution: Always practice safe eating: use condiments.

Tarot Card

The Master – Major Arcana

I. The explanation of The Master Osho Zen

The Master Osho Zen is not a teacher for others, but he is a teacher for himself. Every single word and act he makes, it reflects the enlightenment. He neither has any personal purpose nor desire for anything, but always lets thing happens as it should be – there is nothing to strive for. Even though his surrounding disciples are not always beside him, yet they feel his presence and be inspired by his actions.

In his eyes, disciples could find their truth reflected, and in his silence, they could easily immerse themself in their own silence. The master welcomes his disciples which is not because he wants to lead them, but because he has so much to share. Together, they create a great source of energy that could support each individual in search of their own light.

If you could find such a great teacher, you are very blessed. If not, then keep searching. Let’s learn from the preachers, who will be the teacher and then let’s step forward. Like Buddha, Tathagata said, “let’s go! don’t stop! ”. Keep moving forward! Allow yourself to step out of the earthy striving and seek your highest perspective in all things.

II. The Meaning of The Master Osho Zen

Apart from our minds, there is an intrinsic awareness. It is not something the external world could give you. It is also not an idea – and so far, there is not any research pointed out yet in which a place in our brain will correspond to it. The lofty aim of meditation is to remind us to stay alert to our “mind” and get rid of our own identification with it. That distance is the greatest revolution that can take place in a human.

Now you can perform and act based on what makes you happy, satisfied, pleased, what makes your life become a work of art, a beauty. However, this state only happens if the master inside of you is awake. Right now, he is still asleep. And your mind, as a servant, is playing the part of the teacher. The servant is created by the external world, he submits himself to the world and all the rules attached.

When your awareness becomes a fire, it will burn the whole slavery regime that your mind has created. No happiness is more precious than freedom or becoming a teacher of your own destiny.

Therefore, the master card is all about recognizing the master within us, that we are the leader and creator of our own lives when we view them from a high level, from our higher selves perspective.

Note to parents: be vigilant about your kids because this is an accident-prone day for them. Meanwhile, social plans might change. Guard against sports accidents or upsets. Guard possessions and money as well.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Do what you can to keep the peace at home today because this is a Full-Moon day. It’s hard to please everyone today because you might feel torn between career and family. In addition, sudden changes and family conflicts are likely. Demonstrate grace under pressure.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Pay attention to everything you say and do because this is an accident-prone for your sign. Be scrupulous in everything you do to avoid regrets. Steer clear of controversial disputes with others because these kinds of arguments will be depressing. You don’t need this.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Keep an eye on your money and your possessions today because arguments, disputes, accidents, theft and potential damage might create a situation you regret. Anything could happen. Therefore, be smart and keep your eyes open and take care of what you own.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is an explosive day. For starters, it’s the only Full Moon opposite your sign all year. (This can create tension with partners and close friends.) Meanwhile, in another part of the forest, unpredictable Uranus is challenging your sign. Therefore, be wise and take everything slow and easy. Guard against knee-jerk reactions.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Tension and disputes might take place at work today. You might also encounter travel delays and arguments about touchy subjects, especially politics, religion and racial issues. Tread carefully! Be smart and steer clear of political arguments – at least, for today.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Parents need to be patient with their kids today because this particular Full -Moon energy can be hard to handle when dealing with children. Also be aware of banking issues and changes to shared property. You snooze, you lose. Romance might also likely suffer from today’s Full Moon. Easy does it. Be kind and be patient.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a tricky day dealing with family members, parents, partners and close friends because there’s a lot of explosive energy out there. In part this is due to the Full Moon taking place today. Note: bosses and parents might surprise you.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a tricky day because the Full Moon today is also challenged by the energy of wild, wacky Uranus. Travel plans might change, especially for work-related travel. Avoid controversial subjects when talking to others today because heated arguments might break out. Maintain your cool in all things.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Keep an eye on your money and your possessions today. You might find money; you might lose money. Protect what you own against loss, theft or damage. In addition, be vigilant with your kids. Be aware of where they are and what they’re doing to avoid accidents and regrets.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Well, this is a challenging day for you because today, the only Full Moon in your sign all year is taking place. This can create tension with others. In addition, this energy is impacted by a challenge from unpredictable Uranus. This is an accident-prone day. Keep your head down and your powder dry.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Be accommodating and diplomatic with work colleagues to avoid difficulties and disputes on this Full-Moon day. Likewise, be aware of your own actions and words because this is an accident-prone day for you. Therefore, go slowly and be aware of everything you say and do. Don’t rock the boat.

From MoonGiant.com

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waxing Gibbous phase. This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a Full Moon. The phase lasts about 7 days with the moon becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon. During a Waxing Gibbous the moon rises in the east in mid-afternoon and is high in the eastern sky at sunset. The moon is then visible through most of the night sky setting a few hours before sunrise. The word Gibbous first appeared in the 14th century and has its roots in the Latin word “gibbosus” meaning humpbacked.

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 12:30 PM to 3 PM EDT today (9:30 AM to 12 noon PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Capricorn into Aquarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

As this day begins, you are more public, which means people might be talking about you. They know personal things about your private life. Nevertheless, you feel bold and confident. You’re determined to go ahead with financial decisions and perhaps a major purchase. If so, check the Moon Alert.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Thing are unpredictable today. For example, travel plans could change. Meanwhile, you feel emboldened and confident, which is why you’ll be clear-cut in your relations with other countries or different cultures.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Today you might be focused on taxes, inheritances, debt and shared property. If so, be aware of the restrictions of today’s Moon Alert. Be smart and postpone important purchases or decisions during the alert. Afterwards, you might make travel plans.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You might attract someone to you today who is aggressive or emphatic about what they want. Don’t volunteer for anything or agree to anything important during the Moon Alert. (See above.) Be ready to stand up for yourself and defend your best interests.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You will be clear about what you want when dealing with coworkers today. Likewise, this same sharp focus will be there if you’re dealing with your own health issues or something to do with a pet. However, there is a Moon Alert this morning. Do be aware of this before making decisions.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today you have a lot of energy to lend to work that is related to the entertainment world, the hospitality industry or anything to do with the arts. Likewise, you will have high energy when dealing with children. Refrain from important agreements or volunteering for anything during the Moon Alert. (See above.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Family discussions might include shared property, debt and inheritances today. Very likely, these discussions will be lively and focused. Nevertheless, agree to nothing important during the Moon Alert (see above). You can rely on your own research.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

A discussion with a partner or close friend will be feisty and in your face, today. (Of course, this is nothing you can’t handle.) Nevertheless, don’t waste energy arguing during the Moon Alert because that’s a poor time to agree to anything. Wait until the alert is over before the dust settles.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Today the Moon is travelling through your Money House, which is why you might be involved in financial negotiations or debating an important purchase. If so, make sure that you do this after the Moon Alert is over today. (See above.) Protect your wealth.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today you are clear about what you want and have the energy to follow through. This is because the Moon is in your sign boosted by the energy of fiery Mars. However, for a good part of this day, there is a Moon Alert, which means “do nothing.” Postpone important decisions and don’t shop.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Increased activity and chaos on the home front might be taking place today, even though you choose to keep a low profile, or work alone or behind the scenes. After the Moon Alert is over today (see above), you will be empowered. Wait until then.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You have no trouble sharing your views with others and sticking up for what you believe today. However, the beginning of this day is a Moon Alert. You might as well save your breath. Once the alert is over, you can do meaningful research.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Author Suzanne Collins (1962) shares your birthday today. You have a colourful personality. You value your own freedom of movement as well as financial security. You are an enthusiastic leader who knows how to motivate others. This year is a time of service for you. You might have to put family or someone else first. Therefore, it’s important to take care of yourself.
