Week of: Mar. 4 – 10
Aries [3/23-4/20]: In the middle of the week, you feel a little bump. This isn’t a bad thing at all, no, what this feeling is an outward manifestation of power, a desire to help achieve a more nurturing and stable environment for yourself. And yes, there is a degree of raw energy associated with this feeling, too. So much for the good news. You have big changes staring you in the face this week, are you willing to deal with the emotions which are motivating you? If you’re not, there are going to be some serious ramifications. Get ready for a fast ride in the boat which crosses the inland sea of emotions. Then we’ll talk fishing.
Taurus [4/21-5/22]: If nothing else is happening in your astrology chart, and I mean nothing else, then you are fortunate because Venus brings her lovely self to make you happy. The downside is that, being the good Taurus soul that you are, you would much rather avoid doing thing with all this beneficial energy. That’s not the way things should go. You are on the edge of some mighty big changes for yourself, hopefully, a little bit of self realization is occurring. Take a moment to stop and contemplate the nature of the universe, and just exactly how you fit in the grand scheme of things. This is a great week; make the most of it.
Gemini [5/23-6/21]: Poor, maligned, and much misunderstood Gemini! No one seems to understand the nature of your plight, now do they? The usual astrologer would tell that it is a good time for looking into investments and making money through work. Little platitudes like, “It’s a good time for seeking investment back now-talk to your broker….” C’mon, that’s lame. Act like a Robber Baron, or better yet, act like a Highway Robber this week. Just be warned, the English weren’t too nice to the Highway Robbers who got caught. My advice? Don’t look back over your shoulder.
Cancer [6/22-7/22]: Come on out of that shell for a little while. Me and the other fisher people (that’s the PC term for fishermen) are going to be sitting around, boosting a few, and telling improbable stories about great conquests at the fishing pole. Okay, so what we will really probably talk about it is the legendary “one that got away.” All we’re trying to do is get you out of your house long enough to join us. If there’s a party, consider it. You’ve been isolated with nothing but work for too long.
Leo [7/23-8/23]: This is the last vestiges of the romance urge for a little while. Then it is one to more serious endeavors. In the meantime, enjoy this quiet moment to reflect on what you want in a mate, and what you have to offer: stability, grandeur, love, they can kiss your boots…. the list goes on. What is happening is that other signs are feeling rather uncomfortable right now. You should rest assured that your own sign is in for a period of a degree of stability which is long awaited. Maybe stability is the the wrong choice of words, but this week looks like a fun in a good way.
Virgo [8/24-9/23]: I love most Virgo’s, I really do. It’s just that occasionally, a Virgo will get that look on his or her face, and you just know that there is something wrong with the Virgo world view. It’s as if reality has an awful smell to it. The Virgo turns his or her nose up at that smell while the rest of us make our way through, oblivious to the fact that there is something upsetting the poor old Virgo. if only the Virgo would tell what was wrong, then maybe we could help…. The things that Virog’s find so obvious aren’t always clear to the the rest of us. Do you get my picture?
Libra [9/24-10/23]: Remember January? Remember December? Rather than trying to make this some sort of reminiscent journey, let me just explain: In those months, there were certain, at the risk of sounding too cosmic, lessons to be learned. Did you learn what you were supposed to at that time? Did you try the easy way out instead of doing what was right? If you took the harder, lonelier, more correct route then, you wouldn’t be in this mess right now. Oh well, now is the time to clean it up.
Scorpio [10/24-11/23]: You Scorpio’s are feeling just about fine right now. And you are going to continue feeling just about fine for the next week. Actually, this might last longer being a such a long term influence, but for the moment (can a Scorpio ever live in the moment?) things are going along “swimmingly” well. In fact, the waters are so calm and the way the world is treating is so good that you know there is something amiss here. It just won’t rear it’s ugly little head above those calm waters this week. That you have to look forward to.
Sagittarius [11/24-12/21]: That master of entertainment, Pluto (okay, so his real name is Lord of the Underworld) is starting to backtrack just a little bit which means that some of the more difficult changes you have been presented with in the last few weeks are over. Well, maybe they’re not over yet, but you ignore them for a while. Like so many other persistent Pluto problems, the changes which this small planet has evoked will not go away. What is happening, though, is you can sit back and laugh at some of the effects of this small, insignificant planet right now. That’s why we call him a master of ceremonies.
Capricorn [12/22-1/20]: Well, dear Capricorn friend, of all the oddball luck I’ve ever seen in the sky: you have a tenuous romance headed your way. Look, if you already happy with that special someone in your life, then okay-fine, leave this one alone. But if you are doing a little seeking, it looks as if your seeking will finally hit some pay dirt. Or payoff. Or you will earn a degree of happiness. Now then, you knew there would be a caveat, too, didn’t you? The problem is this: the word “tenuous.” That’s the challenge presented by commencing on a relationship at this time. Of course, if it was all too easy, you might balk, so the universe is doing its dead-level best to comply with your wishes.
Aquarius [1/21-2/18]: I haven’t heard from too many Aquarius’s who are actually getting married and therefore, I’m beginning to doubt what this book told me about certain planets and relationships. According to my research, just about every Water Bearing member ought to be happily involved with that someone special right about now. Perhaps there are one or two f you who are having a hard time finding the right person, but I haven’t heard from near enough happy couples. What wrong with you guys? No romance? Or, just not communicating?
Pisces [2/19-3/22]: After what seems like an intolerable period of time, you have finally hit a degree of peace. Not quite but almost. And after the last few weeks, this degree of peace is beast exemplified by something Ulysses says in one of his monologues in Shakespeare’s Troilus and Cressida: “Take but degree away, untune that string,/And hark what discord follows.” (I.iii.109-10) No untuning this week. Please.
