For All Signs From now until the end of this year we have a Chironic theme, among others, in our zodiac. Chiron is one of the lesser known gods of mythology. He was born from the union of Chronos (Saturn) and Philyra, and his physical form was that of a centaur, half man-half horse. He was rejected by both parents and had to make his way in the world alone. Because of his early psychic wounding he became the caretaker/teacher for the homeless. Chiron is reported to be the first astrologer and his gift to others was to mentor rejected beings. He identified the strongest skills and assisted each disciple to hone his/her talents to the highest degree. Ultimately Chiron became respected, even applauded, among his peers. In these times it behooves us to be mindful of Chiron’s generosity. We are asked by the cosmos to emulate his spirit, to take in the lost ones and help them find their places in life.
Aries A relationship that began in the fall of 2000 now comes to a turning point. The crux of the matter may be related to intimacy (whether sexual or not) or to issues of shared resources. You are more than a little bit aware of debt or debtors at this time and need to generate a clear plan for compensation.
Taurus There is likely to be an issue with a significant other early in the week concerning shared resources (finances, time, energy, or sexuality). It harkens back to an old psychological injury and you are inclined to take it more seriously than is appropriate. Be still and give it a few days for thought. You likely will find a solution to the current dilemma with a heart to heart talk.
Gemini So much of that which needs to be done this week depends upon the cooperation of others. Your normal routine of daily living meets interferences and detours and everything takes longer than you expect. So adopt a flexible attitude and have patience with those things that you cannot control. This is a short cycle. Relax and remember your sense of humor.
Cancer Changes in the work department weigh heavily upon you. You know you are ready to move on to new things, but the timing is not working out smoothly. So one foot is in the new door while the other is still standing in the old place. You won’t remain bound forever. The situation begins to improve through the winter.
Leo You may feel blocked from accomplishing what you need/want to do on the material plane. Now is the time to focus attention on your Faith, by whatever name you call it. There are interferences in your practical world, but they are temporary and do not need to have the focus of your attention. They will vanish eventually, whether you struggle now or not.
Virgo Work is a zoo. You are inundated with deadlines, yet you can’t quite finish anything because of circumstances beyond your control. Relax. It isn’t your “fault” and it will all work out in due time. Don’t allow the Critic to take control of your frame of mind. Meanwhile, there are favorable aspects related to social life that you could enjoy. No harm in that.
Libra You may encounter interference if you are dealing with issues of travel, the law, education and/or church activities. Somehow you cannot yet make decisions in these areas. Meanwhile there are favorable influences in the territory of income and career, with a bonus for your reputation.
Scorpio Your energy is high this week, almost out of range for the intense Scorpio temperament. You have a need to rework or improve your home environment, to clear space or do whatever is needed in order to make your daily life more productive. You may have more than the usual number of dealings with members of your family of origin.
Sagittarius This period could only be described as “odd” in your life. You have “guardian” help, which is probably in human form, bringing fortunate meetings and assistance from those in the background. However, certain directions are clearly closed to you for the time being. Consider the shut doorways to be signals, because there are other, open options to choose.
Capricorn Though you are of the mind to get on with your projects, those who could assist you are somehow unavailable at this time. It would be easy to become a critic, but you know there is little productive outcome from this attitude. Concentrate, instead, upon those things you can manage on your own.
Aquarius Messages, memos, phone calls, and other communiques are flying in staccato rhythm this week. You may feel pressured to make quick decisions, but you can take charge of this if you wish and insist upon enough time to think effectively. Take some time to sit quietly, take a deep breath, and avoid reacting to the anxiety around you.
Pisces The Fish have more than one favorable aspect this week. Love and social life takes a turn for the better. Relationships with children are positive. Activities related to travel, education, and legal interests offer benefits that are accrued from past efforts. Take some time to play. You deserve it.
