DECEMBER 2007 OUTLOOK

Happy Birthday SAGITTARIUS and CAPRICORN Natives!!
        Not only are we ‘decking the halls’, but we are ‘clearing the decks’ for action this month! Several important planetary events are about to occur, just in time for the holiday season!! December 9th is the New Moon in Sagittarius; December 11th Jupiter, (moving through Sagittarius) catches up with Pluto just before it moves into Capricorn in January 2008, bringing you a combination of power and good luck.

        On December 18, Jupiter enters Capricorn, ushering in a new cycle of growth and opportunity. Jupiter is associated with expansion, increase, good luck and optimism. As it moves through the horoscope, it brings benefits and rewards that you have earned. The house in your own personal chart that transiting Jupiter is in pinpoints the area of life in which you are ready to grow or receive your reward. This transit’s effects can range from increasing your weight to enlarging your home or your bank account. When transiting Jupiter touches a natal planet, be careful what you wish for. You just may get it - and big time!! The one pitfall you must avoid is any kind of excess as Jupiter, known as the ‘greater benefic’, gives you lots of what you ask for. But, it also helps you see possibilities you never imagined before it touched your life. New opportunities come along, success seems easier to achieve, wealth is produced by activities that brought nothing before and in general you feel an upswing in confidence and optimism. Because your view of the world is broadened, you’re able to grasp the details of every project you take on, while at the same time understanding its place in the ‘big picture’ of your long-term goals.

        Though the month DOES hold great promise, remember that Mars remains retrograde, which means a little frustration may come your way. Don’t make meaningful mountains out of merely irritating molehills. Instead, use this time to reflect upon how we go about getting our way with others. Are we being too assertive? Are we considering the feelings of those we seek to lead? Do we push others too far, or are we impatient? We now have an opportunity to become aware of where and how we are sabotaging our plans. Once aware, we can change our style. At this time, diplomacy works better than fiery initiative. Remember, you catch more bees with honey than vinegar!! :-) The New Moon on the 9th at 12:40pm at 17°10’ Sagittarius sets the social scene as you go to parties or concerts. When the Full Moon shines on the 23rd at 8:15pm at 1°55’ Gemini many people are emotionally vulnerable and need gentle handling.

November 2007 OUTLOOK

Happy Birthday SCORPIO and SAGITTARIUS Natives!!
        Chilly November brings new opportunities and time to reevaluate the ways in which we initiate actions that involve others. The first day of the month Mercury ends its retrograde period in Libra and communication becomes easier. This is one of the best times of the month to resolve disputes. People will be nicer and more agreeable and reasonable as Venus also moves into Libra on the 8th bringing harmony to all aspects of your life. Thanksgiving festivities should be especially joyful!!

       If you have work to do that calls for physical energy, try to do it early in the month because on November 15 Mars goes retrograde in Cancer and continues in that direction until the end of January. Knowing in advance that this cycle is coming can be empowering. Use the first half of the month to make fresh starts or to present a project or a plan to others. Once Mars goes retrograde on the 15th, we can go back and implement those plans but we won’t be able to proceed with new beginnings. Your energy will be in short supply so listen carefully to your body as you will want to take naps. You will certainly need more rest!!:-) Proceed cautiously and slowly in any matters associated with where you direct your energy. If you use your energy wisely, you can learn valuable lessons in patience, thoroughness, perseverance and organization.

       This is a good time to reflect on our style and prepare for future successes!! With Venus in Virgo the first week of November, everyone wants to be perfect or is looking for perfection, even though this is seldom possible. Instead of complaining or criticizing (which you will be inclined to do), the best strategy is to call attention to people’s good traits and actions. After Venus enters Libra on November 8, you can express tender feelings with grace. Work on strengthening ties.

       On November 11, Mercury moves into Scorpio for three weeks. This is a good time to do research or investigation. Uranus turns direct in Pisces on the 24th after moving retrograde the last five months. WHEW! We have had a chance to gain more awareness of the visions that are important for us to realize in this life time. We have been getting more in touch with the value of the spiritual side of life. Now we have a chance to go forward and put into action some of the dreams that will make us happy! :-) This month’s New Moon occurs on the 9th at 6:04pm at 17°10’ Scorpio so look for new opportunities at this time. The Full Moon occurs on the 24th at 9:30am at 1°55’ Gemini. Lively discussions are sure to take place as we exercise our brains with challenging mental tasks.

OCTOBER 2007 OUTLOOK

Happy Birthday LIBRA and SCORPIO Natives!!
        The energy this month is basically harmonious, and there is a ‘good luck’ aspect waiting for us. That being said, Mercury retrograde starting on the 11th does add some confusion and Venus and Saturn definitely prompt us to be more serious in our social interactions. The Sun in Libra and square Mars may tempt you to respond with emotional upset to the behavior of someone close. Expectations about how other people ought to behave are not likely to work. A better approach is simply to surrender the situation to a higher power and allow ourselves to use the energy in the direction of supporting those activities on our own to give us the inner balance we seek. In other words, take care of yourself this month!! :-) Massages and facials work nicely to accomplish this!

Mercury is retrograde for much of the month, from the 11th to November 1. Although this is an excellent time to reflect on what is really important to us, this is not such a great time for initiating new projects, going off in new, different directions, or for signing contracts. Communications with others may be strained since the energy of the atmosphere actually is supporting reflection and downtime rather than heavy social interaction and moving forward with plans. This is an excellent time to explain something AGAIN so that you don’t feel misunderstood. If you have a question about what someone else said to you, go back and ask for clarification about what they actually meant.

Neptune goes direct in Aquarius on the last day of the month. When Neptune reverses its direction, there are always a few days of confusion surrounding the shift in motion. There may be some turn causing us to reevaluate the value of what a certain friend is still doing in our lives. Venus joins up with Saturn on the 13th (effective until the 21st). You will definitely feel the value of using your social skills in a way that creates practical results. Parties and having fun lead to some practical results that add stability to your lives. The Sun aspects Jupiter most of the month leading to opportunities to work with others in a way that creates a feeling of camaraderie and mutual support.

        This month’s Full Moon occurs on the 26th at 0:51am at 2° Taurus 23’. This month’s New Moon occurs at 17 Libra 30’ on the 11th at 1:01am. A New Moon occurs when the Moon and the Sun are in the same sign at the same degree. This is a time for concentrated energies and new beginnings. The New Moon in Libra is a time to organize and create systems, order, health and routine to your life!

SEPTEMBER 2007 OUTLOOK

Happy Birthday VIRGO and LIBRA Natives!!
        A new school year is beginning, and Saturn is about to teach us some important new lessons!! On September 2 the ringed planet enters Virgo, where it will remain for about three years. The Sun and Mercury are also in Virgo as the month begins. Saturn is the teacher and the taskmaster of the Zodiac and represents form and structure. The rings that surround the planet symbolize the bonds of restraint. They urge you to be responsible and to pursue noble goals and thereby become a better person. If you are in good circumstances appropriate for your time of life, Saturn can stabilize things. If you are not in an appropriate position, changes may occur that are not necessarily pleasant. If you work hard at it you can finally get the point as Saturn often makes us try harder. Saturn in Virgo represents a healthy mind in a healthy body so you will have the urge to eat well, exercise, do good work and stop worrying so much! !

        Mercury visits three signs in September, drawing attention to a wide variety of needs and issues. If you have been experiencing delays or shortages, things may improve after Pluto turns direct on September 8, and Venus turns direct on the 9th. Pluto's direct motion will expand our horizons spiritually and philosophically. New people will enter our lives that can help us expand our sense of trust and create positive outcomes. Venus's direct movement in Leo will definitely put you in the mood to play (especially since Saturn is out of Leo!)! It's party time! On September 11th a New Moon Solar Eclipse at 18° Virgo lights up the sky and your life!! Eclipses always bring major changes and have an element of the unpredictable. They are considered 'course correctors'! The three-day intervals preceding and following the 11th mark a turning point, but the effect of this eclipse will last until February 2008.

        We will all be learning the lessons of developing our analytical abilities and learning to put things in proper perspective. Wherever 18° Virgo falls in your natal chart will find that area of your life stimulated and will be the focus of your attention over the next six months. Remember to 'go with the flow', as change is good! :-)

        This month's Full Moon occurs on the 26th at 2:46pm at 3° Aries. This month's New Moon occurs in Virgo on the 11th at 7:45am (the Solar Eclipse!). A New Moon occurs when the Moon and the Sun are in the same sign at the same degree. This is a time for concentrated energies and new beginnings. The New Moon in Virgo is a time to organize and create systems, order, health and routine to your life!

AUGUST 2007 OUTLOOK

Happy Birthday LEO and VIRGO Natives!!
       This Leo Sun is certainly dramatic. We are also experiencing a ‘trine’ between Saturn and Pluto that peaks on the 6th. (A Trine are two planets that are 120° apart in the sky). This is an aspect that tends to have a long-term effect on the economy.

We also have Five (count them - FIVE) planets moving in retrograde motion this month.
Venus is Retrograde in Virgo.
Uranus is Retrograde in Pisces.
Neptune is retrograde in Aquarius.
Jupiter and Pluto are retrograde in Sagittarius.
And, we have a Lunar Eclipse on August 28!!

      A Lunar Eclipse occurs at a Full Moon when the Earth passes between the Moon and the Sun, with the Earth’s shadow occluding the Moon’s light. So, what does all of this mean to you??
      The effect of a Lunar Eclipse is much like that of a Full Moon though with just a bit more chaos and stress - some may be mild or moderate. Whether an eclipse feels like an easy ride or a hard struggle, it does lead to long-term profound change as you search for a higher purpose. Breakdown of social patterns are part of your reality. We are likely to be overly critical of society, and may seek isolation. We may also rediscover or redefine our artistic talents, or investigate our subconscious thoughts through meditation in order to bring hidden fears and anxieties to the surface so that we can learn to deal with them.:-)

Venus is retrograde all month and may put a crimp in your love life, as Mars keeps you focused on other matters. Mars manifests as restlessness or a desire for stimulation.

Jupiter is retrograde until the 6th and causes us to rethink philosophical beliefs, deal with legal matters and management policies. When Jupiter goes direct there will be a newfound feeling of freedom and optimism reentering the atmosphere.

      Saturn is retrograde until the 19th of August. We should maintain the status quo in career and allow this period to pass before breaking any new ground.

      Uranus is retrograde until November 24. Stick with tested concepts and methods. You view life in a more detached way, devoid of sentiment, yet you function well in a day-to-day world.

      Neptune is retrograde until October 31. It is time to renew spiritually and avoid judgment and criticism. Accept and welcome new experiences as a means to learn, grow and expand your world.

      Pluto is retrograde until September 7. Cleanse pollution from your bodies and environment. Pluto requires acquiring a broader perspective of the process of life, learning the responsibilities of power and teaching others to use powerful tools without destroying themselves and others.

      A New Moon occurs when the Moon and the Sun are in the same sign at the same degree. This is a time for concentrated energies and new beginnings. This month’s New Moon occurs in the sign of LEO on August 12 at 6:02pm. The New Moon in Leo is a time to pause and improve our meditative insights.

      The Full Moon, a Total Lunar Eclipse on the 28th at 5:35am, blends Pisces (Moon) and Virgo (Sun). Both are exactly opposite from each other. Slow down as thoughts don’t coincide with aims today. Appointments will change suddenly and communication disruptions are likely!

JULY 2007 OUTLOOK

      Happy Birthday CANCER and LEO Natives!! The month begins still vibrating from the Full Moon on May 31st, and the reverberations are likely to continue until the New Moon on the 14th. Mars in Aries keeps the energy flowing and Venus in Leo heats up passions. A reckless spirit of rebellion is presiding now, perhaps striking a blow for freedom or inventing a whole new identity.

      The New Moon on the 14th is at 8:04am at 21°41’ Cancer. New Moons are always good times to envision our future and set new intentions. A New Moon in Cancer invites us to reflect on the current level of sustenance in our lives. Are we taking good care of our body? How’s our mental hygiene? Are we conscious of our thoughts, our feelings, our soul desires? This New Moon reminds us of the importance of monitoring each level of our being. Several other alignments potentialize this New Moon making it easier to see what we need and where to find it.

      Jupiter and Pluto are retrograde in Sagittarius, Uranus is retrograde in Pisces and Neptune is retrograde in Aquarius. Venus goes retrograde on the 27th . It is rare to have 6 planets retrograde in a single month. Think of this as an opportunity to pause and review your life. You will refine your image, your goals, redo jobs, or reconsider your stance on issues. :-)

      Because Mercury is continuing its retrograde in Cancer during the first 9 days of the month, we will continue to be a bit confused and communication may be one of the primary issues. Questions arise concerning ways to increase security, and we evaluate family and friend relationships and their importance in our lives. Because Cancer rules food, this is also a good time to consider any new dietary choices you might like to make after Mercury goes direct on the 9th. Venus remains retro- grade until September 17. This represents a significant shift in the social landscape. Venus retrograde prompts us to think about how are we interacting with those that are close. Are we treating them in a way that is healthy and ensures love? Are they treating us with respect? Whatever the situation may be, it is time to examine behavior patterns and correct any flaws. This Venus cycle also could draw in a love connection from the past - either from this life or a past life. Thus, it is good to be aware of anyone who comes into our lives now. If we connect on a deeper level, it could be unfinished business- a fellow soul with whom there is still something from the past that we have the opportunity to now complete in the present.

      The Full Moon occurs on the 29th at 8:48pm at 6°31’ Aquarius. A major shift in the cosmic landscape is occuring. Look for an end to fruitless fantasies as you give form to dreams that can be realized. Heightened intelligence and open-mindedness are supported by this moon position.. What is your passion? How do you want the world to be? This fiery Full Moon impels us to share our gifts and visions. The Sun in Leo advises: Remember your divine essence and mission. At the same time you are being told to be true to yourself!! Look at your feelings with more detachment instead of taking everything personally. All Full Moons are emotional high tides, periods when our emotions are polarized and we dramatize our feelings. This Leo Sun is certainly dramatic.

JUNE 2007 OUTLOOK Happy Birthday GEMINI and CANCER Natives!!

      We’re still vibrating from the Full Moon in Sagittarius on May 31. Relationships heat up and passions rise as a reckless spirit of rebellion is presiding now, perhaps striking a blow for freedom or inventing a whole new identity.

       Five planets spend time traveling backward during June. Of course, planets don’t REALLY move backward. They merely appear to do so because of an optical illusion. On June 1, Jupiter and Pluto are retrograde in Sagittarius, and Neptune is retrograde in Aquarius.

       On June 15th, Mercury turns retrograde in Cancer and on June 23, Uranus turns retrograde in Pisces. When a planet is retrograde, its energy is directed inward. You have to look inside yourself for answers and for strength. When a planet turns retrograde, think of the issues it represents as being given a ‘second chance.’ You have an opportunity to review and, if necessary, revise your actions, priorities or your stance on issues. You can benefit from retrograde periods if you use them wisely. When Mercury is retrograde verify that orders and letters arrive and are understood correctly. Re-check just to be sure. Act on what you already know rather than seeking additional data. While Jupiter is retrograde, reevaluate your guiding beliefs. While Uranus is retrograde, stick with methods and ideas that worked in the past.

       Venus is in Leo from June 5 until mid-July. You can express yourself and enjoy life. The passion planets, Venus and Mars, are in Fire Signs, stimulating desires and creativity. If you seek romance, you can probably find it. However, communication may be tricky as Mercury is in sensitive Cancer and retrograde. Hurt feelings or misunder- standings could mar your love story.

       Mars spends the first three weeks of June in its home sign of Aries where it is powerful and comfortable. You can call attention to your abilities and interests. On June 24, Mars enters Taurus, and things slow down a bit. This is a good time to start ventures and relationships that you want to last. Put your energy into things associated with Taurus in your chart and strive for stability as we begin to experience a major shift in the cosmic landscape.

       The Full Moon occurs on the 30th at 9:49am at 8°45’Capricorn. This Full Moon occurs in the midst of an unusual atmosphere. It stretches us to recognize our security while radical change occurs. The New Moon occurs on the 14th at 10:14pm at 23°41’Gemini. A New Moon begins a whole new cycle for you and will affect the area of your life where this New Moon energy lands in your personal chart.

MAY 2007 OUTLOOK

A 'Once in a Blue Moon" occurs this month!!

Happy Birthday Taurus and Gemini natives!!

       A whirl of confusion will permeate the atmosphere through the month! Normally, one Full Moon and one New Moon occur each month. While New Moons signify beginnings, Full Moons denote illumination. These monthly moon cycles mark important events in your life.

       This month is especially significant because we have one New Moon and TWO Full Moons. The second Full Moon is known as a Blue Moon. The First Full Moon is on May 2nd and begins the whirl of confusion. This confusion is meant to disrupt old ways of seeing things so that a higher, more effective order can emerge once the fog lifts.

       First Full Moon occurs on the 2nd at 5:10am at 11 38’ Scorpio and is conjunct Mercury. This Full Moon gets you in touch with your feelings

       A Second Full Moon (Blue Moon) occurs on the 31st at 8:04pm at 10 11’ Sagittarius and inspires optimism. A month with two Full Moons occurs approximately every two years. Hence, the saying "Once in a Blue Moon!"!!

       The New Moon occurs on the 16th at 2:29pm at 25 33’ Taurus. It also begins a whole new cycle for you and will affect the area of your life where this New Moon energy lands. Overall it triggers a time for you to review recent expenses, and if you have not been using resources wisely, you can make changes now.

       Neptune is traveling through the constellation of Aquarius and begins to move retrograde on the 24th. When Neptune turns retrograde, it traditionally stirs up confusion. So, add this Neptune movement to the Full Moon activity and the whirl continues.

       We are likely to begin feeling Neptune’s influence prior to the retrograde station, perhaps as early as mid-month. Look to begin evaluating those parts of your life that are ruled by Aquarius: friendships, life goals, humanitarian activities, equality with others and the desire to help one another.

       This yearly retrograde movement of Neptune will last until the end of October so use this time to relax, renew and refresh.

       Mars spends the first two weeks of May in Pisces, the final sign of the Zodiac. This gives you enough time to complete any projects you have begun. When Mars moves into Aries on May 15, you enter a new cycle of activity and achievement.

       Mercury and the Sun begin the month in Taurus emphasiz-ing finances and material needs. On May 11, Mercury moves into Gemini for two weeks You can do mental work, gather facts, and stay in touch. The Sun moves into Gemini on the 21st!

       Jupiter and Pluto are retrograde in Sagittarius all month. This is a good time to rethink your beliefs and get rid of things that are holding you back. Your first move should be to decide what you want out of life. Once you have set your goal, you can make intelligent decisions.

       To find out where this is and how this month’s planetary activity affects you personally, call 770-587-1910 or e-mail javamist@aol.com to schedule a reading or order a report. I look forward to hearing from you.

APRIL 2007 OUTLOOK

       April promises to be a very harmonius month. We will be able to go about our business, make progesss in the directions that we have chosen, and be in touch with the basic sense of life unfolding itself in a non-threatening way. Jupiter goes into retrograde motion in Sagittarius on the 5th (lasting until August 6). During the first days in April while it is making a station as it prepares to go retrograde, we may experience some confusion in the connections with the intuitive parts within us that normally help us to navigate our lives. Between now and August 6th we would be wise to prepare to ensure our future path. This could happen on a very practical level: recognizing that a business plan or a project needs working on to go in a slightly different direction. We could also recognize that we need to pull back a bit in areas where we take risks and use more logic to implement our vision in a more realistic and practical way. Since Jupiter is traveling through the constellation of Sagittarius, our spiritual values come to the surface with an emphasis with the importance of truth, our philosophy of life and our peace of mind. We have begun to view life as an adventure as we re-evaluate some of the philosophies we adopted throughout our whole life. This Jupiter energy is well suited for reflecting on what we truly believe in.

       Saturn has been going retrograde since last December and now goes direct on the 19th. During the first part of the month, as Saturn prepares to go direct, responsibility and workloads increase so get an early start on projects because delays are likely. After the 19th, all systems are go to move forward and manifest creative projects and goals. Saturn brings you closer to your karmic destiny. Saturn’s energy keeps you in check and makes you accountable and drives you to success if you do the hard work. If there is a practical plan you have wanted to implement, now is the time to take action and do it! This month is absolutely fabulous for bringing the desires of our hearts to fruition as we heal past wounds by simply making positive progress that leads to achievement. Uranus’s energy adds to the mix by giving us brilliant insights that we need to implement our visions successfully - and in ways we hadn’t thought of before. Uranus is the planet of surprise and excitement. As it continues it’s transit through the constellation of Pisces look for bursts of creativity inspired by your dream life to show you how to express your true self. So, tighten your seatbelt and enjoy the ride!!!

       This month’s Full Moon takes place on the 2nd at 12:16pm EST. and occurs at 12° 35’ Libra. The New Moon occurs on the 17th at 27° 05’ Aries at 6:37am. This Full Moon ignites the eclipses of 2005-06 and therefore brings many parts of your life to fulfillment and completion. What you didn’t see before now becomes very apparent and you have the energy to act on it. The New Moon starts a whole new cycle for you and will affect the area of your life where this New Moon energy lands. To find out where this is and how this month’s planetary activity affects you personally, call 770-587-1910 or e-mail javamist@aol.com to schedule a reading or order a report. I look forward to hearing from you.

March 2007

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! PISCES AND ARIES NATIVES!!

       A Total Lunar Eclipse of the Moon on March 3rd and a Solar Eclipse of the Sun on March 18th are the major players this month. The Lunar Eclipse marks the end of a chapter in our lives, closing off the past, letting go of old habits and seeking new forms of nourish- ment and security. A powerful Uranus aspect to the Sun adds to the mix and heralds sudden, unexpected change. Emotional tension could be high but this may lead to personal revelations about needs and desires. There may be bursts of brilliance and endless insights that spur creativity and liberate us from the usual limits of ego as an urge to break free can spark battles against whatever feels constraining. Uranus quickens everything it touches, so we are likely to feel an urge to go in new directions in terms of expressing our life force.

       Mercury begins the month continuing its retrograde motion in Aquarius until the 7th. We are better off postponing beginning new projects during the first week of the month.

       The Moon enters Virgo at 1:32pm on Friday March 2. Normally the Moon’s entry into this practical Earth sign has a calming effect. But this Full Moon is also an Eclipse at 6:15pm on the 3rd at 16°00 Virgo, so we’re more likely to see the nervous side of the Virgo Moon. If you feel overwhelmed by big issues, handling small ones skillfully will provide some sense of control in your life.

       This month’s New Moon is especially potent since it combines with a Solar Eclipse! The New Moon occurs on the 18th at 9:43am with the Eclipse occurring at 10:43pm as the Earth and Moon line up exactly with the Sun at 28°07 of Pisces. The house in your natal chart where 28° Pisces falls will be the arena of your life that becomes highly activated over the next six months. With the Solar Eclipse occurring in Pisces, we will all be learning about sensitivity to others and ourselves, and through sensitivity we will be teaching others how to become more aware and psychic. The dangers include a tendency to be too gullible or to allow our sensitivity to dissuade us from taking necessary action. Sensitivity in its highest form does not lead to withdrawal, but rather to conscious participation. Self-discipline is on the rise.

       The new astrological year begins on March 20 as the Sun enters Aries. The vernal equinox is the beginning of spring. This turning of the seasons swings the cosmic tides in a new direction. If your purpose and methods are clear, productivity can be very high.

       Overall, this is going to be a very powerful month! Breaking even one little habit can set off a chain of events that moves you in an entirely new direction. Brace yourself, take advantage of this planetary energy and enjoy the ride!!

FEBRUARY 2007 OUTLOOK

       Mercury turns RETROGRADE on the 14th at 10 degrees of Pisces and continues it's apparent backward motion to 25 degrees Aquarius when it turns direct on the 8th of March.

       The purpose of this forecast is to list the most important astrological events of the month to help you plan your life in harmony with cosmic currents. You can easily select the best times each month to advance, hold back, confront, avoid, refuse, yield or stand your ground in order to enhance your chances of success.

       The month kicks off with a powerful Full Moon in Leo on February 1. When the Moon is full the Sun and Moon are opposite each other. This months’ Full Moon has the Sun in intellectual Aquarius and the Moon moving through emotional, dramatic Leo! This Full Moon is also connected with Mars and Uranus and can produce significant changes in habits, routines, home life, and relationships. If you desire change in your life, this lunation is the trigger. But, if change is not what you want, toning down the expression of your feelings can cool the flames of a fire that could get out of control. (This Full Moon will also make you want to party more. Jupiter is in nice aspect to this Moon and supports your party mood.)

       Mercury’s entry into watery Pisces on February 2 increases imagination and reduces objectivity. Dreams, emotions, idealism and spiritualism influence your thoughts. Conversations become more creative, making facts open to interpretation. But, an open mind and imagination can show the way to a more inspired life. You have a chance to bring success into your life by following your own star. The influence of Mercury will help you to understand how your thinking and talents differ from others, and how to take advantage of that.

       Venus gets into the mix and brings surprises in the realms of love, partnership, self-worth, pleasure, beauty and the arts. This is a great time to experiment with your looks. Venus joins Uranus on the 7th and sets off a year of radical changes in long-term ambitions, beliefs and philosophies. This is a good time to empty closets and address complex partnership issues.

       Mercury begins its Retrograde motion on the 13th as it is traveling through intuitive Pisces and stays retrograde until March 8. This transit will remind us to see with our hearts rather than relying on our minds. A temporary loss of logic may awaken intuitive capacities usually inhibited by the rational mind. While Mercury is retrograde you will want to revise and revamp, tend to projects and tasks with extra diligence and verify that orders and letters arrive and are understood correctly.

       A New Moon occurs when the Moon and the Sun are in the same sign at the same degree - usually once a month. It is a time of concentrated energies and new beginnings.

       This month’s New Moon occurs in the sign of Aquarius on February 17th at 11:14am. Enjoy the innovative, creative New Moon and begin a plan for the future. You will want to enjoy the company of kindred spirits and share your thoughts with them.

JANUARY 2007 OUTLOOK

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL CAPRICORNS and AQUARIANS !

       The purpose of this card is to list the most important astrological events of the month to help you plan your life in harmony with cosmic currents. You can easily select the best times each month to advance, hold back, confront, avoid, refuse, yield or stand your ground in order to enhance your chances of success.

       The month starts with Uranus being quite prominent as it brings startling new viewpoints which are very appropriate for this time of year. You are looking forward instead of backward, and when the Sun transitions from Capricorn to Aquarius on the 20th at 6:01am we begin this journey by looking deep within ourselves for answers that we have known all along had we but the courage to acknowledge it. The transits of Mercury and Venus bring up old relationship patterns that we are ready to gain a better and more distant perspective on, thereby beginning to allow them to heal.

       Saturn-Neptune aspects push us beyond previous limitations and urge us to find a spiritual middle ground. We have an opportunity to ground our dreams concretely in substance. Though you may tend to hold back from necessary changes you have the help of Uranus and Neptune to push you way beyond your expectations.

       Mars adds excitement to the mix but may also make times tough. You have a choice: ease the intensity of inner turmoil, or take the high road of transforming your anger into positive action leading to a more enlightened point of view. You can choose evolution or stagnation. You can be lifted toward evolution if you are willing to let go of your timeworn ruts of thinking.

       You are being prepared in this month and this year for the more massive changes to our society and our world in the next few years.

       The New Moon on Thursday January 18th at 28° 2’ Capricorn at 11:01pm reminds us to take our outrageous plans seriously rather than go out on a limb for no particular reason.

       The Full Moon on January 3rd at 12°48’ Cancer will bring issues and information that has been hidden from our view out into the open for us to see, digest, analyze and then use for our higher good. Cancer is the sign of the mother, the nurturer, the home. It is important to pay attention to the cosmic rhythms, come to a deeper sense of connection to the universe and thereby have a deeper sense and meaning to the purpose of our personal lives.
