GEMINI
With the New Moon in Gemini last Wednesday and Mercury’s retrograde motion, don’t be surprised if you have had a week of conflicting emotions and changing viewpoints. Things are as they should be.
CANCER
Pluto retrogrades back into your solar 6th house for the last time, staying for 5 _ months. Use this opportunity to make some long-term arrangements regarding your health and fitness. Excellent time to give up smoking, gambling or other addictive habits.
LEO
In your eagerness to impress others care should be taken not to become opinionated or intolerant, as this will alienate the very people you are trying so hard to impress. Don’t make promises you can’t keep.
VIRGO
You have some unfinished business on the home front and unless you deal with it, it will continue to drag you back, consuming energy and time, which can be better employed. Free yourself up.
LIBRA
An encounter stretches your boundaries and makes your sees things in a different light. This not only increases your confidence but also brings you into contact with group activities, which can be beneficial.
SCORPIO
Pluto returns to your solar 2-nd house till the end of November and during this time you may be thrown back onto your own resources as you finally let go of a cherished idea, goal or person. They are no longer absolutely necessary.
SAGITTARIUS
Things are a little out of perspective at the moment so it may be wise to pull back a bit and reflect. This is a busy period where prospective plans need adjustments and revising before completion.
CAPRICORN
The next few months could be a very unsettling period of time for you as Pluto slips back into your solar 12th house for the last time. You have perhaps felt some gradual changes taking place and these will have profound effects.
AQUARIUS
Children seem to take up a bit of your time and energy this week particularly teenagers. When ferrying them to and fro open up a line of communication, these short trips can illicit useful information.
PISCES
Lot of activity around the home lately with friends, family and siblings using it as a meeting place. You may become a bit impatient with some but generally you don’t mind as you find the company stimulating.
ARIES
Siblings seem a bit of a priority this week as you take a stand and put forward your views and opinions. As you are not spoiling for a fight or argument they are accepted in the spirit they are given.
TAURUS
You feel like socialising this week so make the most of it. Draw together some like-minded friends for a night on the town or some creative activity that sees you mixing and enjoying the mood of the moment. THE ASTROLOGICAL ELEMENTS
WATER: CANCER, SCORPIO, AND PISCES
Water in nature’s environment, contributes to the fluid essential for the survival of all natures creatures and plants, and the human body. In myth water tends to be bound up with the divine, as a source and renewer of life. It is associated with fecundity, procreative powers, fertility, birth and also immortality and rebirth with the Christians using it for baptism.
All are Yin signs and along with the Earth element represent the feminine, receptive and responsive side of our psyche. Generally reserved until they know and trust people at the end of a long hard day prefer to unwind alone or in the company of those close.
Astrologically Water corresponds to Jung’s Feeling Type with a focus on the realm of emotions and tends to decide issues based on personal, subjective values. They are attracted and repelled by the ‘energy or vibrations’ of others, quite unable to express what it is that pulls or pushes them. Water in essence has no form and by its nature is an element that will absorb and assimilate what is in the environment.
Water’s gifts are the natural inclination to see the source not the symptom, able to read what is below the surface of a situation. Receptive to others they are astute at sensing what others need with an instinctual understanding. The shadow side is their assumption and expectation that others can do the same for them, which can leave them feeling unsupported emotionally. Emotional manipulation, chaos, secrecy or moodiness and a lack of appropriate boundaries are all associated with the shadow side. |
