Daily Horoscope for Aquarius Summary

It's a bit complicated today Moon-doggies... So work with me on this...

Today's energy is focused on reaching greater levels of balance within our lives... This has a lot to do with the North Node sitting on the cusp of Libra... This same energy makes our relationships with others extremely important at this time... The Node is a strong indicator of where fate & destiny is most likely to be played out in our lives.

Next we have Venus in the sign of Leo... That in itself is a beautiful placement... It's warm nurturing and comforting... Almost "Motherly" kind of energy in the way it expresses itself... But... (pointing to my butt)... When Venus is retrograde in the sign of Leo, it acts more like a spoiled brat child... (like Veruca in the Willy Wonka movie)... It has the vibe of "What is Mine is Mine... And what is Yours, I Want"... hehe... (gulp)...

Next on the list, we have Jupiter in the sign of Virgo... Jupiter in Virgo acts like an old skilled craftsman... It knows all the fine details of what to look for and what defines quality and value... So when Jupiter is in the sign of Virgo, it has a way of re-assigning the real value of items... If you were to remove all the "labels" from personal items (clothing etc)... Would you still buy the same brands?...

When we start to put all this energy together, a strong theme appears...

All of these placements in themselves are indicators of increased financial/material wealth and abundance... It all toggles and depends upon the "judgment" qualities of Venus & Jupiter... This is true in our personal interactions with others... But like I said, a retro Venus can be quite selfish... And Jupiter in Virgo doesn't buy into the "illusions" of status or "perceived value"... Both Jupiter & Venus are fairly "parental" in the way they do things too... They are both there to "teach us lessons"... And being fairly "parental" in their nature, neither planet wants or will tolerate others telling them what do to and how to do things.

Because of this rather bizarre kind of energy, you will see some strange behavior in the actions of those around you... It's has an "inner rebellious" quality to it... It's easy to see this energy in action with the effect it has upon the "global economies"...

So here we are at the end of the Shmittah 7 year cycle... Not only is this the end of the 7 year cycle, it's also the end of the 49 year cycle... (7 Shmittah cycles in a row)... That is considered to be the Year of Jubilee... That sounds like it has a party kind of vibe but in fact it's historically been the exact opposite... It's considered a time when the Big Spirit renders a spiritual judgments and often in financial ways.

With a pattern like this, I'd keep a very close eye on the financial markets for the next few months... This combination of planet energies makes it easy for the "spoiled child" effect to kick in and when things are not going the way THEY want them to, they may want to "pick up the ball and go home"... Or refuse to care or have concerns over what effect their actions can have upon others... Or... (the big one)... What happens if "the lenders" (Jupiter in Virgo) demand that the "borrowers" (Retro Venus in Leo) pay them the back what they are owed and have agreed upon?...

Yeah, as great as this chart is in terms of potential, what really matters is how each of us put that potential to use in our own lives... Saturn on the cusp of Sagittarius... Perhaps the most parental of all the planets would sound like my Dad when we were kids and raising hell inside the house on a rainy day... He's say "You guys better knock it off before someone gets hurt"... When I see this chart, that's the warning voice I'm hearing.

Keep the Faith... Better Days and Higher Love are comin' soon...

The Daily Horoscope for Aquarius

It's not always easy to deal with, but you will find that many of the elements of your life that you always trusted and relied upon will fade into the background... This is mainly due to the need to stand more solidly on your own two feet and to take on more personal responsibility for your own words and actions... This is very important because you are moving into what could be one of the most fortunate times of your life... The universe doesn't want you to screw that up!! hehe...!!

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

When it is peaceful, it is easy to maintain
When it shows no signs, it is easy to plan
When it is fragile, it is easy to break
When it is small, it is easy to scatter
Act on it when it has not yet begun
Treat it when it is not yet chaotic
A tree thick enough to embrace
Grows from the tiny sapling
A tower of nine levels
Starts from the dirt heap
A journey of a thousand miles
Begins beneath the feet

The one who meddles will fail
The one who grasps will lose
Therefore, sages do not meddle and thus do not fail
They do not grasp and thus do not lose

People, in handling affairs
Often come close to completion and fail
If they are as careful in the end as the beginning
Then they would have no failure

Therefore, sages desire not to desire
They do not value goods that are hard to acquire
They learn to unlearn
To redeem the fault of the people
To assist the nature of all things
Without daring to meddle
