Weekly Horoscope for Aries Summary

This week I Start my Life Anew..!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JODI

As the old line says... "This too shall pass"... That is how the current chart energies have been dealing with these astrological transits... We have all these Planets and 'Roids floatin' around, and they all have different speeds and intensities... But each one wants to have things done in 'their way'... That adds a lot of tension behind the scenes... So the idea is to find where they all can agree and align at the same time.

We have two very powerful forces at work... Jupiter, Mercury and the Sun taking the lead... They're the guys that are sayin'... "There's only one direction... FORWARD"... and then there is the Neptune/Saturn conjunction that is trying to keep everything AS IT IS... There are others, Pluto, Node, Chiron, Uranus and Mars who are sorta-kinda like "Scare-D-Cats" who work behind the scenes to occasionally cause trouble to prevent progress because they've become too comfortable with how things currently are.

Reflections...
It's easy for us to have that "Old Man Jenkins" moments (even for kids) because so much is happening so quickly, that once we get 'used' to something, everything changes... hehe... So we have that "Willy Wonka" vibe goin' on where "The Suspense is Terrible... I Hope it Lasts"... hehe... Fortunately for us, the charts that give us those needed 'sneak peeks' at what is happening and why.

The planets are NOT in disagreement in where they want to lead us... The issue we currently have, is each planet wants to take us there "On their Path".... And "On their Timeline"... The one thing that ALL of the planets are in agreement with... Is the need to get back to being focused on 'Quality' and 'Precision'... However, Pluto, Neptune, Saturn and Chiron don't want to take the blame if things do not turn out the way each of them wanted.

With this kind of energy pattern... The best course of action is to not to try to 'fix the world' so it conforms to our views... (the world is fine as it is)... hehe... The real challenge is really about getting back to natural and the practical answers and solutions... So this week's vibe would be more about having more real in-person to in-person interactions... face-to-face... or voice-to-voice... interaction/conversations than just sending electronic messages back and forth.

That's it for now...
Thanks for stoppin' by..!!
I'll talk to you guys later...

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

The Weekly Horoscope for Aries shows there's a lot goin' on around you that may not make a lot of sense right now, so the idea is to focus on your own tasks, duties or whatever... With all those planets in your solar 1st House, this is when it's better to be a listener than the speaker as there'll be a lot to be learned... Your chart is very solid right now, but those retro planets in your solar 1st House shows this is when you need to focus on the tasks that need to be done... It's super creative, so the right answers and solutions will appear if/when you look for them!!

Today's Astrology Quote of the Day:
The stars above govern our condition...
He follows that with... I was born sir, when the Crab was ascending: all my affairs go backwards.
~ Shakespeare in King Lear

Daily Tao

Those that attained oneness since ancient times:
The sky attained oneness and thus clarity
The earth attained oneness and thus tranquility
The gods attained oneness and thus divinity
The valley attained oneness and thus abundance
The myriad things attained oneness and thus life
The rulers attained oneness and became the standard for the world
These all emerged from oneness

The sky, lacking clarity, would break apart
The earth, lacking tranquility, would erupt
The gods, lacking divinity, would vanish
The valley, lacking abundance, would wither
Myriad things, lacking life, would be extinct
The rulers, lacking standard, would be toppled

Therefore, the honored uses the lowly as basis
The higher uses the lower as foundation
Thus the rulers call themselves alone, bereft, and unworthy
Is this not using the lowly as basis? Is it not so?
Therefore, the ultimate honor is no honor

Do not wish to be shiny like jade
Be dull like rocks
