Turning Inward to Renewal Solar Week of Jan 31 - Feb 5 2012

In General:

This is a week of shadow-dancing, facing dark things and coming through them to new inspirations.  This is a week to face the darkness and find, buried within, the seeds of light.  No matter your sun-sign, it would do you well to heed the message of the Crocus who begins to poke his head from the ground even in coldest of the winter, heralding the spring!

Aries

So an Aries is on an airplane, and the flight attendant comes back and informs him that there was a mishap and the plane has lost an engine, and every passenger is being asked to throw one large item off the plane to make up for weight...  May this classic joke intro serve as  your personal Zen Cohen, Aries.  The key word is weight and baggage.  The central issue is how the physical things we hold onto line up with the emotional things we chose not to move beyond.   Your assignment for the week is to go through and eliminate extra baggage, starting with excess unneeded physical belongings, but continuing on to include all the dark regrets, bitterness, and grudges, and in a single great act of catharsis put them on the curb.  This letting go will leave you loose light and ready to jump on board a burst of new ideas and adventurous romantic possibilities that await you at the end of this week!  

Taurus

Taurus, my Taurus.  Please make sure you set aside valuable self care time this week.  Invest in some good bubble bath, a back massage, things that bring you physical comfort.  This is a week that you need that bit of respite.  It may feel in certain respects that the wind has just gone out of your sails or a shadow has crossed your heart.  In truth this is a dark sensitive moment that is really intended for some soul searching.  While I want you to dive into this challenge, I'm advising not to take this plunge into your depths without a kit of emergency provisions:  A good mud mask, some bubble bath, a few candles, a favorite pint of ice cream and something that makes you feel alluring.  Best to shore up support for our sense of well being before jumping too deeply into the depths.

Gemini

Dear Gemini I implore you to meditate responsibly. Do not drive while in a revelatory fugue state, and avoid strangers with holey grails.  (The supper might be fun but the 3 day hangover is a is death!)  This is a time to turn to that spiritual nature that only you have, and by right only you understand.  BUT please, please, please, Gemini avoid the impulse to avoid, run away from the impulse to run away, and please try to ignore the impulse to ignore your intuition/feelings and hope it gets better.  This is a time to confront and stay the course, this will be challenging for a bit, but the rewards will be great! Promise.

Cancer

Dear Cancer please follow the instructions of your flight attendant.  Please fasten your seat belt tight and low across your waist.  Make sure you give yourself air before assisting others.  Space is surely the final frontier, and you may need a lot of it before the week is is out.  Don't get me wrong, it is important to come to the aid of friends in need.   But now more than ever you need to make sure you are taking time for self-care so that you can be strong for those you love.  This is an excellent moment to practice taking care of yourself and to make sure you stay in the habit.  Things may seem to fly all over the place by the end of the week, so self care is where I want your focus, it will make it all so much easier!

Leo

This week I want to talk you into doing what may well be a touch of practical, yet less than fun planning.  I know its not glamorous or fun.  But here is the up-side: with a little planning and setting things in motion you can set aside insecurities worries and stress and be geared up and ready for new unexpected possibilities particularly in the realm of possible travel that may be in the works for you.  Try to keep your feet on the ground and pay attention getting all the facts before any major decision.  Things are inclined to get out of control quickly.

Virgo

Yes Virgo it would be nice to live in a world where you could keep control over everything.  It would probably keep your anxiety down, and make things ever so much easier to deal with.  Yes Virgo it seems like it might be such a wonderful thing to run up an ivory tower and hide from the world.  Don't.  A small trip might not be out of the question, but only if you want to use the seclusion to weigh out the dark things you keep under your spiritual floor boards, and clean house of old worries and dark remembrances.  Otherwise its also a good week to remember to breath, directly ask for what you want and practice setting clear boundaries.  Careful of your temper this week it may be surprisingly close to the surface.

Libra

If you begin this week feeling a bit unsettled I am not surprised.  This is a week in which the emotional hob-goblins and insecurities rising from your history and the bits you just would rather not look at are making themselves particularly hard to ignore.  When you try to, things go inexplicably wrong.  Dishes get broken, people trip.  Probably in ways that are not even directly connected in any observable way.  This is a message.  There is a part of your heart, your history, yourself demanding that you stop ignoring it.  So find a sitter, call in sick, tell the partner/husband wife you need a few days in the woods/your bedroom anyplace you can feel both safe cared for and have time to cry.  Try not to be secretive.  Keep a dear friend's number handy.  Meditate, pray, talk to your ancestors... Open to the spirits of goodness you trust in your life.  This is a possibility.  This is a time when you may enter into a new path as a great healer, but first you must start by healing yourself.  Good luck.

Scorpio

Scorpio Scorpio.  This is almost a story worthy of a classic cautionary tale.  This week you will be visited by three specters! I implore you Scorpio listen to what they say!  Embrace their message!  You will first (if in fact you haven't begun already)  find yourself thinking on the ghost of relationship past.  This includes the history of the relationships of our parents and how growing up caused us to hold onto things that just do us no good.  And old relationships gone, and even the past of any relationship you may currently be in.  Speak little, listen much.  Pay attention.  Then I ask you to focus on the Specter of relationship present.  How do you behave in your current relationship?  If you are between significant others, it doesn't matter.  The very way we choose to live our life and interact with others lays a foundation for the relationships we make.  Again it is all in paying attention.  By the end of the week you may be ready to begin the ghost of relationship future.  Treat it like your learning a new skill, even if you have the love of your life it is time to use what you may observe to make it better.  Another hint, make it about the choices you make.
Sagittarius

Its a good week to try learning something new, to challenge the assumed boundaries of your skills and redefine what you presume yourself to be capable of.  Its time to challenge assumptions of identity by learning new things.  You can't be all things, but it is a good time to challenge yourself to expand your repertoire, particularly because something new and exciting could present itself in the process.  Get ready for new exciting adventures, even ones that start in less than flashy ways!

Capricorn

This is a week for looking deep into who you are.  This is a week for some deep soul searching.    This is a time for your least favorite type of seriousness.  That weird hard-to-define part of your life that has to do with emotional awareness.  It is a week for deep thoughts and entertaining brand new ways of defining what the very idea of happiness means to you.  If you do the hard work of sitting spiritually with those questions, by the end of the week some exciting possibilities may be showing up in small ways  Expect new influences to this end from people who were not well known to you here to fore.  When in doubt try something new, just as a tentative experiment.  Remember you can always stop, or try again.  Give yourself licence to explore

Aquarius

Aquarius this has not been the easiest season for you.  On the other hand it has at least been exciting.  Both of these conditions may well continue, no doubt.  The long term calling of trying to assert your sense of self and claiming your own personal power continues to motivate you.  This weeks stressor?  I recommend that most frustrating subject of family.  Particularly resonating are how the pains of your childhood, including all those real and assumed are rubbing up against your feelings about the family you are building and living in now.  Even more so how you feel about your children or people you provide care for.  Here is a hint:  old stories can end.  This doesn't have to be your present.  You have a right to lay these dark stories to rest.  How?  Confront them, speak aloud, hold hands with healing friends, and hey, counseling never hurt anyone.  The point is not to own this darkness.  It is not you. It is just something that you have acquired. You have a right to return to sender, or just forgive and offer this pain and story to the good spirits who guide your life!

Pisces

Pisces repeat after me:  I take care of myself first.  Even if all people are good it is better not to invite the ones who hurt me into my life.  I can be compassionate without self sabotage.  I can be spiritual without self sacrifice.  This is a week for good friends and well tested relationships.  This is not a week for light casual acquaintances.  Focus on your space, your home.  This is a week best spent taking care of yourself first.  It is week to be wary of people who would put demands on you.  Make sure that you are receiving as well as giving.  When in doubt believe the evidence of action over nice of words.


Extreme aspects currently in the sky also interact with our personal charts.  Make sure you are taking the space to breath and keep  physically, emotionally and spiritually healthy.  One thing that can aid in this is treating yourself to a personal astrological consultation.
