Finally you have gotten the project off the ground. You are headed down a new path that should prove satisfying as well as productive. You should congratulate yourself for making the effort that has taken many months to accomplish. Working a project through the beginning stages is very difficult and requires al lot of patience. Patience is the only virtue.
Start to tie up any looses ends and eliminate any debt that you may have incurred over the previous few years. It’s good to start fresh without any encumbrances. Take a break now that you have gotten the ball rolling. Put your feet up and enjoy completely this restful recline.
Jupiter goes direct this week so you will be getting some extra help with finances and some good luck in general. All that you have been striving for will get a boost. Remember that Jupiter’s nature is to expand so make sure that you don’t expand too quickly as this will have a negative effect on your circumstances.
You are at your most practical at this time with many planets in earth signs. Don’t let this drag down your spirits as thinking too much about the mundane can do this. Focus on the details but don’t lose sight of the big picture.
Take notice of what is around you but also notice what is missing. What is missing often holds clues to improving the total you.
Season’s Greetings!

Don't Get Ahead of Yourself
I feel like Rip Van Winkle who woke up after 20 years. Suddenly, nothing seems familiar. It is as if a huge chunk of time has gone unaccounted for. This actually may be a good thing but it is too soon to tell. I suppose these kinds of gaps don’t happen all too often but they do show how the mind can give a fresh view of daily life. It shows how things that may have been of great import previously have no gravitas at all in the present.
Moving on, we experience a burst of freedom that seems too good to be true. We are not obligated and no one is obligated to us. Things just keep getting better and better. And there could not be a better time to experience this than over the holidays. It’s a little bit like trying to skip Christmas. Hope this is not too Bah Humbug for you.
Planets influence you, the way you receive the planetary influences. The receiver is more important than the planets in the sky. Your rising sign shows how you receive these planetary influences. Your rising sign represents your ability to use free will. So I wish you a cheerful and happy receiver (rising sign) and just for the record, all twelve signs of the zodiac can be cheerful and happy.
Happy holidays!

For What It's Worth
Things seem to be spiralling out of control, at least for the moment. This week demands that you spend a lot of time managing your impulses. This is a tiresome yet necessary chore. You feel yourself slipping into disarray. This happens when you have too much to do and not enough time. There is always plenty of time. Create some space for yourself to operate in a less stressful way. Release yourself from your own form of bondage. It's the holidays! Celebrate!
Take a counter intuitive moment to examine the situation before heading off in a direction. Intuition is not always a good compass. Sometimes we have to examine the underlying facts that lead us to our conclusions. We can be dead wrong. Sometimes our instincts lead us in the wrong direction.
Safety is a very circumspect term. What is safe may also be unsafe. Many people gravitate toward astrology for the purpose of safety. But sometimes seeking that safety net takes us out on a limb. That is why it is important to understand the laws of nature, that is, as much as it is humanly possible. The laws of nature reveal themselves as we make a concerted effort to navigate the sea of life.
Never assume. Your way of thinking has taken you to some conclusions which simply don't apply in the universe. Broaden your spectrum to include seeing what is missing as well as what is there. Synthesize rather than analyze. You have to put the whole picture together. Things start to take on a whole new perspective. People change when you change.

Incredible Journey
People are getting back in touch with you. Suddenly, you are hearing from people you haven’t heard from in years. They must be coalescing around something but what could it be. Is there a plan at work that you aren’t consciously aware of? People usually come together for some joint purpose. You find that in all areas of life. We are really herd animals and we follow the conventional wisdom of our times.
Approaching winter time, the days are getting shorter. This affects our internal clock and a period of adjustment is necessary. You may be feeling a little out of sync. The adjustment will come and you will be feeling more like yourself. Once this surge of energy hits, you’ll be ready for the holidays. Plenty of energy will be required for the remainder of this month. Don’t burn the candle at both ends.
Many planets are now occupying Earth & Fire signs. This gives a kind of steam roller effect. Try not to steam roll over your friends and family or anyone else for that matter. Think before speaking. Ask others what they would like to do or ask how they are feeling before going into your own diatribe.
Keep things simple. The simple contains the complex. It gives you a more easy going appearance when you are a simplifier. Others will appreciate it.

Red Sky At Night
Now is an excellent time to review past performance. Keep an eye on what may have been a trigger for your anxieties during the year. Try to alleviate the fear by moving into it. Take a closer look at it and get a better understanding of it. By doing this, you will begin to feel more at ease with the areas of life that have been problematic. Don’t try to side step the issues, but look at them squarely.
Many changes are occurring that will have a lasting effect on you and the people around you. You are like a puzzle piece. When you change, those around you will change too. Make sure that your quest for change is a beneficial one and not self destructive. It is important to use foresight when making decisions. Look down the road and see what the end result will be. Take the long road.
Be adventurous but know that there are boundaries. Rash behavior can lead to unwanted results. Patience is the only virtue. You may be fed up and impatient but this pays no dividends. Control yourself. Direct your conscious mind to give you inner peace and confidence. What truly belongs to you cannot be taken away.
Lighten up for the holidays. Give yourself the benefit of the doubt. Good fortune follows the courageous one.

Live And Let Live
Perhaps we shouldn’t concern ourselves with the possessions of other people. It is really not our cross to bear. When questioned, people would much rather bear their own cross and not that of someone else. For better or worse, we prefer our own set of circumstances.
If we really want to change them, that requires making a concerted effort toward consciousness. We must first realize that we need to make a change. Once we realize this, we can take the next step of doing something about it. This is a time consuming endeavor to which you must be committed.
We pay for what we want and we pay for what we don’t want. So be careful what you wish for then you may actually get it. That being said, we are usually interested in improving our circumstances. Those are the circumstances that we have created. If we really want something different, we have to consciously create other circumstances.
I often wonder why many don’t use foresight when travelling the journey of life. Foresight is ruled by the planet Saturn. Many astrologers fear Saturn. Saturn is father time. We get old too soon and smart too late. Foresight can mitigate many unpleasant situations.
We all have to carry on and we have to face our own circumstances. We should be joyful because we are the ones who created them. Every experience is just that, an experience. An experience isn’t good or bad.

"Living Well is the Best Revenge"
Impetuosity is the driving force of the moment. However, today you are held back by the Moon in Gemini which urges you to use intelligence before acting. It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement but speaking without thinking will likely land you in the dog house. Hold your tongue. This is often the downfall of many people. It feels good to get out your true feelings but is usually not worth the cost.
Discipline is the way to go. Create a schedule for yourself and loosely stick to it. It doesn’t have to be regimented but should be flexible. Just make sure to allot the scheduled amount of time to the project but be flexible enough to rearrange things when it is necessary. This takes away from the boredom of adhering to a schedule that is too strict.
Saturn continues to be in the sign of Libra which puts special emphasis on relationships. It causes you to need balance in these relationships. If you give too much, you harm the other. Go fifty-fifty and that is it. Let the partner contribute his/her fifty percent. Everyone will feel better about this arrangement.
Mars has just entered the sign of Virgo so health issues may be on your mind. Take action and control over your own health. You can do more than the doctor. You can adjust your daily habits to create harmony both physically and mentally. Take responsibility for your health regimen.

A Pentimento
You may be feeling like you have over done it. That could be physically, emotionally, intellectually or egotistically. The best advice is to never go to extremes. Too much and too little are the enemies. Also, it is easy to confine yourself to the same habits day after day that do not lead to the results that you desire. Become conscious of the little things that may be sinking your opportunities.
People probably don’t change too much during their lifetime, unless, of course, there is an interference. An interference could be any experience that brings us more into consciousness. Experiences can be painful and challenge us to take a closer look at our nature. You can change your nature but it requires taking action. Ultimately, you want to become more in harmony with nature. The laws of nature are nicely represented by the astrological archetype. The archetype in astrology, addresses all the problems of mankind. Character is destiny.
Drilling down will cause you to discover the deeper meaning of the soul and the spirit. The soul is represented by the Moon and the spirit is represented by the Sun. In spiritual evolution, the Sun (conscious) must realize the Moon (unconscious). The soul is our personal history through the ages. The spirit is our will and connection to the divine.
We must move forward. It’s just easier when we assist ourselves through the journey of life.
Be vigilant. Keep your mind open and facile. New ideas will develop spontaneously.
Spontaneity is well prepared.

Think Nice Thoughts
Don’t try to second guess yourself. Assume that you have made the best decision possible. You can drive yourself crazy with alternative scenarios. Let it rest and proceed as planned. You are delving into the deeper details of your environment. You are wondering what is the purpose of your experiences and what value do they have for your future. Examine them carefully but don’t become obsessed. Obsession can be a negative and wearing expression of energy.
Put your creative self to work. Create new circumstances consciously. Remember that “man is not the creature of circumstances, but circumstances are the creatures of men.” -Benjamin Disraeli. Time and space are indicated in the horoscope by the axis of the 1st and 7th house and the 4th and 10th house. The 1st and 7th represents space while the 4th and 10th represents time. Time and space solve all problems.
Neptune is in the 28th degree of Aquarius. This fog that surrounds our greater purpose has not yet become clear. Soon Neptune will go direct and enter the sign of Pisces where everything will become much better defined. Greater illumination is possible for all who are sensitive to their surroundings.
Keep things in perspective.

The Present
Sometimes progress is slow and tedious. But you have to stay in the game. Challenge yourself to perform better. Be patient but don’t hold yourself back. It’s a balance that is always difficult to manage. If you push yourself too hard, you may do damage but if you don’t push yourself hard enough, you won’t see results. The first step is the most difficult in a long journey.
With the Sun going into the sign of Scorpio, you will be probing the secrets of the ages. This is always a good time to dig into your own psyche and determine what needs to be done. Clear out the cobwebs and brighten the place up. You will feel much more organized and you will feel much stronger.
You may be feeling a little like Hansel and Gretel. You may find yourself leaving pebbles along your path. If your travels lead you to unknown places and situations, you will be able to find your way back. Sign on for the adventure. Good fortune follows the courageous one.
Plan to take on a new project. You may be bored with your current routine. It doesn’t have to be a work project. It could be an exercise program or some beneficial and fun project. Don’t be consumed with advancement. Relax and live a little.

Liberty & Justice For All
Astrologically speaking, justice is ruled in part by Jupiter. It is the Moon above the Earth. Or in plain English, it is wisdom above the material. Justice has a lot to do with wisdom, our own personal wisdom and the wisdom of the world population. As individuals, we influence by setting a good example but to some degree we suffer the effects of global destiny. The other part of justice is ruled by Saturn. It is the Earth above the Moon. The Earth is real and can be punishing if we are not conscious of our thoughts and actions. Justice is always balancing the two sides. Maybe on a personal level, it is the difference between what we deserve and what we think we deserve.
One of the best explanations of this concept is written in a little book entitled
As A Man Thinketh by James Allen. One of the things that is written in this book is:
“Mind is the Master-Power that moulds and makes,
And man is mind and evermore he takes
The tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills
Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills
He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass
Environment is but his looking-glass.”
We are basically responsible for our destiny, on a conscious and unconscious level. We have our beliefs rooted in religion, education and our family upbringing. All of these factors influence who we become. In many ways people are what they are brought up to be. But, there is always the possibility for more consciousness and we can upgrade our destiny if that is what we truly want. We can be just with ourselves, and, by this, we can be just with others.

Whistle While You Work
This week will be about moving forward in a real and productive way. It seems like it’s been a while since we’ve made any significant steps forward but now is the time. Sometimes the background noise is so loud it drowns out the message. But finally that message seems to be taking hold. For a long time the world seemed to be spinning off in many directions. A consolidation has taken place and there is a movement that brings to task the current standard practices.
All of the things going on around us can only add to the need for a secure and timeless philosophy. A philosophy is needed that can sustain us during trying and difficult times. This inner strength must be brought about from within. You can’t get from other people what you don’t have in yourself. Most everything is generated from within ourselves. We have to build our inner core to be able to withstand the forces of life. We also must move in harmony with the forces of nature. This will give us inner peace.
Remember to exercise your options. Make changes that don’t defeat your purpose. There are a range of solutions that you can employ if you look at the situation from different angles. Don’t get pigeon holed. Expand your horizons and make life a little more interesting. Put a little pepper in it.

All is Vanity
Everything is a balancing act. Trying to keep your daily routine in check so that you don’t become physically or mentally exhausted isn’t so easy. Remember to take baby steps when you are starting a new project. A long journey begins with just one step. With 4 planets in Libra this week, it is a good week to make adjustments to your balancing act.
You are feeling very energetic with Mars in the sign of Leo. Leo is a masculine, fixed, fire sign so organization is at the forefront of your thinking. Plan your work and work your plan. Don’t over do it or you could injure yourself and cause a set back that would delay the outcome. It is good that you feel intent on gaining a solution but you risk alienating the people that will assist you. Don’t let your ego get in the way.
Jupiter is in the sign of Taurus. Taurus rules personal finances in the archetype. This should allow you to manipulate your balance sheet in way that will take the financial pressure off until you find a sustainable source of new income.
Better to be an optimist, you pay the same price.

Hat-Trick
Things come in threes or at least that’s what they say. That’s often true in astrology where a planet will approach an aspect to another planet and then go retrograde and then go direct. This can happen 2 or 3 times especially with the slower moving planets like Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Usually the planets are giving you a chance to warm up to the kind of changes that you will need to be making. By the 3rd approach, you should be much less resistant to the influences of the planets.
Basically, the astrology chart gives you a plan to work with. You can upgrade your destiny. We all can. But the influences of the planets are always going to play themselves out on some level. The level of manifestation is where you can influence destiny and use free will. Planets influence; through their own nature, by position, by disposition and by ricochet (to the opposite house and sign).
Mars will always be Mars. But Mars in Capricorn will manifest differently from Mars in Aries. Mars in Capricorn is disposed by Saturn. Mars in Aries is in domicile and therefore manifests itself more true to the nature of Mars because Mars is the ruler of Aries.
Hard aspects are designed to soften our position toward certain situations. If we become more crystallized and intransient, it will be felt much more harshly than if we learn to yield to the forces of nature. We have to struggle to be in harmony with nature and when we accomplish this, things miraculously move in our favor.

The Die is Cast
Sometimes you just have to go forward with your own truth. You have to cross the line of no return. That being said, you are the one who pays for it. We all pay for what we want and we pay for what we don’t want. This is one of the hardships of life. We really can’t have everything. We have to make choices. Once you’ve made your choices, it requires discipline and work for them to manifest.
It’s good to contemplate some of the more serious aspects of life and to learn to concentrate. 24 hours a day is not too much and it can be done without the feeling of being weighed down. Perspective is important. It depends on whether we see our life as 80 or 90 years in length or a continuation over centuries, a kind of everlasting life. This is a choice too and affects the way that we solve problems. Remember you can’t take it with you (at least not the material things).
Character is destiny. We see that very clearly in the horoscope. The first house of character is the cause of the tenth house, destiny. You could also say that the first house of personality is the cause of the tenth house, profession. I might even take it a step further and say that “who is good enough for the bed, is good enough for the table.” There are countless applications in astrology that you could apply to this single scenario.
These are good times, astrologically, to think about who you really are.

Rain Just Keeps Falling
Making changes in our point of view requires having been awakened in some way. Something jolts us from our sleep. We become more conscious through our unique experiences that shape and change the way that we see things. In a way, we are locked in our unconscious. To become conscious requires a catalyst of some kind. It may simply be some imperceptible or passing thought or idea that takes us in a new direction. We are all catalysts when we share our thoughts and ideas with others.
We should accept that everyone is entitled to their point of view even when it doesn’t agree with our own. We grow through our experiences and the experiences of other people. We can show compassion and empathy for the experiences of others which broaden our own knowledge and self understanding. Listening is one of the most valuable abilities.
Expressing ourselves is our right and we can do this as long as we are mindful of other people’s opinions and their right of expression. Ultimately all of these thoughts become things. Things are tangible and become difficult to manage. So having things is a burden as well as a blessing. Choose your things wisely.
Hippocrates said it best; “Life is short, art is long, experience gained with much pain, judgment highly difficult.”

A Negative Victory
It’s really all in the details. People change right before your very eyes, but slowly and imperceptibly. If you are an observant human being, you can see this transformation as it unfolds. However, it may be very subtle and difficult to see. It’s important to be vigilant so that you don’t miss some important developments.
The personality is shown in the horoscope by the ascendant. The astrological sign that you have rising reflects your persona. In astrology, this is 80% the most important thing because it shows how you receive the planetary influences. How you see yourself and others is critical to the outcome.
“Man is not the creature of circumstances but circumstances are the creatures of men.” –Benjamin Disraeli. How we see our life and others create the circumstances that we encounter. It begins with us. We are the creators of our own destiny. Character is destiny.
There will be opportunities to clear up misunderstandings that may have occurred. This will bring harmony and peace of mind to your current situation.
The personality is shown in the horoscope by the ascendant. The astrological sign that you have rising reflects your persona. In astrology, this is 80% the most important thing because it shows how you receive the planetary influences. How you see yourself and others is critical to the outcome.

Gotcha
Mercury moving direct will free you to complete any transactions that may have been on the back burner. Take action on problems that have been lingering for sometime. Get your cues from a good chess player and use foresight in formulating your next move. Mercury is in the sign of Leo. Leo is a masculine, fixed, fire sign. With Mercury in Leo, you have the feeling that things spin around you like a centrifuge. This planetary placement doesn’t necessarily indicate introspection but could reflect self-aggrandizement.
Don’t be led into a trap by your own short sightedness. Look down the road a bit and see where your actions will ultimately lead. Foresight is the mother of invention. When you go for immediate satisfaction, you may set yourself up for an unexpected fall. Better to take a more far reaching approach and consider the many possibilities that are foreseeable.
Mars in the sign of Cancer and Saturn in the sign of Libra were just in an exact square aspect. The square between these two planets, Mars and Saturn cause conflicts with the environment and problems with timing. Either you are too early or too late. Now that this exact aspect has passed you will be clearer about the timing of important matters.

Exit Stage Left
This is a good time to change tracks. There is an abundance of consternation about which track to pursue but now is the time to take a chance. Make the change. When an opportunity arises, take it. Finally, you feel calm and confident enough to make a leap of faith. These last months have been treacherous with little change or opportunity for mobility.
Create a brave new world in your own environment. Risk is anxiety provoking. Nevertheless, be bold. Good fortune follows the courageous one. It is part of our instincts to take the path most travelled. We feel more secure when we think that we can predict the outcome of a situation. This is really illusory and we should use intelligence and wisdom to choose the most beneficial path.
A division of wisdom and intelligence causes an unbalanced approach to life. Intelligence is youthful and accompanies our decision making process. Wisdom is a riper approach that results in using experience to find solutions.
The planets are always moving, providing us with new options. It is when we become crystallized in our thinking that we can’t advance our purpose. Flexibility combined with values that are developed influence our psychology and create success.
Life is a landscape that can be changed and improved by creativity and personal involvement. It can be used to help us find comfort in being ourselves. It is a backdrop to finding our individual identity. Life is a relationship with ourselves. Know yourself and you will know the others.

Great Expectations
The week begins with the feeling of lingering anxiety. Planetary influences dictate a continued environment of agitation and insecurity. You can moderate these feelings by staying focused on the present. You can be in the moment. By putting the focus on the here and now, you will block the surrounding feelings of doubt and desperation.
You can establish a lighter and brighter outlook by using the solar influences of the sign of Leo. There are 3 planets in Leo now which are the Sun, Mercury and Venus. These can shore up your sense of insecurity by giving you the power to be yourself. Look around you and see that you are not the only one having these experiences.
Try to engage other people in dialogue that is inspiring and creative. Think of things that you can do to make your life and the life of others more pleasant. Do something relaxing and therapeutic. Devote your energy to things that will make you feel happy and more satisfied with your life.
Eliminate things around you that are not working for you. When you eliminate something, you are likely to replace it with something else. Make sure that your replacement is superior to what you are discarding. Take control over matters that are within your expertise and allow others to help you when they have more experience.
This is a good time to reevaluate your financial situation.

Not So Willy-Nilly
Powerful planetary influences make exact aspects during this week. Pluto square Uranus and Pluto opposed to Mars. These volatile planetary influences threaten to mix things up. As if things are not confusing enough these influences bring to light the serious changes that need to be addressed before transitioning to a calmer and collected state of being.
Major changes are underfoot, although they have not been formed completely. Details will emerge slowly in the future.
Embrace the new energy that will be produced in this planetary cocktail. It is possible to convert negative emotions into positive actions. It requires stepping into the problem and not over reacting to passing circumstances. Character is destiny.
Mercury is retrograde and will cycle back in the sign of Leo. This will give you a trio of planets in Leo; the Sun, Mercury &Venus. This is a festive group. They like to have fun and play games. This can lead to real fun or ostentatious behavior. In any case, there will be plenty of shenanigans to keep you amused.
Do the times bring about the man, or does the man bring about the times? It’s probably a combination of both. The psychological influences the physical and the physical influences the psychological. The “human spirit” is a miraculous thing and we are endlessly surprised by it’s power.

Circling the Drain
This week can be characterized as a “slow death.” There is a self centeredness that dominates the decision making process. People are locked in their unconscious. The character of people becomes evident under these circumstances. When there are no avenues of escape, the true nature is exposed.
You can play life as a comedy or a tragedy…that is your choice. The former is best as people don’t really have pity. In the end, you always have to take responsibility for your actions. It is a conundrum.
It’s the little things that cause us to become depressed. It’s the accumulation of the daily debris of life that you don’t get around to dealing with that causes anxiety. You have to be thorough and complete tasks. You can then move on to the next thing without being weighed down by uncertainty.
Simplify as many things as possible. This will produce a happier environment for you to conduct your everyday business. It lightens the load. Get in harmony with nature and you will feel much less resistance.
Mercury goes retrograde during the week and will allow you to review your progress before making any other decisions that could impede your development. You will need to anticipate the interferences that might result in an unanticipated outcome.

Hard Ball
There are inner battles that are keeping us up these days. It is impossible to resolve these battles without the input from many different sources. Many of these influences are apparent while some are still submerged. It makes compromise impossible...Until the hidden motives come to the surface, there will be no consensus. Sleeplessness seems to be the norm for now.
Crafty people spin the story to benefit themselves. Other crafty people spin the story to benefit themselves. It is important to serve the needs of the many and not the few. Needs have to come under scrutiny as well and require making judgments. What is a need and what is not necessary is very hard to determine. Basically, all human beings have the same needs.
If we have no enemies, then we have no friends. It is impossible to please all of the people all of the time. Your priorities guide your thinking to some degree but you should be able to compromise so that others can achieve their priorities, too. Fairness should prevail.
It’s time to cut to the chase. Razor sharp instincts will dominate the conversation. Design a plan that will deliver the results you desire. Don’t get lost in a maze of egotistical wanderings. You can’t afford it.

Lost in Paradise
The week ahead can be summed up by concluding that it will be close encounters with the third kind. Insanity seems to be the prevailing condition, or is it?. Reality is hard to recognize. It is usually veiled in many different disguises and depending on who you are, takes on your own personal psychological imprint. It is pretty predictable to the trained eye what people are going to do. We learn what to expect from them. We think we are acting out of character when we are really just following our destiny. Free will is difficult to access. You have to work to free yourself of generations of thinking to use free will.
Since everything worth having is worth working for, we start by taking one step. One step is the beginning of a long journey. Really it is that first step that is the most uncertain but we can build our confidence slowly. This is the job of evolution that is before us. We cannot hesitate.
Pride is the biggest obstacle of all. It is good to have pride in what you have accomplished but pride shields you from a lot of important ideas and emotions. Careful examination of the topic leads me to believe that it isn’t all that important. Be real and forget about your pride.
“Delay is the deadliest form of denial.” This is a quote from a British naval historian by the name of C. Northcote Parkinson. This theme plays itself out on the many stages of life in the near and unforeseeable future.

Flummoxed
You may be feeling like you aren’t getting any cooperation from those close to you. This is natural given the placement of the planets which are scattered here and there. However, the Sun and Moon are in trine aspect and this will result in a stronger focus on the subject at hand. It seems that everything is getting out of control but you shouldn’t be concerned with controlling the situation but rather you should try to blend in with what is happening. Be a cog in the wheel.
World wide there is a breaking down of long held beliefs and institutions. All of these are undergoing an evolution. This takes time and will eventually result in a more workable situation going forward. Let go of your own ingrained beliefs so as to make room for new ideas and new ways of doing things.
Eliminate worry from your daily life. It won’t really change anything and it shows in your face. Have foresight and act accordingly. When you look ahead, you will make better decisions for the future. If you don’t look ahead…look out!
The horoscope indicates your physical fitness. It shows your genetic predisposition and the way that you treat yourself. You can work with or against yourself. That is a choice.
Remember that winning means to win against yourself.

Ghosts of Christmas Past
Sometimes it takes a powerful reminder in the present to unlock memories of the past. Our experiences often are responsible for unearthing these psychological barriers. We are our own doctor in many ways. The psychological influences the physical and the physical influences the psychological.
This week presents an opportunity to begin the unraveling of your inner most tensions. You are inclined to be more introspective than usual and are willing to delve into matters that create some discomfort to you emotionally. If you are going to dig, don’t dig halfway.
Remembering is what causes human beings to suffer. Without memory we could move ahead fearlessly and face difficult situations without any hesitation. But it is our memories that put a damper on things. Maybe you need to take another look at these memories to put them in a healthier perspective. Everything is good and bad at the same time.
People are often attracted to astrology for the purpose of protection. If they can determine what influences they will encounter, they can prepare themselves. Spontaneity is well prepared.

Lightning is Striking Again
You have to develop a method of dissipating your feelings of anger or they will build up in your system as just another toxin. Your psychology is just as much a factor in your health as what you eat and your genetic predisposition. In fact, you can use your free will to influence genetic predisposition. You can make yourself healthier or less healthy and it is your choice.
Step up to situations that give you anxiety and find a solution to the problems that have been troubling you. It’s not the people around you that are the problem.
The healing has to take place within yourself. Health is the result of a healthy body and a healthy mind. Let go of your fears and anxieties. You can free yourself.
Unusual situations are going to be a daily occurrence in the years to come. The Planet Uranus is in the sign of Aries and will be making aspects to the planets in your chart. This will bring many chances for renewal as Aries is a spring sign. It is a sign of new beginnings. It is a youthful sign. Uranus always brings about the unexpected.
Bring yourself to life. Nothing will happen if you aren’t motivated. Try to move in harmony with nature. You will find this much less exhausting. Look around you will see that nature holds the key to many human problems.

Different Strokes for Different Folks
This week brings about many possibilities for changing your current status. You may need to clear up your communications so that you present a definitive idea in a way that will be understood perfectly. If you are clear about what you want, then it will be easier for others to indentify whether or not you can assist them. If you have something substantial to offer, now is the time to let everyone know about it.
You may feel slightly fatigued by all the tension that has been hanging in the air. This is replaced by a more energetic feeling. Many activities are keeping you busy but you need to make sure that you are utilizing your time and energy efficiently. Also, be conscious about what you are eating. Diet has a strong influence on your psychology. Quantity is more important than quality. Make sure you eat enough but not too much. After that, eat healthy fruits and vegetables. These foods are less taxing on your system.
Be aware that any events that take place around the 1st of July will determine what is to follow during the coming 9 months. Everything is cause and effect but this particular date has special significance. Remember that commitment is a very important part of success and that each step you take reinforces your determination. Every long journey begins with just one step.

The Simple Contains The Complex
The bulls are raging and the bears are dancing. It is pure chaos everywhere. Maybe Freud was right when he wrote about the herd instinct. It seems that we are headed toward fate. Free will on the other hand could deliver us from this dilemma of our own making but it is very difficult to implement. To engage free will, we have to individuate. This will take us far from the herd mentality.
Given that it takes us human beings a long time to make personality changes, it is best to take the long term approach. Foresight is the mother of invention. The long road is often more arduous but usually it delivers a lot more understanding. I suppose we are focused on our own personal dramas and this prevents us from looking too far ahead. There are advantages and disadvantages to both paths of action.
The wheels of justice grind slowly. Don’t look for others to fail but concentrate on your own desire to succeed. We are not in a position to judge others. We only see things from our own perspective which may not be all that accurate. Do what is best for yourself and you will be doing what is best for others. But shouldn’t you also be for others?
As King Solomon said, “there is nothing new under the Sun.”

Clear As A Bell
While most matters take on a practical aspect this week, many new ideas are popping into your head. You may be a little slow at processing all of these new ideas but you are feeling patient and will take the time to sort through them. This is a good time to establish priorities. You need to become much more efficient in dealing with detail. You have previously felt overwhelmed by having to deal with this issue but now you are willing to take charge.
Your efforts don’t go unnoticed. You will start to be compensated for your hard work. It has been a long time since you have felt appreciated and been remunerated. Your life is changing in many ways that are not completely clear to you yet. However, in the coming months you will see a whole new emergence of your personality. It will emerge with many of the changes that you have worked long and hard for.
Your rut is becoming a thing of the past. You have finally found a path out of it and have made serious progress in moving into new digs. This will lighten your persona and give you added energy that you desperately need. You have been dragging for a while now. Brighten your perspective and get moving forward.
Good fortune follows the courageous one.

So Much for So Few and So Little for So Many
We’re all feeling a bit fuzzy. Something under the surface is trying to emerge. We’ve spent months getting prepared to leave our rut. But have we done everything that we need to do before making our final departure? Are we leaving behind a chaotic mess or is this an orderly transition to the next level of consciousness?
Hopefully, we are all going to change. We are clearing space for new experiences with the wisdom to give more depth and understanding to our daily lives. It is all in the way you look at it. We can give positive meaning to our lives in big and small ways.
Change is the constant, so get moving. Take action. Good results are assured.

Word Games
Just the facts, if only this were possible. We spend most of our lives living with small pieces of the puzzle. Our puzzle piece connects us to other people’s puzzle piece and so on it goes. We are locked into a position that we may or may not be that happy with. As human beings we are locked in our unconscious. So the question is, “how do we access free will?” Our free will lies in our ability to change ourselves. By changing ourselves, we change the way that other people communicate with us.
Procrastination is a technique used to delay making any decisions that can move us ahead. We choose to stay with the familiar as it doesn’t create anxieties that we fear we can’t cope with. Anxiety is practically impossible to avoid but it is much more manageable when we give it some direction. By giving direction it cuts down on the amount of paralysis that we feel when we are under a great deal of pressure. Really we are just trying to balance our nature.
You may feel like you would just like something permanent that you can count on. You would like some form of security that won’t be taken away. This does seem like a reasonable request except that change is the real stabilizer. It’s the flow of ideas and energy that give you confidence and security. Money is known as “frozen energy”. It doesn’t provide the kind of security that is stabilizing, although, you need it. You are balancing yourself against the many demands that life makes on you. Bring yourself life.

Win or Lose, You Pay
Don’t let people judge your ideas as they are your own interpretation of life as you see it. This may create conflict with others who are not able to discuss alternate points of view without making value judgments. Still it is your right to state your perspective. This doesn’t mean that you are trying to inflict your ideas on other people but you must defend your right to your point of view. This is something that you should feel comfortable sharing without the feeling of censorship. If you can’t, get some new friends.
Most people are looking for positive reinforcement and sometimes you can give it. However, you should be truthful or you won’t help yourself in the long run. It is always better to point things out in a nice way. This takes practice. You will probably make mistakes that will lead to personal disputes. Take it lightly. You can be civil with people even if you see things differently. It’s a two way street.
Money talks! That’s a common belief. However, there are many other things that come into play. Concentrate on your personal power. This is the power that you have over yourself. This will go a long way in setting your thinking apart from the crowd.
Unravel your psychology and reorganize it to be inclusive. Be optimistic, you pay the same price.

Alpha & Omega
These past weeks have been filled with intensity. This may have put you out of your comfort zone. You may be experiencing some stress related ailments which will resolve on their own. Time and space solve all problems.
There are five planets currently in Aries, but this will soon pass and many planets will occupy the sign of Taurus. Hang in there a bit longer and you will attain the inner peace that you have been working toward. Aries is a very active sign and is known in astrology as the “lamb of God”. Taurus is about comfort and the exchange of values. It is good to enjoy the attributes of all the zodiacal signs.
Some issues have come to a conclusion. This is always good even if it wasn’t the outcome that you had hoped for. Endings bring about new beginnings. You can now lay aside any plans that don’t have a future. Move on to new ideas that will bring you hope and satisfaction.
Remember “there is a time for every purpose under heaven”. All things have their cycles. Life and death are in the nature of things. In fact, there is no life without death. The French say that we should “think on death”.
The future is bright. Be ready to participate.

Tremors prevent us from inhaling and exhaling completely. Also, we harm ourselves by not breathing deeply enough. It might be a good idea to learn to breathe properly via yoga or some form of martial art. This creates good oxygenation in the body. Definitely this cannot be underestimated. Also, it goes along nicely with meditation which can be practiced 24 hours a day.
So take a deep breath and you will feel calmer in dealing with unexpected or difficult situations. Don’t overreact and others will not be able to act harshly toward you. You draw the line invisibly. They can’t see it but they will definitely feel it. When you act civilly, it forces others into the same behavior.
Benjamin Disraeli said, “Man is not the creature of circumstances, but circumstances are the creatures of men”. You create your own circumstances. If we want to change our lives we have to work on ourselves. By changing ourselves, we change other people. This is the right thinking.
Going out on a limb proves to be an unnecessary risk. Contain yourself. Reduce risk. Get the job done without making any promises that you will not be able to deliver. Depend mostly on yourself.

No Easy Road
You might want to use this coming week as an opportunity to loosen your grip. Otherwise you might be mistaken for a control freak. The planetary influences are kicking off a successful week if you will just heed the signals. This means being tuned into what is happening around you. You must consciously make an effort to be vigilant.
You have a burning desire to rush things. This is not a good idea. You have momentum but you must learn to pace yourself. This will allow you to take in important information before moving on to the next step. Patience is the only virtue. There will be many opportunities to accelerate in the near future but for now go slowly.
People around you may sense your eagerness. This could be good as long as they don’t feel too threatened by it. People tend to feel threatened when they can’t anticipate what you are going to do next. At least appear to be predictable. Of course, nothing is predictable but we do have patterns of behavior and thinking.
The influence of Neptune is not currently registering in our conscious mind. This makes us feel a little uncertain. We are now learning to step out of our old shells and into a new one. This requires some maneuvering. Try to slip out of one skin and into another seamlessly. You don’t want to attract a lot of attention.

A Double Game
All people come to life from different perspectives. We cannot judge another person as we, as mere mortals don’t see the whole picture. We learn to tolerate other points of view. That concept renders the best results. Many people think others are like they are. In fact, what we most like in other people is what is in ourselves. And what we most dislike in people is also in ourselves.
Today, we are witnessing the fact that many schisms exist. This does not allow for a harmonious outcome. It doesn’t allow different aspects to coalesce around a given ideology. Rather it creates interferences. These interferences are what make prediction very uncertain. Unfortunately, it is uncertainty that causes a lot of people a great deal of anxiety and ultimately causes them to be depressed.
But these experiences can be recycled into positive catalysts to change. Change isn’t an easy thing yet it is the only constant. It comes from seeing all situations and circumstances as opportunities. Although, we experience many set backs, these are a reminder that nothing is accomplished without struggle. These aggravations create real game changers. The key to success is keeping your peace of mind. Eventually, everything will become clear.

Let The Good Times Roll
Although four planets and the Sun in Aries give a lot of energy that you may be able to harness, it also creates an inordinate amount of impatience. You don’t want to read the whole thing. You skim through a few pages and become irritated and impatient. Aries doesn’t like to go step by step. In fact, many Aries want to jump away from the earth. You must develop your patience as it is the only virtue. As edgy as you may be feeling, you must allow methodical hard work to prevail. Don’t take any short cuts at this time.
Pluto in Capricorn square Mars in Aries is showing you the caution sign. Many great achievements have been ruined through lack of patience. This is something that all of us have to work on life long. Don’t be hard on yourself and don’t be hard on the others. Develop tolerance and don’t make judgments as we as human beings cannot see the whole picture. We need to trust that there is justice in the universe. Unless you would like to make a citizen’s arrest, I suggest you go about your own business.
Neptune has just entered the sign of Pisces and this brings about a lack of clarity. Your boundaries can become blurred. This planet will be in Pisces for a very long time except for a short retrograde period where it briefly returns to the sign of Aquarius. Get ready for a prolonged period of chaos and lack of clear objectives that may take time to sort out. This will be especially true of world events. When it comes to your own personal chart, you can make all the planetary influences work for you. It just takes practice.

A Sisyphean Task
This week watch out for people with obvious ulterior motives taking charge of the situation. Patience is the only virtue. By waiting until they become transparent, you won’t have to show your motives. Allow others to make their own observations and do not confront anyone directly. Stay in the background at least for the moment.
Fools rush in…don’t do it. This week is filled with pot holes of all sorts. You can’t afford a broken ankle. Stay vigilant and look for clues about what is really going on. It may seem obvious but is more complicated than you imagine.
There are all sorts of cowboys out in the general populace. They are big risk takers who are happy to take you along for the ride. Enjoy the show but don’t get involved. Caution is imperative at this time. Many planets in Aries lead to impetuous behavior. This can be damaging to your security and reputation.
Overall, use this period of time to get your own projects off the ground. Avoid the politics that may leave you the “loser”. However, “no politics is a politics”. You pay for what you want and you pay for what you don’t want. Make the choice that agrees with your temperament. Your health depends on it.

Water Off A Duck's Back
If you feel like others are taking advantage of your kind nature you need to let them know that they have gone too far. Show them your teeth! With 4 planets in the sign of Aries, you can bet that there are lots of inconsiderate actions happening out there. You don’t have to take it personally, people will be people. Some are reasonable but some people don’t know what that means.
All these planets in Aries have a good side too. They are ruled by Mars and give the needed boost of energy that will be required to put your plans in place. The week begins with the Moon in Capricorn so don’t expect to feel too enthusiastic until later in the week. Capricorn is ruled by the mountain goat and goes step by step. Don’t rush or you may find you have Teflon hooves.
You may see holes blown through a lot of good ideas during this week. Don’t be disheartened. Keep advocating for what you want. Eventually, someone will see your point of view. You have to keep searching for ways to develop your ideas. This is a difficult task but will be aided by favorable planetary aspects in the near future.
Have a philosophy that will resonate with others and that you can recite while standing on one leg. “Don’t do to the others what you wouldn’t like done to you.” Life is simple if you don’t want anything from it. Take the high road.

Take The Plunge
Procrastination has become a way of life. Did you ever have to make up your mind? Making a choice is pain staking at this point in time. You must choose even if you are not inclined to do so. Remember that every advantage has a disadvantage so choice is really a trade off of sorts. You pay for what you want and you pay for what you don’t want.
Sometimes you have to be a chess player. You move up in rank and file. Some advancement is necessary. It’s a double game. Life is also a double game. There is the practical side and the spiritual side of it. You are trying to balance them. You will find yourself at one extreme or another until you find the middle ground.
You don’t feel up to the task that is ahead of you but you will see that you have lots of energy in the coming months that will allow you to get things up and running. Go slowly and you will arrive sooner.
Organize your thoughts and actions. Put them into play. Take up a new sport or hobby that will allow you to enjoy your spare time. Don’t worry, be happy.

Clear the Decks
Finally you won’t feel like you are chasing your tail. Things have been freed up in the universe and this allows you to move forward with purpose. You also will have a little bit of luck too and this turns a mediocre situation into a really good one. Mercury, Jupiter and Uranus are all in the sign of Aries and Aries know how to get things done.
Many forces are at work to support your strategy. Having a strategy is very important. You have to plan your work and work your plan. Once you get moving in a direction everything else will follow. You can eliminate the constant deliberations that have created a lot of anxiety for you lately. You may feel hesitant but you have to push yourself to move ahead.
It seems that for months a kind of cloud has been hanging over your head and now in a split second it will be lifted and you will feel a great sense of relief. Any health issues that have been dragging on will suddenly become a faint memory. In fact, a lot of things will clear up. Your thinking will become sharp and you will know exactly how to proceed.
All things are both good and bad at the same time. It’s often a matter of perception although some things are dire and less easy to look at in a positive way. The best medicine is foresight. When you take action, think about what the long term effects will be. By taking the long road, you will be prepared for every situation.

A Shot Across the Bow
Values are the things that differentiate one human being from another. Good values or bad values, it doesn’t matter, both lead to the same realization. When we fall in love, this leads to the “overestimation of the sexual object” as noted by Freud. Sometimes these projections are impossible to live up too. No one can fill these shoes. This brings me to the conclusion that you should expect a lot from yourself. To thine own self be true.
Be yourself and know yourself. By this, you will know the others and they will know you. You have to start with a solid premise. No great friendship can be built on a weak foundation. You have to bring the house down and rebuild it if necessary. You have to understand the basic building blocks. Most of all, you have to apply them.
Some influences may seem to be undermining your efforts. This is a temporary situation and should be ignored. Forge ahead with plans and don’t get sucked into quarterbacking. Let the others get their signals from sacred places.
New energy is moving in your direction. Get ready to follow the jet stream.

How it Begins is How it Ends
It is really important to enjoy the moment. It’s easy to spend a lot of time dwelling in the past. Also, you can develop a lot of anxiety contemplating the future. If you can be in the moment, you will create a harmonious environment that will allow you to be quite productive. All changes that affect the future must be made in the present. The past, present and future coexist.
Give yourself permission to enjoy yourself. It’s good to plan and put a structure in place but you have to have fun too. Otherwise, life becomes like a treadmill. It becomes a series of unconscious habits that lead to an unrewarding existence. Bring yourself to life, get into the moment and live each day to the fullest.
There are many planetary aspects coming up that will allow you to awaken the unconscious. By bringing things into the conscious, you can deal with them in a constructive way. This, of course, requires making an effort but is well worth it.
As long as things remain unconscious they can create mayhem.
Discuss your feelings with people who are causing you discomfort. By making your feelings clear, you allow them to respond to what is really concerning you. Otherwise, you are just complicating the issue. Always simplify. The simple contains the complex.

It's All in the Way You Look At It
Bring down the wall of worry. This should be first on your list of things to do. Of course, you do have a list. This is the beginning of a very productive period and you will find yourself accomplishing a lot of things that you have had on the back burner. Amazing things happen when you put your mind to it. You feel the power of your own actions.
The Sun has just entered the sign of Pisces and this may cause you to feel a little nostalgic. Don’t spend too much time dwelling in the past. Changes have to be made in the present and you will further realize their benefit in the future. Now is the time to take action. There are many paths that you can follow but all of them lead to the same place. Hesitation will only reinforce your feelings of anxiety. Move ahead with confidence.
Mercury, Mars & Neptune are exactly conjunct in the sign Aquarius. This trio will deliver needed support from friends. Be gracious when others give their advice. But remember the old adage, “I can save myself from my enemies, but God save me from my friends.” You’ll do best to weigh carefully your options and rely on your own good judgment.
Indulge yourself in some personal service. Relax and enjoy some free time. Don’t overbook yourself as you will find that it is quite draining. If you don’t get it all done, there is always tomorrow.

Where's Waldo?
You may be feeling like you are not getting the kind of support that you expect. But, there is a definite shift in favor of your thinking. Be patient and you will get what you have honestly worked for. You may be doubting yourself, however, you must take a leap of faith. You must know that things will work out.
You are undergoing many major changes in personality and this takes years to assimilate. You are aware of the conflicts that this creates and you are making the necessary adjustments that will allow you to grow emotionally and spiritually. This process can be uncomfortable at best and requires your continued drive. This process is never really over but will elevate you to a new level of understanding which is a great reward in itself.
You have a growing cast of admirers. This is not as important as the need for positive reinforcement. When people see you succeeding, they want to know how you do it. Their admiration is based on something that they can actually see.
All of us want to realize ourselves. This can be done through directing our attention and through our ability to accept setbacks that always occur in the scope of life experiences. It is your skill at keeping your boat righted through all kinds of storms in the vast sea of the unconscious that sets you apart from the rest.

A Breath of Fresh Air
Your current situation is still not running as smoothly as you would like but be patient and in time things will begin to take shape. There are many planetary configurations that indicate that you are on the brink of a breakthrough. It feels like you are in another holding pattern and that you can’t gain access to information that you need to make a decisive choice. Time is on your side, so don’t do anything rash.
This is a good time to get together with friends that you haven’t seen for sometime. They can offer you some fresh ideas and take away from your fixation on certain matters. Try to get outdoors where you can enjoy the Sun and air. You need to divert your attention away from areas that cause anxiety and planning activities is a good way to counteract this tendency.
Jupiter recently entered the sign of Aries so this should bring about some important personal changes. Changing the way you approach other people can open new doors for you. Listen carefully to what they are saying because the answer is contained in the question.
The unconscious is far more powerful than the conscious so it is important to learn what lies beneath the surface. This is a process that will take years but you now find a place to get on the path. This will lead to the unfolding of your consciousness and allow you to direct your will more effectively.

Give to Caesar What Belongs to Caesar...
You must close one door before you can open another. Nothing comes across more clearly than this. Letting go of situations that have outlived their usefulness will allow you to move forward into the future. We often forget how hard it is to leave some attachments behind as there always seems to be a reason to hold on. It is fear of the unknown and as long as you are a human being, fear of the unknown will always be with you.
Forge ahead with projects that have been on the back burner. There is no time like the present to put these ideas out there and start to build on their reality. You have been in a holding pattern for some time and now you must break free and spring into action. You may feel some anxiety about it but you have to overcome it. A whole new dimension of life is ahead, you just have to kick it off.
You still don’t have a view of the whole picture but continue to follow your instincts. You will come to know the truth if you pursue it. However, the truth always changes. Know one really ever knows the truth but people will always seek it. Practically speaking, keep your attention on the day to day activities of life and eventually you will arrive to your desired goals.

High Times
Hopefully there won’t be any weeks ahead that will be as difficult as last week. It was impossible on every level. Luckily, it is now in the past. This week starts out on a more civilized note. People around you won’t seem like they are going to eat you for dinner, in fact, they may seem more like they would like to invite you to dinner. There is no accounting for these extreme swings of attitude.
Jupiter in just entering the sign of Aries and this will be great for making decisions. Previously there has been a lack of commitment, but now it is time to make a choice. No more wavering. The trend will pick up even more steam when Uranus enters Aries and that will be in mid-March.
The Sun just entered the sign of Aquarius which is a more sociable sign and much less critical than the sign of Capricorn. This alone will dissolve a great deal of tension that you have been feeling. Also, Saturn will go retrograde and this will provide you with some time to review any future plans. Saturn will remain retrograde until the middle of June so this will present an extended cooling down period.
Work on yourself so that you can relax without the use of alcohol or tobacco. These actually ultimately leave you more anxious. Get more exercise and liberate your thinking. Relax your expectations and try to work on short term goals that give you some satisfaction.

Bring Yourself to Life
These conditions can’t last. You may feel like you are on a wheel going around and around without really getting anywhere. We seem to be experiencing a holding pattern of some kind. This is sometimes necessary before your final approach. With 3 planets in Capricorn, you will find it easy to be patient. You may however, feel concerned about what is going to happen next. Anxiety comes from too much foresight, so don’t look too far ahead.
The Moon is in Gemini which sends your thoughts racing. You react quickly to situations and spend a great deal of energy on theorizing about what to do next. It is important to end the "idea" portion of your planning and get into the "doing" part. You have to put your ideas into action. Thinking is now a luxury you can’t afford.
Your emotions are driven by a desire to complete your aspirations. You want to see the results of your hard work. There is plenty of evidence of your work, but it has yet to culminate. Your desired goal has not completely manifested. Keep working your plan until you achieve the desired results.
Catch up on some needed rest. You have been expending a great deal of energy and you may need to compensate by eating good food and taking it easy. You don’t have to drive yourself so hard all the time. Be your own friend.

High Anxiety
Try to get to the bottom of your anxieties and what triggers them. You may feel a little jumpy these days and a seemingly unimportant event puts you into an anxious and tense mood. This is normal on occasion but if you find yourself slipping into this frame of mind often, you need to really look into yourself. Once you identify what it is that causes this, you will be able to get a hold of yourself.
We human beings are very vulnerable and most of the time we travel through life without a thought. Once in a while, events occur that cause us to see that we are just grains of sand. We are not very big or powerful in the scope of things. We want to feel safe and secure in the world but it takes some faith and belief in higher influences. We want to have control over our destiny and although there may not be a lot we can do, we can do something. Character is destiny.
People are what they are brought up to be. But it is also, “nature and nurture”. We can help ourselves and we can help others. We can set a good example. We all have our own ideas of how the world should be. There is no single answer. Your path in life is different than others and therefore you must answer to your own concept of higher influences. You must follow your own ethics.
We don’t always know if we are going down the right road, we have our instincts and they are not always right. We have to have the courage to follow them since they are all that we have.
We human beings are very vulnerable and most of the time we travel through life without a thought. Once in a while, events occur that cause us to see that we are just grains of sand. We are not very big or powerful in the scope of things. We want to feel safe and secure in the world but it takes some faith and belief in higher influences. We want to have control over our destiny and although there may not be a lot we can do, we can do something. Character is destiny.

Better Is The Enemy of Good
You feel the stirring of new ideas and the enthusiasm that accompanies them. This is a great way to start out the New Year. Create something in your life that you can look forward to, even if it is not immediately attainable. Naturally, these things come at first as a concept but then you must put them into action. You may have to do it in stages, as you must be well prepared. In other words, don’t bite off more than you can chew but, little by little, build your dream.
Tell everyone about what you would like to accomplish and you will find plenty of people who will help you achieve it. Everyone likes to feel like a part of this new adventure and people like to contribute ideas, time, support, etc. It may take you months or years to get this going but it can be done. You have to believe in yourself.
There are still minor details that require your attention and for a short time may detract from your primary goal. Don’t be impatient and take care of these nagging details with care. Once you have gotten these out of the way, it is “full steam ahead”.
You will begin to feel much more freedom as you make your way toward your goal. This may mean self employment or just becoming yourself while working at your job. You will not be as emotionally tied to coworkers or establishments that drain away your energy. You will break away from whatever trap you have found yourself in.
