COSMIC HOROSCOPES

"Some judgement may necessarily be passed, and if you choose to refuse any accusations or charges against you, maintain your freedom, you best have all the facts to back up your defence..."

"Is your objective of benefit to others and the greater good, or are you so caught up in enriching your egotistical profits that you deny others of their power over their resources and their creative autonomy?"

"This Full Moon is cooking up quite a test for you – some event which challenges your current position and your overall stake in the outcome. Do you have a plan on how to maintain your equilibrium in the face of crisis?"

"A question of true authenticity and integrity unconsciously riddles inside you, and you may ask whether you are fit to serve your immense need to accomplish something of real significance..."

This unrequited need for approval from others, as if a child that’s seeking reassurance from his/her parents, will either force you to conform to or contradict others’ expectations of you. In any case, your reaction may be as extreme as the expectations placed on you...

"While it feels like you’re under a tremendous amount of pressure to leave your mark, your performance must be coming from a place of genuine flair and creativity, not just another boorish song and dance..."

"Is this world not listening to you? Or are you the one not responding to its desperate cries for a positive change in how things are done?"

"The crux of this is that something has to change with you, and only you can make the decision once you come to accept that it is your subconscious need to confirm your worth by superiority that is causing all the difficulty and confusion..."

"Maybe your efforts to reach out are unrequited, or your current drop of buddies isn’t quite qualified or fit enough to provide you with the strength and courage that you need to move forward..."

"vulnerabilities and insecurities lurking in your unconscious mind begin to influence your moods in such a way that it messes with your sense of confidence and well-being..."

"There may be issues of power and control to contend with, but you must use that power to help transform the world around you, not become absorbed in selfish pursuits and games of domination and control dramas..."

"Should others at all wise up to the notion that you are basing your desired persona on a cleverly contrived, manipulative agenda, then you might sense that it’s time to rethink, review and reform some of those ideas..."

"At some point (in the next two weeks) you will face some intense force to change your ways, which you may see as an affront.."

"If you deliberately set out to compromise your true character, pandering to the whimsical needs of the community - particularly its weak and underprivileged - then your integrity may easily be under question..."

"Strong challenges during this period will stem from areas where your feelings are easily triggered..."

"Seems like your heart matters rule over your mind, and these are at risk of being influenced by prejudices that you may hold..."

"Is your whole world based on a value system that others appreciate and can work with, or are you stuck in the mud?"

"In the close, heart-to-heart ties between you and your ‘besties,’ there is a danger of grossly subjective behaviour..."

"Stuff that lies buried deep within you, things you hold secret because you feel that if they came to light might damage your character or public standing, threaten to surface and come to unnerve you somewhat..."

"If you have developed a strong affinity or connection towards a specific purpose or group identity, then be sure that you are not merely stuck on the clichés of your forebears..."

"More than other signs, you are now most prone to becoming possessed by lower entities lurking in the astral plane..."

"...lately, the immensely compulsive desire for protection and control can go to extremes when the dramas bust loose."

"You might apply a huge effort to preserve your everyday life as one reminiscent of early home environments, patterns and practices instilled in you during your childhood or past..."

"There, deep below, in the subconscious recesses of your reward-centre, lies the secret to your highly addictive, inventively escapist, hopelessly dreamy nature..."

"...you’re discovering that, after all, making a ‘living’ is not the same thing as ‘making a life’. Things need balance, because all work and no play… well, you know how it ends..."

"...you may now be under overwhelming pressure to pay special attention to or examine how you were raised to express yourself..."

"This inner agitation, linked to strong, frustrated social desires and ambitions from Saturn, can lead to some impulsive and sometimes ill-considered actions..."

"The reciprocating scales are really off-kilter now, and it’s your words that can either restore peace or launch us all into a bitter war..."

"Ask whether you’re working unnecessarily hard just to keep things together that would crumble the minute you turned your back..."

"Possessive forces that infiltrate your most significant relationships could develop into awful control dramas that are hard to manage.."

"If you have a very vague or poor idea of your own truth, then this may become a crisis for you..."

"You may be struggling with a soul that seems torn in two, not sure which way to go, like your head is telling you to stay where you are, while your heart is calling you to take off to lands unknown..."

"Unless you open yourself up and make it easier for others who need your special change-agent skills and talents to access them, you will keep making it harder for yourself..."

"Perhaps things have become a bit constricted or stagnant, and you’re fighting over menial things. This will only make you miserable..."

"This lunation may produce an incident which becomes a real moment of truth for you. You could be put on the spot, where you must demonstrate that you really have what it takes to pull off those eloquent ideas of yours..."

"Especially if you choose to engage in the interpersonal tug of war over things like comfort, security, material things and money, sex, power to manipulate one another, then you are unconsciously entering into a dangerous war..."

"Things feel like they could change at any moment and this New Moon sees you putting a lot of energy into earnestly acquiring the means to keep the necessities of life flowing..."

"It is difficult to read from you exactly what is what and who is who, so you should definitely avoid distorting the facts about what is happening..."

"just be aware that in your efforts to be well-loved and do well, you do not become the unwitting tool of someone who holds you to ransom for that..."

"... social acceptance is not necessarily the goal in itself, just a framework that will support your creative ventures..."

"..any delusions and untruths that you cannot sniff out and clear up could affect your otherwise pristine social standing..."

"Your eagerness to stay informed and, as much as possible, inform others about a variety of subjects could see you becoming confused and easily distracted..."

"...you may have developed a sensitivity to ‘truths’ that don’t align with how you want to see the world..."

"Your intuitive powers will sense that you are often of greater value than others will confess to you..."

"Fool yourself, and you become instantly fooled by the whole universe..."

"Personal relations will be a big theme in the coming weeks and months, and you must be fit to handle yourself for everything the social world is going to throw at you...."

"Neptune’s squares to Mercury, ruler of this lunation, means that you may feel confused, discouraged or undermined about your inherent sense of security, particularly economically..."

"...this New Moon can pose situations which send you into an identity crisis..."

"External circumstances might seem to make you feel like either you’re not yet ready to deal with others, or the opportunity to meet them in the here and now has already passed..."

"In your insatiable desires, a sense of possessive greed and laziness to make things of value (or art) may develop. This could run you into trouble if you let it."

"You may be overly content with being your own person in one instance, then become overly possessive of others in another, mostly for fear of being left alone..."

"What emerges during the events of this period is that the slightest hint of rejection and you can spiral into bouts of feeling sorry for yourself..."

"...this period could see you scrambling in all directions at the same time, in futile attempt to find some sense of respite and spiritual fulfilment..."

"Whilst you may want social acceptance, you may not like having to go out there and get it..."

"...your ability to stay out of the thick of things may manifest into a desire to seclude yourself into a monastic lifestyle, hide out upon a mountain, go walking barefoot through the woods..."

"Perhaps you have developed a sensitivity, or formed an aversion to dealing with the hurt of past experiences, pushing it further away, or developing negative views towards certain ‘others’..."

"It may, at times, seem like there is little or no boundary between the feelings you put out there and the feelings that reverberate from those around you..."

"What transpires as you try to consciously manage your feelings, especially the more extreme ones like hatred or desire, is that you become unconsciously convinced that the world is a toxic mess..."

"It’s possible that you are just projecting your very powerful feelings onto others, mainly because you can’t handle any of their rejection..."

"You’re projecting, and circumstances force you to see your most repressed self (your shadow) being dramatised in others..."

"During this time you might be delighted to discover that you are quite stimulated by a decent contender, someone who can look you in the eyes, call you out at your game, see you rising fearlessly to the occasion..."

"Although the egocentricity and feelings of self-love can run high, under the surface you conceal a certain ambivalence about yourself..."

"...is there a possibility that you are in an imbalanced relationship where you are trying to pacify your self-doubts and insecurities through personal pursuits, even addictive behaviours?"

"If you’re finding it hard right to feel as though you’re functioning as a separate entity, then your current career situation would pose some clues as to why..."

"When you meet your intellectual match, either “what you believe” applies or the source of all your “truths” gets shot down. So you better get your facts straight..."

"...your sense of what you’re worth may be dependent on someone else, and how well you have this under balance indicates how much overall control you have in your world."

"Either you are getting your needs met, or what you might discover is that you’re essentially carrying around dead weight which, rather than satisfying you, is dragging you down and not allowing you to move as freely as you might wish..."

"Sometimes we desire to be accepted and validated about our own worth so much that we don’t even realise how complicit we become in the demeaning or depreciating of our time and energy to others..."

"...you cannot afford to rely on others to support you and rally around your cause now. They have their own problems to work out..."

"Your public identity, or what’s to remain of it, may call that you seize control of all available opportunities to impose drastic changes..."

"Perhaps they’ve mistaken a mere notion for a promise, or you have idealistically stretched your resources far more than you perhaps can afford, and are now finding yourself in a tense, controlling situation..."

"...the sensitivity to unacceptable social conditions may force you to take some drastic measures to ensure the elimination of any conditions which seem toxic or undesirable..."

"...any inner pressure to change your outer world to suit you is likely to produce unprecedented levels of instability and unpredictability upon your established life patterns.."

"You must know that it is necessary now to do without some of life’s little pleasures, albeit temporarily, in order to guarantee the success of what you are struggling to achieve..."

"...Nobody knows how much you suffered, and continue to suffer, because you find it hard to break out from your own web of shyness and reserve..."

"...Even if you have long moved away from your place of origin, or have become expatriated from your childhood roots, you may now get the sudden urge to return and to revisit old ties..."

"...strong winds of change are blowing your way that could update the daily practices in profound new ways which upset the old routine, regardless of how well you’ve been running the shop..."
