From the 18th through the 24th amazing things can be accomplished in a flash, if we are self-reliant and honest. Measuring achievement by material results is necessary, but only half the picture. We need to see the highway in front and plot a course regardless of how seemingly unlikely our vision will come to pass. Personal relationships may be tough going as we need to bypass the logjam of stubbornness.
18th – Monday – Sun Parallel Mercury, Mercury Semi-sextile Venus – We tend to say exactly what we mean, for better or worse. It is all in the interpretation. Our words may have an impact we don’t intend. Getting our ideas across to others may mean waiting a while.
19th – Tuesday – Taking care of details requires more attention than usual. Slow steady progress is more meaningful than attempting to jump forward in haste. Moments of confusion can be punctuated with flashes of inspiration.
20th – Wednesday – Mars Trine Pluto, Mercury Sextile Saturn – Aspirations are realized through concerted effort and sustained reasoning. Hard facts can be gathered through disciplined and systematic thinking.
21st – Thursday – Venus Square Mars, Venus Sextile Jupiter, Sun Semi-sextile Uranus, Mars Quincunx Jupiter – We energize our key projects. The spirit of compromise is present, but we still may be working alone. With a little planning, we can help others and still accomplish our own tasks. Attraction to unusual ideas and procedures prove promising.
22nd – Friday – A straight line is not always the shortest distance between two points. Many things we work on now will take extra oomph and even changes in approach. Staying sensitive to the needs, even whims, of others can be the key to finding help in unexpected places. A lighthearted positive attitude unleashes a hidden treasure.
23rd – Saturday – Embracing things that refine our inner life brings joy. Some problems can’t be solved by more thinking. Unpacking the emotional intensity around current circumstances gives a new insight. Eliminating unnecessary and unhelpful items in our lives reveals something important about our ultimate values.
24th – Sunday – Mercury Conjunct Neptune – Confusion can follow us if we are not aware and attuned to the larger crises plaguing our culture. Trying to solve personal concerns in isolation from the collective will leads us to a series of cul-de-sacs. Dreaming of a better world, and imagining a time of personal contentment, helps us get closer to this reality.
