May 28 to June 4, 2009
As the Moon waxes toward full – growing larger each evening – tap in to your inner goddess, feel Mother Nature’s rhythm and intuit your path. Connecting with natural cycles and “going with the flow” is not just an airy-fairy, New Age idea or adage – it’s a genuine, time-honored process of self-discipline and awareness practiced by sages, gurus and avatars for millennia.
The Gemini lunar and solar cycles encourage curiosity, communication and thought. It is the celestial zodiac’s first air sign and therefore deals with primal thinking and skills of cognition – using the mind to perceive, identify, reason, deduce, categorize and prioritize. This sounds simple and basic, and it is. But, in today’s world, we have a tendency to be over-amped when it comes to mental and sensory stimuli and activity, therefore reducing the quality of transmission and turning mega-bytes of data into static. Our brains can feel like over-saturated sponges with no more room for water.
But, this week, it’s time to squeeze the sponge and prepare for absorption – a lot of New Age information is traveling on the airwaves and filtering through the cosmos. Emanating from the Galactic Source and floating in the ethers, electromagnetic impulses are riding invisible waves and rocking the boats of individual and collective consciousness.
Mercury – Gemini’s ruling planet – resumes forward motion on May 30th at 7:22 pm MDT @ 23º Taurus, and in so doing, puts us back on track regarding mental clarity and capacity. Meanwhile, several other planets change direction and a type of jumbling effect results. We may feel more clear about what we think and what we want, but everything else seems to be in flux or question.
A rather high-intensity global shape-shifting is taking place and we are all individually important integral parts of the shift. What you think, what you say and what you do now resonates throughout not only your neighborhood, but also the entire Universe, actually exerting evolutionary force upon the outcome. The best and most effective strategies to use in these times include healthy daily routines, a great degree of humility and surrender to powers greater than ourselves – let’s face it, we can’t control the weather, the economy or other people! – positive thoughts, actions and attitudes, gratitude and respect for ourselves and others, as well as a great degree of courage and faith in what is good. Help your neighbor but don’t neglect take care of yourself.
And just like the sages and avatars of the ages, practice “going with the flow!”
Aries (Mar. 21-Apr.19)
The stars line up for those who open to the cosmic flow and move in new directions.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

Surround yourself with people of good intention and fly high.

Compassion with authority figures, parents or people in high places may be necessary this week as you discover the truth about something which has been brewing for quite some time.

Capricorn (Dec. 21-Jan. 19)
Money and finance, along with romance and creativity, head your list of priorities this week. Straighten and balance accounts as you discern where and how to increase income.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Congratulations on being chosen as an example of what and whatnot to be. Others see you as one who has experienced the highs and lows, ups and downs, ins and outs of life. You know today that what often looks good at first can end up bad and vice-versa. Help others to see the many polarities and paradoxes of life. Lead by example and smile on the way.
Pisces (Feb. 19-Mar. 20)
Angelic guidance and invisible forces continue to advise and direct your path. Remain open to the signs and omens along the way. When you meet someone who has something unique or unusual to say, listen. Take a different route home. Change your patterns and observe what happens. It’s time to expand and explore the world of spirit. Enjoy the journey!
