Tip of the Week:
The Full Moon on January 29 is the first after the eclipse a couple of weeks ago. This means that some of the first sprouts from that event will be visible. That eclipse indicated there would be measurable changes in the ranks of power due to challenging events. The eclipse path runs from Central through Western Africa, South India and straight through the center of China. These locations would especially feel the impact. However, any persons, cities or countries with planets at or near 25 Capricorn or any of the other Cardinal Signs especially – Aries, Cancer and Libra – will experience pressures to change. These changes are destined to occur and could prove quite welcome actually. Key events will cause significant leaders to retire or leave posts and new people will assume those positions. In the bigger picture, anyone with planets in the early degrees of the Cardinal Signs will experience big changes as well this year. 2010 generally will be very pivotal on a mass scale. We can expect many major events and turning points that will gain global attention. The silver lining is that these will prove to activate a greater humanitarian and spiritual consciousness. The global humanitarian aid that has gone to the rescue of Haiti is a good example. The next 2-3 years stand to be extra dramatic and exciting as well. Many are looking to the 12/21/2012 date for this. The lead-up years and the few that follow it are a more accurate way of measuring the revolutionary momentum’s of this wave of evolution. That these will be linked to natural disasters and economic, political and social upheavals is probable. This will be the real birthing time of the new era that is ready to be born.

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
Desires to stimulate a more dynamic and yet meaningful network of friends continues. Popularity is one thing, but genuine connections engage the heart. With increasing levels of responsibility coming your way, you may feel the need to manage your time better than ever. A review of your priorities so that they come into balance with your growing duties and responsibilities may be in order.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)
You may suddenly find yourself in the limelight somehow. Whether you want to be there or not is another question. This may be your big chance to gain some desired recognition. Joining groups and making new friends is part of the plot. Yet, you seek alliances that will meet your deeper needs. A growing commitment to your career and sense of purpose or even mission is guiding your focus.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)
Opportunities in your public and/or professional life are in the rise. This trend will continue for the next couple of months especially. Change is the law and it is rolling in big waves these days. Cooperating with these currents is wise. If you feel the impulse to control, use it to control, your resistance to following where your heart felt intuition is guiding.

Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)
The time has come to take new initiatives in the bigger picture of your life. Financial ambitions and responsibilities are playing a bigger role than usual. You would like to take some risks yet may feel scattered and confused about what constitutes your best options. Meanwhile, changes are brewing in your public and professional life. You may be more willing to listen and heed advice now.

Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)
Increasing your network implies increased diplomatic relations. In your personal life you want to reach out; be more sincere to offset lingering feelings of insecurity. Exposing your vulnerability and sharing your feelings and fears may work for you. Professionally, it is time to reassert your worth. This implies inner and outer changes. Aim for a constructively critical approach with a graceful delivery.

Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)
Nurturing a new awareness and healthier habit patterns is on your mind. You can expect your public life to increase and you will want to be the best you can be. You are in a foundation building time in your life. In addition to a patient and visionary approach, knowing what to release and where to focus will prove important. Honour your resourcefulness and go for slow but sure progress.

Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Introducing more fun, play, creativity and perhaps romance into your life is in the spotlight. The irony may be that you are very serious about achieving your goal. People and or circumstances are working to make you change your mind and focus or habitual associations. In other words, we get used to our comfort zones but these are not always good for us. Be open to guidance, advice and/or coaching.

Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
Nurturing your awareness towards defining and refining your individuality is on your mind. You are ready to create a new state of balance; perhaps to even the score. Changing your own mind and focus and attitude and avoiding the pitfall of trying to change the same in others is the key. You need to get out of your own way somehow. Aim to take some creative risks.

Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Many new realizations are pouring in now. These are coinciding with new levels of confidence. You are ready and/or it is time try some new strategies. Freedom is a big word for you and it may be especially big now. The temptation to control people and situations may be strong but you can re-direct this to self-control. Outline intentions and define your goals.

Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
A process of re-evaluation and re-prioritization is now underway. This may be especially so regarding your friends and social circles and habits. You are ready to deepen relations on certain fronts and move on from others. An inner preparation to push to achieve new levels of personal power is underway. This process stands to continue well into next year.

Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)
You are in the mood to take some new initiatives. You are ready to focus to increase your income. Be prepared to take a disciplined approach. Surrender to the realities of the task ahead. You may want to have new experiences or try new angles. Increasing your level of education is a distinct possibility. Be willing to work behind the scenes and do some soul searching while you are there as well.

Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)
Many changes are brewing for you. Intuitions about what you ‘should’ do are coming to the surface. These include taking risks and diversifying your focus and offering. Based on seeing a bigger picture of your future and direction, you want to develop a sharper aim to increase your income and/or your sense of personal power in general.
