MonthNovember 2010
I believe you’re going to like November as it has a karmic, full-circle feel to it, with the completion of a situation that has been omnipotent in your life. You’re certainly feeling all emotional this month so it may have been a recent break that indicates the “end of a cycle” or you’re getting closure on another. You’re dwelling a lot on your feelings and all your relationships, especially with your children if you have them. Nearly all Cancer’s have children, if not theirs then lots of Godchildren, pupils etc. They are family folk after all. You are coming into “your season” when it’s all about family and good times but unfortunately for many divorced Cancers (there are quite a few of you being a sign that has a propensity for this!) discussions will be about your place or mine, child support and even adult children returning to the nest! Single Cancers will be focusing on their love relationships and many will be having the most amazing horizontal (or whatever) encounters. Embrace all that passion you’re feeling and direct it towards some sublime one-one-one encounters – sexual, social and in business. For those Cancers that have been enduring legal, Estate or any “joint funds” issues including financial problems at work (I’ve been writing about this since Feb!) this is now coming to an end, either this month around the full moon (21st) or early December. You’ve been trying to get your point across with little success, as others couldn’t really see the legitimacy of your gripes and the boundaries of what’s yours and what’s mine may have been blurred or even crossed. Your partner’s finances could have gone south or dried up and this has impacted on you and for some unlucky Cancers there has even been the distinct possibility of fraud, treachery or betrayal. This is now a perfect time to spring clean psychic garbage and rid yourself of the unpleasant after taste of everything that has “gone down”; but not before digging deep and exposing a few secrets! You will move forward and let it all go (a bit like Aries shedding their skin any day now) only yours has been a long transformation that is ongoing. You’ve learnt a lot from the lessons (helpful and horrible) that the Cosmos has ditched out to you over the past few years, and this really will hold you in great stead for the future. ^ TOP October 2010
If you were to do a really honest self appraisal what would be the one thing that has (or had) the potential to hold you back or checked your career and emotional progress over the years? No it’s not performance. It’s your relating and communication skills and the Cosmos wants to drive this lesson home to you over the next couple of years. In the process you will find ALL your relationships become more stable and secure. You will be able to reveal your TRUE feelings to people, to be able to open up to loved ones in an honest and frank manner. What you see is really what you get kinda stuff. You won’t be shouting and screaming as much, and the arrogance quotient will be curtailed. That’s not saying that there won’t be MANY occasions when you want to absolutely let rip - but there always will be – but this transit is to show you that you can get “more bees with honey”. October is the month when you’ll pull back, reflect, review, take stock and then…..come to this conclusion. You saw the beginnings of an improvement to your finances last month and this will continue and I can promise you that you’re well and truly over that particularly trying and restrictive financial hump. So from now onwards switch your focus from finances to family (or loved ones) – in fact all your interpersonal relationships – and work on improving and building an appreciative audience. ^ TOP September 2010
Is there a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow? You betcha! No matter what form it takes it is your reward for staying the distance and enduring the difficulties and struggles of the past year. That said the upshot is that you feel stronger and somehow more capable for simply surviving the struggle and emerging victorious. The funny thing about taking a stand, especially when it relates to your closest relationships is that they do take you more seriously and although it’s an unpleasant process in the short term (last 3 years?) the long term benefits are forever.
Whether or not it is connected to the above but this month it’s as if you had the wheels greased in your communication machine. You can easily get your message across, you are no longer misunderstood in fact you are quite succinct and people are really and genuinely listening to you now.
Unfortunately there will be some delays and frustrations (of course!) before whatever it is you are sweating on – money? – starts rolling in and that will make you feel a whole lot better about life in general.
This month the Cosmos urges you to connect with your family, most specifically siblings. If there are any emotional chasms you must try and leap the void before the year is out but especially in the second half of this month. You are at an optimum time for opening yourself up to new ways of viewing a situation now and are more receptive to any approaches with your new attitude. It will be one of the hardest things you’ve ever done but also one of your greatest achievements and you can move beyond the fork in the road.
Alternatively you may get a sudden out of the blue offer to have a grand adventure, completely different to your usual routine which will turn your world upside down (in a great way!).
^ TOP August 2010
Well there are good months and bad months and in between months such is the cycle of life. Unfortunately this is a bad month. It has everything to do with cosmic activity so there is not a lot you can actually do with it, just go into survival mode which you are becoming very adept at! The funny thing is that you do your best work when your back is to the wall and therefore August will turn out to be a pretty successful month after all! Home is in a state of flux. That might be where you live or with your extended family (parents, siblings etc) or even ex’s and shared children. There are struggles and power plays going on, either directly or from afar and these are going to cause aggravation and at times a sense of despair. Something that transpires during the first two weeks will take the wind out of your sails and really surprise you (not in a good way) but you will manage to extricate yourself from the situation without too much collateral damage. You will be dealt a rather unpleasant blow that will take you a long time to forget, if ever. I wish I could say this was a one-off thing, but most likely is the precursor in a long running drama with “episodes” and installments for many years to come. (This could be about shared offspring for example) but whatever it is, the situation is a highly emotional one and not one that you will find to your amusement. Thankfully behind the scenes something is brewing that you cannot see yet but perhaps you can sense, a fabulous job, more money, (raise, inheritance, payment) that is being “constructed” and incubated now and will make it’s way to you in due course. You will be focused on how to bring more of the lucre in and August will be dominated I feel with thoughts of futures, money and how to get more. You just need to get through this month with minimal fallout. ^ TOP July 2010
If you were in Roman times I’d say you were in an orgy at Caligula’s place however it’s 2010 so I’ll venture that you are in a group dynamic (anything more than two..) which is causing you some degree of pressure and nervous tension. There will be the beginnings of communication between the various players (awkward though it may be) but it will be the start of a dynamic that will end in resolution - even if right now there appears no end in sight.
You are centre stage this month, you are the main protagonist in this dynamic but even so others also vie for a place in the sun. Just remember that what you say will be the lead and proceed accordingly but decisions do need to be made now. There are some emotional issues mixed up with the practical ones so that muddies the water a bit, especially if you are carrying around all the baggage of past wounds that more than likely were inflicted by the very people you are dealing with!
Just know that the force is with you (the cosmos) and this is a superb transit and you will be leading the way. Doors will open and any set backs are only so that you can progress down a more favourable path and any (and all) momentous financial or emotional decisions that you make now will pay off.
From midmonth when this transit kicks in the uphill struggle will change to a downhill race to the finish with the pot of gold at the bottom of the rainbow…but there will be times during that first few weeks when you will be feeling quite frazzled and stressed. (Tip: the reverse of stressed is desserts!)
To make the first few weeks more bearable distract yourself as much as possible – golf anyone? – and by the time August comes around you will be reveling for all the right reasons.
This month Saturn will enter your 4th house which can mean your life will go in an entirely new direction, usually upward! According to Grant Lewi - who was the father of modern astrology in the US (and influenced a lot of the western world) - this is the most auspicious time to begin a climb in life that will culminate in about 14 years. Wow. It also rules a parent but I will address Saturn’s influence over the next 2 years in another postings relating specifically to that topic.
^ TOP June 2010
You have become such a cynical beast! Actually it suits you and you quite like it. It’s almost become your tool of empowerment. And talk about empowerment – you are “the man” (or woman) right now!
Not so long back – gee how the years fly - you were playing second fiddle to everyone, browbeaten and demoralized then voila “ Houston we have take off”.
You had a plan and you implemented it and now everyone is taking notice of you. Now for some Cancer’s that may be not related to the meteoric escalation in their career but rather from other actions entirely and if they are not applauding (well you can’t exactly blame them can you?) it doesn’t mean that they are not highly focused (or is that obsessed?) with what you are doing and your next steps.
To say you are feeling a tad defiant is an understatement. You will hear of a breakthrough and maybe breathtaking news during the month, it won’t be entirely unexpected but it’s the form that the news takes that is yet to be unveiled. Will it be to your liking or not?
Certainly it will be a reasonably dramatic month on some levels – with remarkable events and yes the odd drama or two. Cancer’s love their family and domestic world but a lot of Cancers have drawn a line in the sand or are in the process of withdrawing from one or the other (or both), mainly because they were left with little option. Still there will always be a part of you that remains connected whether you wish to acknowledge this or not.
Those Cancers who still remain deeply entrenched in family ties are beginning to weigh up if indeed your family responsibilities and their expectations of you could in fact be blocking you from following your dreams or from moving forward with your life.
You are experiencing an itch to continuing exploring your career path (or even find a new one) and to ultimately become more self sufficient in your working life. This is your goal now – in fact a yearning to make a difference in the world through your work is taking precedence and some of you are even contemplating charity work or volunteering in third world countries –how altruistic!
You can look forward to (beginning this month) a brief three month passage of luck and success and those who count will be on your side and intervene on your behalf.
It’s written in the stars - your public image will be under the spotlight.
^ TOP May 2010
You are a tenacious sign. Once you’ve decided on a course of action, that’s it. It may take you a hell of a long time to get there, but once you’re “in the zone” you’ll keep on advancing – sideways or however else you manage it – until you’ve seized that prize in your hot little pincers.
Along the way you’ve fretted and worried about outcomes which no-one (including me) can absolutely say what will eventuate. But…I can give you a pretty good indication. You are feeling optimistic and don’t dare to hope that this feeling has any foundation but…it does. You are feeling confident and positive with good reason and I suspect that you will hear good news in the not too distant future.
Certainly if sheer tenacity and staying power has any bearing then by pure willpower you will be victorious.
Your determination to succeed is actually cranking up and you have your eye on the prize and will not rest until you have it. A long term issue (monetary I suspect) that has been in your life for seemingly eons is about to come to fruition and there will be an adjustment of a ledger in your favour.
I don’t believe that this will happen this month as this is merely a continuation of a trend that has impacted on you for a long period. Some likely scenarios, you win financially but you compromise emotionally or vice versa but overall you will be pleased with the outcomes, if not immediately certainly in retrospect when you have a chance to evaluate everything.
Certainly it will serve to fire your ambitions and you are thinking a lot about your career and new directions to take. Money/career is all on the up and up, sadly relationships that have been rocky for long time will end during this period (if they have not already done so) but the really good news (this month) is that socially you are ON FIRE from mid month onwards.
Fun (something you’ve all but forgotten about) is on its way big time.
^ TOP April 2010
For the past year in particular (but in reality for a lot longer than that) you have been frustrated, blocked and hounded by what has transpired since mid 2009.
There are considerable relationship issues that remain needing to be dealt with but in truth you are not really sure how. The situation has become bigger than it needed to and you feel it’s beyond resolution - plus it represents hurt and sorrow.
Every avenue you’ve explored previously looked decidedly unpalatable and it’s either an issue with your Mother (nearly ALL Cancers have issues with Mom) or else it’s with your siblings. It represents a gaping and festering wound so you’d far prefer to do nothing.
It may also be that the life you are forging for yourself now doesn’t really have room for your previous family entanglements or you just want something different now.
So is there any good news?
Well trés surprisingly as you are going about your business and getting over one too many Easter eggs you will receive some amazing career news that will change everything. Either that or you will have an epiphany and identify a new career path or business that you are going to embark on next.
Whichever way it pans out, you are going places and will be making enormous strides in your career which is about to take off in a really big way. In fact you will look back on 2010 at some point in the future and say to yourself “well, that was when it all started”.
^ TOP March 2010
The central theme for many months has been one of transition and this process of change continues. Planning for the future takes your mind off the deadlock of your current life which everyone seems hell bent steering on our behalf.
Foreign contacts and overseas influences continue to materialize as an integral aspect of your future plans and a certain someone from a distant shore will guide you in the right direction.
What you will be doing over the next decade of your life is likely to be decided in this month and the new moon mid month will provide the breakthrough and point the way to a groundbreaking new direction. Even though the prospect of such monumental change is daunting you have accepted the fact that your current existence is oppressive.
You are also considering a trip, either an exploratory one or just to give yourself a break from the fray and whilst you continue to fret about finances, these will start to improve again from mid month
Spiritually you have been evolving for a number of years and 2010 is actually the culmination of this slow awakening. This spiritual rebirth has armed you with sufficient chutzpah to move forward with conviction and through the gateway to greater freedom and happiness.
In the interim you need to drink deep from the well of patience and endurance as you deal with differences of opinions and the odd mean-spirited individual.
Don’t fall into the trap of lying awake at night fretting over complicated issues as March holds the promise of alleviating most of your current anxieties and fears.
^ TOP Feburary 2010
This months forecast is a closer look at Pluto in Capricorn. Pluto in 2010 will be transiting your 7th house of marriage and significant others and will transform your attitudes about marriage, and how you use your personal power in relationships. If you're in a union, Pluto will transform how you relate to each other and either deepen your tie - or help you cut the connection if you're wrong for each other. Not to worry, if you don’t end up with a really great relationship you just might be rewarded with a hugely successful business. You will be irresistibly attracted to powerful, influential people who will have a transforming effect on your life. Power in others fascinates you, reflecting the way you would like to be yourself. Try to avoid projecting your most negative emotions onto your partner, blaming them for emotions you would rather not face within yourself. There will probably be many battles over who has control in your relationships. Through the fear of being dominated, you attempt to gain the upper hand first. In close relationships events will force you to redefine that relationship and tensions that may have been building up over time will erupt during this transit. Remember that these tensions reflect your inner struggles.
