Gemini Full Moon: Nov 27 – Dec 12, 2023

Dear Friends,

Happy Thanksgiving and Sagittarius season!

On November 27, at 4:17 AM ET, the Full Moon aligned in Gemini bringing us to an important cross-road in our life’s journey.

With the Full Moon in Gemini – we may be feeling divided between the head and heart. But notably — all planets currently answer to Venus in Libra, suggesting the heart holds the answer and key. Listen. Whatever the question, love is the answer.

The scenery is rapidly changing, drawing us out of our comfort zone to explore new territory. Over the coming weeks, there are profound truths, insights, revelations, and conversations coming through. Life presents us with choices, but avoid going to extremes. Duality is an illusion. Separation exists in the mind. Clarify a vision, and choose the middle path. Make time for self-reflection, silence, meditation, and be honest with yourself above all. Then it will be easier to make wise, conscious choices, and have heartfelt conversations moving forward.

Gemini is the sign of duality, the mind, ideas, beliefs, all forms of communication, and transportation. The Full Moon is highlighting these themes, especially in the area of your life ruled by Gemini. We’re in the waning cycle of the Moon — over the next two weeks, keep an open mind. Consciously release beliefs, ideas, assumptions, what you think you know, or how you think things should be. Then you can discover and be revealed a deeper truth, allowing for informed decisions.

This Gemini Full Moon forms a T-square with Mars and Saturn, suggesting a need for discernment. There’s a need for awareness of our limits, but also of our freedom to make choices that work for us. The house in your chart ruled by Virgo, offers the outlet and is where you can balance this pressure. Something might seem like a tall order, but there’s a sweeter simpler way. Be willing to ask for help if you need it. Life is upgrading and hopefully, we’re growing in wisdom, compassion, maturity, and sensitivity. Realign with your inner compass, truth, and wisdom, then you can navigate with awareness.

With the Full Moon in Gemini —we’re learning to communicate our needs and feelings, honestly. Whether in business or personal relationships — everything is negotiable. There is a way forward that works for all. Make time for self-reflection, be brutally honest with yourself, and seek perspective. Then it will be easier to find common ground with others — unless everyone wins, everyone loses.

Mercury planet of communication and the ruler of Gemini, is now in the shadow phase. It stations retrograde on December 13, and stations direct on till January 4. At the lunation, Mercury (ruler of Gemini) made the first (of three) squares to Neptune at this lunation. Mercury will make two more squares to Neptune on December 27 and January 8.

At its depth, this is a process of tuning into our soul’s calling, and learning to listen to our inner voice. On the surface — the conversations, and situations we’re dealing with now are part of a larger story unfolding until January 2024. There are important insights, information, conversations, and revelations coming through. Be patient with the process of discovery and avoid thinking you know it all.

This situation has many moving parts. With Mercury in Sagittarius —stay focused on the target, and big picture, and be true to your values. Then you can learn what you need to know discover a deeper, greater truth, and make wise choices moving ahead.

Interestingly, Venus was at 21+ Libra at this lunation and triggered the October 14, Libra Solar Eclipse degree. What was seeded then is now slowly blossoming. Venus meets the South Node on November 29, before she enters Scorpio on December 4. This suggests a deep release of past (outgrown) patterns surrounding relationships, money, and our values; so we can make conscious creative choices moving ahead.

Our relationships, finances, contracts, creativity, and all matters of the heart are in focus. Love reigns supreme. In relationships, there is a need for patience, kindness, honesty, temperance, and freedom. If we can choose and communicate from the heart we can strike the right balance. Freedom is key to strengthening bonds that go the distance and the test of time.

Once Venus enters Scorpio on December 4, the energy shifts. Then Venus is ruled by Mars, while Mars is in Jupiter’s sign, and Jupiter is in Venus’s sign. That feels like going around in circles with something. If it feels like you’re caught in some endless (unpleasant) cycle —it will require a conscious redirecting of thoughts, and making conscious choices. If you’re enjoying this energy, by all means, go sink into it. No two moments are alike, because the planets are always moving. There are endless pleasures, treasures, and adventures to be discovered — showing us a brighter side to life.

Relationships are a choice. This is echoed by both Venus and the full Moon in Gemini. With the Sun (and Mars) in Sagittarius, Connections rooted in freedom and honesty, rather than any sense of obligation have the potential to go the distance. Beware of being judgmental — life isn’t black and white, and neither are people. You are creating your reality with your mind’s eye. Choose and create awareness.

We’re in Sagittarius season, moving to the Sagittarius New Moon in two weeks on December 12, drawing us on a new journey of discovery. Jupiter the ruler of Sagittarius is currently in Venus’ sign. Jupiter will station direct on December 31, at Taurus 5+ triggering the degree of the Taurus Eclipse on October 28, bringing a vision to life.

Sagittarius is a visionary sign. Now more than ever, you are creating your reality with your mind’s eye with your thoughts, words, and choices. As you move forward from this Full Moon — clarify a vision and keep your eyes on the prize. However the road winds, Sagittarius season reminds us the real journey is the inner one. My Guru says, the eyes that see the good in others [and the world], and eyes that see bad [find fault] are bad eyes.

Beauty and the beast lie in the eye of the beholder. What are you envisioning? Where are you going? What are you leaving behind? What are you taking with you? Who is going with you? Be true to yourself above all.

VENUS RX IN LEO JULY 22 – SEPT 3, 2023

VENUS RX IN LEO – CONSULTATION 60 MIN – $222

Dear Friends,

Last night on July 22, Venus stationed retrograde in Leo at 9:32 PM ET followed immediately by the Sun’s ingress into Leo at 9:50 PM ET. We’re entering a dramatic, bold, new season, blasting open our hearts and minds.

Where we’ve recently felt powerless, we’re regaining confidence and reconnecting with our creative power. This feels like the lights being turned in a situation where things have felt mysterious or murky. Life is inviting us to peel back the mask and dare to acknowledge our heart’s most burning desires. Then we can seize the moment and opportunities as they arise.

Venus first entered the shadow phase on June 19, look back at what was surfacing around then. It will give you a clue into a longer story playing out with this transit. Venus is now retracing her steps,  drawing us into a process of re-evaluation of the recent past. Venus will station direct on September 3, (at the degree she occupied was on June 19,) and moves out of shadow on October 7 (past the degree she is currently at.) So be patient with the process and don’t be too quick to judge — there’s more coming to light.

Notably – Venus retrogrades at approximately the same degree every 8 years. So it would also help to look back to your life in 2015, 2007, 1999, 1991, and so on… counting back every 8 years. This will give you an idea of the themes likely to emerge now and a larger story in your life’s journey. You are not who you once were. With awareness, we can do things differently, and create consciously, in alignment with our authentic selves as we are today.

Any Venus’ retrograde will bring its dramatic moments and in Leo, you can expect things to be dialed up a notch. This is not for the faint-hearted and things could get steamy. We’re in a process of deep re-evaluation of all Venusian matters of love, beauty, relationships, money, our values, and all matters of the heart. Pay attention to where you have Leo in your chart — that’s where this energy is playing out highlighting matters of that house.

Leo is a fixed fire sign, ruled by the Sun — the source of light and life-giving energy. It rules the heart, the true Self, the eternal present, youth, love, romance, fun, creativity, passion, sexuality, authenticity, courage, confidence, spontaneity, and our ability to take risks. On the flip side, Leo also points to the ego, pride, defenses, and fears of rejection which ultimately cast a shadow on all that is bright and beautiful. These themes are in focus.

In the chart for Venus’ retrograde, the Moon is separating from an opposition Neptune. Also, the Sun is at the end of Cancer (ruled by the Moon) just past an opposition to Pluto. There’s a sense of moving beyond the illusion, or veil. We’re seeing what was previously missed — be it true colors or the true value of something or someone — to find what’s precious and golden in it. If something seems too good to be true it likely is. And something/someone you’ve overlooked might deserve a closer inspection to discover the treasures it holds at its depths.


VENUS RX IN LEO – CONSULTATION 60 MIN – $222


Above all, with this Venus Rx in Leo, we’re learning all that is gold doesn’t glitter, and all that glitters isn’t gold. This is very glamorous energy but moves beyond surface appearances. External beauty fades, and money can’t buy love or happiness. Especially in the age of false information and curated social media profiles, remember you’re only seeing what someone wants you to see. Avoid comparisons. It could be easy to let our imagination run wild – for better or worse. But avoid projection — seek clarity and depth. True beauty radiates from within, and a heart of gold is more precious than all the riches in the world.

Venus in Leo is a queen, a royal. She needn’t chase, beg, or want anything. But with this retrograde closely conjunct fixed star Regulus, any hubris will be met with a swift fall from grace. However, life is unfolding  — be humble. Drop the mask, ego, pride, and defenses. Don’t be afraid to admit if you’ve been mistaken. Peer into the heart and soul of a situation. More importantly, peer into your own heart and soul. Then we can engage in, create, and attract experiences consciously.

Also in the chart, Mars is separating from opposition to Saturn, and the Sun at the end of Cancer is separating from its opposition to Pluto. We’re moving past a limitation or an obstacle, leaving behind a heavier past, attachments we’ve outgrown, generational conditioning, and patterns of co-dependency. There may have been sobering realities to face. If you’re dealing with loss, grief, disappointment, sadness, or heartbreak, do so consciously as you allow space for healing. This too shall pass. That said, the past is past. Where we’ve recently reached a limit with something, we may be having a change of heart. A door is opening to reveal new depths of emotions and desire, inviting us to explore them, if we dare.

Relationships are in focus and heating up. Likely exes and past lovers are resurfacing. This is an ideal time to gain closure on the past. But if you’re trying to rekindle an old romance, or meet someone new during a retrograde, I would advise against it, or to wait till Venus is direct before making any major commitment. Stay in the present, without projecting too far into the future. The same is true if you are starting a new creative project, considering a major financial investment with no prior connection, an irreversible beauty treatment, or a dramatic haircut. Every experience is valuable and sometimes the heart wants what it wants. But be advised — once Venus stations direct things will change shape and form, and you’ll likely feel differently then. So weigh out your risks, and be conscious of what you commit, or give in to in the heat of the moment.

In existing connections, friendships, and partnerships, bonds can deepen. Where things have gotten heated, or egos have flared — there can be reconciliation, re-kindling of love, passion, and fun. It will call for absolute authenticity, courage, compassion, boldness, and being vulnerable. Learn from the past, but stay in the present and avoid picking at scabs. Also, rather than have expectations of another —acknowledge how you feel and remain detached. Something might feel like a risk — but it would be a greater risk to pass up a chance to be happy.

VENUS RX IN LEO – CONSULTATION 60 MIN – $222

At best, Venus’ rx in Leo, is an invitation to reconnect with and re-discover the source of our joy, fun, happiness, creativity, confidence, and love within our hearts. Confidence is sexy and attractive. And all the love we seek is right here for us, in the present, in our hearts and being. Venus and Leo both speak of love; the kind of warm love that shines constantly like the Sun and lights up the world. Then have faith that what’s (or who’s) right for you will naturally gravitate to you.

At the very least, this retrograde is a chance to make peace with the past and reconnect with that eternal source of love, bliss, and joy within. So we can live and love more authentically, passionately, fearlessly, and deeply in the present.

I have a lot more to say — but I have to go for now. I’ll update this post on the website, with important dates of Venus’ aspects offering a timeline for this retrograde. So please check back in. Time permitting, I will also be back with a video and Horoscopes for the 12 signs soon.

For a more personal in-depth reading — you can book an Astrology Consultation or a special Venus Retrograde Consultation to make the most of your opportunities and draw in what you desire. Or you can sign up for the Inner Journey program for an Immersive Natal chart study – I have ONE slot left for July. I would love to work with you.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend! With love,

CANCER NEW MOON, July 17 – August 1, 2023

Welcome to the Cancer New Moon, dear Friends,

Cancer is a cardinal, water sign, ruled by the Moon. It “initiates” the Summer in the North and Winter in the South, and similarly, it initiates a new season in our lives. We’re in the womb of a powerful, fertile new cycle. This is a fresh start, reset, renewal, and re-birth in the area of your life/chart ruled by Cancer.

If you’re a Cancerian — Happy Birthday! This is your new year and it seems you’re ready to create some waves.

This Cancer New Moon aligned at 2:31 PM ET on July 17 at 24+ degrees, in a trine to Neptune and opposition to Pluto. Also, other major aspects are aligning at this lunation, seeding the energy of the coming weeks. Hours before the New Moon, Mercury in Leo was square Jupiter in Taurus bringing huge inner realizations and insights. Hours after the lunation, the Lunar Nodes ingressed Aries-Libra (from Taurus-Scorpio). On July 20, the Sun trines Neptune, Mars opposes Saturn; on July 21 the Sun opposes Pluto, and finally, Venus stations retrograde on July 22.

The tide is turning. What you initiate now, is likely to have far-reaching ripple effects. Still, it’s not all smooth sailing — we’re moving through choppy waters. But with sensitivity, care, creativity, imagination, and detachment, the coming days could bring about a total transformation in a situation where we’ve previously felt powerless.

Cancer rules our emotions, our most basic needs of food, shelter, and water, as well as our innermost needs for safety, and security — emotionally, physically, materially, and financially. It represents one’s home, family, food, nourishment, mothers, children, the bond between them, the womb, women, and matters of fertility.

We can expect these themes to be surfacing at the front and center of our life and consciousness over the coming weeks.

As you enter this New Moon cycle — stay inwardly focused, and acknowledge how you feel, and what you need to feel safe — emotionally, materially, financially, and on all levels. Clarify your needs, and goals, reflect on your limits, release power struggles, be fluid and move with awareness.

Cancer is a deeply sensitive, intuitive sign. With current aspects: our intuition and psychic senses are running high. Go with the flow, nurture your dreams, and pour your energy into what you care most about. But there could also be waves of nostalgia tugging at our heartstrings. It will take awareness to not get pulled into the undercurrents of past patterns.

Significantly the Nodes shifted to Aries-Libra (from Taurus-Scorpio) just hours after the Cancer New Moon. The Nodes are the shadow of the Moon and point to our destiny, fate, karma, and a cycle of birth and re-birth. Since November 2021, the Eclipses in Taurus-Scorpio have marked a process of releasing power struggles, and past attachments, as we consciously step into new territory.

With the Nodes in Aries and Libra: our relationships are in focus over the coming 18 months. We’re in the process of reclaiming autonomy, and independence, and forging a new path forward even if it means upsetting the status quo. If we are being authentic; we can trust situations will find their natural balance. That said be conscious, not to cut your nose to spite your face. Actions have consequences and none of us is independent. The Nodal shift at this Cancer New Moon is teaching us: at best, we’re interdependent creatures and we need each other. What matters is that we’re stepping out of co-dependent patterns to engage as adults, as we are today, in the present.

Notably, on July 20, the Sun trines Neptune and Mars opposes Saturn. We’re in the flow. Trust your intuition but proceed with awareness, as you reflect on your limits and re-adjust boundaries as necessary. Doors are closing, opening, and lines are being drawn. We live, we learn, we grow. At best this is a chance to learn our lessons, but to let the past be water under the bridge. In the words of Bruce Lee, “Be like water,” and you could find your way around something that has been an obstacle.

July 21: the Sun opposes Pluto bringing powerful revelations and transformation. With Pluto at the end of Capricorn, we’re in the final throes of a long slow process, chipping away conditioning handed down through generations, society, culture, and parental and authority figures.

With the Sun (and New Moon) opposite Pluto, there’s a need to face and confront our shadow. There might be deep insecurities welling up and we’re likely feeling mixed emotions. But this is an evolutionary moment, and a chance to reclaim power in a situation where you’ve felt powerless.

Examine your family dynamics, and family ideas surrounding security, success, failure, relationships, and money. We can’t change the past, or anyone or anything outside of ourselves. And nothing and no one can have power over us unless we give it away. Consciously step out of patterns of co-dependency, parent-child, and victim-perpetrator dynamics, release power struggles, and engage with life as you are today.

As we evolve from childhood patterns, trust, that inner transformation will ripple out to transform your world and relationship dynamics. Change always comes from the inside out and this is an inner-purification process. Something that has been a source of irritation (at the least) is leaving you with a pearl.

July 22: Venus stations retrograde in Leo, followed immediately by Sun’s entry in Leo. A bold, dramatic new season begins, inviting us to dare to dive deeper into our hearts and acknowledge its most burning desires. I’ll have more to say about this in the coming days. But Venus is the planet that rules our relationships, money, creativity, beauty, and all matters of the heart. As she stations retrograde we’re entering a process of deep re-evaluation of our relationships, creative projects, and financial situations.

Her retrograde in Leo isn’t for the faint-hearted and there may be dramatic developments unfolding around her retrograde station. There might be people and relationships from the past re-entering our lives. Or perhaps we’re seeing someone’s true colors, or being revealed the heart of a situation. We’re feeling naked, exposed, raw, emotional, and vulnerable — but there’s something awfully beautiful about this.

It will require confidence, courage, and vulnerability to acknowledge our desires and to drop the ego. But the rewards of our courage will far outweigh any risks. Leo represents the “eternal here, now” and Venus speaks of love and our values. Nothing lasts forever, except love. And the value we get out of our experiences has the potential to change and enrich our lives forever.

July 23: Mercury squares Uranus, continuing a process we’ve been in since mid-June, bringing unexpected communication, insights, and realizations. Remain detached, be creative, innovative, and keep an open mind. A small adjustment or mind shift might be all that’s needed.

July 25: First Quarter Moon in Scorpio squares the Sun in Leo marking the halfway point between the Cancer New Moon and the Aquarius Full Moon on Aug 1, 2023. Let go of emotional baggage and the ego. We’re at a turning point and this is a chance for course corrections.

To sum it up: as you enter this Cancer New Moon cycle, stay connected with your inner emotional landscape, rise above insecurities, and be gentle. Cancer is an extremely empathetic, caring, sensitive, and nurturing sign. Powerful emotions are welling up, everyone is feeling hyper-sensitive and we’re becoming aware of our needs. Boundaries are healthy, but a little sensitivity will go a long way.

This is very fertile energy, what you feed will grow. Let go of the past, and resentments, and nurture what matters to you, as you shape and bring dreams to life consciously. And where one door closes, another is opening. It might be as simple as being willing to ask for help, or what we want, or need. Just let go of expectations of others, (then you won’t feel disappointed) and pay attention to who shows up.

Cancer represents our most basic needs — and if you’re reading these words, you have an internet connection and likely have food and a place to sleep tonight. Be grateful. We may or may not always get what we want. But under these skies, there’s a strong suggestion, we will get what we need. It starts with daring to acknowledge it.

With Love,

Priya Kale

VIRGO SUN & RISING, JUNE 2023

Your career is in the spotlight in June. But first, a Full moon early in the month suggests a need to confront the past and your childhood honestly. Unexpected revelations are coming through, asking you to question what you thought you knew. Not all truths are easy to speak or hear, but they will liberate you. Rise above insecurities, and keep your sights on the big picture. The world is your oyster, and this is a breakthrough allowing you to make real progress and wise choices. Life is evolving, sparking and awakening (perhaps secret) desires and fears that you barely acknowledge to yourself. Be in no denial, then you won’t unconsciously self-sabotage all that is hopeful. You’re turning the corner a significant corner mid-month. Stay aligned with your goals, dig deeper for your integrity, and believe in yourself. As the Gemini New Moon aligns, you’re entering a new professional cycle. Reflect on and define what success means to you. You have the support of significant others in positions of power, inviting you to explore opportunities on the horizon. Reflect on your limits, and boundaries, but lower your guard as you focus on common long-term goals. Then you can deepen bonds that stand the test of time and distance. And if there’s any relationship you’re grieving, keep your perspective and have faith in the journey. As the Sun reaches the Solstice and you move to the end of the month —keep an open heart and dare to reach for the moon. You’re making connections that can help you materialize a long-held desire. Let go of expectations, and be open to serendipity. You may or may not get everything you want, but you will get what you need. At best, you could feel the kind of love that takes you to the moon and back.

TAURUS SUN & RISING HOROSCOPES, JUNE 2023

Anais Nin famously said, “Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage” and these are words for you to live by this month. Life is changing dramatically, profoundly, and powerfully, asking you to find your inner confidence. Your world is expanding and you have a lot to offer the world. Value yourself and allow space for a process of transformation in your relationships. A professional situation too is evolving. Now that you’ve seen the potential within you and it, re-evaluate your life goals, and vision as you explore the expansion opportunities. Financially and emotionally there’s gold to be mined. A close relationship is deepening to offer you more of the security you desire. Be true to your values and have more faith in yourself then you can negotiate win-win arrangements. Something you’ve hoped, dreamed, and wished for is within reach. Doors that were closed are opening. You have a lot to offer your community and may even be reconnecting with friends and partners. You’re not who you used to be, you’ve grown in wisdom and self-awareness. Confront the past honestly, but stay in the present. You can have what you want, but it starts be honest with yourself first. Then you can communicate honestly with others and reach a real breakthrough. Above all have more faith in yourself, and in the Universe — who is always listening and knows what you need without you having to ask. Life is a journey; wherever you go this month, be philosophical and go with all your heart.

We’re also officially in Eclipse season with the Cancer New Moon and Penumbral Eclipse — the first of the Eclipses on the Cancer-Capricorn axis — two weeks from now on July 12, 2018. The Cancer New Moon will also be opposite Pluto, suggesting it’s likely to be very emotional.

Dear Friends,

We’re past the Solstice now, moving towards a potent Capricorn Full Moon at 2+ degrees at 7:32 AM EDT; 12:32 PM GMT and 5:02 PM INT on June 23, 2013.

This Full Moon is also a Super Moon, given it’s current proximity to the earth and the Sun in Cancer the ruler of the Moon, our emotions are a lot more accessible and “surface.”

Full Moons bring revelations. And we are also now in a ‘Mercury storm’ as Mercury prepares to station retrograde on June 26, 2013 the same day as Jupiter enters Cancer. There is lot more information coming to the surface – and this energy feels like a watershed, clogged drain, high tide and flash-flood all at once.

But the Moon Capricorn can tend to compartmentalize emotions, so be conscious not to suppress them. As Uranus forms a loose T-square to this lunation, there are unexpected developments in the offing. And without self-awareness this energy can be rather explosive.

People are feeling hyper sensitive, and it may feel like you’re walking through a minefield in a sensitive situation, with many layers of implications. (And as much as I hate to even think of it, hopefully we won’t have more natural disasters.)

So it will require a conscious release of emotions and parental, societal, generational conditioning, as the Full Moon conjuncts Pluto, so we are not stuck repeating destructive patterns or exploding unconsciously.

This also means taking responsibility for one’s emotions while letting go of expectations of any external source of validation, or projecting blame, anger, frustration outward. Especially look at your relationship with authority or authority figures, and be willing to question where your conditioning comes from.

But no matter what is unfolding in your external world, the more you are able to see this as an inner journey, you will be sheltered through the storm. Then you can reach an inner breakthrough and rise above your insecurities, rather than have an emotional meltdown.

This Full Moon also triggers the Aries Point — marked by 0+ degrees Aries — suggesting it has major implications on a personal as well as global scale. With all the protests that have been escalating through the world — it’s awe inspiring to see this astrology come to life and there are more revelations, revolutions and unexpected developments around the bend.

Aries is the first sign of the zodiac — it marks the beginning of all existence — where the un-manifest (Pisces) becomes manifest and comes to life (Aries.) The key phrase for the Aries Point is “The personal is political.” Where one wo/man’s story becomes a voice and platform for every wo/man’s story.

And as much as Aries is the sign of the individual with personal implications, what is personal is only a microcosm of the greater whole. Each person is the center of the Universe and creation from their standpoint. And the realization of that humbling truth comes with a profound responsibility and need for self-awareness.

If you have planets around 2+ degrees of Cardinal signs — Aries, Cancer, Libra and or Capricorn — you are especially likely to feel this Full Moon and its effects, more profoundly and personally.

Dear Friends,

Welcome to a brand new day and a brand new week. Venus conjuncts Jupiter today, likely bringing signs of tangible success and a real reason to feel optimistic. Jupiter’s energy is expansive; Venus represents, love, art, finances, pleasure and is the symbol of the divine feminine. When these two come together in Capricorn an earth sign representing worldly success. Pluto has just moved into this sign and today we get a bouncing start, a peak from the top of the hill.

But this is not dumb luck, Capricorn is the sign of the mountain goat, ruled by Saturn currently forming a trine to the conjunction in Virgo. It asks for steady, determination, goals, planning and hard work; if we are prepared to do whats necessary, the rewards are guaranteed and handsome. Currently the Moon is also in Capricorn suggesting emotional grounding is available as well if we seek it.

Seek value within your relationships. Who are the people in your life that support your dreams and ambitions? And who is around for the good times? Any investment we make, emotional and financial can grow now gradually on a foundation of trust, sincerity, appreciation and consistency. The more depth we seek the higher the level of support and being able to build something healing and of value. Don’t be fooled by something superficial or a get-rich quick scheme. There also may be a tendency for over indulgence and spending more than you should, Capricorn says: just be sensible.

Notably today the Sun conjuncts Pholus in Sagittarius. Pholus is a centaur planet and has energy like a gush or torrential flow of water. It also has the tendency to release or bring to a surface ancestral patterns going back two or three generations. We could experience a great release of fiery energy, a surge of inspiration or a sudden divine glimpse into infinite potential. Sagittarius is the sign opposite Gemini, the sign that rules the mind. What is potential other than the end limit of our mind? If we can transcend this, there is no limit to what we can bring into manifestation.

If you can dream, you can do.
