In general: This is a great week for meeting new
people, and getting to know those we already know better. It’s not a week for
the mundane and routines are not high on the agenda! There is a Virgo New Moon on September 16th,
which is good for beginning all things to do with gardens, the environment and
health. This New Moon is the perfect time to initiate a plan for better self-care
and improved health. Pluto turns direct now and this energy coupled with a
difficult aspect to Uranus will more than likely add a little chaos and disorder
to our lives. If you have a birthday this week then expect the year ahead to
push you towards getting health and fitness issues in order. On the world scene
it can be a week of accidents and odd fracas, locally enjoy your friends.
Thought for the week: Life is not about how fast you
run or how high you climb but how well you bounce. ~Vivian Komori
Aries
Keep your options open, and expect the unexpected
this week. This is an especially busy time for people who do consultancy work or
have clients one-on-one. There is an emphasis on communications at this time.
You can use words to counsel others or to make peace with people in your life.
Taurus
You may show a keen interest in improving your basic
skills in the work place now. You are disposed to learn new skills, or to
improve your present skills at work. You're more ready to take risks on a
mental level at this time, so take benefit from the amplified spontaneity and
ingenuity that comes this week.
Gemini
The end of the week comes with a caution about
overspending! Try and take control over your temptations! You have more energy
for work now but you have a larger workload than usual too. Your heart is with
your home and family now, and these areas of life seem to demand more of your
attention than usual.
Cancer
This week brings some complicated energy at work or
with a partner. Old wounds from childhood can easily be stimulated now. Do be
careful not to over react. There
can also be a tendency to fuss over insignificant matters at this time.
You're
on the threshold of big shifts and changes in attitude and this can unsettle
you.
Leo
Others find you particularly agreeable and
cooperative now. You are more gracious, well-behaved and affable now. Appreciate
the happy times you are experiencing at this time, when being with your loved
ones feels good and building material strength is easy. Venus adds a new burst
of any to close relationships.
Virgo
Love is complex and confusing at the moment. You may
require some time to yourself to sort out your feelings. Discussions can easily
become heated and even escalate into arguments at this time. It’s most probably
because you are taking things very personally right now, and are quite
over-sensitive.
Libra
This can prove to be a restless time when it is tough
to turn the thinking processes off, even when it would be better to let go and unwind!
You benefit most from a little light relaxation now. However, it is a particularly
productive time for any endeavour that requires you to deal with words, ideas,
or facts and figures.
Scorpio
This is a good time for research, silent
contemplation, and meditation; you are likely to need a certain amount of seclusion
in order to get your thoughts composed enough to be creative and productive. You
are attracted to personal challenges this week. However, be careful not to push
yourself too hard.
Sagittarius
The new moon could offer you a new opportunity to
further your career, or get acknowledgment for work that you’ve already done. You
may resolve to start a new life path and take things in a new direction now. For
those of you that are creative, you might feel more inspired and stimulated by
your emotions.
Capricorn
The end of the Pluto retrograde in your sign will
pick the pace up in your life and allow you to work through your feelings and
personal challenges again. Where you have felt stuck you should find the energy
moving freely again! It’s time to think about where you are going in life and
decide what steps to take next.
Aquarius
You could have to deal with finances more
prominently this week; you will need to settle a debt, get a loan or do
something that requires the signing of papers. You may decide to learn something
new or take a class in something. It’s easier for you to learn and absorb new
things now. You are feeling adventurous.
Pisces
This is the beginning of a good period for work and
personal projects. Whatever work you do now, it seems easier for you to do it. It’s
also a good time for dealing with your health and trying to get healthier. This
is a good period for your relationships. You can get closer to someone or begin
a new supportive relationship.

Meditation Moments: Breath
As you read this, you are breathing, and yet you are
probably not aware of your inhalation or exhalation. Perhaps you have other
thoughts playing on your mind. You might be thinking about a particular person
in your life, wondering about the state of the world, planning an appointment
you have later today or recalling a conversation you had yesterday. Meditating
provides you with an opportunity to
disconnect from the mind’s endless ponderings and experience the harmony of
being fully in the present moment . . . the here and now that is so deftly squeezed
between your past experiences and your future dreams. Right now, today, in this
moment, I ask you to take a few minutes to disconnect from your own busy
thoughts and activity and be aware of your breath, listen to its sound, notice
the coolness of the air passing through your nostrils as you breathe in and its
warmth as you breathe out. Allow yourself a moment to celebrate the gift of
breath, the gift of life.
