In general: There is a good deal of challenging energy about early this week
but if you are prepared to be bold and brave you might also find yourself coming
out on top of things! It’s better to take a risk now than do nothing, at any
rate! With the Sun and Mercury in [poor aspect to Jupiter, it’s wise to think
before react to tricky situations or people. Venus enters Leo this week too,
offering us a bit of drama as well as the opportunity for lots of fun. From September
10th the energy will take a better turn and be quite will calm and positive. If
you celebrate a birthday this week then it will be tricky year ahead but audaciousness
will serve you well. On the world scene this may be a chaotic week with all manner
of altercations flaring up. Locally look before you leap!
Thought for the week: Courage doesn't always roar.
Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I'll try
again tomorrow. ~Mary Anne Radmacher
Aries
There is a solid tendency to focus heavily on work
at this time. This is a strong period for capitalizing on your future,
developing your present-day projects, and for progress driven by vigorous
competition. At this time too, you automatically
know how to make a really worthy impression on others.
Taurus
While you can be
fairly protective of your feelings now, you're nonetheless inclined to flirt
and socialize. You
may above all value the aesthetics in and around your immediate environment during
this time. You will do whatever you can to generate a peaceful and constant
atmosphere. You’re more creative than usual.
Gemini
It’s more about the tiny things that need your
attention than major career goals this week. Basically,
you are quite sociable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you
find importance in the exchange of ideas. Smoothing
over others differences using your intuitive diplomacy skills is highlighted now.
Cancer
If problematic individuals or difficult circumstances
upset you now, aim to treat this as passing energetic phenomena, rather than
seeing it as a personal attack. If you catch yourself airing your grievances do
so with control. Communications, short trips, errands, and general chaotic
activity feature.
Leo
Venus enters your sign this week, and the desire for
pleasure and luxury begins to take over. You
could find it hard to deny yourself anything now. Romantic matters, as well as
pleasure-seeking undertakings, come to the fore now.

you will get the best of your energy.
Virgo
September 7 to 10 can be trying but stay focused and
by September 11 you can plan for moving forward. You’re
more compassionate and empathic than usual. You
might decide to volunteer to help those who are in need. His is a time when Jupiter opens up opportunities for you in career
and standing.

and inspiration. You are more mindful of the
benefits of networking, and you might find prodigious ideas through others now. You are coming across well at work and idealistic
opportunities, or just more chances to socialize and network, are probable.

Try to dodge extremes, particularly with partners,
this week. If you stay calm on 10th you could gain a very useful insight
regarding your vocation and life roles. You could
decide to start learning something fresh, particularly related to foreign
cultures, philosophy, or writing. Listen to
your body's signals and fatigue limits.

Your wish for adventure, new experiences, and thirst

to reflect upon the "big picture".

Astral Peeks: Electional astrology
This is a technique
used to select the most favourable time for an event such as a marriage,
starting a business or moving into a new home. It's usually used for something
important and not for trivial matters. Electional
astrology is utilized in choosing the most appropriate time to begin something.
The intent is to achieve a successful outcome. The
election chart itself is drawn for the place where the event will occur at a
certain time in the future. At its best, an election chart will make use of the
most beneficial planetary alignments on any given day. Since the Moon is of
primary importance in all election work, she is given precedence, though the
rulers of the elected matter are also considered.
Meditation Moments: a Buddha story
One hot day, Buddha
and his disciple Ananda are walking through a forest. He says to Ananda, “We
passed a stream of water a few miles behind. Can you go back and get me some? I
am feeling quite thirsty. I would also like to rest a little.” Ananda
immediately nods his head and goes back to the stream. When he reaches it, he
finds that a few bullocks and a group of people have crossed through the
stream. It is muddy and covered with leaves and dust. The water is too dirty to
drink. Ananda returns without water. Buddha asks, “What happened?” Ananda
explains the reason and asks if Buddha can wait a little longer so he could
bring water from a big river a few miles ahead.But Buddha insists Ananda to go
back and bring him water from that same stream. Ananda is puzzled. But he knows
he cannot disagree with his master.
As he is leaving,
Buddha says, “Ananda, do not come back empty-handed this time. If the water is
dirty, you do nothing. Simply sit on the bank of the stream, and watch. The
time will come when the dirt will wash away and the water will be clear again.
Do not come back without the water. ‘When Ananda reaches the stream, he sees
the water is almost clear. It’s not as dirty as before. He sits on the bank and
watches the stream. Gradually, the dust settles down and the water becomes
clear. Buddha is right. Ananda understands the reason behind his insistence. He
fills up the water in the begging-bowl and runs back overjoyed. He thanks
Budhha. Buddha says, “I should thank you for the water, why are you thanking
me?” Ananda replies, “Bhagwan, At first I was mad because of the absurdity of
walking back 3miles on this hot day when I knew the water was dirty. Then I
didn’t understand the hidden message behind your persistence. Waiting and
witnessing the water, dust, and leaves made many things clear to me.
While I was sitting
on the bank, watching and waiting for the water to clear, I became aware of what
I had been doing wrong so far. If I had jumped into the stream and tried to
clear it then I would have made it dirtier. Similarly, if I fight with my mind,
if I jump into my mind, I will create more problems. and my mind will be more
unstable then before. Sitting on the streams’ shore, I understood the
fundamental key to meditation. Simply watching the thoughts, and just waiting
for it to be clear.”
