In general: Then January 27th Full Moon in Leo highlights the way
to love and harmony in relationships. It will be an excellent weekend to take
some time off and have some fun. Leo loves entertainment, so if you can’t
afford to go out and simply enjoy. Social burdens will arise when individual restrictions
become just too much and people have to break out of the mould. If you have a
birthday this week then don’t make this year too serious, the best news come
when you are having fun. On the world scene the focus is on all things to do
with children and youth. Locally prepare to enjoy yourself on the full moon.
Thought for the week: Let a joy keep you. Reach out your hands
and take it when it runs by. ~Carl Sandburg
Aries
Your confidence and optimism get a boost this week when
an unbelievable amount can be achieved in a short time. This is a fairly happy, goal-oriented phase. A
dynamic agenda is assured, you're drawing quite a bit of interest, and your
energy for making positive connection with others is high.
Taurus
Your vision is practical right now, and you want to
see palpable results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is
likely now. Recognition is in the offing whether you ask for it or not, and the
responsibility that comes with it! Although ready to communicate with others,
you are less inclined towards light-hearted matters now.
Gemini
Physical energy can be on the low side this week,
but emotional energy and fervour are high. You're in a planning and dreaming
stage, gathering inspiration anywhere you can catch it. You are open to escalating your knowledge base
during this cycle and communications from or with someone far away may be part
of the picture.
Cancer
This can be an excellent week for getting the kind
of advice you really need to make imperative changes, particularly about your
career. This phase also brings greater in-depth
understanding and a leaning towards delving beneath the surface of matters to get
to the bottom of them.
Leo
Emotions run especially high this week, as the Full
Moon is in your sign. Watch for pressures or idle chit-chat interfering with
your work productivity during this phase. There is a lot of weight on your communications
at this time. Any difficult issues that have been hidden away can now be
handled candidly.
Virgo
This phase offers an increased opportunity to be rid
of those things don’t work in your life. You might pursue excellence in your
work. Effectiveness must be your objective now. Creative
self-expression is favoured now. You can be fairly prosperous at what you like
doing right now.
Libra
This week your personal confidence builds and you
are more willing to share of yourself and your innovative ideas. You are likely to be feeling pretty good overall,
and want to share the happiness. This
can also be a great time for any home-related acquisitions or gifts. Good companionship is vital to you throughout this
cycle.
Scorpio
You can experience a lot of energy centring around
the home or with family this week. You might be renovating or reorganizing, or
you could be getting many visitors. You will enjoy speaking about what
interests you and you may discover great value in the exchange of innovative ideas.
Sagittarius
This week try to remember that it’s not an attack
against you personally if somebody doesn’t agree with all that you believe in,
and that you’re not permanently the one who is right. Choose your words wisely as well now as you can
speak without fore-thought, and this can lead to difficulties!
Capricorn
This week, you feel heavier, more serious, and are
deeply affected by the things that happen to you, whether it’s merited or not.
You may get stuck in a nasty mood unless you ace yourself head on and make an
effort to resolve issues. This is also a
restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off!
Aquarius
You need to take a good look at your relationships.
You may choose to cut ties with someone, and it’s sensitive, but needed. You
could take another relationship to the next level however, bringing more of a
commitment. Using the authority of
words to attract what you want works best for you at this time.
Pisces
Something in your work environment may change. You
could resolve a health issue or eradicate a bad habit. Be particularly attentive to taking breaks and rest periods now. Major
decision making should possibly be kept for later. You seem
to be a little secretive or tight-lipped with others.
Astral Peeks: Solar Activity
The Sun is a constant star. While some stars exhibit
dramatic pulsations the luminosity of our own sun varies a measly 0.1% over the
course of the 11-year solar cycle.
There is, however, a dawning realization among
researchers that even these apparently tiny variations can have a significant
effect on terrestrial climate. A new report issued by the National Research
Council (NRC), "The Effects of Solar Variability on Earth's Climate,"
lays out some of the surprisingly complex ways that solar activity can make
itself felt on our planet.
The full report, “The Effects of Solar Variability
on Earth’s Climate,” is available from the National Academies Press at http://www.nap.edu/catalog.php?record_id=13519.
It’s an interesting read!
Meditation moments: Meditation for children
Meditation techniques for
children can help them relax and focus better during school, so that they can
concentrate and memorize more effectively. From the spiritual perspective, good
meditation techniques teach children self-awareness, encourage them to be
themselves, and help them face life with greater belief in their potential. Deepak Chopra, says on his website that “there’s
no hard and fast rule” for meditation readiness, but names “8 or 10 years of
age” as the earliest conceivable moment. I
believe a great idea for parents is to take advantage of meditation as a
replacement for the traditional time-out, especially with children prone to
temper tantrums or who have little control over their emotions. Instead of the
boredom and frustration that can arise from being sent to a corner with nothing
to do, parents can send children to a calming area of the home and guide them
in a meditation. The deep breathing and relaxation of meditation will soothe
the tantrum, and you can even guide them in visualizations of appropriate
behavior or positive play.
