Mercury has finally gone direct! We are free to initiate and follow through with manifesting our new ideas, hopes and wishes.

Let us continue combining our Hope with its allies Courage and Commitment as we move forward towards a better world. As always, remember who you are and what you stand for. I repeat last month’s advice (and until our results are achieved, I’ll keep repeating it): 2017 will bring big changes, many fraught with turbulence and previously unthinkable occurrences and events. We must all remember that each of us is capable of doing potentially mysterious, empowering deeds and of displaying courage, integrity and heart so vital and vibrant to the continuation of all that we hold dear– and then, we must do them.

Now, more than ever, this quote must speak to us and for us:

“Become a possibilitarian. No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are, raise your sights and see possibilities—always see them, for they’re always there.” Norman Vincent Peale

THE EMPEROR (March 21 – April 20) You’re experiencing an “interesting” Spring. The winds of change are no longer stagnant. They’re blowing away the old energy that previously blocked your progress. You can now move forward with your hopes, wishes and plans. Support will come from the most unexpected sources.

THE EMPRESS (April 21 – May 20) Turning lemons into lemonade is much easier than you think– all it takes is a change in perspective. The challenge and gift for you this month will come in the form of a series of challenges. If you approach them as opportunities to build your faith, trust and right action muscles, and focus on the solution and not the problem, you’ll turn the challenges into victories.

THE LOVERS (May 21 – June 20) It’s time to  ground yourself by sinking your hands into the earth and working in your garden. The basic elements of life are nurtured in the healthy soil that sustains and supports you. Reconnect with it and learn how much you’ve grown.  If you don’t have a garden, buy a small potted plant and help it to grow to fruition. You’ll be helping yourself grow, as well.

THE CHARIOT (June 21 – July 20) It’s important that you honor the need for you to become introspective. Please keep your own council and seek your own truth. Other people’s opinions and belief systems will only interfere with the important growth phase you’re in now. Stay away from the temptation of seeking approval from outside sources as you navigate the still, deep waters of your emotional foundation.        

THE SUN (July 21 – August 22) This is a dress rehearsal for the Summer season for you. Make sure you approach life as if it’s a party! It’s finally time for you to free yourself from the necessity of taking care of other people’s problems. Please do remember to honor yourself and celebrate your natural brilliance.

THE HERMIT (August 23 – September 22) Things are on the upswing for you as you enter an entirely new cycle. By working with your natural skills of pleasant, patient persistence, you can overcome any obstacles. As things settle down, remember that successful creativity, beauty and profit are often born of chaos (and good planning).

JUSTICE (September 23 – October 22) All signs point to you being a winner, so keep doing what you’ve been doing– it’s working. The clarity you’re seeking is finally at hand. You have the Universe’s attention and support. Please make the most of it and do remember to be grateful to those who’ve helped you.

THE MAGICIAN (October 23 – November 21) Even though you can relate to matters in a practical way, that facts alone won’t help you gather the information you need right now. You have a terrific intuitive sense and combining the strength of your intuition with the power of your intellect will provide you with all of the answers you’re looking for. Please do pool your information gathering assets for a winning result.

THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE (November 22 – December 21) You’re nearing the end of a life-changing cycle. Take time out to acknowledge how far you’ve come. Please be as kind, considerate and compassionate to yourself as you would be to others in your situation. Within the next few months, you’ll be able to shift your focus and enjoy the fruits of your efforts.

THE WORLD (December 22 – January 19) “God’s delays are not necessarily God’s denials.” This quote is an oldie but a goodie and it reminds you that your hopes and wishes are in the process of manifesting in your life. Please do keep that in mind as you wait productively for your wishes to come true.

THE STAR (January 20 – February 19) The most important question for you in your quest for your own personal truth is: “Am I being true to myself or am I just going along to get along?” The answer, of course, lies within you and no one can tell you which way to go. Hint– follow your heart and free yourself of labels.

THE MOON (February 20 – March 20) A rare opportunity has come your way. Your instructions are as follows– remember that a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. What does that mean? You’ll benefit from keeping both feet on the ground and being practical as you go about making the best of your new prospects.
