LIBRA: September 21 – October 20

You are in for a big surprise. One way or another any seeds you've sown are about to come back and show you that anything built on a lie will not succeed. Check in with yourself long enough to see whether or not the truth disappeared under a mass of other considerations; if it's still intact you will be recognized for your efforts. If, on the other hand, you've been out of integrity, or misled by someone other than yourself, there is bound to be some form of blowback, which in the end will teach you a lot about the price we pay whenever we get sucked in by the ego.

SCORPIO: October 21 – November 20

You guys are getting ready to meet up with the 'Cosmic Ball Breaker'. Depending on where you're at, the next stretch is bound to include various encounters with; the ravages of time, father issues, authority trips, all of your ambitions, and other forms of limitation that lead us all to believe this is what life is about. Don't let any of it get to you. At the same time, it's never wise to ignore what's right in front of your face. The bones of your existence and all of your beliefs are about to be tested by forces that will ultimately allow you to see if what you've created is real.

SAGITTARIUS: November 21 – December 20

It's always something; this time you've got to really consider whether you've got room for whatever has walked in the door. Sometimes it's good to put your foot down, or just say no and let others take care of themselves. You've got a heart bigger than China; and it's just as over populated with too many people to see, too many places to go, and way too much going on. More than anything, your life could use a huge shot of nothing. In the next few months you'll begin to see what I mean and see for yourself that it's quite possible to do more, with less.

CAPRICORN: December 21 – January 20

You get the sense that you're off the hook; if it looks that way, let's hope you don't start making your life nuts by taking on what isn't yours. Other people's burdens could easily wind up taking you off course. If this becomes an issue you need someone to remind you that you've got your own cross to bear. There's more to be said for allowing yourself to recuperate from a period of intense stress than there is for the idea that you've got to keep measuring up to everyone's expectations. Give me a break - and give yourself a break while you're at it!

AQUARIUS: January 21 – February 20

You have so much finesse when it comes to dealing with outer things. Not too many souls make it look this good. At the moment, spectacular issues and events are frothing to a boil and you are somehow being carried along in a slipstream of energy that is approximately 19 years old. There's a lot to suggest that you have nothing to worry about. The 'Full Circle-ness' of things is evidenced in the fact that you could look back on all of that and feel it approaching the next octave. Stay your course. This is no time to be distracted by anything but your best interests.

PISCES: February 21 – March 20

The way it looks you've finally figured out how to make this work. I don't know how much you've had to compromise, but you're about to see that for yourself. If it has paid off I am willing to bet that the next few months will present you with a raft of opportunities and a chance to come out from under whatever's been holding you down. As life begins to perk up you will wind up in the same coordinates with people you haven't seen in a dog's age. Regardless of how things ended at your last meeting don't let the past interfere with the chance to reconnect on your own terms.

ARIES: March 21 – April 20

Part of the problem has to do with the fact that you can't believe this; for better or worse, someone or something has blown the lid off all of your core beliefs. You can stand around waiting for life to spell it out or you can begin to realize that you need to change the way you see things before whatever you're looking at is gonna make any sense to you at all. For someone who is so fearless when it comes to everything else, this particular situation has you wondering why you're so confused about things that would be easier to grasp if you knew more about trust.

TAURUS: April 21 – May 20

You have more than one reason to celebrate. Depending on your situation, there could be beginnings or endings that are giving you cause to go "Whoo-hoo"! In a few months all of this will settle into something you can recognize. At the moment you are still overwhelmed and too moved by the way things have opened up to think about where they are going. In some cases you can only go higher. For others, time could easily reveal enough truth to show you that success is ultimately dependent on integrity and the extent to which we are willing to get out of the way.

GEMINI: May 21 – June 20

The three ring circus appears to be running smoothly. You are feeling big enough to handle all of it and looking forward to more. In the next few weeks you will begin to notice that what's moving along nicely will become subject to time constraints and timing issues. This means you're going to have to stop long enough to make adjustments and fix whatever gets broken before you go forward. If bigger and better is where you're headed, in order to go there you need to stay humble, keep it simple, and know enough to take everyone's interests into account.

CANCER: June 21 – July 20

It does no good to give yourself a hard time for falling into an old trap; so what? Things are crazy enough. Don't make them worse by beating yourself up. If you really look at your situation, everything's fine. The only thing that isn't working is the idea that whatever's going on should be some other way. You can only go by what's right in front of you, and right now, the scenery is changing too fast for you to be able to tell the difference between the forest and the trees, or stand a chance of being able to micromanage whatever your next move turns out to be.

LEO: July 21 – August 20

Don't kid yourself about the way this is going. You keep skirting the issue by telling yourself that you have it all figured out. Looking from the outside, it's so obvious that you need to make room for the idea that you have a lot to learn, not just about this situation, but about life itself. The next thing to open your eyes will come in the form of an opportunity to delve into something that will either take you away from all of this or teach you how to outgrow the belief that you know everything. There is so much yet to learn. Surrender to the need to be receptive to it.

VIRGO: August 21 – September 20

You're all atwitter about something. It could be love, change, growth or some higher form of inspiration that has you walking three feet off the ground. In the next few months you're going to see more than your share of wonderfulness. As things show signs of going over the top, it might be good for you to lose any illusions you might have about what's really going on. I don't want to bust your bubble but: when life gets like this there's a huge gap between what's right there in front of you and what only appears to be there when you put your rose colored glasses on. | RDW
