Libra, March 2010
Your Stars:
With a plethora of planets all packing into your 6th House of Work and Health this month your attention will be fully focused on making the best of your business while also possibly worrying about the well-being of an elderly family member too. First and foremost though, you’re strongly advised to take care of you at this point in time. Look, we all know how you put everyone and everything else ahead of your own wants and needs but this is THE month to make every effort to shift that personal paradigm and put yourself at the top of your own ‘To Do’ list. The Universe actually makes that a bit easier to do by offering big astro energies to fill that agenda with tons of potential and possibilities. You’ll definitely need to stick to a routine while all those planets swirl around in that same house since it’s the one that most influences and impacts all your daily ones. But let’s take a look at the lion as it comes out of winter. As mentioned earlier, the planetary party starts as early as March 3 when Venus and Uranus both get raucous inside the same 6th House of the Daily Grind. Instead of always playing by your strict set of self-imposed rules why not don the lampshade and do a little dirty dancing during these early days? You’ll shake off winter doldrums while opening up to new ways of thinking if you step out of your usual box at this time. With Mercury the Messenger getting a whole lot of assistance from passionate Pluto on the 4th you just might find that everyone around wants to hear what you have to say. The good news is that you won’t even have to choose your words, either carefully or otherwise. The right ones will just seem to come to you as if by magic! As if those energies weren’t encouraging enough, your ruling planet, Venus, slides into aggressive Aries on the 7th teaching you how to be a bit more assertive where your own needs are concerned as well. It’s about time. It’s about YOU. That’s all I can say. Well that and this. You’ve spent the better part of the last few years catering to everyone else’s needs and even though that’s been your choice, you need to pull the focus back on you now if you want to send a message to the Universe that you really are worth it. There’s a direct line of communication open right now for you to send THAT massive missive. Unless of course you want to stay stuck in the middle, spinning and spinning but never really getting anywhere. And you know what Steeler’s Wheel said about staying stuck in the middle right? Clowns to the left and jokers to the right. Uh huh. These days surrounding the 7th truly are the epitome of the axiom to “be careful what you ask for because you just might get it.” What are you waiting for Libra? I know, I know, it’s so out of character for you to go after anything that you want, but I’m guaranteeing a Win-Win situation on the 7th, so, please, go for it. All this optimism spills over into the middle of the month when a highly psychic New Moon merges with Mercury and Uranus to make you almost an intuitive yourself. Since this New Moon also impacts and influences that same 6th House of Work and Health, well, if you were to plant some seeds right now you can be sure that you’ll see some dearly held desires both blooming and growing before too very long. Spring breezes in with the equinox on the 21st also bringing a new sense of excitement into your life as well. Everything seems new. And lovely. In fact you feel as if you’re awakening right alongside the rest of the natural world. Stirrings and feelings that have been kept under the surface for so long suddenly yearn to burst forth. Let them. The Full Moon that rises on the 29th just might force some of those buried tensions to the surface anyway so why not get a proactive jump on them? This month offers you an opportunity to bring balance and harmony back into your life. Period. Pace yourself and keep focused on the task at hand and you should do just fine. Just fine indeed.
Your Shui:
You know how they tell you to put the oxygen mask on yourself first if there’s any trouble on the plane? The theory is that as long as you’re getting sustenance you can potentially help the weaker ones around you. Giving to yourself first, refilling and refueling your own well will allow for anyone else around to come and pull from you without depleting or depressing you. I just wish you would finally get the message that it’s time to put you first. The Universe is highlighting that same agenda all during this momentous month of March. Find a photo of yourself that you love, one in which you were really happy and one that showcases just you alone. Frame that picture in a wood and then position it somewhere inside your ‘Knowledge and Cultivation’ area of your bedroom. Every day, for nine days straight, light a white candle beside that photo and let it illuminate your own feelings of self love and self worth. Let it burn a bit each day but then allow it to burn fully out on the last day. This little act has a HUGE impact.
