How
to Treat your Capricorn |
|
|
|
Your
Capricorn is so much more than a mischievous mountain goat. This
playful kid can merrily prance to the top of any hill. Life is a
cherished challenge for your Capricorn, who is always prepared for
the long haul. His tremendous patience and perseverance is only
possible because he also knows how to enjoy life. Picture impish Pan
with his alluring flute. To Capricorn, it is all one, great long game.
If
you have the good luck to have captured capricious Capi, rest
assured that you will never go without. Your Capricorn never gives up
- your life will only get better and better. Practical, persevering
optimism is built into your Capricorn, along with a strong sense of
responsibility and keen powers of observation. Capi goes for the
ultimate in personal achievement.... and you are in for one long
goat-ride! And I mean that in every sense of the word!
How
can you show proper appreciation for your hooved companion? Well,
first off, remember that Capricorn is a leader. Either go with the
program, or come up with something better. Second, your Capi needs to
feel needed. Tell him how successful he is and recognize his
monumental efforts. Take notice of every step up the ladder. Third -
make your Capricorn take time out for fun and adventure. She might
only see in one direction - up! Encourage her to turn her head around
from time to time and look at the scenery. Finally, take your Capi's
love completely seriously. He might be having a wonderful time, but
when it comes to love - there's no funnin'. Capi plays completely for keeps!
Don't
be put off if she shows a serious demeanor in public - that's just
her way of assuring a spotless reputation. Be his partner in the
business of life. Recognize the playfulness in your Capi's heart.
Remember that you are blessed with a companion who will get younger
and younger with time, and who willl give you many years of devoted
attention to your needs.....and good, long lovin', too....no kidding...

How
to Treat your Aquarius |
|
|
|
Aquarians
are a slippery lot. A fixed Air sign, it may seem that your
water-bearing friend is always on a crusade or a mission. Well he is!
When the Aquarian gets an idea in his head - there's no way of
getting it out unless you come up with a better one. The Aquarian
gets involved in a project, then in the wink of an eye he's off to
start another. And every project has new, pressing importance.
So
why are Aquarians slippery? Because the moment that Uranian
lightning bolt strikes your ingenious friend, she will slip right out
of your hands! Your Aquarian has the potential to save the planet,
convert all her friends to a new religion, or take off on a dangerous
adventure of discovery. And danger doesn't get in her way!
Your
Aquarius friend or lover needs the freedom to follow inspiration,
ideas and dreams. He thrives on communication and travel, excitement
and changes, science and technology, the strange and extraordinary.
Aquarius lives and breathes for new experiences. They help him to
form his very solid opinions on life. You show your friendship best
when you give him every opportunity to expand his mind to the
fullest. Also, your Aquarian makes friends wherever she goes, and
each one is special in her heart.
Understand
that her openness is not a threat to you. Give her the freedom to
make new and fascinating connections! Better yet, be a part of the adventure
Feed
your Aquarian with respect, friendship, unusual outings, group
activities, modern clothes and new ideas. Show interest in his
musings. Let her know how bright and intelligent she is. Protect your
Aquarian from harm. You will be rewarded with devotion, fun times and
a little wildness!!

The
Devil in the Tarot |

The
Devil is associated with the Sign Capricorn in the Tarot
~
Attachment ~
Most
religious traditions and spiritual practices serve to distract us
from worldly cares and direct our attention to a higher social and
spiritual vision. We are asked to have faith, to examine our actions,
and to behave according to a prescribed set of rules that demands
that we help others, and hurt no one. The Devil represents that
spirit who does not play by these rules! Now before you take all the
following in - there is a positive side to this card as well..
The
Devil, man or woman, child or elder - steps on everything and
everyone to get where he wants to go, and attain that which he
desires. He represents the lowest expression of humanity. What may be
shocking to hear is that most of us, at some time in our lives, has
been this demon.
What
makes the Devil act so selfishly, and without regard for others?
This may sound strange - but the Devil lives in FEAR, and Fear is
what motivates him. Fear is the opposite of Love. True love gives
unconditionally, and trusts without question. The Devil cannot love
or trust - he assumes that everything important in his life will fall
apart if he does not FORCE his hand, and grasp all that he can. It is
the people who live in fear who torment the faithful, and who need
our patience and love. They need to get a spritual grip!
The
Devil is attached to that which he desires. He is afraid to let go,
because he is weak in spirit, and lacking in love and trust. So he
enslaves, deceives and acts with violence. He is the rapist, thief,
abuser, murderer, spy, torturer and tormentor. He holds people
hostage, and conceals his weaknesses with lies. There is no end to
the damage he can do - but ultimately, the greatest damage is to himself...
Click
the link to read more about this card, and remember, attachment is
not in itself evil, and "holding on" can serve an important
purpose in the long run... as long as we hurt no one in the process!

The
Outer Planets - Chiron, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and the Lunar Nodes
~^.

Uranus
in Pisces! ... Uranus will stay in the Sign of the Fish 'til
2011! Spiritual Revolution you say?? Yes, that would describe it
well. What can we expect with Uranus in Pisces? Perhaps our ideas
about death, sacrifice, the fantastic and impossible, transcendence
and service to humanity will take some dramatic and innovative turns.
We can hope that humanitarianism will take on new meaning and
purpose, and that service to others may become a more integral part
of our social order. With this placement, Uranus can become quite
reclusive or fanatical. Scientists who may have been hiding out for
years in research can bring new and surprising inventions and
discoveries into our midst, and Political Messiahs may come out of
the woodwork. With Uranus and Neptune in mutual reception - they will
rely upon each other more than usual, and herald perhaps a renewed
and revolutionary (Uranus) vision for humanity (Neptune) The cost may
be a certain amount of turmoil and confusion regarding just where we
are going for humanity, and will probably not be without conflict.
Neptune
in Aquarius (til 2012) is helping to set our expressions of love
and creativity into positive, innovative motion. A change in the
prevailing style in movies, fashion and art will be seen in the
months and years to come - probably bringing much more in the realm
of the unusual, shocking, rebellious, and inter-cultural.
Pluto
in Sagittarius speaks of honesty. While Pluto remains here (till
1/25/2008), we are all challenged to be true to ourselves and others,
and to accept and nurture the rich diversity of humanity and our
animal companions on this earth. The world is our family, and those
who are not willing to find, or at least look for the wisdom of the
ages - reflected in many ways through many religions, traditions and
philosophies - will surely suffer a crisis of faith.
Pluto
is on the Sagittarius/Capricorn cusp from 1/26/08 until 6/14/08,
harboring in a new Plutonian era of change in our social
institutions, government and power structures. The very fabric of
society may begin to be re-woven - these are exciting times!! With
Pluto entering Capricorn accompanied by Venus and Jupiter, we may
indeed feel blessed with good fortune, harmony and high ideals!
The
powerful Neptune/Pluto septile, exact on Dec 1, 2006 and Feb.
21, 2007 will last (going in and out of close orb) into 2011! For
those of us who are very creative, tremendous inspiration can bring
influential, explosive, mind-blowing creations. In love - the
potential for making inspired changes is heightened - yet there also
exists the possibility of getting lost in confusion. Avoid falling
into a pit of despair, or indulging in self-destructive activities.
Getting nowhere fast? Look for Creative and Healthy, Inspired, Loving
outlets to save your skin! Get involved in helping others.... this is
especially important now! Neptune/Pluto can bring a fanaticism wthat
has not been seen since the last such aspect at the beginning of
WWII. Yet - this aspect is also very positive for creating lasting,
humanitarian changes throughout the world.
The
North and South Nodes are now on the Aquarius/Leo axis ('til
8/21/09). This node placement brings positive connections based on
love for humanity and the quest for social equality, along with
healing in the area of self-love and love for loyalty's sake. This is
a good time to examine our motives, use our egos wisely, and take the
high road - or face karmic consequences!
Chiron
in Aquarius... This archetype of human compassion will be
passing nonstop through Aquarius from January 06 til Feb. 2011,
bringing a period of higher inspiration in the realm of healing. We
may look forward to greater cooperation worldwide in the healing
sciences, and perhaps going back to tradition - those time honored
ways that our ancestors enjoyed and practiced in harmony with nature.
Perhaps we may find more and more "health" foods (ie
unaltered and unprocessed) on our grocery shelves, greater acceptance
of mind-body healing approaches, and some brave new ideas to surface, too.

Mewsings
from Venus & Mars... January 2008 |
|
 |
|
Mars
is retrograde in Gemini (from 1/1 until 3/5/08 when the red
planet is back again in Cancer). This placement for Mars brings the
ability to multi-task, and a greater focus on our communications,
community and education. For lovers who are very jealous or
possessive, this can be a challenging time. It will be important to
honor responsibilities, keep it real and honest, and not jump to conclusions!
Venus
in Sagittarius until 1/25 is opposite Mars (by sign placement,
and exactly on 1/19-20), and brings a need for freedom, honesty and
wisdom. All month long, couples can expect joy, optimism, humor,
great ideas and good times! Exploring differences honestly can bring
greater awareness and respect.
Venus
in Capricorn 1/25 to 2/17 is a bit more somber, likes to take
charge, and wants to make sure things are moving forward. Lovers may
tend to be more earthy, demonstrative and playful in private, yet
very proper in public.
FUTURE
FORECAST FOR LOVE
The
first week in January, Mars opposes Pluto (exact 1/2),
Jupiter quintiles Uranus, and Venus quintiles Neptune and squares Saturn, bringing
strong sexual energy, the will and desire to create change, and
ample imagination and determination to make big things happen. It
will be important to be especially aware and careful not to
antagonize, take unnecessary risks, or push too hard.
During
the second and third week in January, Mars quintiles Saturn,
Jupiter octiles Neptune, and Venus sextiles Chiron/Neptune and
squares Uranus People who are earnest about getting things
done will get them done with a vengeance, and use every resource and
ounce of creative and intellectual energy they can muster.
Interesting things can happen, and amazing connections can be made!
during
the fourth week, Venus conjuncts Pluto/Jupiter, opposes Mars
and quintiles Uranus, among many other Venus contacts. Feminine
power, spiritual and intellectual healing forces, imagination and
hope will be strong - and some may be bowled over with change and renewal.
~
The Big Guys ~
Jupiter
in Capricorn til 1/5/09 will help set the stage for societal
changes, and perhaps help to broaden the horizons of our policy
makers and power brokers. This can be a year of making great leaps
forward, taking chances, and making new ways the status quo.
Saturn
in Virgo 'til July 21, 2010 brings our focus to the things of
the earth.. the cleanliness and purity of our physical environment.
These coming years can bring a stronger sense of purpose and
responsibility within our social institutions, government and
authority figures regarding the sanctity and protection of our mother
earth. A wonderful time this can be!! Let's feel our earth permeating
society, and becoming the central focus for all we do!
