Astrology
An Accelerated Path
Many people come to me after years, sometimes decades, of trying everything else: Astrology, Numerology, Genetics, Past Life Regression, therapy, and so on. Years of being understood, validated, affirmed, and being told narratives regarding why they are the way they are, did not bring them all the answers.
There is worth in all of the above practices, both in Psychology and Spirituality, or Metaphysics. However, growth requires challenge, and we are now in a ‘feel good’ culture, where if anyone gets upset, there is the potential of backlash, or even a lawsuit.
In the 1960s there was an amazing education role play called Brown Eyes, developed by an elementary school teacher. You can look up the video online, as well as the reunion footage years later with the kids, who are now adults. The game created a scenario in which children, and later also adults, were able to experience the profound effects of discrimination, prejudice and racism.
However, teachers were eventually sued for doing this role play in class, because of the emotional upset caused by the experience. Of course, the role play was not upsetting to the minority children who experienced the discrimination and prejudice all the time in their daily lives.
Uranus In Taurus – What to Expect
Uranus, the heavy-hitting planet ruling chaos, innovation, New Age, technology, and genius, among other things, entered the stabilizing, sensual, material and money-oriented sign of Taurus in March this year. Uranus will remain in Taurus for approximately seven years, and will undoubtedly leave a mark in its wake.
How will this affect us? Since Uranus typically makes waves, and Taurus governs earthly concerns, such as money and the sensual world, I expect most obviously that we will see big changes in the world market and financial matters. We could see a change in currencies, and we might see technology becoming even more meaningful, in terms of our everyday commerce and exchange.
Since Uranus rules technology and Taurus the senses, we may find that people are discovering and inventing ways to experience the senses through technology, perhaps through virtual reality. Uranus rules airplanes and space travel, and therefore we may see the world develop a deeper investment in outer space territories, perhaps even establishing some sort of ‘new earth base in space,’ or something of that nature.
For individuals, Uranus in Taurus means different things, depending on how it aspects the planets in one’s unique chart. During its seven year transit, Uranus in Taurus will most significantly impact the Sun Signs of Taurus, Capricorn, Virgo, Aquarius, Leo, and Scorpio. When and how this impact occurs will depend on when you were born, and the specific time period that the transit is most sensitive to your Sun location.
Taurus, Brace Yourself For Uranus
If you are a Taurus, brace yourself. We are about to go through a major metamorphosis of sorts. Uranus entered the sign of Taurus on March 6, 2019 for the first time in the life of most Taurus born people alive on the planet today. The last time this astrological transit occurred was from 1934 to 1942.
As a fixed sign, Taurus born people are consistent and reliable. Fixed signs carve security, and are solid and stable. They do not like change, and prefer to keep things as they are. So when Uranus, the planet known to shake things up, enters any of the fixed signs, it tends to bring about swift change. Even more so with the stubborn bulls of Taurus… myself included.
Uranus is a slow moving planet and it will remain in Taurus until April 2026. Since Uranus moves so slowly, Taurus people born early, between April 20th to 30th, will feel the effects of Uranus first and strongest from now until approximately April 2020. Then, the later born bulls will have their turn dealing with Uranus. However, all Bulls, no matter when you were born, will feel the effects of Uranus.
When Uranus is moving through any sign, it brings about sudden and unexpected events… all the things Taurus tends to stubbornly resist. The good news is that with such sudden shifts comes new ideas and opening doors to new opportunities.

ARIES (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
Queen of Cups
The month of May holds for you Aries the opportunity to connect spiritually with not only those around you but with you yourself. If you’ve been feeling “out of sorts” and edgy for no reason you can think of then prepare to step into a period of tranquility. Your intuition will be at its peak so use this to look into the hearts, minds and actions of someone close, perhaps a significant other, to reveal their true intentions regarding you. Someone may seek you out for spiritual guidance, the solace of your kind heart or just to take bask in the knowledge that they are loved by you. Allow yourself to feel the peace and comfort you so freely give to others.
TAURUS (Apr 21 – May 21)
The World
May brings forth the realization of all you have worked so hard towards with such focus and determination Taurus. Your down to earth attitude and refusal to be beaten by obstacles or setbacks were just what was needed to get the job done and done well. This also applies to all areas of your life, i.e. romance, relationships, work, health and finance. Feel confident that, whatever your wish or intent whether for you personally or another, the Universe has chosen you to be the receiver or provider of long-held wishes or dreams. However, you also need to do what you can to accomplish the best outcome, as it needs your own special brand of “I can do this” to succeed.
Manifesting With The Lunar Cycles
In Astrology, the Moon is deemed to be the celestial body most relevant to our everyday life patterns and mundane activities. This is because the Moon is the fastest moving astrological body and thus it is more specific to our earthly rhythms and daily routines. We can see this effect in nature, as the Moon influences several of the earthly rhythms, such as the ocean tides, animal behaviors, and even women’s menstrual cycles.
Because the moon wields this kind of influence, we can ride her current, if we pay closer attention to her cycles, rather than swim against it when it comes to achieving our goals in life. You don’t have to be an astrologer to follow the rhythms of the Moon and use them to help you in getting what you want. Any old calendar will typically detail the lunar cycles, and all you need to do is hang one on your wall and take heed.
A basic understanding of the major lunar rhythms, and what they mean energetically, can easily be incorporated into your life and monthly routine, in order to make ‘big waves’ in your everyday existence.
New Moon
When you think New Moon, think increasing. The New Moon heralds the waxing moon cycle, which means between this time and the Full Moon, the Moon is increasing in size. Thus, the energy is conducive for bringing in new things, growth, and anything that we want to see more of.
If you wish to begin anything new, such as a fitness regime, diet or educational path, then choose this time, between the New Moon and the Full Moon, to launch your new endeavor. If you want something to grow, like a tree, or an investment, this is also a good time to get it started.
The Ideal Career According To Your Zodiac Sign
Astrology is a great tool for identifying your ideal career and the kind of employment that will fulfill your longing for soulful, meaningful work. Here are a few guidelines for the different signs of the zodiac and the careers they are typically drawn to, and may thrive in.
Fire Signs
Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
Energetic, impatient and independent Fire signs tend to crave adventure and love a challenge.
Aries is enthusiastic and outspoken as natural-born leaders. They prefer jobs that involve a certain amount of risk or challenge, such as fire fighting, law enforcement, competitive sports or the military. Any career that recognizes initiative, ambition and the ability to overcome many obstacles is ideal for them.
Leo loves being in the limelight and being in charge. They’re often drawn to careers that will bring them the respect and appreciation they desire. Of course, acting and any career in the entertainment field would be a perfect fit. But any profession that allows them to be the center of attention is a natural for them.
Sagittarius loves to be engaged with life and enjoy talking, writing, teaching and traveling. They’re well-suited to careers in education, publishing, law and the travel industry. Always energetic, Sagittarians prefer being outdoors and can’t stand any sort of job that keeps them stuck behind a desk.

ARIES (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
Ten of Swords
Feeling overwhelmed and fed up with whatever it is that life has tormented you with recently Aries? Stress and worry taking their toll? Are you guilty of over-working, over-thinking, or allowing your over-active imagination the power to cast unfounded doubts in a relationship? Tut, tut. Time to pick yourself up and dust yourself down as the worst is over, at least for the foreseeable future. Wounds inflicted by the cruel words of others will lose their power over you as you begin to heal. Take comfort in the realization that you survived and are now much wiser and more aware than before. Delegate what tasks you can while you work to restore your mental well-being. Any nightmares or upsetting dreams will cease thus ensuring a return to a peaceful and restorative night’s sleep.
TAURUS (Apr 21 – May 21)
Eight of Wands
Allow any ideas or plans regarding your work or career the unrestricted freedom to work for you this month Taurus. Don’t hesitate to apply for the job you’ve always wanted or put pen to paper as the first step in creating your own business plan. A fertile month for those wanting to plant the first seeds of a project, a plan or perhaps a new addition to the family. News of a successful job interview or agreement to a proposal arrives swiftly. Air travel, or travel in general is also indicated around the latter part of the month involving a couple or a group, traveling together to the same destination for business or pleasure or a combination of both. You will be feeling much more positive mentally and enjoy good health, or a return to good health physically. Continue reading
