Astrology Forecast October 21 – 27, 2024
The week begins with lots of curiosity and lively communication today under the Gemini Moon. The conjunction with Jupiter early in the day will reinforce our desire for exploration and new ideas, making it an excellent time to engage in discussion or pursue learning opportunities.
As the day progresses, however, the square with Neptune in Pisces may introduce some confusion or idealistic tendencies, urging us to remain grounded despite our lofty aspirations. The trine to the Sun in Libra that follows will return some harmony and balance, encouraging you to express your thoughts clearly and cultivate connections with others.
As the Sun moves into Scorpio tomorrow, we enter a season that invites depth, intensity, and transformation. Ruled by the enigmatic planet Pluto, Scorpio encourages us to delve beneath the surface, uncovering hidden truths and exploring the depths of our emotions.
The month ahead will be a time for introspection and self-discovery, where we may feel drawn to confront our fears and desires. Relationships may deepen, and we may find ourselves more attuned to the undercurrents of connection, seeking authenticity and intimacy. Embrace this transformative energy as it offers the chance to shed old patterns and emerge renewed, allowing for personal growth and empowerment.
With the Sun illuminating the passionate energy of Scorpio, this transit also encourages us to harness our power and embrace our shadow-side. The focus on transformation can inspire us to engage in meaningful conversations and uncover layers of understanding that have remained hidden.
Always Keep An Open Mind In Psychic Readings
In high school, I predicted that a friend of mine would lose something valuable and then have a car accident shortly thereafter.
I also warned him that the loss of something valuable would be an omen: a sign from the universe for him to be more careful and responsible.
He looked at me like I was crazy.
A few months later he lost his wallet because he had been careless. He later told me it reminded him of what I had said and it shook him up enough to start being more careful in his daily life. He even stopped his bad habit of never using his seat belt when driving.
Good thing he did. A few months later, he drove his car off a cliff! The police officer told him that he would have been killed if he had not been wearing his seat belt.
He brought up the story at our ten-year high school reunion and praised me as the person who saved his life. Of course, I did not mention the eye-rolling and “you’re crazy” look he gave me at the time. Besides, saying “I told you so” is not very dignified.
Not much has changed since high school. As a professional psychic, I still have to tell my clients things that makes them doubt our connection or my ability, and sometimes even my sanity! You learn to suck it up and deal with the raised eyebrows and side-eyes.
I understand how it feels for them, because I have had to keep an open mind as a psychic client, too. Many years ago, a medium told me that I would also work as a psychic one day. I thought this was really strange because I had been in the performing arts most of my life, and in my mind there was no way she could be right. But here I am today. Even psychics don’t always know where life is taking them.
Always Stay True To Your Soul Path And Purpose
Visiting a nursing home or retirement community and interacting with the residents can be a life-changing experience!
I recently had the opportunity to interact with a group of seniors and one of the things I asked them was, “If you could go back in time and start over, what would you do differently?”
To my surprise, the biggest regret most of them have is that they wish they had been more true to themselves and lived their lives their own way instead of pleasing others. One lady says she realizes she should have followed the original path her soul intended for her, instead of trying to live up to the expectations of others.
Another lady recalls how her life was shattered when a man she loved dearly and had devoted her life to unexpectedly left her to be with someone else. She said that was the day she realized she had wasted so much time putting her own dreams and goals on hold to make someone else the focus of her life. If she could go back in time, she would have handled this relationship very differently. In fact, she would probably never have gotten involved with him in the first place! “Never live for someone else, that is what I have learned,” she said.
Some of the regrets seemed heavy and intense. Some realize that too much time has passed and they cannot undo the choices they have made. There are potential joys and opportunities for personal and spiritual fulfillment that are now forever out of reach. One gentleman added that while there is much wisdom and truth in the saying “it’s never too late,” there are also the practical realities of aging and “missed deadlines” for some things in life.
Astrology Forecast October 14 – 20, 2024
Be prepared to navigate a volatile week with a series of planetary aspects that could prove to be an emotional roller coaster.
The ride begins early today with the Sun in Libra square Mars in Cancer causing conflict, especially in relationships or family dynamics, as the nurturing energy of Cancer clashes with Libra’s need for balance and fairness.
We may find ourselves caught between taking action and keeping the peace this morning. The key is to lean on the diplomatic energy of the Libra Sun and the emotional sensitivity of the Pisces Moon. Seek compromise without ignoring your personal needs or letting frustrations fester.
The Moon’s transit through Pisces today can also challenge us to honor both creative freewheeling and self-discipline at the same time. Emotion, intuition and imagination are at the center of today’s Moon in dreamy Pisces, inspiring us to tap into our creative side and let our imaginations flow freely.
However, the conjunction of the Moon and Saturn in Pisces reminds us that no matter how freely we dream and imagine, there is always a need for structure in order to turn our ideas and inspirations into action and practical results. Saturn’s grounding energy highlights emotional boundaries and responsibilities, urging us to balance our creative aspirations with practical limitations.
The influence of Venus in Scorpio opposing Uranus in Taurus adds an unpredictable layer to the latter part of this manic Monday, especially when it comes to love, finances, or personal values. Relationships may experience sudden shifts or revelations, and emotions may feel intense, so stay calm and grounded, with an open heart and a steady mind.
Serendipity, Synchronicity And The Symphony of Life
Something magical happened yesterday that reminded me of the many serendipities and synchronicities that miraculously unfold in our lives every day without us even noticing. We are in the right place, at the right time, doing the right thing more often than we realize – and it is no accident or coincidence.
There are many moments in our daily lives that seem to happen by luck or chance, yet they are perfectly timed events that have been orchestrated just for us.
These experiences, which many call “fate” or “coincidence,” are certainly not random occurrences. They are part of the intricate symphony of universal flow and divine order that weaves together the everyday magic of serendipity and the miracle of synchronicity for our highest good.
Yesterday I had a long list of errands to run downtown, two of which were on the same street. My intention was to first pick up something from a courier service and then drop off some household items I wanted to donate at a nearby animal charity shop.
However, on the way to the courier, I took a turn that I do not normally take, which took me directly to the charity shop instead. I was relieved to find a parking spot right outside the door as I had some heavy boxes and crates to unload. How ‘lucky’ that there was a perfect parking space waiting just for me, I thought.
But my ‘wrong’ turn turned out to be not only a blessing in disguise, but also a little miracle that kept on giving. Because I arrived at the store earlier than I had originally planned, I “accidentally” ran into a customer in the shop who was in the process of purchasing the kitchen blender I had donated to the charity over a month ago.
The Spiritual Wisdom Of Letting Go
I sometimes do readings for clients who feel they have to control absolutely everything in their lives. They are rarely calm, rarely happy, always frazzled. There’s a constant tension around them, a palpable anxiety, as if they’re always one step away from a meltdown, or even a complete breakdown.
Many of us have experienced this feeling or seen it in others – the compulsion to control every outcome, every detail, believing that by sheer force of will we can make life bend to our wishes.
But here’s the thing: life has a way of moving on its own, whether we like it or not. And often, the more we try to grasp and hold on, the more things slip out of our control.
A song that often comes to mind when I think about this is the song Let It Be by the Beatles. Let it be, let it be. There will be an answer, let it be. This timeless classic is a simple yet powerful reminder of the peace that can come from stopping to resist and simply allowing things to unfold as they are meant to.
Letting go is not about giving up; it’s about trusting that life has a rhythm, a universal flow, and when we align ourselves with it, life becomes infinitely more peaceful and enjoyable.
In my work as a psychic consultant, I’ve found that those who feel the need to control every aspect of their lives often carry a heavy burden of stress. They struggle to find joy because they are too preoccupied with micromanaging every little detail. Life becomes a series of hurdles and challenges, and instead of going with the flow, they are constantly swimming against the current. It’s exhausting and soul-destroying.
Astrology Forecast October 7 – 13, 2024
Today’s Waxing Crescent Moon in Sagittarius ignites a spirit of adventure and optimism, encouraging us to expand our horizons. With Venus quintile Pluto, deep emotional connections may also emerge, urging us to explore the transformative power of love and intimacy.
Meanwhile, Mercury’s bi-quintile with Saturn invites disciplined thinking, making this a perfect day to set intentions and strategize your goals. As the week begins, embrace this mix of exploration and depth, and use your newfound insights to move forward with confidence and clarity.
Jupiter goes retrograde on Wednesday, inviting us to turn inward and reflect on our beliefs, aspirations, and the larger themes of growth in our lives. This retrograde prompts a reevaluation of our goals and encourages us to assess what truly brings us joy and fulfillment.
As the planet of expansion slows down, we may find ourselves revisiting past opportunities or unresolved issues that need our attention. It’s a time to embrace introspection, allowing us to realign our paths and clarify our intentions, ensuring that the pursuits we engage in are truly aligned with our core values.
During this retrograde phase, it’s common to experience a shift in perspective. Where Jupiter typically encourages bold action and expansive thinking, its retrograde energy can lead to moments of doubt or hesitation. However, these challenges can be invaluable; they provide an opportunity to deepen our understanding and cultivate wisdom. By navigating this introspective journey with patience, we can emerge from retrograde more enlightened, equipped with fresh insights that will help us pursue our goals with renewed purpose and clarity once Jupiter resumes its forward motion.
