ARIES

Old wounds are continuing to inflict the sharpness of memories held from scars you have held since childhood.   There is the sadness of the nurturing loss you might have gone through at this time as Chiron goes through Aries.   Mars has moved into Aquarius and you feel a bit unsteady at the thought of what is to come….You are not so sure of yourself as you might have been with the fiery planet keeping you going.   It is time to stop…and if you don’t the Universe will tell you very politely….take a rest.   Stop the victim mode mentality you can sometimes enter as Chiron reveals your wound.   It is deeply held and it will be the gift you have waited to find in yourself.   But like the child who is desperate to be seen and acknowledged you must get through the anger or resentment that comes up and realise You needed to be your own witness…..you can do this!  Don’t play the blame game Aries…you are better than that!!  Sit on the mountain if you have to and be one with everything.   You have to come back down sometime…mountains look quite pointy and possibly not that comfortable to sit on…Remember Uranus…..

TAURUS

Well Taurus …Happy Birthday Month ..as we move into the sign of Gemini soon.   I hope it was a great birthday.   It should be as Uranus has just moved into your sign for the next seven years and this means a whole new game change for you.   You have waited too long for recognition and satisfaction of getting a job well done!    The last seven years brought you especially life changing events and you are not the same person you were.   You are glad, but a little nostalgic as well as you miss the people you have lost along the way and the growing up you have done.    It is ok.   It really is…. you wanted to have excitement, a voyage of the unknown…well here it comes..so hold on to your seat belt Taurus and shoot for the Moon and if you miss you will be playing among the stars as your world takes on an adventurous path of discovery.   You are a Star!!!

GEMINI

Well hello old friend…. How are you?   Nice to see you again.    You have become rather shy and retiring lately and there is a good reason.   You are more discerning with whom you share your inner world and your good heart.    There is so much more to you than people realise.   Yes you can be the wizard…the good cop bad cop and the messenger.  But you can also be the one who is the child of the Universe.   An innocent heart who sometimes comes out to play or to have a tantrum!!!  Let us stick with the first instance.   Yes you have had set backs over the last seven year cycle and you have had many triumphs.   Some you keep well hidden for fear of judgment.   Now is time to shine.   Like so many aspects of this evolution it is about being seen and not being behind a veil of silence.    What do you dream of Gemini?   What does that good little heart really want?  Not what you think others think you want…but what do you really really wish for?   Make that wish a big one and look up to the stars as they shoot by.  You are entering a good time in your life.   A cycle of harmony you haven’t had in a long time.   Sing!!!!

CANCER

Well Cancer.  Me old duck… how are you lol!!   Its been a bit of a let down really hasn’t it.   All that build up and then…flat as a pancake…what now!!  You hoped you were on the trail of something so amazing only to find it was just another gravy train.   Bless your little cotton socks.   And now you find yourself sitting in your deck chair with a can of something flat and think what the fudge was that all about.    Well lets have a look!!  You see you were on a spin cycle if you like.   A karmic cycle like no other over the last seven years and you cleared a lot.   You cleared a lot of other people!!!  So now as you sit and think why do I feel so sad….or so lost.. even when I am happy!!! Its because you need to clear out the closet.   Get those monkeys off your back and tell them to get their little ass back to the jungle.    Mamas home and she ain’t happy.   This age we enter is the age of Mother.   Woman.   She is roaring through the Heavens and Earth and Cancer is the sign associated with mothering, nurturing, the Moon and …well the crab…. but we won’t go there baby…hell no… Walk sideways if you want but you won’t escape this.   Oh my what you say?   Well  pssst…come here and let me whisper….(you see Cancer… you are going to……BE SO VERY HAPPY AND CONTENTED…that you might feel a little guilty!!!)  Why..because you have been so busy carrying a lot of little monkeys and well over the next seven year cycle you are letting them go… as we speak (or type lol).    Enjoy the wind at your back and the sun on your face you little trouper.  This is the Big One.

LEO

Gold Finger…Hes’s the man …the man with the ….whatever… lol.   But just like the infamous Bond film you are sitting on a little gold mine Leo.   Oh yes baby.   Don’t you know it.   But you don’t really want anyone else to know it ..just yet.. just in case.   lol   You are the most generous in the world Leo, but also the decidedly short arms long pocket syndrome at times.   Well crack open the code on that bank book Leo.   The code is 1800 crack a smile why don’t ya….lol    Because as a party person it is time to live life as if it is one long party (well we know ….).  But the basis of this is start LIVING.   Stop waiting to and start doing it before you find yourself in the rocking chair with a bunch of cats and a bowl of custard… Not a great combo by the way lol.    You are the child of the Universe Leo and you have gone through a few rough eclipses over the last year with Aquarius, your opposite sign (your shadow).   And much as you hate to admit it…go on I can feel you clenching those buttocks Leo….admit it…lol.   Yes you do like to have a little moan and gnashing of teeth…as the little child of the Universe ..but you are also the most amazing heartfelt human being!!! You would go way and beyond for other people but sometimes you have to say…don’t save it for a rainy day because when the rainy days come you have missed out on all the rainbows and pots of gold that are right here right now with people you love.    Leo’s love the thought of love but are not very good at acting it out lol.    They love the thought of anything…its getting to the point of living it you are at now.    LIVE AS IF YOU HAD A FIREWORK IN YOUR POCKET AND IT COULD GO OFF AT ANY MOMENT!! LOL.. Because your sign is heading in one direction and that is happy town!  Let those who are jealous stand back and watch you smile…no karma intended and harm none…but really come on …. why wait!!!!

VIRGO

Send in the clowns..there ought to be clowns…oh sorry..maybe next year!!!!…..Well like the lines of the song Virgo you are waiting.   Yes you are waiting.   ….sorry are you still waiting!   Oh dear you are.   Can I ask what for?   Like a lot of signs there is the impetus to say come on grow the…fudge up… get the finger out of the wherever it is and start doing something.   Its like watching a thriller that doesn’t actually reach a thrilling point because it goes on for three hours too long.   And the hero is a nerd who doesn’t turn out to be a hero because he is still wearing the cardigan his mammy knit him when he was eighteen!!!    Come on….Virgo’s do so love their secrets.   They won’t admit to any of them and in fact will blame others just in case their goose is cooked and their little secret will be revealed.   Well here comes the big Reveal Virgo!!! Oh yes.   You are human.    You make mistakes.   You fudge up now and again and things can get a little messy..on a grand scale.   But and it is a big butt…if you know what I mean lol.    You have the potential to be the great communicator and visionary but you don’t like the commitment of it.   Its all a bit real.   All a bit of well….putting you on the spot to make decisions.   And heaven forbid we would ask you to make one of those lol.  Gosh can you feel the sweat on your top lip as you read this.    It will ruin your make-up….and the image will be seen as real…..   This is the year of a new cycle of “doing” …not the theory of “doing” but actually “doing” and maybe just maybe you can.    In fact I would go so far to say you can blag it and get it done Virgo because you have this angelic side that is well so cute, quite frankly that people find hard to resist.   They sometimes find the rottweiler underneath if you get angry but try and keep that baby at bay and you will be in for heavenly times with a new person.   YOU!!!  Yeah Virgo go for it!!!!

LIBRA

Well hewow there wovely Libra…. you minx.   you….. You know you are a right royal pain in the ass at times when you can’t make your mind up but boy do you have the charm to sell sand to the Arabs (no offence to Arabs!)   But its all change on the life path front for Libra… and its because you lost interest darling.  Whatever you were doing it just didn’t float your boat anymore.   It was like “really”.   Whatever you were doing you were doing with good intention but whatever happened?  Don’t blame anyone or anything, but whatever brought changes to your life over the last seven years it was to move you into a new archetype of who you are.   A new You.   As I have said with the other astrological signs it is the great reinvention of self.   And you thought you knew You.   But you knew the girl/boy who liked to be liked.    Loved Love.     Wanted to be successful so as to prove others wrong.    Now you just want to be You.   And do you know what Libra, you are finally finding the balance!!!   The sign of the scales of justice is Libra and you are ruled by Venus the planet of love and harmony and you really want to say…..I actually like myself!!!!  I don’t need some of the people I was hanging out with.. nice and all they may be.  But if you needed to prove yourself or be there for them all the time…. it had to end.   Let them go and raise a glass.   And then go sit in the sun and toast those buns Libra because you are going to be busy.   Oh yea you say doing what… having a bloody good time!!! Love ya!!!!

SCORPIO

Oh my.. Scorpio kitten how are you?   Meeooow you feline fine are you?   Well Jupiter (planet of expansion and higher knowledge and wisdom) is retrograde in your sign.   As the week that saw Uranus change into Taurus, you are being pushed into the recesses of your heart and mind to ask yourself ….do I want this?   Am I really ok?   It is a theme of many of the signs to be honest but for you as you come into this new cycle you are looking back on the past seven years and saying…did that really happen!   How did I wind up here?  Don’t fret pet….its going to be awright as they say in Newcastle.   You are going to make it but boy do you make it hard on yourself.   You really are the one who will leave no stone unturned to get to the truth.   And sometimes …well maybe you have to leave a stone resting where it lays as what lies underneath is not for you to find….its someone else dead ant…(or aunt as the case may be lol…cut ties).   But no.  Give yourself a big pat on the back for being ballsy…whether you male or female.   Because when it comes to having balls Scorpio you have a pair the size of a boxers gloves!!  You really don’t feel the fear and do it anyway, you do it anyway despite the fear.    Where is all this leading to.   Well Beloved Scorpio, ancient one of the path of evolution, you are in the midst of great change and time is of the essence, sounds mystical lol.   Well I hope so because you have to start remembering the mystic in you and integrate him/her into daily life to access the hidden depths of your soul.   Its not a little thing.   Its a big one.  And yes you have a big one!! And yes… you can do this, we all bloody can.  But the pattern we were entrenched with was…but what if you are judged..or you do something wrong..what will people think!!!  Erase the pattern…decode the programming… get to the heart and you are there.   Love You!!!!

SAGITTARIUS

First I was alone, I was petrified, thinking I could never live without you by my side.  Then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong and I grew strong …..etc…etc… in the words of Gloria Gaynor.    Sagittarius what the fudge happened?   You were meant to get your act together and get the whole thing done before tea time.   And now you are behind and people are relying on you and thinking she aint going get this done..she isn’t all that we thought she was cracked up to be…OOOhhhh hang on one minute nay sayers…. Hold on to your hats and don’t you dare doubt a Sag.   The sage of the zodiac don’t do defeat.   They just don’t.   And if you want to test them….try having a row with one they will talk rings round you or just …well just leave you standing!   They are the deeply intuitive ones also.   They like to think they are not and will consult psychics and astrologers (aah you are welcome Sags) but their belief system relies on being given approval and with planet Jupiter as their ruler you would think they wouldn’t need it.   But in fact they need a lot of reassurance to make sure they are sure if you see what I mean.      Jupiter is a big planet and for Sagittarius everything is a big deal.   Oh yes baby.   You might think …it is only a little row or only a little upset but for Sag it will be a whole lot more.    Their integrity is high but their guilt tripping is even higher.    They feel guilty for feeling guilty bless their cotton socks.   Sag you gotta get the hell out of guiltsville and  head right into dontgive a fudgesville soon…very soon.   You are coming into a new cycle and yes if you want buy a bike.   You know you want to.  But you don’t have to do anything.   Have to and should needs to be banished from your vocabulary as it left you opened to a lot of people taking advantage…bless them.   Now you are kind of going through a time of awakening to “I don’t really fit in” and that is good!  Because Sag you were never meant to fit into the mould…you were meant to break it!!!   Go on …on yer bike!!!

CAPRICORN

Is Pluto really retrograde in Capricorn again!!  Are you having a bloody laugh.   Really…..oh Capricorn you are one hell of a trouper.    You are going into the past and pulling out all the weeds from a garden you once thought of as home….perhaps you are pulling out some old patterns and ways of living you thought were the “right” way and replacing the gaps with new seeds of hope.   Love.  Faith.   Joy..yes real joy not the bloody word people keep harping on about ..oh joy, yes wish you joy..love and light to ya baby.   Not to be cynical …well..maybe a little…..but Capricorns need proof.   Out and out proof that the faith they have shown will be rewarded in some way …and by the way whats the time line on that one dear…..You know you do because Capricorn baby you are practical and you have had to be the one who had a good head on your shoulders.    In other lives it was probably lobbed off….rolling down the river…Now you want to swim to shore with everything in tact.   You want to explore and discover and meet people who are waiting to meet you.   And in a funny way, and maybe you will admit it Capricorn, it is making you realise how much you love the people who have been part of your past and the cycle of your life you now leave behind.    You see that revelation that there is no one to blame, and no one to resent, brings you to the gateways of freedom you have found.   Beyond those gates is a new garden.   Lets call it Eden.   Go on…you know you want to ..and lets see who waits there for you.    Can you feel the excitement as you read that line?  Who waits there for you Capricorn.    Someone from long ago….not even in this life…who is not waiting but rather travelling in the same direction.    Love and ACTUAL JOY..TO YOU CAPRICORN!!!

AQUARIUS

Well what can I say….Aquarius…what needs to be said that you haven’t already thought over the last few weeks, months, years… Well if you haven’t said it, let me as a fellow Aquarian say it for you.   “LOVE AND LIGHT DEAR ONE BUT I AM NOT CLEARING YOUR STUFF…YOUR PAST, YOUR ANCESTORS OR ANY OF THE BAGGAGE YOU HAVE.    BE YOU A FRIEND, A PERSON IN THE QUEUE IN TESCO WHO STARTS TELLING THEIR LIFE STORY OR FAMILY MEMBER OR EX!! NOT BECAUSE I DON’T LIKE YOU BUT PRECISELY BECAUSE I LIKE/LOVE YOU AND KNOW THAT ITS SOMETHING YOU CAME HERE TO DO FOR YOURSELF AND I DO NOT ASK YOU TO CLEAR MINE!”  Whoa that feels a whole lot better Aquarius doesn’t it…”   Well it actually feels liberating doesn’t it!!   Hang on… do you ..do you feel as if a ten pound weight has been taken off the back of your neck… you should do.   Uranus enters Taurus…and as we have experienced the Taurus new moon this week theres a whole lot of Uranus going around.   And I for one have a bit of a pain in it….no pun intended..not lol.    Actually I have a pain in my arse!!!  Now there you go… its not a big one…well ….you can make your own mind up about the size lol. but the actual physical/emotional pain was a big one.    Aquarius you have realised you put up with so much because you are painted as the “thinking” sign of the zodiac.  Ruled by Uranus…and the logical one.   But if only people knew.    You have so much emotion in you as you are the water bearer…the air sign waiting to pour all of that knowledge and love in you out into the world.    It has been misused, by yourself maybe and experiences, but definitely by others.   You forgive …and ask for forgiveness.. but a little bit of you, the mystic in you that is Aquarius doesn’t forget.   Not for revenge darling, you are not that tacky.   No.  For future reference.   You know and you cannot not know Aquarius and the future is a whole lot brighter because that pain you felt for humanity ….and wanted to heal…belongs to the innocent heart of the child you are.    Go on….get going and start doing what you came here to do again!!!!

PISCES

Cold fish are yer…. I don’t think sooo…. You little codder you.   lol.  Pisces you are swimming about in a whole lot of muddy water maybe.   You need clarity.   But you steaming up those baby blues by hanging out with the fishes in the muddy water baby.  Stand alone for a while.   Be brave… You know you are!!! Neptune is the ruler of the Sea!!  You aren’t an employee of Captain Birdseye!!!! For God’s sake start believing again.   Start having faith in you and in a higher force that is clarity…. the ego brings us down some dirty tracks even when with the best will in the world we think its the way to go because people we admire are walking that path.      Be You..   Stop it… stop making excuses…look to the strong people you admire and thats ok, but look to you!!  If you want to find out more about what makes you tick ….what really gets you going because you need a little work on the motor Pisces.   The motor of emotion…. you have been through enough darling.   You need to start thinking “what the hell am I doing in this bloody yoga class with my leg wrapped round my head.” if you don’t actually feel like it.   Go have a gin and tonic and sit out on the patio, play some Leonard Cohen…. kick of de shoes, run your fingers through someones hair…make sure its actually hair…not something they bought Pisces…don’t let it get messy lol.  Lay the blanket on the ground….do you get my drift Pisces.   You are doing all the right things… but sometimes not for the right reasons.   Not that they bad.. but they aren’t you any more.   As I said earlier this is the era of Reinvention and you are changing your look, your view and yes whats been bottled up needs to be uncorked cos it aint going to keep, it aint getting any fresher baby!!!!   You have a gem of a heart ….let it shine my friend…don’t keep it under wraps so someone else isn’t offended.   This is a new cycle and its one you intend to do it as YOU!!!

Phew.  Thanks for hanging in there friends…  Bless your journey with love and with a whole lot of happiness, peace and yes, joy.    For the journey home is to YOU.

Love always

Caroline
