FEBRUARY/MARCH 2010

ARIES (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
The harder you try to drive yourself outwardly, the more it becomes obvious that the real journey is an inner one. The moment you really know your power, you will be nobody’s slave and nobody’s master. Reside comfortably in the light shining in your heart.

TAURUS (Apr 21 – May 20)
Contentment will come from living your desire with awareness, not by putting it aside for another day. Enter the fire of wanting. Be prepared for a whole heap of your precious ideas to go up in smoke. Experience is a mighty teacher, well worth wrestling with.

GEMINI (May 21 – June 21)
The fact that you are slow off the starting blocks can be put down to your reluctance to repeat the past. Curling up in a safe place and neglecting to enter the adventure is not an option. Home is to be found where you least expect it – right in the belly of enterprise.

CANCER (June 22 – Jul 22)
As you slowly disentangle yourself from the inhibiting web of the distant past, so you feel lighter and more open to the beauty right before your eyes. The real you is as light as a feather. The unreal you is a dead weight. Rise high, doing and being what you love.

LEO (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
Back off from anything that leads you away from yourself. Strength is presently coming from planting the flag of attention firmly in the ground of your own heart. As you get to know what is on the inside, so slowly and unselfconsciously, essence starts to radiate.

VIRGO (Aug 23 – Sept 22)
From the firmest, most well-honed plans, comes the wildest and most surprising adventure. Set your trajectory in the most sensible direction for sure – but know well that you could end up in an entirely different paddock than planned. Do it all with a wry smile.

LIBRA (Sept 23 – Oct 23)
It is only from an experience of total emptiness, that life’s fullness can fully state its case. Come bravely back to the you that is naked, real and unadorned. You will soon find the bells, whistles, colored feathers and exuberant mystery of truth, hiding away there.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 – Nov 21)
As much as you appreciate the extra- ordinariness of ordinariness, intensity is even better. When life heats up, that’s when all that is magical begins to become available. In the pleasurable peak that comes whenever you are wholly engaged, comes spirit and soul.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
The ground beneath your feet has shifted. You are now in a realm of longing that is designed to give new depth. Objects of longing may prove to be illusory – but the longing itself will prove to be precious beyond measure. Ride well all the currents in your heart.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
To choose the path that is going to transform you, the one that is really going to give you a taste of what it means to be alive, is not going to be comfortable. When the rocky bits come, pull out the champagne and celebrate. Hope consciously - and for more.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
Buddha called himself a surgeon not a philosopher. Life is healing you. It isn’t providing you with comfortable intellectual solutions. Be clear about the path you are on. Everything that comes your way is a blessing. There is no need to understand - just be willing.

PISCES (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Openings come your way in unexpected fashion. Life isn’t just about spearing ahead like an arrow of intent. It is also about relaxing, receiving and being available to expansion that you simply didn’t see coming. Give yourself to that which is beyond imagination.
