Apocalypse is a good thing!

Apocalypse, a revelation of what’s hidden, is predicted for this Friday when the Sun enters Capricorn at the Winter Solstice and the Mayan Calendar ends.

The Capricorn Sun acts as a trigger for the ongoing Uranus-Pluto square that has ignited an apocalyptic revolution--the fall of hierarchal structures and linear thinking that makes room for the birth of cooperating with compassion, honoring our intuition.  

Pluto was last in this astrological configuration in 1776!  Over two hundred years of independence, freedom, and justice for all?  Be curious.  Why can’t grown men and women honestly cooperate for the blatantly obvious needs of the people for peace?  

The stars are aligned for another pinnacle of revolutionary Uranus throwing lightning bolts at the locks on Pluto’s prison doors.  The ruler of the underworld insists on holding us under the surgeon's knife.  Either we excise hatred, heal our wounds, or we kill our very souls. 

An unusual astrological event, the Finger of God, is pointing out the profound blockage that resists breakthrough--the deeply held belief that we are unlovable.  When the Finger of God is activated, as it is right now, the choice before us magnifies, the dichotomies get bigger, the contrasts are in stark relief.  This is a gift.  It forces choice. 

Get on a soapbox, fire up your zeal, and tell it like it is.
The Force of enough already! is with you.
Here’s your horoscope for the week of December 16, 2012:

Aries ♈ (March 20-April 19)
You begin this eventful week with Venus, newly in your compatible fire sign Sagittarius, taking you for an adventurous ride with the great outdoorsman, Messenger Mercury. Your heart and hopes take a quantum leap, right into your most idealistic goals, but you’re gonna need to share the lead with a partner (apocalyptic for you?).  Venus stokes your passion on the way to forming a harmonic convergence with the god of lightning (in your sign) this Wednesday (1:38 PM, PST).  Then the Moon fires up in Aries and wakes you with “aha’s.” It’s a surprising resurgence of your interest in religious and spiritual matters, and a Winter Solstice with fireworks.  

Taurus ♉ (April 20-May 20)
The goddess of love is sharing a cab with Messenger Mercury and both are hurrying to the stock exchange before closing!  Here is your happy solution.  Just don’t tense up!
Rushing spontaneously (I know it’s not your style, but afterall this is an apocalypse!) after a beautiful dream may be very inviting this Thursday when the goddess of love gets her emotional groove on with an impetuous Moon in Aries.  For goodness sake do it.  Out of your comfortable shell dear Taurus!  Moon in your sign Saturday morning (10:25 AM, PST) makes an easy spiritual alignment with your dreamy, compassionate self.  Hint, hint.

Gemini ♊ (May 21-June 20)
Venus is traveling with winged Cupid (Messenger Mercury) and together they are putting your consideration of others on stage.  Personal relationships need your public relations skills and a loving dose of manners.  Thursday is truly a day of epiphanies with the Aries Moon joining hands with lightning bolt Uranus just after breakfast (8:34 AM, PST).  Date Night has some boundless pleasures and open hearts.  Venus is face to face with Jovial Jupiter in your sign, and the only danger with this couple is going too far!  (This also means leave your credit cards at home if shopping!)

Cancer ♋ (June 21-July 21)
Mercury in Sagittarius is farsighted and intellectually curious.  You have an inquiring mind that wants to ask, “what’s with the friggin’ self-interested bickering that is stalemating my progress?  For you this is a rare instance of impatience with the status quo.  On the Winter Solstice, the major line up of ambitious Capricorn planets support a leap forward in your partnerships.  It’s the loving cooperation you’ll give this week that will make relationships develop into something more, as long as you use your intuition instead of past experience.  Sensitive as it is for you, showing the vulnerable side of how you really feel is your apocalypse.

Leo ♌ (July 22-August 22)
Venus in the straight arrow fire sign of Sagittarius loads your creativity with prophetic flashes of ideas.  Hang out with your favorite music.  Moon wakes up your spontaneity midweek.  The Solstice brings a remarkable explosion of communications and breakthroughs in your talents and partnerships.  Surprises that open up your heart are your apocalypse.  Your solution to this week’s challenges is found in your love of life, and an innate ability to walk on the sunny side.  

Virgo ♍ (August 23-September 22)
A vulnerable sensitivity in your heart is pierced by the arrows of straightforward, no nonsense, truth.  But the recent discomforts have big rewards, like lifting your spirits and your friendships to beautiful new heights, especially within your family.  A shaky uncertainty between hope and the harsh truths of reality put you on edgy emotional turf by the end of this week.  Let go.  Spontaneous (as in unplanned!) expressions of your love are your happy way through these times.

Libra ♎ (September 23-October 22)
Your muse, Venus, is traveling with winged Cupid (Messenger Mercury) and together they are forming the solution to this week’s challenges.  Namely, intellectually harmonious ideas carried on the sweet words that others will welcome.  Your emotions will be so fired up by Thursday that a pioneering restlessness pushes you into a breakthrough.  Epiphanies rain down on you! A pushmepullyou conflict is set up by an optimistic Jupiter’s need to expand and a stodgy Saturn’s rigid contractions.  For goodness sake, side with Jupiter!

Scorpio ♏  (October 23-November 21)
Moon relaxes into the softness of Pisces compassion as you being this eventful week.  Leave your worries at the doorstep and dream a little dream of hearts joined in sympathy.  Venus shores up your optimism with added wealth and comforts.  You’ve felt the duel between rebelliousness versus commitments happening all around you, particularly since July 18th, and now it is happening inside you.  Are you willing to reveal the naked truth?  It’s the only way to break open the delusions of evil, and reveal the truth of your goodness.  

Sagittarius ♐ (November 22-December 20)
Messenger Mercury in optimistic Sagittarius opposes Jovial Jupiter in curious Gemini at 11:22 AM, PST, on Monday.  Big ideas, big headlines.  Limits are shot down in favor of expanded horizons and fresh perspectives.  Rushing headlong into romance may be unavoidable this Thursday when the goddess of love gets her emotional groove on with an impetuous Moon in Aries (10:40 AM, PST).  True love will change everything.

Capricorn ♑ (December 21-January 19)
You’re capable of prophetic insight through your positive attitudes and straightforward honesty.  Oppressive abuse of power seems to be all around you, but you step up as a leader who respects the rules of conduct and gains recognition, albeit behind the scenes. Heads up.  Your Capricorn Sun is inching toward a showdown with the god of lighting on Christmas Day, and then makes a daring alliance with the lord of the underworld on Sunday, December 30th.  A sudden event or surprise reveals your metamorphosis, even though your wings haven’t dried and you’re not sure who you are.  

Aquarius ♒ (January 20-February 17)
As a leader of freedom and equality, your kindness warms the hearts of friends and melts the public opposition to your hopes.  The key to resolving escalating tensions is to get out your soapbox and rally your troops. Say what you really think, no matter how unpopular.  Your magnanimous spirit of unconditional love will carry you.  Jump on Jupiter’s positive bandwagon, and watch what you wish for!  You’ll get it.  

Pisces ♓  (February 18-March 19)
Venus in Sagittarius gets into a tense duel with your Neptune in Pisces (10:23 AM, PST, Sunday).  The goddess of love wants your artistic ideals to be brought into practical use for your career.  Recognition for your talents comes this week.  But the really big show begins Thursday evening around 7:35 when giant Jupiter runs into a challenging contest with the unmasking Darth Vader, Pluto in Capricorn.  This is like trying to stay positive and optimistic while being pulled deeper and deeper into a dark cave!  Don’t worry.  Your beautifully true and innocent self is there.
