Help from the lone ranger, Saturn

You’re on a celestial balance beam that requires watching your step, but you can’t get where you must go without looking up.  You’re called to vigilance in your spiritual practice, a steady perseverance in the face of obstacles, and dedication to fulfilling that one unique Calling that is your healing mission.

And you’re getting some big time help!

“Happy dreams come true, not because they’re dreams, but because they’re happy.”  

A Course In Miracles

A major turning point occurs this week, when two powerful forces join together to push your river in the right direction; the stern taskmaster Saturn who insists on responsible use of resources, and visionary Neptune who opens the doors of compassion and peace. This is the second of three meetings between these unusual companions; the first was October 10, 2012, and the last will be July 19th.

A shorter but deeply felt cut into the psyche comes from Venus’ opposition to Pluto this Tuesday.  Passions are intense, sexual desires inflamed by unconscious compulsions.  Venus can also unearth deeply buried treasures that were hidden away in secrets.  Either way, expect to be transformed by the experience.

Here’s your horoscope for the week of June 9-15, 2013:

(★ Astrology Wonks see bottom of page)

Aries ♈ (March 20-April 19)

You’re not living in Disneyworld, but a little fairy dust from Tinker Bell is helping you lift your imagination to a wider horizon this week.  Add some patience, and you’ll see the threads of realistic common sense are woven through your daydreams. Monday is always the most moody day of the week since it’s “ruled” by the Moon, but this Monday is a high water mark for volatile emotions. You want to feel comfortable and at home in your environment but circumstances disrupt the status quo and force you to change directions.

Taurus ♉ (April 20-May 20)

As you summon your courage and speak your truth this week, friends and family will turn in surprise; “you’re absolutely psychic!”  Still, you’ll want to start slowly.  In fact, if you’re lucky enough to be able to stay home in your PJ’s Monday, you’ll be a step ahead of the emotional turmoil. The prime influence this week is the strong sense of justice and responsibility that you want in all your relationships. Your friendships have strong spiritual connections in which you extend your generosity and guidance.  

Gemini ♊ (May 21-June 20)

The tone of the week is set by a sweet Sunday, meant for visioning and creating affirmations for your wildest dreams to come true.  Then, get out of your easy chair and get light on your feet for some fancy dodging and weaving. Your emotions are all over the map, beginning this moody Monday.  Your job and career are the arena for the heights of achievement from seeing your dreams come true, or the scene of confusion created from behind the scenes deals. Clarity comes from following your intuitive hunches. Facts may be unreliable.

Cancer ♋ (June 21-July 21)

The week begins with an intuitive Moon in Cancer bringing you the comforts of knowing that your hopes and wishes are not just imaginary mental toys.  And your strength gathers more muscle when this Cancer Moon looks straight into the eyes of fear this Monday.  Unflinching.  Clear-seeing and stability, in the midst of enormous revolutionary changes, are the gifts you give and receive.  Help and healing land at your doorstep.  Take notice.  Let yourself be led for a change!

Leo ♌ (July 22-August 22)

If you’re not taking this Sunday as a day of rest, you’re missing the home-sweet-home boat that will give you the needed grounding for this week.  The discomfort at the beginning of the week can stir you to look more closely at how you really feel, your deepest desires, and not take those things you rely on for stability and security for granted.  Tuesday is a major turning point, when you’ll be called to the manual labor of setting your ideals into bricks and mortar.  But you’ll have the help of the Leo Moon which fires up your imagination and drive.   

Virgo ♍ (August 23-September 22)

Throughout this week you’ll experience flashes of imagination that are mental bookmarks for raising the bar on your goals;  don’t be afraid to ask for what you truly want.  Monday’s Cancer Moon loses her characteristic stability, and your emotions take a roller coaster ride from mistrust and missed appointments to sudden emotional surprises that turn you in a new, freer direction; even one you don’t think you want!  

Libra ♎ (September 23-October 22)

Meditate on drawing strength from your roots, your childhood experience.  No matter how your ego judges it, know that you were given just the right parents to spur you onto your mission this life.  Expect a moody start to the week.  In fact, by Monday evening you’ll be wishing you’d stayed at home in your PJ’s!  You can get more done working by yourself than in a group.  Your work is inspired, and you've organized your resources; both are contributing to putting yourself out on center stage. This is how you'll know you're loved.

Scorpio ♏  (October 23-November 21)

The strong mediumistic qualities of your imagination would ordinarily lead you into useless daydreams, however this week your visions are grounded in reality by your careful planning.  Early in the week, emotional volatility shakes your moods and puts your heartbeat on rapid alert.  You can sense the lightning in the thunder.  Don’t run for cover.  Face the fear head on.  It’s just a squeaking little mouse!

Sagittarius ♐ (November 22-December 20)

Your keen imagination is linked to Venus this week, giving your artistic talents some willpower and umph!  Feel your way.  If you have plans for this Monday, expect them to change. You can gather strength from your family roots, and find your spiritual center there.  With Saturn in your 12th solar house, he’s clearing the decks of anything that’s not useful.  Don’t cling to anyone or anything that is leaving your life.  You’ll be better off without it.  

Capricorn ♑ (December 21-January 19)

Prayers are particularly powerful this Sunday with visionary Neptune in harmonious aspect to the nurturing Cancer Moon.  Feed your dreams.  The good news is that any emotional rut you’re stuck in will definitely shift, giving you an escape hatch.  Saturn (the “ruler” of Capricorn) rarely relaxes into dreaming, except under the current influence of visionary Neptune.  Your taskmaster is softened by your compassionate visions of understanding one another--communicating heart to heart.

Aquarius ♒ (January 20-February 17)

An afternoon nap this Sunday is perfect for opening up your daydreams to some imaginative yet practical planning.  Monday is emotionally uneasy when the Moon in sensitive Cancer has her apple cart upturned by surprises.  This shakes your trust and rattles the firm roots you count on for stability. You may have heavy responsibilities right now, but your spiritual resources are sprouting new limbs.  Did you know that a starfish who loses a limb can not only grow a new one, she can grow two!

Pisces ♓  (February 18-March 19)

Visions of sugar plums come out dancing in the warm hints of summer provided by this Sunday’s Cancer Moon in sweet harmony with poetic and compassionate Neptune in Pisces.  But grab a lightning rod just in case, because your sensitivities are on high alert as the week appears to be loaded with uncharacteristically sudden surprises.  You are an invincible spirit walker who’s seen a great deal of the other side, so you know nothing can hurt you without your consent.

✶ Astrology Wonks

Sunday is sweet with the Cancer Moon (9:16 AM, PDT) snuggling up with Neptune Sunday evening for some lovely, relaxing dreamtime;  then she falls in harmonious step with Saturn, setting off the Saturn/Neptune trine that’s coming Tuesday.

Monday the Cancer Moon is extremely volatile and moody.  Nothing will go as planned with Moon opposition Pluto at 7:12 AM, PDT, then square Uranus 9:33 AM, PDT, then conjunct Mercury at 2:15 PM, PDT, and finally in stress aspect to Saturn.  

Saturn trined Neptune on October 10, 2012 (Saturn 0° Scorpio trine Neptune at 0°Pisces) and this occurs twice more: This week on Tuesday (Saturn 5° Scorpio trine Neptune at 5°Pisces) and July 19th 2013 (Saturn 4° Scorpio trine Neptune at 4°Pisces).
