GREEN LIGHT Striving doesn't always result in arriving. There are plenty of times when one sets out to achieve a goal and things just don't pan out. Perhaps you launched too early, waited too long, or support for what you wanted to do came too late. Success is part timing, part circumstances, and [...]
URANUS OUT OF RETROGRADE Uranus, the planet of revolution and change, comes out of retrograde on January 27th. After weeks of backsliding, you will feel like you're finally moving with the current of events rather than against it. Uranus's job in Astrology is to break down the things that aren't working – like [...]
WELCOME TO THE NEW AGE An extraordinary astrological event will be taking place on January 20th.

GOOD-BYE TO ALL THAT The wonderful thing about parting ways with something (or someone) that you should have said good-bye to long ago is the tremendous relief that comes rushing in. You thought you were going to be heartbroken – or at least depressed – but evidently your psyche has been champing at [...]
MERCURY RETROGRADE IN CAPRICORN Mercury, the planet of shopkeepers, becomes the planet of shoplifters (metaphorically speaking at least) when it reverses direction in the sky.
