Theme: Finding your moral compass

You need to respond to situations swiftly and unexpectedly today. Emotional intensity, combined with a strong desire to act habitually, provide an opportunity to step outside your patterns and find new, more thoughtful ways for dealing with challenges. Refining your communication leads to better relationship outcomes. Anything is possible when you have inner peace.~Shifu in Kung Fu Panda

Theme: Levels of insight

Today you will have mental flashes of insight, but when it comes to relationships you are on less stable ground. Motivations of others are more hidden and nebulous. It’s a good time to contemplate your achievements so far, and work on goals, especially practical ones. With the Sun in Capricorn there is energy to accomplish. When you reach the top of the mountain, keep climbing.~Zen Koan

Theme: Balance and resources

There is more emotional balance today, more optimism and less angst. Giving and receiving comes more easily. Challenges remain around how power is handled. Inwardly this can manifest as inner tension and conflicting positions. Key people, can inspire you to branch out. If we believe that mind is continuous, our love for others becomes continuous.~Thinley Norbu Rinpoche

Theme: Transformation or Disagreements

Will we be able to achieve transformational results? Or will we simply have disagreements and power struggles? If we live up to our ethics and tie up all loose ends, we have the best chance at the former. It is a transparent time, and new approaches to old problems will bear fruit. For a few days we have an unusual ability to communicate empathetically with others. Intellectual curiosity, and lively conversation are favored for a couple of days. The way to change others’ minds is with affection, not anger. ~H H the Dalai Lama

Theme: Passion and Curiosity

In the first half of the day we are passionate and want to get to the bottom of the issues we are facing. Later, the Moon moves into Gemini and we are curious and talkative. We continue to look for excitement and novel ways of doing things. This is a good time for new beginnings. If we find ourselves in power struggles, use this situation as an opportunity to gain insight into ourselves. The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled. ~Plutarch

Theme: New Discoveries

For the next several days we are able to make new discoveries about ourselves and the world around us. Studying science, astrology, and the occult are favored. This is not the time for patient, detailed work. With the Moon in Taurus for two more days this is an emotionally stable time, and one for enjoying comforts. Later in the day is the time for prayer, meditation and compassionate activity. The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others. ~Mahatma Gandhi

Theme: Inner Harmony

There is a nice flow between our emotions and our sense of purpose today. We are both ambitious and inclined to enjoy comforts. Yet mentally we are looking for excitement, and may be rash and impulsive in the second half of the day. There is still the desire to transform the world around us. Beware of others who abandon ethics to try to get what they want. Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody’s going to know whether you did it or not. ~Oprah Winfrey

Today the moon is void of course until 5:57 am EDT USA. If you are in another country check what that means for you time-wise. It’s best to avoid making major decisions or sign contracts during this time.

Theme: Battle weary

Tension causes energy levels to fluctuate. It is timely to look at what inner foes you are fighting. There is a flashpoint today: count to five! Mental acuity is strong today. Peace is hard fought and hard won. There is strong determination over the next month to accomplish. Each step may seem to take forever, but no matter how uninspired you feel, continue to follow your practice schedule precisely and consistently.~Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche
