Theme: Happy Birthday Capricorns! 

Accountability is the theme today. One of the magic ingredients that helps with accountability is good relationships with others. The other is self-honesty. Accountability is also an antidote to dealing with emotional difficulties, in yourself or others. Rash emotion and hastiness is in the air so try and step back from communications that can trigger more difficulties than originally created. As Shantideva communicated: ‘The renunciation of doing harm is the perfection of discipline.’

Theme: What goes around comes around

Saturn the planet of law and order, cause and effect and working within limitations has entered its home sign of Capricorn for two and a half years. All Sagittarians can breathe a sigh of relief as it has moved out of their sign. Saturn in Capricorn  offers opportunities for restructuring and revealing systems that are not working. Re-evaluation is the first step in re-structuring. On another front expect some emotional upheaval today which could be compounded by mis-understandings.  If your unsure how to respond Press the ‘pause’ button today. It could be a low energy time. Tomorrow is a new day if you don’t die in your sleep. (That’s a joke).

Theme: Emotional secrets revealed

It’s a potent day for investigation and research. – and self-inquiry into the habitual patterns that bind us. Relationships can be particularly refreshingly unpredictable at present, rather than upsetting. The theme of creating sacred spaces continues.

Growth and comfort do not coexist.” Virginia Rometty, CEO, IBM

The new Moon brings fresh energy for start-up projects. You don’t have to be from Silicon Valley to be a start-up! Just a word of caution.

Theme: The pros and cons of idealism

It’s a good day to socialize and engage your gregarious side, entertain at home and re-design your living room. But watch out for over-indulgence and believing in the sole integrity of your viewpoint.  As Jampal’s English teacher said ‘A cynic is actually a disillusioned idealist.‘ So allow space for shared conversation that explores other points of view. You will be rewarded if you put some effort into a  spiritual endeavor today.

Theme: May the Force be with you

Today high energy continues  with 5 planets in  the fire sign of Sagittarius including the Moon.  It’s kind of like a Super Hero time except the Super Hero is you. Every action has a consequence. How can you make a difference today? It’s a great outdoors day. Breathe in. Breathe out! It’s also a time for self-education and helping others. It goes without saying that mindful speech is a virtue but you may find that challenging today. Beware! It could be a Blooper day.

Theme: Reason for optimism and caution

Life moves in cycles. This week there is room for optimism.It doesn’t mean there won’t be challenges. However, today is a day you can believe in the power of good ideals that create a better world for us all. The Moon has been Void of course for almost 24 hours which means people are not in sync emotionally with one another. It concludes at 8pm EST in the USA but continues on into the next day in Asia/Australia mid-day. Don’t sign any contracts today but rather, complete tasks. As Bugs Bunny said, ‘Well, it’s 5 o’clock somewhere.’

The Buddha’s parting words were ‘Hold fast to the truth as a lamp that shines in the darkness. Seek salvation in the truth alone.’

Theme: Finding sacred spaces

It’s a day you can create a good space for spiritual practice. Where is the hearth of your practice that keeps you grounded? Is it at home or elsewhere. It can be in nature or another special place. It’s a time when your reality is more subjective as Mercury is dwarfed by the rays of the Sun. Today is an opportunity to delve within. Beware of tendencies for manipulation. ‘Each place is the right place–the place where I am now can be a sacred place.’ Ravi Ravindra
