Hidden Secret Destiny

Hi Meghan,

This personal Astrology reading provides fascinating insight into your Hidden Secret Destiny.

It combines your Ascendant, often known as your Rising Sign, and the placements of the Sun and Moon at the exact moment you were born. This information can be remarkably accurate in revealing how you appear to others, your life's purpose and the "inner" you.

It's important to remember that you have a choice about what develops in your world. If you want to be happier, then you can be, regardless of what occurs in the cosmos. However, your Hidden Secret Destiny reading offers insight into your unique characteristics and can help you understand the part the heavens play in the unfolding story of your life.

To the right of each pair of 'aspect' symbols is a group of five stars. The darker the stars, the more powerful and significant the meaning of that aspect is to you.

We wish you a wonderful future!

Your Transit Calendar

Your Appearance, Personality & Physical Characteristics

Think about all the qualities that make you the unique person you are. Your appearance, personality, ambitions, and priorities are conveyed in many ways to others, along with your ego, energy, passions, and deepest desires. Discover more about what you express naturally, your exterior persona and the impression you make on the world.

Strong and Caring

Cancer rising

You're acutely aware of your needs, and intuitively know what others need at any time, too. This makes forming friendships and those that lead to something deeper or more intimate easy. By being your authentic and transparent self, you gain trust and admiration that enhances your ability to form deep and long-lasting connections.
You can be prone to being too self-protective at times, especially if you feel threatened or uncomfortable in unfamiliar surroundings. Self-protectiveness can take the form of withdrawal or shyness, but your strong, caring disposition soon draws others toward you and helps any feelings of defensiveness to disappear.
You put a strong emphasis on relationships and seek structure and security in a partner. That's why you're drawn toward people who display strength, financial and emotional stability, and a sense of adventurousness.

Your emotions are transparent, even if you believe you're doing a convincing job of concealing them. You possess an innate desire to be needed and a deep-rooted need to take care of or nurture others. As long as you're happy tending to others' needs and they're happy for you to do so, the recipients of your kind and compassionate actions are rarely put off by your ever-changing moods.

Your Ascendant Aspects

Unafraid of Change

'Close One'

Uranus Trines Ascendant

You're always receptive to opportunities to relate to others in new ways and probably don't have to look hard for such opportunities to do so. You actively seek new friendships, relationships, and group activities and, at times, circumstances beyond your control can put you in situations where you're exposed to strange, unusual or eccentric people, which you thoroughly enjoy.

You need freedom to express your uniqueness and tend to gravitate toward similar or like-minded individuals. You're unafraid to introduce changes to your world if you feel bored or uninspired, and spontaneous travel could help you to experience different views of the world.

Perceived Forcefulness

'Close One'

Pluto Squares Ascendant

Your ambition and desire to achieve personal recognition are probably very strong, but both can create opposition from others, especially if they feel threatened in any way by your forceful attitude. In truth, you're probably not forceful or aggressive, or at least not in ways you're perceived to be.

You enjoy taking the initiative and see no need to reassess plans that have been reassessed umpteen times already. Therefore, you don't tolerate interference or apathy from others, and this can be projected unintentionally aggressively You're prone to being obsessive and lacking moderation in your efforts, with an all-or-nothing approach to whatever you're determined to make happen.

As long as you're willing to boost your tolerance levels toward others and, where appropriate. Enter into the spirit of collaboration in the right ways; you'll have no problems gaining the support you need.

Your life's purpose, the real 'you' and how you project yourself to the world.

Your Sun Sign defines your individuality. It rules your will, pride, determination, health and vitality, recognition and sense of purpose. It governs how you see yourself, your self-esteem - and how others view you.

Passion

Sun in Leo

The Zodiac sign for Leo is, of course, a Lion. Others need only look closely at a wild or domesticated feline to gain a better understanding of you.

Cats crave attention. They love to be admired. Cats love hierarchy. They come and go as they please. They are also very protective and territorial. The above probably describes you in many ways.

You have an amazing ability to radiate warmth and have a sunny disposition that makes you excellent company in any environment. You're probably also very headstrong, want things done your way, and will keep on and on until you get your way.

You're passionate in every sense of the word. You don't hold back if there's a chance to give but also like to receive gifts. It's probably your endless confidence which attracts others to you, and you're often keen to ensure the world knows how confident and proud you are.

It is your confidence and pride which might have caused you to be accused of arrogance or vanity in the past. In truth, you're a generous, lively person with a unique ability to see the fun or funny side of just about any situation.

1st

Model Leader

Sun in the 1st House

Everyone has their ideas about what they look for in a leader, and you're likely to tick all the essential boxes. Like most effective leaders, you do so by example, and your strong willpower combined with equally strong self-assurance help your actions to influence how others see you in ways words cannot.
You also possess strong courageous and competitive qualities and excel at applying these to challenges that you probably view as opportunities, not obstacles. To you, opportunities exist to be seized, not assessed from umpteen angles and allowed to slip through your fingers.
Your innate need to prove yourself can cause you to be overbearing at times, but nobody doubts how passionately you pursue what inspires or motivates you.

Your Sun Aspects

Knowledge Sharing

Sun Conjuncts Mercury

Superficial 'chitchat' doesn't interest you. If you're going to involve yourself in a discussion or communicate in any way, then there has to be a clear and very interesting purpose to doing so.

To you, communication must involve sharing ideas and leaving an exchange feeling enlightened or wiser. Your naturally curious nature is integral to you constantly finding, absorbing, processing, storing and conveying information.

That might be a reason why you're probably a better talker than listener. However, few people will ever doubt the validity and intrigue that surrounds what you discover and the pride with which you share it.

Independent Achiever

'Close One'

Sun Trines Midheaven

Your confidence in your abilities is unquestionable. You are exceptionally 'in tune' with who you are, what you're capable of and your life's direction. You set very high expectations and probably have an impressive track record of achieving or exceeding them.

You're undaunted by competition. If anything, a competitor in your midst only spurs you on to increase your efforts and overtake them by doing so. The success you achieve is, and always will be, done 'your way.' You learned long ago that, with the right level of effort applied, rewards are assured.

The 'Inner You' Revealed

Your inner sensitivities and how you react emotionally to situations.

Constantly Seeking Balance

Moon in Libra

One of several noticeable traits you possess is uncertainty. However, you knew that anyway because you must know better than anyone else what it's like to have such a wide variation of emotions.

You feel happy one minute, sad the next, anxious the next day, and confident the day after. Although every human experiences such shifts in how they feel, your emotions are up and down like a proverbial yo-yo and if they are not up and down in a happy/depressed kind of way, then they're moving side to side indecisively.

It is probably your straightforwardness that makes you so appealing to others. Not so much that you 'call a spade a spade,' but because you have little to hide. Anyone can see clearly which emotion you're preoccupied with by looking at you.

This is reinforced further by your unique ability to change your personality to suit whoever you're with. It is not a facade. You know how to say what people want to hear, give what you know they need and show them what they want to see. This skill makes you so appealing to others, too.

However, it does have drawbacks, which causes your bubble to burst from time to time when you leave people looking at each other, wondering why you're acting like a very different person to one they were with yesterday. It doesn't take others long to realize that's precisely how you work, either. Anyone who sees you acting like a clown yet was enjoying the company of a sensitive and serious person the previous day soon recognizes how you work so hard to make people relaxed and comfortable around you.

Indecisiveness will always be a part of your personality. You might struggle with an urge to be constantly weighing up everything in life. This does not necessarily mean you've made it your mission to ensure everyone and everything does what is right, good and just. Instead, you prefer to concentrate on how you can redress the balance regarding what you consider to be unfair in your life - and if that means someone else must lose for a change, then that's fair as far as you're concerned!

Alternative Moon Sign?

Your Moon falls near the cusp of the preceding sign, so if your birth time is an hour or so earlier than you have given, you could have Virgo Moon.

Practical & Critical

Moon in Virgo

Whereas you might appear confident and optimistic in many ways, you could find your enthusiasm and motivation dips on a regular basis.

That doesn't mean you go through life without ever achieving anything, far from it! The airs of wisdom and responsibility you exude make you a prime target for some of the most prominent positions any organization has to offer. However, an underlying flaw in an otherwise perfect personality involves you doubting your abilities, your contribution and being extremely self-critical.

You are such an easy person to get along with, and many will undoubtedly regard you as one of the most intelligent, funny, sexy, talented and sensual people they know. It is therefore ironic that you have such an amazing ability to make others laugh yet you find it so difficult to laugh at yourself.

You prefer to live in a world where everything is sensible and organized. You're able to see the quirky and funny side of life but remain convinced that succumbing to such things causes you to let down a 'psychological guard.' You believe this makes you vulnerable to receiving criticism you believe to be justified from others and this vicious circle continues.

The secret to living the fulfilled and contented life you know is available to you is to learn to give more and judge less. Learn to say phrases like 'if that happens, then so what?' If you're able to add some large helpings of relaxation to the recipe, then all the better!

3rd

Crystal Clear Communication

Moon in the 3rd House

To you, the world is a place full of a vast amount of information waiting to be discovered and absorbed. This might come easier to you than it does to others because of your powerful intuition that you apply to observing and learning.
However, your strong desire to process information – or overthink - can mean you give your mind too much to process at times. This can make you prone to worrying and becomes more complicated when you see immediate solutions to others' problems and wonder why they can't see what you see.
However, this can be helpful if it offers an outlet for you to express with crystal clarity what you feel or think to them. Some might say you do this too often or strongly, but the emphasis you put on constant, open communication ensures your friendships are relationships are 'above board' and rock solid.

Your Moon Aspects

Dynamic Speaker and Listener

'Close One'

Moon Sextiles Mercury

You might be an opinionated so-and-so, but someone so outgoing and engaging is bound to have a diverse collection of strong viewpoints. You possess a powerful intuition that helps you form strong and, at times, instant emotional connections with others. You have a dynamic way with words and are an excellent communicator.

Your curiosity and elephantine memory make you a quick learner and able to hold engaging conversations on practically any topic! Your willingness to openly share feelings encourages others to do the same with you, especially once you prove your ability to listen to and understand them.

Powerfully Passionate

Moon Squares Mars

You possess an insatiable need to achieve your desires and have a strong emotional attachment to whatever you want or need. This is helpful with providing dynamism and fighting spirit to succeed but can also make you obstinate and short-tempered at times.

Because you possess a powerfully passionate nature, you can tend to overreact or unleash anger in ways you regret later. However, as far as you're concerned, feelings need to be released, not bottled up.

You believe that, if you're going to express yourself, then it's essential to do so passionately and in ways that leave nobody in any doubt about what you think or feel. Your emotional flair and dramatic displays can be released constructively, and in ways others find extremely sensual or downright sexy!

Upbeat and Generous

'Close One'

Moon Conjuncts Jupiter

Your upbeat and generous nature encourages you always to see what's positive in any seemingly negative situation. It might be your optimism and positive attitude that has attracted so many positive life experiences so far and will help you attract more during your lifetime.

You can, at times, be too generous toward or accepting of others because not everyone is as genuine and honest as you. However, being so open-minded, non-judgmental and possessing such strong nurturing and maternal qualities makes everyone in your world feel supported and nourished.

Revealing Vulnerability

'Close One'

Moon Conjuncts Saturn

Your emotional life might have had its share of hardship, sadness or guilt. This might have been difficult if either parent, especially your mother, was a negative influence when you were young.

Creating emotional security is important because of your fervent desire to feel needed and valued. Your attitudes and responses to relationships might be objective and unemotional. Your keenness to be strict with yourself often overspills into your close connections.

Once you overcome shyness and your occasional lack of self-respect, you can maintain long-term, intimate relationships. Revealing your vulnerable side can turn detachment into closeness, and depression into contentment.

Home Comfort

Moon Opposes Midheaven

Home is definitely where your heart is. Your priorities involve balancing time spent alone with surrounding yourself with people who offer emotional support, such as family members and loved ones.

You need a familiar and comfortable domestic environment, which might explain why outsiders are often invited to come to you, rather than you going to them. Your home offers an ideal and necessary base to immerse yourself in a quiet world of contemplation, remove yourself from the hectic pace of life and recharge your physical and emotional batteries.

Emotional Support

Moon Sextiles North Node

Your emotional connection with others is extremely supportive. You don't simply take a passing interest in what's important to those closest to you; you want to be integral to helping others achieve their goals and move in the right direction in their life.

You probably have knowledge and experience that you can draw upon to make this possible, too. You connect intuitively with the priorities of loved ones or close companions, and this ensures a strong bond of friendship exists in both platonic and intimate connections.

Hidden Secret Destiny Forecast

Your personal Hidden Secret Destiny for twelve months provides unique and detailed insight into long-term astrological influences affecting your hidden, secret connections. A short-term monthly summary is also provided regarding what you can expect - and prepare for.

You'll notice this document outlines various 'trends' influencing and shaping your Hidden Secret Destiny over varying periods of time. 'Longer-term trends' highlight 'behind the scenes' activity and where you'll likely need to accept gradual change.

Being able to monitor cosmic support available to you will help you to understand better your attitude toward your Hidden Secret Destiny. This can be invaluable in helping you to form - or strengthen – connections in ways you've only dreamed of.

Emerging or Overstating Trends

Jupiter trends from 8th November 2022 to 7th November 2023

January 18th to 30th 2023

Give them some space

Transiting Jupiter Opposes your natal Moon

We're told from a young age that we should give one hundred per cent to all we do. Do we ever feel that we are giving such commitment to anything – or anyone? Regardless of how much effort we believe we're investing, there is, if we're honest with ourselves, some room for improvement.

But sometimes, it is possible to try too hard. We become so focused on making effort that we forget when the time to stand back and assess results. Now is such a time.

You might be at risk of giving too much where a certain affair of the heart is concerned. Give someone a bit of breathing space. It will do you both a world of good if you can.

February 24th 2023 onwards to March 5th 2023

Getting it right

Transiting Jupiter Trines your natal Sun

We often hear people say, 'nothing is impossible.' With little difficulty, we can easily think of much that is impossible. In doing so, we're not negative or defeatist. We're realistic. That's why it's important for you to have a realistic expectation where a certain involvement in your world is concerned.

It's easy to dream about what might be achieved one day, and there's nothing wrong with doing so per se. However, it's becoming increasingly important to assess what you know in your heart to be practical and achievable. Focus on what you know to be attainable, and you really will begin to move in a very splendid way toward achieving it.

March 2nd 2023 onwards to April 2nd 2024

10th

Right Place, Right Time

Jupiter transits your natal 10th house

We hear people talk about others being 'in the right place at the right time.' Where your career aspirations or pursuits are concerned, this could be a time when your faith in luck is strengthened – or revived. You too could find yourself in the right place, at the right time to make the right contacts and this could cause others to believe professional success comes effortlessly for you. However, it might be your easy-going, optimistic attitude that downplays or conceals the considerable effort you invested in finding yourself in fortuitous positions. This could be a time when your professional journey is an endless adventure. Being blessed with a 'larger-than-life' public persona will attract the right kind of attention – and not only from people who are attracted to you professionally!

April 18th to 27th 2023

Share and share alike

Transiting Jupiter Squares your natal Ascendant

How much are you willing to give and, more to the point, how much are you willing to accept where a certain relationship is concerned? Note though that the word 'accept' shouldn't be confused with the world 'tolerate.'

You are well placed to benefit from what can be learned from a certain person or shared situation now and to make the most of this, all you need to do is use your willingness to give in such a way that involves accepting that someone has something very special to give to you.

What matters now is how able you are to interact with others and willing you are to be a recipient rather than a giver. Let someone close share something wonderful with you.

July 10th to 25th 2023

Seeing the bigger picture

Transiting Jupiter Squares your natal Sun, REPEATED when retrograde from 14th to 30th October 2023. Exact 22nd October

There's something very satisfying about how a final piece of jigsaw puzzle fits into place. Once done, we see the complete picture of what we have painstakingly created. We are also aware though, of how much sorting and trial and error was involved in our creation.

That's why it's important you see a much bigger picture where a certain relationship is concerned. As much time and effort might be required to bring it to a satisfactory level. This can be done if you're willing to push aside a belief that a situation is too complex or will require more effort than you're willing to give.

Up-and-coming or Messy Trends

Uranus trends from 8th November 2022 to 7th November 2023

April 17th 2023 onwards to June 15th 2031

11th

Magic Within Chaos

Uranus transits your natal 11th house

We've all seen enough evidence in our time to accept that the best-laid plans can go awry. Accepting this fact of life can help you to understand the need to relinquish preconceived notions about your ability to control specific outcomes. You're encouraged to see the magic within chaos and serendipity. As frustrating as both might be, they can also be exciting. You're about to feel more reassured that unforeseen developments can send us in helpful directions we might have never considered. By accepting life's curveballs as opposed to resenting them, you'll be able to come up with innovative – and potentially brilliant - ways to overcome what others perceive as unhelpful and untimely setbacks. This will be essential to making at least one cherished aspiration become real.

Awareness or Tedious Trends

Neptune trends from 8th November 2022 to 7th November 2023

January 28th 2023 onwards to March 26th 2023

Essential Empathy

Transiting Neptune Trines your natal Ascendant

From a young age, we discover how much easier it is to overcome stubbornness with certain people by showing empathy toward them. There is a fine line between doing so and being seen as condescending. However, as many experienced salespeople know, to 'win' someone over, we need only be seen to be understanding of their objection and working with them to find a solution.
In your personal world, need exists to do precisely that. If you genuinely want to make progress with certain people - or a particular person - then sensitivity and compassion need to be applied. Try to be understanding of someone's situation and seen to be willing to provide a solution. The more imagination you're willing to apply to the latter, the more likely it is they'll take on board what you're proposing.

Forecast from 8th November

Thursday 10th November

5th

Spontaneous Magic

Sun transits your natal 5th house from 10th November 2022 to 15th December 2022

Let your playful side come out to play! While you're at it, permit your creative or expressive side to reveal itself, too. If conveying thoughts or feelings verbally to a certain person has proved tricky recently, then you're blessed with a superb opportunity now to express yourself in one of many creative ways. If you can harness and focus your creativity and the positive vibe the cosmos is supporting you with now, then your attractiveness can go off the scale! Magic sometimes needs a bit of spontaneity to help it manifest, so be guided by your sense of adventurousness. Take a calculated risk – or two!

Sunday 13th November

Problems with Past Pain

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Chiron from 13th to 15th November 2022. Exact 14th November

If you feel any confusion related to how or why your love affairs seem to go off on unexpected tangents, then this could be a time when you take a close look at your attitudes toward love. It's likely you're allowing a past hurt or disappointment to blur your vision of future possibilities. This could cause you to accept defeat with romantic involvements that could have become delightful if you put in the time or effort to see if they were worth fighting for. If you really want to find a love that lasts, then you're going to have to cease nurturing any past pain in the belief it's helping you see current and future love life circumstances realistically or objectively. It isn't.

Monday 14th November

Power of attraction

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Ascendant from 14th to 17th November 2022. Exact 16th November

Some people know how to command respect from others. They manage to do this effortlessly and in ways that encourage others to cooperate or be drawn toward them willingly.

To make progress in an area of your personal world, you don't need to apply any harsh or aggressive tactics. Simply be yourself. Treat those you want to be closer to you in ways you would want to be treated, and you could be surprised at how easily it is to win friends or influence certain people.

It's fair to say you possess a 'magnetic personality' now. Magnets can be fickle things, though. They know what they like to be drawn toward and what they prefer to repel. You're being assisted to draw toward you what and whom you need. Trust that and allow the process to work something wonderful on your behalf.

Wednesday 16th November

See the funny side

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Uranus from 16th to 19th November 2022. Exact 18th November

Comedies, in the film scriptwriting world, are known as 'personal dramas.' That's because what's happening to the main character is hilarious to those watching the film but isn't the least bit funny to the main character. What they're doing, or undertaking is serious, and the attainment of success means much to them.

In your personal world, you're about to find a reason to laugh or at least smile at something within all that seems too serious and challenging.

Steer clear as best you can of others' opinions on a certain matter. Aim to identify truth within a situation. Above all, see what's amusing within the chaos. Despite seemingly impossible situations, ludicrous challenges and ridiculous dramas, there is a reason to smile and your ability to do this will help you to see exactly what you need to do.

Tuesday 22nd November

Rise to the Challenge

Transiting Sun Trines your natal North Node from 22nd to 24th November 2022. Exact 23rd November

Falling in love needn't ever distract you from your forward path in life. If anything, it can help you define it. You have a clear idea of where you want to be in the future and are unlikely to involve yourself with someone who would risk bringing complete chaos to your plans. Even if your love life goes off on a tangent, you're creative and resourceful enough to cope with unexpected developments. You could find yourself considering your ability to go with such a flow now. However, even if what you're faced with now is a challenge of some kind, you might need to do more than simply roll with it. A challenge can teach you much about yourself and what you're made of. Your emotional world or one important connection can only benefit from what you discover.

Also on Tuesday

Something Positive

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal South Node from 22nd to 24th November 2022. Exact 23rd November

You're ready to move forward toward your future with an open mind and heart. Whether single or attached, you can see how the proverbial glass is always half full instead of half empty, and any love life circumstances that arise will offer something positive. This attitude is one that should be applied throughout your life, and not just at this time. You're keen to develop yourself and to grow and progress as an individual. You can also see how a romantic relationship can help you do so. This is a time to appreciate love and all that it brings into your life, but you have other goals that are just as important as those you've set in your emotional world. Trying to balance the time and effort you can give to them all is your cosmic mission now!

Friday 25th November

Confidence brings support

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Mercury from 25th to 28th November 2022. Exact 27th November

At what point do we become aware that we've given enough effort to a particular area? This usually coincides with a clear message that comes to us from deep within our brains that we're pleased with a result, for the time being, anyway. It also comes from communication from others that we're doing something right or they understand what it is we set out to achieve.

So, with that in mind, why do you feel so answerable to so many people? Why do these people seem incapable of sharing your view, position or plan at face value? Why isn't something as obvious to others as it is to you?

In your personal world now, there exists a need for you to assert yourself and be less conciliatory. In other words, the time has come for you not to give in so easily or be quite as willing to placate certain others – or someone in particular.

If you're willing to boost your confidence levels and invest just a bit more effort to make a point, then you are likely to be both surprised and delighted at how supported you really are.

Also on Friday

Taking the initiative

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Moon from 25th to 27th November 2022. Exact 26th November

We learn from a young age that, if we don't 'ask,' we don't 'get.'

It becomes clear that some level of proactivity and possibly even imagination are needed if we're to make something happen. It also becomes clear that, sometimes, we need to remove ourselves from comfort zones, even if doing so makes us feel uncomfortable or have to face one or two difficult facts doing so.

As much as you would prefer not to rock a proverbial boat and simply accept rather than question a situation now, if you do not already see evidence of a need to take the initiative and bring change where it is needed, then you will do, soon enough.

Turning the other cheek, avoiding confrontation wherever possible or doing anything for a quiet and easy life are admirable traits, but they're not always practical. It's time to summon courage and take a brave step forward where a certain situation or individual is concerned. Where a relaxed attitude has been helpful so far, the time has come to put your foot down and send a clear message that you can choose to take the initiative when you know you must.

Saturday 26th November

Remain on the side-lines

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Jupiter from 26th to 29th November 2022. Exact 28th November

It can be frustrating when we believe ourselves able to see what someone else cannot. A way forward might be crystal clear to us yet, for some reason, someone else simply cannot connect with it.

When this happens, some people feel inclined to take the reins and control of a situation, hoping to guide the person they believe to be misguided or oblivious to the right decision or destination.

Avoid a tendency now to believe you know what's best for others or a certain person in your world. By all means, show understanding, be willing to be supportive and compassionate but consider the fact that some people have their own agendas and are determined to stick with them.

That doesn't make either of you 'wrong' but, as much as you might believe yourself to be best placed to provide guidance or encourage someone to reconsider a belief, you could gain so much more now from stepping back and letting others do what suits them.

Also on Saturday

Trusting instincts in the absence of facts

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Saturn from 26th to 28th November 2022. Exact 27th November

When a need to be decisive presents itself, then the process tends to be considerably easier when we believe we have all or at least enough facts to assist with the decision.

If we don't have enough facts, then what happens? That depends on how urgently we must make our decision but, more often than not, we call upon our instincts to assist us.

In your personal world now, there exists a need for you to trust your deepest instinct in the absence of factual information. Take at face value to a point what you're seeing or are being encouraged to accept is real.

Far better progress will be made if you're willing to trust what you're telling yourself. Do that, and then pursue the decision that needs to be made with all your heart.

Forecast for December 2022

Friday 2nd December

No shrinking violets

Transiting Sun Trines your natal MidHeaven from 2nd to 5th December 2022. Exact 4th December

A little bit of praise, we know, can go a long way. Praise, when we know we deserve it, can do much to boost our confidence levels and encourage us to think more about what else we might be capable of.

In an area of your personal world now, you're well placed to receive praise and recognition, and this can only spur you on to want to achieve more.

If you're willing to back up your words with action, then some form of personal success is assured. You probably don't have to force issues and could be surprised at how accepted you and what you're proposing or suggesting are.

This is a time to make clear to certain others - or one person in particular - what you truly want. Don't be a shrinking violet. Aim high, and you'll be delighted with responses you receive.

Also on Friday

Timing and trust

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Sun from 2nd to 4th December 2022. Exact 3rd December

Making what we believe to be 'the right move' relies on us possessing some degree of skill and timing. What matters now is not whether you have 'the advantage' in some way but whether or not you possess confidence and patience to know when 'the right time' exists to make 'the right move.'

Power and control you have yearned for in an area of your personal world are making their way to you. Before you can receive both properly though, you need to accept what it is you do have at your disposal: an opportunity.

Be prepared to trust in ways you have been unwilling to trust previously. This will help you to identify the opportunity presenting itself and the wonderful possibility that accompanies it.

It will soon be within your abilities to make something seemingly minor into something very significant. When you see evidence of this, then you can expect soon afterward to see a noticeable boost to your confidence and optimism levels.

Saturday 3rd December

Let time bring a desired improvement

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Venus from 3rd to 5th December 2022. Exact 4th December

In the same way it can be difficult to remove a song embedded in our minds, it can be as equally difficult to banish thoughts or images.

In your personal world now, there is something or someone you feel very attracted to, intrigued by and excited about but banishing this thought could prove to be an exercise in futility.

However, the good news is, you don't have to make a real, concerted effort to do anything at this stage. You can afford to wait until you're in a better position to make a move.

Have faith in the fact that your situation will improve naturally over time and, where your love life is concerned, if it leaves much to be desired then have even more faith in the fact that, very soon, you can expect proof of how desired by at least one person you are.

Sunday 11th December

Don't succumb to 'que sera sera'

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Pluto from 11th to 14th December 2022. Exact 13th December

Are you in control of a particular outcome or do you feel as if 'whatever will be, will be'?

Even if it feels as if unseen forces are at work to encourage you toward a particular outcome, and you have no option other than to allow yourself to end up wherever it is you're going to end up, it is essential that you have absolute faith in the fact that you do possess the ability to influence a situation that (understandably) gives the impression of being immovable or inflexible.

In your personal world, it is time to overcome a fear. Once done, you will be superbly placed to take control of whatever has appeared to control you and then turn a daunting situation into one that becomes much more inspiring.

Monday 12th December

Action will cause a most pleasing reaction

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Neptune from 12th to 15th December 2022. Exact 14th December

Action always causes a reaction. If we aim at nothing, then we're guaranteed to hit it.

The above might seem painfully obvious but we all, from time to time, don't invest effort where we know we need to and one of the main reasons for this stems from fear of failure or rejection.

In an area of your personal world now, you need to tell - and convince - yourself that certain goals, dreams or desires are not beyond your grasp.

If you're willing to make a genuine and worthwhile effort toward attaining something – or someone – that means a great deal to you, then the time to pursue it or them couldn't be better.

Investing the right kind of effort now will bring magical and pleasing progress. Additionally, you'll gain much needed, fresh perspective where it is needed, and this will undoubtedly make a very big difference to your attitude, confidence, and life!

Thursday 15th December

6th

Obligations and More Obligations

Sun transits your natal 6th house from 15th December 2022 to 14th January 2023

This could be a time when you weight up your needs with obligations or responsibilities you have to others or one particular person. Where close, loving relationships are concerned, how much of what you do or give is based on what you want to offer and what you do to keep the peace or someone happy? If you're behaving differently from your inherent nature or working a bit too hard to meet someone's expectations, then this could become apparent now. Of course, all relationships involve obligations. However, by addressing and accepting your personal needs, a balance can be found. This can put any close relationship, now or in the future, on a more solid and stable footing.

Saturday 24th December

Stepping back is best

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Moon from 24th to 27th December 2022. Exact 26th December

We are all, in one way or another, influenced strongly by our companions, colleagues and family members. However, we tend not to consider how influenced we are by what we believe they want from us as opposed to what they really want from us.

The boundaries of your relationship with one person - or possibly a group of people - are being redefined now. This could be causing you to fear that you're alienating yourself unnecessarily in some way yet, at the same time, it could be apparent that you involve yourself in dramas or other peoples' situations in ways you should be!

The redefining of boundaries is going to involve you to detach yourself in some way from certain others but don't succumb to a belief that the only way to remain connected as things stand presently is to involve yourself with what's happening in their worlds in ways that could justifiably be seen as inappropriate.

A shift is occurring where your relationships with key people are concerned. Step back, let what's changing unfold in its own way and time, and this will benefit you and those you're closest to.

Sunday 25th December

Shake off apathy

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Saturn from 25th to 28th December 2022. Exact 27th December

Imagine you're standing on the edge of a high diving board, peering down to the water below but have strong reservations about taking the plunge. Imagine as well that, behind you, a queue of impatient and more experienced divers wait for you to make up your mind about what you're going to do.

That analogy sums up a situation in your personal world now. You're clearly under pressure in some way to take action or make a decision yet it's important you are being pressured in the way you are because otherwise you won't make the decision or move you truly need to make.

You have a difficult dispute to solve or a complicated story to unravel yet, through a constant source of aggravation, aren't feeling inclined to consider a particular course of action. It's time to shake off apathy and seize a valuable opportunity. Like most opportunities, yours might be hidden within a perceived problem, but trust that the opportunity being presented to you now is very real.

Monday 26th December

You can rebuild it

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Jupiter from 26th to 29th December 2022. Exact 28th December

Weightlifters understand the concept that building muscle requires muscle fibers to be broken down and allowed to rebuild during a healing process. When they rebuild themselves, they are bigger, better and stronger than before.

The analogy holds some relevance in your personal world now. Something needs to be broken down and rebuilt in some way, but it is important you focus on how much better a situation or arrangement will be from having done so.

If something feels right and makes you feel confident and assured, then chances are it doesn't need much of your attention. Focus instead on what you know to be uncertain or unstable. It can be fixed provided you're willing to instigate necessary change that can both heal and strengthen what needs healing or strengthening.

Saturday 31st December

Go solo - for now

Transiting Sun Squares your natal MidHeaven from 31st December 2022 to 3rd January 2023. Exact 2nd January 2023

Many of us adhere to the old saying, 'if a job's worth doing, it's worth doing properly.' An extension of this saying goes 'if a job's worth doing, then it's worth doing yourself' in the belief that, sometimes, if we want something to be done in a way we will be satisfied with, then we must undertake to do it ourselves.

In your personal world now, there is something that you ought to consider doing solo without help or intervention from others. You could be prone to negative criticism from one or two people, possibly those you believe to be authoritative in some way, who don't quite connect with what it is you're trying to achieve.

This doesn't make them or you wrong. It means you have some work to do to reassure certain people or a certain person that an ambitious plan is viable. That's why you might need to 'go it alone' for the time being to gain support and understanding where both might be unavailable now.

Also on Saturday

An adventure awaits

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Mars from 31st December 2022 to 2nd January 2023. Exact 1st January 2023

People often speak about their desire for 'an easy life.' While we might express a desire for such a thing occasionally, in our hearts, we know that a life without challenge would be a dull life indeed.

Perhaps, in your personal world now, the last thing you want is a challenge. You're under intense pressure and likely aware of a strong urge to prove yourself in some way or instigate change on some level.

What's needed now is perseverance, determination, a generous helping of willpower and, above all, insight. There's something you need to explore. There's an answer you need to find.

Part of you might suspect that 'nearly' knowing something or knowing only a part of it is enough. You know, in your heart, that you need the whole story and all of the facts. You're being encouraged to accept a challenge and invest levels of effort needed to overcome it but have faith in the fact that you have all that you need, and your chances of success are extremely high.

Forecast for January 2023

Sunday 1st January

Love you can depend on

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Venus from 1st to 4th January 2023. Exact 3rd January

People sometimes go to great lengths in a material sense to show their affection toward another. Flowers and chocolates are wonderful to receive but not when the recipient isn't interested in such grand and seemingly empty gestures.

What you want is a particular person to be more consistently sweeter toward you. That's all. Methods they're choosing to use are likely falling short of what you believe you want and need and, if anything, such material gestures might even be making you feel more suspicious than grateful.

You want love you can depend on and, fortunately, you're closer to attaining that than you might think.

Curiously, both your bank account and heart look set to receive a very welcome boost. In your personal world though, you can expect proof of your ability to attract affection. Prepare, very soon, to attain what you feel most desirous of or is lacking where love, romance, and intimacy are concerned.

Tuesday 10th January

A storm in a teacup

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Pluto from 10th to 13th January 2023. Exact 12th January

We understand that the bark of some dogs is more of an issue than their bite. We also know how some people can talk incessantly or authoritatively but actually say very little.

Somewhere in your personal world, an annoying point of conflict is making itself known, or presence felt. It intends to ensure you take it seriously and won't take kindly to being ignored.

You, on the other hand, have the upper hand. While the issue is keen to ensure it receives the attention it deserves, you have a choice about how much of an issue you want it to be and how much of your time and attention you believe it deserves.

By all means, acknowledge the issue but see it for what it really is – a mere storm in a proverbial tea cup.

Wednesday 11th January

Love You've Dreamed Of

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Chiron from 11th to 13th January 2023. Exact 12th January

You're blessed with an ability to judge peoples' character accurately. However, even if someone ticked all the essential boxes and reassured you they were worth risking your heart with in the past, you can't have accounted for certain traits that arose further down the line. It's these that might have led to you experiencing pain in previous relationships and made you wary about committing in the future. Fortunately, you could find yourself adopting more of an open mind to relationships and commitments now. You know someone is deserving of your love, and hopefully you're with such a person. If so, then you could feel willing to cross a line of commitment that you've chosen to remain behind for reasons outlined earlier. If you're single, then you deserve to be fussy about who you choose to give your heart to. Either way, you're in a superb position to find long-term, stable, committed love you've always dreamed of. All that's needed is an open mind, an open heart and the courage to put any past pain well and truly behind you.

Friday 13th January

Form a very helpful bond

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Ascendant from 13th to 15th January 2023. Exact 14th January

Some people thrive in their own company. They know what they like and like what they know. However, even those who feel no need to collaborate or seek advice from others succumb from time to time to the concept that much can be gained from syncing in some way or on some level with others.

In your personal world now, there's much to be gained from 'joining forces' with or allowing yourself to be drawn toward certain others - or one person in particular. If you're willing to let your guard down even briefly, then you'll find there is much enjoyment to be had and delightful progress to be made through one-on-one activity, negotiating or even putting yourself in someone else's shoes to understand them or a situation better in some way.

If you're struggling with a decision, then you won't have to look very hard to find someone willing to hear what it is you're struggling with, and a lovely bond could result from the adage 'two heads are better than one.'

Saturday 14th January

A turning point, not a backward step

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Uranus from 14th to 17th January 2023. Exact 16th January

There are times when we have no option other than to push a point. We are all capable of accepting or tolerating a situation to a certain point and then it becomes clear that something must 'give.'

Within your personal world now, you could be increasingly aware of how you might have been too quick to reject something - or someone – you previously felt so able to accept. This is causing you to doubt your judgment about a particular matter and possibly believe yourself to be illogical, impractical or inconsistent.

It's important to understand that you have finally reached a turning point in some way regarding an agreement or arrangement. It's also important that you believe this is extremely positive and worth celebrating, not a cause for consolation.

Sunday 15th January

7th

Spirit of Teamwork

Sun transits your natal 7th house from 15th January 2023 to 5th February 2023

This is a time when partnerships become increasingly important to you. You might feel a stronger need than usual to be 'with' someone and could also discover that sharing ideas helps you to understand yourself more. Words like, 'I' and 'me' could be replaced increasingly with words like 'we' and 'us' and it can be extremely helpful to draw upon the energies, companionship, and support of others, or one special person. As keen as you might normally be to 'go it alone,' seek out like minds or individuals who share your aspirations or ambitiousness. What you want to make happen could be something someone else is keen to experience. Embracing the spirit of teamwork or collaboration is not only integral to your self-discovery but can also be integral to forming or strengthening one special connection now.

Friday 20th January

Free From Painful Patterns

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal North Node from 20th to 22nd January 2023. Exact 21st January

You might be oblivious to how you repeat the same relationship mistakes again and again. This forms patterns that can be extremely difficult to free yourself from. Cast your mind back to certain relationships you've been involved in. A pattern likely exists regarding ways your lovers treated you and ways you reacted and responded to them. Can you see a similarity among past lovers that indicates a certain 'type' of person you tend to become involved with? Now, cast your mind back to any happy, comfortable relationships you've enjoyed or are hopefully enjoying now. These are happy and comfortable because you managed to free yourself from old, familiar and potentially painful patterns. Your challenge now is to push forward toward new and improved ways of interacting with a loved one or future partner. You did it previously. You can do it again.

Also on Friday

Accepting Uniqueness

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal South Node from 20th to 22nd January 2023. Exact 21st January

Casting your mind back to previous relationships could reveal a common denominator within them. Perhaps you've been attracted to the same type of person time and time again, or romances have ended in similar ways. This could be due to being stuck in the past and something you consider more openly and honestly now. Looking closely at your current love life circumstances could reveal where you're slipping into the same comfortable and easy patterns. Be willing to spot where you might be re-creating the same relationship again instead of adopting new ways of relating. An existing relationship or embarking upon a new one relies strongly on you accepting someone as the unique person they are and not making comparisons to any lovers from your past.

Monday 23th January

Stop trying to do the impossible

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Mercury from 23rd to 26th January 2023. Exact 25th January

There's an old saying that goes, 'never try to teach a pig to sing, it only wastes your time and annoys the pig.' There's also another, more common saying that surrounds leading a horse to water and trying to make the animal drink.

As wonderful as it is to be ambitious and undeterred by what appears impossible, we all reach a point where it becomes clear we're wasting valuable time pursuing what cannot be achieved.

That sums up a situation in your personal world now. It's likely to become clear, very soon, that you need to think very carefully about what – or whom - you invest your time and energy toward. The indications are there that both could be put to much better and more effective use elsewhere!

Also on Monday

Prepare for a 'Eureka Moment'

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Moon from 23rd to 25th January 2023. Exact 24th January

Can you remember when you last experienced a 'Eureka Moment'?

We all have these from time to time; sudden moments of clarity that are always wonderful – and often timely – to receive.

In your personal world now, a moment of clarity is about to be experienced by you. Don't succumb to a temptation to assess certain yearnings or needs deeply. Trust that you feel what you feel because, in more than one way, what you feel suits you and you're being steered toward the attainment of a cherished personal goal.

First, you need clarity. Embrace the revelation winging its way to you and, when it arrives, you'll know precisely why it is right and what your next move should be.

Tuesday 24th January

An investigative adventure

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Jupiter from 24th to 27th January 2023. Exact 26th January

Do you own a deerstalker hat, curved Calabash pipe, and a magnifying glass? Anyone donning or holding these items would be easily identifiable as Sherlock Holmes and, in an area of your personal world now, need exists for you to become a sleuth of some kind.

There's a need to acquire information, canvass opinion and research every aspect of a particular story. You probably have your suspicions about the outcome of your efforts but are also aware of dangers surrounding being too impulsive - or assumptive - now.

What you need to confirm requires effort on your part to uncover what needs to be uncovered or identify what is waiting to be identified. Then, once you've finished your fact-gathering exercise, you can expect to find yourself surprised and then delighted in some way with what you discover.

Also on Tuesday

From chaos stability will come

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Saturn from 24th to 26th January 2023. Exact 25th January

Some people thrive on chaos. It spurs them on to make impressive achievements. Other people avoid chaos wherever possible. They know they get the best results from operating in structured and predictable environments.

In your personal world, you would much prefer the latter. You want something to be more efficient, stable and structured but cannot help but be painfully aware of all that seems chaotic or unpredictable.

Expect soon, to enjoy a more stable and less volatile situation. Until then, remain focused on the progress you are making in amongst the unignorable chaos!

Monday 30th January

A meeting of like minds

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal MidHeaven from 30th January 2023 to 1st February 2023. Exact 1st February

Confidence, we know, can be an attractive quality for someone to possess. We are drawn toward people who exude confidence and impress us with their 'make things happen' attitudes and beliefs.

Before we can feel confident though, we usually want to see some evidence of confidence having played a part in us achieving success previously. You're superbly placed now to benefit from a significant confidence boost that is bound to encourage you to look at what you have achieved and what else might be possible.

Personal success and social accomplishment are on offer. Through putting yourself in a proverbial spotlight, you will discover how much attention you attract and transforming your personal world through a linking of like minds is very possible.

Also on Monday

Let it go

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Sun from 30th January 2023 to 1st February 2023. Exact 31st January

When we try to live up to an unrealistic expectation, it doesn't take long before we find ourselves weary of doing so. If you're feeling restless now, then it's likely you're carrying a burden that you need to drop.

Your determination to continue carrying or shouldering this burden could stem from your belief that a certain person will be disappointed or let down if you don't behave or respond in certain ways.

In an area of your personal world, the time has come to explain to you-know-who what it is you've had enough of. You could even find that someone hanging on to an existing or outdated arrangement of belief is only doing so because they believe it's what you expect from them.

It is possible to rewrite rules and redefine arrangements. Are we talking about a lengthy, time-consuming process requiring you to summon patience, unlike anything you've had to muster before? Not at all. In the same way Dorothy unknowingly had the power to return home from Oz anytime she chose to, you too can bring about change you long to see whenever you choose to.

You have had enough of a silly drama or ongoing battle. As soon as you let something end, you will discover that it resolves itself with little intervention from you, allowing you to get on with something far more productive and enjoyable.

Forecast for February 2023

Sunday 5th February

8th

Deep Sharing

Sun transits your natal 8th house from 5th February 2023 to 2nd March 2023

Each of us possesses a 'dark side' but can suppress and release aspects of our personalities in different ways. Like everyone else, you've experienced your share of hurtful experiences but might struggle to learn lessons from these, move on from them and accept how they've helped you to become stronger. The more you try to conquer emotional issues, the more self-confident you will become, and this can be integral to healing old wounds. It's also possible that, through intimacy, you'll gain a greater sense of self-awareness, and subconscious issues from your past could emerge from close interactions with another person. As long as you remember that sexual connections are meant to be two-way exchanges and not all about you, then this can be a very revealing time, in more ways than one!

Wednesday 8th February

Cut the niceties and let truth reveal itself

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Pluto from 8th to 11th February 2023. Exact 10th February

Sometimes, we hear what people say but can't help wonder what it is they really mean. Other times, we're painfully aware of how easily some people can avoid discussing a particular issue.

There are also people who want to listen but fail to grasp the concept of real, meaningful communication.

In your personal world, you're likely retracing old ground where a discussion with a particular person is concerned. Where there has been little in the way of progress previously, it is through an urgent, pressing reason presenting itself now that a need to cut niceties and exchange truth exists.

It's time for you and you-know-who to 'come clean.' Believe it is best that this has happened later than not at all and it is not too late to have the discussion that needs to be had.

Thursday 9th February

Push aside passion

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Neptune from 9th to 11th February 2023. Exact 11th February

Is there an invisible clock ticking away somewhere that makes you feel you're under unnecessary pressure? Perhaps the clock you're focused so intently on is far from invisible.

Regardless of pressure you might feel obliged to succumb to in an area of your personal world, take a moment to breathe deeply and make an effort to proceed slowly. By giving in to pressure now, you risk compromising your ability to make incisive and accurate judgments. This, in turn, is likely to cause you to prolong a process that needn't be dragged out.

It's fair to say you have strong feelings about a situation or individual. Powerful passions often create some level of confusion. Do your very best to push aside passion for the time being. What's needed is clarity and if you allow it to come, then it will. Once it does, you'll be much better placed to trust the new understanding and act on it wisely, not hastily.

Also on Thursday

Don't Kid Yourself

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Chiron from 9th to 12th February 2023. Exact 11th February

You could be subconsciously attracted to relationships that present a challenge at this time. Where you might have chosen to embark only upon short-term relationships in the belief that, the shorter the relationship is, the cleaner the break will be when it ends. This attitude might have been formed due to painful or upsetting episodes that occurred in the past. However, it could become clear that short-term flings offer little or no depth of connection. Don't kid yourself into believing you're immune to the joy that comes from a deep, meaningful, loving and intimate connection. You could find yourself assessing new ways to make long-term relationships work. The first step involves releasing yourself from past hurts that offer only a lesson to be absorbed and moved on from. Now it a perfect time to start that 'moving on' process.

Monday 13th February

Push is coming to shove

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Uranus from 13th to 15th February 2023. Exact 14th February

Somewhere in your personal world, 'push' is about to meet 'shove.' It is only a matter of time before both come together.

You have the option to wait and see what happens when these two collide. Like any collision, there's a very strong possibility you'll not find the experience pleasurable to view or be part of.

That's why it's important you see the signs, smell the coffee or and read writing on the proverbial wall. You can bring about a change that will alleviate much of the potential stress or damage in a relationship by taking action before you're left with no alternative other than to accept what's likely to occur.

Take control and allow yourself to feel more powerful. You can do it and, when you do, you'll discover how powerful and influential you really are.

Tuesday 28th February

Harnessing power available to you

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Mars from 28th February 2023 to 2nd March 2023. Exact 1st March

People sometimes speak about atmosphere's being or feeling 'electric.' In your personal world now, it's likely you could experience a few flying sparks.

Trust that the energy available to you now is extremely positive and is intended to help. You have, at your disposal, the ability to repair much of what needs repairing as far as relationships, situations, and arrangements with others are concerned. You are blessed with an ability to improve much in your own world while, at the same time, the world of others - or a certain person to whom you are close or want to be closer to.

The more constructively you use the power and influence available to you now, the more of both you will discover you have available to you.

Forecast for March 2023

Thursday 2nd March

9th

Sexy Communicating

Sun transits your natal 9th house from 2nd March 2023 to 2nd April 2023

Relationships offer constant learning curves. At no point can anyone state that they know all there is to know about connecting with another human being, intellectually and physically. However, that's what makes forming relationships so magical. We embark upon them, never being clear about where the journey might take us! Although you might be aware of how capable you are to communicate verbally or intellectually with someone, consider your ability to communicate intuitively. This includes sexually because sexual communication is as strong as an intuitive bond between two people can be! If you've never considered replacing words with intimate actions, then that might be something you find yourself giving more thought to now!

Also on Thursday

Is it worth the effort?

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Venus from 2nd to 4th March 2023. Exact 3rd March

Are you aware of a demand made on your heart or even your bank balance? Someone likely wants more time, attention or resources than you're likely able to spare.

This could be resulting in a perceived need on your part to placate them but don't succumb to the belief that it's fair to be expected to do the impossible.

If you're experiencing stress or tension with your relationship with a certain person, then consider if you're actually secretly enjoying the exhausting exchange or are possibly being forced in some way to have it.

If it's the former, then stop responding. This might put you in a temporary advantage, but perhaps that's all you need to take stock of where you're going and what or whom you truly want.

If it's the latter, then do the above! It's wonderful to want something or someone so badly but at what price? It's time to decide if all you have to go through and tolerate to get it or them really is worth the effort.

Saturday 11th March

Important Aims

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Chiron from 11th to 14th March 2023. Exact 13th March

You could be finely tuned-in to who you are, what you can offer a relationship but also what you want from it. Your cherished aspirations don't need to move down your priority list when you embark upon a new romance. You've learned to integrate the two to make them work together previously and finding or enhancing a romantic connection is only one of your important aims in life. You could be reminded at this time of the need for a lover who respects your choices and interests, and who will give you the necessary space to push forward in life and achieve all that you want to achieve. If you're with such a person, then it could be helpful and timely to update them on what matters most to you, aspiration-wise. If you're single, then you could adjust your Partner Requirement List accordingly!

Also on Saturday

Ignore drama and exaggeration

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Neptune from 11th to 13th March 2023. Exact 12th March

To prove a point, we sometimes feel the need to go to great lengths. We believe it necessary to inject some drama or exaggeration to illustrate how important a particular issue or belief is to us.

Drama and exaggeration do little to convince others of our belief levels. Often, they'd prefer we were less dramatic or prone to exaggeration!

That's why, in your personal world now, you need to refrain from going 'over the top' regarding making a particular point. If you can separate fact from the fantasy that is being nurtured now, then you can make your point with clarity and not be at risk of being seen as unrealistic or having no true grasp of what you ought to be more certain of.

The same applies to a fearful fantasy, should you be nurturing of those instead. Much is being distorted now and the more you can be realistic and pragmatic, the less stress you'll encourage to come your way.

Monday 13th March

Power of attraction

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Ascendant from 13th to 16th March 2023. Exact 15th March

Some people know how to command respect from others. They manage to do this effortlessly and in ways that encourage others to cooperate or be drawn toward them willingly.

To make progress in an area of your personal world, you don't need to apply any harsh or aggressive tactics. Simply be yourself. Treat those you want to be closer to you in ways you would want to be treated, and you could be surprised at how easily it is to win friends or influence certain people.

It's fair to say you possess a 'magnetic personality' now. Magnets can be fickle things, though. They know what they like to be drawn toward and what they prefer to repel. You're being assisted to draw toward you what and whom you need. Trust that and allow the process to work something wonderful on your behalf.

Tuesday 14th March

Embrace the chaos

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Uranus from 14th to 17th March 2023. Exact 16th March

Sometimes, when we become aware of a need to 'sort something out,' we discover there could be benefits to going above the call of duty and making a situation more chaotic or disrupted to sort it out properly.

The same can be said about an area of your personal world now. Allow chaos trying to present itself to do so. Embrace the unusual, the unpredictable or even what appears downright disruptive. We lead lives that tend to be very orderly and predictable. You're being encouraged to allow and accept disruption in your world now and look likely to be grateful for it.

It's time to alter a situation, arrangement or agreement that has been stale and static for too long. Be willing to invite some chaos and, once the proverbial dust settles, you look set to make more than one valuable discovery.

Monday 20th March

Rise to the Challenge

Transiting Sun Trines your natal North Node from 20th to 23rd March 2023. Exact 22nd March

Falling in love needn't ever distract you from your forward path in life. If anything, it can help you define it. You have a clear idea of where you want to be in the future and are unlikely to involve yourself with someone who would risk bringing complete chaos to your plans. Even if your love life goes off on a tangent, you're creative and resourceful enough to cope with unexpected developments. You could find yourself considering your ability to go with such a flow now. However, even if what you're faced with now is a challenge of some kind, you might need to do more than simply roll with it. A challenge can teach you much about yourself and what you're made of. Your emotional world or one important connection can only benefit from what you discover.

Something Positive

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal South Node from 20th to 23rd March 2023. Exact 22nd March

You're ready to move forward toward your future with an open mind and heart. Whether single or attached, you can see how the proverbial glass is always half full instead of half empty, and any love life circumstances that arise will offer something positive. This attitude is one that should be applied throughout your life, and not just at this time. You're keen to develop yourself and to grow and progress as an individual. You can also see how a romantic relationship can help you do so. This is a time to appreciate love and all that it brings into your life, but you have other goals that are just as important as those you've set in your emotional world. Trying to balance the time and effort you can give to them all is your cosmic mission now!

Thursday 23th March

Success through self-improvement

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Moon from 23rd to 26th March 2023. Exact 25th March

We know how exerting ourselves physically can result in weariness. We also know how a drain on our resources, particularly if it's something sapping our emotional strength, can be as tiring.

In your personal world now, such a drain on resources exists in some way, and if you do not already see evidence of this, then proof will become clear soon.

Fortunately, you will also see a way to solve this particular problem. Rather than lay down laws or bang fists on a table to make clear to a certain person that you've had enough of this tiring scenario, you'd be well advised to adopt a cleverer, more permanent strategy.

Be subtle, even if you feel like being anything but subtle. Instead of investing effort toward pushing a point or even waging war, invest effort toward understanding yourself better, look closely at what your weaknesses are and what's required from you to be a better and more understanding person.

That's not the same as tolerating something you don't have to tolerate but, if you're willing to look closely at how improving aspects of yourself will improve you as a person, then you can expect a true victory that is much more worth having and one that will resolve the tiring issue in ways confrontation could never hope to achieve.

Friday 24th March

Confidence brings support

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Mercury from 24th to 27th March 2023. Exact 26th March

At what point do we become aware that we've given enough effort to a particular area? This usually coincides with a clear message that comes to us from deep within our brains that we're pleased with a result, for the time being, anyway. It also comes from communication from others that we're doing something right or they understand what it is we set out to achieve.

So, with that in mind, why do you feel so answerable to so many people? Why do these people seem incapable of sharing your view, position or plan at face value? Why isn't something as obvious to others as it is to you?

In your personal world now, there exists a need for you to assert yourself and be less conciliatory. In other words, the time has come for you not to give in so easily or be quite as willing to placate certain others – or someone in particular.

If you're willing to boost your confidence levels and invest just a bit more effort to make a point, then you are likely to be both surprised and delighted at how supported you really are.

Also on Friday

Full attention and concentration required

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Saturn from 24th to 27th March 2023. Exact 26th March

There's no shirking a duty or obligation now. We know when we have to take something seriously that we've been putting off for some time and now is such a time.

Within an area of your personal world, you're about to accomplish something impressive, significant and meaningful despite the fact that you can hardly expect a peaceful, quiet time doing so. There's something you have to do, or somewhere you need to be, and whatever-it-is requires your full attention and concentration.

There is, though, something amusing or ironic within all that's happening. What appears so very serious does have, fortunately, something within it capable of making you smile. You are very able to discover this and succeed admirably with what needs your attention now.

Saturday 25th March

Avoid going to extremes

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Jupiter from 25th to 28th March 2023. Exact 27th March

Do you need a telephone box to get changed in? Or is your superhero suit something you wear beneath your clothing to make yourself available to save the day at a second's notice?

You could, at this time, believe yourself to be superhuman and inclined to reply and respond to cries for help from certain quarters or a particular person. Some of these might be genuine but be assured that some of them are not.

Your judgment of a situation in your personal world could be regarded as extreme. You could convince yourself that a seemingly extreme situation requires extreme measures. It's important you accept your limitations. It's not your responsibility to go to great lengths to prove a point or yourself in some way.
Relax and accept that a more relaxed and softer stance will be much more beneficial to you and others.

Thursday 30th March

Calm after the storm

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Mars from 30th March 2023 to 2nd April 2023. Exact 1st April

The interesting and helpful thing about most storms is, we have some idea they're coming. We're often given some degree of warning, even if that warning is at short notice.

In your personal world now, a storm is undoubtedly brewing, but it's one that you're very prepared for. You needn't be concerned about its strength or any likelihood of being blown off course.

Expect, once the proverbial skies clear, to see how safer and stronger you are. Where your relationships with certain people or one person, in particular, are concerned, you're about to see reasons why you don't have to be everywhere at once and going to great lengths to please or placate those who demand you should.

The one person who truly deserves effort you're prepared to give to please them is you. Once you return to focusing more on this, much in your world will become plain sailing, once again.

Friday 31st March

Timing and trust

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Sun from 31st March 2023 to 2nd April 2023. Exact 1st April

Making what we believe to be 'the right move' relies on us possessing some degree of skill and timing. What matters now is not whether you have 'the advantage' in some way but whether or not you possess confidence and patience to know when 'the right time' exists to make 'the right move.'

Power and control you have yearned for in an area of your personal world are making their way to you. Before you can receive both properly though, you need to accept what it is you do have at your disposal: an opportunity.

Be prepared to trust in ways you have been unwilling to trust previously. This will help you to identify the opportunity presenting itself and the wonderful possibility that accompanies it.

It will soon be within your abilities to make something seemingly minor into something very significant. When you see evidence of this, then you can expect soon afterward to see a noticeable boost to your confidence and optimism levels.

Also on Friday

Making yourself known

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal MidHeaven from 31st March 2023 to 2nd April 2023. Exact 1st April

Most artists, once they've experienced success with their craft, feel an urge to make available what they do to more and more people. If a certain number of people enjoyed what they've created, then it stands to reason that many others would too, if they were aware of what was being offered!

Might the same notion apply to an area of your personal world now? You could be feeling inclined to expand your social networks, make clear to yourself or one or two others how ambitious you are feeling or break free from a restrictive situation within which you feel misunderstood or taken for granted.

Success can be had through effort on your part to make yourself known or what you can offer outside of a sphere you're comfortable with. If you're willing to make an effort, then you'll be delighted to discover how supportive and willing to explore further what you're offering others will be.

Forecast for April 2023

Balancing Work and Love

Sun transits your natal 10th house from 2nd April 2023 to 8th May 2023

We hear people say that someone's success was the reason a marriage or relationship failed. However, if someone had made the right choice with selecting a partner, then surely success would have enhanced their relationship. Sure, in this day and age, everyone has to put in the hours at work and needs an understanding and supportive partner to accept that a career becomes a priority occasionally. This could be a time when you assess how balanced your professional life is with your personal life. It's possible your career could be regarded as a priority, and if you're single and uninterested in a love relationship, then that's fine. However, if you're attached or finding love is important to you, then it could become clear how you'll need to tip the balance a bit more toward your emotional world. The two worlds can complement each other and needn't be exclusive.

Monday 10th April

Reasons to be hopeful

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Neptune from 10th to 13th April 2023. Exact 12th April

If we're presented with paper money in any currency, provided we're reassured it's genuine then we're willing to accept it's worth what we understand it to be worth. We don't need to see the same value in coins to reassure us. We take at face value what we see on paper.

We sometimes underestimate how important it is to have faith in what we can see, but we know how investing faith in something we can't see isn't always as easy. That's where intuition comes in.

You need to use and trust your intuition now. Above all, be willing to be optimistic and seek the hidden, practical advantage in any development that arises, not matter how daunting it might appear.

Even if you feel you might struggle to do any of the above, then relax. You're about to be given a very good reason to feel more hopeful where you have felt pessimistic of late. From there, the rest will be up to you as long as you're willing to trust what your deepest instincts tell you.

Also on Monday

Bring it out into the open

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Pluto from 10th to 12th April 2023. Exact 11th April

Artists know when to walk away from their masterpiece. As tempting as it might be to add another dab of paint here or there, they reach a point where they know enough is enough and further adding will risk ruining what they've worked hard to create.

In your personal world now, there is more going on than meets the eye. A need exists for you to get right to the root of a particular issue and, to do this, you're going to have to know when the time is right to cease 'adding' to it. You're going to have to dig deep within your inner wisdom to know when to step back and decide that you don't want to add any more to something that needs nothing more added to it.

This will require you to face up to a few difficult facts. Something needs to be brought out into the open and exposed – without secrecy or hidden agendas that might have been a part of it until now.

Once you're able to look at the issue objectively and fairly, you'll soon see how much easier it is to make progress and bring considerably closer a cherished goal you've long wanted to be within reach.

Wednesday 12th April

No second chances to make first impressions

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Ascendant from 12th to 15th April 2023. Exact 14th April

Do opposites attract? There is much evidence that they do. However, we know how magnets repel what doesn't suit them. In your personal world now, you need to consider how, through ways in which you're projecting yourself to others - or a particular person - you could be doing pushing away someone you ought to be closer with.

Consider how you're expressing yourself and to what extent aggression could be playing a part in what you're doing or saying. Consider also how you're projecting yourself regarding your appearance. Be honest with yourself. Does appearance mean less to you than it once did, and might you be seen in a self-defeating way?

How you're conveying or projecting yourself now is likely to be opposite to how you'd ideally like to be seen. Don't make it unnecessarily difficult for others to get to know you. Give thought to how you can present yourself more enticingly.

Thursday 20th April

Temporary Setbacks

Transiting Sun Squares your natal North Node from 20th to 22nd April 2023. Exact 21st April

It's difficult to be certain about what you want from a loving, committed future with someone special. You might feel certain that a need for genuine love and intimacy exists, but that might be all you know at this stage. You might feel as if your future path precludes you from committing to a lover or that you're destined to remain in an unsatisfactory situation until the love gods decide to give you a break and free you from it. If you're in a committed relationship, then you might feel as if you're held back while your lover pushes their life forward. If you're single, then you might feel that every time you've reached a point where a friendship can become something deeper, you-know-who gets cold feet and gives you the 'I don't want to lose a friend' spiel. These setbacks can hold you back from making wonderful things happen in your life, but only temporarily. They still offer valuable lessons that can move you forward to where your heart yearns to be. With a bit of time and patience, your destination is assured.

Your Future Beckons Loudly

Transiting Sun Squares your natal South Node from 20th to 22nd April 2023. Exact 21st April

If you sense a constant, 'one step forward, two steps backward' scenario in your love life, or moving things in a direction you want to head toward is on par with wading through waist-high wet concrete, then that could be a sign you're carrying karmic baggage from your past - or even a past life. Perhaps your parents had a loveless relationship, and you learned from their mistakes or in a past life, you made mistakes in love and experienced considerable heartache. Whatever the source of indecisiveness might be, it has encouraged you to be extra cautious in romance. This could cause you to focus so intently on what has gone wrong and might go wrong again that you're missing out on so many delightful romantic or relationship opportunities in the present and unfolding in the future. It's time to park the past, well and truly. Your future beckons loudly, and it's important you heed the call.

Monday 24th April

Smile and walk away

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Mercury from 24th to 26th April 2023. Exact 25th April

Few people love an argument. They might enjoy rising to the occasion, so to speak, but rarely is there any pleasure to be had from engaging in heated discussion or negotiation.

In your personal world now, you have a choice. You can allow yourself to be involved in an argument, intense debate or a very challenging suggestion or you can simply smile and walk away from any of the above.

Of course, doing the latter will require considerable self-control on your part as well as a reasonable amount of faith. You could even find yourself wondering if you dare ignore what appears such a demanding and bothersome issue.

It would, however, be better to detach yourself from the matter presenting itself now than pursue a long, exhausting diversion with what will ultimately prove to be a difficult - and irrelevant - option.

Sunday 30th April

Don't let fear cause an opportunity to be missed

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Sun from 30th April 2023 to 3rd May 2023. Exact 2nd May

We make predictions every day. Sometimes, we're unaware of how many we actually make. Some of these we predict accurately, particularly if we have something historical to refer to. Sometimes, we don't fare quite so well, but that needn't always be cause for consolation.

Where you feel inclined to make certain predictions in an area of your personal world now, don't believe you need to own a crystal ball or possess unique psychic abilities. Investing belief in such things is as unnecessary as investing belief in the fact that whatever it is you're predicting is doomed to failure.

Fear, trepidation or a confidence crisis could be causing you to miss a wonderful opportunity presenting itself. Don't convince yourself that, by focusing on what you believe could go wrong, you're protecting yourself. Assume all will be well, act as if all will be well and you will discover, to your delight, that all will be well.

Also on Sunday

Be flexible and spontaneous

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Mars from 30th April 2023 to 2nd May 2023. Exact 1st May

What is it 'they' say about best-laid plans? Of course, to achieve anything, each of needs a plan of some sort but sometimes, the benefits of spontaneity can be overlooked.

When we discover a plan goes awry or an unforeseen obstacle gets presented in our path, then our first reaction often involves frustration. In your personal world now, it is important you're willing to be adaptable. It's essential you don't view a change to an arrangement or situation you believed to be unchangeable as a setback or potential problem. See it instead as a gift.

An important goal is within reach. Have faith in the fact that you're being helped to achieve it, but the journey might have one or two pit stops along the way that you simply hadn't or couldn't have accounted for. The more willing you are to be spontaneous and flexible, the more you'll enjoy this particular ride.

Forecast for May 2023

Monday 1st May

Love you can depend on

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Venus from 1st to 4th May 2023. Exact 3rd May

People sometimes go to great lengths in a material sense to show their affection toward another. Flowers and chocolates are wonderful to receive but not when the recipient isn't interested in such grand and seemingly empty gestures.

What you want is a particular person to be more consistently sweeter toward you. That's all. Methods they're choosing to use are likely falling short of what you believe you want and need and, if anything, such material gestures might even be making you feel more suspicious than grateful.

You want love you can depend on and, fortunately, you're closer to attaining that than you might think.

Curiously, both your bank account and heart look set to receive a very welcome boost. In your personal world though, you can expect proof of your ability to attract affection. Prepare, very soon, to attain what you feel most desirous of or is lacking where love, romance, and intimacy are concerned.

Monday 8th May

11th

Unique Qualities Shine

Sun transits your natal 11th house from 8th May 2023 to 14th June 2023

Friends and your connection with groups could receive increased attention, and meeting and mingling could become more of a priority during the coming weeks. Pay close to attention to connections formed now – whether business or platonic – because they could be long-term relationships. Your original, unique and possibly eccentric qualities shine and the more you make yourself available socially, the more people could be attracted to your alluring personality. If you're attached, then relationships could take on a fun, impersonal vibe. You could feel stimulated by all that is unconventional - and planting a seed in the form of a wish for the future is strongly encouraged!

Thursday 11th May

Achieving Balance Gradually

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Chiron from 11th to 14th May 2023. Exact 13th May

You want to be in a stable, committed relationship, but also accept that it takes effort and commitment on both sides. You require equality in intimate relationships, and this need might stem from having been in a painful or toxic relationship in the past. You seek true partnership in love and will give whatever effort is needed to achieve it. However, you could be reminded of how it is possible to go to greater lengths than are necessary to create the harmony and balance you crave. As long as you allow plenty of breathing space in any love relationship, you can move forward gradually to creating the stability and balance you need. This gradual approach is integral to putting any past hurts or disappointments that arose from trying too hard, behind you.

Saturday 13th May

Turning heads

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Ascendant from 13th to 16th May 2023. Exact 15th May

Are you a good storyteller? Have you considered hiring yourself out to parties that need an injection of life given to them? If you're not already aware of how engaging and attractive your personality is becoming, then you will do shortly.

There is no doubt that confident people can be attractive in the eyes of many others, but you're blessed with confidence mixed with very strong powers of attraction in other ways, and these could include outgoingness and an enviable sense of light-heartedness.

There could even be a hint of competitiveness in your actions that can only add to your powers of attraction. Simply be yourself now and allow the real you to shine confidently within social circles. You're turning heads for all of the right reasons!

Monday 15th May

The danger of making assumptions

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Uranus from 15th to 17th May 2023. Exact 16th May

There's an old saying that goes 'never assume because doing so will make an ass out of you and me.' It's a somewhat clever play on the letters within the word, but we all know what problems can arise from making assumptions sometimes.

It's important you guard against certain expectations in some way now. You could be making at least one very large assumption and would be well advised not to treat anything as gospel without checking a few facts first.

A particular climate is volatile enough without being made more complicated through such errors of judgment. Don't hesitate to be a Doubting Thomas wherever possible and avoid, wherever possible, any temptation to jump to particular conclusions.

Sunday 21st May

Romantic or Relationship Goal Planning

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal North Node from 21st to 23rd May 2023. Exact 22nd May

You could feel more relaxed about the direction your life is heading and have faith in the fact that any detours will take you to where you want and need to be eventually. However, despite all that might be falling into place in other areas of your world, there could be something in your emotional world that needs a bit of effort made to improve it, or at least reassure you that it's on track to arrive where you want it to be. You could be aware of how some level of complacency has set it – on your part, or if attached, on a lover's part or possibly with both of you. Your emotional world or one special connection could benefit from the same level of aspirational planning you've given elsewhere. Don't forget how thrilling it can be to achieve romantic or relationship goals as well!

Also on Sunday

Nothing to Lose

Transiting Sun Trines your natal South Node from 21st to 23rd May 2023. Exact 22nd May

You're blessed with an ability to break old, unhelpful habits instead of remaining stuck in them forever. This is a trait that a loved one or potential partner will likely admire. You have learned much from your past and will continue to do so as you progress through life. You accept that relationships are organic and always offer something worth learning at any time – and this includes mistakes made in the past and those you're bound to make in the future. It's rare that you repeat mistakes, but if you do, then the lesson learned will be even more important. Try to bear this in mind now as you assess what you have gained and stand to gain from a close, loving relationship. Put it this way – you have nothing to lose that can't be seen as a valuable gain if seen in the right perspective.

Wednesday 24th May

Prepare for a 'Eureka Moment'

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Moon from 24th to 27th May 2023. Exact 26th May

Can you remember when you last experienced a 'Eureka Moment'?

We all have these from time to time; sudden moments of clarity that are always wonderful – and often timely – to receive.

In your personal world now, a moment of clarity is about to be experienced by you. Don't succumb to a temptation to assess certain yearnings or needs deeply. Trust that you feel what you feel because, in more than one way, what you feel suits you and you're being steered toward the attainment of a cherished personal goal.

First, you need clarity. Embrace the revelation winging its way to you and, when it arrives, you'll know precisely why it is right and what your next move should be.

Thursday 25th May

From chaos stability will come

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Saturn from 25th to 28th May 2023. Exact 27th May

Some people thrive on chaos. It spurs them on to make impressive achievements. Other people avoid chaos wherever possible. They know they get the best results from operating in structured and predictable environments.

In your personal world, you would much prefer the latter. You want something to be more efficient, stable and structured but cannot help but be painfully aware of all that seems chaotic or unpredictable.

Expect soon, to enjoy a more stable and less volatile situation. Until then, remain focused on the progress you are making in amongst the unignorable chaos!

Also on Thursday

Free yourself from a repetitive situation

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Mercury from 25th to 27th May 2023. Exact 26th May

Despite what happened yesterday, many of us will continue to do tomorrow what we did today. That's a somewhat complex way of saying we are all creatures of habit. We resent repetition on one level yet crave it on another.

In your personal world, you're presented with an opportunity to break free from a tired and tedious drama. You are no longer obliged to stick what is tried and tested or very familiar.

If you're willing to invest some effort in releasing yourself from a repetitive situation that no longer suits you, then it can be done. It won't be long before you discover how many other, more suitable options are available to you.

Friday 26th May

An investigative adventure

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Jupiter from 26th to 28th May 2023. Exact 27th May

Do you own a deerstalker hat, curved Calabash pipe, and a magnifying glass? Anyone donning or holding these items would be easily identifiable as Sherlock Holmes and, in an area of your personal world now, need exists for you to become a sleuth of some kind.

There's a need to acquire information, canvass opinion and research every aspect of a particular story. You probably have your suspicions about the outcome of your efforts but are also aware of dangers surrounding being too impulsive - or assumptive - now.

What you need to confirm requires effort on your part to uncover what needs to be uncovered or identify what is waiting to be identified. Then, once you've finished your fact-gathering exercise, you can expect to find yourself surprised and then delighted in some way with what you discover.

Wednesday 31st May

Courage will bring a positive outcome

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Sun from 31st May 2023 to 3rd June 2023. Exact 2nd June

When faced with a task or decision that doesn't exactly fill us with inspiration or confidence, we sometimes create reasons, consciously or unconsciously, to avoid or postpone it.

That's a natural reaction and doesn't mean we're weak. Life, after all, is to be enjoyed and we reserve the right to prolong for as much as we can enjoyment we're experiencing.

In an area of your personal world now, it is probably becoming clear that a difficult conversation needs to be had or an awkward fact needs to be faced. The fact that you might be postponing doing anything about either or both could stem from your belief that you've accurately pre-judged an outcome, when, in fact, you might not have.

With a tense relationship, situation or arrangement, there's more fluidity and flexibility than you think. That's why you can and ought to raise difficult topics without fear of feeling afraid, ashamed or guilty.

By taking a brave step forward, facing what needs to be faced and taking action reinforced by the belief that a positive outcome is available, you can expect to feel more confident and hopeful, very soon.

Also on Wednesday

A meeting of like minds

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal MidHeaven from 31st May 2023 to 3rd June 2023. Exact 2nd June

Confidence, we know, can be an attractive quality for someone to possess. We are drawn toward people who exude confidence and impress us with their 'make things happen' attitudes and beliefs.

Before we can feel confident though, we usually want to see some evidence of confidence having played a part in us achieving success previously. You're superbly placed now to benefit from a significant confidence boost that is bound to encourage you to look at what you have achieved and what else might be possible.

Personal success and social accomplishment are on offer. Through putting yourself in a proverbial spotlight, you will discover how much attention you attract and transforming your personal world through a linking of like minds is very possible.

Forecast for June 2023

Thursday 1st June

Let time bring a desired improvement

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Venus from 1st to 4th June 2023. Exact 3rd June

In the same way it can be difficult to remove a song embedded in our minds, it can be as equally difficult to banish thoughts or images.

In your personal world now, there is something or someone you feel very attracted to, intrigued by and excited about but banishing this thought could prove to be an exercise in futility.

However, the good news is, you don't have to make a real, concerted effort to do anything at this stage. You can afford to wait until you're in a better position to make a move.

Have faith in the fact that your situation will improve naturally over time and, where your love life is concerned, if it leaves much to be desired then have even more faith in the fact that, very soon, you can expect proof of how desired by at least one person you are.

Sunday 11th June

Ignore the voice of negativity

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Neptune from 11th to 14th June 2023. Exact 13th June

In Looney Tunes cartoons, characters often had an angel and a devil on either shoulder that only they could see. The angel would whisper positive words of advice and encouragement while the devil would delight in causing trouble by encouraging the character to do something he knew, in his heart, was wrong.

You have no angel or devil on your shoulder now but do possess instinct and intuition. Both often speak with us, but we can choose to ignore the positive voice we should be heeding and take too much notice of the one we shouldn't: the voice of negativity.

If we choose to ignore our intuition, it's often because we believe we're under too much pressure or it clearly cannot see the seriousness of a situation in ways our eyes can. We fear failure and how we might look in the eyes of others should we fail.

The voice of negativity is now drowning out the voice of inner wisdom. If you truly want to make progress in an area of your personal world now, then you need to learn to ignore negativity and take serious notice of the positive words of encouragement your inner wisdom offers. You know what plan of action is wrong and what plan of action is right. That's all you need to know.

Also on Sunday

Cut the niceties and let truth reveal itself

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Pluto from 11th to 13th June 2023. Exact 12th June

Sometimes, we hear what people say but can't help wonder what it is they really mean. Other times, we're painfully aware of how easily some people can avoid discussing a particular issue.

There are also people who want to listen but fail to grasp the concept of real, meaningful communication.

In your personal world, you're likely retracing old ground where a discussion with a particular person is concerned. Where there has been little in the way of progress previously, it is through an urgent, pressing reason presenting itself now that a need to cut niceties and exchange truth exists.

It's time for you and you-know-who to 'come clean.' Believe it is best that this has happened later than not at all and it is not too late to have the discussion that needs to be had.

Wednesday 14th June

12th

Reflect, Dream and Recharge

Sun transits your natal 12th house from 14th June 2023 to 17th July 2023

If you feel an increasingly strong urge to indulge in some quality 'you time,' then doing so could be both helpful and timely. You're encouraged to retreat, regenerate and assess attachments you have in every area of your world and consider what needs to change or improve. Seize this chance to reflect, dream away in isolation and recharge your physical and emotional batteries. Taking the time to assess situations honestly could reveal what has naturally outgrown its usefulness in your life and should be put behind you. This could be a time when natural cycles end and new cycles begin - and it might be your personal and private affairs that receive the most focus.

Saturday 24th June

Stepping back is best

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Moon from 24th to 27th June 2023. Exact 26th June

We are all, in one way or another, influenced strongly by our companions, colleagues and family members. However, we tend not to consider how influenced we are by what we believe they want from us as opposed to what they really want from us.

The boundaries of your relationship with one person - or possibly a group of people - are being redefined now. This could be causing you to fear that you're alienating yourself unnecessarily in some way yet, at the same time, it could be apparent that you involve yourself in dramas or other peoples' situations in ways you should be!

The redefining of boundaries is going to involve you to detach yourself in some way from certain others but don't succumb to a belief that the only way to remain connected as things stand presently is to involve yourself with what's happening in their worlds in ways that could justifiably be seen as inappropriate.

A shift is occurring where your relationships with key people are concerned. Step back, let what's changing unfold in its own way and time, and this will benefit you and those you're closest to.

Sunday 25th June

Shake off apathy

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Saturn from 25th to 28th June 2023. Exact 27th June

Imagine you're standing on the edge of a high diving board, peering down to the water below but have strong reservations about taking the plunge. Imagine as well that, behind you, a queue of impatient and more experienced divers wait for you to make up your mind about what you're going to do.

That analogy sums up a situation in your personal world now. You're clearly under pressure in some way to take action or make a decision yet it's important you are being pressured in the way you are because otherwise you won't make the decision or move you truly need to make.

You have a difficult dispute to solve or a complicated story to unravel yet, through a constant source of aggravation, aren't feeling inclined to consider a particular course of action. It's time to shake off apathy and seize a valuable opportunity. Like most opportunities, yours might be hidden within a perceived problem, but trust that the opportunity being presented to you now is very real.

Monday 26th June

You can rebuild it

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Jupiter from 26th to 29th June 2023. Exact 28th June

Weightlifters understand the concept that building muscle requires muscle fibers to be broken down and allowed to rebuild during a healing process. When they rebuild themselves, they are bigger, better and stronger than before.

The analogy holds some relevance in your personal world now. Something needs to be broken down and rebuilt in some way, but it is important you focus on how much better a situation or arrangement will be from having done so.

If something feels right and makes you feel confident and assured, then chances are it doesn't need much of your attention. Focus instead on what you know to be uncertain or unstable. It can be fixed provided you're willing to instigate necessary change that can both heal and strengthen what needs healing or strengthening.

Forecast for July 2023

Saturday 1st July

Don't let enthusiasm become frustration

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Mars from 1st to 4th July 2023. Exact 3rd July

Mistakes, we know, are only mistakes when we make them a second time. With that in mind, what is it that you believe yourself to be in absolutely no doubt about now?

We tend to make the most mistakes when we're overly confident. In your personal world now, you're blessed with an ability to achieve whatever it is you set your heart on achieving and are likely to discover soon (if not already) that you have more physical and mental energy available to you.

It's important you guard against enthusiasm turning to frustration if you encounter an obstacle or an individual who chooses not to be as supportive of you in some way as you wish or believe they ought to be. As confident and certain you are of something or someone, need exists to be realistic.

Leave room for flexibility. Avoid the tendency to believe you are 100her right about something you know someone else has reservations about. Their reservations could be justified and, through being willing to accept a situation could be different to what you believe it to be, you could find yourself in a necessary – and potentially wonderful – position to compromise and reach an agreement or common ground.

Sunday 2nd July

Go solo - for now

Transiting Sun Squares your natal MidHeaven from 2nd to 5th July 2023. Exact 4th July

Many of us adhere to the old saying, 'if a job's worth doing, it's worth doing properly.' An extension of this saying goes 'if a job's worth doing, then it's worth doing yourself' in the belief that, sometimes, if we want something to be done in a way we will be satisfied with, then we must undertake to do it ourselves.

In your personal world now, there is something that you ought to consider doing solo without help or intervention from others. You could be prone to negative criticism from one or two people, possibly those you believe to be authoritative in some way, who don't quite connect with what it is you're trying to achieve.

This doesn't make them or you wrong. It means you have some work to do to reassure certain people or a certain person that an ambitious plan is viable. That's why you might need to 'go it alone' for the time being to gain support and understanding where both might be unavailable now.

Monday 3rd July

Time to be brave

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Venus from 3rd to 6th July 2023. Exact 5th July

To what extent might fear of failure or rejection be preventing you from attaining what – or whom – you desire?

You know what you want yet appear to have a fear of declaring or asking for it. Perhaps, it seems easier to give just a tiny bit of yourself or your desires away than lay fully your proverbial cards on the table.

Through convincing yourself that failure or rejection are assured, you're not making the brave moves you need to. It's necessary to give full concentration and focus if you are to be successful with your secret plan.

The first thing to do surrounds making it a secret no longer. Be honest, at least with yourself. Then, make a heartfelt and concerted effort to reach for what (or who) you love.

Wednesday 12th July

A storm in a teacup

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Pluto from 12th to 15th July 2023. Exact 14th July

We understand that the bark of some dogs is more of an issue than their bite. We also know how some people can talk incessantly or authoritatively but actually say very little.

Somewhere in your personal world, an annoying point of conflict is making itself known, or presence felt. It intends to ensure you take it seriously and won't take kindly to being ignored.

You, on the other hand, have the upper hand. While the issue is keen to ensure it receives the attention it deserves, you have a choice about how much of an issue you want it to be and how much of your time and attention you believe it deserves.

By all means, acknowledge the issue but see it for what it really is – a mere storm in a proverbial tea cup.

Thursday 13th July

Important Aims

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Chiron from 13th to 16th July 2023. Exact 14th July

You could be finely tuned-in to who you are, what you can offer a relationship but also what you want from it. Your cherished aspirations don't need to move down your priority list when you embark upon a new romance. You've learned to integrate the two to make them work together previously and finding or enhancing a romantic connection is only one of your important aims in life. You could be reminded at this time of the need for a lover who respects your choices and interests, and who will give you the necessary space to push forward in life and achieve all that you want to achieve. If you're with such a person, then it could be helpful and timely to update them on what matters most to you, aspiration-wise. If you're single, then you could adjust your Partner Requirement List accordingly!

Saturday 15th July

Attracting confidence

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Ascendant from 15th to 18th July 2023. Exact 16th July

The list of what people find attractive in others is a long one. Beauty, we understand, is skin deep. Remove such attraction from the list and what are left with? Confidence, for example, can be very attractive.

It is confidence you're showing now that could be your most attractive asset, but it needs to be used responsibly. In the same way pepper can enhance the taste of a stew, too much often spoils it. By all means, exert the justified confidence you feel but guard against coming across too strong or bullying.

Progress in your personal world can be made through attracting certain others in specific ways. If you appear assured, then you can trust that you will be sending out very much the right kind of signal.

Once done, you could be surprised at how magnetic you are to those you'd like to be closer to and who are keen to be closer to you.

Sunday 16th July

Embrace the chaos

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Uranus from 16th to 19th July 2023. Exact 18th July

Sometimes, when we become aware of a need to 'sort something out,' we discover there could be benefits to going above the call of duty and making a situation more chaotic or disrupted to sort it out properly.

The same can be said about an area of your personal world now. Allow chaos trying to present itself to do so. Embrace the unusual, the unpredictable or even what appears downright disruptive. We lead lives that tend to be very orderly and predictable. You're being encouraged to allow and accept disruption in your world now and look likely to be grateful for it.

It's time to alter a situation, arrangement or agreement that has been stale and static for too long. Be willing to invite some chaos and, once the proverbial dust settles, you look set to make more than one valuable discovery.

Monday 17th July

1st

Confidently Sexy

Sun transits your natal 1st house from 17th July 2023 to 9th August 2023

When you look in a mirror, do you see the same person others see? You're blessed with a noticeable increase to your confidence now, and this can have a powerful knock-on effect to how you project and convey yourself to the world. It can also make you extremely appealing in the eyes of others – or one person in particular. If the urge to take a calculated risk grows strong, then connect with your spontaneous side. You never know what a bit of bravery, self-assertion, and directness will bring you. You can also be certain that your keenness to take the initiative or allow your leadership qualities to shine will attract the right kind of attention!

Saturday 22nd July

Supportive or Hampering

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal North Node from 22nd to 25th July 2023. Exact 24th July

Don't consider abandoning your most cherished aspirations in order to focus solely on supporting a loved one to achieve theirs. There's no reason at all why you can't pursue yours as well, especially if they were important to you before you met your special person. However, this could be a time when you give deeper thought to how you can balance a love relationship with personal goals. You understand the importance of moving forward into the future meant for you, and if a relationship hampers rather than supports this, then you might need to reassess its future. You refuse to waste time dwelling on the past because there's so much you yearn to experience and accomplish. If you're single, then your passion for your plans can attract admirers who find your enthusiasm contagious and creative energy extremely attractive. However, you too could be strict about whether a relationship supports or acts as a ball and chain to progress.

Also on Saturday

Destinies in Tandem

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal South Node from 22nd to 25th July 2023. Exact 24th July

You know where your life is heading, and that's something to be appreciated now where affairs of the heart are concerned. However, you might have a tiny hurdle to overcome at this time if you're determined to follow your life's direction and move forward, but a loved one or potential partner wants you to head in a direction they have in mind. This is a time to stick with your commitment to yourself and your destiny. Either a partner will follow your example and release pressure on you to do things their way, or you'll find a way to blend their goals well with your own. If both options fail, then the answer is to find someone who takes their personal life destiny as seriously as you do.

Wednesday 26th July

Clarity is coming

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Mercury from 26th to 29th July 2023. Exact 28th July

Coming developments in your world will do much to please you. Where you have been focused intently on a complex issue and trying to understand the implications of it, you're about to discover what you believed to be complex is more straightforward than you thought.

As your confidence returns and you begin to apply imagination and ingenuity to your current relationship issue, you will soon be able to distinguish between what truly matters and needs attention and what doesn't.

Clarity, in one form or another, is coming. Give it a chance to arrive and, when it does, you'll soon find yourself blessed with the energy you'll need make happen what your heart dearly wants to see happen.

Also on Wednesday

Taking the initiative

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Moon from 26th to 28th July 2023. Exact 27th July

We learn from a young age that, if we don't 'ask,' we don't 'get.'

It becomes clear that some level of proactivity and possibly even imagination are needed if we're to make something happen. It also becomes clear that, sometimes, we need to remove ourselves from comfort zones, even if doing so makes us feel uncomfortable or have to face one or two difficult facts doing so.

As much as you would prefer not to rock a proverbial boat and simply accept rather than question a situation now, if you do not already see evidence of a need to take the initiative and bring change where it is needed, then you will do, soon enough.

Turning the other cheek, avoiding confrontation wherever possible or doing anything for a quiet and easy life are admirable traits, but they're not always practical. It's time to summon courage and take a brave step forward where a certain situation or individual is concerned. Where a relaxed attitude has been helpful so far, the time has come to put your foot down and send a clear message that you can choose to take the initiative when you know you must.

Thursday 27th July

Trusting instincts in the absence of facts

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Saturn from 27th to 29th July 2023. Exact 28th July

When a need to be decisive presents itself, then the process tends to be considerably easier when we believe we have all or at least enough facts to assist with the decision.

If we don't have enough facts, then what happens? That depends on how urgently we must make our decision but, more often than not, we call upon our instincts to assist us.

In your personal world now, there exists a need for you to trust your deepest instinct in the absence of factual information. Take at face value to a point what you're seeing or are being encouraged to accept is real.

Far better progress will be made if you're willing to trust what you're telling yourself. Do that, and then pursue the decision that needs to be made with all your heart.

Friday 28th July

Remain on the side-lines

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Jupiter from 28th to 30th July 2023. Exact 29th July

It can be frustrating when we believe ourselves able to see what someone else cannot. A way forward might be crystal clear to us yet, for some reason, someone else simply cannot connect with it.

When this happens, some people feel inclined to take the reins and control of a situation, hoping to guide the person they believe to be misguided or oblivious to the right decision or destination.

Avoid a tendency now to believe you know what's best for others or a certain person in your world. By all means, show understanding, be willing to be supportive and compassionate but consider the fact that some people have their own agendas and are determined to stick with them.

That doesn't make either of you 'wrong' but, as much as you might believe yourself to be best placed to provide guidance or encourage someone to reconsider a belief, you could gain so much more now from stepping back and letting others do what suits them.

Forecast for August 2023

Wednesday 2nd August

A precious gift is on offer

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Sun from 2nd to 5th August 2023. Exact 4th August

Customer Service counters in stores are often busy with people returning unwanted items. Sometimes, some of what it is returned are unwanted gifts.

Perhaps, if the recipient of the gift allowed more time to see its relevance or usefulness, they wouldn't have been quite so quick to dismiss it.

In an area of your personal world now, you're being presented with a gift of some sort, but this is unlikely to take the form of something in wrapping paper bound with ribbon. In fact, it's likely you won't see what you're being presented with as a gift at all and could be inclined to see it as an obstacle, setback or something unwanted.

If you're experiencing the latter, then it's important to look closely at what important lesson is being made available to you or what – or whom – you're being encouraged to move on from.

Embrace understanding, clarity, and appreciation of what and who truly matters in life coming your way now. As far as gifts go, receiving all of the above is precious and will ultimately be something you'll be forever grateful for.

Also on Wednesday

No shrinking violets

Transiting Sun Trines your natal MidHeaven from 2nd to 5th August 2023. Exact 4th August

A little bit of praise, we know, can go a long way. Praise, when we know we deserve it, can do much to boost our confidence levels and encourage us to think more about what else we might be capable of.

In an area of your personal world now, you're well placed to receive praise and recognition, and this can only spur you on to want to achieve more.

If you're willing to back up your words with action, then some form of personal success is assured. You probably don't have to force issues and could be surprised at how accepted you and what you're proposing or suggesting are.

This is a time to make clear to certain others - or one person in particular - what you truly want. Don't be a shrinking violet. Aim high, and you'll be delighted with responses you receive.

Wednesday 9th August

The Best Things in Life…

Sun transits your natal 2nd house from 9th August 2023 to 4th September 2023

What does the word, 'security' conjure in your mind? You could equate it with sums of money in bank accounts or material possessions. However, your attitude toward what you own, don't own and personal values are likely to receive considerable focus now and during the next few weeks. It will also be important to assess honestly the lengths you either go to or are considering going to financially to impress a certain person. Before you decide to make an extravagant material gesture to sweep someone off their feet or make clear how much they mean to you, there are ways of doing both that don't cost a single penny. One heartfelt, loving gesture or message of love could have a more profound impact than anything money can create. Give that some thought before you splash any cash or embark upon a costly romantic plan.

Saturday 12th August

Don't succumb to 'que sera sera'

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Pluto from 12th to 15th August 2023. Exact 14th August

Are you in control of a particular outcome or do you feel as if 'whatever will be, will be'?

Even if it feels as if unseen forces are at work to encourage you toward a particular outcome, and you have no option other than to allow yourself to end up wherever it is you're going to end up, it is essential that you have absolute faith in the fact that you do possess the ability to influence a situation that (understandably) gives the impression of being immovable or inflexible.

In your personal world, it is time to overcome a fear. Once done, you will be superbly placed to take control of whatever has appeared to control you and then turn a daunting situation into one that becomes much more inspiring.

Sunday 13th August

Reasons to be hopeful

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Neptune from 13th to 16th August 2023. Exact 15th August

If we're presented with paper money in any currency, provided we're reassured it's genuine then we're willing to accept it's worth what we understand it to be worth. We don't need to see the same value in coins to reassure us. We take at face value what we see on paper.

We sometimes underestimate how important it is to have faith in what we can see, but we know how investing faith in something we can't see isn't always as easy. That's where intuition comes in.

You need to use and trust your intuition now. Above all, be willing to be optimistic and seek the hidden, practical advantage in any development that arises, not matter how daunting it might appear.

Even if you feel you might struggle to do any of the above, then relax. You're about to be given a very good reason to feel more hopeful where you have felt pessimistic of late. From there, the rest will be up to you as long as you're willing to trust what your deepest instincts tell you.

Also on Sunday

Don't Kid Yourself

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Chiron from 13th to 16th August 2023. Exact 15th August

You could be subconsciously attracted to relationships that present a challenge at this time. Where you might have chosen to embark only upon short-term relationships in the belief that, the shorter the relationship is, the cleaner the break will be when it ends. This attitude might have been formed due to painful or upsetting episodes that occurred in the past. However, it could become clear that short-term flings offer little or no depth of connection. Don't kid yourself into believing you're immune to the joy that comes from a deep, meaningful, loving and intimate connection. You could find yourself assessing new ways to make long-term relationships work. The first step involves releasing yourself from past hurts that offer only a lesson to be absorbed and moved on from. Now it a perfect time to start that 'moving on' process.

Thursday 17th August

Push is coming to shove

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Uranus from 17th to 19th August 2023. Exact 18th August

Somewhere in your personal world, 'push' is about to meet 'shove.' It is only a matter of time before both come together.

You have the option to wait and see what happens when these two collide. Like any collision, there's a very strong possibility you'll not find the experience pleasurable to view or be part of.

That's why it's important you see the signs, smell the coffee or and read writing on the proverbial wall. You can bring about a change that will alleviate much of the potential stress or damage in a relationship by taking action before you're left with no alternative other than to accept what's likely to occur.

Take control and allow yourself to feel more powerful. You can do it and, when you do, you'll discover how powerful and influential you really are.

Forecast for September 2023

Saturday 2nd September

Be flexible and spontaneous

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Mars from 2nd to 4th September 2023. Exact 3rd September

What is it 'they' say about best-laid plans? Of course, to achieve anything, each of needs a plan of some sort but sometimes, the benefits of spontaneity can be overlooked.

When we discover a plan goes awry or an unforeseen obstacle gets presented in our path, then our first reaction often involves frustration. In your personal world now, it is important you're willing to be adaptable. It's essential you don't view a change to an arrangement or situation you believed to be unchangeable as a setback or potential problem. See it instead as a gift.

An important goal is within reach. Have faith in the fact that you're being helped to achieve it, but the journey might have one or two pit stops along the way that you simply hadn't or couldn't have accounted for. The more willing you are to be spontaneous and flexible, the more you'll enjoy this particular ride.

Sunday 3rd September

Inspiration is all that you require

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Venus from 3rd to 6th September 2023. Exact 5th September

What do most people believe would make them happy or happier? More money? A more satisfying love life?

The process you're blessed with experiencing now intends to bring considerably more comfort to your world and, where your relationship with a particular individual is concerned, inspiration is on offer.

From that will come all else you require. This also includes some good, old-fashioned luck, too. If you're willing to take a small and seemingly insignificant advantage and turn into something bigger by using ingenuity and trusting your instincts, then something heart-warmingly wonderful can occur. Have faith in your ability to do 'what's right' - and this includes being in the right place at the right time! Expect soon, to turn a precarious situation into a very pleasing one.

Monday 4th September

3rd

Unrestrained Communication

Sun transits your natal 3rd house from 4th September 2023 to 5th October 2023

Although you could find you learn much from your interactions with others, particularly family members, you could also consider how you interact with others, or one person in particular, in a relationship sense. More than one revelation could arrive regarding how and why you interact with a partner or potential partners in the ways you do. This could be a time when you accept that being understood by someone you are close to - or yearn to be closer to - requires unrestrained communication. This doesn't just make conversation more interesting. It is essential to someone understanding your thoughts related to your intimate needs, and if you can't convey these verbally, then there are numerous other options available to you. (When's the last time you wrote a heartfelt love letter?)

Wednesday 13th September

Ignore drama and exaggeration

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Neptune from 13th to 16th September 2023. Exact 15th September

To prove a point, we sometimes feel the need to go to great lengths. We believe it necessary to inject some drama or exaggeration to illustrate how important a particular issue or belief is to us.

Drama and exaggeration do little to convince others of our belief levels. Often, they'd prefer we were less dramatic or prone to exaggeration!

That's why, in your personal world now, you need to refrain from going 'over the top' regarding making a particular point. If you can separate fact from the fantasy that is being nurtured now, then you can make your point with clarity and not be at risk of being seen as unrealistic or having no true grasp of what you ought to be more certain of.

The same applies to a fearful fantasy, should you be nurturing of those instead. Much is being distorted now and the more you can be realistic and pragmatic, the less stress you'll encourage to come your way.

Also on Wednesday

Love You've Dreamed Of

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Chiron from 13th to 16th September 2023. Exact 15th September

You're blessed with an ability to judge peoples' character accurately. However, even if someone ticked all the essential boxes and reassured you they were worth risking your heart with in the past, you can't have accounted for certain traits that arose further down the line. It's these that might have led to you experiencing pain in previous relationships and made you wary about committing in the future. Fortunately, you could find yourself adopting more of an open mind to relationships and commitments now. You know someone is deserving of your love, and hopefully you're with such a person. If so, then you could feel willing to cross a line of commitment that you've chosen to remain behind for reasons outlined earlier. If you're single, then you deserve to be fussy about who you choose to give your heart to. Either way, you're in a superb position to find long-term, stable, committed love you've always dreamed of. All that's needed is an open mind, an open heart and the courage to put any past pain well and truly behind you.

Friday 15th September

Turning heads

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Ascendant from 15th to 18th September 2023. Exact 17th September

Are you a good storyteller? Have you considered hiring yourself out to parties that need an injection of life given to them? If you're not already aware of how engaging and attractive your personality is becoming, then you will do shortly.

There is no doubt that confident people can be attractive in the eyes of many others, but you're blessed with confidence mixed with very strong powers of attraction in other ways, and these could include outgoingness and an enviable sense of light-heartedness.

There could even be a hint of competitiveness in your actions that can only add to your powers of attraction. Simply be yourself now and allow the real you to shine confidently within social circles. You're turning heads for all of the right reasons!

Sunday 17th September

A turning point, not a backward step

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Uranus from 17th to 19th September 2023. Exact 18th September

There are times when we have no option other than to push a point. We are all capable of accepting or tolerating a situation to a certain point and then it becomes clear that something must 'give.'

Within your personal world now, you could be increasingly aware of how you might have been too quick to reject something - or someone – you previously felt so able to accept. This is causing you to doubt your judgment about a particular matter and possibly believe yourself to be illogical, impractical or inconsistent.

It's important to understand that you have finally reached a turning point in some way regarding an agreement or arrangement. It's also important that you believe this is extremely positive and worth celebrating, not a cause for consolation.

Friday 22nd September

Romantic or Relationship Goal Planning

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal North Node from 22nd to 25th September 2023. Exact 24th September

You could feel more relaxed about the direction your life is heading and have faith in the fact that any detours will take you to where you want and need to be eventually. However, despite all that might be falling into place in other areas of your world, there could be something in your emotional world that needs a bit of effort made to improve it, or at least reassure you that it's on track to arrive where you want it to be. You could be aware of how some level of complacency has set it – on your part, or if attached, on a lover's part or possibly with both of you. Your emotional world or one special connection could benefit from the same level of aspirational planning you've given elsewhere. Don't forget how thrilling it can be to achieve romantic or relationship goals as well!

Also on Friday

Nothing to Lose

Transiting Sun Trines your natal South Node from 22nd to 25th September 2023. Exact 24th September

You're blessed with an ability to break old, unhelpful habits instead of remaining stuck in them forever. This is a trait that a loved one or potential partner will likely admire. You have learned much from your past and will continue to do so as you progress through life. You accept that relationships are organic and always offer something worth learning at any time – and this includes mistakes made in the past and those you're bound to make in the future. It's rare that you repeat mistakes, but if you do, then the lesson learned will be even more important. Try to bear this in mind now as you assess what you have gained and stand to gain from a close, loving relationship. Put it this way – you have nothing to lose that can't be seen as a valuable gain if seen in the right perspective.

Tuesday 26th September

Let go to create necessary space

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Moon from 26th to 28th September 2023. Exact 27th September

Some people make plans. They then, for whatever reason, believe the plans they made need back-up plans in case original plans fail. Then, they decide backup plans need contingency plans. Such a process could go on indefinitely but is such effort really needed?

Somewhere in your personal world, there is a gift that needs to be embraced and enjoyed, not grabbed and rationed. You're under considerable pressure to be more than one place at once, solve every problem in an instant, control every aspect of your environment, please one person, influence another and prove something to someone else.

It's understandable you should feel so inclined to show strength, be the 'fixer,' the winner or the judge. Do you really want all of that? Is it not fair to say that all you truly want is to be happy, comfortable and calm?

You can achieve all three provided you're willing to let go of so much you feel obliged to retain or regain control of. If you create space by letting go of what or whom needs letting go of, then you will soon see how quickly that space is filled with something or someone so much more suitable.

Wednesday 27th September

Free yourself from a repetitive situation

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Mercury from 27th to 29th September 2023. Exact 28th September

Despite what happened yesterday, many of us will continue to do tomorrow what we did today. That's a somewhat complex way of saying we are all creatures of habit. We resent repetition on one level yet crave it on another.

In your personal world, you're presented with an opportunity to break free from a tired and tedious drama. You are no longer obliged to stick what is tried and tested or very familiar.

If you're willing to invest some effort in releasing yourself from a repetitive situation that no longer suits you, then it can be done. It won't be long before you discover how many other, more suitable options are available to you.

No cutting corners

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Saturn from 27th to 29th September 2023. Exact 28th September

We crave predictability and then, at times, abhor it. We accept the need for order and structure in our world yet so many of us resist or oppose it.

Many in the scientific world will confirm that 'all things happen for a reason.' Any action always causes a reaction, and we can all identify times in our lives when we undertook tasks 'properly' or 'by the book.' That's because we understood that, to do something properly, we need to take it one step at a time and ensure one step has been done properly before embarking on the next step.

That sums up a situation in your personal world now. There's no point in thinking you can run before you can walk. Neither is there a need to go to extremes to make a point. You don't need to give more effort to a cause, situation or arrangement than you know is absolutely necessary. What matters is you understand the need to do something properly, slowly and in the way it is supposed to be done.

Resist any temptation to cut corners, give what effort is needed and all will be fine.

Thursday 28th September

Some things cannot and will not be hurried

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Jupiter from 28th to 30th September 2023. Exact 29th September

It doesn't matter how much we shout at a tiny chute or seedling emerging from the ground, demanding it hurries up and grows. It has its own plan and fully intends to do what it wants and needs to do in its own time and way.

In your personal world now, what is it that you wish would 'hurry up' or manifest in ways that perhaps suit you only? Ask yourself why you feel so impatient or are possibly lacking in confidence.

You're better prepared for what's unfolding in an area of your personal world than you perhaps believe yourself to be. Refuse to doubt yourself, trust your judgment and allow your inner confidence to shine. You've every reason now to trust what you've learned from previous experience and not succumb to a perceived need that you are in need of assistance or guidance.

Let what's happening now continue to progress, and you'll soon see how ideal it is for you.

Forecast for October 2023

Monday 2nd October

Calm after the storm

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Mars from 2nd to 5th October 2023. Exact 4th October

The interesting and helpful thing about most storms is, we have some idea they're coming. We're often given some degree of warning, even if that warning is at short notice.

In your personal world now, a storm is undoubtedly brewing, but it's one that you're very prepared for. You needn't be concerned about its strength or any likelihood of being blown off course.

Expect, once the proverbial skies clear, to see how safer and stronger you are. Where your relationships with certain people or one person, in particular, are concerned, you're about to see reasons why you don't have to be everywhere at once and going to great lengths to please or placate those who demand you should.

The one person who truly deserves effort you're prepared to give to please them is you. Once you return to focusing more on this, much in your world will become plain sailing, once again.

Tuesday 3rd October

Courage will bring a positive outcome

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Sun from 3rd to 6th October 2023. Exact 5th October

When faced with a task or decision that doesn't exactly fill us with inspiration or confidence, we sometimes create reasons, consciously or unconsciously, to avoid or postpone it.

That's a natural reaction and doesn't mean we're weak. Life, after all, is to be enjoyed and we reserve the right to prolong for as much as we can enjoyment we're experiencing.

In an area of your personal world now, it is probably becoming clear that a difficult conversation needs to be had or an awkward fact needs to be faced. The fact that you might be postponing doing anything about either or both could stem from your belief that you've accurately pre-judged an outcome, when, in fact, you might not have.

With a tense relationship, situation or arrangement, there's more fluidity and flexibility than you think. That's why you can and ought to raise difficult topics without fear of feeling afraid, ashamed or guilty.

By taking a brave step forward, facing what needs to be faced and taking action reinforced by the belief that a positive outcome is available, you can expect to feel more confident and hopeful, very soon.

Also on Tuesday

Seek a win/win situation

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal MidHeaven from 3rd to 6th October 2023. Exact 5th October

Opinions are like various parts of our anatomy. Everyone has one.

How vehemently we cling to opinions depends much on our personalities but, in an area of your personal world now, you're likely to see how vehemently a certain person is willing to cling to one of theirs - and they, in turn, could see how much belief you have in one of yours!

A clash is likely between you and a certain person. Clashes are natural and sometimes necessary. They help us to reach agreements we might not have reached otherwise but flexibility and compromise are essential if progress is to be made between you and other.

Thursday 5th October

Self-Created Security

Sun transits your natal 4th house from 5th October 2023 to 10th November 2023

Matters related to your home or family could receive the most focus and enhancing comfort levels within either or both will help you to feel more secure emotionally. However, whether single or attached, you could find your mind is cast back constantly to the past, particularly to previous relationships. Is there a pattern you can identify to the type of person you attract or become involved with? Is it love that draws you to a particular person or the sense of security they offer? Perhaps, your attitude toward relationships reflects your parents' relationship. This is a time to look deep within yourself to answers to such questions. Always remember that the ability to enhance your present and future security must come from within you, not someone else.

Friday 13th October

Allow inner strength to overcome vulnerability

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Pluto from 13th to 16th October 2023. Exact 15th October

Are you feeling particularly sensitive now? Vulnerable? Emotionally volatile? If the answer to any or all of these is 'yes,' then that's good news.

You're about to invest a bit more faith in what your intuition is trying to tell you than you might be used to investing. If you're willing to push aside fear, guilt or any tendency to feel panic stricken or needy, then you'll soon hear, very clearly, what the message is from deep within yourself.

A decision doesn't need weighing up in the extensive ways you might feel inclined to offer it. You know what it is you need to do, but fear and uncertainty could be distorting the message in the same way a de-tuned television or radio is unhelpful.

You are right to expect tender moments and feelings of being unprotected or vulnerable. Make sure guilt, shame, embarrassment or fear play no part in what you're feeling though. Any attention they're given is misplaced, and the inner strength you're gaining now will ensure, very soon, that they play no part in what – and whom – you're now confirming does play an integral role in your future needs.

Also on Friday

Push aside passion

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Neptune from 13th to 16th October 2023. Exact 15th October

Is there an invisible clock ticking away somewhere that makes you feel you're under unnecessary pressure? Perhaps the clock you're focused so intently on is far from invisible.

Regardless of pressure you might feel obliged to succumb to in an area of your personal world, take a moment to breathe deeply and make an effort to proceed slowly. By giving in to pressure now, you risk compromising your ability to make incisive and accurate judgments. This, in turn, is likely to cause you to prolong a process that needn't be dragged out.

It's fair to say you have strong feelings about a situation or individual. Powerful passions often create some level of confusion. Do your very best to push aside passion for the time being. What's needed is clarity and if you allow it to come, then it will. Once it does, you'll be much better placed to trust the new understanding and act on it wisely, not hastily.

Monday 16th October

No second chances to make first impressions

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Ascendant from 16th to 18th October 2023. Exact 17th October

Do opposites attract? There is much evidence that they do. However, we know how magnets repel what doesn't suit them. In your personal world now, you need to consider how, through ways in which you're projecting yourself to others - or a particular person - you could be doing pushing away someone you ought to be closer with.

Consider how you're expressing yourself and to what extent aggression could be playing a part in what you're doing or saying. Consider also how you're projecting yourself regarding your appearance. Be honest with yourself. Does appearance mean less to you than it once did, and might you be seen in a self-defeating way?

How you're conveying or projecting yourself now is likely to be opposite to how you'd ideally like to be seen. Don't make it unnecessarily difficult for others to get to know you. Give thought to how you can present yourself more enticingly.

Monday 23th October

Temporary Setbacks

Transiting Sun Squares your natal North Node from 23rd to 26th October 2023. Exact 25th October

It's difficult to be certain about what you want from a loving, committed future with someone special. You might feel certain that a need for genuine love and intimacy exists, but that might be all you know at this stage. You might feel as if your future path precludes you from committing to a lover or that you're destined to remain in an unsatisfactory situation until the love gods decide to give you a break and free you from it. If you're in a committed relationship, then you might feel as if you're held back while your lover pushes their life forward. If you're single, then you might feel that every time you've reached a point where a friendship can become something deeper, you-know-who gets cold feet and gives you the 'I don't want to lose a friend' spiel. These setbacks can hold you back from making wonderful things happen in your life, but only temporarily. They still offer valuable lessons that can move you forward to where your heart yearns to be. With a bit of time and patience, your destination is assured.

Also on Monday

Your Future Beckons Loudly

Transiting Sun Squares your natal South Node from 23rd to 26th October 2023. Exact 25th October

If you sense a constant, 'one step forward, two steps backward' scenario in your love life, or moving things in a direction you want to head toward is on par with wading through waist-high wet concrete, then that could be a sign you're carrying karmic baggage from your past - or even a past life. Perhaps your parents had a loveless relationship, and you learned from their mistakes or in a past life, you made mistakes in love and experienced considerable heartache. Whatever the source of indecisiveness might be, it has encouraged you to be extra cautious in romance. This could cause you to focus so intently on what has gone wrong and might go wrong again that you're missing out on so many delightful romantic or relationship opportunities in the present and unfolding in the future. It's time to park the past, well and truly. Your future beckons loudly, and it's important you heed the call.

Friday 27th October

Smile and walk away

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Mercury from 27th to 29th October 2023. Exact 28th October

Few people love an argument. They might enjoy rising to the occasion, so to speak, but rarely is there any pleasure to be had from engaging in heated discussion or negotiation.

In your personal world now, you have a choice. You can allow yourself to be involved in an argument, intense debate or a very challenging suggestion or you can simply smile and walk away from any of the above.

Of course, doing the latter will require considerable self-control on your part as well as a reasonable amount of faith. You could even find yourself wondering if you dare ignore what appears such a demanding and bothersome issue.

It would, however, be better to detach yourself from the matter presenting itself now than pursue a long, exhausting diversion with what will ultimately prove to be a difficult - and irrelevant - option.

Forecast Until 7th November 2023

Thursday 2nd November

Don't let fear cause an opportunity to be missed

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Sun from 2nd to 5th November 2023. Exact 4th November

We make predictions every day. Sometimes, we're unaware of how many we actually make. Some of these we predict accurately, particularly if we have something historical to refer to. Sometimes, we don't fare quite so well, but that needn't always be cause for consolation.

Where you feel inclined to make certain predictions in an area of your personal world now, don't believe you need to own a crystal ball or possess unique psychic abilities. Investing belief in such things is as unnecessary as investing belief in the fact that whatever it is you're predicting is doomed to failure.

Fear, trepidation or a confidence crisis could be causing you to miss a wonderful opportunity presenting itself. Don't convince yourself that, by focusing on what you believe could go wrong, you're protecting yourself. Assume all will be well, act as if all will be well and you will discover, to your delight, that all will be well.

Also on Thursday

Harnessing power available to you

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Mars from 2nd to 4th November 2023. Exact 3rd November

People sometimes speak about atmosphere's being or feeling 'electric.' In your personal world now, it's likely you could experience a few flying sparks.

Trust that the energy available to you now is extremely positive and is intended to help. You have, at your disposal, the ability to repair much of what needs repairing as far as relationships, situations, and arrangements with others are concerned. You are blessed with an ability to improve much in your own world while, at the same time, the world of others - or a certain person to whom you are close or want to be closer to.

The more constructively you use the power and influence available to you now, the more of both you will discover you have available to you.

Friday 3rd November

Time to be brave

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Venus from 3rd to 6th November 2023. Exact 5th November

To what extent might fear of failure or rejection be preventing you from attaining what – or whom – you desire?

You know what you want yet appear to have a fear of declaring or asking for it. Perhaps, it seems easier to give just a tiny bit of yourself or your desires away than lay fully your proverbial cards on the table.

Through convincing yourself that failure or rejection are assured, you're not making the brave moves you need to. It's necessary to give full concentration and focus if you are to be successful with your secret plan.

The first thing to do surrounds making it a secret no longer. Be honest, at least with yourself. Then, make a heartfelt and concerted effort to reach for what (or who) you love.
