How Committed Are You?
Last week was all about love. This week, the astrology is asking a slightly harder question: how committed are you?
Venus is still retrograde in Scorpio, going back over our relationships and our relationship with money. But now the heavyweights are joining in. Pluto, Saturn and Mars all have something to say, and most of it lands on one day, Friday October 16.
Pluto is moving forward again
Pluto has been retrograde since spring in the Northern Hemisphere (autumn if you&rs

Expect to be extra busy over the next four weeks as the Sun goes through your solar 3rd house. Itβs a time when you can expect to be making lots of little quick trips, hither and thither.

Do you need to brush up your skills? If there is someone who hasnβt been getting your message, this is the time to re-explain yourself. -

As the Sun slips into your 12th house today, you get to slip into the Twilight Zone. Well, sort of. The Sun goes through this part of your chart once a year. As it does so, you can expect to feel a little more like staying at home and contemplating either your navel, or your life, or both. And that is just fine. Take it easy on yourself today and over the next four weeks. Itβs an excellent time to get some rest, explore the esoteric and listen to your dreams. Also see if there are events from -

Today marks the start of a four-week period when any study, travel or self-improvement courses you undertake will be particularly well-starred. Try not to do any of these things alone if you can help it β itβs not the time to retreat from the world. Overall, the skies suggest that the main thing you need to be doing now and for the next month is looking for ways to expand your world view, whether you do that by actually getting away, by studying, reading, seeing foreign films and/or getting -

As the Sun moves into your 5th solar house, itβs as though the Universe is issuing you with an edict which will be valid for one month β enjoy yourself! The 5th house is where we have fun, where we keep our inner child. Itβs also the part of our charts related to our creative sides β indulge that part of you now. Children can also be expected to be more in your focus now (your own or someone elseβs) β at the very least, learn from them if youβve forgotten how to enjoy yourself. Som -

Today the Sun moves out of your sign and into your 2nd house β many of you may feel a bit of a drop in power levels, as though someone has turned down your wattage. Thatβs fine and nothing to worry about. Itβs just that the Sun has moved out of your sign for another year, so life will feel less like itβs being lived under the harsh glare of a spotlight; life should feel less intense; you now get a chance to catch you breath. Breathe! Over the next four weeks, as this shift takes place, i -

Your personal life is now in the spotlight, so expect the spend the next four weeks doing some deep thinking about your past and how it got you to where you are now. Family issues β your parents, in particular, but all family β are now likely to take centre stage. If you need to reconnect with them, this is the time to do it, even if it means only getting on the phone and/or hooking up the web cam. Your actual home is also in focus now β look at how happy you are with where you live, how y -

Over the next four weeks, you can expect to feel a whole lot more in touch with your Inner Self. Itβs a very good time to look at where you are going and what it is inside you that is leading you there. If youβre confused about why you have chosen your current path, this is the time to stop and think. You may soon be able to change directions. On a less ethereal note, this is also the time to have a look at your finances β what you owe, what youβre saving. Pay off as many debts as you ca -

The Sun today moves into your 10th house β thatβs the part of your chart connected to your career and reputation. You can expect to start feeling a whole lot more ambitious β at the very least, you need to use the coming four weeks to think about the direction your career and/or life is headed in and if youβre happy with that. If not, then the next New Moon brings your chance for change. If you know youβre being asked to do more than you can manage at the moment, donβt be afraid to s -

Big changes are on the horizon. Before big changes happen, it’s normal to go through a period of doubt, confusion and overthinking things. If this is what you’re experiencing now, then you are right on time. The fact is, you’re undergoing a process of change you’ve never experienced and it’s big! You, your life direction and your professional path are all being shaken up now! Give yourself time to think because you are not who you once were! Venus is still retrograd -

It may be easy to forget that Uranus, the planet of change and awakenings was in your sign for many years. If you’re resisting the changes that are happening now, then you may need to wonder if you learned Uranus’ lessons. They are; if you don’t choose change, then change chooses you and then you have no choice. Changes are easier to embrace when you put yourself in the drivers seat, so be sure to put both hands on the wheel. Venus is still retrograde, so if it feels like your -

Mars, your patron planet, is at the very top of your solar horoscope. Due to a retrograde phase in the next few months, this is going to be a longer than usual cycle. So while you may feel pressured to make decisions or progress, there is also a bigger picture perspective to consider and that is; are you pushing for progress for progresses sake right now? If so, take your time and think about what you believe. Your beliefs could be holding you back. Venus is still retrograde, so if it feels like -

For every problem there is a solution. In every solution you may also find another problem. Them’s the breaks for you right now. That said though, when you can go with the flow as much as you possibly can, things will begin to work in your favour once again. For now, it’s also important for you to take care of your health and wellbeing as you flip flop from problem to solution and back again. This will last for a while yet! Venus is still retrograde, so if it feels like your love lif -

You are known for your tendency to be geared toward your family and domestic life. This tends to be highlighted when the Sun arrives in Libra and your Home Zone. With the Sun almost about to move, you may be wondering if you missed your chance. You haven’t. Fortunately, you’ll get the chance to revisit happiness and joy on the home front that you may not have got in recent weeks. The chance to do something twice is the chance to do it better.

It’s not easy when you’re guiding star, Venus, embarks upon a retrograde phase. It’s been a few weeks now where you’ve undergone a process of deep renewing and reflection of your values and desires. Soon, Venus will reverse back into your sign. At some level now, you’re going to have to put your proverbial money where your mouth is. Embodying and becoming your upgraded self is the next step. It’s a gradual process so it will be worth the wait! Venus is still r -

Saturn, your guiding planet, is still anchored at the very bottom of your solar chart and will be for some time yet. So while other areas of your life may ebb and flow, wax and wane, it’s important that you attempt to get the basics right at home. Deep roots ensure ripe fruits. That is actually a great concept for you to consider as you try and make choices and decisions in other areas of your life. Venus is still retrograde, so if it feels like your love life or your finances are going ba -

It’s been an intense week with some intense astrology to boot! Despite all this, it may be worthwhile remembering that your ruling planet, Mars, is in your Fun Zone! Yes, so having fun really matters now. Even if it’s just doing more of the little things you love to do, it all adds up and overflows into creating a more joyful and fulfilled life. Over the top gestures aren’t required to be happy right now, just smile and be grateful. Venus is still retrograde, so if it feels lik -

Mercury is about to move into retrograde or reverse motion in your Career and Life Direction. At the minimum, this could result in some confusion or logistical mishaps such as missed emails or miscommunication. At a deeper level, it could prompt indecision or confusion about the direction this part of your life is going in. That said, a little bit of confusion can help you figure out the answers you’re looking for and a direction that works for you. Venus is still retrograde, so if it feel -

You’re still in the right place at the right time to have a good think about your finances. This is a cycle which only happens twice a year – the next similar cycle will take place in 6 months time. Don’t use that as an excuse to do nothing though. Now is the time to work out how confident you feel about your financial future and to take any steps you need to, if you’re not feeling too good about the way it’s all unfolding. Don’t let your ego get in your way. -

There’s still time for you to focus hard on your daily health and work routines. And if you think “Omg-so-boring-routines!” think again. They are your friend now. So whether you’re living a normal life of going to work and coming home again, or you’re reading this in some exotic location with a Mai Tai in one hand and sunshine in the other, think about your routines. If you don’t have any, make some. And if now really isn’t the moment for it, at least th -

No one will blame you if you need to spend the next few days under a blanket on the sofa with the curtains drawn. The Sun has almost finished his annual push through your deep and dark 12th House which means it’s nearly a year since he was in your sign (that’s where he’s going to next) which means it’s almost 12 months since you had the vital and energising power of the Sun firing you up. In other words, you’re now running on reserve energy. Treat yourself kindly an -

Sex and money and money and sex. What a combo, eh? But if you cast your mind back about three weeks, you’ll recall that I told you this is where the emphasis for your life was going to be. And indeed, that’s where it is now. Are you getting enough of either? Are either creating happy or sad situations in your life? Where you’re not happy with the set up of either, what can you do you about it? What would you do if you had all the confidence in the world? Don’t let your eg -

The Sun is still on your Fourth House – where it will stay for a few more days yet. Remember at the start of this cycle about three weeks ago, I reminded you that at this time of the year, it’s an ideal moment for you to focus on your Inner Self, your home life and family. If you’ve been so busy with trying to get everything and anything else done that you haven’t had a chance to really reconnect with yourself (your Self) and your loved ones, remind yourself now, to sched -

As the Sun prepares to exit your Third House in a few days time, remember this; right now you are in a cycle which is all about talking, writing and communicating. If you turn your hand to any of these pursuits, you’re going to find it much easier than usual to find the words you need to express yourself. However, this cycle doesn’t last forever. You won’t always be feeling quite so able to put yourself and your thoughts out there. So if you have some communicating to do, do it -

Pretty soon the Sun will be changing signs and moving out of your Fifth House of Pleasure. So does this mean The Good Times are about to come to an end? Wellllll, yes and no. When the Sun does change signs, you can expect life to be more about Getting Through One Day At A Time. The focus will shift from your weekends off, to the daily turnover of your routines. And this is not a bad thing. The new cycle will only last one month and it’s going to be your chance to get your house in order. H -

It’s all about someone else for you right now and it still will be for another week or so. After that, you get a chance to slip a little more under the astro-radar. But right now, the skies are asking to you focus on Someone Else In Particular or just Others In General. Put yourself second and see what your most important one-to-one relationships are teaching you about life and about yourself. What issues are other people bringing up for yo now? And how well are you dealing with them? As t -

If you’re still finding it hard to stop obsessing over the details, it’s time to give yourself some Time Out. Today or at some point over the next few days, before the Sun departs your 9th House of Philosophy, step back and look at the bigger picture. Where are you? Where have you come from? And where are you headed? Does the picture you see fit in with your life philosophies? And if not, what CAN you do about it, and what are you GOING to do about it. It’s time to think it thr
