Shortly after my 43rd birthday and entering an 8th House profection year, I had a strong urge to do some form of ancestral work. One Saturday afternoon (Saturn’s day) under a Cancer Moon, I felt the need to go through a whole bunch of family memorabilia I decided I didn’t want to keep anymore.
If nothing else, these painful lessons may have helped you realise where you may have set the bar too low in a job, a relationship, or what you allowed yourself to be available for.
You see, as children, you’re encouraged to dream and imagine. If you do it as an adult, you’re a daydreamer, gonna-doer or a no-hoper.

This is the last full week of the Sun’s stay in his home sign of Leo. Wednesday sees him make a supportive trine aspect to Uranus. This dynamic fire duo radiates a bold and unique energy that demands to be seen and heard. Act from the heart and be authentic.
For the best part of 5 months, Mars will be visiting the same area of your life where Saturn also occupies until late next year. The area where you may be experiencing the struggle to find focus or the ability to move at the pace you’d prefer, like the half man half beast that the sign of Sagittarius represents ,Mars will swoop along and provide the inferno that will be a test of both courage and faith alike.
