Navigating the Stars
by Tamu Miles - The Navigator
All Signs:
We’re all going to find it a bit hard to focus over the next little while. This is because even though we are trying to stay on one track, we can’t decide which track that will be. Some of us have created this dilemma in our lives by trying to take on a million things at once, and some of us are just the victims of the prevailing energetic winds. Whatever category you fall under, make sure to be on your toes in terms of organization: keep lists and prioritize. Don’t forget to take time for yourself and your family, and remember that if you don’t get whatever it is you are trying to accomplish done, it’s not the end of the world.
♈ARIES
Mar. 21 to Apr. 19
If you keep clinging to what might have been, you are going to set yourself up for some mighty big disappointments over the next while. The grass is not greener on the other side of the fence, and if you want to create the life you’ve dreamt about, then you have to get off your butt and actually do something about it. The future is just that: the future. Yes, it is built on the foundations of the past, but it is also not some imagined utopia repeated on an endless loop. Shift your focus towards creating something new, whether it be in terms of your relationships or your career.
♉TAURUS
Apr. 20 to May 20
There are things you have been working towards or that you have been waiting for, for quite some time and these things are now close to manifesting in your life. If you take a moment to sit in quiet meditation or thought, you might actually be able to sense the future you have envisioned drawing closer to your now. Whether you are finishing a degree, or changing careers, this is an important moment and should not be taken lightly. Do not back off nor leap to a premature conclusion that your work is done. This is the final push that will make all the difference later on down the road.
♊GEMINI
May 21 to June 20
In terms of life ambition, there is a difference between what we see ourselves being when we “grow up” and our life purpose. Most of us spend years either trying to figure out this difference so we can decide which path we should be on, or we fumble around with no direction at all and hope that by the grace of the universe we’ll at least make it through to retirement. Well you, my dear Gemini, have the opportunity right now to tap into your life purpose, your dream, or whatever you want to call it. All you need to do is follow through on the path of inner growth you have felt pushing and bubbling up inside, even if it’s painful.
♋CANCER
June 21 to July 22
I know that you are mighty confused right now and that you would really like some help to determine which aspect of your personality you are supposed to be listening to. Well, I’m afraid there is no straightforward, easy solution. I will say, however, that trusting your gut will help make life a whole lot easier for you. That being said, if you really want to illuminate the real you, you are going to have to come to terms with the fact that you are not a one-dimensional personality and that in order to feel whole and content you are going to have to integrate and learn to be at peace with all of your personalities.
♌ LEO
July 23 to Aug. 22
You will find great joy and reward from sharing who you are and what you have to offer with others right now. Whether this is with a loved one, or with a stranger on the street, I recommend not turning a blind eye to any opportunity to give of yourself at this time. This is not an endeavor to see how many karma points you can rack up, but rather a practice in giving freely of yourself without thinking of or expecting return. Your ever calculating mind needs a lesson in humility and if you take this seriously and act from the heart, the reward will be much more than monetary. Are you ready to find out what that means?
♍VIRGO
Aug. 23 to Sept. 22
Growth happens at different stages in our lives, and usually through processes of initiation. You, dear Virgo, have reached one of those stages in your life. You are well aware of this fact, however, it’s where you are not directing your attention that is the problem. A natural by-product of growth is a healthy dose of fear: a fear that we won’t be able to live up to the new expectations which others have of us, or those which we have of ourselves. And right now, much of your exhaustion stems from a fear that you are not truly the right person for the job, or that you don’t really know what you are doing. Therefore you are overcompensating. If you don’t slow down and put things into perspective you could find that you are hit with a nasty bout of the flu or develop some kind of chronic health issue. Relax; it will be okay.
♎ LIBRA
Sept. 23 to Oct. 22
When lightning strikes it changes whatever it touches forever, and without mercy. I’m sorry to say that you are in for this kind of change in your life, and all I can tell you is that it will have something to do with whatever issue you are not willing to face. Denial has a way of hurting those around us and it is for this reason, whether you think you are hurting someone or not, that the universe has decided that you need a kick in the butt. If you would like to lessen the impact or shock of this change, take a closer look at all aspects of your life and own up. Whether you need to tell your boss that you’ve been somehow cheating the company, or whether you need to admit to your spouse you’ve been having an affair, it’s time to clear the air and in the end you will benefit in ways you cannot see at this time.
♏SCORPIO
Oct. 23 to Nov. 21
You are living under the illusion that what you prize the most, or what you care about the most, is going to be taken away from you. You are walking around with your arms protectively covering your heart and you trust no one. This attitude, though brought about by recent events in which admittedly you have been hurt by, will only cause what you have worked so hard to create to crumble down around you. You have great integrity, Scorpio, so put it into action to deal with whatever has caused you pain. Face it with open arms and a level head. You know you can. In this way you can recruit the support you need but are too afraid to ask for.
♐SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22 to Dec. 21
Don’t let anything hold you back right now. All the elements have combined to create a powerful force of energy and synergy that you can use to take down the last barriers that are up around whatever goal you have been trying to attain. Don’t let fear hold you back, say what you need to say and do what you need to do in order to reach your end goal. You have felt suppressed, ignored, and generally pushed to the back of the line for quite awhile, but now it is your time to shine. You do have helpers; you just need to assign them a task.
♑CAPRICORN
Dec. 22 to Jan. 19
Your creativity is your best ally right now. There’s a bit of a funk happening and you are having trouble not only figuring out why, but what the heck you are supposed to do about it. I know you don’t like this state of mind, and that it troubles you deeply, so I hope you hear me. Use your hands, use your brain, and follow your gut. It doesn’t matter what you do, just get out there and do it. Be courageous; be inventive. The only way you are going to break through your mood is by getting up off the couch and doing until a shift takes place, or in other words: you find yourself in another state of mind.
♒AQUARIUS
Jan. 20 to Feb. 18
Have you found yourself in a foul mood lately? Does everything irk you or rub you the wrong way? Are people acting just plain stupid? Well, I get where you’re coming from, but I can also tell you this negativity is just a self-perpetuating loop. The best way out of this loop is to allow yourself to have fun. So get playful. However, you can’t go doing what you’ve always done to alleviate your boredom. You need to think outside the box. What if you tried having fun and being playful in ways that you would normally find ridiculous? If you would open your heart and give yourself permission to do something like this, it would open more possibilities in whatever direction you are currently placing your intent.
♓PISCES
Feb. 19 to Mar. 20
When I was about four years old, I ran away from home. A neighbour found me walking along the main road with a lunch pail in my hand. I was determined that I wasn’t going to take “it” anymore. There is a fire in the belly of every Pisces that is sometimes only shown through passive aggressive behaviour, but it is there nonetheless. This fire burns in the name of injustice and oppression in whatever forms they come in. This fire is now burning brightly within you these days, however, you should not take yourself too seriously or you’ll end up being one of those screaming lunatics that nobody listens to. Think of this fire and where it can take you as an adventure. What you have to say is valid, and in fact needs to be said, but you also need to remember that we are all just human, and the world cannot be saved in one day.
