Monday launched the work-week with a mixed bag of Astro-Energies. Mercury, planet of Communication, appears three times, squaring off with both the Moon (Emotions) and Uranus (New Ideas), and working in harmony with Neptune — the Spiritual planet. This sets up an interesting dynamic where you must use strength of Spirit to break through any blocks for good communication today — especially when it comes to proposals, presentations, and dialog with important people in your life. You can do this. Call on emotional strength in the areas where you are making progress (ie. resolutions for the New Year).

You have “an opportunity to look carefully at what your emotional intelligence is telling you about some new directions in your life.”

Your Astro-keys for Tuesday are a focus on Communication and its relation to Health. Always remember to get stressful communication done first thing in the day — otherwise it causes you stress much longer. The right Communication you put out today, will also make things easier for you later. Make sure you check what you write, and what you say and run through it with a cool mind and honest heart before you put it out there. In this way, good Communication is essential for good Health — your own health, the health of your relationships, and the health of your business.

Wednesday brings four harmonies two blockages and one tension point to our lives via the Astro-energies. Mars, Planet of Initiation, appear twice — once in harmony with Uranus, and once squaring off with the Moon. So, this presents an opportunity to look carefully at what your emotional intelligence is telling you about some new directions in your life. Why are you blocking them? You can feel what the best healthy choice is, so follow your gut and communicate intelligently about it.

On Thursday, it’s time to smooth over any stress in your important relationships. Take steps to move toward the goals you both want. This applies equally at home with your mate, as it does with important colleagues at work. You’re going to feel some feedback that people are nervous about change — natural isn’t it? Just remember, that not everyone sees the transformation goal as clearly as you do… yet. Hang in there.

Mercury, Venus & Mars – three planets closest to the Sun play prominently as influences in our lives.

Welcome to Friday. Mercury works some mischief today, opposing Neptune (Spirituality), and showing tension with Uranus (New Ideas). The Moon shows some good feelings for the Sun (Personality), but is in opposition to Mars (Initiation). This leaves you feeling good about yourself, and “standing pat” — no new directions right now. But what is the remaining communication issue? Can you find a way to move through it? Hint: remember perhaps the most important part of communication… listening.

Saturday looks balanced for Celestial energies with the Moon in harmony with Jupiter, Chiron, and Neptune. Welcome to August. Emotionally, it’s always good to be true to your Spirit — do what’s needed for your growth and that will be healthy. We also find the Moon squaring off with Saturn, Neptune, and the Sun today. You may see some discomfort with proposals that seem to restrictive. You know what to do. Lead from the Spirit and show those close to you the way to enjoy the day.

“…perhaps the most important part of communication… listening.”

Sunday finds the Moon in Harmony with Mercury — have a good discussion with your mate. About what? Well, the Moon (Emotions) is showing some tension with Jupiter (growth) and Chiron (Health). There’s your topic — what kind of growth activities could we do in our relationship that would be good for our health — the health of each of us, and the health of the relationship? I wager that very few people stop and think about that. But if you ask the question, and solve it with a retreat, a class, a new church — just a long talk… you will be a lot farther down the path.

Monday finds Mercury in trine (harmony) with Pluto — this is a good day to talk about renewing old projects. Are you stalled or blocked because something seems stale and boring? Find a new angle, so you can renew your enthusiasm. The Moon (Emotions) is showing some tension with Jupiter, Chiron, Neptune, and Mercury. Embrace tension. It will either help you forge ahead with creative tension that facilitates solutions, or it might surface some emotions you need to deal with. Remember — feel, deal, heal. The Moon is also squaring off with Venus today, so dealing with emotional tension can help you unblock your love relationships.
