Well, that full moon was a doozy, huh? It’s not so often we get a full moon on the shortest night of the year, and the ego check that coincided with the planetary patterns seemed to be all around. I hope humility and accountability emerged in your world. This week, the big planetary moment has to do with the cosmic curmudgeon, Saturn. On Saturday, Saturn stations retrograde in the sign of Pisces. Saturn is retrograde for about 5 months of the year, so Saturn’s retrograde movement is hardly unusual. However, when it stations to turn retrograde, it appears to stop moving in the sky from our perspective. When a planet’s apparent motion stops, its influential potency increases, like the power of antici………..pation. Saturn represents boundaries, maturity, time, failure, coldness and pretty much everything our inner child hates, but our inner wisdom requires. Prepare to face some cold hard truths. Approach any moral conundrum or responsible obligation with an editor’s discerning eye, and you’ll be uniquely positioned to integrate the lessons of this transit.
Here are your horoscopes. Read for your rising and sun signs.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
You’ve been growing wiser in your belief systems lately. Perhaps you’ve been studying at a high level, traveling more or challenging the beliefs you had when you were younger. Prepare to reevaluate this path you’ve been on with a more critical eye. Is there something you’ve been avoiding? In particular, how must you rethink yourself in relation to your maturing beliefs? The hard choices are the right choices now.
Leo
July 23 – Aug. 22
Have you been cutting out some investments, financial or social? Letting go of certain obligations allows you to focus more on the projects that you deeply value. Prioritize. It is high time to consolidate your commitments. Think about how your solitude is important, and let your need for alone time guide your editing process. Saying “no” to new commitments will be helpful.
Virgo
Aug. 23 – Sept. 22
A powerful turning point is taking place in an important partnership in your life. This could be a romantic relationship, a business relationship or a lifelong friendship. Follow your mature growth and use what you’ve learned. Think about your social circles and listen to your support network. How this partnership affects your access to supportive community should answer your questions.
Libra
Sept. 23 – Oct. 23
Grumbling is almost always wasted energy, unless of course it provides access to a deeper truth about the futility of your toils. Are your routine labors and daily habits contributing to your growth and wisdom, or are they lacking in maturity? As a guide, it would be helpful to think about how your reputation would be affected if your habits were public knowledge.
Scorpio
Oct. 23 – Nov. 21
It looks like you’ve been digging into your artistry lately, as if you’ve learned how to nurture your creativity like a caring parent. Like a parent, though, you need to allow your creative output to have a life of its own. Are you incorporating new ideas into your work or recycling old motifs? Give your mind freedom to explore and see how your work takes on a new air of dignity.
Sagittarius
Nov. 22 – Dec. 21
Some difficult but necessary decisions are being called upon at home or with family. You may need to step into an authority role when you haven’t had to do so before. If this is difficult, think about how your time, heart and money are invested in important projects outside of the home. Keeping your mind on your priorities will help you to be the adult with your nearest and dearest.
Capricorn
Dec. 22 – Jan. 19
Your familiar world is the place where you are maturing right now. By that, I mean you are stepping into your authority in your local neighborhood, you are communicating with more weight, you are a leader among siblings. Perhaps the impetus of this newfound confident wisdom is an important partnership you’ve established. Think on this person to understand your new role.
Aquarius
Jan. 20 – Feb. 18
You’re either becoming more careful with your money or your income stream is drying up a little bit. In other words, either you are actively saving or you are being forced to scrimp. Either way, you are making more mature financial decisions. This is beneficial whether it is voluntary or imposed. Think about how your labor translates to income. Getting clear on this alchemy will guide you.
Pisces
Feb. 19 – March 20
As Saturn stations retrograde in your sign, Pisces, you get to reevaluate yourself as a keeper of the universe’s wisdom. We all contain the breadth and the depth of the entire universe within us, but you are in a time when you get to step into that authority with clarity and a sense of responsibility right now. Don’t know what the hell I’m saying? Think about the things in life that bring you bliss.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
There are many paths in life that we must walk alone. Yes, we have friends and family and lovers around us, but there is a portion of our life here on Earth that is uniquely solitary and introspective. You have the opportunity to dive deep into this solitude and emerge with wisdom. Thinking and communicating with your familial roots will support this process.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
Quantity is not always better than quality when it comes to friends and people in your social realm. You are in a period where trimming the fat will be greatly beneficial to your personal growth. When deciding whom to keep close and whom to push out into further orbit, think about the people who help you to speak more clearly and who hold you accountable like siblings.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
You are experiencing a newfound appreciation and reputation as an authority in your chosen line of work. You now have the choice of what to do with this status. Think about how this credibility can open up new income streams. Maybe not for you personally, but for your business or organization. Money is not everything, but it can fuel innovation and help people.
