This Week in Astrology August 17, 2009

The theme for this week is "put your seat belt on." There is so much activity going on that it will seem like you are being hit from all sides. This stunning fusion of energies will create change. It will be your decision if it is the hard way or the uncomfortable one. The major activity comes from a yod, which is also called the Finger of God, which implies that God wags His index finger at those not getting it right. Those who make adjustments which means taking a path that your Ego does not want to take, will enjoy great gains. Those who insist on sticking to the logical rigid step by step plan will not make similar ones. In fact, they will experience their world crashing when Mars squares Uranus on Tuesday. The positive side of this aspect is that it will promote breakthrough thinking. The answers are there. You must be open minded and unbiased in order to see them. The energy Wednesday supports the ability to make strategic adjustments in the challenging business world. It also makes you take a realistic look at relationships. The ones that have run their course will end. The ones that can be healed will begin the process. The energy continues through the New Moon on Thursday. This is the time to decide what new beginnings you want in your life. You know what you do not want but what do you really want? I am not talking about Ego based desires. What does your Soul desire? If you are not sure, do not despair, intuitive flashes will be abundant the end of the week. Nurture your creative side. This is where you will find your answers. This is also a good time for doing depth work. What is hidden will be revealed. It will not be pleasant but it will get rid of the junk in your life. That is the only way to set the stage for the world your Soul desires.
