YOUR STARS

Hi Oscar, On February 5, 1962, the Sun, Moon, Venus, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn all occupied Aquarius. Did anything significant happen then? How often do line-ups like this occur? When’s the next one? Paula. Hi Paula, There will be another multiple conjunction, or stellium, of planets in Aquarius in February next year, the first since 1962. The last one saw the start of the Cuban missile crisis. Aquarian stelliums can be rebellious but don’t have to be car crashes. Sudden breakthroughs are equally likely. Oscar

ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

Some people think it’s not good to be too tolerant; that letting things slide paves the way for people to trample over us, and that once we’ve revealed ourselves as being ‘walkovers’ our needs won’t be accounted for and our worries will go unheeded. Although being easygoing means there’s always a risk of being taken for granted, being selfish isn’t the way to find happiness. Take a chance today. Be as generous as possible. Brightening up someone’s day might just brighten yours. This magical phase between eclipses heralds hope. Call 1300 017 319.

LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a different result. That saying is often attributed both to Albert Einstein and Mark Twain. But since they weren’t psychiatrists, what would they know! What about, ‘If at first you don’t succeed, try, try, try again’. What if someone were on their third ‘try’, and about to succeed, when they heard the insanity definition. Don’t take someone else’s word for it today. If something feels right, stick to your guns! Be inspired in this magical time between eclipses. Call 1300 017 319.

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21

In days gone by astrological events were viewed with great importance. The Bayeux tapestry depicts Halley’s comet shining over Harold’s ill-fated coronation, and an extraordinarily bright blazing sun was seen to prophesy the victory of the Yorkist brothers in the Wars of the Roses. Even though we now know that it was a ‘parhelion’ (the sun reflecting ice crystals) the idea of cosmological forces watching over us remains compelling. The universe has got your back today.

The time between eclipses brings potential for positive change! Call 1300 017 319.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

Life on planet Earth isn’t the same as being in a movie. Well … if it is, it’s one that’s still being filmed rather than shown in your local cinema! After all, the best films have been through production and have a soundtrack to heighten the mood and draw the audience into the action. If you were going to create the musical accompaniment to the situation you’re living through, would you choose sweeping violins, or challenging chord sequences? Might you be adding more intensity than necessary? Use the time between eclipses to transform your dreams. Call 1300 017 319.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

Quick! What’s going on over there? Someone has just been pushed over on the pavement. You need to get to them immediately and protect them from more violence. Oh … hang on a minute … they were chatting on their phone and just about to step out into oncoming traffic. The person who knocked them down saved their life. It would be easy to jump to wrong conclusions today. You’re dealing with a sensitive situation and it’s hard to tease the facts from the fiction. Go slowly. Use the power of the eclipses to change your life. Call 1300 017 319.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

We tend to have great respect for our limitations. Since bumping into obstacles is an unpleasant, even painful business, we tend to try to anticipate their arrival and change paths in order to avoid them. Yet there are times when we imagine the hurdles lying ahead. Worse still, we mistakenly think that something friendly is going to be problematic. Even though you’re facing a challenge now you have the skills to easily accomplish what you want to achieve. Prepare to be pleasantly surprised. How will this transition between eclipses transform your life? Call 1300 017 319.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

We all sometimes think we can avoid stress by burying our heads in the sand. But it’s too uncomfortable to stay in that position for any length of time. Not to mention the sand that gets in our eyes and mouths. The same is true of the tension generated by trying not to think about stress. The whole thing would be easier if we simply faced up to whatever the problem was in the first place! Most of the time, a short, sharp stress is easier than a long, drawn-out irritation. Rip off that Band-Aid, today! The time between eclipses brings potential for positive change! Call 1300 017 319.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

As children we’re taught to conform and follow the rules. We do the same with our kids. We need them to ‘fit in’ with our lives. Teachers want them to fit with the rest of the class. It’s a necessary part of learning how to be part of society. Yet the unfortunate side-effect is that we can grow up in a homogenised world where we feel as if we have no right to do things differently, and tend to negate our own needs. Over time, you have neglected your hopes and dreams. It’s time to reach for more. This magical phase between eclipses heralds hope. Call 1300 017 319.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

It would be easy to think that an ongoing drama is drawing to a close. But how can you be certain that it’s over? Sometimes victory is black and white. The winner triumphs and the loser falls. At other times, both parties walk away licking their wounds. More rarely, both get off reasonably lightly. Try, if you can, to avoid closing arguments today. Veer away from any major debates. Write off rights and wrongs. The most important thing is to come out unscathed. You can sort the rest out later. Be inspired in this magical time between eclipses. Call 1300 017 319.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

Why can’t everything just stay the same? Are there really so many aspects of your life that need altering and adjusting? That’s enough to daunt anyone and stop them from making a start. Wouldn’t it be easier and more efficient if you could somehow learn to live with the various factors that lie at the root of what’s irritating you? The aftermath of the Lunar Eclipse leaves you perfectly placed to embark on a bold journey. If you let certain annoying issues be, you can make much-desired progress. How will this transition between eclipses transform your life? Call 1300 017 319.

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

The rollercoaster of life carries on without stopping. One moment, you’re rising higher and higher and the next, you’re plummeting downwards. Let’s not overlook all the sudden twists and turns that occur along the way … some of them are so tight that you feel as if you might be expelled from your seat. Yet it’s all part of the fun of the fair. Even though it doesn’t always feel good at the time, the thrills provide the adrenaline that pushes you ahead. Here comes a more enjoyable, calmer ride. Use the time between eclipses to transform your dreams. Call 1300 017 319.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

Our insecurities tend to multiply like rabbits. Before you know it there are so many of them that there’s hardly any grass left for them to eat. That’s when they turn to cabbage patches and carrot tops. It doesn’t do any good to get rid of just one of them either … you need to take more universal action in order to conserve your crop of veggies. Fortunately you’re about to figure out what is feeding your anxiety. Once you’ve identified the source, you can remove it. Watch how your worries fade away. Use the power of the eclipses to change your life. Call 1300 017 319.
