OSCAR CAINER

TODAY’S lunar eclipse converges with retrograde Mars in Aquarius. A Full Moon typically brings a realisation to illuminate a tense situation. Combined with an eclipse, that illumination turns from a hand-held torch to a militarygrade searchlight! Even then, if you’re expecting an easy breakthrough, you may be frustrated. With Mercury and Mars retrograde, appearing to be retracing their steps, nothing will be obvious or instant. But Venus, this weekend, promises that if we listen to our hearts, valuable insight can be gained.

THERE’S a classic song from the musical Annie Get Your Gun, which begins: ‘There’s no business like showbusiness.’ It continues by explaining the reality of life in the entertainment industry. The upbeat melody disguises the reality of having to ‘go on with the show’ despite any number of personal concerns and difficulties. As with showbiz, so with life. The powerful Lunar Eclipse is emphasising an opportunity for you to reveal the truth of your feelings. Disguises and acts are no longer required. It’s an exceptional day.

WHEN we’re happy in our domestic situation, it makes a big difference to how we relate to the world.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23 — Dec 21

IF YOU need to have a complex conversation, or exchange a difficult point of view, it’s often a good idea to start it with a humdrum chat. That’s why we discuss the weather. It’s a perfect way to break the ice, and find something inane to talk about. It finds common ground, from which trickier conversations can be held with greater success.

THE Blood Moon Eclipse is obliging you to rethink the most important matters in your life. It’s a chance to see the priorities and opinions you’re being influenced by, and check who they belong to. Are you following other people’s advice to such an extent that you’ve lost sight of your own sense of value and your own needs? You need to have confidence in your own ability to judge what’s right and what’s not. Today, at last, you can see a familiar situation in a new and creative light. It’s an exceptional day.

WE TEACH our kids as we were taught ourselves: rewarding them for being good and punishing them when they’re naughty. As they grow older, they have to deal with exacting teachers, and are expected to follow complex rules of behaviour. It’s a wonder that we ever learn to think for ourselves and make our own judgements! As Mars presides over the powerful Lunar Eclipse in your sign, it calls you to be assertive and overcome an old fear. You can be brave today. It’s an exceptional day.
