Change your place, change your luck

Horoscopes for Sivan 5783

It’s the Hebrew month of Sivan and the season of travel is upon us. Sivan’s tribal ruler, Zevulun, traversed the shores, inlets, cities and towns of the eastern Mediterranean by ship, acquainting himself with all manner of peoples, and trading goods with them. Returning home with both increased knowledge and increased wealth, Zevulun understood that diverse connections multiply opportunities.

Gemini, the mutable air constellation associated with the Hebrew month of Sivan, facilitates every kind of communicative connectivity. Change is Gemini’s byword – a response to the integration of new information. What facts are you digesting which help you to understand that changing your “luck” (in Hebrew mazal means “constellation”) involves changing your place?

The opposition of Mars in Leo to retrograde Pluto in Aquarius, with Jupiter in Taurus making a fixed T-Square on Shabbat Bamidbar and Rosh Hodesh Sivan sets the urgency level to high.
