HOROSCOPE - January 8, 2008

Posted by Wayne | Thursday, January 08, 2009

This waning Virgo moon is like a painter hard at work on a masterpiece, looking at the work from up close, far away, in between and upside down. The lunation affords us the perfect opportunity to take a step back from confusing matters, or rush in on them with a sideways glance. Choose a different manner of focus to get a different view on life.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Keep the commitments to a minimum, especially the financial ones. Otherwise you wind up with a long-term agreement that could later make you feel stifled. Stand strong against pressure to sign anything.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ve learned from the past. Once you get a sign, you don’t hesitate to move forward. Whether it be a golden path, a yellow brick road or the sunny side of the street, you’re walking it and you like where it’s going.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You will be reading, musing and meditating your way through an issue. You’re able to get such a lofty perspective on your life that it’s like you are watching yourself being watched. Pisces is a mentor.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You often help others see the things that are going well for them. Now it’s time to use this positive focus on your own life. So much is right that it makes the things that are wrong seem like no big deal.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re feeling slightly insular. And though you don’t mind meeting new people, you find an emotional touchstone in the people that you know well. Share some relaxing time with your closest people.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (JAN. 8). You change the way you look at things this year. You approach situations from the most empowering viewpoint possible. You are so lovable through the winter that it’s challenging to find alone time. February’s financial adjustments make life better. In June, accepting a weakness brings about a unique strength. Gemini and Aries adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 25, 49, 52 and 18.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There are plenty of exits from the freeway to success. But if you accidentally get off before you reach your destination, don’t worry. By now you have a pretty good sense about where the next entrance will be.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The social milieu is a delicate balance these days. This is not time to wing it – you need an educated plan. Consult with someone who follows the rules even better than you do and you’ll sparkle when it matters most.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). No wonder someone is so crazy about you today. You’re spontaneous, joyful and gentle. You’re exactly the kind of partner a sensitive Pisces or Cancer has been looking for. Laughter and love are your future.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). What you thought would be an easy day is probably already turning tricky. You may recall forgotten information and have to scramble to make up for it, or you may deal with unusual circumstances.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If there’s anything that gets your (sea) goat, Capricorn, it’s pettiness. Some people simply can’t stop tallying every tit for tat. Your answer is to give so generously that others can’t help but realize how silly they are being.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It is with great love that you do the simple thing – wash the dish, pick up the dirty sock, pay the bill. It’s not so much the activity as it is the feeling that radiates from you that is your contribution to the world.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ve got your eye on something high and gleaming – an impossible star maybe, but reach anyway. Maybe you’ll get it, and maybe you won’t. But you won’t get a fistful of mud either

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: “I’m angry that my husband, a Pisces, isn’t a better father. He’s not bad, but he’s far from good. He can interact with our 4-year-old in a playful manner. But after about 20 minutes he’s on to doing what’s more important to him – taking a business call, shopping online, watching television. He just doesn’t have great parenting skills and has no interest in developing any. I’m angry that he doesn’t take more of an interest in our child’s development and I also feel as though I am doing all of the work. It’s just not affair. Signed, Leo Mom.”

Your standards are too high for him to fulfill and he and he never will be able to. There is nothing you can do to make him more interested in parenting. He will probably never be able to give more emotionally, energetically or otherwise than he does now. I write this to liberate your soul and prod you to move on from this losing battle. Your sign connects to children in a unique way and you simply can’t expect others to have the same connection. So celebrate what he does give, and know that you’ll have to make up for the rest. It’s simply your destiny.
