April, 2001 |
The Scorpions may have recently found themselves standing on rather shaky ground. Unusual circumstances have continued to come your way at lightning speed, causing a dazed sensation for many. This month may turn out to be magic or mayhem depending on what you want from life, how well you set your plans and what strategies you decide to use. The haze that forms before you is due to a line up of planets in the dual and extremely changeable sign of Gemini. Of the ten planets, five of them move in retrograde motion this month, hampering your progression in many areas and much patience on your part will be called for as a result. If you rely on old or out dated modes of behavior under such influences as we are experiencing at present, a conflict of energies will arise. June calls for a brand new approach. Being a fixed sign, flexibility can pose a difficulty for you, perhaps something of a large difficulty. In an attempt to escape the chaos that will surround some Scorpios this month, many of them will begin to form an attachment to their favorite possession. Your home, car or a special hobby may now become more important to you than ever before. The retrograde motion of Pluto and your ancient ruler Mars in your financial sector may see you spending a great deal of money on items or activities that are not particularly conducive to long term happiness or security. You should make attempts to avoid buying unnecessary items or spending on impulse as a means of comfort. If a car or motorcycle requires costly repairs, the perfect replacement vehicle will come your way next month. The Full Moon phase on the 6th June may bring a time when many expenses or bills could arrive on your doorstep. With the Sun in your eighth sector forming an exact opposition to the Full Moon, the income of a partner or colleague cannot be relied upon to relieve this financial burden. With both of your financial sectors highlighted this month, careful planning and consideration is called for in all monetary matters. Take things slowly and ensure that you do not leave any matters to chance. It's possible that a joint investment may take a turn for the worse this month so do not leave all of your eggs in one basket. Mars' position indicates that you must take a responsible stance in all monetary matters as sheer carelessness could cause heavy losses. However, those who work on a bonus or commission basis will be blessed when large rewards arrive unexpectedly for work they have completed in the past. In a sense, financial justice may be just around the corner. June will prove to be a good indicator of how well you have distributed your wealth in the past. There are almost certainly some deeper lessons to be learnt here. Is money coming in thick and fast, or is it going out the door at double speed? You may need to watch whether you are spending the wrong way or if there are actions in your past that you need to be making amends for now. Guard against the temptation to fritter money away today on things that may yield little value tomorrow. You may need to look to the past for clues as to your present and future in this regard. Perhaps the most important feature of this Full Moon however is its element of reflection. The Sun forms an opposition from its position in your eighth sector, alongside Saturn and Jupiter. You will be given the opportunity to finally put to rest an issue or challenge that has been holding you back in your life for some time. You can delve right down deep, relentless in your search, to weed out the problem area. With your self determination increased two fold, due to the Gemini influence of the planets currently moving through your eighth sector, you can reach right into your subconscious and affect lasting changes in old programs or patterns that are long overdue. You will be given the opportunity to replace these outmoded negative patterns with healthy positive ones. Mercury feels quite at home in his own sign of Gemini, however he turns retrograde on the 4th June, not returning to direct motion once again until the 28th June. You should avoid signing any documentation or important paper work during this phase, particularly if it relates in any way to a partnership. A contract regarding a house or joint business may go wrong and this is not a positive time for making deals with another. Postpone these matters until July. The effects of a total solar Eclipse will be felt throughout the month urging you to learn new skills or take on board some of the strategies of a foreign culture. An invention or money making venture may come to you, however you may not have the resources or the contacts needed in order to bring this to fruition. Once again, postpone these matters until July, when things will be more fortunate for you in a monetary sense. The Eclipse forms in the fellow water sign of Cancer on the 21st June and for many Scorpions the opportunity for travel will open before you. There are indications that Scorpions may take on a serious philosophical or spiritual study this month and there may be much reflection about who you are on the inside as you discover a true union with your higher self. If you have a strong Gemini influence in your own natal chart, the events of June may bring some extreme restlessness as you mind shifts into new directions and brings with it the urge to pack your belongings and go chasing some unique rainbows. The grounding influence of Cancer later in the month, will help restore your sense of balance and well-being. Venus prepares to leave the sign of its detriment and enter your seventh sector of partnerships and marriage on the 7th June. If your relationship with a long term partner has been somewhat lack lustre of late this is the month to inject some romance back into your life. Stayovers at stylish hotels are featured, together with the most refined and beautiful gifts. As the neck and throat areas are featured, a pendant, necklace or chain will be the perfect gift for your partner. Surprise them with a gift that they will cherish. Regarding spiritual matters, Scorpions should use discernment this month when attempting to share your thoughts with others. It would be wise to seek a spiritual mentor you can safely confide in as the Sun and Saturn in your eighth sector can indicate some persecution for your spiritual beliefs if they are too widely spread or dispersed frivolously. The positions of Saturn and the Sun serve to amplify your long range goals. You can clearly see the things that you wish to attain in the future – stability, security and comfort. These aims are easily achievable but perhaps not quite within your reach. July will be a far more positive time for you. Draw a circle around the 14th and 15th of June as the Sun will come into close aspect with Jupiter on these golden days. The warmth of these two benevolents, as they join together in close embrace, will bring many blessings for you. Master your feelings, and do not allow slights of the past to hold you back. The repayment of an old debt may make it possible for you to further your education in some way or begin planning an overseas trip in the not too distant future. The bountiful Jupiter prepares to change sign next month when it crosses into the fellow water sign of Cancer. Acclaim and success is coming your way. In Summary :
