Spiritual Horoscope
January 2016 Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) Happy birthday Capricorn! This is a great relationship year as you release old resentments about others, and also negative beliefs about yourself.You’re able to let go of control and trust the flow of life. This month explore ideas about prosperity and financial abundance. Energy effortlessly pours into your heart and also your wallet! Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) Mercury is retrograde, teaching you the power of words and thoughts. Aquarians can deal with anxiety (because of your excitable ruling planet, Uranus), so it’s important to harness your mind. You’re here to transform restlessness into enthusiasm and creativity. Inner thoughts build your outer world. By observing habitual and subconscious thoughts and you’re on your way to freedom!
Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) Do your friends and activities empower you? Or drag you down? Think about what you truly love to do — and the kind of people you want in your life. Cleanse out limiting situations and allow new energy and people to flow in! This increases self-esteem, and even your finances. Long-term partnerships improve and you’ll find things in common you hadn’t explored yet! Being authentic brings serenity, love and abundance.
Aries (March 21 – April 19) Exciting things happen with career! But since Mercury is retrograde, explore
options this month, but hold off on decisions. More is revealed in February, although you’ll be tempted by and convinced about right now. Believe it or not, something even better’s on the way! In relationships, so be patient, allow dust to settle, and communicate in depth later instead of saying/doing things you regret now.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20) As a Taurus, your values and standards are very important. Make sure the spiritual path you’re on matches your deepest connection with the Universe. You might need to make changes, or at least stand up to someone about your beliefs that differ from theirs. You might also need to work out financial differences with your spouse. If single, don’t settle for people who are vastly divergent from your core self!
Gemini (May 21 – June 20) With Mercury retrograde, it’s too easy to cause relationship challenges through misunderstandings. Meditate on releasing past power struggles with old or current partners. Take deep breaths before conversations of whatever sort. Find your center of power so you don’t
assume people are out to get you. If you’re coming for a balanced place, deep bonding happens in relationships — and maybe a positive shift at work too. Allow intuition to guide you rather than fear!
Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
Someone wants to know you at depth! Even if it’s a longterm partner, it’s an opportunity to become more emotionally intimate. In order not to be threatened or feel fear of possible abandonment (both of which pull you into your shell so you appear cold), meditate about letting go of old hurts. Be in the present moment with this person who loves you! It is safe to be here now!
Create a new budget for the New Year. Meditate about how you might overspend or be unconscious of money when you’re angry as an outlet for uncomfortable feelings. Getting clear about prosperity opens doors to a new job or better circumstances at your current one. You’ll also find inventive ways to manage your stress and improve your health when you’re fully present to emotions and not avoiding your inner signals!
Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
Mercury retrograde can cause confusion in the balance of career and relationships. Get clear about taking on extra work and how much is expected of you. Also let your spouse/partner know you’ll be less available. Be good to yourself. Get enough sleep. Treat your body well with good food. Breathe in between tasks to de-stress! It’s possible to be successful, happy and healthy!
I know it isn’t fun to contemplate focused planning, but it’s time to move toward goals. Meditate on your priorities. Distractions are basically wasted time and energy. You’ll have more joy from analyzing your thoughts and actions — and releasing what drags down your life progress. Relationships, money and self-esteem improve from this short time of discipline!
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) Childhood issues can be stirred up to be healed. Instead of reacting, meditate on the roots of the feelings. You respond so strongly now because you’re reliving a familiar emotional pattern. Examining your subconscious and letting go of the causes of your pain brings greater intimacy in a current relationship, or attracts a partner who is available on many levels. You’ll also heal old stress patterns and feel internally peaceful.
Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) Libras seem harmonious, but actually you can be addicted to drama (and then you can re-establish peace). Meditate on this part of yourself, since you could be stirring up relationship trouble with Mercury retrograde this month. Balanced doesn’t mean boring! Also write about the positive and negative
EVOLVING…IN KANSAS CITY
things of 2015. Then rip up or burn the pages, setting yourself free and opening your mind to fulfillment in all areas!
