ASTRAL REFLECTIONS BY TIM STEPHENS MAY 13 - 19, 2007 All times/dates are PDT. CANCER people are in for a "major wave" next year through 2022. This wave could bring the most complex set of events and feelings you've ever felt. It contains upheaval, joy and attraction - and might challenge your deeply held beliefs about love, partnership, and - the world. Some of you Cancers have endured a stale "security" relationship for many years. You're not elated, but you're not ready to make a break, either. If this describes your present partnership situation, get ready for some wild times, 2008 through 2022. During these fifteen years, ALL Cancer relationships will change - but in varying ways. Happy Cancer partnerships (in love and/or business) will transform, grow deeper and more interesting - perhaps via a struggle or two, as you and your other half jockey for position, for strength and to settle "who's in charge" in certain areas. (Even if you don't mean to - for much of this is subconscious, and emerges to the surface slowly, like a puzzle rising from the depths. The puzzle, Cancer, is your own destiny, asking you to recognize it!) Unhappily mated Cancers will face the same struggles and puzzles, but in this case you might renew your search for satisfying compatibility somewhere else. For all of you, this long wave will bring deep, true love - will either deepen the love you have, or split you apart and bring you true love from another. Nothing's free, though - whether you're going to find deeper love with your present mate or someone new, it will demand concessions: co-operation and flexibility on your part, openness, honesty, and the ability to surrender a certain amount of your financial and/or psychological security. You will be attracted to people who 1) seldom reveal their motives; 2) are fixed, or stubborn, and 3) wield a magnetism or charm that gets right into your heart and won't let go! If you're single, all the above applies - except that, of course, you aren't breaking up or transforming a present relationship. A new love that you do encounter will pull you into transformation anyway - of your deepest soul, in some cases. This fifteen-year "wave" begins with great luck and expansion of your relationships, and of opportunities in general, in 2008 - true love might appear! Others will treat you cheerfully. Luck will rise in relocation, contracts, negotiations, dealings with the public and all relationships. In 2009, sex and finances explode with luck. 2010's a fortunate year for a wedding, love, far travel, legal, learning and media involvements. 2011 brings career success, and 2012 again promotes finding true love. Start Nothing: 5:42 p.m. to 7:48 p.m. Mon., 12:27 p.m. to 7:34 p.m. Wed., and 5:57 p.m. to 8:38 p.m. Fri. Aries March 21-April 19 Chase money. Your energy and effectiveness reach a peak Sunday/Monday. Though Sunday might contain a hangover from last week's various crises, it soon brightens into an opportunity-studded day. These opportunities won't stand up and wave - rather, use Sunday's luck to complete, chase, seek co-operation - in legal, marriage, cultural, travel, educational and media fields. Monday's similar, but in a deeper way - look for mysteries, lucrative angles. Money's alluring but needs a clear eye Tuesday/Wednesday. Talk (no gossip, no civil servants) travel and handle paperwork Thursday/Friday. Then, a weekend of rest! Taurus April 20-May 20 Your energy, efficiency, timing and charisma continue strong, especially Monday night onward. Your money picture is starting to look better - present small ideas could trigger major ventures after May 20. You tired Sunday/Monday, and some cruelty might be "hanging in the air" early Sunday (avoid sarcastic, violent or prying people). But late Sunday offers great luck in planning, financial, counseling/therapy, research, and government related zones. Mail government applications, visit a psychic or occultist, buy an investment, etc. Monday's similar, but a "benevolent destiny" replaces "pure luck." Money opportunities Thursday! Gemini May 21-June 20 This is your last week of weariness. You've discovered a few of your weaknesses - or flaws in your structures, in family members, in plans, etc. - during the past half-month. Sunday/Monday, Thursday and Saturday are excellent days to begin correcting and strengthening. Sunday/Monday are great for pursuing friendships, relocation, investment, marriage, business partnership, contract negotiation or "public-taste" ventures. You sense the future! You might meet a future mate these days, if you're usually a "quiet Gemini." Your energy and charisma decline Tuesday/Wednesday, then rise mildly Thursday/Friday. Time actions accordingly. Cancer June 21-July 22 Eat, drink and make merry, Cancer - your popularity's high, a wish is coming true (perhaps about/for a child) and your future looks bright! Chase your ambitions Sunday/Monday - luck and a subtle but massive support accompany you. (Sunday morning might contain a refusal, cruel remark or other disappointment, so start late.) Friends, popularity, and optimism fill Monday night to Wednesday eve - accept happiness! Retreat, take a breather Thursday/Friday. Pushing too hard could awaken an enemy. Your charisma and energy soar late Friday night, to start an adventurous weekend! Grab success Saturday. Leo July 23-Aug. 22 Chase your ambitions all week, especially Tuesday/Wednesday; deal with higher-ups, parents and authorities. Your status and prestige are up for discussion; your abilities are tested. You'll succeed! Two "large" things begin to happen: 1) you're entering a six-week period that favors far travel, higher education, legalities, cultural events, religion and philosophy, media, and dealing with foreign-born people. (These themes offer great luck Sunday/Monday, so pursue them!) And 2) your hopes and social side are growing more buoyant - you'll notice this Thursday/Friday. Your mellow, idealistic side emerges. Rest, contemplate Saturday. Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22 Your mellow mood continues. Show love, sincerity; be philosophical, especially Tuesday/Wednesday. Last week might have caused havoc with your finances (or your intimate hopes about someone). Sunday holds a lingering last difficulty in this zone. But as the day progresses, your luck in finances, real estate, family, security, and retirement zones grows splendidly - seize success! (And continue Monday.) Wednesday night through Friday brings a preview of the month ahead: ambition, status, reputation will be your "setting" - and your forte! Push for answers Thursday, not Friday. Happiness, optimism visit Saturday! Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22 Early Sunday might contain a "bad note" in relationship, financial, sexual, work, health or "gossip" zones - perhaps a climax of last week's difficulties. But later, this day provides excellent opportunities, especially in relationships and travel. Be curious, seek, ask. Monday's similarly fortunate, a bit quieter. This week continues May's emphasis on life changes, deep support, finances, sexual and subconscious urges, mystery and joining with others in these areas, especially Tuesday/Wednesday - act Wednesday seven to noon for best results. Love, understanding arrive Thursday/Friday. Relationships excitement will intensify for six weeks. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21 Last week highlighted burgeoning relationship problems. The last of these might confront you Sunday morning - the solution is simple, if not easy: you have to sacrifice a) risk, romance, pleasure or b) money, possessive emotions. Later, this day and Monday offer great luck in money, earnings, purchases and work areas. Be diplomatic, co-operative Monday night to Wednesday - exciting or opportunity-laden meetings can occur - the best ones after dawn Wednesday. Financial and sexual lures hover around you Thursday/Friday. You could win, could lose: take a considered chance! Understanding soothes Saturday. Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21 Tackle work/health concerns - a new job might start midweek. But relief is in sight also - interesting communications begin. Sunday might start with an "ending" (keep your temper!) in romance, creativity, pleasure and risk - but this afternoon/night, and Monday, offer great luck in the same things, and Tuesday starts a six-week run of courage, desire and adventure in the same romantic, creative and speculative zones. Thursday/Friday create new opportunities, new horizons. You're about to step into a new, fresh life, Sage, if you want it! But do that work, too. Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19 Enjoy romance, pleasure, creative surges and life's beauty this week, especially Monday night to Wednesday. (Avoid mild deceptions.) Sunday starts with a "hangover" from last week's trials (and it's a good morning to say nothing, especially to "friends" masquerading as confidents). But this day ends with great luck in family, real estate, security, retirement, gardening and similar "down home" areas - and Monday continues the luck. Tackle chores Wednesday night to Friday (but back off Friday p.m. if something is just not working). Exciting meetings - and work opportunities arrive Saturday. Aquarius Jan.20-Feb. 18 Domestic themes, real estate, security, retirement, agriculture, soul, diet, and Mother Nature - these fill the week ahead. Get your rest, take naps, contemplate how some things are ending in your life, others beginning. You're starting to awaken to a thread of romantic, creative and pleasure-oriented possibilities. A love note, wink or pleasing call might arrive. Sunday/Monday (after a gloomy start Sunday) bring great luck in communications, socializing, and light love, while Tuesday begins six weeks of restlessness, mentally and physically. Thursday/Friday emphasize romance and creativity, but it's "early." Work Saturday. Pisces Feb. 19-March 20 Sunday might begin with some disappointment (or a bad idea about money) but your money luck soon turns bountifully upward, especially if your career or "prestige contacts" are involved! Monday's the same, though milder. Talk, travel, handle paperwork and examine details Tuesday/Wednesday. Your home, family, real estate, gardening, landscaping and similar things are opportune Thursday, frustrated Friday - act accordingly. A sweet, passionate feeling arrives late Friday night, will last all weekend! Tuesday begins six weeks of swift money flows. If you don't spend you'll be richer by late June!
