ASTRAL REFLECTIONS
BY TIM STEPHENS
JUNE 24 - 30, 2007

	All times/dates are PDT.
	Markets across the world are worried about inflation. Monday marks the second planetary inflation indicator in two years - and the last before 2011. I could be wrong, but I think rates will decline. So I'd buy bonds now, but delay taking out a mortgage. You might wait on both until after July 9, to be more confident of your direction. 
	The stock market drop I forecast for April/May occurred in early June. In general, economic conditions look healthy through 2008, so I wouldn't panic at any drops. The only economic (not market) soft spot should occur September/07 to January/08.
	From 2008 to 2024, ARIES will undergo a huge change of fortune - and direction - in career, community status, relations with VIPs and higher-ups, and parent-kid roles. For many, this will occur naturally, and simply be part of life's parade. E.g., your kids grow up and sail off to university, start their own lives, have children, etc. - so your role as a parent changes deeply. Or, younger Aries become parents. 
All of you Aries will face deep changes in your role in the community and the work place. You'll find that certain themes and influences grow large in your ambitions/career scene: death and rebirth, research, investigation, police work, investment, high finance, deep sex, psychology, therapy, occultism, the subconscious, dreams, mysticism (not spirituality, nor religion) transformation, rejuvenation, removal of allies and competitors (as if by fate) inheritances, accounting, funerals, wills and estates, chemicals, jungles and tropics, swamps, insects, secrets, mysteries, nuclear power, outer space, rocket propulsion and such things. For example, you could "inherit" a career position when your predecessor quits or fails. Or, subconscious nudges could inform your actions at crucial times. Some Aries will marry for power, and get there via sexual prowess - decide first if that is really the kind of marriage you want to end up in.
If you're looking for a new career, especially if you're young, you could do far worse than aiming toward one of the areas listed above. For instance, studying criminology or accounting, economics or psychology would probably interest you more - and give you more career clout later - than enrolling in creative arts, education, recreation or phys ed. (Still, don't go against your own talents and loves.)
During these 17 years, VIPS, bosses and parents will tend to be diplomatic but iron-willed, fair (not always) but inscrutable (always). In 2008, the first year of this influence, your career, reputation and community status will hit a big lucky streak - an excellent year to start a new career, change careers, or study for career.


Start Nothing: 12:22 p.m. to 5:26 p.m. Sun., 1:23 p.m. Tues. to 5:24 a.m. Wed., and 10:07 a.m. to 3:05 p.m. Fri.

Aries   March 21-April 19
Avoid starting any new projects except in research or therapy. Instead, attend to neglected chores on the home front, repair the stairs and window casings, etc. You might find yourself in an old neighborhood, or holding a photo album filled with memories. This is an excellent time, if needed, to commence therapy regarding your treatment by parents, or to improve your own parenting skills. A six-week cycle of increased income starts now - make sure you save, also, or you could end poorer than you started! 
Love and wisdom Wednesday-Friday! 

Taurus   April 20-May 20
Start no significant projects before July 10. Sign nothing; promise nothing. Uncertainty about your home reaches a peak early this week - it involves your mate. Don't start practical domestic projects - e.g. building a home - before February 18, 2008. (Buying a home as an investment - or having a baby, becoming pregnant - is good July and August 2007 - August 6-22 best.) Realize love conquers doubts, and co-operation conquers mistakes - except Tuesday! Love, wisdom arrive Friday/Saturday. Your determination and sexual appeal increase now to August 6 - so might your flaws. Be self-aware! 

Gemini   May 21-June 20
Start nothing new before July 10, especially in money, real estate, domestic zones, possessions and shopping. (You'll have a knack for making an enthusiastic beeline straight to a lemon.) This isn't the best time for buying/selling stocks. Instead, stick to routine chores, deal with projects started before June 15, and keep a weather eye out for mistakes, glitches, missed appointments and disrupted supplies. Sunday/Monday and Friday/Saturday bring a peak in temptation, illusions and feelings of uncertainty regarding your career, travel and learning - and love and sex. Don't invest! 

Cancer   June 21-July 22
Indecision grows. Though your charisma, energy and clout are strong now, it's best to avoid making significant new starts. Instead, further and protect ongoing projects, and/or reprise past opportunities or concerns. Your worries about money reach a peak Monday - wait before you act. Realize that ultimately, your net worth will "outlive" or "outrun" income problems. (1996-2003's losses are long gone.) By Friday/Saturday, you might experience the other end of the worry scale - elation (or illusion!) that your money prospects look so good. Pressures from career, parents and higher-ups dissolve!

Leo   July 23-Aug. 22
Lie low; withdraw from the whirling world. Your total being is seeking rest, emotionally, physically and intellectually. Yield. Rest, eat and drink sensibly, protect your health and your reputation. No one is accomplishing anything lasting before July 10 anyway, so your rest period comes at a perfect time. Contemplate where you've been and where you're going in life. Catch up on neglected duties, especially involving the government, institutions, hospitals, spiritual and management spheres. Your skepticism about someone early week could turn to sweet gullibility by Thursday onward. Maintain balance!

Virgo   Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Happiness arrives! Avoid new starts through July 9. Old friends, old flirts might return for another go-round. Old wishes and desires rise up, too - these are worth looking at, especially if they fit your 2007 theme of relocating, finding a new home, rearranging family matters, changing the basis of your life, etc. (Still, don't act before July 10.) Uncertainties about your job, deeper duties or health (or your relation to a government agency) could arise Sunday/Monday - joy or happy prospects occur in the same zones at week's end. 

Libra   Sept. 23-Oct. 22
Start nothing before July 10, especially in career and status zones. DON'T put your reputation on the line. Handle old or ongoing projects and duties - with a watchful eye. Anticipate supply disruptions, missed appointments, government delays, etc. The next six weeks draw you toward mysteries, secret assignations in politics, power corridors or sex/intimacy (be careful and honest!) research and investigations, and financial commitments - again, wait until after July 9. Social life, wishes for the future, romance, pleasure, children's development - these worry you Sunday/Monday, please you Friday/Saturday - neither extreme is true.

Scorpio   Oct. 23-Nov. 21
A period of hard work ends; the six weeks ahead bring a challenging co-worker or love prospect - diplomacy's best (rather than joining or fighting him/her). June/July bring a mellow mood, cultural events, love, compassion and understanding - you might want to travel afar, deal with foreign-born people, or sign up for higher learning. But don't start new ventures or relationships in any area before July 10. Your energy and charisma soar Sunday night to Tuesday, but uncertainty about career and security reaches a peak - by week's end affection solves anxiety.

Sagittarius   Nov. 22-Dec. 21
Don't start new projects or relationships before July 10, especially in financial, sexual, health or lifestyle areas. The six weeks ahead feature hard work. Uncertainty, indecision and worries about failure haunt intellectual, educational, travel and cultural (wedding?) goals Sunday/Monday. But this is the worst it gets - by Wednesday/Thursday your confidence and energy return, and by Friday/Saturday you feel upbeat about, even fascinated by, your prospects in these same areas. Whoa_both extremes are illusory. All these zones are failure prone 2005-07. Plan a big new start after February 18, 2008! 

Capricorn   Dec. 22-Jan.19
Don't start any new projects or relationships before July 10. New "opportunities" are whirlpools in disguise. But if a former opportunity returns, one you just couldn't grasp the first time around, it could be a good one. An "ex" spouse or business partner could appear, also. Here, love can be revived, but business shouldn't be. The six weeks ahead imbue you with determination, courage and sex appeal. But be cautious this week - Sunday/Monday and Friday/Saturday "fool you" in monetary, financial, investment, sexual and intimate zones: wait for clarity before committing! 

Aquarius   Jan. 20-Feb. 18
Avoid new projects and relationships before July 10. Until then, bend your shoulder to the work at hand - but keep a watchful eye on possible misunderstandings, misread directions, delays, supply disruptions, etc. Another's skepticism greets your dreaminess or inspiration Sunday/Monday. But this person - or another - could sing a different tune late week, as affectionate responses replace dourness. Either way, your inspiration, spirituality and/or fantasy life beg the question: Are you and the world meeting? For six weeks, new vigor, determination - and perhaps conflict - enters your domestic sphere. Happiness Wednesday-Friday!

Pisces   Feb. 19-March 20
Beware new ventures, new propositions, new loves through July 9. Instead, reprise the past (or stick with the loves, pleasures and vacation spots you already know). Joy and pleasure are certain, though! Avoid old, new and ongoing creative projects (painting, writing, etc.) - fruitless directions will pop up like weeds. Uncertainty, doubt (or worse, inflated conviction) about your duties, employment situation, or your spiritual gifts or "position" rise to a peak Sunday/Monday and Friday/Saturday. The first period could disappoint; the second could lure. Be patient, level headed! Higher-up "winks" Thursday/Friday.
