Horoscopes for a new year

December 31, 2017

Welcome to the Year of Saturn! I'm posting this right on New Year’s Eve from India. I'm spending time with my favorite teacher of all things Saturn. This is the only place on earth I love to get up before sunrise. Austerities can feel like pure bliss when your heart is fully committed. This is the key to workign with the energies of Saturn.

We begin 2018 right on a Full Moon in Cancer opposite Saturn and Venus in Capricorn. It’s an interesting mix of hyper-sensitivity and self-defense. How to gush but still retain your boundaries? How to ask for what you need without fear of seeming too needy or triggering your fear of rejection? How to be vulnerable and self-possessed at the same time? How to balance self-care, family and your emotional needs with the incessant demands of career in an uber competitive, social-media driven crazy world? These are the questions we’re grappling with now under this lunation.

You’ve probably heard that the way you start your year often sets the tone and the template for the duration. If you’d like to work with the energies of the cosmos, rather than against them look to balancing the Cancer-Capricorn polarity in your psyche and your life. Look to which houses these signs rule in your horoscope. If you don’t know, book a private session with me for guidance into the New Year. If you’re ready to dive in and do the real work of Saturn, please join me and Kiki Flynn, Wellness Coach to the stars (including Madonna) for a very powerful 40-Day journey under the wisdom of Saturn, revealing all of his secrets for success. Once you have Saturn as an ally, you truly can move the mountains in your life. LAST 24 HOURS TO JUMP IN. There is only one Diamond package left at the time of this posting, but you can still get in on the others that include discounted readings while they last:
