South Indian Coffee aka Reason for Living
Cheers and Happy Chinese New Year!
The Fire Monkey is here to bring his feisty tricks and treats into our lives. Very much like Uranus in Aries which continues to bring the erratic and unexpected into our lives, the "change is the only constant" theme continues. Mars in Scorpio is a prime player under this New Moon ( a tight square)... so watch for the shadows of jealousy, competition and hidden enemies. Unconscious subterfuge and power plays can show up where you least expect them. This New Moon in the sign of friendships and goals squaring Mars in Scorpio will deliver messages like: Celebrate your ride or die's! True friends are those want to see you succeed, and bring each other up rather than tear each other down. This lunation will reveal the difference. Real friends are everything in this life. Never take them for granted but do spoil them rotten with all the love and support you've got!
A New P40: TAROT: ICONS AND IMAGES: A 40 DAY JOURNEY OF SEX, GLAMOUR AND ROCK N' ROLL with Laura Kitty Helms and Katelan Foisy starts February 22nd. Registration will be up this week, so be sure to enter your email for more information!
8-14 February 2016:
Aries:
It’s all about your social life, long-term goals and surging popularity this week, Aries. There is so much mixing, mingling and networking going on, that it may be hard to find alone time. The New Moon on Monday is the optimal time for planting your seeds for the next six months of success. There’s a fiery new energy at the ready. Plus, your friends are so there to help you! You’ll be surrounded by your tribe all week long. Plus, Mercury moves into your social realm starting on Friday for the next few weeks, to make sure that you are in constant contact with your people.
Taurus:
Your career takes top priority now, Taurus. There’s a New Moon on Monday at the top of your chart inviting you to set your intentions for the next six months of professional power. The stars are here to support your status and help you rank higher if you’re open to the attention. Mercury, the communication planet, will also be doing your bidding starting on Friday. What is your message? Are you getting it out there in the most authentic and unique way possible? The Moon will move into your stars for the weekend inspiring you to do and be what you love.
Gemini:
Travel fever is calling this week, Gemini. You have been grounding yourself and playing hermit long enough. It’s time to get back to what you love most, roaming and wandering like the glamorous little vagabond you are. The New Moon on Monday sets the stage for your next six months of long-distance travel plans. Your positive energy takes you far and your optimism sees you through any of the temporary glitches along the way this week. Mercury, your ruling planet moves into your house of travel and higher consciousness for a few weeks, starting on Friday. Your mind is expanding and thus your world is opening up.
Cancer:
This week’s New Moon on Monday sets the emotional vibe of the entire week. You’re feeling like it’s time to peel back all of the dead layers and get to something totally new and fresh. The more you clear away the old, the lighter and more inspired you feel. It’s all about making space and letting go this week. Mercury, the communication god, will be moving into your change zone as well starting on Friday. Transformation is a huge and relentless theme this week, Cancer. Why resist the inevitable and cling to something that’s long ago expired. Change is the only constant anyway.
Leo:
You can totally start anew with your beloved this week, Leo. If you’re a solo lion, you can start fresh on the love and dating front in general, compliments of the New Moon. It’s all about setting your intentions for what you want and what you don’t want in your world of relationships. It’s easy to get lost in the world of “others” right now, so be sure to come home to yourself a few times a day. The planet ruling communication, Mercury will be taking residence in your partnership zone as of Friday. Speak your truth and get it off your chest to keep the flow.
Virgo:
Monday’s New Moon invites you to put your attention on your daily schedule, work and wellness. If you’ve been hitting your workaholic mode, this is your chance to get back on track in a way that eliminates stress, worry and other imbalances that make your head spin. You’re the perfectionist of the zodiac, but can push yourself so hard that self-care totally goes out the window. Get back to proper pampering of your weary soul. Your ruling planet (Mercury) will help you integrate the ideal daily schedule, including all your favourite health tonics and other essential rituals that keep you in tip-top shape.
Libra:
Life takes a fabulous turn as early as Monday with the New Moon initiating your love zone. Your heart’s desires become top priority and this is just the beginning of the love story about to unfold over the next six months. Indecision is your only enemy now. It’s time to choose and stick to what you really want. Sitting on the fence keeps is too “lady in waiting” for you. Once you decide, your love life falls into place. The communication planet, Mercury is loving you up and helping you work those conversational charms. You’re simply irresistible as always, libra.
Scorpio:
Privacy is everything to you this week, Scorpio. It just feels so good to hide out at home now, especially on Monday during the low energy New Moon. You need to recuperate and reconnect with your inner world this week. Crawling under the covers and unplugging from the demands of the outer world is totally the thing now. You’re also completely inspired by home improvement ideas now. Decorating, cooking or just lounging around your flat are all perfect remedies to keep you from getting grouchy or reactive. Keep your schedule light and your time at home relaxed-- and ideally unscheduled.
Sagittarius:
Communication is your end all be all at the moment, Sadge. You could feel a bit enslaved by your gadgets under this influence but it’s all good in that your connections and constant contact pay off large. The constant flow is totally your speed anyway. The only problem is slowing down enough to catch your beauty sleep at the end of the day. The New Moon on Monday can help you get clear about where you want to put your mind over the next six months. Writing, school, languages, travel or just blabbing all sound appealing. Now is the time to plant the seeds. Mercurywill be sparking your speedy mind over the next few weeks, starting on Friday.
Capricorn:
Money is the focus of the week, Capricorn. The New Moon on Monday invites you to sit down and make the long, hard and important decisions around your finances. You adore thinking in terms of money and future plans, so this is like a cake walk for you. The only issue is wishing you had more cash to blow on less pragmatic and utilitarian items.. Not a problem, as business is like breathing for you. Plus, you’re a resourceful whiz kid at the moment. Finally, Mercury will be coming to the financial rescue with new money-making schemes starting on Friday.
Aquarius:
The new is here, Aquarius! You’re totally in your element this week, with the New Moon landing in your stars on Monday. Make your wish list early in the week to capitalise on this fabulous energy of potential. Which dreams would you love to see manifest over the next six months? Mercury will also be moving into your stars this week to keep you on your mental toes, brilliant and innovative as ever. Work with your most experimental and even controversial ideas now. Go ahead and test them out and see how far ahead you are of the curve (as usual).
Pisces:
You’re a mystery even unto yourself this week, Pisces. Sometimes you are so good at hiding secrets that even you lost track of what’s a fantasy and what’s reality. Get your dreams and fantasies down on paper before the evaporate yet again, and the gold is lost. The ideas will be flowing and totally avant-garde in the best way possible. It’s just a matter of bringing them to earth for a change rather than keeping them in the world of imagination only. Mercury will help you with articulating your vision in a way that has form and details starting on Friday.
