Scorpio is followed by Sagittarius and the Sun enters the sign of the archer on November 21 2009 at 8:23 pm PST. Scorpio is the researcher, psychologist, investigator, plumber, spy, power broker, esotericist, and inventor and is symbolically linked to all hidden and complex power structures. Sagittarius is the visionary, teacher, publisher, preacher, scholar, rights activist, lawyer, judge, metaphysician and writer and is symbolically linked to seeing the bigger picture balancing the outer cosmic with the inner spiritual source. Sagittarius sits between two power signs, Scorpio and Capricorn. This is an indication of the inner strength that Sagittarius possesses. Protected on either side yet also challenged by the pressures of the corrupting influences of power, Sagittarius must remain true to a bigger picture, adhering to high principles, upholding a strict code of ethics and respectfully acknowledging the laws.

Those persons, whose expression of Sagittarius is lower, feel they have the right to make their own laws, to bend the rules to their will and use intelligence to undermine verses uphold timeless truths with courage and virtue. The higher expression of Sagittarius is truly the spiritual teacher, philosopher, visionary and the great teacher who acts to teach and lead others by example according to spiritual, natural and social laws and the powerful principles which uphold their integrity. Not surprisingly, the ancients who projected the mythology of the Zodiac onto the heavens depicted Sagittarius as the noble archer whose arrow is aimed at the very center of the Galaxy. How the ancients knew where the Galactic Center was and that there was even a Galaxy and having a center is another question and feature of the adventurous search for knowledge, insight and truth that Sagittarius is all about.

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)    

The winds of change are blowing steadily these days. Where others are experiencing fear, you feel inspired to rise to the occasion. Deep desires to engage passionately in the game mirrors the tone of lovers in hot pursuit of one another. Commitment is the key to winning and you feel the urge and pressure to do so. Whether you are moved by your inner power, by ambition for outer leverage or to know the score, power is on your mind.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)

Passionate changes with significant others of late, rich in depth and scope, are stimulating deep changes in you. Prior attitudes and beliefs are falling like leaves in November. In their place, a new vision is being conceived. It may take weeks and even months for this to become clear, but it will. Anticipate it and do the inner work of affirming your inner strengths and outer will and courage to follow its lead. Changes in you closest relationships, career and life style in general are highlighted.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

A growing urge for a new sense of freedom is guiding your choices. The time has come to align your self with a higher power. What this means exactly is subject to you, your beliefs and your personal destiny. Let go of old habits and attitudes about security. Freedom requires faith and risk. Surrender to your feelings and intuitions and act upon what feels true to you, now.

Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)

The key to overcoming fear is to face it. Sometimes we are directed by the stick of circumstance while at others it is the carrot of ambition, sometimes both. Either way, opportunities to lay claim to powers available to you yet hidden or kept at bay until now are coming your way. It is up to you to see whatever is happening in this light. Be open to the assistance of friends and family and even reach out for it. Yet, honour and accept that the task is yours to fulfill.

Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)

A creative mood continues to guide and inspire you. The inner orientation of this time of year may be a source of mystique, magic and intimacy. Flowing with the seasons, this is your opportunity to explore new reaches of creative possibility. Gaining inspirations from others may be needed however. Open yourself to the brilliance and genius of others. Celebrate the exchange of passion that we are meant to share.

Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)

The time is right to delve into the deeper mysteries of life. Whether you are exploring profound truths in books or venturing out into the night to engage with friends to exchange perceptions and express passions, all things have their time. Meanwhile, consolidating a more reliable foundation now requires that you surrender to a greater flow. New powers are emerging for you to express; reach out to meet with them.

Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

There is a saying that the key to money is having some. Inherent in this statement is the ability to afford to invest. Another interesting statement of truth holds that we cannot afford not to have the best. Again, investment is implied where quality that endures proves to be less expensive in time than bargains that often soon show their shallow worth. So, investment is the word and where and how are important considerations.

Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Pioneering leads and new initiatives are keeping you busy these days. These preliminary steps are linked to travel and adventure and to power. Schemes and dreams are brewing with the fires of ambition beneath them. Facing fears, gaining the necessary training and making the right investments are all part of the plot. The time has come to get out of your own way and let your spirit lead.

Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

A dark time wherein your soul has been tested is shifting into a new light now. Having sympathy and compassion for one’s self is not only good, it is ideal. Yet, do not indulge in self pity. Rather, summon the courage to boldly go where you have not gone before. The time to do so has come. Shifts, changes, challenges and disruptions both within and without are meant to lead you to more solid ground.

Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

The time has come to embark on a journey within. How you choose to do so is up to you. Keeping your health in mind will guide your choices with wisdom. You may also yearn for variety of approach and perspective. Yet, with the stakes as high as they are now you may be far from feeling frivolous. Take your time now to weigh your options carefully before you commit.

Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)

Exploring new horizons requires more focus and concentration. A patient determination to cultivate your personal power and bring it to new heights is important now. This includes learning and gathering new tools and the discipline to do so. Allow the support, challenge and encouragement of others to inspire deliberate action. Honour your own style and allow your individuality to shine all the while.

Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)

Expanding your scope of power requires a new state of balance. As you set your intentions to slowly but surely commit to ascension processes where you will gain new powers and responsibilities, circumstances will shift to support your focus. Do not resist the changes now as the pressures of change will build and push through in the end anyway. Explore the possibilities for new creative expressions of your power. Vision!
