The Mountain Times • Sept. 11-17, 2019 MOTHER OF THE SKYE • 37 Aries March 21 - April 20 Who knows what will come out of this? You’re the one with all the power in the situation, so don’t let anyone trick you into thinking that you need to go out of your way. I see some potential for other people’s motives to be a little twisted. You might want to keep your eye on that. What also seems clear is that you need to be pumping up the volume on your work; not just in the way of outer success, but from the point of view of what purpose does it serve relative to the greater whole. Money? Fame? They don’t cut it in the long run. It comes down to love at the end of the day. Taurus April 21 - May 20 People don’t give you the credit you deserve. Either that or they have blinders that prevent them from seeing who you are. Some of you feel unworthy due to this lack of recognition. Others don’t give a hoot what others think because deep down inside, you know who you are. At this point things are coming together in a way that will show the world how much you have to offer. Be prepared to enter the limelight and watch people get blown away by your accomplishments. Whatever you’ve been working on is ready to come to fruition, and when it does, everything will change. Gemini May 21 - June 20 Things that have been in the works for four or five years are just about ready to hatch. You’ve made it this far. Keeping up the good work is where it’s at. The expression, “There’s many a slip between the cup and the lip,” is well suited to your current affairs. This means that even though things are pretty much ripe, you need to remain vigilant as you cross the finish line. Expect detractors to show up to bollix things up, and/or, challenges and snafus that serve to distract you and rattle your confidence. For the next month or so, keep your eye on the prize and don’t fall asleep at the switch. Cancer June 21 - July 20 You’ve undergone a deep metamorphosis in the last year or so. Your values, your work, your sense of self, and your relationship dynamics have shifted in more ways than one. With what’s fallen away, the sense of unknowing has left you wondering what’s next. When things shift like this, it takes time for life to replenish us. You can run around filling the void with one thing or another, but it doesn’t always work. In some cases, you know enough to wait on the will of Heaven. Be wary of the need to grasp at straws. At a major milestone, quick fixes don’t go with the territory. Leo July 21 - August 20 Only you can own the fact that this is taking you to a deeper place. If the changes of the last year have made you realize how fragile life is, grab yourself by the horns and remember that everything has a limited life span, and “nothing gold can stay.” When the rug gets pulled out from under us it’s best to hold on and wait for the next phase of our journey to materialize. What they don’t tell us in school is that we get just so much time to do certain things. When the jig is up, we need to learn how to stand on the shoulders of every experience and move on from there. Virgo August 21 - September 20 This is one of those times when a deeper look at yourself is in order. I say this because whoever you thought you were, or think you are, is gone with the wind. There are moments when you are more than clear about this, and the idea that you’ve lived this long and still don’t have the answer makes you nervous. Don’t let it get to you. At times like this what’s really happening is, you’re getting closer to the truth. So the question is, when you hit the bottom line where do you go from there? The only way out is up. Raise your consciousness high enough to let leaps of faith lead the way. Libra September 21 - October 20 There’s lots of last-minute stuff adding to an already over the top schedule. Things would be easier if you had some help, or if others didn’t keep bailing out. Your tendency to feel like it’s your job to keep things together makes it hard to cope with situations where everything is nuts. Give yourself permission to ask for support if you need it. It might also make sense to let people have it if they’re too spaced out to notice that they’re expecting too much. It’s OK to be less than perfect. And, in case you haven’t noticed, life always hits a tipping point a month before your birthday. Scorpio October 21 - November 20 You’re in one of those phases where the next round of inspiration is nowhere in sight. When things get like this it can be depressing. We start to wonder, “Why does nothing seem to be working?” or, “Is there more to life than this?” This is where we start to look around, wishing that life would take us deeper into the mystery. The daily grind may have its good points but when you wake up feeling empty inside, filling the Void becomes an issue. This time the cure for what ails you, ain’t “out there”. Settle down and figure out how to pull your inspiration from within. Copyright - Cal Garrison: 2019: © Sagittarius November 21 - December 20 You are doing better than ever. In so many ways, your story looks absolutely wonderful. As the goodness and blessings pile up, part of you wonders when, or if, the other shoe will drop. In some cases this trepidation centers on how to remain in control in your relationships. You’ve got it made in many ways, but old stories haunt you with the thought that this bubble could burst at any moment. When things get like this, it’s best to haul back and remember that there are only two emotions on this planet: love and fear. The message is; don’t let fear overtake love and ruin your relationship. Capricorn December 21 - January 20 ou’re pretty sure of yourself. There’s Ynothing wrong with that; it’s good to be clear about your position. As the next few months unfold that sense will be validated by external circumstances. In a few months, the long awaited dream could be in your pocket. Part of you knows this, and can feel it – but deep down inside you are just as aware of all the things that you keep well hidden. In your private moments, you wonder if those issues will spoil the party. It might be time to bring them to light, because they will bring you down if you continue to let them run you from within. Aquarius January 21 - February 20 ou have been spinning your wheels in Ymore ways than one. The deeper part of you is dying to settle into doing things that mean something. The everyday routine pays the bills, but your heart and soul are elsewhere, wishing you could do your own thing. It looks to me like that possibility is right around the corner. If you’re hesitant about taking time out, or even quitting your post and going after your heart’s desire, don’t let your money issues keep you stuck here. From what I can see, a whole new ballgame is on the menu, and it will mark the beginning of the rest of your life. Pisces February 21 - March 2 At this point you have more than one option. Deciding which way to turn is the kicker. After more than your share of difficulties, feeling confident about your choices isn’t easy. Others have their opinions. Being swayed this way and that is a pitfall. The way everyone else sees it has nothing to do with you; as a matter of fact, it could have too much to do with them, and their interests. If something looks like a rat and smells like a rat, it probably is one. Now would be the time to keep your own counsel and trust your innate intuition, and your instincts to be your guide. Till death do us part This week’s horoscopes are coming out under the light of a void-of-course, Capricorn Moon. This week, I have done a bunch of readings for people who are wrestling with the age-old question of what to do about their relationships. As you can imagine, this topic comes up all the time. We have been educated to view this area of our lives with rose colored glasses. The standard take Mother’s Celestial Inspirations By Cal Garrison PETRA’S Wellness Studio on the subject is that we grow up and at a certain point in time, the perfect person comes along to make our life complete. We fall in love, get married, and stay together with our one and only, until death do us part. This belief is entrenched in the collective consciousness. All of us are convinced that it happens to everyone. If you stop to look around, that’s ridiculous, because it doesn’t happen that way — to anyone. The model of what happened between us and our parents holds huge clues as to what our adult relationships will look like. The horoscope reveals everything about that, if you know what to look for. I have also noticed that people with Aries rising wind up alone at the end of the day. If they do find themselves in a relationship they have to be with someone who doesn’t need them and/or, with someone who loves the fact that they are so totally independent. To sum up it up: not all of us came here to mate. Relationships have a life-span. Some last as long as it takes for them to brush shoulders at a cocktail party. Some are one-night-stands. Some last for a few weeks or months. Others can last for a few years, or go on for 10 or 15 years. Sooner or later, these connections reach an impasse, or a point where staying together makes it impossible for each individual to be who they are. At these junctures, the “till death do us part” concept, and the belief in the one and only inevitably causes them to do their best to make it work. They spend a fortune on marriage counselors, without realizing that they have completed their Karma together and any attempt to make it work is counterproductive. Doing so interferes with their spiritual growth — not only that, it holds up the line — because another partner, with whom they have made a contract, is waiting in the wings to come in and teach them a little more about love, and about themselves. If we hold on to the belief that we’re here to stick it out no matter what, one way or another we wind up killing each other, and we miss the lesson. I invite you to take what you can from this week’s ‘scopes.
