ROBIN ARMSTRONG’S ZODIAC PREDICTIONS FOR 2012

ARIES:  March 21 – April 20 

2012 will be a year of excitement in the midst of obstacles. When the door gets closed in front of you, you will find another way, a better way. If you find something very special to do, do it yourself. The more people that get pulled in, the more difficult accomplishments will become. Dealing with authority and karmic consequences will increase hardships. Independence and freedom of expression will be your strong suit.

Your most stressful times will be from July 3 to Aug. 23, and from Nov. 17 to Dec. 25. Your most harmonious times will be from Oct. 7 to Nov. 17. There will be no excessively powerful time this year as Mars will not enter Aries.

Special Focus:

If you are an Aries born between Apr. 13 and 20 then it will seem like responsibilities are piling up on you. You will feel like making a big move or running away but don’t. This pressure will last from Jan. 1 to Oct. 5. You have too much to lose to try and get away quickly. You need to hold steady and bide your time. Wait until Oct. 5 when the pressure will start lifting before you make your next move. Until then you do not need more time demands or commitments.

 

TAURUS:  April 20  -  May 21

The first half of the year will bring good and the ability to spontaneously take the initiative. Just go with the flow. The summer will also be positive and promising. Enjoy yourself! There is no need to overdo things or over-extend your investments. Simple moderation will make the most progress. In the fall you will feel somewhat hemmed in and will have to slow down, so make the most of your time until then.

Your most stressful times will be from Aug. 23 to Oct. 7. Your most harmonious times will be from Jan.1 to July 3, and from Nov 17 to Dec. 25. There will be no excessively powerful time this year as Mars will not enter Taurus.

Special Focus: Jupiter travels right across Taurus during the first six months of the year. This is the luckiest time in twelve years for all Taureans. Opportunities are knocking all around you. It is important that you reach out and take advantage of them. New horizons are beckoning. Go for them! Things will slow down in the fall, so strike while the going is good!

 

GEMINI:  MAY 21  -  JUNE 21

It will seem like you are walking on eggshells during the first half of the year. Mars will be squaring your sign and it will increase aggravation and diminish patience. This will be an accident or argument prone six months. Work hard, and drive carefully. Keep your thoughts to yourself. Rarely does any good come out of anger. Do not contend. A little workout in the morning could take the pressure off. The last half of the year will be easier but associates might be less reliable. If you don’t force issues, you will get by as well as possible.

Your most stressful times will be from Jan. 1 to Jul. 3, and from Oct. 7 to Nov. 17. Your most harmonious times will be from Jul. 3 to Aug. 23, and from Dec. 25 to the end of the year. There will be no excessively powerful time this year as Mars will not enter Gemini.

Special Focus: If you were born between May 23^rd and 27^th then 2012 will be a year filled with temptations and illusions. You will be confused and disoriented. Avoid dependencies. Strive to keep things simple and self reliant. Any big scheme will spell trouble for you. It would be better for you if you could remain somewhat invisible! This is not a good time to speculate or invest.

 

CANCER: JUNE 21 – JULY 23

New opportunities will arise for most Cancers and you would be wise to take advantage of them. The challenge will be to make the most of the new opportunities without threatening what you already have. Progress in moderation. If you want to start a new business, start it as a hobby business while keeping your present job. Social networking will get you out of a shell and usher in new friends. Don’t talk about your worries or problems. Accentuate the positive.

Your most stressful times will be from Jul. 3 to Aug. 23, and from Nov. 17 to Dec. 25. Your most harmonious times will be from Jan. 1 to Jul. 3, and from Aug. 23 to Oct. 7. There will be no excessively powerful time this year as Mars will not enter Cancer.

Special Focus: Those Cancers born between June 21 and July 1 will encounter much unexpected change. You are likely to be let down by someone and confronted by someone else. The solution is to hold your ground, be true to yourself, and let go of whatever no longer belongs, even if it is one of the kids! If you take care of things yourself and avoid leaning on unreliable people, you will get through this.

 

LEO: JULY 23  -  AUGUST 23

2012 will be another positive year for Leos. There will not be any significant adversity arising around you. If there is a problem it is likely to be a problem of too much rather than too little. If you eat too much, the waistline will show it. If you drink too much you will embarrass yourself. Avoid speculation! There is no need for arrogance. Stay cool and good things will come your way.

Your most stressful times will be from Aug. 23 to Oct. 7, and from Dec 25 to the end of the year. Your most harmonious times will be from Jul. 3 to Aug. 23, and from Oct. 7 to Nov. 17. There will be no excessively powerful time this year as Mars will not enter Leo.

Special Focus: If you were born between Jul. 23 and Aug. 1 then 2012 will be a refreshingly innovative year, until the fall when responsibilities and time demands will increase. Until then you should make the most of things. If a chance for excitement and adventure comes your way, go for it! Even if it means going on your own, you will benefit from it.

 

VIRGO: AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 23

The Force will be with you this year, at least for the first half of it. If you have something that you need to do, do it! This is not the time to ask for permission. It is the time to set things in motion. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. If a challenge arises it will take your initiative to resolve it. Misunderstandings may cause interference in the summer and fall. Then you will have to adapt and make adjustments.

Your most stressful times will be from Oct. 7 to Nov. 17. Your most harmonious times will be from Aug. 23 to Oct. 7, and Nov. 17 to Dec. 25. Your most powerful and energetic time will be from Jan. 1 to Jul. 3 when Mars travels through Virgo.

Special Focus: Those Virgos born between Aug. 23 and 26 will run into complications and confusion this year. Great expectations will lead to great difficulties. Your will seem to be lost in a fog. Don’t get fanatical! Slow down and maintain a low profile. Don’t make big promises or big investments. Keep it simple and self reliant and the complications will eventually fade away on their own. Confusion and dependency will be the problems. Simplicity, self reliance and humility will be the solutions.

 

LIBRA: SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 23

This year will be a year of contrasts for most Librans. You are being challenged to sort out what is valid and what is not valid in your life. It is time to move on to bigger and better things, but this is going to take some effort and a new level of commitment on your part. Be responsible and maintain self control. If you have to let go of the past then take a deep breath and don’t look back.

Your most stressful times will be from Nov. 17 to Dec. 25.Your most harmonious times will be from Oct. 7 to Nov. 17, and from Dec. 25 to the end of the year. Your most powerful and energetic time will happen between Jul. 3 and Aug. 23 when Mars travels through Libra.

Special Focus: If you were born between Oct. 17th and  23^rd then 2012 will be the year of decisions. You will feel pressured and you will be inclined to take a serious approach. The solution to inertia and depression will be to make a bigger effort. You will be defining your goals and setting priorities for many years to come. Complete what you can. Every ending brings a new beginning.

 

SCORPIO: OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 22

A new understanding is dawning, a new perspective on how and what to achieve over the next six years. This will not be a year to lead with simple initiative or force. You must lead with this new understanding before things will align correctly. It is not the others in your way that matters, but rather your approach to them. positive momentum will mark the last half of the year, if you have understood properly.

Your most stressful times will be from Dec 25 to the end of the year. Your most harmonious times will be from Jan. 1 to July 3 and from Nov. 17 to Dec. 25. Your most powerful and energetic time will be from Aug. 23 to Oct. 7 when Mars will travel through Scorpio.

Special Focus: If you were born between Oct. 23 and Nov. 1 then this will be a year of increasing commitments and responsibilities. You are about toe define your goals in a way that will affect you for the next thirty years. Do not run from commitments. Try to select the one’s that you really want. What you commit to will gain roots and grow.

 

SAGITTARIUS: NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 22

This year there will be significant pressure on Sagittarians. You will be over extended and trying to do too much, especially during the first half of the year. Let us call it sweat equity, but the pressure will cause you to question why you are doing what you are doing. If you get tired or angry you will lose! A new outlook is required. A way to see what will take you in a direction you really want to go. The tension will ease off during the last half of the year.

Your most stressful times will be from Jan. 1 to July 3. Your most harmonious times will be from Jul. 3 to Aug. 23, and from Dec. 25 to 31. Your most powerful and energetic time will be from Oct. 7 to Nov. 17when Mars will travel through Sagittarius.

Special Focus: If you were born between Nov 22 and 25, then this will be a year of unreliable associations. You will be gullible and inclined to over dedicate to the wrong people. Don’t make promises! Big schemes and dreams will spell trouble for you. The challenge is to be self reliant and move away from dependencies. Keep it simple! Don’t try to explain!

 

CAPRICORN: DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 20

This year you will need to be true to yourself and to rely on yourself. Even thought there will be some unexpected changes of direction, this year is filled will opportunities to improve your situation. The challenge will be to let go of what and who no longer belongs and to hold steady to what and who is true. If it were easy, it wouldn’t mean anything! This means that you probably have to do it yourself!

Your most powerful and energetic time will happen between Nov. 17 and Dec. 25 when Mars travels through Capricorn. Your most stressful times will be from Jul. 3 to Aug. 23. Your most harmonious times will be from Jan. 1 to Jul. 3, and from Aug. 23 to Oct. 7.

Special Focus: If you were born between Jan 13 and 20 then this will be a year of serious effort when you will have to adjust your goals to the needs of the time. If you are trying to escape this will cause depression, but if you are prepared to make an effort, this will be the tide that leads to fortune. Are you worth the effort? Sometimes one step back can lead to ten steps forward.

 

AQUARIUS: JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 19

The first half of the year Aquarians will be inclined to over-do things. You will exaggerate your sense of importance. This could lead to misunderstandings and a lot of waste. A little moderation will go a long way. During the last half of the year you will be more spontaneous and naturally fortunate. Summer will be a good time to travel and network.

Your most stressful times will be from Aug. 23 to Oct. 7. Your most harmonious times will be from Jul. 3 to Aug. 23, and from Oct. 7 to Nov. 17.. Your most powerful and energetic time will happen between Dec. 25 and 31 when Mars travels through Aquarius.

Special Focus: Those of you born between Jan. 11 and 20 will find that most of 2012 will be positive and possibly even overindulgent. You will coast through the first nine months, but you will hit the wall on October. Responsibilities will catch up to you. There will be a need to make new commitments in the fall. It is going to demand more effort and time from you. This is dealable. Be prepared!

 

PISCES: FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20

New visions and positive opportunities will surface in the first half of the year. Expect some resistance and a greater demand on your energy output. Opportunities surface but so will the competitions for your time. The tide will turn in early July and it will be easier for you to get thing done. As you start to relax it will be more difficult to decide which things to do.

 

 

Your most stressful times will be from Jan. to Jul. 3 and from Oct. 7 to Nov. 17. Your most harmonious times will be from Aug. 23 to Oct. 7, and from Nov. 17 to Dec. 25. There will be no most powerful or energetic phase this year Mars will not travel through Pisces.

Special Focus: If your birthday is between Feb. 19 and 23, then 2012 promises to be a year of adventure and romance! Neptune will move into Pisces, bringing with it new perceptions and a renewed faith in yourself. This is a vision quest year. The peony is blossoming. The old is dissolving. Don’t look back! A new direction is emerging. Are you ready?

You are Scared Purpose by Jeff Brown

You are Sacred Purpose. You are not your shame, your fears, your addictions, your games, your guilt, the internalized remnants of negative messaging… You are not your resistance to your true path … You are not your self-doubt… You are not your self-distraction patterns. You are not your escape hatches… you are not your pessimism about a life of meaning and purpose. You are not here merely to survive and endure.

 

Hospitality to the Self by Oriah Mountain Dreamer

Every once in a while I come across a phrase, a way of wording something, that changes my thinking, shifts my imagination and lets me approach the familiar a little differently. Recently, I experienced just such a shift around my ideas of self-care and self-love. Now, I’m all for both, and I do think loving and caring for the self gives us the resources to be more loving and caring with others. But sometimes- when I’m tired or ill or busy- I have trouble sifting through all the available options…

READ: Keep the Money Peace

Keep the Money Peace
How to create peace out of potentially difficult money situations this holiday season

By Christine Arylo

When you get down to what separates great, long-lasting partnerships from ones that start with the best intentions but fizzle out over time, there are a few very basic rules and behaviors that while seemingly common sense, most people don’t have a clue how to go about.

One of the most vital is HONESTY. When life is smooth, honesty is easy. It’s when the bumps come up that the temptation to fib, to disguise or avoid the truth seem like the simplest path. But over time, little lies  build to bigger lies and resentment – neither of which you want hanging around your relationship.

Especially with the holiday’s coming up, you could find yourself in all kinds of sticky situations that take your peace on earth and turn it into a whopping fight.

Here are some simple ways to make sure you keep Money Peace flowing in your relationships this holiday season:

Say You…

• Spend a chunk of change without consulting your partner
• Blow the budget you both agreed to
• Put something on credit when you’ve agreed you are paying off your debt

What NOT to Do…

1. Hide the bill and pray he/she never finds out.

2. Feel guilty, wait for them to figure it out and beg for forgiveness.

3. Sneak your misdemeanor into another conversation or get to them while they are busy or distracted.

4. Fess up but slough it off as not a big deal, you’ll find the money somewhere, after the holidays!

To Create Money Peace…

1. Admit to yourself that you acted outside of the agreements you had with your partner. You have to accept responsibility with yourself that your action was outside of either a stated or implied agreement (we always recommend having explicit agreements about money choices.) Face the music. Say out loud to yourself, “I chose to XX and I know that my action was outside of our agreements / expectations of each other.” And then take a deep breath (don’t skip the breath, it’s important to releasing your own emotions!) Coming clean with yourself will feel good and erase some of the guilt or apprehension. You can’t be honest with your partner if you aren’t first honest with yourself.  

2. Plainly and succinctly take responsibility with your partner and then tell them the facts.  This is not the time to go into some long story to justify your actions. Just own what you did, not with guilt but with honesty. First, ask for his/her attention to talk about something important. Second, state that you broke an agreement. And third, tell them the specifics. “Joe, I broke our agreement about making big purchases without talking to you about it. I bought XX today for $XX.” Then shut up.

3. Let your partner react. Before you get to the “Why” (which in your mind may either have been a good or bad reason) your partner will need to have their emotional response. Seriously, it’s the least you can do. Your job is just to listen. Let them have whatever feeling they have. Don’t try and defend yourself, unless you want to create a fight. This is also not the time to explain why. Just listen. If in your partner’s reaction, they ask why, include your response as part of step four, after you own it. (Note to Partner… You are allowed to honestly react but not to bludgeon, scream, attack, tear apart or try and make your partner – who is trying to be honest with you — feel guilty or ashamed. You can be angry but you still owe this person your respect and unconditional love. Be angry at the action, not the person… and DON’T take it personally, their action was not a personal attack on you.)

4. Own your action again, apologize for breaking the agreement and then, finally, you can share… not your defense but your heart.  Your simple response is, “You are right. I acted outside of our agreement. I am sorry.” Let that apology land. Then take a breath and say, “I’d like to share why I made this decision…” and then share with them, from your heart what motivated you to make the choice to spend money this way. Be vulnerable. Do not get defensive. Do not bring up any of their actions from the past to throw in their face. Remember, the two of you are on the same side, and have committed to helping each other be the best people you can be.

5. Create Conscious Next Steps.

          i.  Discuss the “Now what?” Come to agreement on how you manage any financial stress this may cause, and work together to make it work.

         ii.  Create an agreement or modify the previous one. Converse about what really works for you both and talk about it until you both feel really good.

        iii.  State your agreed to expectations out loud. This will make sure there is no confusion, and will eliminate the need for any secrets.

And my favorite last step to this whole process…

Pinky Swear on your agreement and then seal it with a smooch!
