Predictions for the period of March 16-31, 2014

 ARIES (March 20-April 18)

Time to take a break from your usual routine. Bring some spontaneity into your life.  You will be surprised by how much progress you will make on that big project once you stop trying to do things the way you always have. 

TAURUS (April 19-May 19)

Double check your work, look back on past plans, review the instructions, you may have missed something.  Don’t ignore that nagging feeling you have been experiencing.  Make sure you don’t overlook an important detail and you won’t be disappointed.

GEMINI (May 20-June 19)

Someone close to you needs your advice. The good news is that now is the perfect time for you to give it.  Draw on that energy and clarity you have been feeling lately and share it. A few words of encouragement from you can help bring out the best. 

CANCER (June 20-July 21)

How do you feel about change?  Is it something you embrace or do you fight change with all that you have got?  Don’t dwell on the past, learn from it and then use those lessons to help you pick the path that will lead to long term success.

LEO (July 22-August 21)

It’s time to get real; you may just be fooling yourself.  Ask yourself what you truly want.  While it may seem easier to keep charging forward without thinking but in the long run, is it truly working for you.  Take a moment and consider what you should do.

VIRGO (August 22- September 21)

It looks like you will soon leave for a trip.  Don’t plan out every detail.  Let the universe take the reins for a bit and give in to experiencing something different in a new environment.  Each day is an adventure.  Let your natural curiosity be stimulated.

LIBRA (August 22- September 21)

It’s time to unplug… at least for half a day.  Take a break from your cell phone, your twitter, the Internet in general.  Go to the beach or on a hike.  Reconnect with nature.  Some time “off the grid” will help you plan your next steps.

SCORPIO (October 22- November 20)

Like many at this time, you are trying to decide if you should move forward on the traditional route or if you should do it your own way.  Find the balance between the traditional and your “out of the box” approach.  Find your future in the lessons of your past.

SAGITTARIUS (November 21- December 20)

You may be thinking more with your heart than your head.  Use your best judgment, and stop giving someone close to you the “benefit of the doubt.”  You are a friendly and open person, but are you confusing your providing support with being taken advantage.

CAPRICORN (December 21-January 19)

Stop being so hard on yourself.  It is possible to look at your current situation as a fresh start rather than feeling defeated.  Each new day is filled with new opportunities.  Rather than focus on what you need, try thinking of what you can accomplish with what you have.

AQUARIUS (January 20-February 18)

Clear your mind, Aquarius.  You will soon face an important decision.  Weigh your options and decide what needs to be left behind as you move forward.  You will see the people in your life in a different light.    

PISCES (February 19-March 19)

Build up your karma points.  Donate your time or some money to a person or cause you believe in.  You will be surprised the return on your investment.

Dream Analysis: Shuffling Cards Leads to the Death Card

Roger: I dreamed I was sitting at the table with my family playing cards.  As I shuffled the cards, I saw that some of them seemed to be stuck together with glue, and I had to pry them apart.  No one else seemed to notice, so I continued shuffling and dealt the cards.  My sister wasn’t playing with the family.  She said the game was a waste of time and I was angry that she wouldn’t join us.

Eric:  Your mind often tries to connect your feelings, concerns, even your intuition to familiar symbols and situations.  To dream of shuffling cards, correlates with your ability to strategize and plan.  You are trying to develop a plan to solve a current situation.  When you dream about shuffling cards it speaks of your indecision.  Rather than act, you are shuffling through the possibilities.  Often your mind uses a play on words to express what you are feeling, so the fact that the cards are stuck means that you are feeing “stuck.”  You are trying to think of options and make a plan to move forward.  Try as you might, you are not finding the correct solution and thus you feel stuck.  

People in dreams are a very personal symbol.  To some, the sister would represent playful youth but for you it is different.  You were angry that your sister wouldn’t join in your strategizing and possibly resentful that she doesn’t need to plan a way out the way you do.  No one in your family noticed that the cards were stuck, meaning that you feel your need to plan and get out of the situation is not completely understood by those around you.

Turning to the Tarot, I pulled the Death Card, the Eight of Cups and the Six of Wands.  The Death card is nothing to be afraid of; in fact in this circumstance it is very helpful.  It symbolizes the end of one situation and the beginning of a new adventure.  The Eight of Cup is upside down, a symbol that you know it is time to walk away from a situation that is not working.  The Six of Wands stands for victory as a result of action.  Together the three cards show that the you are moving in the right direction, and that you will be successful in achieving your goals.  Keep at it and don’t be discouraged.

Roger:  That is very helpful.  I have been trying to find a new job for several months now.  It is hard to look for a new job after hours while working at a full time that I hate.  It takes so much planning and sneaking around to go to interviews and return calls employers while I am working.  My sister has been very successful with long term employment that seemed to come easily for her, so I guess part of me resents that.

Dreams are not designed to give you the right answer for the situation.  Deep down inside, you know what is best.  Your dreams are simply a way to access what you know is right as are most comfortable doing.

Predictions for the period of March 1-15, 2014

ARIES (March 20-April 18)
It is time for you to wake up, be alert and open to new experiences.  Things tend to go in cycles.  You are nearing the end of your current cycle, and will start a new phase soon.  Realize that you are stronger, wiser and more experienced as a result of the past.  Things are looking up.

TAURUS (April 19-May 19)
Be honest with yourself.  You may be putting way too much value on something or someone.  It seems like you can’t go a day without it, but It is time to let it go.  Try to see things for what they truly are, not the way you want them to be.  You will be happier as a result.

GEMINI (May 20-June 19)
 You are overflowing with energy right now, Gemini.  Channel this energy into something new, be it a new romantic relationship, closer friendship or creative endeavor.  Don’t be afraid to express yourself.  Listen to your intuition and you cannot go wrong.      

CANCER (June 20-July 21)
Now is not the time to pull away from everyone, instead seek out company.  A conversation with someone from your past brings unexpected news that sparks your creativity. It is fine to feel a little nostalgic and remember the happy times.

LEO (July 22-August 21)
You may have experienced a minor setback, but you are not letting it stop you.  It’s easy for you to charge forward because you know what you want, but others around you may not be as fired up.  Be careful not to cut too many corners.  While this usually works for you, this time there’s no guarantee.

VIRGO (August 22- September 21)
You will soon be tempted to be bad, and do something a little outside the confines of polite society.  Like a rebellious teenager you are exploring your limits.   Two things will help you from taking things too far: your own intuition and remembering lessons from your past.

LIBRA (August 22- September 21)
You may feel trapped but realize that you have a choice.  There is a way out from under the person or organization that seems to be controlling you.  Try using positive affirmations.  Tell yourself that you are the best and keep smiling.  Attitudes are contagious.

SCORPIO (October 22- November 20)
It is time to change the way you think about some of your spending, at least for a little while.  Putting away a little extra in savings or making a safe investment might be a good idea.  Think before you make another purchase or loan money.    

SAGITTARIUS (November 21- December 20)
Getting what you want will not be accomplished by magic.  Get up off the couch and take action.  You have been feeling more positive and upbeat lately; little things that used to annoy you no longer bother you now.  Make a thoughtful investment in yourself, and you can’t go wrong.

CAPRICORN (December 21-January 19)
You may be feeling a little bored and restless, but don’t lose sight of appreciating those around you.  Is there an older figure – family member, friend, boss or romantic partner, who sometimes goes above and beyond to help you out?  Don’t let your boredom make you appear ungrateful. 

AQUARIUS (January 20-February 18)
Now is the time to take a chance.  Combine all that you know with a little bit of the luck that surrounds you at the moment.  Tell yourself that you are confident and in control as you enter into a new phase in your life.  You are on the right path.

PISCES (February 19-March 19)
You may be wondering why something that seemed to work in the past no longer seems to be working.  It is time to reassess your approach and make a change.  Get back in touch with what made you feel happy and excited.  You can feel that way again, but not by repeating the same actions over and over.
