Listen & Be Heard Weekly Archives

I would like to welcome you to another week of self-discovery and universal understanding. You start this week’s forecast of major transit early Thursday morning when Mars, the planet of personal drive and ego energy, at 12¬∫ cancer will turn retrograde, and will stay retrograde until January the 29th of 2008. Mars only goes retrograde every two years. You will experience the coarseness, impatience and irritability of Mars during this retrograde cycle. The influences of a retrograde Mars in the sign of Cancer will create aggressive acts around the home. Avoid being possessive, and aggressive acts of emotional control for personal gratification, while Mars is retrograde in Cancer, or your actions could easily lead to violence around the home.

The lesson to be learned while Mars is retrograde in Cancer is that it’s your responsibility to provide the necessary positive actions which will produce good home conditions. This must be done, regardless of whether there is any obvious appreciation or not. Mars, the planet of war, will stay retrograde in Cancer, the sign of domestic and soul foundation, until New Year’s Day 2008; then it will back into the sign of Gemini. Here the warring planet will stir up communications and chaos with brothers and sisters, relatives, neighbors, and people you are in daily contact with. While Retrograde Mars is transiting Gemini, you will need to develop patience and diplomacy. You should guard your words and what you write when you are communicating.

On Friday Mercury, the planet of communications, at 7¬∫ Scorpio will sextile Saturn, the planet of restrictions, at 7¬∫ Virgo. The energy of this sextile of Mercury with Saturn will have your mind on serious concerns. Today you will work very carefully on any mental task that requires precise thinking and concentration. This is a good time to look around with a critical eye and see what needs to be changed or corrected in your relationship with your environment. Your mind is on serious concerns and the details of any situation. Sometimes this influence can get you lost in the finer points of your life and you may not be able to see the forest for the trees. Today?Äôs conscious awareness will create intelligent self-expression.

On Monday Venus, the planet of personal relationships and artistic expression, at 12º Libra will square Mars, the planet of personal energy and ego drive, at 12º Cancer. The energy of the Venus/Mars square will create a day full of forceful emotions in your personal relationships. This transit will arouse your interest in the physical side of sexual relationships. Today you feel the sexual passion and you need to be satisfied and released. If your personal relationship is in trouble, you will probably have arguments and discord, all arising from unexpressed sexuality. If you are not in a sexual relationship, you will probably be looking for one today. Just remember that relationships based only on physical attraction are not very discriminating or objective. You need more than physical attraction to maintain balance in your personal relationship.

Also on Monday Mercury, the planet of communication, at 12¬∫ Scorpio will trine Mars, the planet of Ego drive and your personal energy, at 12¬∫ Cancer. The energy expressed from this trine of Mercury with Mars will give your mind the power to focus on expressing your desires. Today you will have no problem speaking your mind. You will feel quite confident in your beliefs and views against anyone?Äôs criticism. This is a good day for pubic speaking. You will seem to have more confidence in what you have to say, and you feel less fearful of opposing views. So express yourself today, especially in relationship issues. Today let your thoughts be heard, that?Äôs if you want the respect and understanding that you deserve in your personal relationship.
