Yogi Berra

Underlying Theme for All the Signs: This week asks that you remember there is a time and a place for everything. You’ve reached the end of a long cycle that’s now coming to a natural conclusion, and you must begin to prepare for the new. Perhaps this involves a lifestyle change that includes more or less involvement with the world at large, persons of a different background, or a shift in career, health, residence or relationship. To adequately prepare for the next step requires an accurate assessment of the past and the recognition of what’s feasibly possible for the future. To manifest what you envision, you must be laser clear about the goal while daily and actively taking the steps necessary to achieve that success. Be aware that opportunity will arrive at the exact time you’re truly ready–when efforts deepen beyond lip service and extend to the inner work that attracts your desires. Old patterns of behavior that keep you in a rut, intolerance for difference and of others, failure to recognize abilities or limitations, or starting a pursuit for all the wrong reasons can indicate you still have farther to go on the journey to understand yourself.
