June 21, 2024| 6:07 pm (PST) | Keyword: Wrestling

Changes occur on personal level with new initiatives and possible shift in vocation or location. May be overly influenced or involved in confrontation.

The Moon is quickly bringing matters to closure in the sign aligned with career and achievement with events that focus on the rights of employees, evaluation of employees, or making plans and a comparison of strategies. The influence brings to the fore those whose character is austere, hard working, career oriented and perhaps a bit too conservative regardless of age. These may be persons with a background in legal, political or business professions or who work as part of government bureaucracy as clerks, administrators, or law enforcement personnel or careers in accounting or estimating. These are also individuals who’re methodical, organized and purposeful in their method of achieving ambitions and likely to receive a boost from persons who’re older and well-established. However, with a pronounced emphasis on practicality and little interest in pursuits that don’t offer concrete gain, it’s possible that the outlook is much too materialistic. Events that occur are likely to involve Capricorn persons (sun, moon or rising sign) and persons with significant Sagittarius placements.

On a personal level, you may feel overwhelmed and overly influenced by your surroundings and the moods and feelings of those in the environment. This brings the natural inclination to adjust to the demands of others, and the tendency to surrender your power to a significant other, lover or business partner. Quick to express understanding, you’re emotionally giving, especially to immediate family, and you willingly give up some measure of emotional comfort in order to assist those you love. In fact, relationships can take priority, both personal and business, and the interest is to make cooperative relationships work for you.

Because of this, you tend to either attract those in need of assistance or will accomplish your goals with the assistance of others. You may feel emotionally responsible for certain family members, and if you can help you’re likely to do so. Other family members may look to you for guidance or to make important decisions. The health of a family member (usually a parent) may deteriorate and you may provide for his/her needs in some way. Situation can cause you to be indecisive or have a wait-and-see attitude toward the course of action for their care, and the uncertainty leaves you with the inability to form a clear personal direction until more is known.

Positively, you can form beneficial relationships or improve existing ones at this time, and opportunities come to you through others. Consequently, you may seek out activities that you and a partner can join in together. You’ll also encounter people who can assist you in various ways, and will naturally come to your aid to support you both materially and otherwise. Help may arrive without request, but you can also ask for what you need. You may also benefit directly or indirectly through benefits your partner receives. These partnerships can help you to achieve what you can’t do on your own.

Cooperation furthers your chances for successful relationships when involved in negotiations or the need for compromise. The influence emphasizes successful teamwork that links to good colleagues or coworkers, a happy partner, physical union, or an engagement. As a result, your relationships can experience improvement and a good marriage or alliance becomes better.

If you’ve had difficulties with your relationship in the past, you may be able to resolve your differences. If you need help, this is generally an excellent period to seek someone in an advisory capacity or consult a professional such as a lawyer, doctor, counselor or expert in a particular field of interest. Insights from others may offer you knowledge that can be used to make progress with problems or situations. In some cases, you may be involved in discussions or negotiations concerning jointly held finances or property. This is a prime time for financial planning and consolidation, and you may be reviewing a payment plan for debts or planning for future expenditures.

The desire to partner also extends to sexual relationships and can stimulate strong attraction and the motivation to go after what you want. The tendency is to be drawn to certain individuals for reasons you may not clearly understand, and one relationship may be particularly captivating. Relationship choices may be triggered by the passion you feel for a person as the driving force in the romance. But while sexual connection can be more pleasurable, any love relationship that you begin will tend to be more complicated, intense, and make a greater impact, for better or worse. The backstory of this union’s purpose is to give you the opportunity to face your fears, insecurities and psychological complexes.

However, you can demand a great deal from others and some encounters may take the form of conflict. Discord and temper can emerge as you struggle to balance the draw of attraction with the need for self-expression; a conflicting desire for union with the need for freedom. Though generally not combative, you’ll take the offensive if the situation warrants it. Your relationship can be complicated due to issues in your life or attempts to recover from or deal with an emotionally painful relationship. In some cases, you may not benefit from the union because of an overwhelming emphasis on the needs of your partner, especially if forced to give up a lot in order for your partner to gain. The partner may be facing career demands which cause a lapse in the level of commitment or exchange of attention in the marriage or relationship. If dealing with trust issues you may be prompted to seek reassurance or test the level of your partner’s commitment.

The relationship can also become a battleground where control issues instigate the use of fear, intimidation, jealousy or manipulation in an attempt to gain money, sex or power over the other.  If your relationship is unfulfilling, you might limit your involvement, and may decide to withdraw emotionally, if not physically. Even so, you may exhibit contradictory emotions where you expect or demand to be taken care of as proof of love while refusing to commit emotionally or take any responsibility for the other person. This then becomes a one-sided exchange where you take without fear, risk or effort.

Alternatively, you could be socially withdrawn, quiet. moody, suffering from depression and trying to recover from the emotional trauma of your past. You may be secretive or reluctant to openly express yourself or confide solely in one person in depth. Events may trigger past memories that drive old wounds and resentments to the surface in connection to family. If you’re facing difficulty, family members may be unable or unwilling to lend you support. Your response may be to limit family contact or withdraw completely. Children can also be more difficult to deal with, especially if they’re demanding greater independence and you’re not ready for these changes or disapprove of their choices or behavior. If so, disobedience or argumentative responses mark this time frame of minor conflicts. 

You may be facing increasing responsibilities within the home environment that force corrective action if your space is in need of repairs or improvements. Chronic problems will now be annoying, and while repairs may or may not be major, you’ll experience some level of discomfort connected to the process. If your space has been well-maintained, you may focus on routine maintenance or making your environment more comfortable and trying to create the ideal of what your home should be.

On the other hand, you may be uncertain about where you’ll be living in the future or who’ll be living with you. Perhaps you’re considering relocation or a job-related move that may not have an exact destination or time frame. You may decide to look for a new residence even if you don’t know when or if you’ll even move. 

Changes can also occur in the work environment and may be self-initiated or beyond your control. Transitions can create complications, mini crises or disruptions to the normal routine. If bored or restless, you should look for new responsibilities that offer you different challenges. Physical and emotional well-being are directly related to your level of stress on the job, and if you don’t consciously make needed changes, your body may force you to make them through periodic health issues.

The demand to be your authentic self and to express to others who you are can take the form of a creative outlet. Perhaps you’re assertively following your own path or possess the ability to work independently of the views of others, and an aggressive pursuit of your goals reflects a willingness to fight for what you want. You’re more competitive and don’t want your ideas or movement suppressed or restricted. You might wish to use your voice and demand the right to be heard, perhaps in bringing some injustice or swindle to light. While being forceful or abrasive person can call attention, it’s best to use this energy positively, rather than through dominating or controlling others.

If you’re creative, original ideas and innovation in technique can be rewarding. You’re exploring new areas of expertise and will take license with your creations, products or designs, and benefit by trying new styles or genres in your work. The challenge is mustering the discipline needed for tasks you find unappealing.

Overall, a review of the hidden aspects of self may help you come to terms with your emotions rather than repress them. As you learn to protect yourself from emotionally damaging situations, you may see or know more than you were previously aware of. You’re beginning to understand the subtleties, motives and psychological conflicts in yourself and others and the subtle shifts in power and power plays will become more apparent. These insights may come through significant conversations or encounters that have a profound effect upon you.

For some, the awareness of human interaction is the result of training or education such as psychology or metaphysics. If so, issues are not disruptive to your life and may be concepts you grasp intellectually as opposed to emotionally.

The events that occur may do so with speed because the emphasis is on escape, and you may soon receive a message or the answer to any queries. This cycle might also mark the end of an illness and the onset of recovery or the escape from an undesirable situation in which you need to act quickly to free yourself from intolerable conditions. This could signal the loss of a job or circumstances shaken up by new energy. Problems are the result of being too rigid and willing to put up with all sorts of pressures rather than make necessary changes. Though stressful, in retrospect you’ll realize that you’ve gained your freedom.

The keyword for this cycle is wrestling which indicates a struggle and situations where it may be challenging to persevere when you fail to see immediate results. Conflicts are just as likely to be internal as well as with opponents in the external. The influence favors elevation to a certain position of responsibility, but difficulty in retaining it due to a restless spirit that brings conflict with powerful enemies who, without caution, will seek to overthrow.
