Your horoscope for July 24 to 30, 2008
According to the mystics, the mind is nothing but a storehouse of karmic impressions. Imagine that, folks.
We can say the same thing regarding astrology, for it is a medium of expression for all karmic events and all of human activity. In our daily lives, we forge the future with our thoughts and actions. We spin our own web of destiny, and it shows up clearly under the looking glass of astrology.
The planets, signs, and houses of the zodiac make up the cosmic alphabet, which a competent astrologer should be able to interpret easily. The positive highlights of your horoscope represent fortunate actions from the past, while negative and heavy indicators represent our indebtedness, and concerns regarding past-life negative behaviour. At different times in our lives, we will receive the positive or negative karma that is destined to come our way. Rather than wring our hands and create a lot of worry, we may want to look at whatever comes our way as a form of grace and an opportunity to work within the laws of compassion and forgiveness.
It’s one of the beautiful things about astrology—we can see the upcoming cycles and be psychologically and spiritually prepared to deal with what we have signed up for this time around. The laws of karma are immutable and exacting as we work with our chains of gold and iron.
We have a good week ahead, dominated by a triangle involving Mars and Jupiter. Planetary triangles represent an accord in which the two planets work together in harmony. Mars and Jupiter are fiery brothers, and lots can happen when these two interact. Mars in Virgo and Jupiter in Capricorn are not the most expressive signs for them. This tells us that we will be in the mood to get things done properly, and that it might take some doing to get it all done. Actually, we see some progress and we may even step back and admire our handiwork.
Make sure that you take some time to enjoy the days. Venus and Neptune are in opposition on July 31, enhancing life in many ways. Our hearts are softened, and we naturally want to share our love; now is the time to do it. Love is in the air, and magic too. Maybe we’ve just been zapped by the amount of sunlight we’re getting.
