“I demand of you, and of the whole world, that you show me a generic character — one that is according to generally accepted principles of classification, by which to distinguish between Man and Ape. I myself most assuredly know of none. But, if I had called man an ape, or vice versa, I should have fallen under the ban of all the ecclesiastics. It may be that as a naturalist I ought to have done so.”
— Carl Linnaeus

An emotional entanglement has disappeared as quickly as it appeared. That gives you some evidence that such a thing is possible. Yet you still face the challenge of keeping your emotions flowing and not being distracted with people who have a negative attitude. You have way too much going for you right now to go down anyone’s dark or self-conflicted road. In fact most of the positive gains in your life will come through encountering people who take a distinctly positive attitude, and raising your vibration to the level of a supportive environment. Much of your success in the coming year of your life will be dependent upon your state of mind. Take a self-affirming view and you will invite positive developments into your life. As they say in 12-step programs, this is all about people, places and things.

If Your Birthday is May 23
(The Day of Energetic Transmission) | Gemini Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Today looks like a great day to put any body-based insights to work. This is especially true for anything that seems to have a familial or karmic pattern to it (including how your family has treated sexuality). With this understanding you become free to choose a new way to think (and feel) about your body. This, in turn, can liberate your relationships — particularly the one you have with yourself. You’re closing in on some important achievements; continue taking action and communicating in person with those who can help you move things along.
Written in the Planets
If you’re trying to solve the problem of how to make something work better, today could be the day to find a new approach. Mars in Gemini is mechanically minded to begin with; and Gemini is known for its ability to see more than one option at once. Today, Mars in Gemini conjoins the minor planet Chaos. This isn’t generally the crazy, messy concept of chaos but, rather, the primordial state of infinite creative potential. If you can slow yourself down enough to see past any disorder, that creative place should be readily accessible. Instead of thinking “either/or,” see if a “both/and” approach yields better results.
