With your ruling planet Saturn now firmly in your sign, hopefully you’re beginning to feel considerably more like yourself. This week looks to present a fair few opportunities to rock this new you out on the town and dazzle (or at least entertain) your friends. Just remember that this is territory you’re still exploring, and don’t rush into anything if you feel too uncomfortable.

Planet Waves Weekly Horoscope for Jan. 4, 2018, #1183 | By Amy Elliott
Aries

Aries (March 20-April 19) — Remember that you’re human, and make room for your vulnerability. It’s not possible to barrel along at full speed every day — if we could do that, we wouldn’t be alive. Allow yourself the capacity to make mistakes, change your mind and wind down occasionally. Above all, be clear about how you feel. This takes true courage, and if you make this honesty a principle by which you openly live, others will surely admire and follow your example. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“One’s relationship to change is the underlying reality that determines how one handles transits. This relationship counts for a lot now, and you would be wise to bring it to full awareness. What you’re currently experiencing is the culmination of six years of nonstop and ever-increasing energy. All of that has been excellent preparation. Now, you’re experiencing the actual threshold, the invocation of your new life.”

Taurus

Taurus (April 19-May 20) — There are indications this week that a relationship issue may not be quite as hard work as it appears. One thing you’ll need to do is to ensure you’re fully present for any important conversation. Even if your interpretation of an issue seems obvious to you, there may be something you’re not noticing. Slow down, give others time to talk, and listen carefully. It will likely help if you form a deep understanding both of their perspective and of your motivations. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“You possess actual creativity, actual devotion and a strong tendency to be ethical. If you don’t let fear contaminate your mind, you will be able to connect these things in the form of your true vocation. If you are involved in what you consider to be your true vocation, you will have opportunities to go deeper and to bring in something that has the power to change you and change the world around you. That’s the mark of truth: it’s alive, it’s active, it’s provocative, and it compels you to establish an ongoing relationship with it.”

Gemini

Gemini (May 20-June 21) — Social justice is often talked of as a high ideal that can never quite be attained, with the underlying point usually being, “So why bother?” You know, really, that this is utter nonsense; and this week could see you getting the chance to make a real difference for someone who is more vulnerable than you. Be ready to help out with a community effort if invited; if not, pick a cause you care about, consider what you might do, and have at it. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“The two most significant aspects of life — love, and work — are coming in at full strength at the moment. You’re in a moment unlike any other you’ve lived through, at least speaking from the viewpoint of your astrology. It’s all so much that you might not be so thrilled; you may not see the opportunities in the wild mash-up of factors that are influencing your life. To begin with, I am here to remind you that you’re larger than it all.”

Cancer

Cancer (June 21-July 22) — This is likely to be an unusually fertile moment, allowing you to plant seeds for anything you want to do creatively. You’ll need, however, to let go of any temptation to hold yourself back, or to respond to what’s offered you with unreasonable suspicion. Be on your guard particularly for a tendency to overthink. Trust your intuition and inner feminine, and listen to the women around you. (That’s probably a good idea most days, come to think of it.) — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“You are the kind of person who must become your intentions and give everything all you’ve got. You feel better when you do this, even if you’re having to stretch a little. Being half-hearted does not suit you. You are a whole-hearted person, you want to feel that fully, and you want to be appreciated for what you do. This is the essence of self-esteem and it’s currently one of the most basic elements of your astrology.”

Leo

Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) — Many of us are awash right now in a sense of compressed time. One thing that’s doing is leading people to feel rushed, and to think they must be engaged in some activity every moment (making it all the easier to fall down the rabbit hole of the internet). Try to buck that trend this week. Rest periods do wonders to refresh and stimulate the brain; so make sure you get plenty, especially if you’ve been feeling somewhat overcooked lately. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“The more you take a proactive and creative role, the less it will feel like changes are happening to you and the more it will feel like you are working with the incoming forces to create the change that you want. Therefore, pay close attention to just what that is: know what you want to change. I suggest you work with two lists: what you want to resolve or eliminate, and what you want to create. Both will happen as part of the same process.”

Virgo

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) — Deal firmly with any inclination you might have this week toward impatience, whether with the universe or (probably more likely) with yourself. If you’re experiencing worry or frustration, it’s almost certainly a matter either time or perspective will solve. Be on the watch for self-criticism in particular. Find a way to communicate your doubts to people who care about you; make a note of their feedback, and make a talisman of their kindness. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“You could say that apart from all the psychological concepts attached to self-esteem, the experience you’re looking for is feeling good about who you are. This is a feeling, not a concept. Rather than strive for the feeling, the thing to do is give yourself the experiences that you want; the experiences that will enrich you and help you develop into your personhood. To feel good about yourself, it’s vital that you know how to express who you are, and what you feel.”

Libra

Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) — It’s not easy to persevere and remain optimistic when one is tired, a bit grumpy or in a skeptical mood. You’re good at getting things going; yet at present it seems you’d understandably rather put your feet up at home, in the warmth of a familiar space. By all means have a rest whenever you need one. But keep your ambitions fed, and get back on track the minute you feel able. In all probability things are about to get a lot clearer. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“Your workplace must be not just habitable but truly supportive. You simply must like the place where you work, or you risk your mental and emotional health. Others can get by with jobs they hate, or substandard working environments; you cannot. Therefore, invest the time and energy that you need to have a place of work that supports your creativity, your health and your wellbeing.”

Scorpio

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) — Now that Saturn is in Capricorn, how you feel about yourself may be shifting toward the ‘lighter and freer’ side of things, which likely comes as a relief. You’ll likely notice a concrete way in which you can be more sincerely yourself. Don’t forget to cultivate and express a sense of gratitude. Also, take care how you display pride, especially in the words you use. Be mindful of what other people are going through, and keep compassion at the forefront of all you say and do. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“You must gather with people who share common values with you. You can no longer afford to invest your precious time and psychic energy with people who do not embody the highest vibration of what you desire, and know to be true. You will feel better about yourself when you can speak openly about what you value the most, and spend time with those who share your spiritual goals and your purpose for living.”

Sagittarius

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) — We’re programmed as a default to seek instant gratification, instant fame, instant enlightenment. The hunt for an easy cure-all has only gotten worse with information overwhelm being a click away. You have the honesty to know that, actually, the long way round is often the best and the truest. Keep that in mind, as you may be feeling impulsive this week. Remember that life is supposed to be a marathon and not a sprint, and take it easy. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“To succeed, your work plan must have metes and bounds. You must choose the specific things you need to accomplish within a specific timeframe, and these choices must be prioritized. This does not mean that you will follow your plans exactly, and you’ll very likely alter your priorities as you proceed. Yet it’s essential to start with some organized scheme, so that you have an overview, and you have a first draft to revise.”

Capricorn Audio Birthday Reading is Ready!

Dear Friend and Reader:

Friday, I recorded your Capricorn birthday reading. It’s about 70 minutes in length, in two sessions. This is your birthday audio — an entirely different reading from The Art of Becoming, which will be ready in January.

You are living in extraordinary times, as a Capricorn or Cap rising. There’s been nothing quite like this in your sign since the early 1990s, when the Uranus-Neptune connection passed through town. That was a while ago — and what you’re now working with is just as significant.

Planet Waves

At the moment, the Sun, Venus, Saturn and Pluto are in your sign, which is building to a series of major events that peak in 2020. That may seem like a long way off, though time marches on. The presence of Saturn, the ruling planet of Capricorn, is a reminder to tend to your growth, shore up your foundations, and take your place in the world.

Saturn in your sign is helping to ground you in your real priorities.

In this reading, I focus on several key points of development, though none is as important as your relationship to your family, and your family history. For all you want to do in life, all the ways you want to succeed, and solidify your process of self-actualization: the family connection is essential.

This relates directly to your most intimate partnerships, because they’re based on an emotional foundation that was laid in childhood. I provide specific information about how to work with these elements, and how to engage in productive self-therapy (it’s not always so useful, but it can be).

Your reading includes access to last year’s recording, plus your 2017 written reading (from The Book of Your Life), and a tarot reading that will arrive in about a month (maybe more, maybe less).

You can get instant access when you order the reading here for just $44. We will increase the price further when the Tarot section is published.

This reading is also included with the Backstage Pass. If you’re not a BSP member, you can upgrade and extend your current subscription, and the Capricorn reading will be included.

Thank you for being a Planet Waves customer.

With love,

eric


 

Capricorn

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) — With your ruling planet Saturn now firmly in your sign, hopefully you’re beginning to feel considerably more like yourself. This week looks to present a fair few opportunities to rock this new you out on the town and dazzle (or at least entertain) your friends. Just remember that this is territory you’re still exploring, and don’t rush into anything if you feel too uncomfortable. Don’t allow anyone to pressure you, either. This is, after all, your journey. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“You are someone who is more connected to the wider flow of the human experience than you might otherwise be. Even if you’re not an official leader, or into politics, you are connected (often rather consciously) to aspects of life that extend far beyond yourself. This connection sometimes comes bursting into your life when you’re not vaguely interested. Sometimes you feel it as a direct calling, and you may or may not know what to do with that.”

Aquarius

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Oh, the trickster that is the human brain. You think you’ve gotten round a problem by keeping it quiet, or avoiding people, or stuffing your emotions down into some deep recess. Then, just as you’re celebrating your cleverness, out it pops. I know you don’t want to hear this, but really you know it already: denial doesn’t work. What you may not realize is that there’s no actual shame in opening up or seeking help. Please consider doing so if you need to. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“Within the morphogenetic fields of your sign is an inbred rebelliousness of mind. This comes with the refusal to accept patterns imposed by others; the capacity to hybridize one’s views and have original positions on social and political issues; which in turn leads to a kind of eccentricity that is very much a quality of your nature. So too is a distinct inventiveness, if you can keep your mind awake, alert and young.”

Pisces

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — You probably already have everything set out to make the necessary strides forward this week. That said: don’t forget to relax when necessary. You may need to be smart, and perhaps quite precise, with your time management; more importantly, be sure to afford appropriate value not just to the work that you’re doing, but to yourself. Remember that your mind is unique, and so are its contributions to the world. Give it enough space to dance. — by Amy Elliott. For your Eric Francis horoscope this week, please see this link.

“After many adventures, misadventures, developments, challenges and crises, you’ve integrated the many seemingly separate facets of who you were into someone who you now most distinctly are. I suggest you make a study of this gradual transformation that’s taken over your life, and which is nearly complete. Feel the ways in which you’ve worked out problems that seemed to have no solution. Notice how your confidence level has increased.”
