UNDERWATER
AMSTERDAM
SEPTEMBER 2010
20 March-19 April
You'll earn every nickel and dime you get this month. You'll also earn a lot of respect and admiration. You're no slouch in the hard work and heroics department. Although most Aries are not famous for being tall, you carry a certain swagger that warns, "Watch Out! I'm all fired up! Get out of my way or get walked on." You add more humanity-based activities to your already heavy-duty roster of daily obligations. And you are possessive, passionate, and jealous. This is most obvious, starting on the 8th. If anyone interferes with the people or opportunities that you believe are yours, we're talking instant roadkill. On the 9th, Jupiter retrogrades into Pisces, giving you, Ram, more reasons to seriously ponder what matters most to you. You've seen all sides to a story. Now you need to figure out if your restless heart needs more exploration or if you've found the essence, the sprouting seed of who you are, and why you're here. Either way, it's an exciting time of renewal. The 9th is kind of special for a number of reasons. For starters, you let your energy and emotion off the chain and let it gallop wherever it pleases. What a plunge into Paradise this is! You feel free of worries and woes. On the 12th, Venus forms a creative, ultra passionate sextile with Pluto, helping you articulate (verbally or via body language) how deep your love and emotions are. Mercury officially goes direct on the 12th – but smart Rams will wait until after the 17th, when Mercury is out of its storm (aka s-l-o-w) period. If you can muster up the patience to wait until the 17th to spring new ideas, sign documents, et al, you'll be very fortunate. Depending on your time zone, Pluto goes direct (this is a big deal, FYI) on the 13th or 14th. This suggests that the Cardinals (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) can take their rightful place at the head of the table. Remember Ram: This is your life. Make sure to put your stamp of approval on everything before it leaves the building. The excitement continues on the 14th when your ruling planet Mars scampers into Scorpio, a sign it's very comfy and useful in. Mars in Scorpio also suggests that you're this close to a new deal. So start talking to lawyers and advisors now, even if you don't sign until the 17th or later. Just get yourself perfectly organized. If you hate small print (of course you do!!), ask Virgo to read it for you. Virgo notices shenanigans and misleading comments (commonly hidden in the 'boilerplate' blather and usually ignored). We all need a Virgo in our corner of the ring. They are irreplaceable. The 18th is your kind of "no limits" day – perfect for a big party, or an all night anything. You might feel like a night of the living dead zombie the next day, but it was worth every crazy, uncivilized moment. On the 21st, you bring in additional experts, probably people you trust, who've worked diligently with you in the past. You have a funny feeling about a situation that may be spiraling out of control and want their take on it. Good call, Ram. You'll get as many opinions as you have experts, but will find the common thread that runs through each honest response: something or someone is unreliable and probably not the best influence on you. On the 22nd (Fall Equinox), you're so moved by what you heard from your trusted cabal of experts that you're ready to make significant changes. A Full Moon in your sign on the 23rd cinches it.
