Funny You Should Ask

"Wear my den chairs!" The caller sounded frantic. 

"Could you repeat that?" I asked. Her voice was mumbled and I could barely make out her words but she was obviously in great distress. My cards indicated something about bedrooms but that made no sense. Finally I figured out the question - it helps to be psychic! - the dear soul wasn't promoting wearing furniture, she was trying to find her lost teeth: "Where are my dentures?" After we got her put back together (the missing teeth had fallen behind the night stand) and enjoyed a good laugh, I got to thinking it might be fun to write out some of the other crazy questions folks have come up with over the years.

One that I think even spooked my spirit guides was the fellow who called wanting to know the winner for that afternoon's dog race. I think I've mentioned before how often my information comes through to me as songs playing in the back of my mind. As soon as the man stated the question I started hearing Danny Boy. "Read me the list of dogs that are running and I'll tell you what I pick up on, " I suggested. He did and sure enough, while there was no dog named Danny in the race that day, entrant number 8 was Wistful Tune. I figured that fit the message so I gave him my answer but I cautioned him that I personally was not a gambler and that I couldn't guarantee my angels knew anything about dog races either. We then said goodbye and I didn't give it anymore thought. Well, guess what? The next day he calls me back and not only had the dog won, but now he has his entire family in the living room waiting for me to just say the word - they were all going to bet their life's savings on the next race based on my advice! Youch! I don't know if it truly was a message from my guides or my own fears talking but I immediately started hearing the song, "Hit The Road, Jack!" and told him I had to get off the phone. I think it was the responsible thing to say but of course now I'm forever wondering what if there was a dog named Jack running that day...?

Sometimes people want to know even before their baby is big enough for an ultra sound if the child is going to be a boy or a girl. I tell them what I see in the cards but I also suggest trying the String and Ring test. This is where you thread your wedding ring on a string and have the baby's father hold it like a pendulum over your tummy. If it moves back and forth in a straight line it's a boy, if it goes in a circle it's a girl. One caller was concerned though because she didn't know who the father was and could I please look at the cards and describe him? As she had introduced herself as being married I wondered silently if she was hinting there had been an unauthorized one night stand... Well, the cards can usually describe a person quite accurately so I laid them out hoping what I saw would point to the husband. This time however I didn't know what to say. The cards were describing a very intelligent, handsome, healthy... stranger! Someone far away whom she'd never even met! As I stuttered and stalled she filled in the blanks. It seems she and her husband had been trying unsuccessfully for years to become pregnant and they had finally decided to go for artificial insemination. She was delighted to hear the it appeared the baby would have very healthy genes. I was pleased to know that once again my cards are always right - even if I didn't always interpret them right! Whew!

Well enough silly stories, back to work:

This week leading up to the full moon the sun is in Cancer the sign of home and family and friends who are like family. The recent eclipses have brought secrets out in the open and Saturn is insisting life be looked at with out any roses colored glasses but Jupiter in harmonious Taurus promises if we do all can be forgiven.

Thanks for asking,

While The Cat's Away The Mice Go Crazy.

If you've been reading my blog you know I'm not one for making negative predictions. I believe in the maxims "Where attention goes, energy flows" and, "Thoughts become things so pick the good ones." However the upcoming new moon eclipse in Cancer July 1st is so fraught with potential difficulties I've decided to break my own rule. This week we need to stop with the making happy talk and focus on what's real. There's not a moment to lose!

This upcoming new moon will take place in the sign Cancer which rules families and particularly mothers and babies. Ordinarily we can count on this time of year to offer opportunities for strengthening family ties. School is out and the long lazy days of summer lie ahead - or do they? That may not be the case this time. The eclipse taking place Friday symbolizes the steadying hand of the parent being absent or inconsequential and the emotions, symbolized by the moon, running wild. Personally I'm now trying to make my mantra "Keep calm" -  but I keep thinking of the ditty, "When in trouble or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout!" 

In layman's terms the sun being eclipsed by the moon in Cancer means whomever we have looked to as the outside authority in our lives, the parent, the one we could always turn to for guidance and approval or the one we could always blame, is being eclipsed and may no longer be willing or able to play that authority role. This could manifest literally with a parent saying, "Your a grown up now, don't expect me to keep bailing you out!" Or an adult child saying, "Stop trying to manage my life!" Or - as is the case with so many of the Baby Boomers - with our parents having health issues making it so not only are they unable to be there for us as parents, but we are now having to take on the role of looking after them. These unasked for changes may trigger some fear and insecurity on both sides so the pouting and shouting potential this month is at an all time high.

 With our parents "eclipsed" and thus we no longer having an outside authority to cry to, the first challenge we're likely to be faced with is what to do with all the ungrounded emotions coming to the surface. Problems we should have taken responsibility for in the past come back to haunt us and feelings we used to repress now refuse to be silenced. It's easy to imagine some pretty bitter arguments manifesting at this time and with Uranus continuing to square Pluto they could grow into a family feud of epic proportions. If you wish to avoid quarrels no one can win, the moment misunderstandings appear don't fan the fires! Set about restoring trust!

 Now the good news. Jupiter, the planet of wisdom is trining Pluto, the planet of transformation. Once we have mastered the Cancerian impulse to indulge in drama, the way forward should emerge pretty quickly. In other words, when we stop the childish way of placing blame and accept the wise parent role of simply doing what needs to be done we should find our way out of difficulties with a minimum of pain and hardship.

 But if it ain't all that easy please know you can write to me here or give me a call! 

It's good to have friends!

The Planets This Week

Thank heavens the planets move! Mars finally got out of it's stuck zone in Taurus and is buzzing alive in Gemini. Have you noticed the shift? Connections are finally coming together and it looks like progress is being made. Still a few slip ups to look out for - Mars in Gemini can perform like the knight in Alice in Wonderland who wanted to jump on his horse and speed off in all directions at once. To make the most of this burst of energy, break projects into small steps and don't burn out trying to plan things too far into the future.. You will probably find that you are being confronted with new choices (Gemini) and need to make fresh decisions (Mars) each step of the way this week.

 

I like to look at the planets in order of their degree. That is, rather than looking at the sun, then the moon, then Mercury etc., I look at which planet is at the earliest degree of the sign it is in. This tellsmes what sort of energy we will be connecting with first in the day. Mars is now at 0 degrees Gemini, so I bet a lot of us are finding ourselves starting our day doing Gemini things such as planning and making lists. Neptune is at 0 degrees Pisces so next we look at Neptune, the planet ruling patience and surrender which has entered Pisces but turned retrograde meaning it appears to be moving backwards. (It's not really, it just looks that way from the earth.) Neptune retrograde in Pisces signifies a time when change is happening so quickly we find ourselves needing to rely on our ability to just surrender to the moment and go with the flow. Mystical Neptune paired now with mental Gemini Mars makes for a tricky combination. We quickly find all our plans and lists need revision. To avoid angry outbursts I think this quote from Marilyn Monroe gives the best advice for when if feels like there is just too much going on: "Did you ever notice How 'What the hell?' is always the right answer?"!

 

Jupiter began its year long sojourn in Taurus this month. Those of you born in the first degrees of Taurus (April 22 -26) should be experiencing a time of expanding your sense of what's possible and finding yourselves able to draw good fortune to you. The rest of us can benefit from this planet of wisdom in the earthly sign too, we just have to do it a bit more consciously. Jupiter in Taurus says think about what you are wanting, inwardly scan who or what you know could help you, and then follow the lead that comes to you.

 

Uranus encourages teamwork but in Aries this week it cautions team members need their individual responsibilities. Give yourself and everyone else space to do their thing. Love relationships particularly can experience stress if one partner is insisting that if you really love them you'll do things their way.

 

Which brings us to Pluto in Capricorn. Uranus in Aries is making a harsh connection to Pluto and this push-coming-to-shove line up is going to be with us for several months yet. We're seeing it play out particularly in the world of international finance with various countries on the brink of bankruptcy. Because Pluto brings power plays and restructuring I am expecting that at the very last minute we'll be seeing currency being re valuated to save the world from ruin. For us individuals I suspect we are going to need to keep an eye on congress to protect the Social Security program. In our daily lives the advice is to as much as possible avoid power struggles. You my find yourself feeling really resentful of anyone who tries to control you. Consider the lesson here maybe it's time to learn self control.

 

Happily, Saturn has turned direct in Libra. The shenanigans created by the Uranus-Pluto stand off will be dealt with by the ruler of cosmic justice and fair play. This means if for a moment there you were thinking you might be able to pull a fast one, please be warned pay back's a bummer. Play it straight these days and if something of yours is taken you could find it's soon replaced - perhaps with something even better.

 

Mercury in Cancer means family matters are on the forefront this week. Indeed you may find yourself more psychically intune with your relatives at this time so act on any intuitions to call or send a friendly email.

 

The planet of last degree for the next six days will be Venus in Gemini. This is a very positive omen for there always being a way for things to end on  a fair and friendly note.

 

In brief:

Mars in Gemini - Lots to think about. Make lists.

Neptune in Pisces - But things are in a state of flux, so be willing to adapt.

Jupiter in Taurus - Many options if you look.

Uranus in Aries/ Pluto in Capricorn - Don't take it all on at once or try to fight city hall.

Saturn in Libra - A solution could come that's better than any you try to force.

Mercury in Cancer - It's all about family.

Venus in Gemini - So end each day with a kind word.

 

Talk to you super soon,

Rosada.
