Astrology TuesdayAstrology Tuesday

Early in the day you dither around, unsure of what to do. As the day picks up speed, you move into a sensitive and reflective mood. You are still working hard, and humility is the order of the day. Bounce your ideas off others, and take criticism and suggestions seriously. Make no attempt to conceal your mistakes, and you have made some, but fess up and move on. No shifting blame. Thomas Merton said “Pride makes us artificial and humility makes us real.” Keep swallowing your pride, and you will have an opportunity to shift the issues of your world onto a more stable foundation.

The daily astrology post affects everyone. Because individual charts vary, the circumstances outlined in the post will affect people differently. Some will feel this energy in the personal arena, some in finances, some with children or family, some in work and so forth. There are many departments of life. Look to see where the dynamic affects you!
