Astrology for 11/20/2014

11/20/2014 Thursday by Norma

Four planets in Scorpio are here to bail you out of any muddle you’re in! Scorpio is the fixer of the zodiac: after careful inspection, he either demolishes or resurrects projects based on what he sees, and so should you. Detective-like intelligence has never been more accurate. Assess the situation and believe what you see. The I Ching says, “Perseverance alone does not assure success. No amount of stalking will lead to game in a field that has none.” Abandon wishful thinking! Everything gets easier once you operate in sync with reality. Underground forces are dramatically stronger than public forces. What’s good? Surgery, hard work, steady application of energy, and a crazy, goofy humor that brightens everything!

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 family or children, some in work, and so forth. There are many departments of life. Look to see where the dynamic affects you!

The times are intrinsically serious, yes, but someone walks by with a happy comment and a cheerful smile, which helps tremendously. Do your best to be that person. Saturn, Lord of Karma, is travelling with the Sun, bringing things down to earth and making them seem harder. Wisdom prevails, if you are willing to use it. Be as realistic as possible in your decisions. The urge to escape, to flee, is strong but don’t do it. The image of a person digging a well who gets tired just before hitting water is applicable. Lou Holtz said, “If you don’t make a total commitment to whatever you’re doing, then you start looking to bail out the first time the boat starts leaking.” Don’t bail! What’s good about today? Jokes (gallows humor), zipping around doing errands, philosophy, and smart thinking.

Astrology for 11/18/2014

Still tired? Go as slowly as possible and energy will return in time. Avoid pursuing people you don’t understand, they are hiding on purpose! Wait until the person contacts you. The more you try to coalition-build, the worse it goes, so don’t bother. Of course, you want the relationship and that’s the problem. The other side won’t play. Samuel Smiles said, “We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do.” Use your head today. Penetrating intelligence, the sort that sees reality rather than what it wants to see, is your best friend. When your assessment is realistic, you’ll know what to do. Put a smile on your face and do it! What’s good? Crazy happiness, the ability to look at the big picture, and a solid grasp of life as it is.

Astrology for 11/17/2014

11/17/2014 Monday by Norma

Last minute work is consuming, and men are feeling tired and overburdened. Do your best to lighten the load of someone who is working hard, especially the one who says “I can handle it!” Encourage that person to relax and take it easy. A pressured time turns social as the day progresses, and a cheerful partner steps in to pick up the slack, changing the tone of the day. Mother Teresa said, “We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love.” An insecure individual is too strict about things, try to be supportive. Compliment everyone today! What’s good? A project is succeeding, supportive people make it all worth the trouble, and an off the wall nutty humor brightens everything.

Take your vitamins! Do your exercises! Eat bulk-producing cereal and feel virtuous! It’s a perfect day to relax and tend to details. Write or email thank you notes, do the laundry. As the day progresses, happiness appears in the form of travel, spiritual inspiration and long distance communication. Go somewhere, you’ll love it! John Barrymore said, “happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn’t know you’d left open.”

Take it slow this morning, let yourself sleep in and rest. Once you get moving, today is extremely satisfying. Things fall into place. Everyone is helpful, courteous and precise. If you’ve felt ill or tired, you’ll recover. People rush around looking for ways to help: give anyone a task and it’ll be performed to perfection! Woodrow Wilson said, “Character is a byproduct; it is produced in the great manufacture of daily duty.” Tremendous change is occurring now. Let it happen, help it happen.

Astrology for 11/14/2014

11/14/2014 Friday by Norma

Life is so much fun and people are having a wonderful time: the urge to abandon your work and enjoy yourself is very powerful. “Relax, come out and play,” forces seem to beckon. Stay put, keep plugging away. Pull the party into your realm, get people working along side you. The job is nearly done, carry on! Hurt pride is an issue today. Set your ego aside in the interest of productivity. Thomas Huxley said, “The most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not.” What you accomplish now will stand for a long time to come.

Astrology for 11/13/2014

11/13/2014 Thursday by Norma

A bit of good fortune happens today, and an inspiring person lifts spirits. Excitement is here, but don’t let yourself be distracted from the work of the day: restoration, renovation and rebuilding of things. Do each task as it comes. Marcus Aurelius said, “Neither past nor future can weigh thee down, only the present.” It’s a happy time, with multiple distractions and surprises. Stay on task and everything goes well. Allow yourself to be diverted and it all goes awry. Your choice.

Eternal Fountain of Blessings

The following is an excerpt from a teaching by Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo called “Take Control of Your Life”

We have an amazing thing here.  We have an opportunity to participate in something that you don’t have almost anywhere else—I don’t know of anywhere else—and that’s the 24-hour a day prayer vigil.  I don’t know of another place, and there may be one, but I don’t know of another place where prayer for sentient beings goes on 24hours a day.  This place is like a giant merit machine.  To participate in that and the satisfaction of knowing that you have participated somehow in alleviating the suffering of the world is a thing that we should contemplate with joy.  And we’re beginning to win over other people.  Apparently, there are some non-Buddhist preachers locally that want to know how we did it.  How did we motivate our people to practice 24-hour a day prayer for all beings?

Well, we taught what the Buddha taught: that all beings are equal in their nature, that they are all suffering horribly, that they all wish to be happy, that enlightenment is the [end] to suffering, and here is the method.  So we have the means by which to understand how to change the worldnot only how to change our personal world, but the world at large. Can you imagine if we had even a dozen major cities around the world with this same effort?

Can you imagine?  Stupas and 24-hour a day prayer.  This is my dream, my hope.  That the field of joyful practice, virtuous activity and enlightenment will swallow up the world and bring us all blissful contentment. That’s what I want to do.  I want to make stupas everywhere.  I want to make prayer vigils everywhere.  I know you want to help.  I know you want to join me.  It’s the only game in town.  There’s nothing else that you can do that will bring so much joy.  Nothing you can eat, drink, have, do, that will bring you that much happiness.

Here’s where we start, right here, to change our lives into vehicles that bring happiness to other beings, to practice every day to attain a virtuous peaceful calm mind and to offer that as food and drink to those who are so locked in their own phenomena and confusion that they don’t know that they are.  To offer our practice as an eternal fountain of benefit, as eternal as this world anyway, for all the beings of this earth and for all the three thousand myriads of universes, because we should be impartial like the sun.  We should pray for all beings equally.

Astrology for 11/12/2014

A last ditch emotional appeal comes, and people are definitely working too hard. Be patient with emotional displays, yours’ and others’, things will settle down as the day progresses. Four planets in Scorpio reflect the intensity of the times: real accomplishments are occurring, but everything’s a secret! Underground matters are excellent; renovation and reconstruction progress well, if slowly. What’s being built will last a very long time, so be patient. A sense of melancholy is present involving a sense of loss of love. This sad feeling lasts several day and passes, so let yourself grieve. Gautama Siddharta said, “There isn’t enough darkness in the world to snuff out the light of one little candle.” Avoid the tendency to promise too much, to overdo, in order to make a point; it won’t work. The one you’re trying to impress knows the score. Stand on your accomplishments, not your promises. What’s good today? Water, imagination, stable love, support that won’t quit, and steady accomplishment.
