YOUR ASTRO COCKTAIL- WEEK OF JULY 20, 2010

What a week! Some planetary players,namely the Sun and Saturn are changing signs this week and as with any move there is always that period of temporary discombobulation. The Sun feels right at home is the sign of Leo and Saturn has finally taken it's strangle hold off of Virgo and will be taking out a two and a half year lease in the sign of Libra. Saturn hanging out in the sign of Libra puts a real emphasis on relationships, balancing out debts, responsibility and basically keepin'-it-real in the area of your life where the sign of Libra rules. If you want to know where Saturn will be in your personal chart for the next few years you can do a free chart on a web based astrology site, contact your personal astrologer or pretend that what you don't know won't crimp your style. Let's just say that you will be able to tell where Saturn is transiting your chart by where you seem to be taking on more responsibility in your life and by where the call for structure is mandatory. Don't be afraid of Saturn but rather see it as a planet that gives us a firm base within a tight container-kinda like what "Spanks" do for our bottoms so we don't get too jiggy with it.

As Above, So Below"~Hermes

For a top shelf blend of some cosmic advice also read your rising sign if you know what it is. Remember that the stars and planets are there to be our designated emotional drivers when we need to find our way through life.



Saturn opposite your Sun may make you feel some frustrations as your natural Mars energy seems to be bottled up. Keep your cool and rethink your words and actions before stirring up any commotion. You have every right to have some trust issues concerning a sneaky,hidden,manipulative person who tried to fool you by playing the "victim." Your splash of tarot for the week is the Eight of Pentacles showing you that you learn quickly and you have a good idea of what others are doing behind the scenes.


Looks like your ship has finally come in. You have waited a long time for this moment and you are about to get the recognition that you deserve. Someone who has been constantly thinking about you is ready to bite the bullet and make a move. Look out for ulterior motives or you may have to hope that the bullet is a silver one ( they are the ones that work best on werewolves and other wolves too.) Your splash of tarot for the week is the
Six of Swords (reversed) indicating a stalemate or an unwanted proposal. No immediate solution to a present difficulty.


Confusion can be contagious so be careful of who you are around this week. The last thing that you need are any more spider webs in your life. Any move that you make,either emotional or physical, will bring about the necessary changes to get you "unstuck" once and for all. Don't let your Gemini good twin / bad twin nature keep you from moving forward. Your splash of tarot for the week is the High Priestess (reversed) warning you not to accept superficial knowledge from a selfish,shallow person.


You may be surprised to hear some news about someone who has been on your mind. See how they figure into some up coming changes that you will be making especially around the home front. Will they be a new neighbor,lover, real estate agent ? Funny how certain people present themselves into your life when they are most needed. Look for the obvious in the obscure. Your splash of tarot for the week is the Fool (reversed)
showing that failure to move forward may be your downfall. Don't ignore an opportunity that presents itself.


The Sun moving into your sign this week makes you the designated Birthday Babe. While you are enjoying your time to shine don't ignore that fact that Saturn edging into your third house of communication, contracts and siblings may be urging you to structure these areas so things don't fall apart at a later date. Any more weight put on your shoulders may make you look like an 80's babe with shoulder pad extravaganza going on. Get things in writing now to avoid problems down the line. Your splash of tarot for the week is the King of Pentacles indicating that an experienced man will help you make the right financial decisions. Your best investments overall are the ones you make in loyal friendships.


Are you ready to make an investment in something? Check all offerings carefully so you won't be lamenting over money that you put into a losing project. Picking up the tab for someone's "Big Day" doesn't come with any guarantee of forever and ever. Make sure that wedding bells are not more likely to be for "Whom the Bell Tolls." Your splash of tarot for the week is the Sun card showing that your true happiness is achieved when there is sincerity involved.


The planet Saturn is settling into you sign for the next two and a half years so get use to the new structure that it also brings with its stay in Libra. Responsibility doesn't have to be a drag especially if you realize that most limits are usually self imposed. Work with the energy of this planet to bring discipline into the areas of your life where it is most needed. Diet,exercise,spending are just a few of the areas where Saturn may help you gain control instead of gaining pounds and bills. Your splash of tarot for the week is the Knight of Swords (reversed) indicating that there may be a dispute because of a woman. Don't make any impulsive mistakes.


Delving into your inner self actually gives you a sense of feeling grounded and structured this week. Don't get too lost in your dreams because the Sun going into Leo later this week will square off with your Scorpio Sun Sign and there may be a clash of ego with some a******. Be a true Scorpio and don't get mad get even then you can work on really busting chops by getting ahead. Your splash of tarot for the week is the Three of Cups showing that the resolution to a problem may be compromise. Solace and healing.


Gotta love your sense of humor. Even when the chips are down you still find a reason to freakin' laugh and smile. A friend may have recently let you down but you will see in the long run that they really did you a big favor. Sometimes the best answers to our prayers are the ones that don't get answered. Your splash of tarot for the week is the Ten of Cups (reversed) indicating your disappointment over the loss of a friendship. A difference of opinion causes a quarrel.


Doing your job and someone else's can be a real drag. You don't need any extra weight to carry around unless of course it is a nice size diamond for your ring finger or a parcel of loot for your wallet. Be flexible and open to a new set of plans that should arrive by the week's end. Your life can go from flat to fantastic within a moment's notice -and I ain't talkin' about implants. Your splash of tarot for the week is the Three of Wands (reversed) alerting you to someone with ulterior motives. Careful with business advice given to you-it may be wrong.


You are due for a real spiritual experience and "Yes"-you can count mind blowing sex if you should be lucky enough to have any. Your intuition has been right on and you suddenly feel as though you are using all SIX senses. Your insightfulness pays off when it comes to making an important decision later in the week. Maybe you should try your luck at the lotto or casino too. Your splash of tarot for the week is the Tower card indicating a complete change. The undoing of one situation frees you from an unstable situation.


You will find that you get more work done if you stay off of the phone and away from the computer. Don't neglect the work that has been piling up or else it will rival Mt. Everest in height. Saturn heading straight into your house of both money that is owed and debt gives you the backbone you need to tell others to freakin' pay you what you are owed so you can pay down your debt. Your splash of tarot for the week is the Seven of Cups (reversed) showing that desire,determination and a strong willpower help you make the right choices. A financial problem is resolved.
