The Universe Mysteriously Conspires Asking You to Step into Your Power

RIYA

During our last our decan of Pisces, there will be a considerable emphasis on cleansing, with Mars and Pluto powering the evolution. Most think of cleansing as an experience that is, well, clean. But the most effective purging often requires one to get dirty: this can mean looking at behaviors, thoughts, and feelings that are not constructive, and going through the messy process of restructuring or completely eradicating them. It behooves us to plan our work, work our plans, and do not veer from the objective. We mustn't let others do the job for us, or ask others for answers to the test. If we are unafraid and surrender to the process, instantaneous healing can occur.

The Universe is calling for us to stop being hypercritical of ourselves and others and not open to more possibilities.

The Universe is calling for us to stop being hypercritical of ourselves and others and not open to more possibilities. Celestial entities are aligning to introduce opportunities for intellectual growth and not being afraid of not knowing as much as we think everyone else does. In this quest for communication, some of us will want to reach out to others and say, "Do you hear me?" It is time for us to share knowledge, and take our time communicating the details. This approach is important, as a lack of information will inadvertently cause other individuals to pretend to know more than they think they do. They may even say things like, "I told you the first time." Hence, Neptunian confusion commences.

Still, the Universe is mysteriously conspiring to have us step into our power. Therefore, we must take responsibility for our choices and lives. There is a call to be careful about our boundaries, lest we hurt our selves in the process of ignoring them. To add stability to our lives, we may want to focus on having a strict day-to-day schedule. And if you have a tight schedule already, you may have to loosen it up! A challenge may occur in a loved one's life from afar, which prompts them to contact us to tell us they love us. We need to have enough time to not only hear the message but listen.

While we are on the topic of emotions, there is no shame in stating what we like.  Guilt and neurosis about not being accepted, the subconscious fear of not being loved, is unacceptable now. We should work on building a deeper connection with our feelings. Some of us may feel alienated because of our emotions, or by our senses themselves. Herein we can reach into the muck that we are working to cleanse and see what we can find. It will get messy -- all is fair in love and war. We need to pick our battles wisely: holding on to something dead out of duty or just to make a point is counterproductive.

The wheel turns once more soon enough -- what have you learned this zodiacal year? Have you developed more patience with yourself? Maybe picked up a new hobby? It is a great time to absorb our lessons and allow them to inform the intuition that has developed over time.
