Horoscopes: 02.24.14


Aries: March 21 - April 20
Life can be broken down into simple truths, and our happiness is often linked to one of those. Hold on to and believe in the truth you have loved.

Taurus: April 21 - May 21
Don't judge others by the bad experiences you have had. Learn to see new people and the world around you with a fresh set of eyes.

Gemini: May 22 - June 21
Life has thrown too much at you too soon. Filter away the inessentials, but beware of losing something valuable that you may not be able to reclaim later.

Cancer: June 22 - July 22
Judgment is at hand, Cancer. Stay home... and be afraid.

Leo: July 23 - August 22
It's been a long time since you've been truly happy. You've been feeling trapped and very insecure. I've said this to you several times before. We are all responsible for the route our lives take. Make a change, and feel happiness again.

Virgo: August 23 - September 22
Change the bed sheets, honey. They're looking nasty.

Libra: September 23 - October 23
Sometimes personal evolutions can be scarey. However, to become a better you, we often have to surrender away those old familiar patterns that do nothing but keep us in circles.

Scorpio: October 24 - November 22
Often, it is not life that is overwhelming, but rather our fear of it. Changes that come along unexpectedly are sometimes exactly what you need.

Sagittarius: November 23 - December 21
Perception. Perspective. It's all about our own personal point-of-view. Sometimes, however, combining a few other points-of-view along with your own will lead you to a truth that has remained elusive.

Capricorn: December 22 - January 20
You have put an enormous amount of responsibilities and tasks upon yourself. Be gentler with your expectations this week. You're not as young as you used to be.

Aquarius: January 21 - February 19
Ego is often at the core of all our bad decisions. It's hard to put aside the "me", and think of the "him", the "her", the "us" or the "we". It takes effort to change that perspective honestly... but the rewards you earn can be magnificent.

Pisces: February 20 - March 20
If the river proves to harsh to swim in... find a pond.

Horoscopes: 02.17.14


Aries: March 21 - April 20
All is fair in love and war. Not all the moments in our lives are going to be rosey. Compromise is key. We have to learn when to bend, and when to firmly stand our ground.

Taurus: April 21 - May 21
You're sitting at home sulking about how bad life is. No one loves you or respects you... well, have you given them any reason to?

Gemini: May 22 - June 21
Life seems to happen all around you. You have fallen into the convenient and very safe role of a spectator. Opportunity knocks, but it won't open the door for itself.

Cancer: June 22 - July 22
Our hopes and dreams exist to give us something to aspire to. You've cluttered your day with far too much needless junk. It's blocking your vision and your path. Grab some garbage bags.

Leo: July 23 - August 22
Excitement. Opportunity. Love. Tranquility. The things you want in your life as not as difficult to attain as you've believed.

Virgo: August 23 - September 22
You've been seeking a new beginning... one that will empower you with the strengths to bring on positive changes in your life. Maybe it's time you withdraw a little from the limelight and do some soul-searching.

Libra: September 23 - October 23
You've paid a high price for a revelation, dear Libra. You've lost friends and a loved one, but... maybe... just maybe... the lesson you've learned is worth much more.

Scorpio: October 24 - November 22
Sometimes, tiny steps of evolution require us to step outside ourselves and the boundaries we've set out of fear.

Sagittarius: November 23 - December 21
You're drained and worn out. Return to the basics... the simple things that recharge you and give you satisfaction. The seasons are changing... change with them. Find a new purpose and a new direction.

Capricorn: December 22 - January 20
We all make mistakes. It's a natural part of being human, but it's what we do after acknowledging it that defines our humanity.

Aquarius: January 21 - February 19
The great water-bearer is humbled. You've hit a brick wall and have no idea what to do now. You've always followed your instincts and inner feelings to lead you in the right direction. Why should now be any different?

Pisces: February 20 - March 20
The river of life has pulled you in many directions, and you have always managed to swim up river. You have a powerful sense of direction and purpose when you call on it.

Venus & Eros

Venus was a Roman goddess principally associated with love, beauty and fertility, who played a key role in many Roman religious festivals and myths. Venus was commonly associated with the Greek goddess Aphrodite and the Etruscan deity Turan, borrowing aspects from each.

Eros was the son of Aphrodite and Ares, the Greek god of war. To the Ancient Greeks, Eros was the primordial god of sexual love and beauty, and was worshiped as a fertility deity. His Roman counterpart was Cupid ("desire"), who was also known as Amor ("love").


Venus & Eros are part of my "Simply Divine" series, and are available over at my CafePress Shop. Cupid is available in the "Holidays & Occasions" section just waiting to shoot his enchanted arrows at unsuspecting lovers.

Horoscopes: 02.10.14


Aries: March 21 - April 20
Your life is a drama.
Your career is a Broadway hit.
Your love life is an HBO special, and your sex life is a marathon.
You deserve an award for excellence.

Taurus: April 21 - May 21
So much has changed in your life recently. Responsibility has knocked on your door, and let itself in. You are more than capable of meeting all those hefty challenges ahead, but only if you believe you are.

Gemini: May 22 - June 21
Sometimes great wisdom can come out of the mouth of an idiot - sit back and listen to that inner voice you've been ignoring.

Cancer: June 22 - July 22
Again - STRESS MANAGEMENT. It's not an easy thing especially when outside sources are responsible for most of your trauma, but... inner peace and balance DOES conquer all. Focus... Focus... Breathe and relax.

Leo: July 23 - August 22
Learn the joy of giving on this day of love. Give red roses. Give dark chocolate. Give simple presents. Give honest hope. Give grateful thanks. Give loving joy. Give heartfelt honesty. Give sincere apologies, and you will receive the world in return.

Virgo: August 23 - September 22
"Love is in the air", but not for you.

Libra: September 23 - October 23
Tramp. Tramp. Tramp. Tramp. Finally... a wild side, to the ever balanced and focused Libra. I stand amazed, and very... VERY proud. You have tipped the scale, and it has tipped in your favor. Be adventurous. This is your curtain call. Don't fuck it up!

Scorpio: October 24 - November 22
It's very easy to overlook the small and tiny joys of life, but those same small pleasures can hold the greatest truths.

Sagittarius: November 23 - December 21
"Hello, young lovers wherever you are..." You want it all... A fab career, a fab love life, a fab social life... Well, fellow Sag's., make a wish and blow out that cosmic candle, cause 2001 is bringing changes that are gonna rock your boat. It's sink or swim, baby!

Capricorn: December 22 - January 20
Sincerity and a little humility can take you further than you think. Sometimes, the road of least resistance actually does provide the sweetest fruit.

Aquarius: January 21 - February 19
Think out your words carefully before you actually speak them. A careless phrase can do far more damage than you realize. You may inadvertently hurt the feelings of a loved one.

Pisces: February 20 - March 20
Well... you've been sitting on your ass doing nothing. What are you waiting for, little fishie? The light has turned green. It means "GO".

Horoscopes: 02.03.14


Aries: March 21 - April 20
Joy and sorrow are all natural parts of life. One cannot exist without the other. One can not be appreciated without the other. Accept the pains of loss, and soon you will feel the joys of renewal.

Taurus: April 21 - May 21
It is time for the hideous self-criticism to come to an end. Your strive for perfection is doomed to fail. Accept your faults alongside your virtues, and you will be a greater person for it.

Gemini: May 22 - June 21
Alcohol and good judgments don't mix, especially with you.

Cancer: June 22 - July 22
Take care not to boast too loudly about your accomplishments, not everyone celebrates your successes.

Leo: July 23 - August 22
You have felt the pull of the changing seasons. Creative energies have recharged you. Follow your animal urges and instincts. Live spontaneously.

Virgo: August 23 - September 22
The maiden of the Zodiac is embodiment of chastity, pure hearted and kind bearer of good fortune. Wake-up, bitch... everyone knows you're full of shit.

Libra: September 23 - October 23
Dishonesty never suited you. Many others have come to rely on your straight-forwardness. It is a beautiful quality to have.

Scorpio: October 24 - November 22
Self-revelations often overshadow the deeper truths of the moment. Step outside your self-doubt and try to see yourself with a different set of eyes.

Sagittarius: November 23 - December 21
This year has taken you on a powerful journey of self-discovery and re-definition, but it seems the destination is not where you expected it to be. Make the most of this powerful transition. Trust your inner spirit... its wisdom has never failed you.

Capricorn: December 22 - January 20
Stop defining yourself by what others have, and you think you lack. Truly examine yourself and find those incredible qualities that make you incredible.

Aquarius: January 21 - February 19
Fortune Cookie Moment: Simple acts of random kindness often bring about unexpected moments of great happiness.

Pisces: February 20 - March 20
The waters are your route to renewal. Take a walk to a nearby pond, lake, or river and jump in! Get wet, and let yourself feel re-energized.

Oya


In Yoruba Mythology, Oya is the Undergoddess of the Niger River. She is a female warrior and the Orisha of fire, fertility, lightning, wind and magic. She creates hurricanes and tornadoes, and guards the passage to the Underworld. She is the spirit of tornadoes (which are said to be her whirling skirts as she dances), of lightning (the power of which she acquired from her husband, Chango), of earthquakes, and of any form of natural destruction. In essence, Oya is the spirit of change, of transition, and of the chaos that often brings it about. Her association with the marketplace, and more specifically with the gates of cemeteries (as opposed to the entire Underworld), emphasizes her aspect as a facilitator of transition. Oya has been syncretized in Santeria with the Virgin of Candelaria.

Oya is part of my "Simply Divine" series, and is available over at my CafePress Shop.
