“Success is not a function of the size of your title but the richness of your contribution.” Robin S. Sharma

COSMIC WATCH:

Sun squaring “serious” Saturn (8:56 am EST) is generally a one or two day period when we’re encouraged to take stock of our situation to see how we’re faring with respect to our long-term goals, making adjustments where we see fit. Of course, it’s often the nature of “teacher” Saturn to also toss in a few “challenges” along our path so that we can stretch our capabilities a bit – sort of akin to having us do a little barbell lifting, I suppose – something deemed to be good for us in the long run, but, in the short term, it may appear otherwise.

A big thing here, however, in all of this, is not to become overly critical or judgmental of our self, our performance, and maybe what we’ve failed or neglected to do, or to become preoccupied with our fears, but rather to see what steps we can take going forward to be more on track with what we truly want to manifest for our self. Also, it’s a good time to evaluate whether what we’re wanting to achieve is really a derivative of our own stuff, our own dreams – or are we simply carrying out, perhaps unconsciously, the directives of what other people want for us, like our parents, partners, etc. The shadow side of the Sun-Saturn can be feelings of guilt, regret, withdrawal. Feeling that we’re not good enough.

The Moon is also in “practical, determined” Taurus, all day, hopefully, providing us with the wherewithal to plow through any bumpy patches. The Moon’s trine to Pluto (9:01 pm EST) also potentially helps us put everything in perspective, in a transformative way. Moon-Pluto can also motivate us to probe deeper into our emotional nature. “Not enough people in this world, I think, carry a cosmic perspective with them. It could be life-changing.” Neil deGrasse Tyson
