‘Soul in Bondage’ By Elihu Vedder 1891 {{PD}}

We may see something from the past, something misunderstood or disregarded at the time, that needs acceptance and incorporation into our lives. This may come as a surprise to us, and those of us who want to leave the past behind may be dismayed, but this will turn out to be a necessary bit of Soul retrieval, meant to bring us closer to a conscious sense of wholeness. It may come about through a power struggle, or one to set ourselves or someone/ something else ‘free’, or could be an accidental result of expressing our own power, but in any case, comes about as we ‘listen’ to our inner prompts and respond to what we ‘know but don’t know’, bringing back a piece of spirit, one temporarily lost by believing others over our own instincts.

For those born with the Sun at 18 Gemini. Check your natal chart for the correct Sun degree (you may want to read both the degree number and the one that follows, if you have minutes on your Sun position–together these offer a more complete picture of your year ahead). Dear Gemini, This solar year, through to your next birthday, creativity and fertility of all kinds is high, arising out of a need to tell your story. The creative urge may, in fact, overwhelm all other considerations, though ostensibly your attention will likely be on ambitions, looking for opportunities, and trying to have a real-world impact. If you don’t already have them, please develop one or more avenues through which that creative flood can express itself–if you neglect to, you could find yourself drowning in emotion and frustrated by a lack of forward progress. Also benefiting you this year: thinking before you do, and using your personal authority to avoid hurting others, just as much as you’ll use it to avoid getting hurt yourself. Good luck!
