How are we failing to support our own dream? That may be the (harsh) question we put to ourselves today, or maybe it’s pointed out by circumstances, but either way, we become aware of some way in which we aren’t serving those idealized goals put forward, consciously or not, by the Soul. This is not something to beat yourself up about; it’s merely a chance to re-align and fine tune, to re-dedicate energy that may have been useful elsewhere, temporarily. In this case, our actions and choices, rather than circumstances imposed externally, are the core reason we’ve strayed, and the central means of getting back to where we want to be–so that means it’s entirely in our own hands. Our attention can be focused through the material, and through those causes and commitments we embrace. Serving these, by honoring them, re-dedicating ourselves to them, or simply by giving our full awareness to the reality of things, will bring us back to our intended path. Too, take care that you aren’t misled today–we’re susceptible to the illusion, to the sleight of hand, to the gossamer mirage spun before us by the ill-informed, or by those with ill-intentions. Eyes on what we find sacred prevents us falling for deceptions.

For those born with the Sun at 19 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). It’s your year, dear Gemini, now through your next birthday, to test your dreams, and to make the viable ones happen. This may come about through less than comfortable circumstances, ones that carry an emotional impact, but that are designed to show you potentials, as well as what are for all intents and purposes impossibilities. This can be an exciting and rewarding period, if you hold your dreams in a relaxed, relatively open hand, and remember that they don’t belong to you, so much as rest in your care so that they can be realized. You may find just the right partner this year for meeting goals and bringing ambitions to reality–but be very clear about what is and is not the province of any partnership you enter into, as confusion of roles is a distinct possibility. Opportunities, especially to alter the reality picture, are yours–shape things wisely. Good luck!
