Today is Thursday and until about 2:30pm on the East Coast we are all going to feel like we can't start the car, we can't wake up, we can't...we can't. Stop and start is how it will be. Don't frustrate yourself... Just back peddle till then. Moon slides into Leo and everything picks up. Expectation of this moon is lots of expression and good fun.

Tomorrow is the total eclipse of the sun. Will fill you in later...

Fight-the-fight

Good Day to Begin the Week

Monday is a Good Day. The Moon is in the sign of Gemini which will keep the lines of communication busy. Gemini never rests. There is so much to do and why waste time sleeping or eating. If you need to travel short distances or want to tell your story, today is a good day. This energy continues into Tuesday until just before 11:30am. There will be a brief break and the moon will return in Cancer a little after 1pm. Best thing to do is take an early lunch. Cancer makes the request to nurture, to eat well and to stay fluid. Wednesday the moon remains in Cancer all day so that mid-week energy is very good. Cancer always allows us to seek what we need. Taurus and Cancer are the best times for this.

Perhaps we all need a little inspiration as the month of July disappears. If you have something you feel passionate about, like writing, painting or music please give yourself permission to spend a little time everyday enjoying what you love to do. Do not let time slip by, ignore age and life status, just do it. Do your dream...you can always be what you dreamed...

Have the best day everyday. Fight-the-fight...

Weekend of the Best Opportunity

The Taurus Moon joined us just after 9am Friday. We do enjoy the embrace of this moon and if we are wise, we should use the energy to get what our needs met. You should feel like the invited guest in situations where you require assistance. Most often the response is very generous. There is a nice cosmic energy going on at this time and if you are grounded and organized you can put forth very strong energy and opportunities should follow. Sunday Gemini trades places with our Taurus Moon this happens about noon leaving the morning on Sunday very loose and not the best time to do anything more than sleep late and read the paper.

My audience of readers has found its way into the cancer survivor community. I am honored to find myself among such brave individuals. The message of hope and survival in Belly of the Whale is beginning to reach out further and further. Please help take the message out into your community. Stay aware - stay healthy.

Have the best day everyday.

Welcome Leo...

The exchange of Cancer into Leo is hours away. Those born today are Sun in Cancer and those born tomorrow are Sun in Leo. Either way those babies will both have the same moon sign: Pisces. The Cancer Sun folk will fair better than the Leo Sun people. Water flows into water but water puts out fire and Leo is a fire sign. For those of us just trying to navigate the planet a Pisces Moon allows us to play on sympathy and compassion. Emotions are worn on one's sleeve and there can be many tears...On Wednesday, mid-week, Aries will take over and all the weeping will cease. Leo and Aries are both fire signs which means the heat will be turned up. Use an Aries Moon to initiate projects and ideas. Patience is always at a premium so practice self-control. Good Days are what the week is about...use the energy well.

There is no time like the present to make yourself aware of breast cancer. Making Strides 2008 will be kicking off in a few weeks. Volunteer your time, pass the word: fight-the-fight.

Have the best day every day.

Full Moon Weekend

The Moon is Full in Capricorn at 3:59am. After that she slides off radar until just after 11:30am. Expect the morning rush hour to be full of fools, stubborn fools. This Full Moon has Jupiter close by. The two together pump up emotions and expand the joy of eating. Aquarius will rule the weekend which will leave much room for surprise. Not until Sunday will we have another blip and that will be short,7:30pm until 9pm.

Pisces will bring us into Monday. No need to think so far ahead. Enjoy the light of the night sky and begin preparations over the next two weeks for the Solar Eclipse - New Moon on August first.

Fight-the-fight...stay aware...keep hope alive.

Have the best day everyday.

This could be the start of a Good Week

The siren call of summer has lured me away from my keyboard and the observance of Good Days and Not-So-Good-Days. Please forgive. Truth is we get by with or without the knowledge of such things but we fare better when we have a reason for the unexplainable. The Moon moved into Sagittarius about 11am this morning and will stay in that optimistic sign until late Tuesday night. If you began a long journey today, then you chose a perfect day. If you are seeking honesty, the next few days will be all about the truth.

Midweek-Wednesday the Moon will slide into Capricorn early-early in the morning. The change is more business like, a bit more serious and always with determination. What you begin at a Capricorn moon will require work, but the rewards can be very fruitful.

I was made aware of the following web site: Women and Cancer check it out and pass it on.

Have the best day everyday.

Happy Fourth of July

The Leo Moon watched over us so well on the Fourth...there were expressions of patriotism across the country. We are after all Americans and proud to wear the red, white and blue.

Leo remains until Sunday early morning when there will be a quick change of costume and Virgo takes over. There will be a decided difference in attitude as people are very careful, cautious and critical.

June was cancer survivor month but that does not keep us from fighting-the-fight in July. Remember to spread awareness daily.

Have a great day every day.

Talk later.

Great Day carry on...

It is clear that this star gazer is on holiday...good days or not-so-good-days I've been in the land of no time and no dates. A good place to be every now and then. The Moon has flowed into Cancer and this is mid-week of the holiday and things should be good today. This is the moon that asks us to ask, to nurture to be with family. Since gas is so high and travel is so pinched, do what you need to do to be with the ones you love. There is no better time and no better place to be...

Strides for Breast Cancer will be with us before we know it. Find an American Cancer Society near you and donate some time or join in the walk. Make it your business to make strides for cancer research. Join us in New York City this fall. Belly of the Whale and I will be there doing our part.

Fight-the-fight...

Talk later...
