REMINDER
Astrologers should remind themselves that there are important things on earth to be mindful of and that it can also be helpful for one to develop a strong sense of internal locus of control; instead of an external locus of control, for example: blaming misfortune. try to reflect and practice—you can’t control the stars per se, but you can at least control yourself.
Quote
The chart and the transits are a map of symbols, showing how things feel for us inside and how we respond.
CAUTION
Astrology suggests we have choices; no matter how “fated” or beyond our control a situation may seem to be. We can alter our reality through change of perspective, using imagination to re-vision our approach.
ATTENTION
Symbols do not tell us precisely what to do; instead they open our creative awareness and invite our participation as creators of our own destiny. If you don’t like what a symbol is presenting; simply shift your view and consider other good values that symbol brings.
Styles
Each sign has its own style of expression and if we do not honor or pay attention to this, our wellbeing suffers.
