It’s time to take inventory of how well you’re capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities. So let me ask you, Aries: Have you been mak- ing reconnaissance missions into previously forbidden territory? Are you seeking adventures beyond the borders of your known world? I hope so. I hope you’re blowing your own mind on a regular basis, both by exposing it to ideas it has never dared to entertain and by seeking out exotic experiences it has no precedents for. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): We’re almost halfway through 2007. Let’s take inventory of how well you’re capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities. Are you becoming a better judge of character? Have you cultivated your skill at reading people’s energy and under- standing what motivates them? I hope so, because 2007 should be the year you generate big benefits for yourself by bringing out the best in your allies and cohorts. Whenever you catalyze their poten- tials, the universe will in turn conspire to catalyze your potentials. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): We’re almost halfway through 2007. It’s time to take inventory of how well you’re capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities. So let me ask you, Gemini: Are you working hard to heal the indecisiveness that has dissipated your energy in the past? I hope so. You’ve never had a better chance to unify your divided mind than you have now; you will continue to be the beneficiary of unprecedented help from cosmic forces whenever you make concentrated efforts to coordinate your diverse desires. I urge you to invoke all your ingenuity as you seek out the magic that will make you a virtuoso of variety. CANCER (June 21-July 22): How well are you capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities, Cancerian? Now that we’re almost halfway through 2007, let’s take an inventory. I’m hoping that six months from now, you’ll look back and make the following declara- tion: “I can’t believe I’m saying this, but this year I realized in many colorful ways that limitations are my friends. The obstructions I faced eventually forced me to become far more resourceful than I’d ever been before. The wastefulness I uncovered showed me how important it is to shed my trivial wishes and focus intensely on my top priority desires. The confusions I encountered taught me valu- able secrets about how to master my emotions and dissolve my superstitious fears.” LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): How well are you capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities, Leo? Now that we’re almost halfway through 2007, let’s take an inventory. I’m hoping that six months from now, you’ll look back and say the following: “This was the year I learned how to play and have fun on a higher level. I resurrected everything I 36 JUNE 21, 2007 knew about playing and having fun as a child, and applied it to my life as an adult. I liberated my imagination in the bedroom and in the workplace; I gave myself permission to seek out amusement and delight as if they were the holiest motivations of all. I cavorted and joked and fooled around as if my dreams depended on it.” ted yourself to the arts of liberation? There’s still a lot of time to become even more receptive and responsive to the steady stream of wake-up calls that life is sending your way. For the next six months, you’ll have cosmic luck on your side whenever you actively court the fertile blessings of future shock. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): How well are you capitalizing on this CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): We’re almost halfway through 2007. Let’s take inventory of how well you’re capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities. Are you exorcising the ghosts that have messed with you for so long? Have you been wrapping up all unfin- ished business and resolving every ambiguous pain-in-the-ass that has sapped your energy? I hope so. By your next birthday, I’m root- ing for you to finally graduate from the lessons you’ve been studying for years. Then you’ll be primed and receptive for the fresh teach- ings that will begin flowing your way in 2008. year’s unique opportunities, Virgo? Now that we’re almost halfway through 2007, let’s take an inventory. I’m hoping that six months from now, you’ll look back and say the following: “This was the year I came all the way home. It was a turning point when I learned to speak with my own voice instead of trying to speak with the voices of everyone who’s ever been important to me. In 2007 I found my power spot, my mother lode, my sacred ground. For the first time, I have a deeply felt certainty that I belong here on this planet; I belong here in my life; I belong here in this community and this mis- sion and this body.” LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): We’re almost halfway through 2007. Let’s take inventory of how well you’re capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities. I hope you’ve realized by now that although you’ve always been a pretty good communicator, there’s room for you to become even better. For instance, you can learn to be much better at saying what you really mean instead of what you think peo- ple want to hear, yet without sacrificing your natural tact. You can also become more adept at staying true to yourself while still being sensitive to other people; you can increasingly find that you don’t have to lose touch with what you really feel as you empathetically tune in to what everyone else feels. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Now that we’re almost halfway through 2007, it’s time to assess how well you’re capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities. So let me ask you a few questions. Have you been working hard to increase your value? I don’t just mean economically, although it’s true that this is the best time in over a decade for you to make more money and launch long-term plans for financial growth. But I hope that you’re also adding to your worth in every way you can imagine, like by getting the training and new skills that will make you irresistible to future employers, lovers, and collab- orators; and by purifying your motivations and clarifying your ethics and bolstering your integrity. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Now that we’re almost halfway through 2007, it’s time to assess how well you’re capitaliz- ing on this year’s unique opportunities. So let me ask you a few pointed questions. Have you been reinventing yourself from the ground up at least once a week? Have you been shedding old shticks and learning new tricks? How relentlessly have you commit- AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): How well are you capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities, Aquarius? Now that we’re almost halfway through 2007, let’s take an inventory. I’m hoping that six months from now, you’ll look back and say something like the follow- ing: “I’m pleased that this year I’ve met many new people and expand- ed my network and reached a bigger audience. I’m ecstatic that I have deepened my connections with pragmatic idealists who share my core values. And I’m proud that I have honed my message and product so well that I’m having a more profound influence than ever before.” PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): How well are you capitalizing on this year’s unique opportunities, Pisces? Now that we’re almost halfway through 2007, let’s take an inventory. I’m hoping that six months from now, you’ll look back and say something like the following: “To my astonishment, this was the year I beat 70 percent of my fear of success and dissolved 80 percent of my tendency to sabotage my ambitions. Not only that. To my great satisfaction, I shed 70 percent of my martyr complex, lost 75 percent of my fascination for glam- orous suffering, and smashed 85 percent of my perverse attraction to the victim archetype. This was one of the Best. Years. Ever.” HOMEWORK : To check out my expanded audio forecast of your destiny for the second half of 2007, go to http://RealAstrology.com.
