Monthly Forecast for February 2026



Monthly Forecast for February 2026

By Sarah Jane Grace

Posted on February 3, 2026
 

 

As we each continue to find ways to connect more consciously with the threads that weave their way through the fabric of life, there is a sense that we are beginning to feel more aligned with the ebb and flow of the cosmic tides. These threads represent all of the seemingly random and incongruent experiences in life, but they also represent the more spiritual and ethereal as well. The cosmic tides are the more external forces that often create diversions and changes to the script of life, taking us in new directions, or creating a pause for reflection or contemplation.

With 2026 taking shape as a year for living more magically, it’s time for some of those long-held ‘musts’ and ‘oughts’ we all live by, to dissolve and fall away. So many of us shape our lives with the belief that we need to get life right or that we need to do more, be more, or achieve more in order to be happy. However, it’s important to realise that these scripted beliefs are not always inspiring or empowering, as they can also be shackles that tether us and keep us locked in the belief that we are somehow ‘less than’.

It’s time to reconnect to the fabric of life, to sense the true ebb and flow within our hearts and souls. When we pause and breathe deeply, many of those ‘oughts’ and ‘musts’ fade away as we step back into that vast, almost luminous space of conscious living. It’s hard to condense and distil this expansiveness as it’s undefinable and nebulous, almost ‘other worldly’, yet when we breathe deeply, we reconnect to this vastness and realise that there is great power and strength to be found in the nooks and crannies of life. We may feel as though we are standing at the edge of the universe with no guide, map or GPS, but when we take our breath gently within, we realise that this is exactly how it should be.

Those ‘oughts’ and ‘musts’ may still burn brightly in our consciousness, but it’s only when they fade or implode, that something new becomes possible. Of course, it’s important to acknowledge with tenderness that many of these ‘oughts’ have played significant roles in shaping us into the people we are today, but it also feels liberating to let them go as they no longer hold us in their gravity, leaving us free to turn towards the new.

So many spiritual souls are feeling isolated and alone, but we are each fragments of the universe trying to connect. Sometimes this connection isn’t physical, it’s energetic or spiritual, but the more we sense the threads that unify us all, the more we realise that it’s time to chart the path ahead using intuition, belief and trust, moving towards a life that feels more expansive and radiant than ever before. Many of these shifts are subtle, almost incomprehensibly whispered through space and time, but when we realise this connection is with the quiet wisdom of the universe, we can begin to find a new way of living and being.

February looks set to see many of us shaking free from old beliefs, and letting go of old scripts, as we each seek out the space to truly express our creativity and gifts. We all have potential, but so many of us doubt this either through misplaced beliefs or life events. However, unless we acknowledge the sacredness of all that we are, how can we step away from the life expected of us and towards our hopes and dreams? It’s important to remember that we are not bound to any particular storyline in life, we are free spirits, and although life can sometimes oppress and repress us, we can still find new ways to shine. So many of us spend our lives trying to support those around us, trying to dim our own light in order to let someone else shine, but it’s time to realise that this can only ever be short lived as we were each born to shine. We each have the potential to live life more magically, to express our creativity, and to feel the threads that connect us all.

Listen to those inner whispers and find the time to breathe more deeply into life as life is seeking out ways to breathe more deeply into each and every one of us. As we step beyond the noise of expectation and habit, we can begin to unthread those lingering beliefs that hold us back and find a new way to embrace destiny. Although we are sparks of universal consciousness, we are not insignificant, but we each illuminate brightly like the millions of stars above.

February looks set to be a time to feel our connection with the stars, and with the power within our hearts and souls, as we begin the journey towards living in ways that are more aligned by intuition and open-heartedness. This is a time to find new ways of living and being that cultivate unity, connection and happiness. So, listen to the inner hush, feel the power rising up within, and take the time to honour the spaces between spaces, and the moments between moments, that come together to forge our life experiences into a magnificent and majestic whole.

Life will always be a complex and often bewildering tangle of threads, and there are always knots, kinks, endings and beginnings, but the more we try to find peace with this complexity, the more deeply we can connect to the process. When we allow beliefs to fall away, instead of rushing to fill the gaps, it’s time to find sustenance and nourishment in the spaces, knowing that we are all energy and consciousness, like stardust twinkling and sparkling through space and time. We are magical, amazing and awe-inspiring souls, and this is the true gift we each have in life…

For now, and as always, I wish you all kinds of wonderful.

With love,

Sarah-Jane

Aries
♈

As you continue to focus on your true priorities in life, you are beginning to turn inward in order to listen more closely to the whispers in your heart and soul. It’s as though you are feeling more aligned with the pulse of your soul, sensing ways to live a deeper, and more fulfilling life. A new path is emerging, previously shrouded in mist, tucked away in the nooks and crannies of your consciousness, bringing you insight into how to find joy in the unexpected corners of your life. You have spent a great deal of time trying to be the person you want everyone to be, trying to shape your life by ‘oughts’, ‘musts’ and ‘shoulds’, feeling that you need to try harder, do more, and be more. Yet, you have come to realise that your tendency to put the needs of others above your own has left you feeling disconnected from your true essence, as you have pushed aside your hopes and dreams, leaving them to gather dust.

However, with an energy of hope rising up within you, it seems that you are beginning to clear some much-needed space, removing the weeds and overgrown branches that have taken a stronghold within. Of course, there is nothing wrong with the weeds, it’s just a sense that they are keeping you from re-connecting wholeheartedly with your true self. Yet, this isn’t a time to bring in a bulldozer to clear space, it’s a time for gentle pottering, a little pruning, and taking the time to pause and reflect. In many ways, each branch represents those ‘oughts’, ‘musts’ and obligations that shape your everyday life, and the more you release, the more you can feel your inner world breathing freely. As a result, new shoots of possibility are starting to emerge, making way for a new way of living and being…

Taurus
♉

Life has always been a smorgasbord of seemingly ramshackle, incongruent moments that often seem perplexing and bewildering, making it hard to make sense of the bigger picture as to how it all fits together. Of course, there are moments that feel inspiring and magical, but there are a great many more moments that feel more mundane and pedestrian. This is the nature of life, but it’s easy to become entangled in the maze of pedestrian-ness, feeling disconnected from your creativity, passion and innovativeness, forgetting to pause when the magic appears, losing sight of what makes you tick, and what brings you joy. It’s easy to get caught up in things to do, people to see and places to go, yet even when you’re busy being busy, it’s still important to notice the magic, as bringing your attention to it enables you to connect to it more consciously. February looks set to be a month for you to take some time out from the treadmill of your life in order to re-connect to your true essence: to those aspects of life that make your soul smile. Although there will always be things to do, it’s time to be more discerning in order to honour your own needs more.

There have been many times when you’ve felt as though you have no room to breathe or think, as the ‘to do’ list is vast and cumbersome, weighing you down on many levels. Yet the harder you’ve tried to search for space, the more you’ve realised how little wiggle room you’ve left yourself. It’s as though you’ve been slowly tying yourself up in the knots of ‘oughts’ and ‘musts’, becoming more entangled and disconnected with each passing day. It’s only by stepping back to pause for a while that you can see the knots and realise breaking free isn’t about struggle, it’s about letting go, breathing deeply and allowing your own power to rise up again…

Gemini
♊

You have always been a soul of multiple layers, hidden depths and intriguing complexity. Being you is frequently a source of bewilderment and perplexity as your depths are incomprehensible and unfathomable, and your enquiring mind explores the space beyond spaces, contemplating the unanswered questions in life, unearthing fresh insights into your experiences. Of course, you already know most, if not all, of this already, and although it’s amazing to have such far reaching insight, it doesn’t always feel like a blessing, as it can leave you seeking out the mystery of your existence. Whilst it can be deliciously delightful to explore the far reaches of life, and it can be enlightening to dive into the macrocosm and microcosm, often at the same time, but there comes a time when you need to ask yourself if it’s continuing to bring you insight and clarity, or just more unanswered questions. The far reaches of your consciousness tingle and buzz gently with anticipation when you step into the incomprehensible, but your mind wants more clarity now. It’s almost as though your consciousness has a will of its own, pulling you off into unchartered terrain, but you know there has to be a balance with the other facets of your being, or you will end up constantly chasing your tail.

You see life very differently to others, and although you do not deliberately try to be different, normal just doesn’t fit you! You are vibrant, colourful, creative and magical, and your experience of life is so different to those around you. No one else can truly understand your inner workings, and whilst a few might come close, overall, it can be a lonely place. This can be frustrating for you, but it’s important to acknowledge that the reason no one ‘gets’ you, is because you don’t want to be ‘got’! So, take a deep breath and open up to connecting more consciously to those that truly matter…

Cancer
♋

February looks set to be a pivotal month when it comes to making some decisions about how you live and your path ahead. You have spent a lot of time and energy on keeping on keeping on, going through the motions, trying to live the life you feel you should be living, doing your best to keep everyone around you happy. Although you have made the most of life as you’ve found it, there is a sense of longing deep within your heart and soul that wants more: more room to breathe, more room to be you, and more room to just…be. These inklings of restlessness hover around your consciousness like fireflies darting about, and you often feel them more of a hindrance than an inspiration, so you push them away, or even swat them when it all gets too much. Yet this mostly seems to be because you put so much energy into trying so hard to live the life you feel you ought to be living, rather than believing in yourself and your gifts, and living the life you were born to live. This might all sound very ‘chocolate-boxey’ and idyllic, and you are a realist, but intuitively you can sense that there is more to life, so why not explore the possibility that living the life you want to be living is within your reach?

When those fireflies of possibility dart around, try to take some time to acknowledge them, follow them, and dance with their energy in order to re-connect to the core of your being, as this will help you to re-centre and re-balance. You are strong, wise, and intuitive, and it’s time to wholeheartedly embrace these gifts now in order to stop trying so hard to get life ‘right’ and instead focus on living your best life. What lights up your soul? What brings you joy? Open up your heart and soul, turn towards your gifts, and fly free…

Leo
♌

As the buoyancy within your heart and soul continues to grow and build, there is a sense that you are seeing your life with a fresh perspective. It’s hard to articulate, but it’s as though you are seeing your life, your path and your gifts with a new energy of possibility, and it’s undeniably exciting. It seems that the more you’ve turned towards your inner world to guide you, you have discovered new ways of experiencing meaning and joy, and both wisdom and insight have surfaced in the ordinary moments of your everyday life. As you adjust to this powerful shift in energy and focus, you continue to clear clutter on all levels of your existence which is allowing your inner world to breathe more freely than ever before. As a result, you are beginning to feel more aligned with your true nature than ever before.

Whilst you are a free spirit at heart, you still often find yourself guided by those long-held ‘shoulds’ and ‘musts’. However, the more you have embraced your sacred inner world, the more these have started falling away, like leaves in the autumn, gently drifting with beauty and majesty. Try to set them free with love as they each had a role to play in creating the person you are today. Of course, it’s part of life to carry elements of duty and responsibility, but the weight of carrying so many rules (‘oughts’, ‘musts’ etc) has left you feeling disconnected from your own power and wisdom. When you pause and feel the buoyancy of change rising up within you, try to see it as an opportunity to unfasten more of those invisible cords of belief that have kept you tethered in life for so long. You are a passionate, creative and majestic being, and it’s time to celebrate this now as you stand before a new dawn, arms upstretched, reaching towards a more illumined way of living and being….

Virgo
♍

As you continue to find strength, peace and clarity in the space between here and there, there is a sense that you are beginning to realise that the more you breathe into those spaces (those small snippets of pause in an otherwise busy life), the more of those spaces you can create. Your life has felt out of kilter for a long time now, mostly as a result of focusing on where you feel you need to be in order to be happy. Whilst this creates a goal to reach, it also highlights the gap between where you are, and where you want to be. However, as you re-connect more wholeheartedly to your strength and wisdom, the more you have realised that completing all of those ‘to do’ lists isn’t the path to happiness. It’s cultivating happiness that’s the path to happiness. This might sound a bit daft, but it’s so easy to get caught up with things to do, people to see and places to go, and after a while, lose sight of the bigger picture of your own life.

You are a wisdom being and deeply intuitive, and you have been pondering how to live a more fulfilling and enriching life for quite some time. This is still very much in the thinking about stages though, so this is a wonderful opportunity to listen to the wisdom within your heart and soul to help you shape and define a new way of living and being that focuses less on those ‘to do’ lists, and more on how you want to feel. This may sound a little too ‘woolly’ for you, but when you connect to your intuition, you sense that your path ahead is more connected to the pursuit of happiness and to finding peace within in order to be more creative, spiritual and connected to life. As you breathe into the pauses and spaces in life, feel your energy rising and let your intuition guide you…

Libra
♎

As the dynamic energy continues to grow and build within your heart and soul, you are beginning to sense more magic and possibility in the nooks and crannies, especially in the more ordinary moments of life. This is a process that has been long in the making, as you begin a new chapter of your life that is being written from the inside, out. For a great deal of your life you have felt as though you’ve been carried along by the currents of other people’s lives, as though the story of your life is more a script not of your own design. You have tried to bend and flex in order to fit the mould of ‘ordinary’ that you feel is expected of you (the conditioning and beliefs that often grow over time), but this surge of dynamic energy has inspired you to contemplate how to live your life in a way that feels more illuminated from within, and more connected to your true essence. This feels tantalising and exciting, like a fresh chance to change the script and write your own, and your soul feels vibrant with possibility and quiet wonder. This is a state of being that’s hard to define, as this inspirational energy is still difficult to grasp; it feels beautiful and evocative, but nebulous at the same time.

So, take some time to sit with these energies and gaze into the depths of your soul to re-ignite your inner fire, as you contemplate your dreams and gifts. When you use the light of your soul to guide you, there is a silent divinity within you that both inspires and empowers you to have the courage and strength to walk a new path. Have the self-belief to let your inner knowing drift into alignment as you let go of the clutter and start to break free from those structures and beliefs that have held you back. This is your time to shine like the stars and to let the starlight gently take you by the hand…

Scorpio
♏

As you continue to seek out ways to fan the flames of the fire that burns in your heart and soul, there is a sense that you are beginning to make some significant realisations connected to your true priorities in life. In many ways, it’s been easier to drift with the flow of other people’s lives, as it’s made for a quieter life. However, although drifting has taken you to unchartered terrain, you seem ready to slip beyond the gravity of your old way of living and being, reaching towards more breathing space and more freedom. It’s hard to articulate clearly as your depths are so nebulous, but as the familiar beliefs and structures that once defined your life fall away, you feel more able to ebb and flow with the currents of your own life once again. It’s as though you’re no longer being held in the orbit of the planets (people) around you, and you are finally able to sense your own rhythm and flow once again.

This is a profound shift, and it looks set to open up a plethora of new pathways ahead. However, give yourself the time and space you need, as you are still recalibrating and adjusting to this shifting trajectory, and although it feels exciting and exhilarating, it’s important not to rush, as you have some important decisions to make connected to how you live your life. This shift is more about finding your own centre once again, in order to honour your own hopes and dreams. So, take a deep breath and feel the warmth from your inner fires glowing brighter and brighter, just like the stars. This shift is expansive, but it’s still undefined, as the path ahead is yet to be chartered or planned, so this is an important time to listen to your intuition to guide you, as you re-shape and re-define your life from the inside, out…

Sagittarius
♐

Deep within the core of your being, in the far reaches of your consciousness, there is a passionate and fiery spark of life-force that makes you, you. This spark is your creativity, ingenuity and vision, as well as your courage and sense of purpose. Even when the skies of life have darkened during challenging times, your inner spark has twinkled as a soothing reminder of your passion, inspiring you to follow your truth and to seek out new terrain on all levels of your life. In many ways, your inner spark is like a beacon that illuminates your path ahead, guiding you when needed and always present. Your inner spark radiates into all of the nooks and crannies of your heart and soul, inspiring you, reminding you, and guiding you. Reminding you might seem odd, but you are good at becoming distracted and drifting off course when something piques your interest. Although you have discovered a great deal when you’ve explored uncharted terrain, it does seem important to be clear about what you truly want in life. After all, if you’re not clear about what you want, how can you step towards it?

So, try to take some time for reflection to connect more consciously with your inner spark, and to allow your essence to re-centre and re-calibrate, in order to re-shape your path ahead. Change is a constant in life, but there are times when you need to choose between drifting along with the currents or being the instigator of change. Let your phenomenal intuition guide you as you start to believe more wholeheartedly in your gifts; it’s time to shake up the apple cart of life and find a new way to enjoy those apples! So, lighten the load of things ‘to do’ and replace them with breathing space, just some clear space to rest, reflect, connect and become. Try not to overthink this, let your intuition take you by the hand and feel the possibilities of life expand…

Capricorn
♑

February looks set to be a quieter month after a rather rambunctious and tumultuous chapter of your life. Although you’ve handled the challenges well, and you’ve stood firm in those stormy seas, you’ve barely had time to take a breath, let alone to contemplate the ramifications of your experiences, so you seem more than ready now for calm seas, gentle breezes and a rest. However, although you are yearning for some quiet, the momentum of change that’s been building for so long looks set to continue, albeit likely in more subtle ways. However, this is not something to dread, it’s more of a willingness to allow the process to unfold, as you find your feet and realign your heart and soul. You are wise enough to know that even the challenging times bring you both insight and knowledge, but you also know that life doesn’t have to be challenging to find either insight or knowledge. So, you would be forgiven for feeling confused with what’s next, sensing more uncertainty than certainty when it comes to your path ahead. However, instead of feeling in-between where you were and where you want to be, take some time to notice where you are now, as these calmer and quieter seas are not an empty waiting room to sit in until something better comes along, but a wonderful opportunity to re-shape and re-define your life in the here and now.

In essence, the change of pace over the weeks ahead is a chance for you to re-affirm your true priorities in life, and to use the wisdom of your life experiences to set sail on a new adventure. The details may be sketchy, but your intuition will guide you if you allow it to. As you pause and reflect, try to find joy in the ebb and flow of your life as you re-connect to your hopes and dreams, finding new ways to bring them to life…

Aquarius
♒

As you continue to focus on your true priorities in life, there is a sense that you are beginning to re-align your heart and soul with your hopes and dreams. As a result, February has an expansive nature to it, a time of opportunity and momentum, akin to the spring flowers bursting into life after their wintery slumber. As a visionary, it’s often easier for you to think about your path ahead, rather than focusing on where you are today, and you often see your own journey through space and time from a universal perspective which brings you great insight, but can sometimes leave you feeling uncertain as to where you fit into the bigger scheme of things. Obviously intuitively you know that you are a vibrant and unique soul, and you don’t really have any particular yearning to fit in, you would instead prefer to shimmer and shine like the effervescent soul you know yourself to be. However, it’s also important for you to have an anchor or reference point of origin as it gives you context.

So, whilst your ability to gaze so far across time and space does enable you to create reference points in order to understand where you are going and why, you can often feel yourself being carried along by the waves of life, and this can sometimes leave you feeling discombobulated and befuddled, and your usually clear focus blurs your path ahead. Try to take some time, through mindful breathing, meditation or spending time in nature, to reset your inner balance, as that will help to shift your focus more towards the here and now. The more you can become present, the more your consciousness can expand into life, connecting you to the magic and infinite spectrum of possibility both around you, and within you. Feel your creativity, self-belief and courage rising up to the surface, as this is your time to shine…

Pisces
♓

As your inner light continues to radiate brightly like a lighthouse, you are beginning to acknowledge that this light is within you, rather than coming from somewhere else. This might sound like a strange statement, but it seems you are very good at stepping back from your intuition and gifts, deferring to the wisdom of others, and feeling as though your own needs and priorities are somehow less important. Of course, you know that this light is within you, but your tendency to ‘disown’ it, means it’s hard for you to connect to the full power of the infinity within your heart and soul. It’s difficult to fully understand the reasons that you defer your gifts, but there is a part of you that seems to struggle with the notion that you are a radiant being. It’s not a difficult leap, after all, your inner lighthouse is powerful and bright, and those around you can see this from miles away, but you need to see it, feel it and become one with it.

It’s a bit like a child playing hide and seek by covering their eyes and hoping they won’t be seen, you simply cannot hide your inner light, and why would you want to? Obviously, only you can answer this question, but it’s an important time to contemplate this now, as your light shines brightly for a reason, and you have the strength, wisdom and courage to live your best life, so what’s holding you back? Is it a mis-placed sense of modesty? Or seeking out a quieter life by going with the flow of other people’s lives? Both are likely true in some degree or another, but it’s important to stop feeling passive like a piece of driftwood and instead embrace your true potential. You are nearing a new chapter of your life that feels more expansive and enlightening than ever before, so let your light shine brightly and believe.

Monthly Forecast: Message for February 2024

Monthly Forecast for February 2024

By Sarah Jane Grace

Posted on February 2, 2024
 

 

Despite a somewhat energetically bumpy start to the year, there is a growing sense of calm emerging as we each begin to find a deeper sense of peace within. The ebb and flow of life is always changing, always moving, and although we each intuitively know this, it can be hard at times when we feel lost and weary and all we want is to rest and be still. When life feels too heavy or too challenging, we can lose sight of perspective and the bigger picture, feeling trapped in the chaos, pressure, and stress. Over time, this can feel suffocating and tiring, as though we are constantly pushing against the currents. Of course, there definitely are times when we are pushing against the currents, but there are many other moments when we’re calmly going with the flow, but these can fade away as the chaos so often takes centre stage. This is only natural, but it seems important that we each try to find ways to step into the peace that resides within us, as the more we get lost in the external stress, the less connected we become to our hearts and souls.

In many ways, finding peace comes from a willingness to embrace the concept of ‘not knowing’, of welcoming uncertainty and realising that it’s ‘not knowing’ that can become a true source of joy, inspiration, and creativity as it’s a sign that despite the inherently unknowable nature of life, the more we let go of trying to gather certainty and guarantees, the more we realise the need to live as fully as possible in each and every moment. So, instead of being a barrier to living, not knowing has the power to set us free from conditional and linear living. There is power in embracing the moment and choosing to live as wholeheartedly as possible. When we sit on the periphery and wait for a better moment, we can have a very long wait.

In essence, it’s time to realise that the more we can live in the moment, the more we can channel our gifts into living the best life possible. We can never know what lies around the next corner, so instead of living in fear of uncertainty, when we befriend it, those self-imposed prison walls of doubt and procrastination fall away leaving us to fly free. It doesn’t matter how much we want certainty or guarantees, it just isn’t possible, we can struggle, fight and resist, but it doesn’t change things, so coming to terms with the impermanence of a shifting world can bring us grace and serenity.

Finding peace and acceptance in an ever-changing landscape takes courage and wisdom, but we are evolving and creative souls and it’s time now to seek out new ways of living and being. This is easier said than done when we find ourselves being tossed around by the storms of life, but when we turn towards the storms and allow our intuition to guide us, we find ways to flourish and thrive. It’s hard to articulate this shift, but the more we let go, the more peace we find.

Embracing uncertainty is not an easy concept, but denying it only holds us in a state of resistance and this creates friction, leaving us struggling to express our gifts and creativity. This isn’t the same as giving up, it’s a willingness to accept the uncertainty of life but still choosing to live life to the full. We cannot avoid challenges, nor can we ‘fix’ all of our pain and suffering, but we can begin to find more balance in life, and this can help us to navigate the challenges with more wisdom and peace.

Living wholeheartedly means taking a chance on life, exploring new terrain, and opening up to the unknown. So many of us hover on the periphery, doubting our gifts or waiting for a better moment, and so many of us never get the chance to grab hold of life with both hands. Of course, grabbing life with both hands means opening up to some good experiences and some not so good experiences, but that’s an inevitable part of life. We cannot outrun challenges, but we can learn and evolve from them. Life is for living, not for trying to anaesthetise ourselves from the struggles. We can build brick walls around our hearts and souls, but surely all this achieves is to further numb ourselves from living a rich and full life?

It’s time to embrace our strengths, resilience, and gifts, and instead of feeling broken, alone, or disconnected, to seek out ways to find connection once again. There sadly isn’t an instruction manual for life, so we each need to find our own way. Even though we may feel alone, there are always like-minded souls connected to us by a unity of vision. When we pause and take a deep breath, we can re-centre once again.

Life is an adventure and an opportunity to flourish and thrive. Happiness is less about the things we do, the people we see, the places we go or the things we achieve, but more about how we feel and our state of being. It’s about how we breathe into life and how we let life breathe into us…

For now, and as always, I wish you all kinds of wonderful.

With love,

Sarah-Jane

Aries
♈

As the light within your heart and soul continues to shine brightly, there is a sense that you are beginning to see in more detail the nooks and crannies within you that have been in the shadows for so long. These nooks and crannies represent aspects of your hopes and dreams, many of which you parked some time ago in order to do more and be more for those around you. Yet, although you have given of yourself willingly, your hopes and dreams never completely faded away and now you are seeking out more balance and harmony on all levels of your life. Your inner light is illuminating your true priorities, reminding you that your dreams are still ready to be explored. As you continue to re-shape and re-define your sense of self, you are beginning to understand yourself, and your motivations, on a much deeper level, therefore intuitively you know how important it is to acknowledge your hopes and dreams as they represent a vibrant expression of your true essence.

Whilst you will always be there for others, it’s time to be more present for yourself as you start to understand why you do the things you do and explore new ways to live your life. Of course, it’s not easy when you’re caught up in repeating cycles, habits, or conditioning, but intuitively you know that you have the spark, creativity, and tenacity to break free from the cycles that have shaped and defined your life for so long. Let go of any frustration you may feel though as this creates friction on your path ahead, instead find the wisdom and knowledge in your experiences and learn from the choices you’ve previously made. This is a time for focusing on the present moment rather than looking back and berating yourself for choices made or not made. February is a month to create a new intent and to let your dreams fly free…

Taurus
♉

As you continue to explore the concept of happiness in your life, there is a sense that you are beginning to gain a clearer sense as to the tweaks and adjustments you need to make in order to establish more clarity when it comes to living the life you were born to live. Although you often come across as a passive soul, the fire in your belly burns brightly and rigorously, giving you strength, courage, and determination when it comes to standing in your own truth and acknowledging your own needs and priorities. Yet, happiness is more than this, happiness is not just about eliminating what makes you unhappy, it’s a force in its own right that needs to be cultivated and nurtured. Happiness is a state of being that comes from living your life more wholeheartedly as you create your own boundaries and listen more intently to your own heart and soul. In short, happiness isn’t something to go and get, it’s something to be, it’s a willingness to live in each and every moment with openness and compassion.

It’s hard for you as you bend and flex to accommodate the needs and wants of others, but intuitively you know that it’s time now to create a new storyline that brings more balance to all areas of your life. Take some time to live more consciously and listen to your inner self more instead of charging ahead trying to be everything to everyone. Take some time to breathe deeply and regain your perspective as you step beyond the ‘to do’ list and instead think about what makes your heart sing. February is a time to re-connect to the creativity and magic of your life as you look at the bigger picture and contemplate the paths you’ve walked, the path you’re walking and the paths you’d like to walk. Let your intuition guide you…

Gemini
♊

As you seek out new ways to navigate the storms of life with grace and calmness, there is a sense that you are beginning to realise the importance of stepping more consciously into the present moment. You are a dreamer and a thinker, and your creative spark allows you to drift into the vast expanse of consciousness in order to try to make sense as to why things are the way they are. However, there are times when drifting doesn’t bring you clarity, but only more uncertainty, and these are the times when stepping into the present moment could help you to find your anchor and connect to the peace within your heart and soul. This peace isn’t always overly obvious, particularly when you’re feeling stressed or overwhelmed, but it’s there; it’s always there. Of course, there are times when you feel so discombobulated that you just can’t see a way to connect to the peace within, but these are the times when you need it the most.

Try not to see it as an added distraction, but as a way of being that can help to transport you from chaos to grace. This is something of an over-simplification, but intuitively you can sense the distinctions. You are a wise being, and you are now realising that the challenges you’ve faced have enabled you to transform into something far greater than you ever imagined; you have become more than the sum of your experiences. Every experience matters, even the ones that don’t make sense have deeper meaning, but it’s time to look at these with fresh perspective in order to find a new path ahead. Stop over-thinking and over-analysing absolutely everything! You already know you can’t always find the answers to the many questions you have; sometimes, letting go and letting flow is the only way. Believe in yourself and let grace be your guide…

Cancer
♋

As the energy within your heart and soul continues to lift and shine, there is a sense that you are beginning to see the bigger picture of your life once again. For a long time now, you have spent your time keeping on keeping on, trying to get from where you are to where you’re heading, without really having a clear goal or expectation in mind, just an urge to keep on keeping on. In many ways, you have shifted into autopilot in order to navigate the daily humdrum of life, yet running on the hamster wheel has never suited you, so there is a deep sense of lack and imbalance right at the core of your being as intuitively you want more from life. You are creative and vibrant, and the energy within you is yearning for new avenues of expression and new ways of living and being. Life isn’t just about keeping on keeping on is it? Intuitively you know this isn’t the case, but you seem stuck in a rut with this belief, and you have been finding it really hard to see how you can extricate yourself from the situation.

Sometimes, the harder you look, the less you see. Similarly, the more you keep on keeping on, the less you feel, sense or notice. February looks set to bring you an opportunity for some much-needed breathing space and whilst this might allow you to escape from the rut for a while, it’s a perfect opportunity for you to contemplate how you want to live your life from this moment on. When you feel bogged down, it’s easy to see challenges and brick walls, but when you let your vibrant intuition and creativity illuminate your heart and soul, you can start to see a new light rising over the horizon offering hope, adventure and a new way of living and being…

Leo
♌

As you continue to look beyond the busy-ness of your ‘to do’ list and towards the essence of how you want to live your life, there is a sense that you are beginning to cultivate a deeper understanding of the difference between doing and being. Of course, logically you are well aware of the difference, but you are so often caught up in the lives of others that it can be hard to step beyond the busy-ness and towards achieving clarity when it comes to how you want to feel. Although this may sound confusing, the idea is to melt away the confusion, so you are less pulled about by the needs, wants, and wishes of others, and less influenced by your never-ending ‘to do’ list. Instead you are becoming content to feel your way through life, allowing your intuition to guide you. Life is so often measured by the things you do and achieve, and it can be hard to let go of this and instead focus on cultivating the warmth within your heart and soul as your passion, creativity and inspiration rise up and take centre stage.

As one of life’s ‘do-ers’ this is likely to feel quite challenging, but although you like to be busy, you are naturally deeply intuitive and extremely creative as well, and this side of your nature is longing for some freedom now. February brings an opportunity for you to re-set the balance in order to acknowledge your true priorities and connect more consciously to acknowledging what you truly want in life. Only you can know the answer, but it’s important to acknowledge as it’s a sign that you are re-connecting to your intuition as you re-shape and re-define your life from the inside, out. There isn’t anything for you to do, this is about ‘not doing’, as you step beyond logic and towards balance and joy…

Virgo
♍

As you continue on your journey of self-discovery, there is a sense that you are beginning to dive deeply within in order to try to understand what makes you tick and why you do the things that you do. Although you are a contemplative, intuitive soul, there are times when you feel a sense of bewilderment when it comes to the choices you make and the paths you walk. Whilst this could be said for just about anyone, for you it’s more profound and distinct as there are times when intuitively you know you need to go one way, but you choose to go in the opposite direction. This is partly due to the influence of those around you, but mostly due to a layer of doubt within you that likes to question your intuition and be a bit rebellious. Of course, even when you’ve gone against your intuition, you’ve had some amazing experiences and wonderful insights, but it seems important that you start to explore the reasons why you seem to doubt yourself.

Whilst there is nothing wrong in ignoring your intuition, you are a wise and intuitive being, so it seems odd not to listen to your inner voice? This discord often throws a spanner in the works when it comes to being yourself and acknowledging all that you are, as it’s hard to capture a glimpse of your essence when you tend to ignore your inner world. Yet, without a deeper correlation between all aspects of your being, how can you be your true self? It’s time to embrace all that you are and to learn to trust your intuition as you are a vibrant and wise soul; in many ways you are a being of intuition as you have no edges – your soul reaches beyond infinity. Let go of the doubt with tenderness as it’s time to believe in yourself and set yourself free…

Libra
♎

As you continue to gaze into the window of your soul, your realisation that happiness comes from a willingness to live your life as fully as possible has been something of a revelation for you. You have spent so much of your life trying to be the person you’ve felt you ought to be. Your beliefs and storylines have shaped the essence of your experience and there is a sense that you’ve felt an enormous pressure to do more, be more and achieve more, yet, all the while, longing for quiet, simplicity and being willing to accept the perfection of imperfection. The pressure you’ve placed on your own shoulders to ‘be better’ has mostly left you with a sense of lack, and this has undermined your creativity, passion, and spark, leaving you doubting your gifts and pushing away self-love and self-compassion as you’ve somehow felt ‘undeserving’. You are a complex soul and it’s impossible to untangle the complexity in a few lines here, but there is a need to let go of the ‘ought’s’ and ‘must’s’ now, changing your inner dialogue to one of more understanding and less judgement.

Of course, you have goals and aspirations, but don’t weaponise these as a way to beat yourself up for not doing more. It’s time to shift the focus away from what you haven’t done to towards the things you have, it’s time to shine the light of self-compassion and acknowledge that each day is ‘day one’ – what you did or didn’t do yesterday should not be a tool to judge yourself with. Let go a little, love yourself more and stop those ‘must’s’! You are a vibrant and beautiful soul, and it’s time to re-calibrate your inner scales away from self-judgement and towards self-love. Life isn’t just about what you achieve and the quest for perfection, it’s more about how you live and how you feel. It’s time for your soul to radiate brightly as you let your gifts flow free…

Scorpio
♏

As you continue to explore new ways to expand your consciousness and live your life more wholeheartedly, there is a sense that you have been listening more intently to the music of your soul. Everyone has music, we each have our own tune that plays throughout the story of our lives. Mostly, this music goes unnoticed, but occasionally we catch a glimmer when we are feeling vibrant and connected. However, there is a sense that you have been longing for a deeper connection to your inner world, so finding ways to listen to the music of your soul has been a way to capture your true essence and explore your creative, spiritual, and energetic edges. Of course, intuitively you know you have no edges as you are an infinite being, but there is a risk of drifting off into infinity and losing your focus, so this is more about getting to know your true self and acknowledging what you truly want in your life, as you seem ready now to explore new landscape and re-define your purpose and sense of direction.

It’s time to breathe deeply and let the music of your soul rise up within you filling your heart with creativity and passion. Although every song is unique, there are commonalities, so whilst it’s important to celebrate your uniqueness, it’s also important to acknowledge the interconnectedness of life. Whilst you are still aware of the gap between where you are and where you want to be, the more you find peace with the music of your soul, the more you will realise that life isn’t linear, it’s not only about getting from a to b, it’s about living fully, willingly, and finding ways to thrive despite the uncertainty. February looks set to shift your focus towards the difference between living and thriving as you step beyond the treadmill and seek out a more conscious way of being…

Sagittarius
♐

February looks set to be a month of opening up even more to living your life as wholeheartedly as possible. You are a vibrant and effervescent soul, over-brimming with ideas, possibilities, and enthusiasm; in essence you are like a bottle of fizz that’s been shaken a little and your energy is shooting off in many different directions. This might sound like fun, and it certainly brings you a plethora of different experiences in life, but it can also be exhausting as you rarely have time to pause to take a breath or re-centre. Whilst you certainly have the energy to live life on fast-forward, it seems important to discern between times to fizz and bubble, and times to be calmer and more reflective. Of course, you thrive on being busy and you love having a smorgasbord of pathways to discover at any one moment in time. However, maybe you need to ask yourself just how much of your ‘to do’ list is truly, absolutely necessary?

Less is more seems to be the focus now as you’ve been so used to being caught up in distractions and busy-ness that you’ve not taken any time to rest, reflect, and replenish. It’s rarely easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff when it comes to what’s important and what isn’t, but there’s a need to let go of clutter in your life as the free spirit within you wants the room to spread their wings and fly free. It’s hard to fly free with boxes and boxes of stuff (physical and metaphorical) being carried along. So, this is a time to let go, to know that creating balance will help you to navigate your path ahead. Whilst you will always fizz, bubble, and bounce, try to ensure that you are always using your phenomenal intuition and magnificent creativity as these will be your true guides…

Capricorn
♑

You have been on something of a journey over recent weeks, months (even years); you have been aware of changes occurring on every level of your being, but they have, on the whole, been nebulous and beyond understanding. However, despite this nebulousness, you have sensed the need to continue on this journey as the winds of change have been gathering momentum for a long time. You have spent a great deal of your life trying to be the person you’ve felt you’ve needed to be, trying to be everything to everyone around you and often sacrificing your own needs and dreams in the process. Although you have done this willingly, over time you have realised the cost of this as your heart and soul have felt a sense of lack and this has brought you a layer of melancholy, a sense of what could have been…

Whilst you are wise enough to know that you could never truly know what could have been, intuitively you know that this nebulous shift is a result of you making some conscious changes when it comes to drawing boundaries, honouring your own needs, and listening to your intuition to guide you. You might not be one to upset the apple cart, but you also know the importance of listening to your inner world as this is the true source of happiness and joy. It’s therefore time to shift your focus towards living the best life possible, to shine the light of compassion within and to have the courage to explore unchartered terrain. It’s important to acknowledge that your dreams have never been lost, they’ve just been gathering dust as you’ve not had the time, or focus, to bring them to life. Until now! Although still nebulous, the winds of change have brought some momentum and courage, so pull back the curtains, grab the duster and let your dreams shine brightly once again…

Aquarius
♒

As you continue to ponder and reflect on the life you’ve lived, the life you’re living and the life you’d like to live, there is a sense that you have made some big discoveries, connecting more consciously to the meaning of life, and gaining a clearer connection to your true essence. You have spent a great deal of time trying to make sense of life, your path, and your purpose, and although you are a visionary, there is a sense that your focus has often been on the gap between where you are and where you’d like to be. Whilst this is natural, it has often put you under immense pressure as you’ve felt scattered in many different directions at the same time making it hard for you to focus. As a result, you’ve sometimes felt lost, misunderstood, and overwhelmed with your gifts as you’ve not been able to work out how best to flourish and thrive.

In addition, there have always been things to see, do, be and achieve, and although you are naturally inquisitive, this has often brought you further confusion and left you in a spin. Yet, despite this confusion, deep within the core of your being, you have always had a sense of the greater purpose of your life; it’s been woolly and nebulous at times, but you’ve always felt the inklings of ‘something more’ and it’s time to turn towards this more wholeheartedly now in order to seek out a clearer sense of direction. You are nearing a new chapter, a time to shed some of the clutter on all levels of your life, and a time to think about what you truly want. What makes you happy? What energises you? What depletes you? Take some time to look at the bigger picture and the finer details of your life and let your intuition lead the way…

Pisces
♓

You have spent a great deal of your life trying to make sense as to why things are the way they are. You have explored the world within you and gazed deeply into your heart and soul as you’ve opened up to your strengths and gifts. This hasn’t been easy for you as you often see yourself as a passive force that drifts along with the currents of other people’s lives. However, intuitively you know that this perspective isn’t an accurate reflection of your exceptional wisdom, courage, and power, but it’s somehow easier to defer to the default setting of ‘drifting’ as it makes for an easier life! Or does it? More recently you have found yourself on new terrain as you have discovered more about yourself and your gifts than ever before, making it hard to deny or resist your phenomenal presence. This has left you in something of a conundrum as intuitively you know that true balance and joy comes from embracing your gifts, so denying them is denying yourself an opportunity for a more enriching life.

It seems important to ask yourself why you’re holding back from exploring unchartered terrain and embracing a new way of living and being. You are a vibrant, creative, and intuitive soul, your inner light shines brightly and just about every cell of your being is generous, loving, and compassionate. February looks set to invite you to begin the process of shedding the load of misplaced self-beliefs and to instead embrace your true essence as you contemplate what you truly want from your life. Such a process takes courage and vision, but you’re ready now to set yourself free in order to find more balance, harmony, and joy in every nook and cranny of your soul. As you cross this new threshold, take some time out to rest as this will help to re-ignite your passion and creativity as you redefine your life from the inside, out.

November 2023 Astrology Forecast

November 2023 Astrology Forecast

By Sarah Jane Grace

Posted on November 3, 2023
 

 

After a storm, when the rain stops and the winds ease, but before the birds start singing once again, there is a brief moment in time where everything seems to stand still. It’s a bit like the moment in-between an in breath and an out breath, where we are doing neither one nor the other. It doesn’t last long, and so few ever notice it, but it has the power to transport us into a different dimension of time and space, as the more we focus on the moment, the more it seems to expand into our hearts and souls.

It’s so easy to become caught up in the 24/7 busy-ness of modern life and this can leave us feeling disconnected and isolated from the magic of the world we live in. Living behind the closed curtains of life helps us to keep on keeping on, but it stops us from living spiritually, intuitively and creatively. We often find we just don’t have the time or energy to even notice these moments, let alone consciously step into them. Yet, we need this connection, otherwise we lose sight of the bigger picture, as well as ourselves along the way.

It therefore seems more important than ever to take the time to notice where we are and to pay attention. I had the joy of walking (well, rolling!) through an ancient yew tree grove. As I sat there, I started to see beyond the obvious and saw the silver threads of light flowing out of me up into the tree above. This ancient yew was cleansing me, and like reverse rain, the light was flowing upwards leaving me feeling lighter and brighter. I felt at one with the tree, and in that brief moment, I connected to the tree, offering healing and love in process. It made me realise that I want to live my life with all of my nature, not just a part of it. Yet, for most people walking through the yews, it was a walk, nothing more.

It’s so important to connect to the pauses and to truly see the magic of the world we live in, from the birdsong, the spider weaving a magical web, to the stars in the night sky. It’s our willingness to connect to this bigger picture that has the power to bring us hope, unity and love.

It’s time for each of us to choose to live life more wholeheartedly and to find connection in the things that unite us rather than focusing on the things that divide us. We are each unique individuals, there is no ‘one size fits all’, never will be. So, celebrate that individuality and find joy in the kaleidoscope of uniqueness that we live in.

It seems we are once again experiencing something of a ‘collision of moment’s’, a time where it feels like everything is happening at the same time and it can be hard to take a breath. It’s as though we are somewhere in-between where we were and where we’re going, both individually and collectively. We can feel as though we are in both places at the same time, but some feel as though they are in neither. It’s a confusing cacophony of thoughts, experiences and shifts, and this collision of moments seems more powerful than before, many layers of emotion are being peeled away including pain, grief, and anger. This is a painful yet cathartic process, but also deeply challenging for many as the lifelong habit of repressing difficult emotions can lead to pressure building. Intuitively we know we need to go with the process, but it’s understandable to see why so many try to resist. Yet, in the long run, resistance doesn’t work, so we can end up pushing against the currents, feeling isolated and alone.

There are so many of us feeling lost, so many seeking love, compassion, and connection. It’s therefore so important that we each try to reach out to others and to find ways to unify and unite. Although the cracks and division are all around, there are still threads that connect, we just have to consciously choose to look for them and become one with them.

It would be understandable to seek out retreat from the chaos, but as is so often the case, the only real way is through. Whilst we live in confusing times, it is a part of our story, and it has the power to shape and transform our lives.

So, we each need to be a conscious part of this journey, to connect to those in-between moments, the spaces within spaces in order to find wisdom, courage and compassion.

For now, and as always, I wish you all kinds of wonderful.

With love,

Sarah-Jane

Aries
♈

As you continue the process of letting go on all levels of your life, there is a sense that you are re-shaping and re-defining your sense of self at the same time. As a result, you are beginning to understand yourself, and your motivations, on a much deeper level and you are realising just how much of your life is a repeating pattern formed of outdated beliefs and cycles. Of course, you’re human, and it’s human nature to follow familiar paths, but you seem ready now to break free from the old in order to begin a new chapter in your life. It can be hard to step beyond habits and cycles, particularly when they’re not clear or well-defined, but intuitively you have a good sense as to what you need to do as you no longer want to feel stuck and tethered. You have reached a stage of your life when being true to yourself is deeply important, as you want to focus on your true priorities (your ‘I really want and need this’ list!) and explore your inner world.

Truth, creativity, and spirituality all take centre stage throughout November as you find new ways to let your compassion and spark flow freely and without reservation. It’s time to express your exuberance and energy with self-belief as you are no longer prepared to spend time simply keeping on, keeping on. Whilst there will inevitably be things to do that don’t fill you with joy, as life admin is unavoidable, but when you step back to look at the bigger picture, you will start to find context to the routine, and see beyond to the path of joy. Intuitively you know it’s time to prioritise your own needs more and to acknowledge that life isn’t just about what you do for others, it’s also about living your very best life. You matter; believe this now and set yourself free…

Taurus
♉

As you continue to go through a chapter of powerful awakening, there is a sense that you are beginning to feel a deeper connection to your heart and soul. You spend so much of your time trying to be everything to everyone else and this can leave you feeling drained and depleted in so many ways. Although you are a generous and giving soul, there sometimes needs to be more of a two-way flow, and whilst it’s not about ‘giving to receive’, there are some around you who simply ‘take, take and take a bit more’. Of course, ultimately it’s your choice as to whether you continue with this, but you seem ready to stand more firmly in your own power in order to re-establish your boundaries and your priorities.

You have spent so much of your life bending and flexing to accommodate the needs, wishes and whims of others, but unless you acknowledge your own needs and dreams, this process is unlikely to ever be deeply fulfilling for you. In other words, there has to be balance, and this sometimes has to come from you standing firm and say ‘No!’ if needed. You are a feisty earthy soul, and your strength is phenomenal, so this should be a walk in the park for you, but there is a sense that your connection to your inner power has faded away over the years as you have given so much to so many, but this connection isn’t lost, so shine a light within and consciously choose to seek out more balance in your life. It’s time to listen to your intuition more, to acknowledge your gifts and to realise that you matter. It’s so easy to get lost in the daily distractions of life, but try to take some time out over the weeks ahead to re-connect to your heart and soul…

Gemini
♊

Finding new ways to thrive and flourish continues to take centre stage throughout November as your willingness to gaze deeply within has enabled you to find more clarity, insight and understanding in connection to the choices you make and the paths you walk. You have spent so much of your life trying to be the person you’ve felt you ought to be, and it is only more recently that you have found joy in being the person you really are. On some level, everyone tries to fit in as it’s human nature to want to be a part of ‘normal’, yet intuitively you know that there is no such thing as normal, and it’s being unique that ultimately brings you the capacity for true joy in life. Yet, the way of individuality is often a challenging one as it means walking an unfamiliar path and consciously choosing to be ‘different’. However, no two souls are alike, so in truth, we are all ‘different’. It therefore seems important to re-frame how you see your individuality and to focus on the threads that bring connection and commonality, rather than on the aspects that keep you ‘separate’ from the masses.

Yes, you are unique, but there is also an innate need to belong, and there is room for being unique in belonging – you just have to connect to your phenomenal creativity to realise this and to find your own way to joy. So, this is a time of connection as you discover a new pathway to being you; try to stop over-thinking and over-analysing so much, accept that there won’t always be answers to the questions you have in life, and seek out connection, unity and belonging, as it seems important now for you to find peace on all levels of your life. You are a vibrant soul and it’s time to shine…

Cancer
♋

As the winds of change continue to gather momentum, it seems that you are beginning to think more deeply as to what you truly want in life. For a long time now, you have been running on the hamster wheel, keeping on keeping on, and trying not to think too deeply about the bigger picture. It’s not that you’ve been actively ignoring the bigger picture, but it’s just been easier not to engage with it too much as your dreams and priorities often feel like an indulgence that you simply don’t have time for. This might sound like an exaggeration, but when you close your eyes and connect to your dreams, you can sense just how much you have lost touch with your creativity and energy. Your inner twinkle is still sparkling, you just have to turn towards it rather than keeping your back to it. In essence, it seems that you spend so much of your time keeping on keeping on because that’s how you get from a to b, that you have stopped thinking about how to get from a to be (being your true self).

At the end of the day, the choice is yours as to how you live your life, but there is a sense that your soul is yearning for more space and freedom to explore, meander and create. Without even realising it, you seem to have grown so used to the hamster wheel that your time, energy, and focus is on turning the wheel, rather than stepping off, finding your feet, and taking a big, deep breath of life. Life is for living; it’s for expanding your boundaries and seeking out new terrain on all levels of your being. Let your inner light shine brightly in order to illuminate your strength, courage, and vibrancy as this is your time to turn towards what you truly want in life…

Leo
♌

As you continue to connect to the quiet spaces within your heart and soul, there is a sense that you are realising just how much of your life has been shaped by ought’s, must’s and should’s. Of course, this could be said for most souls, but there is a sense that you have given so much of yourself that you have lost sight of your true strength and resolve. It’s within these quiet spaces where insight and illumination reside as they can show you the path to living a richer, more fulfilling life. Whilst there will always be things to do, people to see and places to go, there is a need for this to be more on your own terms now. Although you are a fiery, creative, and passionate soul, you seem so easily caught up in the currents of other people’s lives. This is understandable given your fluidity, but puzzling given your strength and fire. It seems you have become weighed down trying to be everything to everyone, but ignoring your own needs at the same time.

Your tendency to give so much is admirable, but you already know the importance of giving to yourself as well. Intuitively you know this, but sometimes a gentle nudge in the ribs acts as a reminder! It’s time to make some changes and to let those quiet spaces within bring you both insight and wisdom as to how to re-balance all areas of your life. It’s time to acknowledge that it’s possible to re-shape and re-define your life in order to live more in accordance with your true essence. The more you re-connect to your passion, creativity and inspiration, the more you will realise the need to step beyond those ought’s and must’s, as you need more freedom now as you stop focusing on where you feel you need to be and instead focus wholeheartedly on where you are…

Virgo
♍

Life is shaped by a series of moments that are often random, incongruent, and seemingly unconnected. You are gifted in being able to see both the finer details and the bigger picture in life, so you can often see these moments as both individual and collective, but you can also see the threads that weave in and out, connecting random moments and highlighting patterns and beliefs. In essence, you have the ability to see the tapestry of life from every angle. This is quite a gift, but it can also feel overwhelming at times as it’s not always clear if you are looking at the finer details or the bigger picture, as the bigger picture always has a bigger picture as it’s a part of the infinity of time and space. However, when you take a deep breath and bring your attention to the present moment, the overwhelm fades away bringing you both insight and wisdom.

There are moments in your life that have been extraordinary and special, there are some moments you try hard to forget, but there are many many more that sit in the bracket of ‘mundane’. Of course, this is the case for most people, but it seems important for you to acknowledge this as it is often these mundane moments that act as foundations, helping you to weave your creativity and wisdom into new avenues and pathways to explore. So, although the mundane often feels tedious, it also has the power to bring you context and insight, as it allows you to find distinctions between the routine and the extraordinary, helping you to open up to embrace even more ‘extraordinary’ into your life. November looks set to be a month for you to step back a little in order to contemplate your true priorities and reflect on your dreams as you re-shape and re-define your life from the inside, out…

Libra
♎

November looks set to be a month for exploring the pauses in your life: those spaces within spaces where you are in-between an in breath and an out breath, where you are doing neither one nor the other. Of course, most of the time you’re not even aware of these pauses, but they have the potential to bring you important insights and wisdom. It is hard to captivate the true power of these spaces, as it’s so nebulous and hard to define, yet the silent gaps in the buzz and throng of modern life allow reflection, beauty, and creativity to flow. In a way, this is similar to present moment awareness, like watching the setting sun or seeing a bird soaring in the thermals. Yet, it goes deeper than this, as the more conscious you are of the spaces, the more you can tune into them and regain your balance and perspective. Life often feels as though it is moving at a million miles an hour, your head moves even faster in a cacophony of thoughts.

Living life in the fast lane can leave you feeling out of balance, but it also has the potential to highlight the pauses and inspire you to breathe more deeply into life. When you consciously step into a pause, your creativity ignites and your ability to think outside of the box magnifies. In short, the more you focus on the pauses, the more you will find ways to join them up and expand them, enabling you to channel your energy towards your dreams and priorities. It’s easy to get caught up in the busy-ness of life, but the spaces will help you to focus and re-align your heart and soul. This is a time to be creative and to find the self-belief to live your very best life. Take a deep breath and let your gifts flow free…

Scorpio
♏

Cultivating self-belief and stepping beyond the busy-ness of everyday distractions both continue to take centre stage throughout November. You have spent a great deal of time listening to the inner critic that constantly whispers in your ear leaving you feeling as though you have no choice but to live your life in accordance to the wants, needs and whims of others. At the same time, your inner critic creates self-doubt when it comes to acknowledging your dreams and expressing your true essence. There are many reasons your inner critic acts this way, and whilst it can feel frustrating, it’s important to know that your critic is only trying to help and support you. Of course, this conditioning started many years ago, so it seems time to turn towards your inner critic with love and to reach out, showing your inner critic that there is a new way to live. Yes, this carries risk, but everything in life is uncertain. So, it’s time for you to tap into your courage and creativity in order to step onto a new path in life. Try not to fight your inner critic, instead take their hand, and reassure them, let them know that you are stronger when all of the different facets of your being come together as one.

As November progresses, it’s time to let go of the everyday distractions of things to do, people to see and places to go and instead start to focus on the things that are truly important. It’s time to realise that your ‘to do’ list is mostly comprised of things that don’t really matter that much: some are there out of habit, and some seem to belong to others. At the same time, some are present because it’s easier to have these as goals rather than taking a chance on reaching towards your dreams. Believe in yourself and let your intuition guide you forwards…

Sagittarius
♐

You have always been something of an adventurer in life, seeking out the paths less travelled and finding joy in the nooks and crannies of life. In order to flourish and thrive, you need variety, spontaneity, and an opportunity for growth, as these help to give you a sense of purpose. Yet, whilst this certainly resonates on many levels, there is a sense that when it actually comes to stepping into unchartered terrain, you are quite cautious and reserved. Your heart and soul yearn for freedom, but your head errs on the side of caution as you doubt yourself and wonder if you have ‘what it takes’ to truly be free. So, in many ways this is something of an internal struggle, but it obviously impacts all areas of your life as you hold back from your vibrant, passionate, and creative essence, preferring to keep it under wraps rather than shining brightly. Why? You are gifted and talented, and you have built up a wealth of knowledge and wisdom over the years allowing you to navigate the inevitable twists and turns in life with courage and skill.

It seems time to find a way to let your inner adventurer and freedom seeker have some room to breathe more deeply into life as to resist this side of you diminishes your essence. Intuitively you know you need to let your gifts flow freely and whilst life has offered you more than your fair share of challenges, try not to let this hold you back from grabbing hold of the moment and making the most of now. Life isn’t a straight path, it meanders and twists, potholes and blind corners are scattered along the way, along with the odd fallen tree, dead end and flock of sheep blocking the road. In other words, live for now; embrace the moment to be your true self. It’s time to live as wholeheartedly as possible…

Capricorn
♑

As you continue to find ways to ride the ebb and flow of life, there is a sense that you have gained a great deal of wisdom and insight when it comes to the choices you make and why you make them. You love to be the person others turn to, you thrive when supporting those around you and even though there are times when you feel as though you’re not sure where you end and where others begin, this doesn’t stop you from giving, giving, and then giving a bit more. It’s quite hard to articulate, but there is a need deep within you that yearns for an opportunity to turn your attention within for a while in order to re-connect to your own needs and your truth. Truth comes in many shapes and sizes, and truth is unique to each individual as we each experience life differently. However, over time, your sense of truth and sense of self has faded as you have given so much of yourself to others.

You intuitively know that life isn’t just about giving to others, it’s also about giving to yourself as well. You are a wonderful, magical, and intuitive soul, and you are deeply aware of the multi-layered and multi-faceted nature of existence. It’s time to start re-connecting to your inner world and stepping beyond the ‘keeping on keeping on’ of everyday life in order to acknowledge your creativity, intuition, and innovation. You are a wise being and your intuition knows no boundaries, so why not use these more? Why not turn within and acknowledge your own needs in order to re-align how you live your life? This can help you to make sense as to why you make the choices you make, and it will also help you to listen to your soul as it guides you forwards towards a new and exciting chapter in life…

Aquarius
♒

You have spent a great deal of your life trying to seek out insight and wisdom, trying to understand why things are the way they are. You are a deep thinker, and your consciousness is expansive, so your questioning often goes further and deeper than most would ever comprehend. As a result, you often gain a unique perspective which shapes and defines all aspects of your life. Of course, you have spent a great deal of time trying to make sense of the different facets of your being and trying to unravel any inner knots you have discovered along the way. There is a part of you that is on an almost constant mission to seek out understanding and although this can be illuminating, it can also at times be tiring as you never truly switch off. Sometimes it’s within the quiet moments where inspiration and intuition reside, sometimes it’s the ‘not looking’ that brings you answers. This isn’t to say that you should change how you live your life, it’s just a nudge to remind you of the power of stillness and of the need to not push quite so hard.

Life doesn’t have to be a constant quest for forward movement; it can also involve pauses and opportunities for reflection. Although you yearn to keep learning, try to find the wisdom in letting go a little, and seeking out the magic of ‘not doing’. See these moments as a chance to re-align and review your path ahead as you are constantly changing and evolving so it makes sense that your destination changes as well. It’s time to shift your focus slightly as you think about the bigger picture of your life; you are nearing an important crossroads, so you need to be clear about where you are heading and why. Life isn’t just about chasing rainbows, sometimes the real joy comes from becoming the rainbow…

Pisces
♓

There are times in your life when you feel as though you are in a little wooden boat being carried along with the currents of life. Yet, at the same time, you can also feel as though you are in a little wooden boat, fully stocked with supplies and anchored close to the shore. The boat that drifts represents how you often perceive yourself – being carried along by the currents of other people’s lives. The anchored boat is more of a reflection of your free spirit and creativity, anchored because you so often feel as though you are unable to be your true self. These two images represent a powerful dichotomy in your life, a sense of powerlessness and drift, and a sense of repression and being tethered. In some ways you know you can’t be doing both, but intuitively you know that it’s perfectly possible to do both as this is your lived experience! However, your perception matters as you often feel as though you drift along even though you create the currents, and you frequently feel anchored and unable to explore pastures new even though you are in the boat and can lift the anchor anytime you choose.

Of course, this little boat represents the hopes and dreams that are still waiting to be acknowledged. Even though you keep the boat fully stocked with supplies, unless you up-anchor, the boat will continue to represent ‘what could be’ rather than ‘what is’. In essence, it seems time for you to make some important choices, to realise that you are in the driving seat of your life and rather than feeling powerless and tethered, acknowledge that you are only tethered (anchored) because you choose to be. The boat is calling to your heart and soul to discover a new way of living and being. Stand in your power and have the courage to explore pastures new.
