The Year Ahead

Forecast for August 2009 to August 2010


The Sun in harmonious aspect to the Moon in your Solar Return chart is a pleasant aspect, suggesting that your domestic and career needs are not in competition with one another this year. Your inner needs tend to be mirrored by external events, and vice versa. You are likely to be on top of your game this year for the most part, and positive connections with others can be made fairly easily. A comfortable level of personal popularity helps keep conflict to a minimum. With the ability to handle your emotions successfully, there will be less stress on both your mind and body. Your self-confidence and positive attitude will reward you!

The Sun trines Pluto in your Solar Return chart again this year. You display more self-confidence when it comes to achieving your goals and going after what you want. Others are bound to recognize your leadership skills and talents, or, at the very least, your potential. You are motivated to get to the bottom of matters. You might find that you become more goal-oriented, as superficial goals no longer satisfy you. You want your life path and your objectives to reflect what you’re really about, and you are likely to rid yourself of unsatisfying goals this year. You benefit from being more decisive than usual, and your ability to concentrate and focus help you to achieve what you set out to do. A new project or goal begun this year has a good chance of being successful and long-lasting.

Self-confidence and action are highlighted in the year ahead, with the Sun sextile Mars in your Solar Return. Your desire nature is strong, and increased physical activity, including sexual, is likely. Independent work is favored. Competitive activities may also thrive this year. With Mars trine Neptune, you are more inclined to act upon your intuition, your sexual fantasies may be especially strong, and your creative impulses are potent. This aspect helps to soften your disposition, smoothing out some of the tension in your life. If you are an artist, this could be an especially inspired, imaginative, and productive year. Pay attention to your gut feelings, which will, more often than not, give you valuable information. If you are involved in sales, you will be able to tune into your client's inner desires and motivations.

However, with Mars square Uranus, some ups and downs in the year ahead are likely due to erratic energy, rebellious feelings, or outside interference. This can also be a time when you tend to resist others and challenge them if they are trying to hold you back. If you aren't too rash or impulsive, you might be able to free yourself from restrictive circumstances. You could also have more courage than usual to do things that break the routine, and confrontations engaged in this year could clear the air and help you to move forward.

Venus harmonizes with Mercury in your Solar Return chart, adding charm to the way you present your ideas this year, certainly helping to smooth over differences in your personal relationships. This influence also helps you to express yourself more creatively, and can bring mentally stimulating friendships into your life. The lines of communication are open in personal relationships, and you're bound to enjoy exchanging ideas with friends and romantic partners this year.

Mercury is square Mars and Pluto, and opposite Uranus, and your thinking (as well as speech) can run ahead of yourself at times! This can translate to having too many ideas to implement, or expressing yourself too hastily. Outside interferences with your projects is another possibility. It will be necessary to ground yourself from time to time, and make certain that your goals are realistic and doable. Your senses are stimulated, and you could have sudden flashes of insight or fresh new ideas. You may be a little scatter-brained under this influence, and you could find it challenging to deal with routine matters or monotonous tasks. Learning new things is your passion this year--not recycling old ideas or performing repetitive processes.

Venus-Uranus is a favorable influence for social meetings and events, and for situations that call for treating others with equality and respect. You may lose your fear of taking risks at this time, and happily embrace all that is new, unusual, and out-of-the-ordinary with regards to romantic involvements as well as financial undertakings. You are ready to experiment, but not necessarily ready to commit. This could be a good year for financial undertakings involving electronics, technology, the internet, metaphysics, and the arts, as well as group activities. You have a taste for the offbeat this year, and this energy can bring sudden or unexpected romance into your life, perhaps a scenario that feels like love at first sight. Childbirth is sometimes associated with this aspect. Venus joining with the South Node of the Moon in your Solar Return chart suggests that you're also liable to review relationships to see if they are contributing or hindering your personal growth, and/or dealing with past loves.

Mercury trine the Moon's North Node suggests making contact through learning, communicating, and mental pursuits. It suggests an intellectually stimulating year in which the exchange of ideas with others figures prominently.

Jupiter conjunct Chiron and Neptune in your Solar Return chart suggests that idealistic and humanitarian goals or impulses have more significance in your life this year. You may experience an increased need for greater understanding, wisdom, and awareness, as well as increased interest in the healing arts and holistic health this year. It may be a time during which you reconsider or revamp your personal belief system. Everyday, ordinary life may not always satisfy, as you hunger for a more idealistic life.

You are likely to enjoy many opportunities to learn about yourself and your relationship needs, as well as to expand your horizons, through contact with others. New and mentally stimulating friendships are in your forecast. An enterprising spirit is with you, although a few reality tests are likely. If you can focus your attention on more important or productive endeavors instead of juggling too many ideas and projects than you can manage efficiently, you will be able to accomplish much. Choose your projects wisely, as your energy levels may be erratic.


2009 is a Number Seven year for you. Ruled by Neptune. This is a year of preparation, chance, and refinement. It is not a time of dramatic changes. Instead, it's a year when reflection on the past is helpful, and when refinements to your life path should be made. It's a good year to study and analyze. Unexpected twists to your life story and "chance" meetings are probable. Advice - take stock of your life in order to prepare for more exciting years to come, examine the past and plan for the future, get in touch with your deepest needs and uncover your personal power, don't strain yourself or actively try to expand.

2010 will be a Number Eight year for you. Ruled by Saturn. This is a year of power and accomplishment. Actively seeking to expand, taking educated risks, and moving forward are highlighted. This is a year of opportunity, particularly in the material and business world, and opportunities need to be seized. It's generally not a year to find a new love partner, simply because the focus is on the material world and your place in the world. This is a problem-solving year in which you can expect real, tangible results. Advice - take action, plan ahead, seize opportunities.

Tuesday, June 16, 2009

i am counting on something futile thats a daydream lengths beyond what i deserve
why i keep coming back when things are nt 100% is becuase i dont know what else to count on.
i need to broaden expand and circulate, but one person is more than everything. everything right now is hollow excess. i want solid, basic. this might be the first letdowns in a series of letdowns.

personal manifesto

dont waste imagination if I ever want to preserve My sense of self or to prevent jadedness
remember what I love and always discover new things to love
dont force Myself into things, what makes Me happy comes to me at first so that at other times, I can come to it
find new places to be Myself
having what I want is not the same as being what I want
I am fully capable and better at a lot of things than someone else
and these things are good and will help Me become happy

all of a sudden its the summer time

i cant stop listening to telekinesis!

and that tune gets me thunkin about some summer planz

there are two roads open for me:

1) attend risd pre-college 2009 to major in printmaking
most all know this is a dream i've had since i was maybe 11 or 12, but it probably won't happen this year. obviously i have no idea what the application reviewers will decide, but because of weird financial situations in my family i probably won't be able to get a scholarship, thus go to the east coast. but thats okay because

2) i can do a lot of things in seattle this summer
i realized theres a window between the time i'm a senior and freshman in college where finally things open up work-wise but theres still not as much pressure to make real money, so i can explore things more freeeeeeeeleeeee...
this is a list of things i plan to accomplish
take printmaking classes at pratt to make up for what i would get at risd
contact some dessert caterers to work for
find a design internship
hike a lot (mt ranier on my birthday)
my birthday: it will last an entire week, last week of summer
take astrology classes
go to capitol hill block party (sonic youth)
camping
visit kansas city for the first time in 2 years?
attend nike tennis camp which is now at seattle u
road trip with friends
road trip with family
swim in the lake, every week
screenprint, maybe make my own line of something
start my collection of cupcake liners that my mom and i are going to develop and sell to retailers and bakeries...seriously

so many options
i almost want to stay home now. i'll get risd next year. and the next four years after that.

i had a feeling this was present but didn't do its job

Daily Planetary Overview
Today, Mercury conjunct Mars will bring a quick mind and the ability to make your point with impressive clarity. Practicality and the ability to realize your plans will allow you to get things done well. Give constructive criticism.

Your Horoscope - Today, January 27, 2009
It might take you an extra few minutes to get out of bed today, Dylan, but when you do, it will be worth it. You will find that the more honest you have been with people, the more payoffs you will see today. Dependability and trustworthiness are key issues that you might find yourself focusing on.

7

i can't be inspired alone. my creativity has its limits because in the dull moments of boredom when no ones there, what am i doing? i'm never doing anything not assigned. i don't have spontaneity alone.
if anyone, you ever questioned my sincerity in trying to figure things out, if you ever thought that i was trying to show someone something, why i share, its because i can't do that stuff alone. or prove it to myself alone. i dont need commentary, but to have something hanging in the air out of my stomach.
back to everything else: i keep waiting to go somewhere else to make myself feel more comfortable but really i'm waiting for someone. i need an other. not just one, a few, back to where i thought i'd be when i started everything.
this is a soft individual realization which is usually not what happens, usually what happens is a passionate rage and squeeze words in where they sit next to each other screaming and purple but this only is complete to i, because you, will think this is about you. its about no one but i, and eyes.

economic disaster survival plan 1.0

build a treehouse in the redwoods with a system of solar powered water purification and knowledge of foraging through california woodlands for nuts berries etc. i would have to wean myself off of animal protein and multivitamins so i would see if soy could grow in northern ca. bring instruments because it will sound something like pet sounds and harvest, not together, but for the high and flat times respectivley. there will have to be a tambourine repair kit that will be in our treehouse building toolbox. i'll import some tea plants before we leave so we'll always have some assam. your pets can come but they'll assimilate easily because they're barely domesticated anyway. i think some electricity will be neccessary and since our treehouse will be closer to the surface of sunlight than the ground, we'll install a solar panel which will provide little vents of heat underneath the floorboards and a lighted ground pathway at night. what we'll do during the day is mostly foraging, which will be healthy for our bodies because exercise and daily work will go hand in hand. this is only version 1.0 so the logistics will come later.
