Aquarius ~ April 2014

SUN IN TAURUS–TIME TO FOCUS ON FINANCES

This is the time to focus on finances. With the current state of the U. S. and global economic situation we are heading into more challenging times. We have survived the past 5 years of monetary contraction with some tepid signs of moving beyond the longest recession since World War II. Even though there are some positive signs of sustainable recovery we are about to enter into another and deeper phase of contraction. We should each get our financial house in order to the best of our ability. That means reducing monthly overhead or expenses and reduce your debt as much as possible. Put as much money into savings as you can. But not in the stock market. It is about at the top and another severe stock market correction is coming. Try to secure and expand your income if possible.

Locally here at Tahoe we have had a rough economic winter. With very little snow the ski resorts and associated tourist businesses have struggled to make it. This has had an effect on the overall community. Tahoe will always be a significant resort destination. It has so many unique qualities and is close to major urban centers. But we need to be more creative and diversify our economy. There has been tremendous creative expression here in the past and there will be more in the future.

The Sun enters Taurus this month on April 19. This fixed earth sign is that which manifests the energy and consciousness of creating wealth and abundance. The Bull is the symbol of fertility and rules money. This is the time to plant the seeds of new creative financial and monetary ideas That will reach fruition and harvest in the summer and fall.

Aquarius ( January 19-February 19 ) You feel a significant creative impulse now that is important for you to give expression to. There is a significant amount of personal growth that you have achieved and you are ready to break through to a new level of life expression. People will sense the new power that you have. Not everyone will react positively.
