Imagine my surprise after returning home from a week in paradise, that I immediately fell into a depression that made it almost impossible for me to get out of bed. At first I thought it was jet lag, which certainly did contribute to my feeling out of sorts. But it was also an awareness of what I was coming back to; reminiscing about the past and relationships gone amiss got me feeling extra low. I then went into detective mode investigating the not so pretty parts of me (thank you Mercury Retrograde), and everything that surfaced was connected to a rather stark reality I experienced while traveling that stemmed around my desperate attempts at living fearlessly from the heart.
Now I am overcome by an immediate urge to recommit to my path and purpose, which, interestingly enough, has expanded. I reckon that if I can live my soul’s desires, life would be more gratifying despite hardship. It’s as if I’ve been reacquainted with my personal journey after a long hiatus even though I never realized we had become estranged, and little did I know the trees and forests I’d have to cut through in order to get back on track! Thankfully it’s all starting to look familiar, only this time with more clarity and new information revealed. This has led to profound breakthrough once again – one hell of a breakthrough at that!
Many messages came to me during this process. One message was that of acceptance and the other was that of compassion. After some back and forth, I reasoned that the only thing left to do involved trimming all the excess. Of course, there are those things that may take some time to release (I’m only human!). But I can’t help but think that in doing so I will have successfully bridged the gap between my past and my future, which would allow me to live more fully in the present.
Herein lies the main theme of this cosmic unfolding in the week ahead: let go of that which keeps you from your destiny. If you can drop the ego, some excuses here and there, and a few self-sabotaging traits, you may be pleased to find that what’s on the other side has been waiting for you all along. This is something I look forward to in the coming weeks; this is something you should look forward to as well.

It may surprise you to realize you had gotten of track for a minute there. But it’s understandable considering the cosmic chaos we’ve been experiencing over these past few weeks.

Gemini: You have a new understanding of who you are and how you want to share your gifts. But in order to do so, you’ll have to overcome certain fears and doubts that tend to skew your judgment of self. You are more than capable in all that you have to offer, dear Twins. If only you could see what others see, it might make you feel more comfortable expressing your authenticity. By all means, acknowledge where you may fall short on confidence. But don’t turn this into yet another excuse.

Cancer: With all the energy that’s currently making you feel extra high, there are a number of items that still require your attention – namely your career, family and relationships. Hopefully you’ve been able to take stock of what’s important to you, prioritizing your life as a result. I’d advise against the easy route, passively avoiding all that must be tended to in order to keep the peace. Jupiter is in your sign for just one more week. You’d be wise to make the most use of its blessings. We’re halfway through 2014, which means it’s time for a MID-YEAR REVIEW. My special for July has been announced.

This begs the need for extra rest and relaxation as you attempt to navigate all that is beginning to bubble to the surface. You’re ready to break open in so many life areas where you feel you’ve cheated yourself, and only your faith and emotional strength will see you through this process. Thankfully, there are blessings on the other side of this breakthrough. All you have to do is gently make your way to the other side.

Virgo: You know that your time has come, Virgo. Delays are a thing of the past; only doing will bring progress. No more waffling. No more working out the details (you can’t predict everything!). No more waiting for the right timing, and for heaven’s sake, no more excuses! How do you expect the Universe to reward your efforts if you don’t put anything in motion? Sometimes preparation looks more like procrastination for you Virgins. Do us all a favor please, and quit pussyfooting around. We’re halfway through 2014, which means it’s time for a MID-YEAR REVIEW.

Libra: Unfortunately Libra, I have less sympathy for you this week. Or maybe it’s not unfortunate, and you ought to get over this “woe is me” attitude. If you’re not yet hip to why events seems so disjointed, it’s because you are refusing to implement changes that dictate the course of your life. You won’t always get it right, and as you try, you will inevitably piss somebody off. Others may not be pleased, but at least you’d be calling the shots. Why not go after what you want on your terms.

Scorpio: A sense of belonging has never been so important to you as it is now. In your attempts to navigate a changing schedule and lifestyle, you might as well try to identify those who can be of assistance because they, too, are experiencing similar life events that dictate a new way of living. You don’t have to be so focused on what may seem like a dim reality, Scorpio. That just makes matters worse and prevents growth. Instead, join a new club or team that might uplift your spirits.

Sagittarius: Life is about to expand for you even further Sagittarius, and just as things are starting to look up! That’s not to say you were feeling negative about important changes in your life. But it is to say that for a moment, you lost sight of the big picture – which is about to get even bigger! As long as you can stay present and remember all that is important to you, you’ll fare well this week and the weeks to come. You’re known for your optimism – why not use it for your personal benefit. We’re halfway through 2014, which means it’s time for a MID-YEAR REVIEW. My special for July has been announced. Visit www.randomnessofrudy.com for more details!
Capricorn: Life has been good, Capricorn. At least, better than you can remember. Your vitality has increased courtesy of time spent with significant others. Meanwhile, work matters are beginning to even out granting you more time to focus on family planning and/or home changes. This week sees much more of such positive developments, and I’m happy to report that by the corresponding Full Moon in your sign on Saturday, you will feel all the more liberated from doubts and insecurities.

Aquarius: What’s that you say? You’re feeling giddy these days? Well, the truth is, we all are! But this is new for you, as Aquarius isn’t known to be childlike and playful; you’re too cool for that. But the jig is up – you’re in the mood for love and romance with significant partners! It’s OK if you want to dote and cling to those close this week, especially if you can balance this with your busy schedule, tasks and other responsibilities. Everyone needs a break from the seriousness of life, including you. We’re halfway through 2014, which means it’s time for a MID-YEAR REVIEW. My special for July has been announced.

Pisces: How and where you fit in has always been confusing, even an underlying fear. You know that you’re different, and there’s a fear that others won’t accept you. On the one hand, who cares! On the other hand, be mindful of the crowd around you. This week you’ll be asked to find the balance between where others end and where you begin. You’re on a mission of self-discovery so don’t let others dictate how this process unfolds, just as you start to feel more like yourself again.
