The Signs of the Time — Now that Election 2020 is over perhaps each and every one of us in the United States of American can practice Acceptance and move on with our lives. Although there will be nonsense from the ex—the current officeholders will move forward.
Although there has been an announcement of a vaccine for Covid-19 wait for the scientists to determine if that new supposed cure works. I will repeat myself ad-nauseum: coronavirus is a creation of all of us and not just those we want to blame. In order to stop the spread of Covid-19, wear a mask as well as practice Social Distancing. May I hear a chorus of “Amen”?
Mercury and Mars are out of retrograde which clarifies communication and the actions we take or don’t, to make life better for all of us. Neptune will go direct at 18 degrees of Pisces on November 29. Uranus will continue retrograde at 8 degrees of Taurus.
There is a discussion of a vaccine for the coronavirus. Make sure that this is not the Government’s method of grabbing at straws to wipe Covid-19 off the map and out of everyone’s life.
Before you read your horoscope below, may we remind you of the notion of Big Brother as discussed in George Orwell’s book 1984 published June 8, 1949? The novel examines the role of truth and facts within politics and the way in which they are manipulated.
The best investment that I have ever made…
“I met Albert in late 1991 when my life was a mess and I did not know what to do. I went for an astrology reading reluctantly and at the end of it agreed to do the Sedona Intensive. I was in Sedona January 5-12 of 1992 and did my daily exercises and then continued with the program for 3 months upon returning home. By following Albert’s directions, even when some of it made no logical sense, my life was changed dramatically for the better over the next year. He put me on a path that I never could have imagined and I will be forever grateful for that. This eventually led to my current profession, beginning in 2005, as a life coach assisting clients in making big changes in their lives. The time and money spent with Albert all those years ago is the best investment that I have ever made and gave me insights and tools that I still use today.”

Monthly Insights for the Signs
Fire Signs
ARIES (March 19 – April 18)–Now that your ruling planet Mars is out of retrograde in Aries, it is time to get back in the game of bartering for a better place in your work world. A few of your good ideas are about to make you richer as well as happier. The lesson to have been learned by you faster than the speed of light Arians is to be kinder, softer and gentler. Since you didn’t know to ask, your sense of generosity will also figure in your number of monetary successes. It’s about asking, “What can I do for you?” with no strings.
LEO (July 21 – August 21)–Now that we are in the Sagittarius house of the Zodiac, you lions and lionesses can preen and try out for a meaty role in the theatres of your mind. Until December 21 you are playing in the best part of the forest—so let yourselves go. Then the Sun goes into Capricorn, the all-business Sign of the Zodiac. Can you imagine Christmas and New Year’s Eve are Saturn-ruled Capricorn domains? That’s why there is so much weeping and wailing when the bills from the Holidays show up in your mailbox. Waaaaaaaaaaaaa.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 20)–Even though this is your Solar Time of the year, don’t get too far out on a limb of a tree you know nothing about. Aiding and abetting your sense of exploration in faraway places is your ruling planet Jupiter in the Sign of Aquarius for quite a while. Aquarians are what the New World Order is all about: justice and the rights of all people and races not just for privileged sycophants. Have a great 31 day time of your life…you deserve it.
Earth Signs
TAURUS (April 19 – May 19)–The weight on your shoulder that is proving to be immovable this month is that often-times erratic and deceptive planet Uranus is in Taurus. This has caused you fits with certain relationships as well as a dip in your financial well-being. We have reminded a few Bulls lately that neither man nor woman was meant to live by bread alone. Okay, so we’re quoting scripture which is so apt for you boys and girls this Solar Cycle. The way out of this dilemma is to find out who needs what you can afford to give away.
VIRGO (August 22 – September 21)–The first week in this Sagittarius Solar Cycle, Mercury will be in your corner in the Sign of Scorpio. But then Mercury goes into Sagittarius and that will not be so good for your mental and emotional well-being. Don’t forget that the Sun in Sagittarius also is a deterrent to Virgo getting too much done this month. We always tell all Signs that when a Solar Cycle is not so compatible, step out of line and do personal study or develop a hearty meditation life. No sign needs a time out as much as Virgo does. Chill.
CAPRICORN (December 21 – January 19)–Someone asked me this week what was the upside of a Capricorn. My reply was that the Goat must bear the responsibility of raw truth without the folderol most signs covet. With Pluto and Saturn (ruling planet of Capricorn) both riding the Celestial Hierarchy for several more months, it is up to these Goats to step aside and allow reaping what we all have sown. Never ask a Capricorn a question unless you are prepared to hear the answer—the truth and nothing but the truth.
Air Signs
GEMINI (May 20 – June 19)–Beginning December 2 your planet ruler Mercury will go into Sagittarius which is your opposite sign. Not all bad news as we can always—and should—learn a lot from an opposing view. Sagittarius is a Mutable Fire Sign and always wants to roam when staying put would better serve him. Gemini is a mutable Air Sign which makes you live more in your head. The upside for you Gemini Jays this month is to take action on some things that have been in limbo too long. Action is the magic word for you this month. Ready, set—go!
LIBRA (September 22 – October 21)–You Librans have just had a magic month with your ruling planet Venus in Libra. And you still have a great connection to the Sun this Solar Cycle in Sagittarius. All in all, this is a great 31 days for you peace and loving sorts to make a positive and profitable business connection—and your life is looking up. Don’t put all eggs in one basket but your overall planetary aspects are red hot. If you have been holding off in the romance department, move forward with confidence and surety that you are making the right choice-finally.
AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 19)–Since your ruler Uranus is still in Taurus squaring you, your celestial good friend, Mars in Aries will offset some of the heavy lifting of Uranus. Look at the world through the lens of change and opportunities for all of us not just the privileged class. If you write, let it flow. If you’re musical, bring all the notes to lift the Human Spirit to bless us all. The Moon in the US chart is in Aquarius which makes you the perfect one to rise and shine in the land of the red, white and blue.
Water Signs
CANCER (June 20 – July 20)–A friend asked me recently what sign is more difficult to be born in. One clue to the answer being Cancer is that its ruler, the Moon, goes into a different sign every two and one-half days. So in any given month Cancer must deal with the nature of all signs which can be a hassle. It may be why Cancer is the most misunderstood in the whole Zodiac. Moody, caring and mothering, Cancers are often accused of being the most difficult of all signs when in essence it is all signs and not just one as with the rest of us. And never forget that USA is a Cancer country which is why we are a nation of 100% immigrants.
SCORPIO (October 22 – November 21)–November 22 not only will the Sun go into Sagittarius but Venus will be in Scorpio for three weeks. You will be feeling upbeat and unbeatable. You are the intuitive masters of the Zodiac so let your best foot forward take you where you have always wanted to go. Your ruling planet Pluto is also in synch in Capricorn—couldn’t be in a better alignment. You have two surprises to unwrap before Christmas. Thank God for all the good that is about to come your way.
PISCES (February 18 – March 18)–The best news you will hear in a month of Sundays is that you will soon be in the best place you have ever been. Your ruling planet is now out of retrograde after months of being so. If it is time to change jobs, give notice, and never look back. If you have been diligent with paying off debt, you can now build a nest egg. Travel is still iffy so stay where you are doing what you do best. Your intuition will also hold you in good stead because it will be spot on. Always change you to change the world you touch.
Favorite Author & Book: Do Bees Have Knees?
Written and illustrated by Louise Nagrodski Abroms
I have known Louise for a long time and she and I have remained close ever since. Her father was the tailor who fitted our clothes at Pizitz Department Store when we were young and foolish. When I meet Louise more than 30 years ago we talked about this book which now is available for you to purchase.
In her own words: “As a first-generation child of Holocaust survivors, I learned early to appreciate the basics my parents worked hard to provide for me.
Be happy if there was food on the table, clothes on my back and a roof over my head. Fortunately, my parents let me have a beautiful albino rabbit as a pet. He acted more like a dog, running around and coming when I called him. The joy of that time inspired me to use Cap as the main character of Do Bees Have Knees? Cap is his name, his hat, and also happens to be part of the leg of the kneecap.
I love trying to see the world from a child’s perspective, which I hoped to convey in the illustrations. I think it is why I became a teacher. The story was conceived 40 years and finally has materialized. It is my deep and abiding hope that each of you enjoys this labor of love.”

Moments and Windstorms: Take Back Your Power
This ground-breaking book offers an in-depth journey through the author’s eye-opening addiction to alcohol and how he eventually got sober. Gaulden has written a number of books as well as being Founding Director of the Sedona Intensive, one of the country’s most highly regarded alternative personal growth programs.
The author shares all the ways God was leading and guiding him even when he was still drinking. “Most of us look at false paradigms to measure success in our lives. So much of where I went and the jobs I took helped me remember what I was to do as my life’s work.”
Gaulden’s book is divided into five parts. Each section explores different parts of his journey, incorporating all the places he’s been, the studies he’s made and the people he’s met. His point of view is that each client who sought his help made him a better person. At the end of the book, he has some daunting but hopeful words about the conditions of the planet Earth and what we need to do to survive as a race.

What Our Clients Are Saying About The Sedona Intensive
“The Sedona Intensive was a life changing experience for me. I had been searching for happiness and serenity for over 20 years and as a result of the Intensive I found that I was looking in all the wrong places. I not only experienced what happiness and serenity truly are but now understand the process needed to maintain and enhance that state of being. It doesn’t mean that I don’t experience the ups and downs of life but what it does mean is that those downs do not even come close to impacting me the way they used to. There is now a presence of mind that provides clarity and purpose that did not exist for me prior to the Intensive.
It is impossible to put a value on such a quality of life enhancing experience that the Sedona Intensive provides the person willing to do the work.It is by far the most significant thing I have done in my 62 years.
I came across a quote last week that summed up what I experienced and learned while attending the Sedona Intensive – ‘Once you stop clinging and let things be, you’ll be free’ -Bodhidharma (440ce – 528 ce), the Zen Teaching of Bodhidharma: A Bilingual Edition.”
