Astrology: What do you read, watch, listen to?

The moon has moved into the sensitive sign of Cancer, enhancing intuition as well as nurturing instincts (and the need to be nurtured). The I Ching, an ancient Chinese book of wisdom, speaks of  paying attention to how people we meet nourish themselves: from the food they eat, to the words they listen to, to their entertainment.
       We become our intake. Pulitzer Prize winning writer Annie Dillard says her fine writing is a result of taking in what enriches her life.
       This is a time to consider:  What do we listen to? Watch? Eat?  Is it nourishing or "junk"?
       The sun and two planets are still in Taurus, a sign that, as mentioned previously, indicates beauty as well as indulgence. At the same time, planets in Gemini insist on haste and are easily distracted.  The difference can create confusion.  A solution to ground and heal our lives is taking time to nourish ourselves with healthier food and beautiful, thoughtful conversation, music, entertainment.
        Try not to let Gemini and Aries' impatience push you to go faster.  Because Pluto's continuing square to Uranus is extremely tight at present, speed could be dangerous.
         Instead, let the tensions I've described here be released by Gemini's clever conversation, humor, and other self-expression like journal or creative writing or the music of Taurus.
        

Astrology: Pisces, Taurus -- Music, Creating, Taking it Easy

     The Moon and Neptune in Pisces suggest creativity, sensitivity and enhanced intuition.
     Four planets in Taurus indicate beauty, luxury, charm and music. If you are an artist or musician, it is a good time to create.
     You may even find yourself creating a more harmonious life or luxurious environment.  With these planets, there is also a need and tendency to slow down and seek the comforts of life.
     Now there is only one planet in Aries, so the impulse to rush is not as acute.
     The earth of Taurus and Capricorn and water of Pisces and of Saturn in Scorpio makes this, in general, a time to take it easy.  It is better to focus on accomplishing at the comfortable pace of Taurus rather than stepping to Saturn's strict demands.
