ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
This month there are a lot of planets pulling you in external directions. Mars, Venus and Mercury currently sit opposite your Sign and finally the Sun at the end of the month will be opposite Aries. Therefore be careful of distraction with meaningless things that are beyond your control. The aspects stimulate you to feel agitated so slow down and be mindful.
Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. This month be careful of too much activity. You have a tendency to run after everything that comes to mind. Slow down and be thoughtful first.
TAURUS (April 20 May 20)
This month all the planets are far from Taurus and not effecting you with any intensity. Next month in October this will change so I would recommend you prepare with some reflective meditations on the focus of your life. This type of meditation is always beneficial but it will be especially beneficial for you with a busy October on the horizon.
Taurus Buddhists love to be grounded and practical. This month work on the motivation that is the central thread of your life. What is the meaning of your life? What is important, think about that and start to live it in all your actions.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
It is a good month to go slowly. The Sun and Saturn are square your sign and so you will most likely be frustrated. The frustration may feel like you are blocked and this will grow as the month continues so be mindful of your motivation. A good remedy to this is to go slowly and be thoughtful and reflective about life. We learn some of the best lessons in life if we contemplate that which obstructs us.
Gemini Buddhists are quick on their intellectual feet. This month stop thinking about too many things and focus on the fact this is samsara and therefore not reliable. Don’t jump around intellectually, be peacefully thoughtful.
CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
A great month to do simple things. The Sun and Saturn are beneficially aspected from Virgo. Life is influenced by many factors and this particular month is beneficial for thoughtful meditations. You are a feeling based sign so these aspects are useful to help you think about your feelings rather than just expressing them.
Cancer Buddhists normally work with feelings. This month be reflective and patient. Patience is a wonderful virtue. It increases all virtuous activity and stabilizes existing positive feelings.
LEO (July 23 - August 22)
This month it is good to focus on spiritual issues. Your mind and spirit are strong with a Neptune opposition. This is helped by good aspects with Mars, Venus and Mercury. If you keep a spiritual focus then you will have a great sense of purpose in your life. This is an excellent month to meditate on the activities of a Bodhisattva. That is a life of vision and kindness.
Leo Buddhists like to be motivators. This month you have a vision and you have good energy, intelligence and affection. What more do you need? Just do it.
VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
This is your birthday month. Birthdays have a double meaning, one is you are a year older and the other is you are a year closer to your death. Therefore be thoughtful and express your gratitude to your parents and family. They are the field you cultivate your spiritual practice in on a daily basis. This month is great for reflective meditations. The Sun and Saturn are conjunct for several weeks and that means you can go deep into yourself in a reflective manner. Don’t criticize yourself, just be thoughtful and contemplative.
Virgo Buddhists do things in an orderly manner. This month slow down and be a wellspring of wisdom and quietude. Let activities unfold as time and space avail themselves.
LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
This is your birthday month. Birthdays have a double meaning, one is you are a year older and the other is you are a year closer to your death. Therefore be thoughtful and express your gratitude to your parents and family. They are the field you cultivate your spiritual practice in on a daily basis. This month you are very energetic with Mars, Venus and Mercury all in your sign for three weeks. Therefore do something constructive with your life and stop just trying to balance things all the time.
Libra Buddhists keep life in balance. Balance can be useful but it also can take the power out of some actions. Don’t think that samsara and nirvana need balancing. Rather be positive and forthright about your good feelings. That swings the balance to the positive side and actually improves your karmic position in life.
SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
A great month to do simple things as the Sun and Saturn are beneficially aspected from Virgo. Life is influenced by many factors and this particular month is beneficial for thoughtful meditations. You are a feeling based sign so these aspects are useful to help you think about your feelings rather than just expressing them. You and Cancer people are similar in this manner.
Scorpio Buddhists are passionate. This month relax and let things take their own time to manifest. Excitement can be a distraction if you rush into projects. Better to appreciate the right timing for activities. That guarantees success.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Depth of feeling runs strong, but maybe in the wrong direction. Know you have a deep feeling about life and important life issues but don’t let it dominate your activities. Open up and let things unfold slowly and gracefully. You tend to be moody about how things are developing. This is caused by a Venus, Mercury and finally Sun square to Pluto in Sagittarius.
Sagittarius Buddhists are inspired individuals. This month it is better to let your motivation be simple and uncomplicated. You tend to get moody and even obstinate this month. Slow down and relax. The mind with few thoughts or expectations is often a mind with contentment, especially if you maintain a positive and peaceful attitude.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
You have a steady mind in the first days of the month. This is stimulated by a good aspect from the Sun and Saturn in Virgo. Be slightly careful as Mars, Venus and Mercury are all square your Sun Sign. That means be contemplative about what is happening and don’t follow your blind desires. Be peaceful and an ocean of calm for those around you.
Capricorn Buddhists reflect and contemplate on decisions. A time of deep wisdom is here so enter into this month by developing a thoughtful attitude. You can be an ocean of wisdom if you focus on that. Let the small boat of liberation sail smoothly across the ocean of samsara for the month.
AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
The month is characterized by visions and daydreams. It is a good time to relax and enjoy the fall season. Reflect on the activities of the summer. Be quiet and mindful. Your dream life may increase if you turn your attention to deeper psychological issues. Mars, Venus and Mercury are beneficially positioned to give you insights if you slow down and meditate regularly.
Aquarius Buddhists are sociable beings. This month your vision is expansive. Allow yourself to think about the inconceivable. Good month to meditate on the void.
PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
The month starts with a sense of excitement but slowly things peter out. Uranus is opposite the Sun and Saturn for most of the month. This can mean that plans seem to go astray. Go slowly and let things unfold in a natural way. As the month closes you will feel much better and more relaxed. Be careful of getting opinionated in an argumentative manner.
Pisces Buddhists are sensitive and introspective. This month your sensitivity is agitated. You are in a rush to prove things to people and everything seems to go wrong. Better to slow down. It might seem difficult at first but say no to agitation and your patience with those feelings will get stronger as time passes.
