That's right, slow down a bit, settle in, relax, let things come to you for now. Trying to force change will only leave you frustrated but if you can sit back and take things in you'll find change abounding in the unseen regions. You're exceptionally well-suited to following the path most appropriate to your energy in a given moment. They're all going to be more dense than you prefer but sometimes that's refreshing for one such as yourself who's used to meeting challenges head-on and conquering them without a second thought in most cases, a chance to flex all your physical, emotional and intellectual muscles and really work out your kinks for a while. Have consideration for the sometimes extreme sensitivity of others this month and go with the flow to whatever degree you feel is appropriate and things will perk up around the 16th, especially in the areas of people and things to which you're magnetically and aesthetically attracted and the ideas growing out of your dreams.
Oh, what a rejuvenating time this can be for you, Taurus, provided you let things run through without weighing you down. There's undoing going on in the arenas of mind, spirit and emotion, but if you've directed your energies well in recent months it's likely that you're settled in well ahead of your evolution. You're where you intend to go, in other words, just not fully aware of it yet. If you've been haphazard your best bet for damage control is in remaining calm and letting the chain of events take you where it will, plodding on through the mud of your consequences until you reach another meadow. There will be rewards along the way as you take your lessons and make choices more suited to you. Now is the time to choose your master, that which you will allow to motivate you to action, the ideal you'll serve. Choose, if I might make a suggestion, the one who encourages you by treating you as a friend and companion, rather than the one that drives you all day and puts you away wet. If your choices are unclear, look for windows in the fog to appear around the 16th.
Every way you turn this month there's someone or -thing standing in your way or pulling at you. I'm sorry. I know how frustrating it is. Does it help to know this too will pass or is it one of those times it's most productive for you to throw your hands up and blow life off for a while? Well, if the latter, try to do so as much as possible without putting the things on hold that sustain you in meeting your needs. Or if you're going to blow those things off too, take a moment to ensure that you have an alternative plan in place. Even under this energy it oughtn't take your nimble mind any more than a moment, although it's always a good idea to double- and triple-check a plan for holes and kinks before deeming it worthy of testing under real-world circumstances especially with Mercury retrograde. Good humor is required of you in all dealings in which you'd like a positive outcome this month. If you must, refrain from interaction to whatever degree you're able until the 16th when your element becomes more prevalent again. Take care of yourself above all things.
You're about as comfortable as you ever get this month, Cancer. The energy's all dark and warm and cozy and plenty moist, homey. Of course, you're not entirely comfortable with too much comfort (what if it's actually not enough?) so there's that, but otherwise this is a pretty good time. Oh, and there is that sort of needy feeling gnawing at your innards. Where you feel vulnerable, share only with those you trust to treat you gently and respectfully without coddling or attempting to encourage dependence in you. If there's no one like that in your life and you'd like there to be, this is an excellent time to start meditating on bringing them into your life, but do take care of yourself and protect your emotions a bit. You're right, there's sometimes danger in still water and it does pay to take appropriate precaution. You may find you're manifesting your feelings very clearly through your physical being; take care that if you find your health suffering you see to correcting the situation as quickly as possible through the most reasonable means available. And enjoy. :)
If only you knew how good this energy is for you. It's a humbling, serving energy and has much to teach you about ruling your personal king- or queendom, but you must enter your tasks wholeheartedly in order to glean their lessons. Don't try to settle into anything too much though; about the time you get used to things they're likely to change. Around the 16th you begin to feel a little more on top of things again especially in your romantic partnerships. (These are not to be confused with your love relationships. The magnetic attraction of romance to beauty is designed to bring each of us {Leo or not} together with that which we consider beautiful, but it's up to us to maintain the connection with those people in and portions of life that we truly desire over time. When we've discovered that a person or thing is worth that maintenance to us we may claim to love him, her or it. When we would give everything we have and everything we are in what we perceive to be that person or thing's best interests we may claim to love unconditionally.) We'll talk more when you've got a little more to give. (Worry not, you shan't be in this state of perceived deficiency for too long. When you embrace it it can be rewarding and even fun. :) )
By the time I'm writing this (September 8th) you may have decided I'm too irresponsible to be worthy of your attention, and I wouldn't blame you but I will beg your forgiveness. You'll understand when I say it was a matter of priority. It's your specialty after all, analyzing differences, discerning ideals; choose one and you've got it made. Choose one and be willing to change your mind and you've become the highest ideal of the archetype you represent. The virtue of the virgin lies in her ability to maintain detachment, therefore choose amongst her prospects with compleat pragmatism according to her own needs, wants and desires. Once she's bodily committed to anyone or -thing changing her mind becomes much more difficult. The difficulty for you right now is that everything seems a little surreal and while you're comfortable with change you like it to make sense, which many things don't right now. I might suggesting committing yourself to the ideal of change right now, holding your morals and values firmly and following them through whatever comes in the next little while; trust yourself and let anything that doesn't seem right roll off, especially if it appears to be having an effect on your health. Keep it light, take good care and all should be well.
Not too bad, not too good, I'd expect. :) Everything feels a little dull and slow to you except of course change (as for everyone right now), but on the other hand your physical being is oddly responsive this month; responding in odd ways to odd things. This is a particularly good time for you to break down old routines and build new ones through careful analysis. Romantic relationships take a significant turn on the 16th, the first in an accelerating series of such changes likely to take place through late October when things begin to slow and settle into reality at least for a time. Discipline within the home is necessary for all of us right now, but Libra in particular as you yearn to escape what feels like a dragging influence. Not much makes sense right now and that's frustrating to you, but fortunately you don't let much get you down for long. ("He [or she] who holds the wind controls the Universe"; I think somebody said that but I don't recall who, does anybody know?) Let the weight of this energy exercise rather than burden you and you'll gain substance in the process.
Despite all the change, not always your favorite thing, this is an interesting energy to you (which does tend to lend to it's attractiveness in your eyes) and relatively comfortable; we all like comfort. You don't even mind the darkness, it's just the way things keep shifting within and around you that's a little disconcerting. Your secret tool in this energy is your ability to, despite the basic unchangingness of your nature, change your formnearly at will. You understand that so long as you maintain who you are it's not particularly important what you appear to be, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that you understand that despite who we appear to be, we are all always what we are. We may change our behavior, our position, our lifestyle, our appearance, everything about ourselves but at the core remains the mind and spirit that created the entity, eternal and unchanging. In those moments where all this stuff is blinding you and creating frustration your heart and mind are used to holding onto one another for the life you understand is dear through your innate awareness of the places of death and regeneration in the cycle. Follow your intuition, temper it with reason and they'll lead you back to clarity.
If it weren't for the pull of the past putting it's drag on your future this wouldn't be so bad. You're comfortable with change and if your spirit is burning steadily you can prevent the heaviness of this energy from weighing you down. The trick for you right now is to remain in the moment. When you have time on your hands and your mind wants to wander up and down it's hallways, take it down into your basements and up into your attics. This energy is excellent for clearing out that which haunts you and that which frightens you, which may be the same things or may be surprisingly different from one another. Once you get into those corners and shine your light on them, the things you find might not only be mundane but even evoking of pity, the torn and tattered bits of yourself you put away some while back thinking maybe you didn't want to see them again. And maybe you don't. This is a good time for approaching them extremely pragmatically, discarding that which is of no use, putting away that which is useful but not in the moment, and adding to your toolbox those things that you see now in a new light as serviceable. The advantage to being stuck is that it gives you a chance to rest, sort things out, take inventory and restock whatever resources you're able.
Well, it's not that bad but of course it could be better. There's the weight you like to this energy and the lack of fixity, but boundaries seem to be doing the opposite of what they're meant to and the changes that are taking place seem to just miss the mark in the your opinion, nearly addressing the issue as you see it but not quite. This will continue to intensify for the next little while with bumps around the 16th (especially in romantic relationships) and 24th and some relief beginning around the 9th of October. Few hang in there with your style and grace, the way you make work itself look like an art form. If you can work with these energies this is set to be a particularly fruitful time for you. When you find yourself faced with an obstacle visualize yourself looking at it from the other side; this ought to help you work out it's design and function and get through it without trauma. Where things seem just a little off it might help to consult with those around you on every level, perhaps gain a little perspective that might make it fall into place or help you reconcile how to work it out in a way that suits you as well as everyone else involved.
You want to help but you're not sure how and your goals seem just a hair's breadth out of your reach. You chase them and chase them and next thing you know you turn around and there they are already behind you, still taunting you, seeming ethereal and not-quite-real even though they're already a part of you. This is always how you are but you're not generally so acutely aware of it and aren't sure it suits you; when you're not thinking about it it doesn't frustrate you. But you know too (as you seem to know everything you need to whenever you need to know it) that you go through these periods now and then, and then forget them so you can go through them again and again until you've extracted everything from them there is to know and made it your own at which point you can put these paths away. You know you're one big paradox but again it usually doesn't occur to you to think about it so much as you find yourself doing these days. There are a few areas of comfort and familiarity in this energy; change is alright as of all the fixed signs you're the one with the most flow, and you recognize your dreams although they feel oddly juxtaposed to you of late. Fortunately you've seen this coming on some level, so it's just a matter of letting yourself be in the midst of it rather than your usual step(s) ahead. Taking care without worrying is key for you now.
The world isn't holding you back, it just feels that way right now in many areas. Your dream life is plenty active to keep you occupied if you'll let it and Virgo's energy requires realism of you which, used properly, will prevent you drowning in illusion. In fact, this is a great time for you to take those dreams apart to their most stable points (in preparation for making additions) and examine them in this light which is particularly favorable to maintaining your core and incorporating reason in building around it. Spend some time working out a new physical routine and make a point of incorporating stress relieving aspects. Explore your limits and see where they might stand some expanding, especially within your home and family. The 16th and 24th bring a lightening of energy for you (although the lighter energy may not necessarily be easier), and relief increases incrementally through October on various fronts.
