Raising flags of national and tribal distinction often ruffles my Aquarian sensibilities regarding our collective humanity. Tribalism can refer to a group attitude of undeserved pride and superiority based solely on identification with a group. Dr. Seuss’s Star-bellied Sneetches learned this lesson well, “…until neither the plain nor the Star-Bellies knew whether this one was that one…or that one was this one…or which one was what one…or what one was who.” As we raise our rainbow flag rightfully coloring and claiming our place within the world, and gather with our community in celebration, heed the Sneectches’ wisdom by understanding that we are all in this together. Any group or sub group that has suffered at the hands of tribalism is potentially equipped with the necessary empathy that will continue to grow humanity’s capacity to maintain our beautifully unique and varied colors, while holding a larger truth that recognizes we are part of the Holy Whole.
ARIES (March 21–April 19) Your efforts to create a happy home require plenty of negotiations with the rest of the clan right now, making it very important that you learn the distinction between a healthy disagreement and bullying. Your desire to be recognized as the queen of the castle will be readily granted when you are gentle and empathetic, rather than tyrannical.
TAURUS (April 20–May 20) You will be called upon from within to courageously express your most tender and vulnerable feelings.

GEMINI (May 21–June 20) Gather with small circles of like-minded people reaching for altered states of consciousness. These congregations can be adventurous and fun, as well as deep and profound. You will return Home with a pocketful of treasured values that are both deeply personal and Universal.
CANCER (June 21–July 22) Put on your courage cloak and step unapologetically into the lead role. You will benefit financially from this burst of self-confidence, as those around you will easily feel your self-assured fearlessness. This is not a time to shrink, procrastinate, or withhold your gifts. Get on out!
LEO (July 23–August 22) Avoid all temptations to check into la la land with the addiction of your choice. You have a rare opportunity to attune to your ancestral lineage, pulling in critical information previously veiled from your awareness. It is imperative that your channels are clear enough to receive the wisdom.
VIRGO (August 23–September 22) You may find that family and community are merging together and becoming one. Don’t worry about having matching silverware when you invite them all to dinner, as the overall vibe will bring your awareness out of the details and into the broad and indefinable. Seeing yourself in everyone is the gift from this perspective.
LIBRA (September 23–October 22) No matter how much you would like to settle at night into a comfy movie and popcorn at home, the phone keeps ringing and calling you into various social outings and work gigs. Play hard and work hard. Home and rest will find you after the job is done and the party is over.
SCORPIO (October 23–November 21) Book your travel plans immediately if you have not done so already. Your journey may take you to far away lands, however, you are questing for a deepening sense of home. Be sure to pack a symbolic stone, or a picture or piece of home in your luggage that will serve as a reminder of your intention.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22–December 21) The shadows of your family and your past are competing with your desire to run care free. Both have a place on your calendar this month, but resist the temptation to seek only pleasure while avoiding pain. Let each moment and feeling arise as it will, as if you were not in control.
CAPRICORN (December 22–January 19) Have a sense of humor when you find yourself shaking hands with your shadow self who might be packaged as a family member. You will need that light perspective as you enter disagreements with loved ones. Stop playing a role, and move into a more vulnerable dialogue with yourself.
AQUARIUS (January 20–February 18) Now that work and relationships are burning bright and easy, you must turn your attention to your body. True presence lives in our embodiment of consciousness. Tune into your body, and make a home for yourself within it. Start by being acutely aware of physical sensation and feelings without going into analysis paralysis.
PISCES (February 19–March 20) Take a little more subjective and personalized view of existence while you navigate the realms of the sacred “I”. You must have a distinct self that can express a distinct skill or passion if you want to be seen, felt, and experienced by others. Make this month about you.
