May 29, 2016

Planetary Forecast By The Astrologer, Kelli Fox A clash of egos could occur today, thanks to an opposition between the self-centered Sun and brash Mars. Try being considerate to everyone affected by an important decision. It may soon be necessary to have the support of a group. This can't happen if greedy behavior wins the day. People born under the signs Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces should be especially accommodating. In addition, communicative Mercury moves forward in relaxed Taurus. Stalling tactics can work beautifully. Instead of choosing between two unpleasant options, ask for more time. It could be granted, allowing everyone to develop a better plan of action. Look for hidden opportunities and consider unorthodox ideas. Looking ahead, the hard-working Capricorn Moon will form supportive angles to both Mercury and Pluto. Finishing outstanding business will make time for artistic endeavors. If you're celebrating your birthday today, the year ahead could be quite contentious. You'll have to go to battle with some powerful people who want to take advantage of you. Defending your interests is critical to your success. Being your own advocate will strengthen your confidence and build powerful leadership skills. Kelli Fox is a certified astrologer, co-founder of The Astrologer Inc. and Lifescript horoscope expert.

Before trying to please others think of what makes you happy.

5 Hard-Core Happiness Hacks

Accept your right to happiness Accept the fact that there isn’t a perfect person alive. Every human being has made countless mistakes, has broken hearts, broken dreams and their share of regrets. You deserve to be happy as much as anyone else. Get out of your own head Your brain is a tool for performing tasks and solving problems, but it can suck you into watching an endless string of re-run movies depicting past disappointments and future fears. You can easily stop yourself from watching the reruns just by being aware of them. That’s it. As long as you’re aware when you’re doing it–you can catch yourself and chose to do other things. So choose to live in the “now,” get off your butt and do stuff. Your reruns are boring by the way. Presence is the key to an inner peace like no other. Schedule yourself in first and last Put time on the calendar for what you need to stay positive and renew your soul each day. Own at least two time slots on your own calendar. Make them yours and make them great. Read a couple chapters of your book, exercise, meditate, take an online class, whatever floats your boat. Do it. Appreciate the time between disasters Life is full of disasters and blessings. An “attitude of gratitude” is the key to experiencing joy in life. Everyone has countless blessings that we can be grateful for. If you or a loved one has cancer, well let’s be grateful for the life we had and still have. If you’re missing a limb, well someone is missing both. If you’re missing a loved one, well, you were fortunately enough to have known them and loved them eternally. If you are reading this and not born into slavery, well, lucky you. A million people less fortunate than you would give everything to for your troubles compared to theirs. Appreciate what you’ve got–as your life is a beautiful masterpiece of good experiences in between the disasters. Nobody gets out alive… so love the time you have. Fire your old gatekeeper When others try to feed you negative crap, well, don’t let them in the gate. Once they start up, as the new gatekeeper will say… “gotta go” or “can’t talk right now.” They’ll move on to some other sucker. Same goes for your eyes and mouth. Don’t watch stuff that brings you down and don’t eat what you know you shouldn’t. It’s really self-care or self-love I’m talking about–but let’s just start out by firing the old gatekeeper and commit to managing the gate better. You can do it. You deserve this thing called happiness. Reminder, there are no shortage of impoverished people who want and need nothing more than safety to be happy and there’s no shortage of zillionaires who are miserable. Newsflash: Happiness can be yours, just accept it.
