Be creative, mindful to manifest the best
Energies emerging from the fire element are expected to be collectively at a high this week. The warrior planet Mars has appeared six times during the readings for the Week Ahead (September 23-September 29).
How you use this energy will determine what you eventually manifest.
If you squander away this energy in anger, frustration and envy, you’ll lose an opportunity to create something meaningful. For instance, you may want to hit the gym more often this week. Or clean your cupboards and drawers which will also ensure you unblock some energies. But avoid arguments and petty fights at all costs.
If you utilise these energies in creative pursuits, you stand to gain.
The Death card, which appeared twice, points towards imminent changes. Utilise these opportunities to bring important transitions into your life.
The Emperor card, which has also appeared twice, asks us to stabilise our efforts collectively. This is further strengthened by Saturnian energies which prevailed the most during the readings after Mars. While you get down to create something meaningful, Saturn might put a hard deadline on the implementation of your idea. That doesn’t sound like fun.
As you navigate between these extremes, don’t forget to enjoy and live in the moment —like The Fool! Because all that matters is now.

[Unlike other columns on zodiac signs, I make efforts every week to bring out decan-specific readings for the twelve Sun signs. Each zodiac sign (30 degrees) is divided into three decans (10 degrees). This makes the reading more focused and accurate. It also provides better cues for the collective whole.
