Practical matters continue to demand your attention in 2004. It is important to get a better handle on money matters, work/career building and time management. New ways and means to generate income will surface. Taking a creative approach allows you to discover ways to work smarter giving you more time for fun and leisure. In the course of the next seven years spiritual issues surface more frequently for contemplation. Dreams and flashes of intuition add substance to your days. Symbolism is a huge, fascinating part of our lives yet we tend to ignore the subtle messages. Perhaps a dream dictionary could help in starting to unravel these messages that bubble up to your daily consciousness with more regularity with each passing week.
Adequate rest is vital as depleted energy levels make you prone to catching the virus of the week. The year features moving residences, remodelling or having new family members enter or leave your life. Responsibilities and perhaps burdens in this area continue to increase. This is a lesson in patience and compassion. Try to learn to reign over your temper, it yields no positive results. Prioritising issues and activities in your daily life is important. Look closely at what you truly enjoy doing and with whom you love to spend time. When most of your waking hours are spent with a smile on your face, life feels good. Happiness resonates from within.
April 3rd -August 7th brings about new learning. It is a good time frame to reconnect with siblings, cousins and people in your neighbourhood and daily environment. We don't simply talk to relay information, expressing our emotions through words and non-verbal communication is equally important. Time spent improving relationships with siblings and co-workers is well spent. Work situation may also be challenging around this time - ultimately the steps you are 'forced to take' results in dramatic improvements. Personal effort and better co-operation paves the way.
