I just visited your wonderful Mooncircles website for the first time and found the Oracle there. Then I had this urge to ask you how my immediate future will be? I was born on April 29^th, 1955. I am a filmmaker. Well, you can guess that being an artist includes living with uncertainties both financially and professionally. Sometimes you have the feeling you cannot take it any longer. I had lived in Germany since 1982 but in 2006 I made a big move returning to my old country, Estonia. Last December I gave up my apartment in Germany and committed to Estonia for good. I had this feeling and I still do that it is easier for me to work here than in Germany. Economically, however, it feels like I am in the middle of a very tense time. I applied for a teaching job at a film school and, just yesterday, was told I did not get the job though I had been assured I would get this job. It was quite a hard blow.

Well, I am working at several projects and there is not much I could do except for the filmmaking. I really love directing and writing my scripts and I am good at it, yet it is often quite tough. Also I feel rather lonely here in Estonia. I had my life and friends in Germany and felt more at home there. Are there signs for better times ahead concerning my work and finances? (KL)

With your 10^th house Taurus Sun conjunct Mercury and your Leo Moon and Leo rising, you are an artist and are meant to be an artist. Your Venus situated in the 9^th house ruling your 10^th house makes it clear that you are an excellent teacher as I am sure you know. While it is very disappointing to find out that you did not get the job you had been counting on, this loss during a Mercury retrograde indicates that it is likely this is either not the best job for you or it is not the best time to take a teaching job. You moved back to your country of birth as Saturn conjuncted your natal Pluto, the ruler of your 4^th house of home, making this a strategic decision for you but now that transiting Neptune is opposing your Pluto you are feeling the power and emotional consequences of your decision. In the long run I think you made the right decision for your future success (your natal chart shows career success built on hard work) but you are going to be adjusting to your new/old location this year and next year as well as building your network personally and professionally. It might have been easier to stay in Germany for another year or two until some of these transits which more directly challenge you in your birth location have passed on. Could you still do some work in Germany until things ease up a bit for you in Estonia?

Now that you are home, transiting Saturn is in your 2^nd house of finances and earnings until 2010 making this time one of less income, starting over financially and investing in your future. It is hard but it will pass and you will have much to show for it. The loneliness, described by transiting Neptune opposing the ruler of your 4^th house, will persist this year and a bit less next year until you feel reconnected to your homeland. With Jupiter transiting your 5^th house this year you are filled with creative ideas and energy which you can use to write and plan projects. As transiting Saturn begins to trine your Mercury, the ruler of your 2^nd house, in the fall income and work should begin to pick up and there will likely be a teaching job for you by the winter. Your progressed Sun is changing signs over the next year which will bring changes in every area of your life including a potential new partner. Over the next 2 years you are going to be able to create the vision you moved to achieve. Best of luck!

I check Mooncircles quite often lately and really love the site and what you offer. I have a question. I was born December 19^th, 1965. I have been through quite some changes the last years having a beautiful daughter at age 40 and raising her alone. This was quite tough during the pregnancy and the first year. I had to do a lot of healing related to this and at the same time I feel so blessed to be a mother. A lot happened! Now it feels like I am ready for a new life. I got so used to my new life as a mother but now it is time for the next step which has sort of been lingering for a while. I want to take a step forward in my career from Human Resources to a personal/career coaching. In my personal life I feel ready to meet new people, take new steps, have new adventures, include more nature and spirituality in my life and a new love would be great. Can you have a look at all this related to my chart? I believe it is a full moon in Sagittarius on the 18^th and I plan on doing a "gratitude, letting go, and welcoming my new life" ritual at the summer solstice. It seems so appropriate. (AB)

As transiting Pluto conjuncted your natal Sun and opposed your Jupiter, the ruler of your Sun, your old life ended and a new one began. Pluto ended the past and birthed the future beginning with the birth of your daughter. For most people it does take some adjustment to fully become a parent and it is so much harder to do it on your own. How wonderful that you could take some time to heal, to build your relationship with your daughter, and to genuinely appreciate the blessings and responsibilities of parenting as you created your family. Your instincts are excellent as your Scorpio Moon suggests and you listened to them which are a credit to your efforts.

This summer you are coming into your transiting Saturn opposite natal Saturn aspect (ages 43-45) when it is time to review where you are in your life as a whole, what you have accomplished since your Saturn return at age 29 and where you want to go over the next 15 years. This is a right time to rebalance your home life (Saturn ruling the 4^th house) and your career life (the opposite house from the 4^th). In addition to this significant Saturn transit, this year transiting Uranus is opposing your natal Uranus/Pluto conjunction. It is now time to align your beliefs, your choices and your actions as you turn the same attention to your work that you gave to your daughter during the Uranus transit to Saturn in your 5^th house of children. Your daughter was born as Uranus, the planet of new beginnings, transited your natal Saturn in the 5^th house of children, now Uranus is transiting your conjunction in the 11^th house of the future and beliefs.

Create a future work that you believe in and that will connect you to the people and potential that you seek. Though I am sure your Libra rising and Sagittarian 3^rd house Sun are quite good at your human resources career it is time to fully utilize your Scorpio Moon conjunct Neptune insights, intuitive strengths and psychological sensitivities to go deeper with your work. Coaching is a great choice to begin over this next 6 months. Notice that you are feeling all this new, Uranian energy which you described as many "new" possibilities you want to choose. Choose them, this is the time. As you welcome the this summer solstice know that your progressed Moon is now in its full moon phase as you welcome your own fruition in life.
