Today’s Oracle takes us to the Gemini monthly for Sept.1, 2001.

Events of the coming month are destined to teach you not to take it all so personally, but it will be a much better month if you started off with that mental posture. You’re feeling the pressure, I know. It is, at times, more than your mind can bear, and your body is probably feeling some limitations as well. But most of the burden you feel is that what’s happening is somehow intentionally directed at you from the outside. The result is that you’re set up for a lot of self-blame, because of course there must be a “reason” for all of this. We might think that self-blame is the first step toward self-improvement, because unless we come up with a nice list of things that are wrong with us (or with others), what will we have to improve? Okay, I mean, it might seem to make sense, but see how far this gets you. Or, you can take a look at the larger picture, which is trying to get your attention. And then you might ask: “How would I live if I were not afraid of myself?”
Note, The Oracle is a random selection from the Eric Francis horoscope archives. Each day we publish one entry from among the 10,000 in our database. It’s a little slice of horoscope history — but chosen by our Oracle program, which always speaks to the present moment. New horoscopes are published each Friday plus twice a month in Planet Waves subscriber edition and Planet Waves Light. And for your 2012 annual reading, you’ll find Revolution. Revelation. Reality Check.
Please help me with this – I have a Cardinal Grand Cross in my chart – what will the impact be with the Cardinal grand Cross that is in place and how long will it be there. thank you for any help with this…………
oh Huffy, you’re high-larious! 🙂
Great stuff, hugging! Will be one of the first to order your Hot Hugging Scorpio astrology calendar.
well, it was a good shoot today! She was great and I felt fantastic. Now comes the hard part: looking at what she is going to send me when they’re done…….but I’m not afraid of myself. Or am I?
I really like the question: “How would I live if I were not afraid of myself?” Feels like a good–but difficult–thing to be asking right about now. Being truthful with myself is always harder than I think it will be.
Eric, that IS spooky that it was right before 9-11.
HS, can I assume we’ll see a very “interesting” new profile pic of you in the near future? 😉
Note that this was the Gemini horoscope published just before 9-11 – an event with lots of Gemini in the chart. Reading 11 years later this is what I would call spooky
positively amazing. Yesterday, my buddy took my out dancing to this place where, for 2 hours, we all just move and be free however way you want to move to the grooves. No judging, respectful interaction with others’ space, and also some contact. I was allowing myself to “feel” awkward and dumb. I steered that into a non-intellectual space and flushed that out in favour of allowing in more relaxed confidence.
And, I’ve made an appointment with a photographer to do a nude photo session! I’ve known her for years and ALWAYS wanted to do it. Now I am ready. She basically has my body for a few hours. I’m going to allow all kinds of stuff come up, and then gently allow them to pass away as I welcome in a stronger sense of self love in my nakedness and erotic play. I’m a little nervous, but thats entirely the point.
