Virgo (August 22nd to September 21st)

This week’s eclipse is a perfect opportunity for you to shift your focus on liabilities and more on your assets.  Stephen Covey, author of “Seven Habits of Highly Effective People,” a book I’m sure you’ve read or should be on your reading list, speaks about something called “Sharpening the Saw.” Basically, this is investing in yourself and doing what it takes to improve your performance and the work you do. This eclipse can mean a little more than personal development, however. It’s a call to upgrade as much about you or associated with you as you can.  This first week of and after the eclipse though may not entail a lot of doing, though that may be your first impulse. For instance, if upgrade your portfolio, you might start off with a smaller section of it to see how it might do with the changes rather than a wholesale overhaul.
