Rest of the journey that will Naturally happen.

 Life's concerns--you hardly know where to begin addressing them all. They will pour down into your life thick and fast, like the raindrops that precede a thunderstorm. You must trust that this will pass.  You need not fear that you are due to spend the rest of your life wrestling with a difficult issue. There is a way forward. There is something smart and practical that you can do. Simply identifying such an option will be your first big step in the right direction. The rest of that journey will happen naturally.  Some situations are seemingly impossible. Others are almost unbelievable. Human beings, it would seem, have an amazing ability to create confusion and complication. 
An awakening, a new way to look at a confusing aspect of your life. We all, at times, find ourselves wrestling with issues that make little sense. Often, we feel slightly reluctant to tell other people about these. Perhaps we are ashamed or maybe we just don't want to hear the same advice that we have already been given - and have tried but failed to apply. If you can go beyond whatever sense of frustration has begun to well up in you, you will yet find great inspiration
.Quick! While nobody is looking! The guards are preoccupied, the key to the prison door is within reach, if you seize your moment, you can make your escape. Or something like that. By removing an awkward obstruction from your path and enabling you to work more of the magic that used to come so freely to you in years gone by. The chance won't last forever but if you are brave, optimistic and adventurous, you will convert it into a reward that stays with you for a very long time. 
Our closest connections and our deepest affiliations are not always obvious to others. We may even hide them from ourselves. We may think we are ordinary enough, much like everyone else, then circumstances challenge our comfortable view of the world and we remember our deepest beliefs and philosophical perspectives. This week's New Moon helps to remind you of why you are different and why, therefore, some of the world's usual rules and restrictions don't really apply to you. That's exciting! 
You have a natural aptitude for solving problems. If a situation is chaotic and disorganised, you can soon see a way to knock it into shape. Others may be intimidated by difficulties but you see only the need for plans and policies which, if cleverly made and carefully implemented, will eventually restore order. That, presumably, is why the universe keeps putting so many baffling situations before you. It knows that you are equal to the task. You may not relish the challenge you face this week, but you will succeed at it. 
you must be careful. If you don't acknowledge the full extent of your own power and influence, you may end up using a sledgehammer to crack a nut or inadvertently causing some kind of hurt or harm as a result of some overly defensive emotional reaction. Don't indulge that, 'woe is me' feeling. Adopt a new mantra, instead: 'I am invincible, therefore I can afford to be gentle.
'When will you ever lead a peaceful life again? That's a good question and it deserves a little intelligent deconstruction. Firstly, we must ask, what do we mean by 'peaceful'? Do you truly pine for a less eventful existence? Don't you thrive on at least some degree of pressure? And what do we mean by 'again'? Was there really ever a time when you led an ordinary life? Haven't you always enjoyed an appetite for drama? 
Mercury's recent retrograde phase is over. With that comes an end to some of the stress and strain you have lately been starting to feel. While such heavenly phases are highly beneficial for all who wish to review and reconsider significant plans and arrangements, we astrologers must concede that the planets encourage such reflection with both a carrot and a stick. Of late, you have been more aware of an apparent threat than of some great potential reward. Soon you will see why it has all been for the good.
 'Oh soldier, soldier, won't you marry me with your musket, fife and drum.' So goes the old folk tune and I'm sure there are many songs in different cultures that echo this theme. The soldier tells the maid that he can't marry her unless she first supplies him with this - or that. The wish list gets ever longer. The harder the poor heroine tries to meet every newly arising need, the more demands are made on her. Does that remind you of anyone this week? Stop trying so hard and worrying so much. What you truly need, you will get.
