CANCER: JUNE 21 to JULY 23:
This month starts out on an irritable note but after about ten days you should start to calm down. Unfortunately, you will be inclined to splurge and impulse spend, across the whole month. But at least in the last half of the month you will have a better attitude about it. Strive to be courteous and you will diminish your hassles.

Hx-44 Coming to Meet. Secure your friendship before you ask for something!

If you get behind it will be difficult to catch up. It will be hard for you to find reliable workers or authority figures. Everyone will be trying to avoid time demands.
LEO: JULY 23 to AUG. 23:
The Force will be with you this month, it will! Your energy level will be high and you will be spontaneously assertive. It is your time to take the initiative and put goals in motion.

If you act too strongly you will encounter accidents or disruptions. Just slow down and make steady advances, rather than sudden ones.
VIRGO: AUG. 23 to SEPT. 23:
This will be a month of multiple choices and exaggerated understanding. The big confusions have fallen away, but your sense of what can be done will be misconstrued. Your sense of direction will be impaired. Let your take on things settle for a few days. It will be wiser to avoid making suggestions to others.
The Full Moon of May 12 will be a relatively uneventful lunation. Stay in your comfort zone!
The New Moon of May 27 will be a stressful lunation. Keep your co0mments to yourself!

Special Focus:
If you were born between Sept. 20 and 23 this will be a depressing month. You are far away from your goals and confidence will suffer. Your discontent is telling you what needs to be done. This is not the time to quit! Rather you should bide your time, and wait for this low spot to pass, which it will, by the last week of the month. Consider adding a skill repertoire.
LIBRA: SEPT. 23 to OCT. 23:
Your initiatives will be spontaneous and smooth, but your self-worth might come into question. Poor choices will cost you. Your capacity to overindulge and want what is out of reach will pull you off centre. This will be a good time to try to finish a meal one mouthful before you are satisfied.
The Full Moon of May 12 will be a relatively uneventful lunation. Move away from heated discussions!
The New Moon of May 27 will be a harmonious lunation. Trust your instincts!
Hexagram Theme:
Hx-33 Retreat. Take some time out for yourself!
Special Focus:
If you were between Sept 23 and 25 then this will be a month filled with temptation. You will likely be enchanted or struck by glamour. If someone flatters you, you will believe it without questioning their motives. Avoid making promises. If you find yourself trying to explain to someone, then you will probably not be talking to a friend.
SCORPIO: OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 22
This will be an abrasive month for most Scorpios. There will be tension in the air and you will be quick to judge. If you do not have something positive or nice to say, it would be a good idea to keep quiet. Unfortunately, you will be holding onto strong judgements, and you will be quick to comment sarcastically. Drive carefully!
The Full Moon of May 12 will bring mixed signals to the surface. Avoid splurging!
The New Moon of May 27 will be a relatively uneventful lunation. Not all ideas are worth paying attention to!

Oct.23-Nov.6: Hx-33 Retreat. The body is still but the mind is overactive.
Nov.7-22: Hx-12 Standstill, Stagnation. Do not contend with group consensus!
Special Focus:
If you were born between Oct. 25 and 27 then this will be a time of confrontations and power struggles. You are not likely to be very tolerant and you will be quick to anger. Your strength will come from standing your ground silently. Don’t back down, and more importantly, don’t announce what you are thinking.
SAGITTARIUS: NOV. 22 to DEC. 22:
Your charisma will be high this month. You will be charming and somewhat flamboyant. You will be able to easily get what you want. Some people might misunderstand you or take a different view. Take it in your stride. There will be no need to exaggerate. Accentuate physical activity!

The New Moon of May 27 will be a stressful lunation. Keep your opinions to yourself!
Hexagram Theme:
Hx-12 Standstill, Stagnation. Self-centred actions will not get support!
Special Focus:
If you were born between Dec. 19 and 22 then this will be a serious month where you have to take care of responsibilities. There will be some effort to avoid this, but it would work better if you fix the difficulties first and play later. Confusions and expectations have lifted, but there is some residual karma to clean up.
CAPRICORN: DEC. 22 to JAN. 20:
You will be upset by people who are aggressively pushing for what they want. You will quickly get repulsed. If you voice your contempt, you will make matters worse. The challenge here will be to maintain a sense of courtesy. Don’t get pulled down to the same level. Likewise, if you push too hard for what you want, it will cost you.
The Full Moon of May 12 will be a harmonious lunation. Smooth moves!
The New Moon of May 27 will be a relatively uneventful lunation! Listen more than you talk.
Hexagram Theme:
Hx-25 Innocence the Unexpected. Do not hesitate!
Special Focus:
If you were born on Dec. 23 or 24 then this will be a gullible month. Nothing will be as if seems. Do not chase after mirages. Your expectations of others will complicate matters. It would be wise for you to leave well enough alone and keep aloof from any kind of dependencies. A simple, humble way would be good. Be helpful without any conditions!
AQUARIUS: JAN. 20 to FEB. 19:
The wrong side of the Force you will encounter this month. Do not give it encouragement! Do not force issues or argue about them. Anger management might be needed. No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Why should you complain or take offense? Slow down and keep well rested.
The Full Moon of May 12 will be a stressful lunation. An irresistible force meets the immovable object!
The New Moon of May 27 will be a harmonious lunation. Communication will be highlighted!
Hexagram Theme:
Jan.20-Feb.4: Hx-25 Innocence the Unexpected. Speak your mind!
Feb.5-19: Hx-13 Fellowship with Men. Work with others!
Special Focus:
If you were born between Jan. 22 and 24 then this will be a month of confrontations. Power struggles will arise. Your knowledge will be challenged. If you show anger or even impatience it will diminish your credibility. If you say nothing you will have nothing to defend. Be true to yourself and let the chips fall where they7 may!
PISCES: FEB. 19 to Mar. 20:
It will be hard for you to discern what information is correct and what is not. Your multifaceted nature can probably see many perspectives, but it will be difficult for you to gain a proper perspective. You will be inclined to extend yourself more than you should. A little restraint will work wonders. Many things can wait until the time is right.
The Full Moon of May 12 will be a harmonious lunation. Good for business instincts!
The New Moon of May 27 will be a stressful lunation. Don’t over-extend!
Hexagram Theme:
Hx-13 Fellowship with Men. Teamwork will cut through obstructions!
Special Focus:
If you were born between Mar. 12 and 17 then you will suffer from poor timing. You will want to expand when you should contract, and contract when you should expand. This is a month filled with misunderstanding. Try not to set it in motion. Good intentions will likely have a hidden agenda.

The 7 Rays and the Hexagrams with Robin Armstrong
The 7 Rays and the hexagrams are the same in source but become seemingly different when manifested. They represent the descent of higher consciousness into man in a form that can educate and elevate the human consciousness. Special insights arise when one sees the rays in the hexagram lines.

Obverse
Steven Rosati
Enhanced with vibrant colours and metallic gold paint, the reverse design by Jori van der Linde features an intertwined sun and moon engraved at the centre of a celestial circle, which is divided into 30-degree sections that house each of the 12 western zodiac signs (counterclockwise from the 9 o’clock position): Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. Set against a deep blue night sky filled with stars, the zodiac signs are rendered in an illustrative style and paired with their engraved glyph, which appears in the inner ring. The sun’s long rays form divisional lines, as they radiate outward towards the moon phases engraved along the outer edge in counterclockwise order, beginning with the new moon in the 12 o’clock position. The obverse features a wavy pattern behind the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.
Jori van der Linde, Artist
“I thoroughly enjoyed creating this intricate coin and all its elements, especially the sun motif. The long, wavy sun rays extend to the edges like celestial fingers, elegantly dividing the symbols and highlighting the starlit beauty of each zodiac illustration.”

“From 2018 to 2026, Uranus travels through Taurus. Known as the planet of excitement, innovation, change, and astrology, Uranus in Taurus represents a time of significant financial shifts. This Canadian Zodiac coin captures the spirit of these times.”

Robin has a new site on Trigrams and Astrology.
https://rasa.ws/embed/#?secret=vwkWNmyPwV
Robin has six new websites about the I Ching and astrology.
I Ching Links
The I Ching is a zodiac of 64 divisions. Each hexagram line relates to a Zodiac degree. This site shows the correspondences, gives interpretive examples and to tools for you to work forward on your own.
https://www.astrologyiching.com/embed/#?secret=d4Qr6LaXuY
This site Explains in detail the relationship of the I Ching to the cycles of the year, the month and the day. In other words to the Zodiac signs, the moon phases and aspects, and to the daily houses.
https://www.ichingastrology.com/embed/#?secret=1yL1nYQORr
A site about the I Ching with a good history, and instructions about how to divine a hexagram using yarrow stalks, coins or dice. There are also the deeper implications and meaning of the I Ching in the Great Treatise.
https://www.ichi-ng.com/embed/#?secret=boV280lPAS
This site presents a completely new interpretation of each hexagram and hexagram line. References to the Superior Man and his virtue, have been removed. In this interpretation One does this or One does that. The advice is given for the individual and not just for the man. This is a significant change in the I Ching. Not to be thought of as a replacement for the old, but as an add on for more modern and astrological significance.
https://www.iching-hexagrams.com
This is a site of cosmic alignment. The relationship of the I Ching to numbers, Kabbalah, the Seven Rays, Zodiac Signs and Houses are presented.
https://www.i-ching-changes.com
This is a site that takes the I Ching beyond words. It shows how to drum the hexagrams and then how to interpret them musically in melodies. It also shows how to chant the hexagrams, working to turn duality into unity.

This website is my resume!
