Welcome to this MTZ weekly astrology forecast for July 18th through the 24th 2016. This
week we have a Full Moon in Sagittarius, Mercury and Venus trine Saturn, and Mercury and Venus
entering the sign of Leo. Suggesting a week of seeing possibilities and potentials in
our lives, mental and interpersonal resilience, as well as a shift towards the more expressive
and entertaining side of ourselves. In this video I'm going to show you how to work with,
and master, these astrological transits coming up next.

Moon's are a time of harvest and completion. This early part of the week we can see what
fruits in our life are producing. A status check. What's working and what is not. Some
things might need to be let go during this time so we can continue to cultivate what
is working.
In Sagittarius this Full Moon is emphasizing what is possible in our lives. A status check
of our personal perspective of life. Some of these perspectives are working for us and
some are not. It's time to let go of the limiting belief systems this week so we can continue
to cultivate the perspectives that promote future possibilities.
The way to work with this Full Moon is to see where we may have been limiting our beliefs
in the past. To open ourselves up to a new way of seeing things. That our own personal
perception of things determines what we allow to enter into our lives. By thinking small
or limiting ourselves we close ourselves up to new opportunities that we may have otherwise
seen.
Steve Job's, CEO and co-founder of Apple, is a great example of this power of perception.
Countless people told Job's along his journey with Apple that what he had envision was not
going to work and was impossible. In fact, he was even fired by Apple itself because
the board of directors thought Job's had an “insane plan” for what was possible for
the company's products. Jobs routinely had to even face these limiting belief systems
from his own team. A week before the first Macintosh was supposed to ship, his engineers
told him that the deadline was too short and they needed another week. Job's insisted the
team could finish the Mac by the original deadline. That if they could make it in two
weeks, they could surely make it in one. The team made the deadline.
This open-mindedness must be met of course with a realistic and objective view of life.
We can't simply imagine things into existence without a clear view of reality. The Centaur
that makes up the constellation Sagittarius who is aiming his bow and arrow is a great
reminder of this. If you've ever shot a bow and arrow you'll know that you must always
aim high. In fact the further you are away from your target the higher you must aim.
Of course, you don't want to aim too high, otherwise you'll miss. This Full Moon is about
aiming high, and just high enough to hit your mark.
Now let's see which area of life this is involving for you. Find your Sign from the list on the
screen and note the area of life this Full Moon is influencing. You can look at this
list for your Sun, Moon, and Ascendant signs to get the most detailed picture. Remember

Think about one way you can apply a greater perspective to this area of life. How are
things going in this area? What's working and what's not? What limiting belief systems
can be let go? How can you open your mind to greater possibilities in this area?

the first half of the week. This is a supportive aspect where we can have a greater sense of
discipline, maturity, and patience.
With Mercury this is involving our minds. It can be a great first half of the week for
getting things done. We will collectively have a willingness to work hard and steadily
towards anything that requires mental aptitude. We will be more grounded in our thinking and
our communications will likely be matter-of-fact.
With Venus these grounded qualities will come through interpersonal relationships. We can
be stable, reliable, and practical with others. Our relationship needs tend to be realistic
and matters involving commitment, patience, and responsibility can go well. Even our desires
and enjoyments of life can be disciplined and modest.
The challenge with this aspect is to actually apply it and do quality work. Sometimes during
easy transits we may choose to do nothing or not put our whole heart into what we're
involved with. Use this week to work on projects or important work that needs to be done well.
With relationships see where you can work on practical things together. Use this week's
constructive energy and do your best in what you do.
To illustrate this configuration consider the story about a carpenter getting ready
to retire. The carpenter went to his boss and told him about his plans to retire from
the house-building business. His boss was sad to see him go because he was such a great
builder. He asked the carpenter to build one more house before retiring. The carpenter
accepted and began working on the house. With his mind on his soon-to-be leisurely life,
he put in a half-hearted effort. He took shortcuts and used low-quality materials. By the time
the home was completed it was well below his usual standards.
So the carpenter went to his boss and told him the home was finished. They both went
to the home and as they looked at it from the outside the boss turned to the carpenter
and said “My friend, this house is yours. This is my gift to you as a thank you for
all your years of hard work”.
The carpenter was shocked. Took the keys and as he stood there looking at his retirement
home he wished he had done a better job.
With this easy aspect this week it's a great time to put our best into what we do.
Here is a list of which area of life this aspect can best be utilized for you personally.
Think about how you can apply hard work to this area. Take a proactive approach and there
is a good chance you will be pleased with the results.

The second half of the week we have Mercury and Venus entering Leo. The sign of Leo is
about self-expression and doing things because we enjoy them. With Mercury we can have a
heightened ability towards creative thinking and expressing ourselves verbally. With Venus
of giving, sharing, and having fun with others. This is an excellent weekend for creativity,
entertainment, fun, as well as hobbies and interests.
The key with Leo is to balance this expressive side of ourselves. If we become too self-oriented
or self-gratifying we can neglect those around us. The best manifestation of Leo is about
sharing and giving to others. Particularly sharing ourselves and not taking ourselves
or life too seriously.
If you consider the art of comedy, which is the natural domain of Leo.. What's truly funny
and entertaining in life is tapping into who you truly are. Consider the quote by Jerry
Seinfeld who said, “ the whole object of comedy is to be yourself, and the closer to
that you get, the funnier you will be”.
This of course means not taking yourself, or life, too seriously. As Rita Rudner put
it “There's nothing funny about a confident person who's doing well”.
Fun and entertainment is about lightening things up. The whole essence of laughter is
based on the roots of life which is real, raw, and deep. As Steve Allen writes, “the
subject matter of most comedy is tragic”, “Man jokes about the things that depress
him, but he usually waits till a certain amount of time has passed.. I guess you can make
a mathematical formula out of it.. Tragedy plus time equals comedy”.
Of course, remember to be compassionate with yourself and others. We're not always ready
to see the lighter side of things just yet. Sometimes we just need more time. However,
collectively there is certainly a push towards the lighter side of things this weekend.
Here is a list of areas where you can bring out your lighter side this second half of
the week.
Think about how you can let your inner child out in this area. Get creative. Think outside
the box. Have fun and entertain yourself and others.

period to build solid things.
