QUESTION4U: What are you doing to achieve success? Do you presently enjoy success and contentment? When will you attain that main short-term goal of yours? Remember, all depends on your behavior and attitudes (determination, persistence).

MEGA FORTUNE COOKIE: To become a winner, take initiative, attack problems (not people), break the cycle you're in, and turn passion into action. YES, to put your Life back on track, believe in your potential, strengthen your confidence. To discover avenues that you have not explored before, have a black-and-white objective view of your skills, talents, and interests and try new activities. YES, winning is your only option. Never settle for second-bestIt is your personal satisfaction that is at stake after all.

JULY 24-25: Time to make decisions and take action. For example, if you have been looking for work elsewhere (another state or country), if you are seeking promotions, lateral transfers, or freelance assignments, now's the time to write an effective resume, and send it out. Apply only for jobs you are sure you will enjoy even if it means a major career shift and/or moving thousands of kilometers away even if the job requires training, studies, and lots of overtime. Better feel overworked and tired than unemployed. Finally, adding new skills to your already acquired experience will eventually mean more income. Remember, just when you fear that money is gone, more will show up possibly during the period between mid-SEPTEMBER and late OCTOBER.

WORKABLE STRATEGIES: Identify your strengths. Reach out to anyone who might offer advice or ideas. Find mentors. Network (make friends). YES, reach out. YES, believe in your potential, strengthen your confidence. Make new contacts with successful and influential people who can assist you in accessing better times and much improved living conditions. Then, prepare to experience a totally unexpected breakthrough. Take action today!

JULY 26-27: General prospects for loving relationships and friendships are much brighter during this weekend. If you are willing and available, if you have been without anyone for an extended period, someone who shares your values and meets your standards (cheerful, easygoing, and socially broad-minded) might come into your Life. No matter how short-lived or how long this relationship will last, you will most likely carry the memory of it forever. Even if great love and great achievements involve great risk, this last week of JULY can be electrifying, exciting, and really memorable if you put lots of energy into your social life.

WORKABLE STRATEGIES: Happiness grows from the inside out. INSIDE: Open your heart and pump in new blood. OUTSIDE: Develop more solid friendship connections (networking, connecting with like-minded individuals, doing some volunteering). Have some conversation with the very people you tend to neglect. Prepare to start a new relationship, possibly a durable one if it outlives the Eclipses month of AUGUST (MEGA RELATIONSHIPS STORMS)!

JULY 28-31: Your financial picture (recovered cash-flow) should brighten considerably as long as you build up a higher degree of expertise in your specific type of work. Of course there will be numerous obstacles possibly during the Eclipses month of AUGUST (MEGA OCCUPATIONAL, FINANCIAL STORMS), but if you focus on better managing your personal finances (saving, spending, borrowing money), paying off debt, and developing doable moneymaking strategies such as finding fulfilling employment (appropriate income), your efforts and sacrifices will eventually lead to financial stability possibly during the period between mid-SEPTEMBER and OCTOBER. GOOD LUCK!

FORTUNE COOKIE: Moderation is your best option.

AUGUST RELATIONSHIPS: During the Eclipses month of AUGUST (MEGA EMOTIONAL, RELATIONSHIPS STORMS), fixed attitudes and opinions need to be confronted. For example, you might come to realize that your actual relationship does not provide you with the security (mutual lack of trust) you so dearly need. It would be prudent to assess the situation carefully and practically before you decide to move out. Why? Well, there is a simpler solution. Assess the status of your relationship and figure out if the union is a happy one or not. So, please be careful when you speak your mind. All your efforts invested to salvage this relationship might go down the drain in one instant. It is good to speak your mind but at the same time you should do your best not to be drawn into a quarrel. This is no time to retaliate aggressively. Getting even is one thing, but if you overstate your point of view, one day your emotions will feel guilt-ridden with no one around to comfort you.

WORKABLE STRATEGIES: To salvage your relationship, some behaviors will need to be changed. It is entirely up to you to make the effort to bring your ex back into your Life. Needless to say that manipulating your ex into coming back to you, won’t work. You cannot force someone to love you. To avoid a breakup and save your union, focus on conflict resolution in order to regain your lover's affection. Give the relationship some slack and allow your ex to come back when he or she feels ready. Thanks to improved communications chances are that you will get your derailed relationship back on track before SEPTEMBER ends.

QUESTION4U: If for one reason or another, this was the last time you were to see someone you love, would you treat that person differently knowing that it would be the last time you would speak to that person? Would you treat that person with more kindness more compassionately rather than rushing away? Would your heart be more open? Now, do visualize and Imagine that you are saying a final goodbye to that person. Please understand that I make this suggestion not to scare you, but to encourage you to be fully conscious of the following possibility; if those you love so much were no longer around you, you would most probably be a pretty lonely person. So next time you say GOODBYE to someone you love, someone you like, a friend, never ever forget to tell that person how much you Love him or her and how much you enjoy sharing your life with that loved one. Dare fill each moment, each minute, each day with affection, love, appreciation, Loving Kindness and compassion. You are truly blessed!

PS: This incident just happened to me (twice): a dear woman friend who came to visit us two weeks ago and another woman (a neighbor) both died this week.

ENCORE FORTUNE COOKIE: Moderation is your best option.

AUGUST MONEY: To survive financially, learn to do better with whatever money you presently have at your disposal. Better money management will require that you deal with fewer credit cards. Again, you cannot afford to undertake any costly major project (job switch) and risk losing your savings. Since a much deeper world recession is forecasted, plan to have at least 6 months savings in the bank to cover your monthly bills. The obvious goal here is to get your personal finances into tip-top shape, get out of credit card debt, buy with cash, and save more money just in case you would become job-less Sorry!

WORKABLE STRATEGIES: Make sure you share secrets or confidential information with people who really deserve your TRUST. Let go of people who pretend to be supportive but are not. Manipulators who win your confidence only to drain you of your emotional energy don’t really deserve your friendship.

AUGUST WORK: During the Eclipses month of AUGUST, you might miss a crucial opportunity due to your lack of preparation. Increasing competition (50 candidates for ONE vacant job) could hamper your chances to be employed during this AUGUST 1 SOLAR ECLIPSE period. This dreadful situation could create enormous nearly unbearable pressure on youespecially if you are not adequately prepared, trained and experienced. This disastrous situation risks remaining unchanged until you come up with sufficient proof of capable performance that can be objectively measured. I’m sure you deserve a better fate than ending up in a dead-end job and lifestyle. No one can stop you from becoming successful, but yourself.  Astrologically speaking, there are solid moneymaking opportunities from mid-SEPTEMBER to late OCTOBER if you focus on your strengths and have great credentials. So, be pro-active!

WORKABLE STRATEGIES: During the Eclipses month of AUGUST (MEGA OCCUPATIONAL, FINANCIAL STORMS) you might have difficulty at your workplace due to lack of satisfactory performance or a personality conflict. What to do? Well, to keep your job, you will have to work smarter in order to prove to be indispensable to your employer. GOOD LUCK!

AUGUST & the LAW COURTS: During the most challenging AUGUST MEGA STORMS, both your temper and your nerves can be on edge. A conflict with the law is possible (speeding, cell phone, texting while driving, road rage).

AUGUST 1 SOLAR ECLIPSE:
DEFINITION: A SOLAR ECLIPSE is like a light bulb that suddenly goes OFF. Certain events make you feel powerless. Astrologically speaking events that take place near SOLAR ECLIPSES take on added importance. Consequently it is imperative that you understand what is presently going on in your Life and why you must bring major corrections in order to successfully undertake a major turning-point where an old order is in the process of dissolving and a new beginning are on the horizon.

INTERPRETATION
:
There are a lot of changes going on during this NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE period, mostly destabilizing ones. Intimate relationships might be crumbling and dissolving possibly due to conflict of personality (strong egos). Beware of getting involved in a judgmental, religious or political argumentative conversation. Fact is that a relationship might be in peril. To avoid further turbulence, give someone close to your heart your undivided attention and Loving Kindness based on trust and respect.

WORKABLE STRATEGIES: Be honest and sincere in your comments but fair. The simpler, the better. Provide context for your remarks. Instead of just telling that person what to do, it might be far better to understand what he or she wants and provide easy and doable suggestions. The effort you make at fulfilling his or her needs will have an impact that creates TRUST. Relax, give support, and share a laugh. Make that loved one feel special whenever possible. YES, have Someone Special to share your victories. Try it, you'll like it!

AUGUST 16 LUNAR ECLIPSE: One week before and one week after the LUNAR ECLIPSE, disturbing flashbacks of some recent traumatic events could trouble you and damage your emotional stability and block your well-being. To accelerate your recovery and overcome such human evil, please find and talk openly with an experienced professional counselor specializing in healing such painful and overwhelming memories. If on your journey of healing you have a firm desire to work on traumatic issues and if you have a survivor mind-set, what hurts you now will alleviate with time. You will get better if you have the courage and strength to reclaim your Life. You’re a survivor, aren’t you?

WORKABLE STRATEGIES: During this LUNAR Eclipse period (AUGUST 16), make sure you share secrets or confidential information with people who really deserve your TRUST. Let go of people who pretend to be supportive but are not. Manipulators who win your confidence only to drain you of your emotional energy don’t really deserve your friendship. Focus on conflict resolution instead. Reconciliation can be accomplished only if you use cold hard logic and remain open-minded. So, settling differences will make you feel a lot better. Prudence and restrain should be your POWER TOOLS. As always, moderation is your best option.

AUGUST 16 RELATIONSHIPS: During the LUNAR Eclipse period (AUGUST 16), emotions could become overwhelming. Intimate relationships might be crumbling and dissolving possibly due to conflict of personality (strong egos). Beware of getting involved in a judgmental, religious or political argumentative conversation. Fact is that a relationship might be in peril. To avoid further turbulence, give someone close to your heart your undivided attention and Loving Kindness based on trust and respect.

WORKABLE STRATEGIES: Be honest and sincere in your comments but fair. The simpler, the better. Make sure you share secrets or confidential information with people who really deserve your TRUST. Let go of people who pretend to be supportive but are not. Manipulators who win your confidence only to drain you of your emotional energy don’t really deserve your friendship.

SUGGESTION: Please imagine the following scenario and do tell me: if you had only 13 months to live, how would you live the end of your Life on this planet? If you had only 13 months where would you go to be fully happy? What would you bring with you? What would you leave behind? What would you let go completely? I mean completely, without any returning back. YES, what would you drop? Why don't you start doing it now?

MEDITATION: Meditate. During meditation try to explore that inner abstract world of yours which lives beyond mental definition and verbal explanation. YES, sit in silent meditation and meditate on the mantra  “everything is constantly changing and moving” chances are that you will come up with an inspiration. During meditation, focus on getting a more lucid perspective of your immediate future so that you can fulfill some of your most pressing wishes. The main point to remember here is that nothing is absolute. All living beings, all humans and animals, all material objects are constantly changing, transforming, and evolving. Sooner or later, everything breaks down and reshapes. Do your best to preserve and possibly improve the status of your relationships. Remember, nothing (good or bad) lasts forever.

SUGGESTED MEDITATION: MEDITATION on inner peace.

TESTIMONIAL: --"Your answer was just what I needed to make my decision. If I'm truly honest with myself than I have to admit that Hendrik was -and is- not the right person for me to be with in a relationship, at least not that kind  I long so for. So I have decided not to contact him anymore. If destiny wants me to meet him again I'll be glad for it. But it's 'in the hands of God' now. I'll keep you in touch. Again, MANY THANKS."-- Ann, SAN DIEGO, CALIF, USA  

TESTIMONIAL: --"Marc, you really helped moving forward. I sincerely believe you have an incredible intuitive gift for offering different perspectives and inspiring options. I have learned so much about myself. My enthusiasm has returned and has changed the way I communicate with my co-workers. I feel truly blessed. ASTROMARC is the best! Thanks again."--Caroll, SOUTHFIELD, MI, USA

TESTIMONIAL: --"You have a superior gift of forecasting. Such precise prediction service is a hard thing to find these days and you have a gem of a website. While this is a relatively small website, the message is huge. It is empowering, transformational or life changing. Every once in a while it's a good thing to be reminded of the coming pitfalls. My goals are much more attainable than I could have imagined before I sent you an e-mail. You did an excellent job. Thank you so much for your practical and valuable insights."----Roberta, SPRINGFIELD, MISSOURI, USA

TESTIMONIAL: --" I have read the report back and forward and I must say that, however sadly, you are right. I have recently been told by my employer that I maybe have to quit my job. Because of this I feel frustration and sometimes aggressive, but I am trying to do something constructive about it instead of losing my temper. I do build a wall when I feel threaten or hurt and I´m trying to open up a bit more. My intention is to, with help from your advice plan my future and be determined and patient. Bless you."--Cheryl, Ashland, OREGON, USA

q The month of SEPTEMBER: Expect lots of constructive development possibly during the last 3 weeks of SEPTEMBER. Promoting your talents and pursuing your ambitious plans should soon bring remarkable improvement to your lifestyle (see MONEY below).Astrologically speaking, SEPTEMBER seems to be the ideal month to materialize a concrete short term project or to activate some drastic changes (lover, employer, residential move).

RELATIONSHIPS: An important chapter of your life is coming to a turning point during the last 3 weeks of SEPTEMBER. If relationship and partnership matters have been rocky especially a month ago, during the Eclipses month of AUGUST, prepare to turn the page, and move on. Remember, whatever has happened in your past belongs to the past. Do what matter most to you. And, do it now. Moving in the direction of your choice will surely contribute to your enjoyment of Life. How? Well, meeting people with similar interests or needs and interpersonal communicating, building more meaningful connections and strengthening long-term intimate friendships will surely contribute to the rebirth of your happiness. We all need good friends and I know you will be ONE good friend to someone whose presence you will totally enjoy!

FINANCES
: During the first week of SEPTEMBER, some of you might become unemployed either by quitting your job, being laid off, or fired. The consequence? Well, if you focus on strengthening your survival skills, most probably your Life won’t fall apart. Indeed, if you are recently unemployed, retired, between jobs, or looking for work, the obvious solution is to control money spending habits and increase cash flow. Thanks to a winning attitude,
happiness and contentment are within your reach as long as you are willing to simplify your Life and do better with what you already have.

WORK
: Your resume (curriculum vitae) has to be thorough and your qualifications sophisticated especially during the first week of SEPTEMBER. Unfortunately for many of you, during a job interview, lack of advanced knowledge will spell disaster if you are not adequately prepared, trained and experienced. In other words, you need to come up with sufficient proof of capable performance that can be objectively verified and measured against the competition (50 candidates for ONE job).

r FENG SHUI SUGGESTIONS: 1- Chinese tradition says that a crystal chandelier is a powerful source of yang energy which might attract money and success for an entire family.
2- Always energize the south corner in your home with red candles, the southwest with a pink quartz crystal, the west with a horseshoe or metal hangings, the northwest with a wind chime or a brass bell, the north with a fountain, the northeast with a ceramic bowl or figurine, the southeast with purple flowers, and the east with a potted plant or small tree.

3- If inside your home there is a fireplace or a wood stove, hang a mirror above the fireplace and place live plants pottery and ceramic pieces on each side of it to prevent beneficial chi from escaping up the chimney.

4- Displaying images or a drawing of a crane or of a deer symbolizes longevity; of an elephant, good fortune; of a tiger, protection; of a green dragon, phoenix, and turtle, good fortune. Images of a white tiger are viewed as overbearing.
5- Hanging red tassels help retain chi energy. Remember, Feng Shui works if you make it work. So, give GOOD LUCK a chance!
