Recognition can be a poisoned chalice. On the one hand, we all want to feel valued for the effort we put in and the part we've played in stories of success. On the other, when we take the acclaim for reaching new heights, we also can also become a lightning rod for criticism. With your ruler retrograde, recent issues may have meant you have become subject to extra scrutiny. That may not feel comfortable. But the truth is, when something needs fixing, my first call is usually to a Virgo. There is no-one better at diagnosing which wheel needs greasing for the machine to run smoothly.

The difference now is that, while normally this can be done in private, away from prying eyes, the Polar Eclipse asks for a public demonstration of your talents. It requires you to prove what makes you so special. This should not actually be a problem for someone with your abundant talents and finely honed skillset. You need be in no doubt about your expertise. But that does not mean you won't feel pressure to confound someone's misguided impressions. You simply must remember that misinterpretations often run both ways. We've all experienced times when, through being mistimed or delivered poorly, even helpful encouragement comes across as unwarranted reproach.

So as the Eclipse arrives and you get the opportunity to make a difference, you need not feel like the world is against you. Any seeds planted now will ripen and bear fruit of the highest quality.
