~ Global Collective Color Wheel: First Solstice 2016 ~

Central Theme
AQUAMARINE
Flexibility and Flow are our Central Themes for the season, as Aquamarine encourages you to be flexible with the needs and schedules of others.  Resistance is futile!  The Flow is already in motion.  Water Signs Scorpio, Pisces, and Cancer take center stage, as everyone else leans on them for emotional support.  Shifts and changes in relationships are to be expected, as couples drift apart for work and career reasons.  The key here is Allowing others to follow their destiny and calling, and trust that the Universe will carry you to the place where you need to be, too.  A grand opening of sorts will be the central event in your life, as you'll feel more confident and comfortable opening up about your life journey, and will easily connect with others who open up to you, too.  Short-distance travel is a prominent theme and will keep everyone busy and on the go.

1st House: Self & Persona
LAVENDER
​Your most personal focus will be on healing your relationship with the past, as Neptune moving retrograde through the sign of Pisces will help you gain clarity on why certain events happened in your past, and what to do with lingering memories and energies as you cycle forward in the present moment.  If and when you feel overwhelmed by thoughts of the past, stop and relax your mind, and be gentle with yourself.  Issues and energies from the past are coming up to be released, and will be all season long, so prepare to encounter reminders of the past almost daily, and release them as they appear.  By season's end, these issues will be resolved and healed completely, and you'll be ready to move into the future without lingering residue or reminders of the past.

2nd House: Money & Material Possessions
DEEP TEAL
Your Soulmate's actions and decisions will affect your finances and personal holdings this month, for better or for worse.  Expect unexpected expenditures and transfers of property, understanding that all Soulmate Relationships are intended to balance Karma from this and previous lifetimes.  Be especially wary of your Soulmate's addictions, if they have any, as the energy of addiction causes financial drain and, in some cases, loss of material possessions.  Remember too, Soulmates come in many forms, and you have an entire Soul-Family you are connected to in this and past/previous lifetimes.  Notice especially how your *children* are affecting your finances, personal possessions, and retirement plans, for those who are planning to retire.

3rd House: Communication
ORANGE
A simple message about Communication this season is: Keep it Friendly!  And keep it flowing, too.  Be a good conversationalist: answer your phone, e-mails, and text messages.  Orange is a timely reminder that all good Relationships begin as friendships, built upon a foundation of consistent, constructive, purpose-full communication.  Orange encourages you to find the Balance in your Communication relationships: is someone over- or under-communicating with you?  You have the power and verbal grace to bring the imbalance back into balance.  Be respectful of others' communication boundaries, while understanding the energy you send their way will be reciprocated, as the Universe mirrors back to you exactly the same energy you send out, or don't send out, through verbal and written communications.  This house also governs relationships with Siblings, so you may expect improvements in this area of your life and family as well.

4th House: House & Home
DIAMOND
If you've had goals related to House and Home, this season you will meet those goals.  Whether looking for a new home, a new roommate, a marriage partner to inhabit your home with you, or meeting goals for renewal and renovation, yes, it will happen for you this season and will happen in your home.  A grand energy clearing is taking place around the Home space in general, and if you've done your work diligently clearing the energy within and around your Home, positive results and goals will be reached sooner than later.  Learn to recognize a Spiritual Test when one is upon you: are you being bullied in some way, causing you to feel compelled to leave your home?  Remember, you have a right to live in Peace in your own home.  Diamond encourages you to Stand Your Ground both physically and verbally, and protect Peace both inside and outside of your cherished home space.

5th House: Creativity, Luck, Leisure
DEEP TEAL
Singles, this is your season to align with your beloved Soulmate.  For those already aligned with a Soulmate, you'll experience the most Luck and Good Fortune when your Soulmate is close by.  You'll also craft a few creative plans and projects by putting your heads together.  Outings and excursions as a couple are favored, even if just as friends or out for a romantic date on the town.  Pay careful attention to the energy around you and your Soulmate when out and about, as you may notice a series of unusually fortunate events unfolding in your favor, as though the Universe is rolling out a Golden Carpet upon which for you two to walk together.  Set your pride in Independence aside; this season's focus is on the manifestation power of coupleship.  For in the eyes of the Universe, no person is meant to walk a life journey alone.

6th House: Health & Daily Habits
BURGUNDY
Past Life Regressions and Meditations are favored for maintaining optimum health levels this season, while understanding how Past Life energies, karma, situations, and influences affect your health will be different for everyone.  Adversity is a sign that adverse karma from a past life is being resolved.  Luck and Good Fortune are signs that positive karma from past lives has finally caught up to you, in a Pay It Forward sort of way.  Burgundy corresponds to the psychic/subconscious layer of the Root Chakra, where our deepest existential memories and desires are stored and carried forth into subsequent lifetimes.  Your best Health medicine this season is to make amends with those you have wronged in past lives, and continue working to manifest good energy and good karma through building positive, productive experiences in this lifetime.

7th House: Relationships, Partnerships
NEW GREEN
New Love takes root and begins to show signs of growth, however you are cautioned not to jump to conclusions just yet about where your relationship is destined to go.  New Relationships and Partnerships are sprouting up everywhere!  You may have planted seeds for relationship manifestation in the recent past, but so did everyone else.  Wait out this season and allow your new relationships to mature a bit before deciding which partnership opportunityis most prosperously aligned for you.  Be willing to sort out past life influences before they manifest as karmic entanglements, understanding that familiarity and similarity are powerful energetic forces which draw together partners who have past life karma to resolve, once the honeymoon period has passed.  Let Love Grow this season, and show you which direction it wants to go, rather than trying to turn a new partnership into something more than it really is.

8th House: Energy Exchange with Others
BEIGE
Take a relaxed, neutral approach to all interpersonal exchanges, especially where negotiation is involved.  You may not get what you want, but you will get what you need this season, as long as your approach includes the wants, needs, and welfare of others beyond just yourself.  Charitable donations of time, energy, and money are favored, so keep the Pay It Forward concept in mind during every encounter and interaction which involves yourself and one or more people.  Taking a competitive or deceptive approach to both financial and sexual interactions is highly discouraged; under the powerful influence of Saturn in Sagittarius, deceptive agendas do not stay hidden for very long.  Those who are only looking out for themselves or prospering at the expense of others will be swiftly corrected by Saturn's fairness-minded influence.

9th House: Spirituality, Global Matters, Long-Distance Travel
PEACH
Long-distance trips and travel abound and the destination is youth: younger lovers receive visits and admiration from older partners seeking energetic and spiritual revitalization by tapping into the fountain of youth.  Global Matters revolve around youth and young adults; spirituality takes on a more youthful approach, too, as heavy, doom-and-gloom spiritual topics are set aside in favor of exploring a more light-hearted approach to all things spiritual and unseen.  What may be perceived as Immaturity may be Innocence in disguise, so be careful not to judge the Innocent as incapable or incompetent.  This season we are encouraged to See Life through the Eyes of a Child, let go of old, heavy baggage and relationship energy, and dive into the fountain of youth to experience spiritual revitalization.  You may be considered old and wise by physical age, but remember, your soul is ageless and timeless.  Spending time around younger people, donating money to youth-focused charities, and taking a more positive approach to your personal spiritual path are recommended.

10th House: Career
AQUAMARINE
Flexibility and Flow are Career themes for the season as work-related activities may have you traveling short distances on short notice.  Transitions, changes, and happenings in and around the workplace will be frequent and common; try not to let what is out of your control bother or unground you in any way.  Release the need to control your work schedule, as your boss or clients will determine where you need to be, and when.  Get used to an unstructured work schedule and work environment, for this fluid energy will permeate your Career sector all season long.  Be flexible, go with the flow, and be sure to show up on time when you are asked to.  Always have a back-up plan, just in case!  An impromptu day off or office closing will allow for an extra day of rest, relaxation, and personal time spent doing what you enjoy doing.

11th House: Community, Groups, Friendships
NEW GREEN
Seeds of Love sowed in the recent past are sprouting up around your Community, within Friendships, and among Group interactions in your life.  New Friendship bonds are beginning to show signs of familiarity and reciprocal enjoyment, while a shift to new socializing routines is becoming more comfortable for you and others involved.  No need to try, simply be for now.  Your own personal growth cycle continues, manifesting outwardly as growth in your current social circles.  Many experience a subtle pull toward or yearning ​​for what was recently lost or left behind; New Green asks you to stay focused upon newness and nurturing new energies in your life rather than reaching backwards for what is now complete.  Allow the New You to spring forth and be present, especially while out and about in the world.  Prosper the New, and weed out the old, is the message of New Green in the 11th House.

12th House: Subconscious, Psyche, Hidden Influences
​HOT PINK
You're feeling Motivated, but not sure exactly why, or how to apply your Motivation.  Or perhaps you feel Agitated, but not sure the source of the agitation.  Motivation and Agitation are prompting you to get moving again, on things that matter  most to you.  Best not to share with others what you're up to, rather follow your Inner Compass toward that which Attracts you most.  This season's theme of "Gatekeepers" means you'll meet a series of important people along your journey of personal achievement, although you may *only* know them for one season, and one season only.  Let people be!  Focus on yourself and what Motivates you.  What is meant to align is already aligning naturally, according to your current state of vibration.  Simply put: For best results, move toward that which motivates you, move away from that which Agitates you.
