Last week was a wonderful mix of focus on the social and on myself. When Mercury approached the T-Square with Uranus, Pluto and Jupiter involved, things got a little more intense, and the energies got dialed up mentally... No wonder when we consider the planets involved ;-)
This week's headline items: the New Moon in Aries becomes exact on Monday late evening; a long-term Jupiter/Pluto aspect becomes exact (again) on Thursday afternoon; Saturn's station intensifies on Saturday (how perfect is that, lol). Mercury begins to slow down (station) on Sunday -- preparing to come to a halt and starting its retrograde phase -- and Venus (already in retrograde) re-enters Pisces on Sunday evening.
There will also be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday morning (for almost 4 hours), Wednesday morning (for a little over 3.5 hours), Thursday evening (for 17.5 hours), and Sunday late morning (for a little over 3.5 hours).
Monday (March 27th) is a big day! The Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces until 10:11am EDT.
Monday at 6:19am EDT, we enter a 4-hour Moon void of course (VoC).that lasts until 10:11am EDT. We are pulled in two quite different directions: On the one hand, a desire for inner silence, emotional oneness, and creativity flowing through us... And on the other, a desire for focused exploration and cautious expansion...
Use this intuitive time to make adjustments and find creative solutions when it comes to these energies. As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don't start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan your Monday morning ahead of time ;-)
Monday at 10:11am EDT, the Moon moves into pioneering, fast-pacedAries, where it will journey until Wednesday late morning. Life is an adventure, we're more open to new ideas, and have great enthusiasm for new projects. Patience is certainly not our strong suit at this time, but we can decide quickly, and act immediately.
Our independence and dynamism are important to us right now, so we may find it hard to be disciplined or accept advice at this time; in general, our responses to others tend to be more assertive or even aggressive. If you find your foot tapping, try hitting the gym, or finding other ways to burn off the body's excess energy.
Monday early afternoon,an opportune Mars/Neptune aspect becomes exact at 12:44pm EDT.We started to feel this aspect from last Friday on (March 24th), it will be strong until this Thursday (March 30th). This gives us the opportunity to take actions that are in alignment with our dreams and ideals. This is also an opportunity for boundaries to dissolve -- to open and relax.
Creative or spiritual activities might be a good fit with this planetary connection. We may feel the need to daydream or inspire others. What might it mean, to take "inspired action"? What might show up in the world? What if you allowed the Universe to co-create with you?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 10-15 degrees of Taurus, Pisces, Capricorn or Cancer? If so, you may be more aware of this opportunity. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries or Pisces (Mars is the ruler of Aries; Neptune rules Pisces)
And lastly, (the most important part of Monday's forecast) theNew Moon in Aries becomes exact at 10:57pm EDT. The Moon aligns with the Sunin 7.5 degrees of Aries. This is the beginning of a new Moon cycle; anything brand-new started in the next two weeks has the chance to get off to a great start. Also feel free to watch my New Moon video on the subject
With the New Moon in fast-paced, enthusiastic, courageous Aries, we are asked to connect to our personal goals and get very clear on what we want to create for the next 28 days. This is an action-packed energy with the focus on ourselves. We tend to do first and think later -- we have a tremendous amount of energy and want to sprint.
Here are some questions you can ask yourself for this New Moon: Where can I approach my life with "beginner's mind"? What do I want to create in this "now moment"? What if I were to tap into my inner courage and passion for life -- right here, right now?
Mars (the ruler of Aries), is currently in Taurus, sextiling Neptune in Pisces. This aspect is asking us to create a solid relationship with ourselves and allow for our inner divinity (Source/God) to guide us. We are encouraged to value what we have to offer.
This is also a cosmic message about relating to the physical plane (and ourselves) in a loving, kind manner -- one that honors this planet, this body, this life. Living in the present moment and trusting our intuition... That's the way to go ;-)
We are also being asked to slow down and focus on quality over quantity, sustainability over novelty, ease over force. Questions you can ask yourself here: How can I generate and protect life and this planet? How can I inspire confidence and have a healthy relationship to my physical and energetic/feeling Self? What if I loved myself 5% more every day? What actions could I take to connect my physical self to my "soul-self"?
Mars in Taurus trines Pluto in Capricorn (exact on April 6th). This combo is a "mutual support system" when it comes to manifesting something real — in other words: tangible, sustainable, meaningful. When we are more confident about what we have to offer, and can communicate it clearly, we feel more empowered and able to build something of value and stature — and all in alignment with our passions.
Ask yourself: If that were true for me, what would I go about "building"? What would be truly meaningful to my Soul?
The New Moon makes a conjunction to Venus in Aries, so we are invited to connect with others in a healthy way — without neglecting our own physical being, goals, and passions — this takes a strong, healthy individual. The Venus connection in Aries with the New Moon symbolizes very beautifully how both "giving" and "receiving" are essential to achieving greatness.
With Venus being retrograde, we are learning that we must first give to ourselves, so we can connect with others in a healthy way. Knowing our truth, our path, our calling is essential at this point, no matter what it may look or feel like to others… No one else knows our path -- not our partner, parents, friends, teachers... no one.
And when we know it, we must have the courage to look at it, acknowledge it, follow it. As best as you can, use this New Moon energy to follow your path courageously and without question; step into the unknown, take initiative and assert yourself!
Could you walk through that door? What might be possible if you dared to walk your path?
We also covered the Venus Retrograde in more detail in our last Forecasting Forum -- if you want to know how this planetary movement is impacting you personally, feel free to purchase the video-recording of the last webinar -- we applied the Venus and Saturn Retrograde phases to our own birth charts! Click here for more info or to purchase the recording
Mercury aligns with Uranus in Aries at the time of the New Moon, joining the T-Square that has been in place since Nov. 2016 (it involves Uranus, Pluto and Jupiter). This underlines the message that we are ready for the next big step on our path. It takes courage to leave familiar territory. Uranus symbolizes the desire for freedom, equality and most of all... progress.

Uranus in Aries, aligned with Mercury, asks us to break away from whatever keeps us from stepping up our game -- whatever keeps us in a rut. Shifts are happening everywhere. It's time to develop some courage and awareness: Where do you want to step up and out? If you made a big leap, where might you land?
Mercury in Aries is all about "Beginner's Mind": Open, eager, willing to be surprised. The fewer preconceptions we have, the more possibilities we see, and the wider the path grows. With Mercury and Uranus in alignment, this is our time to let go of "shoulds" and "needing to know all the answers".
Questions to ask yourself for the next 2 weeks: What do I see that needs changing in my life? What do I feel most passionate about? Where do I need to take a stand? What is the outcome I seek? What's my vision for everyone involved, including this planet?
Saturn in Sagittarius is stationing at the time of the New Moon (and thus exalted). This brings extra focus to our belief structures and the stories we tell ourselves. Saturn shows us where we limit ourselves, and where we need to have a more mature, realistic approach or expectations.
What belief structures no longer serve my long-term vision for life? What am I most aware of right now? What might shift if I changed my perception and took a more mature stand?
Since we will be dealing with a lot of retrograde planets this month and next, keep in mind that retrogrades are all about gaining inner clarity and connecting to the energies from within (i.e., more intuitively). This may require us to keep the focus more on ourselves (and check in with our inner compass).
It also gives us a chance to see what works (and what doesn't) in certain areas of our lives; we can take stock and look at what needs a do-over (or at least a reassessment).
We will go over the upcoming retrograde phases in more detail in the next Forecasting Forum -- if you want to know how the Mercury Retrograde and Pluto Station/Retrograde will impact you personally, feel free to join us -- we will apply what's coming up to our own birth charts.
The next Forum will be on Wednesday, April 12th at 5pm EDT/10pm BST (London-time); for more info or to register, click here
To sum it all up for this New Moon: As best as you can, honor yourself, your body, your talents. Listen to your inner voice and bring your passionate Self to the world. Remember that each of us makes this journey in our own way and in our own time. Focus on yourself, your own path, your own truth, rather than trying to convert others.
The highest expression of the Aries energy is when we lead others by example and inspiration -- others follow us because they see our courage, our enthusiasm for life, and they want to be a part of it.
The ultimate goal of this New Moon is to tap into our inner warrior — the warrior that generates and protects life, rather than exploiting and destroying it -- courageous, rather than combative, assertive without being aggressive. To learn more about additional aspects connected to this month's New Moon, please click here to watch my video.
Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in one of the following placements: 5-10 degrees of Aries, Libra, Capricorn or Cancer? If so, you may feel the effects of this New Moon more strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign inLeoorCancer(the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer).
The New Moon is also the best time to set some powerful intentions for this month's Moon cycle. This process is especially powerful with the New Moon in Aries. Intentions are best done soon after the New Moon becomes exact -- and definitely not during a Moon void of course phase.
So this month, we have two periods that are great times to set intentions: First, any time between 10:57pm Monday (March 27th) and 8:07am Wednesday, March 29th. If you aren't able to do it during that time period, wait a few hours and set them between 11:48am and 10:57pm EDT, March 29th. For more info on setting New Moon Intentions click here
Here's a few bonus questions: How can I feel more unified with others rather than more separate? What if I simply trusted my heart and my inner truth, even when life throws curveballs? What if I accepted new truths into my heart "just because"? What might humility do for me?
What am I learning about my inner resilience? What if respecting myself fully was just a decision? What attitudes do I need to eliminate to achieve greater alignment with my own humanity and my world?
Tuesday (March 28th): the Moon remains in pioneering, fast-paced Aries all day (see Monday late morning for details).
Tuesday late afternoon/early evening until Wednesday very early morning, the Moon will trigger the existing T-square (you may recall it involves Uranus in Aries, Jupiter Libra and Pluto in Capricorn).
You may find yourself wanting to move forward with new projects or ideas; if this happens organically and is something that you have been preparing for, go right ahead.
To have a better idea what this T-square is all about, I invite you to read my article on the subject. You can also email us at firstname.lastname@example.com and write "T-Square" in the subject line -- my assistant will email you the article ;-)
If you'd prefer to watch a video, I recommend some of the New Moon/Full Moon videos I've been posting since Nov. 2016. Here are the links: Click here to see a selection of videos
Wednesday (March 29th): the Moon remains in pioneering, fast-paced Aries until 11:48am EDT (see Monday late morning for details).
Wednesday at 8:07am EDT, we enter a Moon void of course (VoC). that lasts for a little over 3.5 hours, until 11:48am EDT. Use this intuitive time to connect, to meet your need for newness, and for exploring your goals in a mature and disciplined way. As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don't start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Wednesday morning ahead of time ;-)
Wednesday at 11:48am EDT, the Moon moves into steady, peaceful Taurus, where it will be until Friday early afternoon. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well. In other words: change is not our favorite thing and "rushing things" goes against our grain.
What is our favorite thing for the next two days? It's probably, slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses ;-)
Wednesday afternoon, a harmonious Mercury/Saturn aspect becomes exact at 2:16pm EDT (we started to feel this aspect from Monday on and it will be strong until Friday). During this time, it will help to interact with integrity and commitment. We can set aside unrealistic views and make concrete, practical plans, that help us explore a larger truth.
We "get to the point" -- no wasted time or words. Seeking a larger understanding, we speak our truth, but temper it with adult caution and moderation. The reality of our beliefs gets clearer and our thought processes are more realistic. It is important for us to learn something new -- with a mature attitude.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following: 24-29 degrees of Aries, Sagittarius, Leo or 0-1 degree of Taurus, Capricorn or Virgo? Or perhaps you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo or Capricorn? If so, you will likely be more blessed by this aspect.
Thursday (March 30th): the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus all day (see Wednesday late morning for details).
Thursday afternoon, the second of three challenging Jupiter/Pluto aspects becomes exact at 2:19pm EDT. This is a long-term aspect: we'vebeen feeling it since March 15th and will continue to feel it strongly until April 14th. The first exact aspect between Jupiter and Pluto was back in late November of 2016; the third Jupiter/Pluto square will become exact in August 2017.
Think back to November/December of last year: what came up for you at that time? What changes in perception did you experience? What were you able to release from your past that was holding you back from building an empowering future?
This aspect can pique our ambitions and sense of our capacity for achievement. But it might be a good idea to slow things down just a little -- we mean well, but are very likely to over-extend, or be overly optimistic.
Optimistic belief (and even blind faith) in others may cause us to take unnecessary risks that are out of alignment with our deepest desires -- and therefore not empowering for everyone involved.
That said, deep changes in our beliefs are now possible -- if we allow ourselves to let go of what's no longer working around our social structures or long-term goals. That could shift things for us -- both at the individual and social/collective levels. How have your beliefs shifted since 2007? Where did you have to let go of certain beliefs so you could feel more empowered?
We are at a turning point. Empowering others is key! Notice when you try to force your beliefs on others -- indeed, when you push too hard, in general -- the more we push, the more likely it becomes that life will push back! The fact is, humor and open-mindedness work better right now, as does connecting to whatever we feel truly passionate about.
There could be an element of disempowerment that creeps in, both with ourselves and others, so just be aware of that... It can also feel quite intense: between our long-term goals and our relationships, we could be stretched to the max. I highly recommend self-care during this time. Ask yourself: What does my "inner baby" need? How can I nurture it whilst still connecting with others or following my passions?
This is a closing square -- and as such, it is the last portion of the Jupiter/Pluto cycle that started in 28 degrees of Sagittarius back in Dec. 2007. What have you learned since then? In what ways has your perception of life expanded? What are some beliefs that are still asking to be transformed?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 16-22 degrees of Libra, Capricorn, Aries or Cancer? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Scorpio or Sagittarius (Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio, Jupiter of Sagittarius).
Thursday evening at 7:12pm EDT, we enter a 17.5-hour Moon void of course (VoC). that last until 12:40pm EDT (Friday early afternoon). This is an intuitive time; use it to bring awareness to your long-term goals and make realistic financial plans.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don't start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Thursday evening and Friday morning ahead of time ;-)
Friday (March 31st): the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus andVoC until 12:40pm EDT (see Wednesday late morning for details).
Friday at 12:40pm EDT, the Moon moves into chatty, versatile Gemini, where it will be until Sunday afternoon. For the next two days, we like to learn, connect and interact as much as possible. "Busy" feels good: connecting online, on the phone, or sharing face-to-face, preferably multi-tasking all the way... The one thing we can do without is boredom: If our mind is not engaged in some way, we might as well curl up and play dead :-)
Friday at 1:31pm EDT, Mercury changes signs fromenthusiastic, fast-paced Aries to steady, peaceful Taurus, where, due to Mercury's retrograde phase in April/May, it will journey through Taurus several times. First until April 20th and then again from May 16th until June 6th.
For the next 3 weeks, our thinking shifts gears: we want to connect to others in a realistic, down-to-earth way and we "say it like it is". We appreciate common sense; we rely on our senses when it comes to processing information.
A well-developed sense of color, smell, and touch are characteristic of this Mercury position, so as long as Mercury is in Taurus, we will be drawn towards the "tasteful" in the realm of the five senses. We are more likely to have a no-nonsense approach to decision-making, and our ideas are often very practical and useful at this time.
When it comes to learning, we prefer demonstrations, concrete answers, and basic concepts for the next 3 weeks. We learn best when we see real-world uses for the theories we are trying to absorb. We simply process information better when we can personalize it ("what use is it to me?") and attach it to the practical world.
Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus? If so, you may feel more talkative during this time. Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini or Virgo? If so, you may need to slow down and "smell the roses" ;-)
Saturday (April 1st): Moon remains in chatty, versatile Geminiall day (see Friday early afternoon for details).
Saturday all day (especially in the morning and towards the evening), if you set Intentions Monday night, Tuesday or Wednesday -- after the New Moon became exact -- today will be the best time to take relevant actions. If you wrote your intentions down, go back and take another look at what came through intuitively. If you didn't write anything down, get quiet for a moment and check in with yourself: What actions are calling to me?
Also on Saturday, the Saturn station intensifies until April 10th."Stationing" is when a planet moves more slowly through the sky. When a planet stations, its energy becomes more "exalted"; in the case of Saturn, this means we all feel the need to more fully face what is currently so, our actual reality.
Saturn has to do with doing what needs to be done -- so we can fully understand the practical implications of our reality, and the consequences of our past actions. Saturn also represents our structures, responsibilities, commitments and ability to "do" life, on life's terms.
As spirit beings in a physical world, it's best to observe the laws of the physical world. The sooner we learn to "play by the rules", the easier life gets. Saturn also represents time and the "domain" of time: growing up, maturing, understanding our limitations, setting healthy boundaries with others, living with integrity, being authentic and truthful, being serious and focused on building something of value to society.
Saturn is our teacher. If you had a cosmic teacher, what would your personal "earth class" be in, right now? Where are you being asked to look at your beliefs and became more mature? What calls for a commitment towards a larger truth? What will time do?
As best as you can during the time of the station, bring flexibility and open-mindedness to any frustrations. The station-phase will last until April 14th; and Saturn starts its 4-month retrograde on April 6th in 27.5 degrees of Sagittarius (more on that next week).
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 25-29 degrees of Sagittarius, Gemini, Virgo or Pisces? If so, you will be more affected by this station. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Capricorn, since Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn.
Sunday (April 2nd): Moon remains in chatty, versatile Geminiuntil 2:27pm EDT (see Friday early afternoon for details).
Sunday at 10:43am EDT, we enter a Moon void of course (VoC). that lasts for a little over 3.5 hours, until 2:27pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to find a balance between connecting with others, and focusing on your attitudes and perspectives towards life.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don't start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Sunday late morning and early afternoon ahead of time ;-)
Sunday at 2:27pm EDT,the Moon moves into protective, nurturing Cancer, where it will journey until Tuesday evening. With this Moon placement, we are more sensitive to what people say and therefore our feelings are more easily hurt -- so be kind to yourself and others. Self-Care is key for the next two and half days ;-)
Emotional safety is important to us as well; we like connecting to the familiar and we enjoy nurturing ourselves and others -- home and family call to us, for instance. Make sure though, that your glass is filled before letting others drink from it, otherwise you might start to feel drained and resentful.This Moon placement also starts the build-up towards the first Quarter Moon (exact on Monday afternoon).
Sunday at 8:25pm EDT:Venus, due to its retrograde motion, re-enters creative, sensitive Pisces. It will journey there until April 28th. Due to Venus's Retrograde phase, it already journeyed through Pisces from January 3rd until February 3rd. Think back to that time: How did you relate to others at that time? What came up in your relationships with others -- or in the way you related to yourself?
For the next four weeks, we have a chance to connect to other people from our compassionate heart. We may also idealize our relationships a little — we're feeling quite romantic, and hopeful that our dreams will be fulfilled.
With Venus in Pisces, our love is very accepting -- it comes as close to "unconditional" as humans can get. One way this shows up: We root for the underdog. We prefer feeling things out to planning.
As you can imagine, we may spend our money on things that don't make "sense" -- but if we heed intuition and allow for money to flow freely, we may discover that the Universe always takes care of us ;-)
Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Pisces? If so, beauty and love will enhance your life for the next three-and-a-half weeks. Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus or Libra? You may feel a strong need for romance or unconditional love -- or dream of the ideal relationship. Your finances and values may undergo the spiritual process of releasing control and trusting more to intuition and the flow of life.
Also on Sunday,Mercury starts to slow down ("station"), preparing to come to a halt next week Sunday, April 9th (when it will begin its 3-week retrograde phase). More on that next week...
For the next 14 days (until April 16th), we need to be patient with ourselves and others -- especially if there is a connection with communication or transportation, and their associated technologies. This is not the best time to start anything brand-new, especially if it contains new information that needs to be processed.
We might experience delays or misunderstandings, and things tend to feel "off" or stagnant. It might be a good idea to give yourself some extra time to get ready or travel somewhere -- especially if you intend to use public transportation or drive (For more details on Mercury Shadow Phases and Retrogrades, click here)
Some of us will feel the effects of this station more than others: those of us with Gemini or Virgo as our Sun- or Rising-Sign (Ascendant) -- and those of us with personal planets (or angles) in 0-7 degrees of Taurus, Scorpio, Leo, or Aquarius.
A head's up for next Monday (April 3rd): the Moon remains in protective, nurturing Cancer all day (see Sunday afternoon for more details). The first Quarter Moon in Cancerbecomes exact at 2:39pm EDT.More about all the details in next week's forecast ;-)

Hey everyone! It's been awhile and I'm still not back to writing full time or anything. Xewleer is still stuck in his own life's troubles and I in mine. I haven't totally abandoned this blog and will at least do these season anime previews for the people that look forward to that. Cheers!
*Diabolik Lovers – This series has actually already started airing and I really enjoyed the first episode. The premise is a traditional Otome/reverse harem genre but all the guys seem to be vampires. From what I know and all the hints, it seems that all of the guys have dark secrets and the girl may not be a normal human either.
*Log Horizon – From the creator of the Maoyuu Maou Yuusha series comes another trapped-in-a-fantasy-MMORPG anime. It seems that the popularity of SAO might start a big trend of these works being adapted/created. Knowing how good Maoyuu was, makes me pretty excited about this as it's another take on this genre (trapped in game), though without the danger of death/coma, I wonder how there will be a sense of danger. Otherwise, I'm told the story is more party-centric and isn't all just about the main protagonist.
*Outbreak Company – The plot of this one is a bit iffy and involves the protagonist being a "moe" ambassador to some other world thanks to him being such a hardcore otaku. Alot of people are saying this show is a dark horse as no one knows how it will go, but Studio Feel (responsible for Miname-ke) has proven they can do comedy well.
*IS: Infinite Stratos 2 – Sequel to one of the better harem anime in recent memory. Infinite Stratos follows Ichika in a near-future setting as he becomes the first male to be able to pilot an I.S. (Combat Exoskeleton, think Mecha) and all the girls from his past/future that fall in love with him along the way. He's dense like most harem protagonists, but the mecha combat from the first season was actually pretty good and I like most of the potential partners for him as well.
*Nagi no Asukara – Set in a universe where humanity once lived in the sea. The world has become divided as people choose to live on land or stay in the sea and this follows a bunch of kids that are forced to go to school on land. The premise seems a bit boring, but the all-Star cast has me interested and P.A. Works recent track record with RDG: Red Data Girl and Uchoten Kazoku (The Eccentric Family) gives me hope this will turn out amazing as well.
*Kill la Kill – A school fighting anime that has gotten quite a bit of buzz thanks to former-GAINAX members along with the creators of Gurren Lagaan being behind it. I'm not too fond of the art direction, but I know the studio will push out a quality product just from their portfolio.
*Sekai de Ichiban Tsuyoku Naritai! (Wanna Be the Strongest in the World) – Probably one of the big fanservice shows of the season. This focusses on a former idol that joins the realm of pro-wrestling to avenge her friend. There's big names in this show including Tomatsu Haruka (Asuna from SAO) and Eri Kitamura (Sayaka from Madoka), which is the main reason I'm watching for now.
*Daiya no A (Ace of Diamond) – A baseball anime, but one that I've heard soo many good things about. With animation powerhouses Madhouse (Redline/Summer Wars/High School of the Dead/Trigun) and Production I.G (Ghost in the Shell/Guilty Crown/Blood+/Eden of the East/FLCL/Psycho-Pass) behind it you know it will turn out well.
*Kikou Shoujo wa Kizutsukanai (Unbreakable Machine-doll) – An adaptation of a series I've been somewhat following for years. This one centers on a world where puppeteering of automatons has become big and the main character Raishin is aiming to obtain the title of "Wiseman" aka greatest puppeteer. The series' source is unfinished, which makes me a bit sad as that usually means an anime-original ending or abrupt cutoff.
*Galilei Donna – The big NoitaminA show of the season. This follows three female descendants of Italian astronomer Galileo who find themselves under attack by an unknown organization. This is leaking soo many Read or Die vibes and the fact that it's a NoitaminA (Anohana, Psychoo-PAss, Shiki, Robotics;Notes) show makes it worth keeping an eye on already.
*Magi: The Kingdom of Magic Season 2 – Sequel to the awesome first season, this show is essentially a arabian inspired fantasy and has many of the legends of that area mixed in. I'm fairly excited as I really enjoyed the first season.
*Tokyo Ravens – Normally I would be watching this show for Kitamura Eri, but the fact that I actually enjoy the source material has me excited as well. This show follows Tsuchimikado Harutora as he is pulled into the world of spirits thanks to his childhood friend Natsume.
*Kakumeiki Valvrave 2nd Season – Sequel to one of the biggest shows of this year. Valvrave is one of Sunrise's (Gundam, Code Geass etc) new mecha works and follows Tokishima Haruto as he becomes the unfortunately (or not) becomes the pilot of a Valvrave. Tons of things have kept this show from being part of Sunrise's standard mecha flare (which isn't bad either) and the fact that Code Geass write Okouchi Ichiro wrote it begins to put sense into everything. From the vampiric outbursts, body hijacks, betrayals, defections, deaths and sexual assaults; this series isn't holding back on the curveballs. Let's just hope the second season can hold up as I hear there is a big time skip awaiting our characters.
*Samurai Flamenco – NoitaminA's other show this season is a bit more experimental as it involves a male model who balances a life as a superhero and that of a model. The major piece of information that has been leaked is the anime's taglines which are: "To those 'adults' who don't want to become adults…" and "Hero will never give up, never hide, never be defeated, never accept evil."
*Miss Monochrome The Animation – Based on a Virtual Singer that appeared at one of Horie Yui's concerts. Apparently this character got popular enough and now she is getting her own mini-series. I don't think this will be any good, but it's definitely something I'm interested in watching just to see how it turns out.
*Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio ~Ars Nova~ (Arpeggio of Blue Steel) – Probably my most anticipated show of the season. The story is as follows: By 2039, the seas will rise, the lands will mostly be lost, and a global conflict will be born. The Fleet of Mist, warships surrounded by mystery and mist, will cripple the naval freedom of humanity through force, preventing any sort of safe naval travel or trade. However, one submarine, I-401, will one day defect from the terror fleet and help a lowly cadet, Gunzo Chihaya. Through the submarine's organic humanoid interface Iona, I-401 will assist humanity in fighting back against their biggest enemy, and of course the other humanoid interfaces that will taunt them along the way.
What has me interested is the idea that WWII era ships (at least in looks and names) are given form by female (Probably because all ships are referred to as female) humanoid-A.I. interfaces. The trailers for this have looked very interesting (despite the somewhat offputting CGI) and I've always enjoyed naval combat.
*Golden Time – A college setting romcom made by J.C.Staff (Index/Railgun/Henneko/Toradora/Honey and Clover), what more could I ask for? Story follows Tada Banri who has just started law school and gotten himself lost before orientation begins. He then meets and befriends a fellow freshman, Yanagisawa Mitsuo. However, Mitsuo isn't just an ordinary law student; he has run off to Tokyo in the hopes of shaking off his past, a very beautiful and seemingly "perfect" past by the name of Kaga Kouko, who's followed her childhood friend and fiancé (despite his attempts to escape) and enrolled in the same school. From the author of Toradora comes this romantic comedy about the "golden time" that is the college experience.
*Strike the Blood – 2-cour (2 Season) length series about a guy who becomes the "Fourth Primogentor" aka Most Powerful Vampire in History, and the Sword Shaman girl sent to keep him in check. The big credential this series has is that it won the Japanese Sci-Fi Rookie of the Year in 1999 award and the creator Mikumo Gakuto also created Asura Cryin' and Dantalian no Shoka.
*Kyoukai no Kanata (Beyond the Boundary) – Brought to you by Kyoto Animation (Chuuinbyou/K-On!/Clannad/Full Metal Panic/Haruhi) is a series from their internal light novel division. The story follows Kanbara Akihito, a normal-looking boy who is actually an immortal half-demon whose heritage caused him to be ostracized from his underworld peers. One day Akihito meets first-year Kuriyama Mirai when it looks like she's about to jump off the school roof. Mirai also feels isolated due to her ability to manipulate blood, which is as unique among underworlders as it is feared. Along with friend and Akihito's fellow club member Nase Mitsuki and her chronically cold older brother Nase Hiroomi, disturbing events begin to unfold after Akihito saves Mirai. I use to be skeptical of Kyo-ani when they attempted to try new genres, but after seeing Hyouka and Clannad, I have confidence, that they will be able to pull off this show which is supposed to be dark fantasy.
*COPPELION – The year is 2016. Following the meltdown of a nearby nuclear power plant in Odaiba, the Japanese government is forced to relocate its capital and evacuate Tokyo. Despite this, over 90% of Tokyo's citizens perish following the incident, and the city becomes a ghost town. Two decades later a sudden distress signal leads to the deployment of "Coppelion," a special forces unit within the Self Defense Force. Composed of three high school girls in Fukusaku Aoi, Naruse Ibara, and Nomura Taeko –all of which have been genetically engineered to withstand radiation–the girls are sent to the city to find and retrieve any survivors. Amidst a city reclaimed by nature and filled with nothing but the remnants of the past, the girls find themselves searching for people that shouldn't exist, all the while unraveling the mysteries of a land long abandoned by mankind.
One of the top 3 shows I'm looking forward to this season and I'm surprised as it seems right on the heels of the whole Fukushima disaster. I've always been interested in series that involve manmade disasters and have always thought that an after-Chernobyl anime would make a great series. From what I've seen of the source, the show will be amazing!
*Ore no Nounai Sentakushi ga, Gakuen Love Comedy wo Zenryoku de Jama Shiteiru (My Mental Multiple-Choice Power Is Completely Ruining My School Romantic Comedy) – From the absurdly long name, many will be able to guess that this is a light novel adaptation. The premise centers around Kanade Amakusa, a boy cursed with the mental power of "absolute multiple-choice"—a multiple-choice quiz will suddenly appear in his mind, and the choice he makes will become his reality. For example, he would have to choose between going nude from the waist up or the waist down in school. While in school, he is given another choice: 1) A beautiful girl will fall before him or 2) he will fall from the rooftop in female clothes.He chooses option 1, and a blonde girl named Chocolat falls before him.I think this is interesting, though the premise reminds me a bit of Date A Live's multiple choice scenes; we'll see how it goes though.
*WHITE ALBUM 2 – Sequel to the first that occurs a decade later. This one features a whole new cast (though the cast isn't as good as the first seasons') and a bit of improvements on every-front. In particular, this is likely to be the big romance centered series of the season and good news for newbies is that you don't need to have seen the first!
*Little Busters! ~Refrain~ – Sequel to the first season which I'm told was basically a prequel for this. The story is supposed to make a much darker turn and I'm excited to see where that will go. Maybe we'll reach Clannad levels of feels.
*Yozakura Quartet ~Hana no Uta~ – Another reboot of the Yozakura Quartet franchise. I have mixed feelings on the prior ones and still think that the authors other works (Baccano/Durarara!!) deserve sequels/more adaptations before this one.
*Walkure Romance – From the same people that brought us Princess Lover! comes a jousting anime about a guy who has to give up his dream of becoming a knight due to an injury. Instead he will now assist one of the many beautiful and competent girls around him in realizing their own dreams of becoming knights. I've played a bit of the game this is based on and depending where they go this could end up good or bad. There's only 1 or 2 routes I would consider good adaptations and if they pick one of those we should be in for a pleasant romance series, but if they go open ended then this will probably fall into mediocracy.
*Super Seisyun Brothers – Slice of life about 2 pairs of siblings that are friends and share an otaku lifestyle under the motto that "those of a feather should stick together." Not exactly an A ranked show, but I liked the character designs and I always have room to enjoy a good slice-of-life series.
*Neppu Kairiku Bushiroad – Bushiroad (Weiss Schwarz/Cardfight!! Vanguard) has been pushing this for awhile now and apparently it was the inspiration for the company name. Source material is by the creator of Trinity Blood and the show is a mecha-scifi set 500 years in the future.
*Kyousougiga – This series is finally getting a full-length show of its own. The sad part is that I hear the episode are a bit short. I've heard comparisons of this show to the crazyness that is FLCL and I believe that to be true.
*pupa – Horror anime about a pair of very close siblings whose already shattered lives take a turn for the horrific. Utsutsu and Yume Hasegawa are victims of domestic abuse, children who only have one another for support, but when the siblings meet a mysterious woman who warns them to go home before they "see the red butterflies and it's too late", Yume is transformed into a man-eating monster, and it's up to Utsutsu to try to protect his precious little sister. I'm not big on horror anime and I'm told the gore/cannibalistic themes in this aren't for the weak hearted, but boy am I interested. I think Ghost Hunt may be the only horror anime that ever seriously gave me some shivers and maybe this can do that too.
*BLAZBLUE ALTER MEMORY – I've always been of the opinion that the Blazblue games would make great animes. The story of the original at least (haven't played the sequels) was what kept me playing it and now that I can get it retold in anime form; I'm ecstatic! Let's hope more games get anime adaptations of their stories in the future as some of the ones in recent memory have been quite good (Valkyria Chronicles/Persona 4).
*Yuusha ni Narenakatta Ore wa Shibushibu Shuushoku o Ketsui Shimashita (I, Who Didn't Become a Hero, Reluctantly Decided to Find a Job.) – RomCom set in a fantasy-ish setting. The story revolves around a boy named Raul Chaser who did not become a hero because the demon lord was defeated just before his hero exams. With his dreams crushed, Raul is now working at a magic shop in the capital. One day, a girl named Phino Bloodstone comes in looking for a part-time job and it turns out she is the former demon lord's daughter! So begins the fantasy work comedy of a former hero-in-training and the daughter of the demon lord.
TOP 5 (Non-Sequels)
Below I have detailed my top 5 and included a PV or CM for each of them.
Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio ~Ars Nova~ (Arpeggio of Blue Steel)
Galilei Donna
Golden Time
Outbreak Company
Golden Time and Outbreak Company are very close behind the top 3. Note that I am still watching every show (mostly) and those marked with YES are just ones I am FOR SURE following and there are also sequels I may enjoy above my top 5 picks. I just don't like to include sequels when doing my most anticipated shows.

I don't know how often you call your representatives in Congress to voice your opinion on issues that you care about-but it's something I do all the time.
I just got off the phone with a wonderful gal in my representative's office in D.C. & am feeling very good.
The bill (and amendment) I dearly needed to see defeated-was. My calls and letters and efforts were done for now.
It occurred to me as I got off the phone how good that felt to be a part of and it made me wonder-how often do you call your representatives?
You know they work *for you* right? And that they are accountable to you...?
If you haven't ever done it-I really suggest it.
It's empowering, it's rewarding and it's your right as an American.
Use it wisely of course-I use it to advocate for those who cannot speak for themselves-and I'm grateful for the ability to be able to do so.
Think about it-it's the American thing to do.

Many entrepreneurs enter the global market for a variety of reasons. Why is it important for entrepreneurs to learn to think globally? What are the advantages and disadvantages of entrepreneurial ventures to move into the global marketplace? What must entrepreneurs consider when entering the global market?
From the research a global entrepreneur is an individual, entity, or organization that seeks out and conducts new and innovative business activities outside of their home borders. These activities could be virtual, fiscal, the acquisition of additional ventures and properties, of others. On the home page of The Global Entrepreneur Institute it is stated that we are living in a world where all major business functions in the value chain are "highly globalized and deeply integrated". It is projected that by 2027 80 % of the world's gross domestic product will be sold across international borders and multinational business activity will grow from today's approximately $5 trillion to $70 trillion. (www.blog.gcase.org) This is good enough reason for any entrepreneur to begin to think globally, but it takes more than that to actually be successful at going global.
The benefits to global typically favor the smaller enterprise's over large, and can be looked at in several areas: the orientation of the strategic, financial, and production activities and goals. Strategically it allows us to enhance domestic competiveness, increase global brand building and market capability, as well as capitalizing on the growth potential of new and undiscovered markets. Financially it allows us to uncover new markets that find new customers which will serve to increase profits and sales. In becoming more visible and increase the potential number of investors, as well as capitalize on tax benefits. Production related strategies include cutting costs through global outsourcing and guaranteeing the supply of raw materials. Going global allows us improve the purchasing power for those customers buying locally and may extend the lifecycle for our current products and/or services.
Some of the cautions: If you are going to go global you must first have a clear understanding of the culture. Most of us live within a little 60 mile radius and know nothing of the differences in our own cultures that exist the United States, much less that of other countries. When we go global we must have a way to communicate verbally and in written form many different languages. There may be travel involved, and that will take time and expenditures. Not everything can be done virtually. In order to learn more sign up to The Global Entrepreneur Institute. They have some great info as well as free courses.

We all know that a singular subject takes a singular verb and a plural subject takes a plural verb, but what about a compound subject?
There are a lot of ways to say "because," including "due to," "since" and "as." Bonnie Mills sorts out the best ways to use these words.
Subject-verb agreement means you pair singular subjects with singular verbs and plural subjects with plural verbs. Basic subject-verb agreement comes naturally for most native English speakers, but certain combinations can trip up even seasoned writers. Some tips.
Here are examples of the correct ways to use comprise, compose, and constitute.

It's hard to stay focused day in and day out. But sometimes all we need is a bit of change to reinvigorate our minds. Ok, ok, so we can't all fly to Fiji and enjoy the ocean breeze for a day. But there are little things we can do to incorporate a change of scenery into our work day. Here are our favorites:
- After lunch, work from the company cafeteria for an hour.
- Try an exercise ball or a standing desk for a day.
- Add a new plant or dim light to your desktop.
- Bring your laptop to a foyer, lobby, or another seating area at work.
- Switch desks with a coworker for an afternoon.
- Encourage holding your next meeting at an off-site location.
- If the weather is nice, head outside to a bench or table.
- Work from home for a day.
- Invest in some quality headphones and try a new soundtrack for your work day.
- Clean up your desk space so it's free from clutter.

About this Costume
- Construction Details:
The tutu itself is 15 yards of hand-gathered black netting. I gave it ten layers instead of four because I wanted it to look thick and feathery. Chira wanted to use a layer of silver sparkle tulle for her Odile Tutu, so I got some gold for Kraehe so we could both have that additional sparkle. I dagged the edges to make it look more feathered. The plate and bodice are both black bridal satin, and I hand sequined it all on the flight and the entire night before the con. I unfortunately was not able to finish sequining and beading because I had too many school obligations, but I had already worked too hard on the costume and was so looking forward to wearing it that I just really needed it to look PRESENTABLE before the con because I was GOING TO WEAR IT, DAMNIT, so I just did the outline of the designs on the plate. I'll fill them in and outline them with beads later. I glued the feathers on the inside of the bodice because I didn't have time to hand sew them all, but I will probably sew them down when I continue work on this costume. The tiara was made from beading wire and some larger round gold beads and red teardrop beads.
- Personal Thoughts:
- MAHOU SHOUJO STATUS. I wore three layers of varying kinds of false eyelashes to get the closest-to-perfect Princess Kraehe eyelashes as I could, even though I'm not usually one for wearing falsies with costumes. I'm really glad I got some darker red contacts, though, because they really made the look. I felt so good about myself wearing this and got so many compliments. I know it's not fully completed yet, but I am definitely proud of this, and I'm so glad I finally did it because I've been dreaming of making this since before I was actually a cosplayer.
This costume was actually cheaper than I would have expected--ordering all the materials and accessories cost me about $150, and I think about 42 hours has gone into the process so far, though I definitely plan on finishing the beading and sequining in some free time.
Wig Details
- Styling Notes
- Just cut the bangs up a bit! Otherwise it was perfect out of the bag.

Planning gives everyone a chance to protect themselves, their property and to find peace before the storm knowing you did all you could to prepare before the storm arrives. The 2018 Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, with a month and a half left before the season end let's all hope we've seen the last of the major storms hit land. This year the south experienced two major hurricanes that did hit our nation, and the devastation is still being accessed but what you the individual needs to be concerned most is your safety first and a plan for a quick recovery. Here are a few tips to help you through this difficult time as you begin your recovery: Safety should be your priority – as well as your mental and physical well-being. The road ahead will be challenging, and you will need to make sure you are up to the task before you can begin to get your home, your community and your life back to normal. Take good care of your health – set priorities and pace yourself, be sure and get enough rest and eat well. Take caution when trying to go back home – listen to the authorities, they are skilled in knowing when it will be safe for your return. Keep in mind; many hazards remain after a hurricane, such as flood water, unstable structures, downed electric wires, contaminated water, gas leaks, broken glass, and slippery floors. Be sure and have proper personal protective equipment – before you begin to assess your damage, your safety always comes first. Wear sturdy work boots and gloves. Also be sure to wash often with soap and clean water when working in debris. Document all damage for your insurance claim – you will be asked to identify the damage, lost or stolen property for its replacement. It's best to have before and after photos for this purpose. The records you created ahead of time, will make it easier to assess damage by comparing before and after documentation. Hopefully, you created this list before the storm and had it in a secure file. Whether, it is a safety deposit box or put into a secure cloud-based file system the choice is yours. But you will be glad you prepare ahead of the storm. Even if you didn't keep a record of your inventory – continue to take photos after the storm to show the damage before you begin to clean up and remove items. This should include any debris on your property brought in by the storm. Save all your receipts – document the purpose of each purchase, doing so will help with your insurance claim going forward. The more information and proof you can provide the more likely you are to be reimbursed. File a claim as soon as possible – use your agent as a resource and let them help advocate for you. Discuss your policies to ensure you are getting the appropriate benefits of your coverage. And have your agent help prioritize your case. Disasters are disturbing experiences – it brings emotional turmoil, financial stress, loss of home, business or personal property. It is vital to seek crisis counseling if you or someone you love is experiencing issues with post-traumatic stress due to the storm. The quicker they get help, the sooner they can put it behind them. Following these tips can help make your recovery less stressful and progress more quickly. Keep in mind, throughout this process you are not alone. You will find kindness in your neighbors, community, and strangers. We saw it in the past when disaster strikes. The generosity, and compassion of the American people come together to lend a hand. People want to help, let them.
