This month’s horoscope by Phoebe with quotes by Osho: “This moment is very critical in the history of man, in the history of human consciousness, a great jump. Either man dies or man becomes new – that is the only choice…”
Phoebe would like to point out that we all have all the twelve zodiac signs in our horoscope – some with planets in them and some are empty – meaning some of the themes addressed are in the foreground and some in the background of our lives. “I recommend readers to read all twelve quotes, not just their star sign, for a wider perspective on the themes of the month,” she says.

Mood of the Month
“This moment is very critical in the history of man, in the history of human consciousness, a great jump. Either man dies or man becomes new – that is the only choice… Either the old mind wins and there will be a global suicide and humanity will disappear from the earth, or the new mind will be born, and that’s what the effort here is. And humanity will take a new direction – the new man will be born!”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 2
Aries
“Will is the source of ego. Let it be understood deeply. All is possible if the will is dissolved into God’s will… but if you want to do it at will, then you will become more and more egoistic. And that’s what happens… Mind has great powers, but to use the powers of the mind is to prevent yourself from going higher than the mind – you will get stuck there… You will be lost, you will never move beyond that. Get out of the world and get out of the mind too!”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 2
Taurus
“Each moment life is new and you have to respond from your inner newness, and you have to be available to the new as the new. And you have to respond, not out of your knowledge, but out of your present awareness. Only then life works… If your life is not working, remember it is the ego that is hindering, the mechanical has encroached on the organic. To be free from the mechanical is to be in God because it is to be in the organic unity of existence!”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 3
Gemini
“If you can understand it, then it must be wrong. When you don’t understand only then is there a possibility that some truth has been said. And if you become angry then certainly some truth has been said, and some stone has been thrown into your sleep and you have become disturbed… Because I am saying the truth, because I am being the truth – it is very natural.”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 2
Cancer
“Rather than being intrigued by Jesus’ miracles, perform a miracle… Go into yourself. That is the only miracle. Go into your fear of death and go on deeper into it, and see where it is, what it is. Watch it… You have to go trembling, you have to go with fear, you have to descend the staircase of death. You have to go to the very end… You are not the body, you are not even the mind, you are just pure life energy. You are a witness. In that witnessing is the real miracle!”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 2
Leo
“Ego is the basic problem that anybody who is searching for his real self has to face. Now it cannot be countered by anything outside. No remedy is going to help, no medicine is going to help. No method is going to help… There is a way but it cannot be imposed from the outside, and the way is not like a remedy. The way is clarity, transparency, to look through and through, to watch how the ego functions, to see its subtle games!”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 3
Virgo
“If you feel that you have done something wrong then it is up to you. Don’t do it again. Forget the past and don’t go on repeating it… That is the whole message of all the Buddhas and all the Christs and all the Krishnas. Forget the past , if you understand, don’t do it again. That’s enough. There is no punishment, there is no judgement… The only thing that can be done is your consciousness can be raised.”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 1
Libra
“The man who is against sex is below sex. He has fallen below sex, he is obsessed with sex… The man who is above sex, the man who has become free of sex avoids nothing… And the man who has gone beyond sex will look at a beautiful woman, and the beautiful woman will not remind him of sex but of God – because all reminds him of God. A beautiful flower reminds him of God, a beautiful face reminds him of God. In fact, all reminds him of God.”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 3
Scorpio
“Verily, verily I say unto you before Abraham was I am” (John 8, verse 58)
“Go deep inside yourself and look into your fear of death. There is no resurrection. But, if you go deep into your fear of death, it disappears and with the fear of death death disappears. Then you know you are eternal life. There is no resurrection. Resurrection is possible only if first you die. You never die. Nobody has ever died. Death is a myth!”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 2
Sagittarius
“Never become a Christian. If you want to become something become a Christ. Never become a Buddhist. If you want to become something become a Buddha. Otherwise you will remain unaware of the reality of Jesus… If you are a Christian you will never understand Jesus. Your very Christianity will be an obstruction, a hindrance… Only if you are a nobody can you meet with Christ or Buddha or Krishna, and these are different names for the same state of consciousness!”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 2
Capricorn
“If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all” (The Gospel of Mark 9, verse 35)
“To be the last means all comparison has been dropped, all competition has been dropped, all aggression, arrogance has been dropped. One starts enjoying this moment – the peace, the bliss of it, the benediction of it. One is in sheer delight because one can breathe, because one can see the flowers, because one can watch the birds. One can listen to the song of the birds or the rain falling on the roof, or the smell of the wet earth – small things!”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 3
Aquarius
“Even those who are your friends are your enemies because they are also fighting for the first place, as you are fighting. How can you be friendly? With the ego there is no possibility of friendship. Then friendship is just a mask. The real nature of life is that of the jungle – the big fish goes on eating the small fish. Even if you pretend to be friendly that is just show, strategy, diplomacy. Nobody can be a friend here unless the ego disappears!
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 3
Pisces
“Imagination can create many things and you can live in imagination. And in your imagination you will feel that it is happening, and it happens too!… It can create a dream almost as real as possible. That’s what is happening to LSD people… Imagination cannot help. It can only give you beautiful dreams, but they are dreams. When they are there they look very real. When they are gone you are lost in darkness!”
Osho, I Say unto You, Vol 2, Ch 2
