Taken to the extreme, however, this could create a loner who is too self-reliant and misses out on the opportunity to benefit from others&#8217; support.<\/p>\n<p>Aquarius archetype comes after Capricorn, in order to open up the psyche to the transformative potential of group synergy. &nbsp; Where our own efforts may not be enough, a truly great accomplishment or advancement is possible through the formation of a supportive group, working toward shared goals.&nbsp; Such group is usually called a Mastermind group.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>The Mastermind Group: Its Definition and Purpose<\/b><\/div>\n<p>The concept of a Mastermind group was introduced by Napoleon Hill, who wrote the self-help classic <i>Think and Grow Rich<\/i>.&nbsp; Hill defined the Mastermind group as a &#8220;coordination of knowledge and effort of two or more people, who work toward a definite purpose, in the spirit of harmony.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you have a significant goal you&#8217;re working toward, then most likely you&#8217;ll benefit from the support of a Mastermind group.&nbsp; Here are some examples of the purpose of a Mastermind group:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To become more successful: small business entrepreneurs could form a Mastermind group in order to support each other in building and developing their businesses.&nbsp; Another common example is that of an investment club.<\/li>\n<li>To become more healthy: people form a Mastermind group in order to lose weight, or to support each other in combating a certain illness or working through other health condition.<\/li>\n<li>To become happier: there are groups that work on Happiness Project and other uplifting programs in order to increase their enjoyment of life.<\/li>\n<li>To increase knowledge &amp; skill: Toastmasters, a book club, a writer&#8217;s club, etc.&nbsp; <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are many benefits to forming an alliance with a like-minded, supportive group of people:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You could pool your knowledge and resources together, ending up with much more than you could gather on your own.&nbsp; <\/li>\n<li>You can keep each other accountable through regular meetings.<\/li>\n<li>You can support and inspire each other through tough times.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Your Horoscope and the Mastermind Group <\/b><\/div>\n<p>Astrologically speaking, such group synergy is invaluable in that <b><i>other people&#8217;s energy and perspective will tend to offset the imbalance you have in your natal chart.<\/i><\/b> <\/p>\n<p>For instance, my horoscope lacks an opposition aspect.&nbsp; As opposition aspect frequently is needed to establish a full perspective on any issue (as in &#8220;looking at things from both sides&#8221;), this means I have a tendency to lose sight of wider perspective without wise counsel and feedback from others.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I have a lot of conjunctions in my chart, which suggests that I have a strong drive and an ability to concentrate my effort.&nbsp; Combined with the lack of an opposition aspect, this means I could drive very fast toward a wrong direction, unless given proper feedback from others.&nbsp; So for someone like me, a Mastermind group support is essential in professional or personal growth.<\/p>\n<p>Another example is a lack of certain element or a modality in a horoscope: If your horoscope lacks emphasis in the Fire element (Aries, Leo and Sagittarius), for instance, you may need the help of others in order to find the necessary inspiration.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If your horoscope does not have a Fixed emphasis (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius), you may need the Mastermind group to help keep you accountable, so that you can finish the projects you start on time.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>This Month&#8217;s Challenge: Form Your Own Mastermind Group<\/b><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">Are you serious about the goals you wrote down during the <a href=\"http:\/\/holisticastrologer.blogspot.com\/2011\/01\/happiness-project-10-capricorn-new-moon.html\">Capricorn New Moon<\/a>?&nbsp; Do you feel that a support of a Mastermind group could help you accomplish your goals faster, and in a better way?&nbsp; If so, I challenge you to form your own Mastermind group during this New Moon.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">It does not have to be a huge endeavor.&nbsp; Your Mastermind group could be composed of just two people &#8211; it will still have a powerful effect, so long as you both remain committed to your own goals, and in supporting each other.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">In my case, my life coach is definitely a part of my Mastermind group.&nbsp; I could also use some more support in the area of astrological writing and consulting practice &#8211; so God willing, I&#8217;ll be able to form another Mastermind group composed of people that share these goals.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">Do you already have a Mastermind group, or are you motivated to find or create one?&nbsp;
