All Signs
It's an unusually powerful week ahead. The Sun has just moved into Scorpio. Next Wednesday, a Lunar Eclipse (Full Moon in Taurus) coincides with a lovely aspect between fiery Mars and big Daddy Pluto. This follows another sweet aspect between fair Venus and stern Saturn on Tuesday. (Did everybody get dessert?) Suffice to say we can all make a lot of headway in areas that are important to us. The door is open, the coffee is on, and we're open for business! All energies are supportive. It's all systems go. Don't hesitate about what you want to do. For every action there's an equal and opposite criticism - this just goes with the territory. No big deal.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
It's almost shocking how much you can get done now. People are cooperative at work. You see that long-range planning can pay off. In fact, you can secure your home base in a better way, and at the same time, stabilize where you work. In part, this is done through improved partnerships and dealings with others. What you learned recently through friends and partners empowers you to profit from new ways of dealing with people. Work with groups and individuals to make improvements to yourself and your environment. The results you get will astound you. (I kid you not.) Satisfaction guaranteed, or your money back!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You're making long-term plans about matters connected to your children, romance, show business, professional sports, and possibly even vacations. But then you always were a planner. You love your creature comforts, and you prefer them in a stable, domestic environment. (Land, antiques, a beautiful home.) You might not have the wine cellar of your dreams, but you're thinking about it! Changes at work will ultimately be for the better. Expect a positive outcome and keep pushing for it. Resources, support, equipment, and even funding will suddenly materialize so that you can accomplish more by working with others. You have a better understanding of how people react to you and vice versa.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
You're doing some serious, long-range planning about how to improve a family situation, or where you live in some way. This will all fall nicely in place because you're willing to do your homework and get the facts. Plus you're gung ho to work hard now. (Personally, even though hard work never killed anyone, I don't like to get too close to it.) The effort you put out now will help you realize goals connected with romance, children, the arts, theatre, the entertainment world, sports and the hospitality industry. You can make fantastic strides! But here's how to get the best results: make sure your efforts improve the lives of others as well as your own.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
This is a great week for deals, negotiations, signing contracts and having important discussions with siblings, relatives and neighbours. It's not your style to directly barge into anything like a bull in a china shop. You like to hover a bit on the fringe checking out the vibes before you leap. (You're not stupid and foolhardy.) All this missionary work pays off. You know what you want; and you know what you're prepared to settle for. Others can help you make big improvements on the home scene now. People will assist you in moves and renovations. You can make improvements to plumbing, recycling, restoring and refinishing things. (One man's Mede is another man's Persian.)
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Your attempt to make financial plans for the future is excellent. You will get a future payoff! It's easy to sell, influence, teach, market and write at this time. You instinctively know the best approach. Relations with siblings, neighbours, and daily colleagues will improve enormously now. Your confusion about dealing with partners or family members will not hinder this. Trust your moneymaking impulses. Join forces with others. The groundwork you lay now will really bring you benefit in the future. And if what you do benefits others as well as yourself, your payoff will be even greater! (I like that part.)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
People who are older or more experienced than you will really help you now if you let them. Be open to learning whatever you can. One of the things you can find out from others is how to improve your cash flow in terms of earning money and spending it. (Learning how to spend money wisely is just as much an art as learning how to make it.) Conversations with someone (perhaps a sibling) are disappointing or confusing. Nevertheless, you can spend money now in a way that really improves your life. If you can improve the lives of others as well, bonus all around! (The benefits of Plutonian actions always increase if as many as possible are involved.)
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Gads! Life is improving so beautifully, isn't it? (Pleasure is so seductive! More, more!) It's important to know that you can really improve your body and your health right now. Any effort you make through exercise, diet, and yoga --even jogging in front of your fridge -- will bring surprising and quick payoffs. In fact, if you work to improve the surroundings of others, your own will improve even more so. It's kind of a Catch-22 that works in your favour. Secret love affairs are marvelously juicy. (Your sign is a fantastic lover.) Just be careful you don't spend too much money in an extravagant way.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
The Sun and Mercury are in your sign. You're very energized and powerful right now. Discussions with more experienced or older people are beneficial. These interactions will help you, especially in the future. Collaborative effort with others (possibly in the government, or hospitals, or prisons or large institutions) can bring about meaningful changes now - and these changes are for the better. Furthermore, the more far-reaching this benefit is, the better it will work for you! It's entirely possible that you will improve, enhance and even introduce new ways of making money. Great. As Forest Gump said -that will be one less thing to worry about.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
A curious combination of influences exists now for your sign: in one way, you need increasing time alone to be by yourself. (You can work well by yourself now and you prefer to do so.) Yet in another way, whatever you do in conjunction with others (groups or partnerships) can really accomplish a lot and truly improve things in some way. Go figure. You're pulled in two directions. People might look to you for advice. Older, more established people can help you. Some of you will fall in love with your boss or a VIP. (This could be handy. After all, one of the best laborsaving devices is a rich partner.) The main thing to keep in mind is that you can make greater strides working towards your goals now. Your new plans are a big improvement over your old ones.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
This is a very good time for you. Wonderful opportunities exist now to improve your career, your reputation in your community, and to promote your status in some way. Your ambition pays off now. Because of your efforts to improve things for others, people admire you! In a way, you're the hero of the day. Go forward with travel plans as well as plans for education or further training. These will have long-term benefits for you. Your friendships and your interaction with groups are particularly rewarding now. It's satisfying to see what you can accomplish. You're not trying to save the world before bedtime, but you're doing a lot, and you deserve recognition for it.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
More than any other sign, you understand how collective effort works. You know that the unification of like minds can change the world. Go ahead with long-range plans about the wealth and resources of others. This will come through for you. The support you need will be there. Whatever effort you put out now in areas connected with publishing and the media, or traveling and dealing with foreign countries, or promoting education and getting advanced training -- will bring you big rewards! You are so on top of your scene now. And others can see this as well. Don't be afraid. This new, expanded world is here to stay. (At least until Wednesday.)
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
You're really focused on education, publishing, travel and expanding your world in some way now. This is good. In part, you can do this because the resources that you need to help you are at hand. Partners and close friends are supportive. Serious discussions with them help you align long-term goals. You see new uses and applications for old materials or methods. Others are impressed with your resourcefulness! Where there were disagreements about jointly held resources -- now you see resolution. You can resolve conflicts. Ironically, your solution is better than you ever expected it to be. Keep in mind that if your new improved ideas benefit society or people in your immediate circle, you stand to benefit more as well! This is definitely a time where the old adage "what goes around comes around" applies.
