All Signs
This week is a mixed bag. There's a seductive element present that will make it hard to rely on self-discipline, especially for those who are tempted by addictive behaviour. And yet, this same hazy influence will heighten our imagination and appreciation of beauty, helping us to express ourselves with originality and brilliance! The New Moon on Friday, Nov. 1 is an opportunity for everyone to make resolutions and set intentions for behaviour that we hope to cultivate. As for resisting temptation? Well, what if it doesn't come your way again? (Especially if you're in a witness protection program.) I am part Icelandic. Did you know that the word 'happy' derives from the Icelandic word "happ" meaning good fortune or chance? I'm beginning to suspect no amount of careful planning will ever replace dumb luck.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
On Monday you might want to kick back and relax at home. Sleep in and have a second cup of coffee or tea. Take it easy. However, by Wednesday, be aware that something unexpected could impact your banking situation or agreements that you have in place about shared property, taxes, debt and inheritances. Keep your eyes open to protect your own best practical and financial interests. In fact, whatever happens might lead you to make a firm resolve by Friday to protect yourself and your assets from any future threats or confusion. Meanwhile travel or a chance to do something different appeals! You do love an adventure! ("Do we go out the same way we came in? Or do we slide down this chute?")
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Very likely, you'll be low-energy on Monday. Make fewer demands on yourself and others. However, romance is promising and passionate. (Stay in bed?) By Wednesday, someone might throw you a curveball. Something unexpected. It might trigger an argument. Or it might introduce a new way of looking at a relationship? Perhaps someone wants more freedom? On Friday, the New Moon will be the only New Moon that is opposite your sign all year. This will give you a wonderful opportunity to think about what you can do to improve your closest relationships. As you know, for a partnership to be successful, you must be as good for your partner as he or she is for you.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Be careful with financial matters especially on Monday, because confusion or wishful thinking might end up costing you money. Postpone important purchases for another day because you'll be tempted to go overboard with luxury. Delay your instant gratification. Meanwhile, be ready for something unexpected on Wednesday. This could be about your job -- staff shortages, cancelled appointments, delayed deliveries - anything. Pet owners should be vigilant because this surprise could relate to your pet. By Friday, these are the very areas that offer you a chance to make resolutions. How can you improve your job? How can you improve your health? How can you improve how you take care of your pet?
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Don't give yourself a demanding To Do list on Monday. In fact, play hooky if you can because your energy will be low. Having said that, you might want to help someone in need, especially because you are a nurturing person. On Wednesday, social plans will suddenly change! An anticipated event might be cancelled or delayed; or perhaps a surprise invitation will unexpectedly appear? However, guard against sports accidents. And parents must be extra vigilant about their children to avoid mishaps. On Friday, the New Moon is an excellent time to give serious thought to the kind of balance you have in your life between work and recreation. Do you take enough time to play? Do you express your creativity? Think about it.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Have you ever thought about how the sound of the word "ennui" actually suggests the notion of boredom and weariness? Let us say that Monday will be full of ennui. Take it easy. Don't push the river. However, be on your toes on Wednesday because something unexpected might occur with bosses, parents and authority figures. Most likely it will manifest at home or within your family. Small appliances might break down or a minor breakage could occur. Surprise company might drop by. Be smart. Plan ahead and stock the fridge. Friday's New Moon is a wonderful chance to think about how you can improve your relations with family members, and also how to make improvements in your home so that you enjoy your surroundings.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Your relations with friends and groups might be tricky on Monday. Someone might try to deceive you? Note: Be careful in the middle of the week because this will be an accident-prone time for you. Pay attention to everything you say and do. Drive, walk, jog with awareness. Avoid blurting something out to someone that you later regret. Be careful about knee-jerk reactions when talking to people. In fact, something might happen that prompts you to use Friday's New Moon to make resolutions about how you react to others. My advice is to always tell the truth unless you're an exceptionally good liar.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
At the beginning of the week, you might feel emotionally confused because you're ambitious and you want to get things done but you don't want to do anything. That's okay. Cut yourself some slack. Take it easy but change the hummingbird feeders. Get ready for Wednesday because in the middle of the week, something related to your finances, your earnings or your possessions will require your attention. Stay on top of banking details. Protect what you own against damage, theft or loss. Whatever happens might lead you to make some resolutions on Friday's New Moon about how to handle your finances or what you own in a better way. (Librans are concerned about money but they don't talk about it. When life exceeds your greatest fantasies, you keep it to yourself.)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Synonyms for Monday's feelings of ennui are 'tedium', 'weariness' and 'apathy' - (oh who cares about apathy?) Accept that this as the tenor of your day and go with the flow. Take it easy. Prepare for unrest on Tuesday and especially Wednesday, when Mercury in your sign opposes unpredictable Uranus. You'll feel edgy and you might speak hastily. You might be undisciplined, nervous and careless? Avoid anything that requires a disciplined, careful approach because you'll be impatient. On the upside, you might meet new people who challenge your way of thinking? This makes sense because Friday's New Moon in your sign will prompt you to think about how you can create a better impression on your world. This is good.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Avoid important financial discussions on Monday because things are confusing. You might have incorrect information. Someone might deceive you by accident or intentionally. (Yikes!) Don't agree to the terms of a loan or mortgage. Don't lend money on Monday. Double check banking details. Don't decide how to share or divide something. Wait a few days. By Wednesday, you're restless about something. Issues related to your health, your work or a pet might catch you off guard. Stay steady. The New Moon on Friday is a lovely opportunity for you to think about your spiritual values. You might also think about how to stop stepping in the same mud puddles. (Better gum boots?)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
On Monday, many people want to take it easy. Therefore, be prepared to revise plans with partners and close friends. You might want to rethink any ambitious schedules you previously had in mind. Possibly, this will trigger upsets with friends and members of groups on Wednesday, when you feel strongly about a particular issue. You want the freedom to call your own shots! Obviously, you have your own opinions. Nevertheless, someone might oppose you. This tricky energy can also trip up romantic relationships and issues with your kids. Patience is the key. (That's because patience is the antidote to anger.)
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Don't be down on yourself if you feel a bit lazy on Monday and you don't want to work. (Join the club we number millions.) However, be aware that some kind of confusion that's related to your job, and possibly your health, might trigger misunderstandings about costs, billing or financial matters. It's a fuzzy day. Wednesday is also a tricky day for dealing with parents, bosses and authority figures including the police. You will feel rebellious and independent and will not want to be told what to do! If a clash does take place, remember the power of courtesy, which can be disarming. Don't say anything you will later regret. Be cool.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Those lazy feelings many of us have on Monday can help those of you involved in the arts because you'll be more in touch with your imagination and your ability to visualize. Some will feel tenderhearted about the plight of children. Romance might disappoint because of unexpressed expectations. Start to gear up by Wednesday when you enter an accident-prone, powerful time. Think twice before you say or do anything. Be mindful. On the upside, you might have brilliant, original ideas related to publishing, higher education, medicine and the law. Friday's New Moon prompts the question of what further education or travel you could do to improve your world?
