All Signs
New Year's Day is a laid-back day - perfect for lounging around and watching movies. (Avoid anyone who can push your buttons.) Keep in mind that as this New Year begins, we're still under the influence of retrograde Mars until February 24. Wait until then to start a new job, open a new business or initiate anything fresh. In the meantime, be skilful in dealing with old resentments and disappointments. (Anger serves no purpose except to make everyone miserable.) This year will usher in a "Power to the People" movement, which will last for 20 years. Mind boggling technological advances will occur. I'll discuss this next week. Meanwhile, there's no time like the pleasant! Warmest wishes to you all for a Happy New Year!
Aries (March 21-April 19)
You're high viz.. People admire you and think you're competent and capable even if you don't do anything special. This is the power of good lighting! (The Sun is at the top of your chart casting you in a flattering spotlight, which is your good fortune.) You will also find it pleasing and rewarding dealing with friends and members of groups. You're keen to make travel plans as well as study and learn something new. Many of you are still downsizing and letting go of stuff that you no longer need. However, relations with kids might be challenging along with relations with romantic partners. This tension will subside by March. Hang in there.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Your mind is filled with travel plans or thinking about ways to get a change of scenery. Do whatever you can because you need an adventurous shift. You might also explore study, finishing a manuscript or publishing possibilities. School plans will appeal. Fortunately, this is a great week to make your pitch to a boss or anyone in authority because they will be receptive to you. (That's half the battle.) Discussions about shared property, inheritances and debt can be productive. Be patient with home and family issues that are dispiriting and discouraging. A lot of this is old stuff coming to the surface. It's not easy figuring out what to do or how to be wise. But you can be tolerant.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
As this year begins, you're giving more thought to inheritances, shared property, taxes, debt and anything you own jointly with someone else. Perhaps you want to have better defined boundaries? Something that is clearer so that everyone knows where they stand. Including you. Unfortunately, communications with others are strained, especially with siblings, because Mars is retrograde in this part of your chart. Discussions with partners and close friends can be meaningful. In the meantime, if you can grab a getaway trip for pleasure and fun - do it. It will make you feel so good. "I'm outta here!"
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
This year begins with the Sun opposite your sign, and the Sun is your source of energy. This means it is as far away from you as it can get all year. We're not talking 93 million miles. We're talking about 5 inches on your chart. It's symbolic. This is why you will tire more easily and will need more sleep. On the whole, relations with partners and close friends are positive. You're keen to work this week. Even though favours and money might come to you; nevertheless, issues related to your job, how you earn your money and also how you spend it might unearth secrets and resentments. (You're a good money handler but you like to hang on to it.)
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Although you will enjoy socializing and schmoozing with others this week, you're also keen to get to work and be productive. In fact, you'll be hands-on in your approach to things and will work efficiently to get the best results for your efforts. Mars is retrograde in your sign, which is frustrating. It can make you feel fearful and worried about past issues that might resurface and drag you down. You will also feel low energy. Yet, if someone challenges you or is rude to you, you might over react because you're off your game. (Oops.) The last time Mars was retrograde in your sign was 15 years ago. Cut yourself some slack. You're still the same entertaining, witty, caring, insecure person we all love.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You were in fine form for the holidays, and this blessing continues into the new year. This is because the Sun is in one of the most fun-loving parts of your chart. That's why it's easy for you to enjoy the small pleasures in life. It's also easier for you to slip away on a vacation and enjoy some serious good times! Fortunately, relations with coworkers are warm and supportive. And your reputation in the eyes of others is excellent. You look successful in whatever you're doing. It's timely that you have this support from the world around you because privately, you might feel suppressed anger with others. You might even feel angry with yourself as you reassess past actions because retrograde Mars can bring hidden forces to light, especially with hidden enemies. Give yourself rest and solitude.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Your focus on home and family continues as this year begins. This is one reason you will welcome a chance to hide at home and take it easy. You need some pampered seclusion so that you can recuperate and restore yourself after the holiday festivities. Nevertheless, you're keen to chat to others and learn new things. Short trips might appeal. You might even like a fun getaway because you'll still enjoy schmoozing with others, especially your kids and romantic partners. Past hurts with friends and acquaintances will be uppermost in your mind. Let these feelings go. They serve you no purpose. And anyway, as you well know, life is short - and fat.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You feel revved up as this year begins! You're eager to take short trips and explore new experiences around you, and talk to everyone. Many of you are in school or signing up for courses because you want to learn. Relations with family members are warm and supportive. You're enjoying your home; in fact, many of you are still entertaining. Moneymaking ideas are foremost in your mind. Don't worry if you're not sure about your life direction. With retrograde Mars taking place at the top of your chart, your future looks uncertain. In reality, your future is not uncertain. It is going to unfold. Wait until March to get a better idea of the path that you will choose because you will choose something.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
As this year begins, you're charming and diplomatic with everyone. Kiss, kiss; hug, hug. This will energize your social life and make dealing with your everyday world more pleasant and lighter. You will see how much love there is in your everyday life. You will also enjoy the beauty of your daily surroundings. This might prompt you to rethink your values and how you want to earn money. You might feel frustrated about achieving your goals, especially in publishing, higher education and travel. You might also be in conflict with someone about beliefs or ideologies. Take time for patience, reflection and honest communication. Honesty is the best policy - less competition.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
You begin this year with confidence and energy because the Sun is in your sign. This is one of the blessings of being a Capricorn. That and the fact that that you look much younger than you are. This year is full of wonderful opportunities to improve your health as well as to improve your existing job or get a better job. Meanwhile, this week you might buy pretty things for yourself and loved ones. Fortunately, you will also see ways to make money. Disputes about inheritances and shared property might get nasty because old resentments are exposed. Don't rush into anything. Postpone important decisions until March. Be patient. Focus on healing. Reflect - don't react.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You begin this year in a low-key way because the Sun is hiding in your chart. It's the perfect time to seek out some solitude. With Venus in your sign, you're charming, diplomatic and attractive in the eyes of others. (It's a great week to buy wardrobe goodies.) Nevertheless, partnerships (both professional and personal) have been challenging because problems and perhaps secrets from the past have resurfaced. Miscommunications and passive-aggressive behaviour might emerge. Delay important decisions regarding your relationships until March. Practice patience. It's always darkest before it gets pitch black.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Your popularity continues! Everyone wants to see your face. This will make it easy for you to work and cooperate with others, especially in groups or organizations. It's also important to be yourself among your friends. Don't pretend to be anyone that you aren't (unless you have the right props). Secret love affairs might be taking place for some of you. Your greatest source of angst right now is your job, your work and perhaps your health. The thing to know is that the problems that are surfacing in these areas will be far easier to deal with in March. In fact, March might bring solutions. It will certainly bring hope and a sense of direction about where you want to go. In the meantime, don't ask people what sex they are.
