All Signs

This week has opportunities, advantages and challenges. Monday is well-balanced, encouraging and productive. Tuesday is tough. This is not the day to ask for approval or permission from authority figures because their response will be "Talk to the hand!" Thankfully, Wednesday and Thursday are productive, innovative and imaginative, while Friday is a great day for communications and socializing. The weekend favours romance and outdoor activities; although an element of confusion (even coercion) is present from authority figures. The bottom line is: Stand up for yourself. Defend yourself. Work and be productive. Keep things simple. Don't get involved in other people's drama. Keep your head down and your powder dry.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This year you're setting off on a new path. For many, life is so different you might have changed your daily wardrobe. What you might not know now is you're on a journey to reinvent yourself. The next several weeks are about rolling up your sleeves and working hard. You'll be rewarded with a strong sense of satisfaction from your accomplishments. Do your best dealing with increased activity and chaos at home. After all, you want to take advantage of marvellous opportunities for vacations, the arts, creative activities, romance and fun times with kids. This week Venus sweetens all your relationships. Lucky you!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a time of letting go of people, places and possessions so you can get rid of what is no longer relevant in your world. Don't think of this as loss. Think of it as lightening your load! Streamlining your life! The next few weeks are playful, lighthearted and fun-loving. Enjoy socializing, sports events, the arts and fun times with kids. Romance (especially with someone of an age difference) is likely. You'll have no trouble defending yourself right now because when you talk to others, you'll say what you mean and mean what you say! Look for ways to improve where you live through renovations, repairs or redecorating projects -- or find another home?

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Recently, you have been proud of your accomplishments. And this is well-deserved. Now you're challenge is to coordinate your activities with others in a productive way, while at the same time, maintaining your own power and integrity. In other words, you don't want to be swallowed up by someone else's demands. On Monday, you will have a chance to demonstrate this. Meanwhile, in the next few weeks, your focus is on home, family and perhaps a parent. Family discussions will take place, as well as home repairs. You're spending money; but fortunately, you're working to earn it as well. Your saving grace now is your optimism and your belief in a better tomorrow.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This year has been the beginning of your time of "Harvest." This is a special time. It's the culmination of a 30-year cycle where you are proud of your achievements. This could be anything - a graduation, a wedding, starting your own business, an important promotion, the birth of a child. Whatever the case, it's important to you. This is one reason you're upbeat, optimistic and hopeful. Obviously, others want to be around you now because people are attracted to success and happiness. With fiery Mars in your sign now until September 27, you're bursting with energy, drive and gusto! Enjoy this busy pace. Enjoy redecorating and entertaining at home because your home is your nest.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You probably have a sense of direction or a plan about where you're headed, which is why you know that you are currently in a time of preparation for what will culminate for you in a couple of years. In part, this is why you're focused on money, cash flow and your assets this weekend and this month. Fortunately, you have ideas! (You're a creative person who is quick to see the big picture.) Right now, it's important to protect yourself from those who don't have your best interests at heart. They might not be "after you", but they aren't taking care of you, either. Be vigilant. Fortunately, with lucky Jupiter in your sign until your birthday next year, you have divine protection!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

What you are quietly struggling with this year is getting along with less. Some kind of support that was financial, practical or advantageous might have been removed or diminished. As a result, you are thrown back on your own 2 feet for your own support. This is nothing you can't handle. Hey, this doesn't mean things are "getting worse" Au contraire! By 2030, you will achieve your time of "Harvest" when you will be proud of your achievements! This week and this month, you're empowered with the Sun and Mercury in your sign. You're active with friends and groups, and keen to make future goals. Make time to appreciate your inner world through meditation, yoga, long walks or whatever you choose.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Relationships are testing you this year - no question. These relationships could be marriage partners, professional partnerships or a close friendship. In a few cases, a relationship will end because it's more trouble than it's worth. But for most of you, you will have to make adjustments. In fact, one of the easiest ways we can mature and develop is learning to deal with a partner. It's an opportunity (perhaps daily) to practice patience, tolerance and forgiveness. This is a quiet time for you because your personal year is ending. Nevertheless, your ambition is strong! This is also a popular time for you, which is why you are enjoying the company of friends, groups and organizations. You are loved.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

We both know that you are making an effort to bust your buns to prove to the world what you can do. It's not easy but you will grow into the demands of this pace. Give it time. Basically, your effectiveness as a human being is being tested. Treat your body as a tool that has to be well cared for. Meanwhile, this weekend and this month bring opportunities to socialize, especially with younger people. Travel and any chance to broaden your horizons will appeal. Be aware that all your efforts will pay off because for the first time in 12 years, lucky Jupiter is at the top of your chart making you look successful to everyone - and as we all know - the appearance of success is sexy!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

In a curious way, you have that feeling that you don't know what you want to be when you grow up - regardless of your age. "What's it all about, Alfie?" This is occurring to you now along with the fact that many of you have increased responsibilities with children. Others have a chance to hone a skill or practice a creative technique so that you will become more accomplished doing this. This week and this month, you are in the flattering spotlight of the Sun, which is why others admire you. Without doing anything special, you seem super competent. Admittedly, disputes about inheritances, shared property, taxes, debt and loans might be in the picture. Fortunately, opportunities through travel, publishing, medicine, the law and higher education now bless you.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Home and family are strong values for you. White picket fence, 2.5 kids, God, motherhood and the flag. This year in particular, you have a strong desire to secure your home base for yourself and your family against future adversities. You want something you can rely on. Very wise. Meanwhile, this week and this month, you have an urge to expand your world! Explore opportunities in publishing, the media, medicine, the law, higher education and travel. Get a change of scenery! Learn something new. Meanwhile, be patient with partners and close friends who might seem annoying. Demonstrate grace under pressure because partnerships can enrich you now.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

An element of uncertainty is in the air for many of you this year and next because a change of jobs, a change of residence or perhaps both might be in the cards. Stay flexible because this is a possibility, even if you don't think so. Meanwhile, you have some strong ideas this weekend and this month about dealing with shared property, inheritances, taxes, debt and loans. You want to tie up loose ends. Because you have lots of drive and energy to work now, you will probably do this. You'll also be productive at work because you're focused and energetic. Enjoy warm relationships and partnerships because lucky Jupiter opposite your sign is the best influence for your relationships in over a decade.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

There is no way to sugarcoat this: Your financial situation is tight. You have that feeling that control over your own possessions and assets is slipping away from your hands. This is why you will work hard to keep everything as you want it. Be smart. Organize your finances so that they will flow. Be economical. This is also a time when you're thinking more about your own spiritual and moral values. Remember to get more rest in the coming month because you're tired. Nevertheless, somehow you have energy to party! You might even be involved in competitive sports. Of course, the overlying blessing throughout all of this is that you will improve your health this year and your job. Sweet!
