The 2025 Annual Forecasts are available for pre-order. Annual Forecasts will be sent via e-mail on January 1st.
Moon Alert
Caution! Avoid shopping or making important decisions all day today. The Moon is in Virgo.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Old flames are back on the scene, which means you have to look fabulous because living well is the best revenge. ("Eat your heart out! Look what you're missing.") Vacation plans might be stalled. Some are dealing with old issues with kids. And so it goes.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Relatives might be sleeping on your couch and camped on your doorstep, eating you out of house and home.. Could be a family reunion. Whatever the case, domestic issues from the past, plus family members are back in your face again!
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
This is a frustrating time! Silly goof-ups at work, mixed-up communications, lost materials and misplaced papers, transportation delays and broken equipment are just a few of the things that now frustrate you. That's because your ruler Mercury is retrograde! Aaggh!
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
If you're looking for work, try contacting previous employers, old clients or places where you applied before. The best way to generate money right now is to jiggle whatever occurred in the past. This is not a good time to initiate new stuff. (Also not a good time to buy cars, trucks, bikes and computers.)
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Some of you will be involved with ex-partners now because Mercury retrograde is slipping back directly opposite your sign. ("Not that again!") However, this is a wonderful opportunity for you to finish old business or gain closure about some issue - especially a relationship that has recently ended.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
A Mercury retrograde time is not all bad. It can be used to one's advantage. In particular, for your sign, you can do amazing research into the past or study history or do things like that. It's as if your search into the past will open up all kinds of things. "Afghanistan-bananistan!"
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Old friends will be back in your life again. These could be acquaintances you knew from clubs and organizations or they could be pals you haven't seen for a while. It's good to have history with others. (But sometimes - you would really rather dodge all this, wouldn't you?)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Delays with authority figures are likely now. However, some of you will run into old bosses and people from the past. This could turn out to be advantageous. Although it's hard to move forward into new areas, it's easy to stir up stuff from your past and make it work for you.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Travel delays and cancellations are unavoidable now. (Boo hoo.) Similarly, delays with publishing, the media, medicine and the law or anything to do with higher education are also taking place. Just be patient. Actually, this is a good time to study, especially the past, or delve into history.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
This is the perfect time to get closure on certain issues with others, especially wills, inheritances and disputes about shared property. You can more easily learn information about what other people own (and what they might be hiding) at this time. ("You are so busted!")
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Like a Leo, many of you are dealing with ex-partners and old friends, because of Mercury retrograde. You might want to run and hide, or you might see this as an opportunity to tie things up neatly with a bow. It's time to move on. Adios.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Things are frustrating at work because Mercury retrograde tends to delay matters and cause silly communication breakdowns as well as transportation delays. Cheques in the mail will be late. Papers lost. But sometimes a delay gives you more time at the 11th hour. (Is that a bugle call?)
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actor Peter O'Toole (1932) shares your birthday today. You are never subdued by peer pressure. You're individualistic and very much your own person. You are a sensitive person who at times is quite hard-boiled. You multi-task, you are busy and you are independent. You never back down from a fight. Expect a major change in your year ahead, perhaps something as significant as whatever happened around 2003.
