All Signs
When retrograde Mercury squares wild, wacky Uranus -- something's gotta give. At best, this creates some fun and unexpected excitement in our lives. At worst, it brings accidents, shocking situations, surprising news, split-ups, computer crashes, power outages and equipment/machinery breakdowns. ("Not again!") Actually, these are seams that are bursting. They're not bursting for no reason. It means somebody or something is too fat, too over blown, top-heavy, too much to handle, over amped, full of it, had enough, reached the end of the rope, can't take another moment and - dear Lord, is this my life? Sigh. Extra weight? Time to let out another pleat in the shower curtain.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Life is exciting! Major, stimulating changes come your way now through travel, foreign countries, dealing with people from other cultures, plus exploring opportunities connected with publishing, the media and higher education. You're learning new stuff by the minute! This excitement is not always smooth sailing. Interruptions and surprises keep you on your toes. However, meeting characters can be mind blowing and fun. ("This is a stick-up! Give me all your money!") Well, things aren't quite that bad. But different experiences and interruptions to your life are inevitable in the next several weeks. At the least -- you'll learn something new. At the most - your mouth will be slack-jawed and agape.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Suddenly, everything is becoming intense in your life. (Strong, passionate and powerful can be fun, but sometimes intense is just a bit too much, ya know?) Without question, you love a rich, full life. However, one of the reasons you go on vacations more than other signs is so that you can do your insane partying elsewhere while everything at home is still nicely under control. (You like order and a predictable outcome. No red wine on the carpet.) Interruptions and upsetting news about shared property, your partner's income, and a clash in values with someone (perhaps about sexual habits) is all a bit daunting right now. And just when you thought things were beginning to settle down a bit. Oy vay.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Your focus is definitely on partnerships and close friends right now. It's going to stay this way for the next 4-6 weeks. No one expects the Spanish Inquisition! Feelings of independence on your part (or your partner's) could create problems right now. Unexpected news might blow you out of the water. The upside is that people close to you will surprise you. (" Awww, you shouldn't have.") The downside is that people close to you will surprise you. ("Aaaggh! You shouldn't have!") You need your freedom. You don't want to be dictated to. (Not unless it's fun and kinky.) This just might be the last straw. (I have a little box where I keep all my last straws.)
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Computer crashes, power outages, staff shortages, outbursts from coworkers -- and the most cruel all of all blows - weak, insipid coffee - could leave you reeling at your job. "I can't take it anymore!" Actually, some of you might suddenly leave your job, and you won't have to take it any more. Despite these interruptions, your goal right now is to get better organized. You want to be on top of your scene. In fact, you feel desperate about this. You're making lists of your lists. You're a sign that has a lot of stuff. (You don't throw things away and you're shrewd at spotting bargains.) Since some of you are expanding your family now - it's time to get better organized! Ya think?
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Unsettling news and surprises are likely in the Romance Department. (That's why the Romance Department and the Complaint Department are right across the hall from each other.) It was ever thus. Parents must be extra vigilant about children now. This is definitely an accident prone time for young people in your life. However, exciting, stimulating vacation opportunities might suddenly pop up. Some of you will fall in love at first sight (or at least second glance.) If this person isn't Mr. or Miss Right - they're at least Mr. Right Now. (It's nice to have someone to nudge in the night.) You feel playful, prankish and flirtatious. New interests on the horizon excite you now. (Be still my beating heart.)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Wow. Things are sure popping at home. You don't know what to expect next. Conversations with partners and family members are upsetting or surprising. This might be refreshing and exciting; but it might also be explosive. Machinery breakdowns are likely. ("That's on the fritz again?! Grrr.") And people you live with are suddenly throwing you a curve ball. Power outages and computer glitches are frustrating. Fortunately, parties, romance, entertaining diversions, sports and enjoyable times with children are rewarding now. You win some, you lose some. Continue to focus on home, family and real estate matters for the next month. This is where you need to clean up your act.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Are you busy or are you busy? Just keep up the pace. Pack a nice lunch. You've got places to go, things to do, people to see. One of the things that keeps you insanely busy now is coping with interruptions and unexpected events in your schedule. Transportation breakdowns, communication glitches ("I can't charge my cell") and confused communications all impede your efficiency now. Difficulties with sexual partners, as well as disagreements about shared property add fuel to the fire. Fortunately, home and family are quite cozy now. You have no choice but to keep up the pace. However, don't rush. This is an accident prone time for you. (Don't go sailing in the Forth of Firth.)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Matters connected with your job and how you earn your money suddenly seem to be out of your control. (Not that you were ever super in control.) Sudden job changes or changes to your job are likely now. Interruptions to your cash flow -- in or out -- are practically inevitable. Some of you will opt for self-employment. Others might return to old jobs or previous employers. There's no question that you're focused on finances right now. (You're on a low cash diet.) Fortunately, daily interactions with colleagues, relatives and neighbours are pleasant. In fact, you're surprised to discover just how much love there is in your daily life! Gosh. Who knew?
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
I grew up on the Prairies where people were said to be "feeling their oats." That doesn't mean grabbing a handful of oatmeal and rubbing it between your fingers. Oh no. Actually, it has nothing to do with porridge. (Unless you're throwing it.) Freedom of action is a survival issue for you. You're very independent. You're a bit of a loose cannon. That's why you will fight to the death (at least a haughty snub) to maintain your independence. Upsets with family members, especially parents are likely now. Interruptions to your life are unavoidable. Cope with these with grace and patience. Anger serves no purpose except to make everyone (including you) miserable. Think before you speak.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Doubts and upsetting feelings you can't quite put your finger on make you feel restless and irritable lately. Dealings with the government and large institutions are unpredictable. You're not sure what's going on. Well, uncertainty is one thing you can count on now. If you know that you don't know, that's better than thinking you know when you don't know - know what I mean? (I know you do.) This means in one way you're in the know. Because to know you don't know is a big advantage over thinking you know when you don't know. Meanwhile always remember: when you don't know what you're doing -- do it neatly.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
A friend might really surprise you now. Somebody might do something that is completely off-the-wall. (Actually, that somebody might be you.) Quite possibly, your relations with groups (or one person in particular) will be suddenly interrupted. Disagreements about money and possessions could be the root of the problem. The most positive interpretation of this current influence is that you will meet a real character right now. That would be nice. You love characters. But the odds are that someone you already know shocks you. At least, life isn't boring. Opportunities for your career and your job continue to come your way. That's nice.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Walk softly and carry a big loofa mitt. (Those things are scary scratchy!) Explosive conversations with parents, bosses, authority figures, VIPs, teachers -- and the police -- are very likely right now. It's all a bit too much. You might be telling others off; they might be telling you off. Everybody might be telling everybody off. Yikes! Nobody wants to take direction from anyone right now. Least of all you. Holy dilemma! You feel rebellious and impatient with authority. On top of this, others are completely unpredictable now. Try not to be reactionary. A closed most gathers no feet. Relations with friends are excellent. Opportunities for travel and publishing are still in the wings. Relax. (Buy winter boots.)
