All Signs
"When the Moon is in the Seventh House, and Jupiter aligns with Mars, then peace will guide the planets and love will steer the stars." This actually happened this month. Many think the 1968 rock musical Hair predicted the dawning of the Age of Aquarius. The truth is no one knows. The birthday cycle of Earth is 26,000 years; and each Age is roughly 2100 years. Astrologers disagree about when the Age of Pisces ends (it began around the time of Christ) and when the Age of Aquarius begins. (These Ages go backwards.) Because Aquarius rules electricity, computers and networking; I believe it began in the 20th century. We're wired! We're hooked up! In fact, we're so a-twitter with blogs and urls, you gotta take your @ off!
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Friends and groups will be highly supportive and pleasant this week. Be friendly with everyone because they're going to be good to you. (Trust me.) People might advise you about how to improve your appearance, or they might give you goodies that make you look more attractive. Meanwhile, back at the New Moon -- Tuesday the 24th, is an excellent time to pause your activities and really look around you. Are you so swept up in a blur of busy activities that you're losing touch with your heart centre -- who you really are and how you really feel? Life is too short to do this. Look around you and be aware, especially of others who need you.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
This is the perfect week to talk to bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and the police. Your soft words will charm them! They'll be eating out of your hand. Now is the time to begin projects and introduce big ideas and new ventures that need to be approved or rubberstamped by the powers that be. People are impressed with you because what you say impresses them. It's a mutual admiration society! Take a moment on Tuesday the 24th, to write down your goals for the future. What are your dreams? In a perfect world, what are you doing 10 years from now? Write down three things you hope to make happen.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Your sense of hope and expectancy about the future is exciting now. You have this feeling you're going places. And many of you are! This is a great week to travel and explore. See new places! Meet new faces! Similarly, it's a great week to learn and expand your education by taking courses, or going back to school, or talking to people from different backgrounds and other cultures. Discussions about politics, religion, racial issues and philosophy will fascinate you. People are friendly and supportive. While this exciting whirl of activity takes place, spend some time on Tuesday the 24th (the New Moon) to give serious thought to your life direction in general. Do you know where you're headed?
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Discussions about shared property, inheritances, wills, insurance matters, taxes and debt will go well this week. These red tape things are so easy to put off. (Groan.) Nevertheless, they don't go away on their own. Whatever you have to do-- now is the time! You'll plow through it all with surprising ease, and things will turn out favourably for you. ("Hey, that wasn't so bad.") In other words, the time is right. The time is now. It's also beneficial to discuss loans, mortgages and fundraising or how to spend an allotted amount of money. On Tuesday the 24th, the New Moon is the perfect day to think about how you can enrich your life through travel or education. Ideas?
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Partnerships are super major now. Fortunately, this week is a great time to deal with them. Negotiations, candid conversations, plus the opportunity to seek out expert advice or get support from others is all here for you . There might be minor friction, but on the whole, you can expect co-operation from others especially regarding travel, publishing, the media, higher education, medicine and the law. It will be easy and rewarding dealing with foreign countries and people from different cultures. Tuesday's New Moon urges you to clean up your act vis-à-vis debt, taxes, inheritances, shared property and anything you'll owe someone or own jointly with others. Face the music. Roll up your sleeves. Get it done.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
It's surprisingly easy to work and accomplish a lot this week. You're optimistic, energetic and focused in a positive way. Your attitude and your energy will carry you through this week allowing you to accomplish a lot; and at the same time, impress others with your ideas, your efforts and your endurance. You rock! Because of this, you'll receive supplies, additional monies, services and support from others. (They know a winner when they see one!) Privately, the New Moon on Tuesday the 24th is the perfect opportunity for you to think about partnerships and close friendships. What role do you really want them to play in your life?
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
"It's showtime!" Grab every chance to party, play, enjoy sports, socialize, see movies, the theatre, the performing arts, and just have a good time! Love and romance can flourish. New flirtations are exciting. Existing relationships will sweeten in a cozy way. (Gosh.) Playful activities with children will be rewarding. Because your creativity is amped to the max, you're full of wonderful ideas which can help you to succeed, especially in the arts and the entertainment world. The New Moon on Tuesday is the best day all year to figure out how to improve your job and the way you do your job. It's also the perfect day to think about how to improve your health. (One needs strength to party!)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Recent stress, conflict and chaos at home have exhausted you. Nevertheless, this week, you can really turn the corner. Conversations with family members or people you live with are positive, results oriented, proactive and productive. You're going to put your cards on the table -- but nicely. ("These are not the droids you're looking for.") These same positive influences apply to real estate and efforts at home improvements and renovations. Tuesday's New Moon is the perfect time to make resolutions about relating to children; plus allowing yourself enough playtime to get in touch with the child in you. (You're a playful sign!)
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Shakespeare said, "Love's best habit is a soothing tongue." This sure applies to you this week! You're so verbally smooth, you're mesmerizing. Your honeyed words will get you everything. Get out and schmooze. This is the week to negotiate, wheel and deal, buy and sell, plus talk to relatives, neighbours and siblings. You can make money from your words. (Take note, writers and actors.) You're convincing and powerful. Nevertheless, while your words fall "trippingly from the tongue", do make time on Tuesday, the 24th to think about how you can improve where you live, and also how you can enjoy relations with family members better. You want a warm feeling in your tummy about your private world.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Money isn't everything. (There's MasterCard and Visa.) Actually, this week money is everything. It's a great time for business and commerce. You're full of moneymaking ideas and new ways to boost your earnings. You attract money to you, especially with respect to real estate matters. (And real estate matters!) Some will buy beautiful things for your home or for family members. (Especially for redecorating projects.) At work, your words will be smooth as honey. (No one can resist you.) Ironically, Tuesday's New Moon on the 24th, is the perfect day to think about how to improve your communications with others, especially siblings. Do they listen to you?
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
This week begins with five planets in your sign, which means the entire world is having an Aquarian hit. You are empowered! Mercury, the planet the rules your thought processes, and your speech and communications, is lined up with lucky Jupiter, and also dancing with fair Venus before a quick tango with fiery Mars! These planets have different influences that all energize your style of communicating to others. It makes you enthusiastic, charming, diplomatic, persuasive and assertive -- as the week unfolds. Your words will literally sweep others off their feet! Tuesday's New Moon is the best time to make resolutions about earning money, and how you handle your money; plus how you take care of your possessions.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
The New Moon on Tuesday the 24th, takes place in your sign; and this is the only New Moon in this year to do this. This is a marvelous opportunity for you because each New Moon is a chance for all of us to make resolutions and set intentions about how to improve a particular area of our lives. (The area changes according to which sign the New Moon is in.) But this is your New Moon! Therefore, on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this week, give as much thought as possible to how you want to make your life better and happier and more content --especially through close friends and partners. Think also about how you want to be seen by others. What do you want your image to be? How do you want to look?
