Mercury and Venus in Cancer are starting to set the stage for Jupiter's shift into Cancer at the end of the month. This will be fortunate for all the Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces) but most especially for Cancer. (Ya think?) The last time Jupiter was in Cancer was July 2001 to August 2002. Jupiter loves to be in Cancer and feels totally at home. This signifies a boost for real estate, gardening, food establishments and the rights of women, especially with respect to their home and family. Restaurants will flourish in the coming year, which makes me glad. I don't cook -- but I will butter my own bread.
This week continues with its stepped-up pace for Aries. Fortunately, you have lots of energy for short trips, talking to others, reading, writing plus keeping busy with tasks and errands. You are starting to tackle repairs or initiate redecorating projects where you live, perhaps in anticipation of entertaining at home. Others might be redecorating because you're thinking of selling where you live and indeed the coming year, perhaps the next 18 months, are one of the best times for real-estate deals for your sign since 2002. Meanwhile, fiery Mars sparks all your conversations and could trigger conflicts. Oops. That's because you identify with your beliefs. (Oh well, don't we all?)
Your money, cash flow and earnings are a big focus because you have a strong desire now for beautiful things. No doubt you will gratify this desire by shopping for something gorgeous. (Your sign has a true appreciation for antiques, collectibles and beautiful objects d'art. In fact, many of you own antique stores or secondhand shops.) Do be careful because your ego seems to be tied up right now with your possessions and assets. On the upside, you will be clever and quick to see ways to use your possessions to get things done. In the next few weeks, you will notice more beauty in your surroundings and you might also be surprised to discover just how much love there is in your daily world. Aw gee.
Your energy is increasing because not only are the Sun and Jupiter in your sign but now fiery Mars enters the picture. (The last time Mars was in your sign was in July 2011. It visits every two years.) This will add juice to your energy for the next six weeks, which is why you might not notice that you are more aggressive, assertive and ready to defend yourself and others. ("You can't talk to my friend like that!") Because Mars rules your muscles, this is an especially good time to get more physical exercise. Meanwhile, fair Venus could bring opportunities to boost your earnings. It will also make you want to buy little treasures for yourself and loved ones. Trust your money-making ideas because you're full of them!
You are still lying low, working alone or behind the scenes, which is why this is a good time to contemplate what you want your new year (birthday to birthday) to be all about. However, Mercury and Venus are both dragging you from your lair and encouraging you to schmooze and talk to others. In fact, this week is an excellent time to make peace with others and do whatever you enjoy doing most. (Venus always ranked pleasure above work.) Naturally, Mercury urges you to express your point of view and tell others what you think about everything. Keep things light and entertaining because you're getting ready to enter one of the most fun, fortunate years you've had in more than a decade.
Your popularity is strong and getting stronger. However, because you're coming on like gangbusters, you might find yourself at odds with someone. You might also be competitive with someone. Fortunately, physical activity with others (sports and workouts) will give you a chance to blow off some of this steam. Next month is an excellent time to formulate goals and begin to actively pursue them. Define what you want to achieve in the next two years; you are always more comfortable when you have a tangible goal in mind. Despite your busy activities, you will still enjoy solitude in beautiful surroundings and a chance to meditate, cogitate, ruminate but hopefully, not fumigate.
The Sun continues to be high in your chart acting like a spotlight calling attention to you, especially from parents, bosses, teachers and VIPs. (Do remember this includes the police.) Also remember this light is flattering so this is the perfect time to accept increased responsibilities or demand the advantage because, in the eyes of others, you'll do well. (It's smoke and mirrors.) Fortunately, because Mars is now crossing the top of your chart your ambition is aroused. This means you're ready to impress others and accept what they have to offer. Caution about coming on so strong that bosses and co-workers feel threatened. You want to call your own shots, and you want the credit. Natch - who doesn't?
Travel, publishing, higher education, the media and anything to do with medicine and the law continue to be a strong pull for you. Because Mars now joins the picture, you will be keen to expand your mind and your experiences in life through learning or travel. You might also find yourself in a position of defending your beliefs. Mars will make you convincing, which is why you will easily sway others to your way of thinking. Discussions with bosses and authority figures are likely and some of you might develop a crush on a VIP or your boss. Because you look so favourable to others, you will be asked for your creative input on something - design, layout, appearances - something. (This, of course, is one of your big strengths.)
You can definitely benefit from the wealth and resources of others now because many Scorpios are receiving gifts, goodies and favours from people. They might also have the use of something others own. Just chalk this up to your own good karma and say, "Thank you!" In some cases, fiery Mars could trigger disputes about inheritances, shared property, taxes, debt or anything you own jointly with others. Be cool. Don't lose it. The upside is that Mars also heightens your sex drive for the next six weeks while Venus brings opportunities to travel for pleasure. (Now that's a nice combo.) Look for ways to make money from publishing, medicine and the law. Ka-ching!
You need more sleep now because the Sun, your source of energy, is as far away from your sign as it gets all year. In addition, Mars is going to be sitting opposite your sign for the next six weeks stirring the pot with relationships because you might easily be annoyed with others. Just remember patience is the antidote to anger. And anger serves no purpose other than to make everyone miserable, including you. The good news is that fair Venus stimulates your sexuality and attracts love and money to you. You can learn a lot about how you relate to others now. (Hey, you love learning, right?)
Although you have been gung ho to get better organized and keen to work hard, because Mars is changing signs this week you will be even more gung ho and more keen to accomplish as much as possible. Something will happen that gives you a chance to feel proud of what you do. Quite likely, you will work alone and if you're lucky, you will be your own boss because you want credit for what you achieve now. (This is why you're working so hard.) Others will help you so don't be afraid to ask for assistance. Because of your shining example, partnerships will flourish. Others are impressed with your productivity. (Hey, hard work can be sexy, especially if you have to take your shirt off.)
It's still fun and games for your sign. (Mom always liked you best.) Grab every opportunity to enjoy sports events, playful times with children, the arts, musical performances and, of course, a chance to slip away on a vacation. Your sex drive is amped and this influence of Mars could trigger new romance for some of you. (Mars and desire are closely linked.) This new romance could also be work-related. No matter where you turn, people will be attracted to you! Athletic activities, especially competitive ones, will really appeal to you for the next few weeks. You want to show others you've got what it takes.
Your home and family life continues to be enriched with favourable influences. However, there might be trouble in paradise. Fiery Mars indicates the likelihood of increased activity and chaos at home, perhaps due to visiting guests but more likely due to repairs, renovations and redecorating projects or residential moves. Be patient with family members because peace and harmony are vital to everyone's happiness. Discord will drain you in every aspect of your life. Fortunately, this challenging influence is beautifully offset by sweet opportunities for romance, creative activities and a loving relationship with kids. You feel relaxed now because there's no need to pretend to be what you are not.
