All Signs
This week we have the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter - all in Leo. Wow! Think of a bunch of Leos partying! Madonna, Mae West, Dustin Hoffman, Whitney Houston, Coco Chanel, Diana Vreeland, J.K Rowling, Daniel Radcliffe, Martha Stewart, Julia Child, Kevin Spacey, Robert Redford, Jason Statham, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sandra Bullock, Chris Hemsworth, Jennifer Lawrence, Woody Harrelson, Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck, Robert DeNiro, Sean Penn, Charlize Theron, and friends Matt Le Blanc and Matthew Perry. Break out the champagne! Sequins, glitter, sunglasses and furs! Big tips to stretch limo drivers. (Except for those who arrive in a huff in case they want to leave in one.)
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Your energy right now is party city all the way. No matter how hard you're working, your focus is on fun, entertainment and having a good time. Love affairs, romantic liaisons, playful activities with children, games, puzzles and pranks are all things that intrigue you now. This is the perfect time for vacation. If you can't take a vacation then turn your weekend into a vacation or any evening this week because playful, creative diversions that give you fun and pleasure are totally where it is at for you right now. It's time to just be you without fear or apology. New romance will spark for some of you. Eat your spinach. "I yam what I yam."
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
It's rare to have such a planetary emphasis on home and family the way it's happening right now for your sign. For some, this focus might primarily be on family events. It could be about a new family arrival, marriage, birth or adoption. Family arguments and peacemaking. Reunions and get-togethers. Family members pulling together to achieve something. Others will be focused on their home through redecorating, renovating or even a residential move. Some might begin to build a new home or explore real-estate opportunities for speculation or for a future home. Whatever your focus - you will enjoy improving your home and family scene. Invite everyone over for good food and drink. "More whiskey and fresh horses for my men!"
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Life is unfolding at a fast pace for you, but you don't mind. (Geminis don't do boring.) You're eager to talk to others, and when you do, you will be convincing, attention-getting and entertaining! You have something to say and you want to say it. Not only is this week's planetary energy excellent for verbalizing, it is equally excellent for writing. Hey - you are the wordsmith; and right now, five planets are begging you to share your words with others. Short trips, increased involvement with siblings and neighbours, plus reading, writing and studying will keep you hopping. Of course, words can never express what words can never express.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
"Show me the money!" This week, there are five planets in your House of Money and Earnings. This means you're thinking about money and the things that you value. You might wonder if you own your possessions or do they own you? (Are you a slave to your stuff?) The bottom line is you want to have better control of your life through the things you value and own. Meanwhile, some of you are contemplating a big purchase. In fact, most of you are shopping more than usual; and many of you are interested in beautiful clothes, jewelry and art. Naturally this is also a favourable time for financial negotiations. Basically, all this heavy-duty influence in one sign, occurring in one part of your chart, means that you can actualize in your life whatever it is you most value. It might be money; it might be physical possessions; it might be something else.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
This over-the-top concentration of planets in your sign is even rarer than last month's Blue Moon. Obviously, you have a strong need to express yourself because of the strong Leo focus. Quite literally, it's all about you. You will put a lot of yourself in whatever you have to say and you have a lot to say! Plus your mind keeps jumping from subject to subject. You will also want to travel, especially to see good friends or to take a vacation. Venus, of course, ranks pleasure above work. This is why you are partying more than usual; and despite your ambition to party less and work harder, you keep partying! (Oh the morning guilt.) Some might be surprised at how feisty and aggressive you are. Well, this strong energy will stay until the end of September, so everyeone will just have to get used to it. This is your hour. Go after what you want.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
This heavy concentration of planets in one sign actually occurs in a hidden part of your chart. This can mean several things but first and foremost, it will mean that you are working behind the scenes; you're hiding in the wings. You might be doing something secretive or private, and yes, this includes secret love affairs. You are planning something, which is a good idea because your birthday will arrive very soon and you have your whole new year to think about. Not only that, as these planets move out of the hidden part of your chart, they all move into the sign of Virgo! This is very much a time of preparation for you. A dress rehearsal before opening night!
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
This is quite a fabulous week for you because for starters, you are a social sign. And this week, you will experience five planets moving through your House of Friendships. This is most unusual! You will enjoy schmoozing with younger people, artistic types, friends and also people in groups - classes, organizations, conferences and conventions. But the important thing to know is that not only will you enjoy interacting with others, all these interactions will benefit you. Oh yes. This week is not the time to go it alone. Au contraire. Physical sports, competitions and socializing will please you enormously. This is also a good time to formulate goals and decide how to pursue them. Instead of looking way ahead - what are your goals for the next two months?
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You are super high viz. this week because five planets are at the top of your chart making everyone notice you, whether you seek this out or not. It's just what it is. Furthermore, you look good to people. Others admire you. They see you as attractive, competent, hard-working and competitive. Conversations with bosses, parents and VIPs will go well. If someone offers you increased responsibilities, or a new position, or a new job - accept this because you will shine! The truth is, you look so good to others now, some of you will begin a love affair or a strong flirtation with your boss or someone in a position of authority. Since you have this advantage - use it.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You are the traveller of the zodiac, which means you always want to travel. But this week, you are really itching to go somewhere. If you can't grab a jet, then travel locally. If you can't travel locally, then be a tourist in your own city. One of the main ways to benefit from astrology is to go with the flow and time your activities when they are most appropriate. What is most appropriate for you this week is to travel, seek out adventure, learn something new, sign up for a course and talk to people from different backgrounds and other countries. Do anything that gives you the thrill of discovery! Some will use this same energy to explore avenues in publishing, the media, medicine and the law. And yes, your idea about going back to school is a good one.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
You can party with the rest of them, but privately, you never forget the big picture. You intend to be someone. You want respect. And you want security for your future. Nothing wrong with that. You'll be happy to know that this week you have wonderful opportunities to secure your future in terms of how you relate to others with shared property, inheritances, insurance issues, debt, taxes, or anything that you own jointly with someone else. This kind of reciprocal financial, practical arrangement might even involve your responsibilities for someone else. Because these planets are primarily favourable to you now - Venus and Jupiter in particular, this means you will come out on top in all these negotiations. In fact, others will just give you gifts or money and outright cash - out of the blue!
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Whoa Nelly! This week the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter will all sit directly opposite your sign. This does not mean that you are facing Gun at OK Corral. Admittedly, Mars will make you feisty and inclined to be impatient with others because they seem to be so annoying. But all the other planets will soften things. Mercury will make you eager to talk to others, especially partners and close friends; and Venus will make you amorous, receptive and easy-going. Jupiter is evidence that you are in a period of culmination in your life. You are enjoying good success. And yes, nothing satisfies like satisfaction. Note: All of these planets now offer you a chance to learn more about your style of relating to those who are closest to you. Take notes.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Have you ever noticed that when you have to work, you wish you didn't; but when you don't have work, you wish you did? This of course applies to a paying job. But we all have to work at this business of living, don't we? We are always working. And this week, your focus will be on the work you do and the tasks you set for yourself so that you feel good about how you take care of yourself and make your life work. Five planets now not only make you focus on your work, they also make you focus on your health. What can you do to improve your health? Think about this. What can you do to improve your efficiency, effectiveness and basic organization in your daily life? A work-related romance might begin for some. The overall tone of this week for you is one of self-improvement. "I'm almost perfect."
