The 2025 Annual Forecasts are available for pre-order. Annual Forecasts will be sent via e-mail on January 1st.
The astrological forecast is not dramatic this week. There are no Mercury Retrogrades for the rest of the year. This week there is no Full Moon or New Moon. The only two points of interest are that the Sun and Mercury are in Scorpio; and Venus, Mars and Jupiter are in Virgo. Scorpio is the sign of medicine (all aspects of medicine including psychology). Virgo is the sign of wellness (healthy eating, vitamins and disciplines that maintain health and prevent disease). Virgo rules the intestines. So here we have a strong emphasis on health for everyone! People are either trying to stay healthy or get their health back. Hmmm, Mark Twain was worried that reading too much advice about health could cause him to die of a misprint.
Probably more than any other sign, you are focused on your health right now. You want to do whatever you can to enjoy good health, which means you are thinking about what you eat and how much exercise you get (or don't get). Groan. However, the emphasis of three planets in this same part of your chart also shows that you are just as focused on your job. Venus, Mars (your ruler) and lucky Jupiter will bring you opportunities! And Jupiter will keep bringing opportunities this year and next year to you to find work that is fulfilling and enjoyable. This means you can either improve your current job or find a better job! Right now, fiery Mars gives you pride in your job plus lots of energy to work hard.
This cluster of Venus, Mars and Jupiter spells fun, romance and playtime for Taurus. This is the year to enjoy vacations! You will also enjoy vacations next year, as well. Hmmm. You are not into self-denial now. You want to have fun, and you intend to go after it! This month your sex drive is strong, which means physical relationships have appeal. (Nudge, nudge.) Relations with children are bit of a mixed bag. In one way, you will enjoy playful times with kids, and yet, conflict with one of your kids is also likely. Romantic relationships will be affectionate and sweet. Likewise, serious partnerships are also rewarding. This is a wonderful time for love and romance.
You're putting a lot of energy in two areas of your life: You want to work hard because this is where you feel fulfilled. This includes mental work because you find it easy to pay attention to details; plus you're keen to be involved in a hands-on level. However, you also have a strong involvement with home, family and real estate. Great! In a 24 year stretch, this year and next year, are the best times for you to benefit from real estate. This means you can expand your home, get a better home or speculate. Increased chaos and activity at home are happening, but you can handle this. You will also enjoy entertaining at home and making your digs look more attractive. Yup, home is where the art is.
Life goes on. You go to work; you have responsibilities. This is a given. Nevertheless, the main focus in your chart now is fun, play and pleasure! You want the freedom to do your own thing! You feel prankish and playful. In addition, you're enjoying reading and playing games for amusement, especially games that require mental agility. Those who sell, market, teach, write and act will do well. It's a busy pace for you right now. But in this busy pace, you are taking time to smell the roses. In fact, you notice the beauty in your surroundings more than usual. That's nice. Appreciation is important in life.
There are two areas that now have a strong focus for you: home, family and your private life; and money, cash flow and earnings. That sums it up for you. At this time, you are hunkering down at home more than usual. Family discussions are important. Many of you are also focused on home repairs. There is no question that three planets in your Money House have you thinking about cash flow, money and earnings. (Oh yeah.) Leos don't like to be broke. You want cash in your pocket so you can share the wealth with others. Plus you like to pick up the tab and show people a good time! That's why you're putting out so much energy to work hard to earn money.
With three planets in your sign (Venus, Mars and lucky Jupiter) you're gangbusters! Naturally, lucky Jupiter will favour you all this year until the winter of next year, which is a fabulous blessing! This last happened 12 years ago and will not happen again until 2027. That means that in a 24-year stretch - you are the winner! Make the most of this. Do not take your life for granted. The opportunities that you have to explore now will not so easily come again. This week, you are high energy because fiery Mars is in your sign. And with Venus there as well, at least for half the month, you are charming and oh so diplomatic. Yeah, everyone loves you.
Both the Sun and Mercury are in your Money House right now. This means you're giving a lot of thought to the things that you value. You are also giving a lot of thought to your possessions and whether or not they serve your needs, or they are just an albatross around your neck. That's why you will make an effort to establish greater control of your life through what you own, including money. This is why you're giving thought to business and commercial affairs. You might also be shopping more than usual. But in the bigger picture, because three planets are "hidden" in your chart - you, too, are keeping a low profile.
This is a powerful time for you with both the Sun and Mercury in your sign. You're pumped with energy and eager to talk to others. People and favourable circumstances are attracted to you. Venus, Mars and Jupiter are in a part of your chart related to friendships, clubs, groups and associations. Jupiter guarantees that this year and next year will be a popular time for you! And this month, you're enjoying friends, being physically active in sports, and perhaps, competing with someone. Meanwhile, back in the boudoir, fair Venus makes you cozy and affectionate. A friend could become a lover. (No surprise - Scorpios like recreational sex.)
You're playing it low key because both the Sun and Mercury are hiding in your chart. This makes sense because your birthday looms ahead, which means your personal year is coming to an end. What could be more appropriate now than planning for your new year? What are your ideas and expectations for your new year? Despite the need to strategize, on an everyday basis, your ambition is strong. This is timely! Jupiter will attract chances for you to promote your reputation and put your name up in lights; while Mars motivates you to go after what you want. Perfect combo!
You're popular! Enjoy hanging out with others, especially younger people. Not only will this increased popularity be fun, it will benefit you because all your interactions with others will help you this month. It's important to know this. Don't question it. One way others will help you is by giving you feedback if you share your hopes and dreams for the future. Their feedback might be important. Another way could be related to travel, higher education, medicine, the law or something to do with publishing and the media. You have lots of opportunities in those areas, and meanwhile, if others can help you this month -- ha! Connect the dots. Meanwhile, travel anywhere you can. Bon voyage!
This is a powerful month for you. Everyone thinks you're fantastic. This is why you will be asked to take on increased responsibilities. Just say yes because you won't have to do anything special to dazzle them. Meanwhile, Venus, Mars and Jupiter are all in one of your Money Houses, which means you can get money and "stuff" from others. Obviously, this is a good month, and in fact, a good year to ask for a loan or a mortgage. You might also get an inheritance. You might benefit indirectly through your partner. You might even benefit simply because other people let you use something they own. Ha! You're sitting pretty!
This month you need a change of scenery! You crave adventure and new knowledge. This same planetary influence will also help you explore publishing, the media, the law, medicine and anything to do with higher education. The next few weeks are ideal for you to study or have lofty conversations about philosophy, politics and religion. Meanwhile, Venus, Mars and Jupiter are all opposite your sign energizing your friendships and partnerships. This year and next year are ideal times to get married. They are also ideal years to begin a new partnership. But, oh oh, as long as Mars is opposite your sign, you're annoyed with others; and Mars will not move away until mid November. Yikes!
