All Signs
Good news! This week marks the end of a series of retrogrades that have been creating hiccups, frustrations and delays since the beginning of the year. Fortunately, we will start to feel that life is "all systems go" because Mercury and Venus turn direct this week - and next week, Mars returns to Leo, the sign it was in when it went retrograde in the first week of December last year. Oh yes, delays, setbacks and misunderstandings will be reduced! "Right here in River City!" By midmonth, we'll be cooking on all six burners. Start making plans about what you want to accomplish for the rest of the year. Jobs? Vacations? Education? A fun escape? Meanwhile, I read that meaningless statistics are up 3.7 percent.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
You continue to feel empowered this week because the Sun is in your sign, boosting your energy. This occurs only once a year for four weeks, so make the most of this. Look around you because people and favourable situations are attracted to you more than usual. You might explore a new opportunity, make a deal or do something that's to your advantage. Please know that you're at the end of a window of time where you have been letting go of what is no longer relevant in your life. (The last time this occurred was from 1994-1996.) This window began in 2023 and it will be over in June of this year. A new world awaits!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Continue to play things low-key because at this time of year, your personal year is coming to an end, however, your new year will not begin until the time of your birthday. Therefore, you're in a time of limbo as it were. Actually, that makes this an excellent time to ponder and think about what you want for your new year ahead. By next week, when Mars moves forward in your House of Communications, you will be mentally charged and more enthusiastic about future plans - trust me. Meanwhile, interactions with younger, artistic people will delight. Relations with those who are close to you are so cozy, a friendship might turn romantic. Woot!
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
This is a lovely, sociable week. For starters, the Sun is in your House of Friendships, which turns your attention toward friends and groups to which you belong. You'll find it easy to work and cooperate with others. You might share your goals with someone. Meanwhile this week, both Mercury and Venus move forward at the top of your chart promoting your relations with parents, bosses, teachers, VIPs and the police. People see you in favourable terms and likewise, you're happy to see others as well. (For some of you, a relationship with a boss or an authority figure could become romantic.) The bottom line is that your relations with others are warm and rewarding, and this is a blessing.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
You look great in the eyes of others with the Sun at the top of your chart casting you in a flattering spotlight. You can't lose! It's magic! (Smoke and mirrors.) The thing to know is that this is happening. This once-a-year phenomena is working for you right now so you might as well use it to your advantage. (Gone in a few weeks.) Meanwhile, this week both Mercury and Venus will move forward in a part of your chart that encourages you to travel and explore opportunities in publishing, the media, or anything to do with higher education, medicine and the law. All of these areas might open up for you in a magical way.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
This is a tricky time for you. In December, Mars was in your sign, then it went retrograde and slipped back into Cancer in your 12th House. This journey of Mars in that particular House can be frustrating. For example, you might not get credit for what you're doing, or you might have to stay in the background. There's a strong chance you feel irritable with others. You might also create the wrong impression and undermine your position. (Unusual for you.) One upside is the workout you'll get by constantly pulling your foot out of your mouth. The good news is this is over in a few weeks. Meanwhile, gifts, goodies and favours from others will come your way now because financial delays will be a thing of the past. Ka-ching!
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Both Mercury and Venus have been sitting opposite your sign, and both of them have been retrograde. This retrograde influence has not helped your closest relationships and partnerships. The good news is that as of this week, they both start to move forward, which will bring a lighter, happier tone to your relations with those who are closest to you. You'll have a feeling that past irritations and stagnation are now behind you. In fact, you'll feel hopeful and happier to be with others. You'll find it easier to express your affection more easily and make your feelings clear to your partner. (Gosh) Having said that, fiery Mars will continue to make you competitive in sports and teamwork. Take it easy.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Remember to get more rest because you need it. (This need for more sleep will be gone in a few weeks.) Nevertheless, your ambition is strong and you're accomplishing a lot. Be encouraged to know that everything related to your health as well is everything related to your job and the work that you do will get a marvellous thumbs-up from the universe this week. Mistakes, delays and feelings of hesitation and self-doubt (especially related to your work) will be a thing of the past. This will give you a lift even if you still need to grab some cat naps. Remember to act on any opportunity to travel because you need a change of scenery.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You are still in work mode, which means you're getting a lot done. You might also be more health conscious than usual (doing regular squats in front of your fridge). The good news is that romance, relations with your kids and everything to do with the arts, socializing with friends, and appreciating the theatre and the entertainment world - all this fun stuff - will get a huge boost of energy! This means that even though you will continue to work hard, you will give yourself time off for good behaviour. You'll enjoy schmoozing with others. You'll enjoy playful activities with kids. Sports events and social outings will give you rewarding, happy times. Nice!
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
This week continues to be playful. Accept invitations to party and socialize. Sports events, fun outings, children's activities and anything related to the arts and the entertainment world will be excellent choices. However, you're also in touch with your own creative talents, which means this is the perfect time to express your artistic side. You don't have to be a professional. Remember: You're a verb, not a noun. It's the "doing" that counts. Meanwhile, Mercury retrograde might have attracted relatives to camp on your sofa? Starting this week, they will leave. (Short visits are wonderful. Long visits - not so much.) Redecorate and tackle repairs.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Home and family have always been important to you. In fact, right now, many of you are involved with a parent more than usual; while others are involved with family situations. Fortunately, you also have a chance to relax quietly at home. This week the good news is that because Mercury retrograde is ending, goofy mistakes, transportation delays and misunderstandings will reduce for your sign. Life will run more smoothly. You will feel more confident. Communications with others will be easier and happier. Not only that, you'll appreciate the beauty of your everyday surroundings more than usual. You'll be a living example of the fact that when you change the way you look at things - the things you look at change.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Your fast-pace continues - no question. (No rest for the wicked?) But the good news is that this week two planets that have been retrograde in your Money House will now turn direct, and then slowly begin moving forward again relative to planet Earth. (Naturally, in reality, the planets in the sky are always moving forward.) This means you can celebrate the fact that financial delays will be reduced. Payments will be made on time. You can expect money that is owed to you. You might even attract money, gifts and goodies to you from others. Very likely, you will also spend money on art and beautiful things for yourself and loved ones. You'll be singing, "We're in the money, the skies are sunny!"
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Life has been frustrating lately because both Mercury and Venus have been retrograding in your sign. This has created all kinds of mishaps, delays, frustrations, misplaced items, lost property, confused communications and transportation delays. The good news is that this week, both Mercury and Venus retrograde will be over! You will notice that your ability to function in an efficient way will be restored. Glitches will be reduced. Your communications will be enhanced, along with your charm and diplomacy. In fact, your ability to persuade and convince others will be remarkable because you will put a lot of yourself into what you say.
