This week begins with Neptune urging us to make the world a better place. Do something to be a lift in someone's day. Be friendly and kind. Make a donation. Help someone in need. Meanwhile, Uranus slips back into Taurus this week to stay until next spring. (When it returns to Gemini in late April 2026, it will stay there until 2033.) This shift backwards will help us to reassess finances, habits, and material anchors. If sudden changes arise in these areas, they will reveal the very places that are ready to evolve or change. In truth, change doesn't need to be chaotic if met with steady intention. I can face change with acceptance. I just stare ahead into the unknown - stoic -maintaining Resting Bitch Face.
This week you have an above average interest in financial matters. These might relate to inheritances, shared property and anything that is jointly held with others along with inheritances, wills, taxes and debt. The whole enchilada! As this week begins, you'll have a strong urge to feel charitable to others, especially people in other countries or from afar. You might make donations to large organizations like Save the Children (https://www.savethechildren.ca/. Or helping animals: https://www.worldanimalprotection.ca/. Even a small donation helps. And you'll feel better knowing you've done something to make the world a better place. Note: This is also a sexy, romantic week!
Get more sleep and more rest this week because you need it. Take cat naps. Snooze when you can. Partnerships and close friendships are your main focus now. However, at the beginning of the week when strong feelings of compassion and concern for others arise, most of you won't hesitate to make a donation to a meaningful charity. See Aries (above) for two examples. This is because Mars will be trine Neptune, and Neptune will be sitting in your Money House, urging you to be generous to those in need. Meanwhile, this week Uranus slips back into your sign until April next year, increasing your drive for freedom along with your desire to break down old patterns. Change is overdue!
Look for ways to work in partnership with someone for a needy cause. This might be to rescue animals, help children in need or homeless seniors. It could be one of many worthy causes because there is so much suffering in the world. Join forces with someone because Mars is in your House of Partnerships right now dancing with idealistic Neptune. You might even make an appeal to members of the general public? Meanwhile, this is a productive week for you because you're motivated to work hard and work as efficiently as possible. Fortunately, coworkers will be supportive. In fact, for some of you, a work-related romance might be percolating on the back burner.
Another playful week, where you want the freedom to express yourself, do what you want and set your own priorities. This doesn't mean you want to boss others around. You just want the freedom to be yourself and do what you want. Naturally, some of your choices will be fun-loving pleasures. Sports events, activities with kids, enjoyment of the theatre or the arts - whatever pleases you. You might get your garden ready for winter. You might do some baking. You will definitely carve out some time for yourself. Meanwhile, if you can do anything to improve the welfare of coworkers, or care workers, or animals - you will find this to be a gratifying experience. (See Aries.)
Home and family continue to be your main focus. Enjoy entertaining, and doing something to make where you live look more attractive. (After all, your home is your castle.) Meanwhile, at the beginning of the week, all of us will feel stronger feelings of charity, compassion and concern for others - animals, humans and the planet. However, Leos will most likely feel loving concern for children in distress. This is for two reasons: your sign has domain over children - all the time. (Leos are always sympathetic about the care of children.) But this week Neptune is in the part of your chart that "rules" children. You want to help. (See Aries above for Save the Children link.)
You have a busy schedule with short trips, errands, and appointments plus visits with siblings and relatives. You might also be reading, writing and studying more as well. This is why the pace of your days is almost frantic, and of course, you're making your beloved lists. This week you will be in your element because Virgo is the sign of service. You take pleasure in helping others and being useful and supportive. Look for opportunities to help others, especially at the beginning of the week because it will please you. Most likely, these opportunities will arise at home or within the family. In fact, an old proverb is almost a Virgo theme: "It's a joy to labour for those you love."
You're sociable and communicative; but you're private about your money. Right now, you're thinking about earnings and cash flow and you're playing your cards close to your heaving bosom. As fast as you pay down your debt, more looms up each week! (Well, you do love beautiful things including clothing.) You might also spend money in a charitable way because you're a caring person. You love your creature comforts, and you sympathize with those who suffer from depravation. (See Aries for suggestions.) Friends from the past, including siblings and relatives, are back in your world because of Mercury retrograde. Look good - you'll feel better.
More than any other sign, you're capable of seeing beneath the surface of things. You see the subtext. You can penetrate secrets. You also have an uncanny clairvoyance. Your deep understanding of things might prompt you to make donations or do what you can to help those who are less fortunate, especially at the beginning of this week. (See Aries for two possible choices.) You might also give money to loved ones, children, and people around you who are in need. Certainly, you are empowered now with both the Sun and fair Venus in your sign, making you charming and diplomatic with everyone. And once again - a reminder - this is an excellent time to buy wardrobe goodies for yourself.
Grab some quiet time to do some thinking. It's wise to ponder your new year ahead, which will begin with your birthday, which is looming on the horizon. Now is the perfect time to set goals, which will give you more clarity on future decision-making, and a clearer focus on what's important. Goals also give you a sense of purpose, plus better control over your future. At the beginning of the week, act on your humanitarian impulses to help others because you will feel personally gratified, which will make your efforts a win/win situation. This might assuage any anxiety you feel about meeting ex-partners or old friends from the past. It's good to feel good about yourself.
Enjoy increased involvement with friends as well as members of groups because this is an ideal time for you to be involved with organizations. You know that you can be useful, and at the same time, you can enjoy socializing. This week is a good time to share your hopes and dreams for the future with someone to get their feedback, which might be helpful. Meanwhile, at the risk of being a martyr, you're prepared to make an effort to help someone in need, especially at the beginning of the week. By prepared, I mean you're willing to make a sacrifice in terms of time, effort or money, which is admirable. (When we die, the only thing we take with us are the things we gave away.)
The Sun is still at the top of your chart, casting you in a flattering spotlight. This is why others admire you and might ask you to do a special job. Do say yes because whatever you do - even if it's minor - will please everyone. This is because you are "cloaked" in a way that makes you appear favourable, no matter what you do or don't do. Look for ways to use this popular energy to network with friends, groups and organizations about any cause that is close to your heart - something that will make the world a better place. This is one of your great strengths. You inspire like minds to jump on board and make a difference for those in need.
You're keen to broaden your horizons and expand your world through fascinating new knowledge, learning new skills, travel and talking to people from different backgrounds - whatever presents itself. Grab these opportunities if they come your way. For some, a new romance with someone "different" will be thrilling and exciting. Meanwhile, especially at the beginning of the week, you might make a name for yourself - inadvertently - by showing generosity to someone in need, or being involved in a movement, or some local effort to help animals, children, poor people, abused individuals - those who need food, money, medical help, housing, whatever. Your efforts to help might be a beacon for others to follow your example.
