Aquarius

Using logic as a friend and helper to your deep intuition stands you well this week. Even more so in the years to come! Neptune is currently in the last degrees of your Sign. As he finishes up his work opening your internal wells of vision, you can prepare for what brings you the most ...

Capricorn

You can easily make the changes you want this week. Others champion your determination and sincerity. Make sure to give yourself breathing gaps in your schedule. Or you may feel dribbles of frustration! Your strength interweaves with the ability to handle wobbly structures. Trust your gut feelings, even if you’re a step ahead of the ...

Cancer

Everyone knows Cancers are named after the shell on the outside and the tender feelings inside. That’s why others must treat you well to keep your equilibrium. The world is in the midst of trying to rebalance itself. What you’re doing determines just how much you will put up with. The Mercury/Venus connection invites money ...

Pisces

The Moon and Chiron are exactly conjunct in Pisces on Friday. The Moon rules your feelings and values. Chiron is a healer, but often a wounding is involved that needs to be healed, whether metaphorical or emotional. A bit of a head’s up can help. It may be that you are crossing the bridge from ...

Gemini

Feeling busy? Then you’re probably a happy Gemini. If you’re not flying around doing ten things, life just don’t seem “normal.” Venus and Mercury connect in your house of partnership this week. Venus reminds us to treat ourselves well and let in a little indulgence. Mercury likes to communicate—after all, it rules your Sign! Watch ...

Sagittarius

That Sagittarian optimism is beginning to bubble up. Others may see you as vibrant 24/7, but you know how you’ve felt of late. However, with Mercury conjunct with Venus exactly on Friday, you are in touch with love, money, the arts and the body beautiful. Watch for a contrast in terms of the Moon/Chiron square ...

Libra

Librans are becoming more down-to-earth at this time. And time, come to speak of it, is part of the reason. Saturn in your Sign rules just that, plus structure and the bones of the body. Suddenly it all becomes clear. You have priorities which may have little to do with what you were taught and ...

Leo

Leos stand firm as the CEOs and Generals of the Zodiac. That’s a lot of pressure. But along with your leadership you need a sweet creature to pull the thorn out of your paw. It’s almost impossible for a Leo to talk about what bothers them to any degree. Ruling a group or organization doesn’t ...

Scorpio

As you are well aware, Scorpios are born for power. But does it feel like you’re pulling your punches lately just to “get along?” There are benefits for Scorpios with patience, of which you have plenty when motivated. Mercury and Venus are in your financial house. It’s bound to be a plentiful week. Watch for ...

Aries

You’ll have to make your own rules to get through this one. Uranus in your Sign, still retrograde, seems to reverse forward motion whenever it wants to. Neptune is retrograde too, shaking out those old belief systems (or letting them drop through the mist). Venus and Mercury have sidled over to your area of long ...

Virgo

Virgos are shy creatures, and pure and lovely when you step away from gauzy veils that obscure. Comfort in sharing your feelings flows and expands this week. Venus and Mercury are the same degree in your area of home base, so that love and expressing it become one and the same. Watch for the Moon/Chiron ...

Taurus

The Venus/Mercury conjunction this Friday brings you an auspicious week. Venus, your ruler, allows benefits from large organizations, corporations, shared values and your part in them. Talk about the need to hang onto things—not. Jupiter retrograde in your Sign can make things feel shaky. It has the dual purpose of helping you realize what your ...
