CANCER (WATER) JUNE 22 – JULY 22 A natural sponge, you always absorb the emotions and feelings of the people closest to you and, this week you begin to relax as you see the growth and change that has made such a positive difference. Now it is your turn to take off and hibernate for a few days! Your thoughts continue to center on money and financial matters, but you have things well under control and if you continue to cut back on unnecessary spending you should be just fine.
HINT: The time has come for you to walk away from old fears concerning your partner and/or mate. Yesterday is over and tomorrow is wonderful!
LEO (FIRE) JULY 23 – AUGUST 22 If you can’t find a moment’s peace at home or in the office, pack up your laptop or iPad and go sit in a place where no one knows you, where the only obligation you have is to sit and create and enjoy the process. This is the week for you to walk away from everyone else’s business and to concentrate on your own needs. Socially, everyone wants to spend time with you and it will be your choice as to how much time and energy you have to spare.
HINT: Possible job offer may come from far away.
VIRGO (EARTH) AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22 Like a dog gnawing on a bone, you can’t let go of an idea until you have dissected it, examined it and reviewed every possible pro and con. This week you are going to have to take the next step which is to listen to what others think. Few have your powers of concentration, but they will add a different dimension to the situation which will provide the missing piece you have been searching for. Money matters are up and down as you continue to invest in different projects.
HINT: An old business venture from the past needs dealing with. The sooner you tie up those last few loose ends, the better.
LIBRA (AIR) SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 23 You have a lot more energy these days and are finally moving forward in your life. Both personally and professionally you have managed to rid yourself of some heavy baggage and the new, lighter you is happier than you have been in a long time. As you continue growing, you remain true to your values and prior commitments. When dealing with a partner and/or mate, you need to stand firm and establish boundaries which will, in the long run, be better for you both.
HINT: The people closest to you are not necessarily those who live nearby, but they are the ones who brighten your heart.
SCORPIO (WATER) OCTOBER 24 – NOVEMBER 21 So much is happening right now and the best place for you this week is to remain in the background where you can observe and prepare for the new projects which you are working on. There is a difference between maintaining a low profile and hiding in the shadows. The people who enter your life now will have a major affect on your professional career and you will be amazed at how easy it will be once the initial contact has been established.
HINT: No one knows better than you that when a door closes a bright window opens.
SAGITTARIUS (FIRE) NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21 Your days begin early and end late as you continue working overtime trying to get everything done on time. The good news is that everyone who comes into contact with you is amazed at how much you have accomplished in such a short time and your good name is growing better as the days go by. Not all your partners are pulling their weight and soon a decision will have to be made.
HINT: This is the time for dealing with money, partnerships and people living far away. You know what needs to be done and now have the means to do it.
CAPRICORN (EARTH)
DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 19 Change is on the way, and all your hard work is about to bear fruit, so remain focused. Not only is there a light at the end of the tunnel but a beautiful rainbow too. As the week progresses you will have more spare time and after catching up with some much needed rest, you can begin taking care of personal matters that have been placed on a back burner. You have choices and challenges and there is no one better than you to deal with both.
HINT: Even baby steps will eventually get you to where you need to be.
AQUARIUS (AIR) JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18 Not used to setbacks, you have found the last few months not only challenging but stressful. The lessons learned now will stand you in good stead for the rest of your life, so pay attention and appreciate the journey. The end results will be sweeter than you can imagine. Although money and finances are tight, you still have enough leeway to get away for a few days to visit with family and friends.
HINT: Don’t let past insecurities keep you down. You are not a lot stronger and smarter than you were then.
PISCES (WATER) FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20 Your time needs to be divided carefully between your family, friends and social responsibilities. This has been an extremely busy year for you both physically and emotionally and all you need right now is a few days on your own to heal and rest and unwind. You have the time and money and all you need now is the will to do something special for yourself. People from your past return and are interested in renewing their friendship. Sometimes it is better to face forward than to look back.
HINT: As tight as money is right now, you still can put a little aside for a trip in the future.
ARIES (FIRE)
MARCH 21 – APRIL 19 You continue juggling between your career, your work and the people closest to you. Soon you will tire of the activity and that is when you will need to make some serious decisions concerning your professional future. There is still plenty of time, so make your lists and think about the questions you need to ask. A trip this summer will be just what you need to give you the space you need as well as provide an opportunity to reconnect with some people you care about a great deal.
HINT: Monday and Tuesday are good days for taking care of personal business.
TAURUS (EARTH) APRIL 20-MAY 20 For far too long you have been frustrated feeling that you are getting nowhere and that all your hard work and planning has done little, if anything to get you closer to achieving your goals. Actually, the opposite is true but the changes have been subtle yet important. You are far wiser today and the experience has been priceless. Don’t lose faith in yourself or your worth! Financially things are about to improve and all your months of careful spending and saving will soon be a thing of the past.
HINT: A conversation with an old friend will prove very positive and important.
GEMINI (AIR)
MAY 21 – JUNE 21
Your life is far more pleasant these days but that does not mean that you can sit back and let things slide. There is still so much to be done and only you can make the important decisions. This is a time for reassessing your relationship with a family member. It is not too late to build a little bridge.
Changes in important meetings are expected this week so pay close attention to your schedule and double check dates, times and places.
HINT: Watch your spending and if you don’t have the cash, then wait.
