CANCER (WATER) JUNE 22 – JULY 22
Just as you think your financial situation is balanced and under control, unexpected expanses crop up which cannot be postponed or ignored. In the weeks to come, if you are very careful, and budget your income honestly you should be able to ride out the storm. Not all the people who call themselves your friend really are and this is the time for weeding out those who are toxic and jealous.
HINT: Take some time to finish a project that has been sitting on your desk for far too long.
ARIES (FIRE) MARCH 21 – APRIL 19
Not everyone understands your motives and drive, but that should never stop you from working toward attaining your goals. You know what you wish to do and at this stage you also know what is missing.
