ARIES (FIRE)
MARCH 21-APRIL 19
There is no avoiding it, this week the accent is on money and finances. You have wonderful ideas and the plans you are making are solid, so rest easy. However, financially you may end up spending more than you had bargained for, so move slowly and double check everything. In the long run all will eventually be exactly as you had hoped. Time spent with a sibling on Tuesday or Wednesday will be wonderful for you both, so try to arrange a meeting.
HINT: You are extremely creative and this is a good week for working on a project which will highlight your skills.

It has been a long time since you didn’t have to look at the clock. Financially you have been so careful which allowed you to splurge a little over the past few weeks. Now, however it is back to being careful once again.
