ARIES (FIRE)
MARCH 21-APRIL 19
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!! Ups and downs expected this week, so wherever possible take a step back and let things flow a bit without getting involved. You do not take orders easily this week and take more offence at the tone of the speaker than of the words spoken. Although you continue watching your finances, you will enjoy buying something special for someone important in your life. Professionally you continue to work hard but prefer working at your own pace rather than waiting for the rest to catch up.
HINT: Friday and Saturday are good days for taking care of personal business.
TAURUS (EARTH)
APRIL 20-MAY 20
This is the week to pamper yourself and splurge a little.
For months you have been squirreling money away ‘for a rainy day’ and you know you can afford it. Time spent with a Libra will be entertaining as you discover that you have more in common than you imagined. By the middle portion of this week you will be ready to work on a project which demands attention to detail, creativity and inventiveness.
HINT: A lot is going on these days behind the scenes, so take a break from the limelight and enjoy being an observer for a change.
GEMINI (AIR)
MAY 21-JUNE 21
Problems which plagued you over the past few weeks begin to dissipate as you are ready to face what you contributed to the situation and discover what you need to do in order to avoid falling into the same pit next time. Your relationship with your partner and/or mate has been rather tempestuous lately and this is the time for cooling down and remembering just what attracted you to each other in the first place. Together you make a great team, especially when you leave your egos at home.
HINT: Financially, you need to cut back a bit on your spending and if it isn’t essential this week, then don’t buy it.
CANCER (WATER)
JUNE 22-JULY 22
You are always ready to lend a helping hand to a family member or a close, dear friend, but sometimes, enough is enough. This week try to avoid volunteering and spend your time doing things which make you personally happy. Financially you continue to watch your bank balance rise and this week you can safely make a major purchase you have been dreaming about for far too long. Young people enjoy spending time with you, so adjust your busy schedule on Sunday or Monday to make room for them.
HINT: A conversation with your partner and/or mate will help you see things much clearer, so don’t hesitate to ask for help.
LEO (FIRE)
JULY 23-AUGUST 22
Time spent with an older person is just what you need to get some of the answers you have been searching for.
You appreciate their expertise as well as their patience.
Don’t let your imagination run away with you and when in doubt look for hard, solid facts. Only then will you be able to make a responsible decision. You may discover that you are rather compulsive with your spending now and this is a good week for leaving your credit card at home.
HINT: If you have the cash, then retail therapy is just what the doctor ordered.
VIRGO (EARTH)
AUGUST 23-SEPTEMBER 22
You may have the feeling this week that your partner and/or mate is not realistic enough, and rather than get into an argument, let them dream for a bit. You know that when the time is ripe for making any important decision they will turn to you for advice and listen carefully to what you have to say. Although you continue watching your finances carefully unexpected expenses and bills need attending to but if you are careful you should make it successfully through the month without going far over your budget.
HINT: Even though you are generally a stickler for convention and little side trip off the beaten path could help get some balance back into your life.
LIBRA (AIR)
SEPTEMBER 23-OCTOBER 23
Perfect week for working on a project which demands a little more imagination and less logic.
People are always interested in hearing what you have to say but this week you will be especially busy lecturing or simply discussing ideas with a group of like-minded people. Quiet time spent with a special person will help you relax and unwind over a simple dinner at home. Be wary of someone who talks a lot but avoids making eye contact.
HINT: Even your famous tolerance and patience will be tried by someone who pretends to know everything, when in fact they know very little.
SCORPIO (WATER)
OCTOBER 24-NOVEMBER 20
Lately you have been travelling quite a bit and this is a good week for getting off the merry-goround and settling down at home. The ‘down’ time will do you good and family and close friends will appreciate spending a little more time with you when you are not so stressed and rushed. Financially you are still concerned about your situation, but you are really doing the best you can so relax.
HINT: You may not have as much in common with a Capricorn as you had hoped but don’t give up on the connection just yet.
SAGITTARIUS (FIRE)
NOVEMBER 22-DECEMBER 21
You are so stressed and exhausted that your nerves are frazzled and you snap at the people closest to you who are really not to blame. You need to take a look at your goals and reassess your time frame. Perhaps if you can push your deadline back a few weeks you will have the quiet emotional space you need in order to do your best work without being so tired. Financially you are on top of the situation but with goals as high as you have set yours, you need to be wary of unnecessary spending.
HINT: Time spent with a Leo will be eye opening. But take your time before making any commitments.
CAPRICORN (EARTH)
DECEMBER 22-JANUARY 19
Things are finally falling into place as you continue to cross off items on your ‘to do’ list. Even though you do have a fabulous memory it is wise to keep writing things down so you will not only remember everything but get a larger picture of what you have left to do. In the weeks to come your schedule will ease up and that is when you will have the space to relax and enjoy the company of those closest to you. Great time for daydreaming and why not? Sometimes dream have a magic way of coming true! HINT: Time spent with an older member of your family will be much more enjoyable than you had anticipated.
AQUARIUS (AIR)
JANUARY 20-FEBRUARY 18
Although some of your plans have been forced onto a back burner, the time is right to learn from your mistakes and move forward. You have accumulated a great deal of knowledge over the past year or so and soon will be in a position to put all you have learned into action. Professionally you have a few questions which still need answers and until you are completely satisfied you will refrain from making any hasty moves.
HINT: The last few days of the week are good days for entertaining at home rather than going out. You are an excellent host and people are very happy to accept your invitations.
PISCES (WATER)
FEBRUARY 19-MARCH 20
You may not be seeing things as clearly as you think, so before making any large purchases, or major decisions, take a little time to rethink everything. When you are least expecting it, you will get some information you have been searching for which will help point you in the right direction. After days of taking care of others, you need a break to take care of yourself and some personal business that has been waiting for you to tackle.
HINT: Don’t hesitate to meet with another water sign. This person has your best interest at heart and you can speak freely in front of them.
TIP FOR THE WEEK: Good time for taking a step back in order to double check commitments and projects. Discover what is missing and what is superfluous.
