TAURUS (EARTH)
APRIL 20-MAY 20
Over the past month or so you have started making small, orchestrated moves toward a professional change you want. This week sees an active effort on your part – you have done your homework, asked the necessary questions and are ready to throw your hat into the ring. Trust yourself. When the right one comes along, you will know it. Short, but exciting mini-vacations are on the horizon so start putting money aside now. You won’t regret the effort. HINT: By the end of this week you will feel a breakthrough in the clouds letting the sun shine in.
GEMINI (AIR)
MAY 21-JUNE 21
Reaching out to old friends will only work if there is honesty and openness between you. Until you are ready to make the first move and put in the work toward building a sturdy bridge, take your time. Where money and financial matters are concerned, you have managed to smooth things over and even put some funds aside. That does not, however, mean that you can go on a wild spending spree. One perfect rose sometimes says far more than a dozen mediocre ones. HINT: Enjoy the last few days of this week with your partner or mate. It has been too long since you had some one-on-one time.
CANCER (WATER)
JUNE 22-JULY 22
Sometimes dreams really do come true and lately you are so grateful. Unexpected pleasures are extraordinary and it about time you got back some of the love you lavish on those you care deeply about. Financially things are far better than you had hoped, yet not nearly as solid as you want them to be. You know what to do in order to rectify the situation. HINT: The lines of communication between yourself and a Taurus are wide open by the end of this week and that is when you can do your best brainstorming.
LEO (FIRE)
JULY 23-AUGUST 22
Think big! Only you can be the ringmaster in the circus your life seems to have taken over the past month or so. Take a step back and tone down the drama. All is working out just fine, and even better than you had hoped. Financially you have no choice but to cut back for the next few weeks. By then your cash flow should be moving steadily once again and that is when you can relax. Try to find a quiet corner to think and begin creating your newest work. With a notebook, a pen and a cup of coffee in your favorite coffee shop you can write the next bestseller. HINT: Tuesday and Wednesday are good days for taking care of personal business.
VIRGO (EARTH)
AUGUST 23-SEPTEMBER 22
There is no shame in taking a step back in order to catch up on some much-needed rest. You can’t keep up the hectic pace you have set for yourself for much longer without it affecting your health in some way. Better you put the brakes on than get sick and have no other choice. It is also time you realize that few have the work ethic, the depth of focusing on minor details, the ability to sacrifice today so that tomorrow will be better, than you do. So stop being so disappointed when those you care about fall short. HINT: Financially all is well. Take your partner or mate out for an expensive meal to celebrate.
LIBRA (AIR)
SEPTEMBER 23-OCTOBER 23
You are enjoying a period of plenty and although you might have wished for more, you certainly can’t complain at the bounty you are receiving today. Sharing thoughts and feelings with your partner or mate continues to strengthen the already solid bond you share. The time is right for all forms of communication, for beginning a new project and more importantly for cementing an important professional relationship. HINT: You discover that you are far more optimistic these days, and although financially things are not solid enough for you to relax your hold on the reins, they are getting better.
SCORPIO (WATER)
OCTOBER 24-NOVEMBER 20
Due to one problem or another, the lines of communication between yourself and your partner or mate have not been at the highest level you have enjoyed in the past, but all that is about to change for the better the last day or two this week. Trust yourself and use your intuition when trying to unravel a tricky problem. The answer will be a lot simpler if you remember to keep the threads loose and stay as flexible as possible. HINT: Financially you may be trusting a bit too much on luck rather than on hard work this week. Think about it.
SAGITTARIUS (FIRE)
NOVEMBER 22-DECEMBER 21
Create a line you won’t cross and you will stay within the workable borders you have established. Once you have become fully organized you will see the error of your past ways and will be ready to make the changes necessary for you to achieve your ultimate goal. The major problem is financial, and if you haven’t already got a financial adviser, then get one. Together you will work out a doable program which will benefit one and all. HINT: Don’t get discouraged. Few could do what you have done and even fewer could accomplish what you have managed to accomplish.
CAPRICORN (EARTH)
DECEMBER 22-JANUARY 19
You have managed to organize your day so that you have enough time for professional obligations, personal commitments and for just taking some time off for yourself. The feeling of exhaustion you have been struggling with has only proven the fact that there are not nearly enough hours in the day for you to accomplish all that you have set out to do. Financially you are making ends meet a lot better and easier than you had anticipated. Relax and splurge a little on yourself for a change. HINT: Time spent with an older member of your family will help you to get your priorities straight.
AQUARIUS (AIR)
JANUARY 20-FEBRUARY 18
Once you make your mind up there is no stopping you, and off you go full steam ahead. Don’t worry, you have covered all your bases and have checked and double checked the items on your bucket list. Time spent away from the office is just what you need in order to relax and recharge. A short trip is coming up, and if you don’t put a little money aside you may discover that you are a tad short for cash a few months from now. HINT: Time spent at home is a lot more interesting right now, so prepare to act the happy host and enjoy relaxing with your partner or mate and some close friends.
PISCES (WATER)
FEBRUARY 19-MARCH 20
Your mind continues working overtime, and even though you may not have a pencil in your hand it does not mean you are not plotting, planning and creating. This is your week to begin a best-selling novel, create a new and exciting garden or take some time off to sit by a body of water and let the waves soothe your soul. For far too long you have been scrimping and saving and paying off debts… yours as well as other family members’. Stop! Let someone else carry the load at least until you get your wind back. HINT: A conversation with an earth sign will help ground you.
ARIES (FIRE)
MARCH 21-APRIL 19
Finally you feel as you have come out from under a cloud and are ready to dust yourself off and get moving! The last few weeks has not been lost time. Instead it has provided you with some space to plan, plot and pursue. You are now concentrating on how to increase your income while reducing spending… a win-win situation. Keep up the good work! Before arranging a meeting with an air sign, calm down, count to 10, and if you still feel the same initiate the rendezvous. HINT: Time spent with a Taurus is perfect and pleasant this week.
