TAURUS (EARTH)
APRIL 20-MAY 20
The time is right for you to take a step back and begin pacing yourself, whereby you will feel much more grounded, relaxed and ready to take on your next project.
During the weeks to follow you will be able to identify what is most important in your life and enjoy the fruits of all your labors. You have worked so hard for so long and deserve all the good things that come your way. Financially you continue avoiding any extravagant purchases while taking pleasure in the little things which make you happy.
HINT: Time spent with an older member of your family brings joy to you both.
GEMINI (AIR)
MAY 21-JUNE 21
Rather than rush ahead, this is the time for you to sit quietly and recap all you have done over the past few months. This is not the time to act hastily or to commit to any project which comes your way this week. Instead, if you are honest with yourself, you will be able to discover a weak spot in your plans and fix it before it becomes troublesome. Financially, money is a sensitive issue right now and the less you spend the better. When dealing with a family member, try to be a bit more flexible and supportive.
HINT: Patience with your partner and/or mate is preferable right now.
CANCER (WATER)
JUNE 22-JULY 22
Choose your friends carefully.
Not all friendships are meant to last a lifetime…but all will have an impact on your life. This week provides a perfect opportunity for you to go over a special project and prepare it for completion.
Money and financial matters need watching, and if you are careful you will be able to stay within your budget. If not, you will be playing ‘catch up’ for months.
HINT: People far away are on your mind and although you cannot be together physically you certainly can stay in touch. It isn’t the same, but is better than nothing.
LEO (FIRE)
JULY 23-AUGUST 22
This is not the time for a power play. It is the time for watching, learning and preparing your next move. When the time comes, you will be ready. Lately you have preferred staying at home or meeting with a friend or family member on a one-to-one basis as you haven’t had the energy to be exuberant, entertaining and enlightening to a group of strangers.
Conserve your strength as in a short time you will be back in the limelight doing what you do best.
HINT: Financially you hesitate when buying something for yourself, but throw caution to the wind when it comes to buying gifts for those you love. Less is more right now!
VIRGO (EARTH)
AUGUST 23-SEPTEMBER 22
If you can’t put yourself in someone else’s shoes, then how can you expect anyone else to understand where you are coming from? This week provides a perfect opportunity for you to mend a few ruffled feelings between yourself and a close family member. But, you will have to make the first move. Financially things are under control and you can see that everything is moving slowly in the right direction.
HINT: A conversation with another earth sign may leave you more confused than you were as the lines of communication between you are rather fuzzy now.
LIBRA (AIR)
SEPTEMBER 23-OCTOBER 23
Time spent with your partner and/or mate is just so wonderful these days that you don’t remember how you got along before they came along. This is a good week for finishing up projects rather than beginning anything new which may come along in the coming weeks. Financially you can’t help feeling frustrated that things are moving so slowly, but they are moving. Plans to meet with a sibling may be postponed as your schedules don’t blend this week.
Matters of property may arise this week and need to be examined carefully.
HINT: Trust yourself…everyone else does.
SCORPIO (WATER)
OCTOBER 24-NOVEMBER 20
When in doubt, trust your intuition and you won’t err. There is so much going on in your life right now and all you really want to do is spend some quiet time at home with your partner and/or mate and a few good friends.
Things begin to slow down in the weeks to come, but for now you need to continue putting forth your best effort.
HINT: Financially you have the feeling that for every two steps you take forward you are forced to take one step back. Don’t waste time and energy getting angry as there is nothing you can do to push things forward.
SAGITTARIUS (FIRE)
NOVEMBER 22-DECEMBER 21
On the one hand you have many opportunities from which to choose, while on the other hand obstacles continue popping up along the way which slows down your progress. Trust in yourself, and go with the flow. By forcing the issue you may overlook an important piece of information and all your work will be for naught. At the right time all will fall into place. The important thing is to remember that there is no one better than you and you are doing a fabulous job.
HINT: Financially, when in doubt consult with the experts.
CAPRICORN (EARTH)
DECEMBER 22-JANUARY 19
You thought you would be bored with too much spare time, but the opposite is true.
You are so busy these days that you don’t know where you are going to find the time and the strength to get everything checked off your list.
Your partner and/or mate is ready and willing to lend a helping hand the moment you ask. Rather than waste time looking back at what was, turn around and face the sun.
Wonderful things are waiting for you up ahead.
HINT: Financially things are tight, but you are well aware of the situation.
AQUARIUS (AIR)
JANUARY 20-FEBRUARY 18
Time spent at home with your family is exactly what you need this week in order to calm down from your busy schedule of the past few months. Soon, you will be off and running once again, so take advantage of this slight lull in order to relax and get your priorities straight.
Your new pace becomes calming once you get used to it. Financially you are watching your situation very carefully but that does not mean that you can’t pamper yourself and someone special once in a while.
HINT: Wait a bit before making any major changes or renovations in your home.
PISCES (WATER)
FEBRUARY 19-MARCH 20
Always on the move, you need to take a step back and learn how to relax and rest. This week provides a perfect opportunity for you to examine what opportunities lay ahead and what you really want to do with your life. As your thoughts develop you will discover that reaching your goal is more than just a dream and with a little planning and hard work you will be pleasantly surprised at how easily things fall into place along the way.
HINT: Financially you are spending a bit more than you had planned, so pay attention and start cutting back.
ARIES (FIRE)
MARCH 21-APRIL 19
On the one hand financially things are going along as planned, but on the other hand your thoughts are not clear and this is not the time for making any new or drastic decisions. The longer you wait the more opportunity you will have to examine the facts and get the information you are missing.
Time spent with earth sign will be not only interesting but will provide you with a different way of looking at things.
HINT: A project you are interested in may be delayed but not postponed. The more flexible you are right now, the better.
