SCORPIO (WATER) OCTOBER 24-NOVEMBER 20 HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!
This may not be the best time for seeking answers as you are not as open to suggestion as usual.
Rather than knock your head against a brick wall, take a step back and make a list of your options. In a very short period of time all will fall into place and that is when you should make your move. Over the past month or so it has not been easy saving money but by the middle of the week you will have made most of your purchases and financially things will ease up.
HINT: Good week to get out and mingle with friends.
SAGITTARIUS (FIRE) NOVEMBER 22-DECEMBER 21
Pay close attention to finances and, for the next three weeks, if you don’t really need it…don’t buy it. Although you are spending a great deal of time and energy at your job, this is a time for asking questions rather than for making decisions.
Things which seem wonderful today could turn out to be exactly the opposite of what you want and need three weeks from now. So, for now cut back and bide your time.
HINT: Always an optimist, you prefer to see the good in everyone and that is just one of the reasons why people are so attracted to you.CAPRICORN (EARTH)
DECEMBER 22-JANUARY 19
Someone you considered a close friend may let you down but before ending the friendship, take a step back and wait. If you still feel the same way within a few weeks, then reconsider the relationship. Professionally you continue to shine as you continue to take on more responsibilities. You don’t have nearly as much free time as you once had, but there is always a window of space open whereby you can visit with family and close friends.
Problems from the past fade as you realize that you are in a much better place than you were. HINT: Great week for pampering yourself.AQUARIUS (AIR)
JANUARY 20-FEBRUARY 18
You may find that you feel rather lonely towards the end of this week. Rather than stay home and brood about the situation, pick up the phone and invite some of your closest friends over for an impromptu party.
People you meet now could have a positive affect both socially as well as professionally, but wait a few weeks before making any final decisions. Professionally you continue working overtime, but soon your hard work will bear fruit and it will all be worthwhile.
HINT: A conversation with a water sign may leave you confused due to a temporary breakdown in communication.
PISCES (WATER) FEBRUARY 19-MARCH
Always ready to do anything for your family and friends, you need to take a step back and catch up on some much needed rest. Whatever problems they face will not worsen if you aren’t there to help.
As a matter of fact, sometimes all you can do is just love them and let them find their own answers.
Thoughts of starting a diet or joining a gym should be postponed for a week or two. Your chances of success are much better then. HINT: Your connection with a Cancer is stronger than ever these days.
ARIES (FIRE) MARCH 21-APRIL 19
You are coming very close to making an important decision but take your time.
Read between the lines, ask questions and listen carefully to what is being said. Your relationship with your partner and/or mate is stronger than ever and together you have become a solid, dependable force. People living far away are close to your heart and this is the week for reaching out and reconnecting. Although money and finances are not nearly as stable as you would wish, you are in a much better position than you were a few months ago…so relax.
TAURUS (EARTH) APRIL 20-MAY 20
This is the week for taking care of personal business and for getting your priorities straight. Over the past week or so you have been disappointed more than once and once you relax and realize that not only have things have worked out for the best, but you are now in a much better position than you were even a week ago.
You are blessed with loving family and friends and time spent in their company makes all the hard work worthwhile.
HINT: Financially you are managing very well and this week you can afford to buy a few inexpensive things which you have wanted.
GEMINI (AIR) MAY 21-JUNE 21
Delays, postponements and even cancellations are expected in the coming weeks and all you can do is let things move naturally, at their own pace. The less involved you are right now, the better. When dealing with a Scorpio, remember this person has a sharp barb, a strong mystical sense and a very long memory. Pay attention while driving in and around your home and stay focused while using any sharp instruments. A momentary lapse in concentration could cause you aggravation and delays.
HINT: Tuesday and Wednesday are perfect days for spending time with your partner and/or mate.
CANCER (WATER)
JUNE 22-JULY 22
It is true that everyone turns to you for help and advice but enough is enough.
The time has come for you to establish borders and stick to them. Even you can’t fix everything every time. Back off and begin to do things which make you happy. You will be amazed at how much better you feel. Time spent with a Capricorn will be extremely pleasant this week as the two of you enjoy each other’s company and have so much in common.
HINT: Financially, things continue to improve and now is the time for buying a few things you have been longing for.LEO (FIRE) JULY 23-AUGUST 22
A lot of energy is being focused on money and financial matters these days and this is a perfect time for you to sit down with the experts and get some serious advice. The final decision, of course will be yours.
Family matters continue to keep you busy but in the weeks to come all will settle down and once again you will be free to deal with your own interests.
Before signing any important papers, read the fine print carefully and then read it again.
HINT: The end of this week is a very good time for dealing with a project which needs some serious work. Once you begin you will be so happy you did.VIRGO (EARTH) AUGUST 23-SEPTEMBER 22
You continue working hard in and around your home and need to take a rest here and there.
You are pushing yourself a little too hard and need to make sure that you are not only getting enough rest, but that you are eating properly as well.
Always frugal you find it difficult throwing money away and this week is no exception. When searching for furniture or electrical appliances for your home you are willing to walk miles and get the best deal available.
HINT: The more you open up to your partner and/or mate, the better as this person really has your best interests at heart.LIBRA (AIR) SEPTEMBER 23-OCTOBER 23
After so many years putting everyone else’s needs first, you find that it is time to put your own name at the top of the list. This is not the week for making any major changes, but it is however a perfect time for making a list of things you wish for yourself in the coming year. A conversation with a water sign may not be as smooth or as pleasant as you hoped but the glitch is temporary and will smooth itself out in the weeks to come.
HINT: Money is tight this week so hold off any major purchases for a couple of weeks.
