LEO (FIRE) JULY 23 – AUGUST 22

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!! Try to keep your schedule loose this week as unexpected interruptions will cause you to change your plans.

Things are finally looking up and after months of inactivity you are now eager and ready to roll up your sleeves and get to work. The people you meet now will have a very positive effect on you professionally, so get out and mingle. Try to find a quiet corner where you can relax, think and plan your next move.

HINT: There are so many people who want to be your friend and only you can decide who to admit into your inner circle.

VIRGO (EARTH) AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22

The time has come to let bygones be bygones and to get on with the rest of your life. Wasting energy on past hurts may feed the fire but it won’t get you anywhere. Learn from your mistakes and move on. This is a great week for getting things done which require a steady hand, a keen mind and a lot of patience. When asked to join a new group take your time. Nothing will happen if you wait a bit before committing yourself.

HINT: Be patient with your partner and/or mate as this person needs a bit more space.

LIBRA (AIR) SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 23

Although money and financial matters continue to weigh heavily on your mind, you are in a much better place than you have ever been. A door may close but a window will soon open presenting you with a fantastic view that you might have missed. When dealing with your partners and/or mate remember that this time your own needs must come first, and only then can you take into account what they want. For far too long you have bent over backwards trying to please everyone else. Now it is your turn to be happy.

SCORPIO (WATER) OCTOBER 24 – NOVEMBER 21

This is a good time for channeling some of that hidden energy and pushing forward an idea you have been thinking about for some time. Once the pieces are all in place you will be amazed at how quickly your dream becomes a reality. Professionally, take a step back and let things move at their own pace. By forcing the issue, you may end up with a different result than you had hoped for.

HINT: Dealings with your partner and/or mate take on a different tone as you begin to push your own needs forward.

HINT: A person living far away keeps you close to their heart.

SAGITTARIUS (FIRE) NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21

The joy you receive from a job well done overrides the stress of your workload but you still need to pace yourself and leave blocks of space where you are free to rest and recharge.

Money and financial matters continue to be on your mind but are aware of the situation. This is the week for taking an extra moment to double check your schedule and wherever possible to read the fine print, send mail special delivery and take detailed notes.

HINT: Quality time with your family is long overdue.

CAPRICORN (EARTH) DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 19

The next few weeks will provide a perfect opportunity for you to deal with past losses, get a different perspective on things and to finally reclaim your old power. It is time! You sometimes forget just how valuable you are at work and what a fabulous friend you are, so take a moment to not only love yourself but to like yourself more.

HINT: Although you have a very busy schedule, try to find some time to spend with a female member of your family. It’s been too long since you took off and just had a fun day.

AQUARIUS (AIR) JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18

This is the week for seeing things differently and for getting a new understanding of yourself and the many opportunities which are coming your way. Be patient. It may take a little more time until you find the perfect fit for what you need, but when you do, you will realize that the wait was well worth it. People are attracted to you and this is a good time for arranging important meetings.

HINT: Be patient with your partner and/or mate as there may be a breakdown in communication which could cause some bruised feelings.

PISCES (WATER) FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20

You don’t have as much patience as usual with your co-workers and work better on your own right now.

After so many months of hard work, you simply need a break where you can rest both physically as well as mentally. Everyone turns to you for help and you are simply tired. Time spent with another water sign will do much to boost your spirit and feel encouraged to push on.

HINT: When a door closes a window opens and this time the window revealed a fabulous view!

ARIES (FIRE) MARCH 21 – APRIL 19 Time spent with old friends is exactly what you need, so take the initiative and make plans to travel. When speaking with a fire sign take your time as there is so much energy between you that your conversation may develop a short circuit causing an unfortunate misunderstanding.

Pay attention to finances this week as you tend to buy outrageously expensive gifts or things you honestly do not need.

HINT: Your relationship with a sibling is better than ever now and this is the time for mending fences.

TAURUS (EARTH) APRIL 20-MAY 20 You relate well with others and people are anxious to be in your company. The recent contacts you have made will soon bring an unexpected and positive outcome as your good name and professional reputation precedes you.

When dealing with people in authority simply be yourself and you cannot go wrong. Don’t be surprised if a family member irritates you this week. It is expected; it isn’t serious and it will quickly pass.

HINT: The road you are travelling is bumpy but the ride is exciting and the end results will be far beyond your expectations.

GEMINI (AIR) MAY 21 – JUNE 21 This is a good time for pampering yourself and spending some money on a new wardrobe or a trip to a spa. You have earned it. For far too long you have been working overtime trying to make ends meet and have ignored your own needs. This week you will have a very interesting conversation with an acquaintance which will surprise you. Take our time before making any commitments. In the weeks to come if you still feel the same way then initiate a further meeting.

HINT: This weekend try to spend some time alone.

CANCER (WATER) JUNE 22 – JULY 22

Always ready to reach out and lend a helping hand, this is the perfect week for you to retreat and hibernate.

Actually, it has been far too long since you had any real quiet time for yourself and if your home is too noisy then go to your favorite happy place, preferably someplace with water. A new opportunity has opened for you and the sooner you grab on and take advantage of it, the better.

HINT: Money—if you don’t need it then don’t buy it!**
