AQUARIUS (AIR)
JANUARY 20-FEBRUARY 18
Close friends and siblings will take up much of your spare time this week and although you would rather be doing something else, you will soon realize just how lovely it is spending time together. Financially all is well and you are more interested in scouting out either a new job or a different position at the one you already have. It isn’t that you are unhappy, rather that you are bored.
Use the knowledge and contacts you have made over the past few years to help you make your move. HINT: Plan to entertain at home over the weekend rather than go out.
PISCES (WATER)
FEBRUARY 19-MARCH 20
Be wary of unnecessary spending this week as you are itching to buy gifts for one or two people you really care for. Before taking out your card, check to see if you really can afford it. Sometimes window shopping can be as pleasant as buying and your bank account will bless you. A conversation with another water sign will help you to see things much clearer as this person not only has a vast amount of experience but always wishes you well. HINT: An elderly member of your family is on your mind and somehow you need to find a pocket of space this week to share with them.
ARIES (FIRE)
MARCH 21-APRIL 19
You are in such a hurry to get things done that there is a serious chance that you will overlook one important point which could cause you problems along the way.
Take a step back and if you can’t see the forest for the trees have someone close to you who you absolutely trust to over the facts with you. Financially you are tired of holding back but soon you will be happy that you were a bit frugal now. HINT: The middle portion of this week is a good time for an open, honest discussion with your partner or mate. This person is always ready to lend a helping hand and should be brought up-to-date.
TAURUS (EARTH)
APRIL 20-MAY 20
You are getting ready to consider making a pivotal professional decision. Always ready to take your time, you continue to gather facts, discuss your plan with your partner or mate as well as a favorite colleague or two. Financially you continue to enjoy yourself while staying within your budget even though you haven’t managed to put as much money aside as you would wish. HINT: When dealing with family remember to keep your own needs high up on your agenda. Even though you are always ready to lend a shoulder to lean on or any other help, you need to keep your own needs uppermost in your mind also.
GEMINI (AIR)
MAY 21-JUNE 21
You may have to adjust your schedule this week to accommodate some last minute changes which cannot be postponed. This should not prove to be much of a problem as your agenda is rather flexible at this time and you should be able to fit everything in. Your thoughts turn toward the past as you remember and miss some people who are either living far away or who are no longer included in your circle of friends. HINT: Tuesday and Wednesday are perfect days for dealing with money and discussing your situation with your financial advisor.
CANCER (WATER)
JUNE 22-JULY 22
This is a good week for sitting down with your partner or mate in order to discuss some family matters which need both of your expertise.
You supply the emotion and memory and they supply the facts and figures. Together you will always find a solution which is amenable to you both. Financially you continue juggling a bit but after this month you should be on much firmer ground. Take some time to rewrite a letter, document or the latest chapter of your novel! HINT: You continue working hard but this week you feel the need to get away someplace for a few hours to simply rest and relax.
LEO (FIRE)
JULY 23-AUGUST 22
You really have a great deal on your shoulders right now what with your professional obligations and your personal commitments, however this week you will find the time to walk away, close the door and spend a bit of time simply pampering yourself. It is the little pleasures which bring you the most joy. Your close circle of friends always adds some spice to the mix and you are rarely bored! HINT: Financially you continue trying to save money even though you have had quite a lot of gifts which could not be ignored. Never mind, next month will be easier on your pocket book.
VIRGO (EARTH)
AUGUST 23-SEPTEMBER 22
Instead of trying to convince your partner or mate that you are right, listen to them. And this time really pay attention.
They know you and are not cowed or swayed by your forceful way of speaking when you feel a bit intense. You have a choice...
choose wisely. Financially all is under control and no one is better than you at saving than you, or perhaps your Taurus friend. When you get tired of living frugally give them a call. HINT: The latter portion of this week will be filled with meetings and professional obligations. Do your homework and be prepared to answer some important and detailed questions.
LIBRA (AIR)
SEPTEMBER 23-OCTOBER 23
You wish you could save more and have a larger nest egg, but the truth is that you are doing the best you can and are in a much better and safer positon now than you have been in a long time. Monday and Tuesday are good days for getting away from your desk and inviting your partner or mate to a business lunch at your favorite restaurant. You get your best brainstorming done that way. HINT: A conversation with a sibling who lives far away will make you both long for the time when you can physically be together again.
SCORPIO (WATER)
OCTOBER 24-NOVEMBER 20
Your intuition is high and you will quickly realize just who you can trust and who you need to be wary of. When the time is right share your thoughts with your partner or mate. You will be amazed to see that this person is not only and the same page but has been waiting for you to open the conversation. Financially, even though you do not have all the money you would like at your disposal, you have enough to live comfortably without getting into debt. HINT: This is a good week for getting things done so be prepared to put in some long hours.
SAGITTARIUS (FIRE)
NOVEMBER 22-DECEMBER 21
For so long you have been carrying a great load of responsibility on your two shoulders and the time has come for you to either call in the Marines, or reach out to someone you trust who can help you walk through the problem quietly and in an organized manner. The solution is at hand, so don’t panic and don’t give up. Your relationship with an air sign always brightens your day and any time you are in the same room laughter can be heard. HINT: Finances are uppermost on your mind but soon you will have the answers you need.
CAPRICORN (EARTH)
DECEMBER 22-JANUARY 19
This is the time for you to think of yourself and your own needs. Always ready to assist those closest to you there comes a time when you need to put your own name at the top of the list. This is one of those times. All is well and will be even better once you have realized just how simple the answer is to the question you have been asking. Financially you are managing well and there are no surprises on the horizon. HINT: When dealing with a fire sign try to remember that this person is really all bluff and bluster, and underneath is a pussycat not a ferocious lion.
