ARIES

Mar 20-Apr 19

♥♥ ¥¥¥ ♣♣♣

The Moon streams across your sector of romance over the weekend, chased by the Sun. By Thursday, this heart-expanding, warming luminary enters your sector of love. If you can’t find time for beauty, silken massages, or expressing your empowerment, you’ll be missing out. Focus on home becomes complete, and creativity rules the day.

TAURUS

Apr 20-May 19

♥♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣♣♣

It takes a lot for Taurus the Bull to see red. You like to live in a world of beauty, ruled by Venus as you are. This week, there’s reason to let your famously unshakable stance be seen. Someone may have tried to undo all your good work, or convince you that your perspective is awry—but it is not. You are accurate. Stand your ground, especially if it’s on behalf of someone else.

GEMINI

May 20-Jun 20

♥♥♥ ¥¥¥ ♣♣♣

Mars, Mercury, and the Sun are in your solar second house: money, management, and making it happen. You’re moving so fast, you even surprise yourself. Numbers in accounts flow freely and increase with your energized focus. It’s OK to talk about it. In fact, Jupiter in your sector of communication would want you to. On Monday, the money moves into your home base.

CANCER

Jun 21-Jul 21

♥♥ ¥¥¥¥ ♣♣♣♣

As your career continues to dance a pirouette around you, you may be spinning like a top. Changes are faster than sleight of hand as you move into a power position. You may not feel all- powerful. In fact, you may think the cards are stacked against you. But because the Moon rules family and also the sign of Cancer, your movements are felt like the beating of your heart.

LEO

Jul 22-Aug 21

♥♥♥♥ ¥¥¥ ♣♣♣♣♣

The Moon in your sign Friday and Saturday makes way for a creative space in your weekend. You need sun and a beach, or a heart-warming film of adventure and love to sink your teeth into. You’re likely to empathize with romantic foibles as Pallas Athene is retrograde in your house of intimacy. Venus transits out of big-cat Leo on Saturday, but don’t worry: by August she will return.

VIRGO

Aug 22-Sep 21

♥♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣♣

While details drive you crazy, they also sort of save you. Not only do you get a rush of joy and pleasure when everything is organized; your pinpoint accuracy puts you in a fulcrum position. Naturally modest, you may not see yourself as the power player, but in fact, you’re a producer when others can’t be. Watch for Jupiter and Venus whispering of greatness: it’s coming.

LIBRA

Sep 22-Oct 22

♥♥ ¥¥¥ ♣♣♣♣

Ah, the swinging scales of justice. You didn’t ask for this, at least not this lifetime. Is it possible the karmic north node of Libra brings things to the surface to balance the past? Are you pushed to your spiritual limit? The test is in holding your heart true to those you love, even if others don’t yet understand. The Moon in your sector of friendship reflects compassion this weekend.

SCORPIO

Oct 23-Nov 21

♥♥♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣♣

There’s nothing worse for a Scorpio than making plans and having something just sweep your schedule into smithereens. Looking from the stars, trust issues are coming to a head. If you don’t have someone or something in your life you can believe in, know that you’re here for a reason. Let yourself be held by the greater good which knows you have light and wisdom within. Saturn in Scorpio will triumph.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov 22-Dec 20

♥♥ ¥¥¥ ♣♣♣♣

Are the stars just playing with you, twinkling gleefully as you continue to slog away? Or are they bringing some sort of statement into your already overly full life? Remember that Uranus is in your sector of love, romance, and creativity—and children. There are going to be stops and starts, and you will not be able to be in charge. This is not a reflection of your personal power; it is an upgrade to universal flow.

CAPRICORN

Dec 21-Jan 19

♥♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣♣♣

Mars passes through an opposition with Pluto in your sign. You’re energized, you’re feisty, but a part of you is letting go. What that may be is up to your karmic template. Do you continue to fight? Do you have a choice? If you don’t, that’s what you came in to do. Don’t worry that it doesn’t come with a paycheck. As ways of life continue to change around the planet, you will be free to pursue a more satisfying path.

AQUARIUS

Jan 20-Feb 17

♥♥♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣♣

As the Moon transits opposite your sign over the weekend, you may be forced to see another person’s point of view. Their attitude or opinion may not be something you initially agree with. You may feel they’re being critical, or they may think that of your perspective. Then the week unfolds, and you see the wisdom in their ideas, while they understand yours too.

PISCES

Feb 18-Mar 19

♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣♣♣

It’s not that you can’t get your work done, it’s that the flow of energy has its own stops and starts. Just when you think you can move forward, Uranus interrupts. When you think it’s all over or too late, you then cover much more ground than expected. In these unusual times, remember your heartfelt response is as important as the proactive steps you take.
