What’s in the stars for the week ahead?
By Cathryn Moe
ARIES
Mar 20-Apr 19
♥♥ ¥¥¥ ♣♣♣♣
This is your week. Act on your instincts and run with them. Mars enters Aries on Friday, and Venus follows Saturday. This is a great time to take a lost weekend. Even the Moon is in your sign, amplifying your feelings, reminding you of what’s important. Something behind the scenes still needs to be addressed. With Neptune in your solar 12th house, it’s unlikely to be pinned down for final resolution just yet. The Sun conjuncts Neptune on Thursday—something slippery may show up in the spotlight.
TAURUS
Apr 20-May 19
♥♥♥ ¥ ♣♣
Mars enters your solar 12th house Friday, while Venus follows Saturday; they continue to wow in a subtle, almost secretive way. The Moon amps up feelings over the weekend: You see your dreams could come true, but you may not be able to figure out how just yet. Internal images and instincts have credence, so make sure you check them out. Inspiration and its alter ego, duplicity, are both on the cards. The Sun shines light into any group gathering or association. Old wounds heal in subtle ways.
GEMINI
May 20-Jun 20
♥♥♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣♣♣
Mars does his own thing on Friday; Expect this warlord of ambition to be busy. Venus joins him on Saturday, and you can be happy in connubial bliss. Not married? Determined to be single? Use this unique combo to re-energize your personal interests. Ask a friend to join you—but don’t be surprised to find them more attractive than usual. Saturn makes all possible mates reflect a level of security, so ensure that this is what you want. Career efforts hold inspirational light and some dark shadows.
CANCER
Jun 21-Jul 21
♥♥♥ ¥¥¥ ♣♣♣
Ceres has moved past Pluto in your sector of relationships. While there’s still someone to stand by you, the impact of recent developments is lessening, partly because you’re adjusting to a new flow of information, but also because you can make your own timeline. If you’re sharing a queue for a legacy or inheritance, this week Mercury speaks to Vesta, helping you make a wise decision. The Sun shines heart and warmth into any educational or long-distance pursuits, so jump right in.
LEO
Jul 22-Aug 21
♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣
Juno and Jupiter are both retrograde in your sign; Saturn’s in your solar fifth house. Discipline and self-reliance are in. You’ll enjoy the time for a changing of the guard. The Sun’s entered your solar eighth house, connecting with Mars and the Moon on Friday, Venus on Saturday and Neptune on Thursday. You’re able to shine light on a recent development. Feelings motivate you Friday, there’s understanding and comfort on Saturday, but watch for possible duplicity as Thursday arrives.
VIRGO
Aug 22-Sep 21
♥♥♥ ¥¥¥¥ ♣♣♣♣
Water-logged—that’s the key feature of your week. It could be one full of emotions, too: If you’re in the midst of a romance, expect someone previously shy to just lay it on. The Sun has entered this sector, Mars and the Moon light up on Friday, Venus on Saturday and Neptune on Thursday. If you’re trying to avoid the time and energy of being in a relationship and just stay single, good luck. Swim, bathe in hot springs and take cold showers; watch movies in the dark to escape being on radar.
LIBRA
Sep 22-Oct 22
♥♥♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣♣
Relationship fireworks sizzle and surprise! Mars enters this part of your chart on Friday, with Venus, your ruler, joining in on Saturday. If you keep silent just to “get along,” you might block your throat chakra. Very important for singers! Sometimes it’s better to speak up. Standing up for your feelings is healthy, but can make you unpopular—you’ll be back on top soon, though. Single? Probably not for long. Saturday and Sunday are good days to meet someone, along with Monday morning.
SCORPIO
Oct 23-Nov 21
♥♥♥ ¥¥¥¥ ♣♣
Don’t blame yourself if finances seem slow to materialize. Saturn in this sector of your chart is putting you to the test. The overwhelming influence this week is your solar fifth house: The Sun has just entered this realm, connecting with Neptune, Chiron, the Moon and Venus—although she’s leaving on Saturday. Dealings with romance, children and your creative pursuits are high. Expect inspiration and slippery tactics to be involved. Protect yourself, and invite your favorite people there as backup.
SAGITTARIUS
Nov 22-Dec 20
♥♥♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣♣♣
Pallas Athene in Sagittarius is definitely kicking up a fuss, ready to go to war over something you care about deeply. This is a time of high creativity in your life, and your mind is full of new perspectives to consider. Ceres has moved past Pluto in your solar second house of income. The backup you’ve had is still there but its impact lessens with each day. If you really need to ask for help, it may be now or never, as time’s running out in the financial request department. There may be major issues about a home or home base. Expect duplicity and slippery tactics.
CAPRICORN
Dec 21-Jan 19
♥♥ ¥¥¥ ♣♣♣
Ceres has moved past Pluto in your sign. You may not be called upon so much to solve everyone’s problems. Great! Now you can focus on your own needs and desires! There’s still a lot to do; not everyone can absorb their latest shock. With Saturn in your solar 12th house, there may be something still at the back of your head—perhaps an unanswerable question, or an unfinalized offer; Saturn’s a slow mover. Treat yourself this week: Book an appointment to let yourself luxuriate at least once while you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop.
AQUARIUS
Jan 20-Feb 17
♥♥♥ ¥¥ ♣♣♣♣
Mercury’s in your sign and sailing right towards Vesta. Vesta keeps those hearth fires burning. Hearth fires are in short supply unless you live in a remote cabin, but the meaning remains the same. This vestal virgin traditionally held sacred wisdom for her community within the confines of the local temple. Mercury likes to send messages, though lately with edges frayed. As Mercury approaches Vesta, her influence may slow you down but holds you in the secure knowledge that you can share your news while keeping your motives high. You win!
PISCES
Feb 18-Mar 19
♥♥ ¥¥¥ ♣♣
Happy Birthday! Mars and Venus are still in tandem, though Mars enters your solar second house of income on Friday. He’s no longer soft and sweet with Venus, because there’s work to do. Things will move fast, so you’ll have to stay on top of sudden surges as they come in. Venus joins the lord of ambition and war on Saturday, so hang in there. It’s just one day of questions—a separation—and then they’re a team again. Venus will have to pull her hair back as your schedule is going into double-time for the next few weeks.
