Monthly Horoscope: July 2009

Posted by ichatmedia on Jul-1-2009

Aries
Two Eclipses in July pack the month with action. Issues that have been neglected or put on the back burner, suddenly demand action. This month with the Lunar Eclipse on July 7 in steady and solid Capricorn it could be that many are diverted from their achievement oriented lives and tend to personal issues. Two weeks later just when the feeling is that all old business has been taken care of, the Solar Eclipse comes along in Cancer and we could find ourselves cutting loose from what is no longer useful in life. Meanwhile Mars and Venus merge in always-playful Gemini, lightening the effects of these two Eclipses. Jupiter and Neptune are still in the mix and are gently turning lives around with their positive vibrations.

Taurus
With the Lunar Eclipse on July 7 bringing action to your public image, you could be very much in the limelight. Is it something that you in your own unique way have stumbled upon that is of service to those who may be in positions of authority, especially in the career area of your life? The Sun is in a smooth-talking sign, and your speech is embellished with the persuasive salesman-like skills of this double-edged Gemini wit. The Solar Eclipse on July 21 brings more privacy to whatever endeavors you are involved in and it could be that on this night you take some time off to enjoy one-on-one time with a certain someone. That feeling is contagious leaving both you wanting more of the same.

Gemini
You are more adventurous this month with the Lunar Eclipse on July 7 in the house of personal freedom. It could be you are feeling wanderlust and promises that were previously made are difficult to fulfill. You, the ever-cautious Taurus, never have to worry about spilling too much information but the planets of love and money are in the talk-too-much sign of Gemini, and you could find yourself stumbling over your words. You do extricate yourself from a predicament of your own making whether it be a financial commitment or one of a more intimate nature. Be especially careful on July 28 when jealousy and ego may be on a collision course.

Cancer
On July 7 the Lunar Eclipse falls in the house of give and take in both relationships and financial affairs. Defining what’s mine and what’s yours in both personal and business, dealings are up for evaluation this month. It would appear that there are much needed new practices put in place at the time of the Solar Eclipse on July 21. A bright new beginning usually accompanies this lunation. When the Sun enters Leo on July 22 it could turn the spotlight on property matters. It could be that Gemini natives with romance on their minds could be deciding whether they want to share their biggest investment, their place of abode.

Leo
No matter what the big news regarding world, national, or personal business matters is, this month that news takes a backseat to your romantic life. This is a month that’s about you and your partner. The Lunar Eclipse of July 7 may bring a startling announcement from your significant other. There could be behind the scenes activity between the two of you or a secret hideaway you escape to on July 11. The Solar Eclipse of July 21 ignites that irresistible glow that intrigued your partner when first you met. At the end of the month Venus enters your own nurturing, nesting sign and you already feel the vibes of a relationship hiked up a notch on the commitment level.

Virgo
It’s so true that the bighearted jungle cat needs to be needed. With this month’s Lunar Eclipse on July 7 and in the area of the chart designated to service to others you may take on a big task when no one else steps up to the plate. Your pals know you all to well and recognize the honorable side of you Leo, and applaud your efforts and could even lend a hand. On July 21 with the Solar Eclipse in the modest sign of Cancer, you may try to elude the spotlight. When the Sun enters Leo on July 22 recognition could be on the way. You might want to sneak off with a special someone to elude attention at this time.

Libra
You may be feeling enough is enough this month Virgo. With the Solar Eclipse of July 7 in the area of the chart dedicated to fun and games, you may be starting on a new romantic pursuit. Mid-month you feel some recent restrictions loosening. On July 21 the Solar Eclipse (a new beginning) could see a previous relationship with a friend grow quickly into a love affair. Virgo it is true you are a rock when it comes to employment and service to others, but who can fight the rays of this lunation and the planet of love about to slip into a love-junkie sign?

Scorpio
The Lunar Eclipse of July 7 may see a juggling act begin between your career and your home life. While it’s true that romance is of utmost importance to you, you Libra are a political animal and realize that your career gives you the finances and the emotional freedom to fall in and out of love whenever the mood strikes you. On July 15 you may have to make a choice between putting in extra time to solidify an opportunity that is coming your way on the job, or spend time with your sweetie. On July 21 you do the right thing and shore up your security and it could be you receive that well-deserved praise for your talent in the workplace.

Sagittarius
The two Eclipses fall across the communication and travel axis, and far or near if there is someone who sets your heart beating faster, you Scorpio will pursue this object of desire. The planets of love and money are visiting the house of legal matters whether they are concerning intimate love or business contracts. If you are already in a relationship (be it romantic or business) there is a solidification of the trust level between the two of you. One or both of you will feel like addressing an issue that you have long avoided. On July 21 when the Solar Eclipse in one of the most financially savvy signs beams its rays on Scorpio, there is talk of signing a legal document.

Capricorn
While Sagittarius is one of the less clingy signs of the Zodiac, the Lunar Eclipse of July 7 calls attention to the things you own, whether it’s a material item or the love and esteem of a trusted partner. One of the planets of aggression enters the sector of the chart delegated to partners and/or enemies and it could be you pick up speed in resolving a long over due issue that must be addressed. On July 21 the Solar Eclipse takes place in the house of combined investments (and also sexy love) and new rules are put in place. With the Sun entering Leo on July 22, there is talk of making a partnership a legal and binding agreement. .

Aquarius
Your partner knows what great stability and deep feelings you bring to a relationship and this month is about the two of you. Beginning on July 7 with the Lunar Eclipse beaming its rays on you and your personality, it could be you are more irresistible that you have been in some time. On July 21 with the Solar Eclipse in the house of the partner you may be pursued with more enthusiasm than usual. When the Sun enters Leo on July 22 during a very sexy and private encounter it could be that you decide to combine your investments. The momentum of a partnership speeds up this summer, faster than Capricorn generally likes to move.

Pisces
On July 1 the ruler of your chart literally stands still and so could you Aquarius. A little voice is whispering in your ear that you get off the wild ride and take a breather. The Lunar Eclipse on July 7 may send you scurrying from the shelter of your heretofore-hectic life. When Mars the planet of both money and love moves into the house of gambling, you could be taking some risky chances in love and finance. The Solar Eclipse of July 21 just naturally brings you around to changing your daily routine for the next several months. With this break in routine on July 22 there may be renewed interest in a partner you may have been unknowingly neglecting.

Aries
Aries, whenever a friend or relative is in need, you help out, and you rarely ask for anything in return. Monday you’ll embark on a more equable system of sharing favors with a family member who takes without giving back to you. It’s time to assess your relationship with this person. You spruce up your residence by redecorating a room in your house or condominium on Friday, as busy Mercury enters Cancer and your home sector. You might move soon.

Taurus
Make sure you keep a clear head when you interact with a former associate on Wednesday, Taurus, as erratic Uranus turns retrograde in your sector of friendship. Your past companion wants to be back in your life, so think carefully before agreeing. Sunday lovely Venus, your ruling planet, enters quicksilver and versatile Gemini, and you will undergo a major shakeup in your approach to life. You’ll find you are now open to exploring new ideas, new trends and new activities.

Gemini
You delight in giving your brain cells a good workout, Gemini, and you love to play games of all kinds, including board games, puzzles and jigsaws. Friday Mercury, your ruler, enters sensitive Cancer, and your slant on life takes an emotional turn. Follow your sixth sense in the weeks ahead, and pay special attention to your nighttime dreams, which will be prophetic. Venus enters Gemini and your sector of self on Sunday, and you’ll alter your appearance in some way.

Cancer
Cancer, this week your heart leads you down one road, but your practicality brings you down another path. Monday the Moon in Libra in your sector of home and family squares the Sun in Cancer, and you’ll find yourself caught in an emotional bind. You are a sensitive Water Sign, and often entangled in your own emotions. Friday Mercury enters Cancer and your sector of self, and you’ll be able to make clear choices in many areas of your life.

Leo
You usually are at ease in most social situations, Leo, but this week you’ll find yourself scrambling when confronted with an awkward encounter. Tuesday you’ll run into someone you usually avoid at all costs in a social setting. Simply smile at this individual, walk away from him or her, and let it go at that. Mercury opposes Pluto in your sector of health on Saturday, and you’ll have to deal with a physical ailment that flares up after lying dormant.

Virgo
You will tap into your desire to express your emotions and thoughts through the arts by singing, painting, and dancing this week. In fact, you are going to learn to sing your own song in short order. Friday Mercury, your ruler, enters intuitive and insightful Cancer, and your inner muse is going to speak to you loudly and clearly. The emotional Moon in your sector of home and family squares erratic Uranus on Sunday, and family issues will flare up!

Libra
You don’t often have enough time to pursue the metaphysical interests you have come to enjoy, Libra. Monday you’ll cultivate your spiritual side by getting up earlier than usual in order to embrace your spiritual practices. Sunday Venus, your ruling planet, enters quicksilver Gemini, and your tempo will speed up considerably. Your ability to debate issues with others will increase substantially, and you’ll surprise yourself and your friends and family by becoming a whirlwind of energy. Who says you’re lazy?

Scorpio
Scorpio, you’ll be confronted with someone who is not on your side this week. This person delights in trying to push your hot buttons, and you might feel that you need to retaliate in kind on Thursday, as the Moon in intense Scorpio opposes Mars in your sector of rivals. Devote your energy toward making yourself happy and forget all else. Friday wise Mercury enters insightful Cancer and your zone of philosophical thought, and you’ll explore religious and spiritual practices.

Sagittarius
It’s important that you say what you mean in no uncertain terms in a particularly tricky circumstance in your life this week, Sagittarius. Unless you are crystal clear about your intentions when you talk with a close associate, you will be completely misunderstood on Wednesday, as Venus squares hazy Neptune in Aquarius in your sector of communication. Saturday Mercury is opposite powerful Pluto in your sector of what you value, and you’ll have to deal with a matter of principle.

Capricorn
Capricorn, you’ll deal with an associate who is firmly opposed to a plan you have for yourself on Monday. Clever Mercury in Gemini squares explosive Uranus in your communication sector on Wednesday, and you’ll tell your associate how you really feel about his or her interference in your life. You have evolved into a new person and your needs have changed. Friday the Moon in your sector of hopes opposes Venus, and you’ll compose a new wish list for yourself.

Aquarius
Aquarius, you made a mistake recently, since you are only human! Your embarrassment will evaporate on Wednesday, and you’ll realize that your error is not as bad as you think it is. You’ll have the ability to think clearly about your situation once that happens. Friday Mercury, the planet of the mind, enters Cancer and your sector of health. You often neglect your physical and dental needs, but now you’ll make your health, fitness and general well-being your first priority.

Pisces
Wednesday your life will start to slow down, as Uranus in Pisces in your sector of self turns retrograde for the next several months. You can certainly use the rest and relaxation that is coming your way, and the opportunity to meditate on your life journey will help you create better plans for yourself. Venus enters Gemini and your sector of home and family on Sunday, and your domestic side will kick in. You’ll discover there’s no place like home!

Aries
Monday begins with a New Moon in Cancer, occurring in your home zone. This time you may want to make changes to your home, or perhaps to your current family situation. For instance if you have been thinking of getting a new pet, this is the ideal time to introduce them, as they should fit in fairly easily. New Moons indicate a time of fresh beginnings, when you can make a clean sweep and start all over again.

Taurus
Mars trines Saturn on Monday which helps give you a leading start if you want to get down to some hard work. This is especially useful if you run your own business and need to get deadlines completed. Otherwise it also indicates that a love affair may take a more serious direction. If you ever thought of writing a book, teaching a course or class, or starting a study program, this is a good time to begin. Reunions work well too!

Gemini
Your love life is great – but perhaps not your main focus right now. You are more keen than ever for you and your partner to take your relationship to new levels of love and conscious awareness. Both Mars and Venus are in your twelfth house, which suggests that you can do a lot of inner work at this time. This is a good time to think about where you are going, and whether you are happy with what you have already manifested.

Cancer
This New Moon can be used to bring change to any area of your life you choose. You need to be willing to claim your power, in order to make those changes you so desire. If your partner or other people in your life seem to have power over you, it is time to take it back. Be bold and step out on faith. Proving that you have what it takes to be captain of your destiny is very important to you.

Leo
You are being encouraged to focus on your goals, and take the kind of action that can help you manifest them. If you are attending job interviews, you will have a lot of interaction with key people and will need to impress. You will not be as outgoing as usual over the coming days, so you may need to allow your CV to speak for itself. However if you really are brilliant at your job, you will probably get hired anyway.

Virgo
Love affairs, online businesses, travel, study and much more are on the cards for you. You are keen to explore beliefs and philosophies that can help you to lead a happier and more peaceful life. With both Mars and Venus in your ninth house you are heading for something bigger and more exciting that anything you have done for some time. You are already getting positive feedback for projects you have set in motion, and this is spurring you onto greater things.

Libra
Both Mars and Venus continue to be in Taurus and your eighth house. You may be busy sorting out contractual issues in which business resources have been merged. Marriage and divorce are other areas which may come in for some discussion. Finding a solution that works for everyone is the way to go. There is a New Moon in your career zone on Monday, which gives you the opportunity of a fresh start and a chance of a promotion.

Scorpio
A New Moon ushers in a time of fresh beginnings, when you can move ahead with plans and projects. If you are about to travel you should have a great journey. Anything begun at the time of the New Moon has a better chance of succeeding. As this New Moon opposes Pluto, you may have to make a decision first of all. Something may have to change before you can go ahead. But by doing so you will make swifter progress.

Sagittarius
Both Jupiter and Neptune in your communication zone, are encouraging you to think positive and stay focused, as this will bring happy events into your life. On Monday Mars also makes a trine to Saturn, suggesting that you may be offered a job with some mileage. The focus on your work and health zone brings you an opportunity to commit to getting fit, and also to get ahead at work, and fight off any competition. It’s all looking good!

Capricorn
Pluto retrograde suggests that you need to release a few preconceived notions about the most important relationships in your life – whether romantic or business. These inbuilt thought patterns may be holding you back from a more satisfying interaction. A New Moon ushers in a two week window of opportunity. You have the option of recommitting to an existing relationship. But as Pluto opposes the New Moon, you may have to make a choice that will change things quite dramatically.

Aquarius
Your love life is not a major focus, but Mercury in Gemini suggests that good conversation is the way to your heart. You are in a very flirtatious mood. Overall, this is a good time to continue with any DIY and to decorate, clear out clutter, and entertain. You may enjoy gardening too, especially as a way to ground your energy. The more you spend time digging in the earth, planting and growing things, the better you will feel.

Pisces
Think about the goals that you want to achieve and your plans for the future. It is time to write them down if you haven’t already, and to read them through every day, in order to help you manifest them. The presence of both Mars and Venus in Taurus is excellent for devising that marketing or advertising campaign and for getting in touch with key people. If you plant the right seeds in the right place they will begin to bear fruit.

Daily Horoscope: June 22, 2009

Posted by ichatmedia on Jun-22-2009

Aries
You have energy to burn today and should get in some light exercise. You are likely to enjoy some biking, walking or even some light hiking. A regular routine of getting out of the house to work out will help to lift your spirits and ward off the blues.

Taurus
You care too much about things that don’t matter. Today is a good time for reflection. Family and friends are important now and taking care of your own concerns is where your time and efforts should be directed. But if your concerns are the petty demands of what other people expect of you, this will eventually cause you distress. Set your own priorities devoid of other people’s influence and you will be more satisfied with how your life is going.

Gemini
Today you will try to compliment someone but they will take your praise in the form of manipulation. The problem here is that you were using flattery in an attempt to get them to like you. Even though the kind words were justified, the motivation behind the flattery was self-seeking. Praise should not have hidden intentions; otherwise, the individual that it is directed towards will perceive insincerity.

Cancer
This is a very critical period which will help to strengthen your personality. The last time something like this occurred in your life, you found great strength by overcoming a hurdle placed in front of you by your supervisor. Know that you will get through this with flying colors.

Leo
You are uninterested in taking part today. Be careful that you haven’t bought into the illusion of what others feel is important. You don’t feel like participating because you do not agree with what is required of you. You are correct in your analysis of the situation. State your opinion to someone who you respect. They should be able to help you assess things properly without giving up your self-respect and integrity. This will help you to stay motivated and continue to enjoy what you do without losing interest.

Virgo
Today you will want to think about where you are in your life. Spend time alone today to listen to where your thoughts take you. This is a good time to take note of inner goals and aspirations. With the quick pace of life, we don’t spend enough time alone to find out if we are on the right path according to our inner voice.

Libra
You are feeling restricted by your situation. This is a good time to look at the world around you and observe those that have greater restrictions placed upon themselves than you do. Once you research the subject, you will come to the conclusion that you really have more freedom than you had previously thought.

Scorpio
This is a day which will be filled with fun and frolic. This is a happier time for you and your loved ones. You wish that your life was filled with more of these joyful days. The latest studies point to laughter as something that helps us to stay young and healthy. Lose the serious side for a day and you will enjoy it to its fullest.

Sagittarius
This is a time to set your priorities as you will tend to take on more than you can honestly handle. You are spreading yourself thin and despite the need to meet deadlines, you will be better off if you discuss your priorities with those that matter. They will appreciate your honesty.

Capricorn
You seem to be getting caught up in the illusion of what will be a good idea. To get a realistic take on things today, be weary of something that gets your imagination going. This is a day where you will not want to make a final decision on something because you as well as others are coming up with benefits and payoffs that have not yet come to pass. If you must make a decision, decide only on what you know is true, not what may or may not happen.

Aquarius
The dreams that you put in place a while back show signs of fruition today. You hear some good news which will move you forward in your plans. The news you receive will make petty problems seem insignificant. This is your day to enjoy as you can finally see the dream becoming reality.

Pisces
This is a time where you are “under the microscope” at work from your supervisors. Complete any unfinished projects as the longer you wait, the more that can be scrutinized.

Aries
Jupiter turns retrograde this week in your social zone, which doesn’t mean that your social life is going to come to an end. Instead you will be questioning the basis of some of your friendships, especially the more whacky ones. Meetings online will be fascinating, but don’t get caught out. On Saturday the Sun moves into your home zone, encouraging you to see your home and family life in perspective. Over the weekend shopping is going to be a lot of fun!

Taurus
Your career seems to be moving through an interesting phase. You may be uncertain quite where things are going – but at the same time it is important that you know where you want to go. Don’t lose track of your focus – it will help you more than you realize in the week and months ahead. The Sun moves into your communication zone, so think about getting in touch with friends and family you have not seen or heard from in some time.

Gemini
Jupiter turns retrograde in your exploration zone, you may find yourself embracing philosophies that you thought you had left behind long ago. Rereading the kind of books you used to enjoy may encourage you to reapply this knowledge to your current situation with astonishing results. You may also find that a visit to a place you once knew well yields a fascinating surprise – and benefits you greatly. Mercury in your sign means you are back on form and ready for anything.

Cancer
Jupiter is in your joint financial zone and when it turns retrograde on Monday, it ushers in a period in which you need to trust your intuition and act on your inner guidance, especially where your current financial situation is concerned. The Sun moves into your sign on Saturday, bringing a boost of energy your way and helping you to see your life in perspective. It is time to bring some of your treasured ideals and goals into manifestation.

Leo
Your social life is busy, bringing even more people into your life. You are very much the party animal these days, as it seems that people can’t get enough of you. You love to see others cut loose and enjoy themselves and you also enjoy providing the means for them to do so. Jupiter turns retrograde in your relationship zone, which suggests that you may meet up with old flames, who may turn out to be lucky for you.

Virgo
You may find that you are drawn to a job you used to do or a lifestyle that you were once very much involved in. When Jupiter turns retrograde early this week the past may have an attraction. Dabbling in areas of former interest may bring many benefits your way. Your love life is more settled, with new love affairs involving those engaged in your current passion. You choose your associates carefully even at times like these. Socially you are in demand.

Libra
Joint financial issues are important. If you have money to spare, this is a good time to think about investing and getting your money to work harder for you. When the Sun moves into your career zone on Saturday, you may be thrust into the limelight. You may also gain yourself a reputation whether you deserve it or not. An old flame may come back into your life – and bring good news. Think about updating your skill set too!

Scorpio
You may find yourself longing for the ideal home. A place where you can get away from it all and be completely yourself. To this end you may be searching through lists of properties and seeking something that appears idyllic. You may also find yourself taking a trip down memory lane and discovering that the place where you grew up as a child still holds plenty of memories – some of which continue to haunt you. Think about what home means to you

Sagittarius
This may be a good time to think about writing a book or teaching a course or class in order to share your spiritual knowledge. You have been doing a lot of thinking and reflecting as well as a lot of reading and research on such issues. You are a born seeker always looking over the horizon to the next adventure. As Jupiter turns retrograde, it is time to begin a fresh adventure in consciousness and communicate it to others.

Capricorn
You enjoy anything that has class, style and quality. You may even go so far as to learn how to make your own works of art, whether these are paintings, sculptures or whatever. Ideas may come that encourage you to take your skill one step further by making a business out of it and creating a new stream of income at the same time. Your ability to bring joy to others through your own talents will stand you in good stead.

Aquarius
Jupiter turns retrograde in your sign, which doesn’t mean that Lady Luck has deserted you. It does suggest that you need to learn the laws of attracting good luck your way. A bold idea on Wednesday may inspire a new initiative. But do make sure you have your feet on the ground. The Sun’s movement into Cancer and your health zone on Saturday helps you to see this area in perspective, and to take action to improve your overall wellbeing.

Pisces
An interesting week in which a cross-fertilization of ideas will revolutionize an area of your life. Amazing insights seem to be the order of the day. Make sure that you record these as they have value and may give you much food for thought. Use them to come up with ideas for new streams of income and for resolving any issues with which you have a problem. Your love zone is highlighted from Saturday – so time for a little romance.

Aries
It’s kind of a prickly week. Lunar influences will be emotionally intense from the 1st to the 5th, and for the 6th and 7th, there’ll be much to think about on the career front. If you’re not making the most of your skills/talents, then this may be the week where inner or unexpressed dissatisfaction begins to emerge quite forcefully. Don’t let it swamp you: start thinking about making the necessary changes! Overdue deadlines may well catch up with you on the 7th!

Taurus
Your planet Venus will see all kinds of hectic activity, this week and may well be the root cause of a complicated or tricky issue. You won’t want to act hastily; nor will you want to let it drag out, which makes the matter that little bit more problematic, especially given that your confidence levels are likely to dip and rise by the day. Looking ahead, the best day to make any crucial decision will be the 8th! Avoid spending on the 7th!

Gemini
A sun/Saturn combination may well have quite an impact on the week. If you hear your inner voice urging caution or even downplaying any achievements, blame the Saturn aspect. If you find that you’re suddenly dithering and holding back; blame the aspect. By the same token, if you start to harbor minor suspicions regarding a specific individual, blame the aspect, not the person! Romance isn’t brilliantly aspected on the 7th!

Cancer
Lunar influences will be very intense from the start to the finish. Relationships and romance are highlighted, with shifts and changes occurring almost by the day. There’s a distinct clash of old and new, for exes are likely to make a reappearance and new love interests are likely to emerge. However, all that said, it’s also a week where a specific situation is not as it seems! There are several illuminating influences on the 7th!

Leo
Prickly influences may well be a little misguiding, this week. Solutions to temporary or minor problems should be considered very carefully if cash is involved. Don’t throw good money after bad. Be wary of loans and credit offers. Similarly, don’t offer to bail others out of a financial hole unless you’re a hundred- and-ten-percent certain that you’re not going to lose a single cent! Rein in an extravagant streak on the 7th!

Virgo
It’s a week where you’ll need to strike when the signs look good and hold back when the signs aren’t so hot. Unfortunately, those signs are likely to be a little obscured by incoming news and advice from close quarters, making it less easy to recognize which opportunities to grasp and which to ignore. You’ll perhaps get the best indications on the 2nd; that said, though, keep a close eye on your finances! There may be a choice to make on the 7th!

Libra
Until your planet Venus switches signs at the end of this week, it will be too easy to get caught up with romantic matters. What starts off on a simple note may become a little tricky. Avoid getting involved in any heavy emotional discussions. Think before making any claims or promises, especially on the 3rd, and be aware that a careless slip made early in the week will rear up again at the end! Curb slightly selfish impulses on the 7th!

Scorpio
Pluto will be at the nub of some fairly dramatic shifts, this week. The way you regard something or someone connected to romance is likely to undergo a significant change, and what is likely to cause this change is new or fresh incoming information that alters your perspective. It might even be one of those weeks where you’ll realize and admit that maybe you were wrong! You need to be careful with money on the 7th!

Sagittarius
You can get away with a certain amount this week, but only for so long, because once you lose the supportive vibes of Venus on the 5th, you’ll find that you can’t get away with a charming smile or a flattering comment any more. From then on, you’ll need to keep up with the rest. Don’t try to push your luck with colleagues, friends, and family over the weekend, either! You need to be careful with others’ feelings on the 7th!

Capricorn
Minor obstacles on the work/school front are likely to have an irritating habit of cropping up again and again, this week. You may think you have dealt with a specific matter, but secondary developments or complications may well mean that you have to go back to the drawing board at least once. Perhaps what will help is having a very decisive approach at the start, although that may not be as easy as it sounds! A great idea may need a rethink on the 7th!

Aquarius
You’ll be very tuned to the moon’s influence this week, which impacts on decisions, ideas, and personal improvement and expansion. However, the planets suggest that there will be a need for clarity and balance in any plans that you begin to make. Practical and financial considerations may well have to be factored in, especially around the 7th, when there may be a slight reality check! Listen to others may be saying on the 7th!

Pisces
Pesky lunar influences are likely to disrupt the communication lines this week, which may well impact on romance and emotional matters. There may be a tendency to make life more complicated than it really is, or maybe crossed wires will stir up old concerns. Keeping your cool will be essential; resist making mountains out of molehills and do be prepared to reconsider a suggestion/idea! Be open-minded on the 7th!

Aries
There’s a definite up-down pattern to the next seven days, which is likely to impact on work/school matters and on your daily routine. It is more than possible that plans made on the 25th will pan out by the 30th, but not before a few hitches and setbacks along the way. The trick is to keep going, but to adjust calmly to those little hitches as and when they crop up! Saturday’s influences may bring good news!

Taurus
There may well be a tendency to make minor problems slightly worse this week, thanks to intermittently blundering influences. You may well have the best of intentions, but good deeds and well meaning endeavors are likely to go awry. Miscommunication will certainly be one factor, and assuming that everything is ticking along nicely when actually it’s not, is another! Saturday’s influences put the ball back in your court!

Gemini
Fickle influences are likely to zone right in on your emotions, this week. There’ll be days where you might think that you’re being fairly consistent, but others may well perceive your responses as quite unpredictable and out of the blue. Then there’ll be days where the opposite is true and you’ll have to rev some people up or perhaps even take their advice with a pinch of salt! There’s much to be said, on Saturday!

Cancer
While overall it’s likely to be a good week, you could find that your emotions will tend to dictate the pace. If you’re feeling great you’ll feel as though you can tackle anything, but on those less than great days you might feel inclined to give in a little too easily. This may well hit a peak on the 26th and 27th, when the moon lingers in your sign and tampers around with your confidence levels! Romance sizzles on Saturday!

Leo
There are perhaps quite a few improvements to make life that little bit easier this week, but it may be hard work, since you’ll have to deal with a couple of unhelpful types initially. However, that said; there are a few insights to guide you into making the right decisions. General relationships and finances are the two key areas which will benefit from seeing the wider picture! Saturday’s influences are very settling!

Virgo
Scattered influences are likely to lull you into a kind of laid- back mood, almost from the start of the week. Deadlines and schedules are usually your strength, but dwindling efficiency levels suggest that by the 30th, you’ll be perhaps struggling to catch up with the backlog of duties/chores. However, if you can somehow find a way to keep on top, you should be able to really let your hair down at the weekend! Anything is possible on Saturday!

Libra
Communications are likely to be quite intense, but useful this week, although to begin with, you might not quite figure out what exactly has managed to get under your skin. The planets suggest that there may be a temporary confidence issue affecting your day-to-day routine and related decisions. Perhaps the root cause of this is an offhand comment made right at the start! Give someone a chance on Saturday!

Scorpio
Prickly influences this week are likely to impact very positively on work/practical matters, but less so when it comes to emotional issues. Perhaps it is a question of knowing when to relax and switch off. Accept any offers of help on the work front to relieve the pressure and free up some time. If you do this, then you can make the most of what should be a glorious weekend! There’s plenty of room for romance on Saturday!

Sagittarius
How your week pans out depends heavily on your daily routine. If you have to rely on others, then your patience levels are likely to plummet, although you’ll probably achieve what you set out to do. If you’re in a position to work alone, then you’ll feel much happier, but you’re a lot less likely to hit your targets. Striking the right balance, unfortunately, will be harder than it sounds! Be proactive on Saturday!

Capricorn
Romance is likely to get quite intense this week, with more than its fair share of hot and cold moments. There’s a little tension and a little excitement too. Attached Goats might need to avoid slipping into little powers struggles, while singles might need to shake off a rather aloof mood at the beginning. After the 26th, though, you should find that the mood heats up nicely whether single or attached! Trips are fabulously aspected on Saturday!

Aquarius
There’s no single theme dominating this week, for every day brings a slightly different emphasis. It could even be that the days alternate between work/school matters and romance. Just as one area settles down, the other bubbles up. You’ll certainly be kept on your toes, but as Sunday approaches, you could find that not only are you back on top, but there’s a nice surprise too! Be careful what you say on Saturday!

Pisces
It’s possibly one of those weeks where you’ll need to do the opposite of what you’re inclined to do. Those days when you want to take it easy will be the days where extra effort is required and vice-versa. This is applicable to both work/school issues and romance. Don’t assume that one easy day means you have it all sorted; wait until the weekend before you breathe a sigh of relief! Hold back a little on Saturday!

Aries
There’s a much lighter, airier, quicker kind of feel to the week than recently, thanks to welcome planetary transits. New ideas, new thoughts and new plans should have quite a rejuvenating effect overall and positive lunar vibes will add a little extra pizzazz to romance, while emotional matters should start to settle, although cash related issues still require a cautious approach! Your best days this week are the 19th and 22nd!

Taurus
A Mars/Jupiter combination moving in later in the week is excellent news, so if the start of the week seems a little plodding or uninspiring, just look to the 22nd, when there should be a significant or uplifting turning-point in at least one key area of your life. Career matters should certainly benefit and there may even be some good news on the cash front to celebrate at the weekend! Your best days this week are the 23rd and 24th!

Gemini
This week it is all change. Luck is in the air, thanks to infinitely more cooperative influences. However, one enduring aspect that may slow you down will need to be kept firmly in check, if you’re to make the most of what the week has to offer, which is a possible suggestion or proposal to consider, and progress or positive developments in romance! Your best days this week are the 19th and 23rd!

Cancer
Planetary changes are very likely to spur you into making quite a few changes to your routine and perhaps even to your relationships this week. The key word to sum up your approach is overhaul. Those areas that don’t quite come up to scratch should be tackled first. Don’t try to do everything all at once and do recognize just how much you achieve by the end of the week! Your best days this week are the 18th and 23rd!

Leo
A pesky sun/Pluto combination appearing midweek may be a little unsettling, in that it’s likely to eclipse or obscure your numerous achievements, and at the same time over-emphasize or exaggerate any little errors or blips. You might even finish the week presuming that you’ve got nowhere. Look to a good friend for a heart-warming, confidence boosting pep-talk! Your best days this week are the 19th and 20th!

Virgo
Career matters are likely to be very subtly nudged further forward this week. There may not be any spectacular or obvious changes to indicate this, but there should be a shift in perspective, perhaps triggered by incoming news. Do pay attention to the signs and signals, which will be cropping up throughout the next seven days and be alert to the subtle changes on the 22nd! Your best days this week are the 18th and 22nd!

Libra
There’s a breath of fresh air in this week’s influences, which point the way forwards rather than back. Old problems can be settled. Old issues can be resolved and old feelings can be sorted out once and for all. There’s a sense of closure with regards to one particular matter, but there’s a new phase or fresh start too, and the glorious Mars/Jupiter aspect links this new phase to romance! Your best days this week are the 18th and 21st!

Scorpio
There’s a very solid, stable feel to this week’s influences, but that’s not to say it will be heavy going or overly serious. It’s quite the reverse, in fact, since airier aspects will lift the mood considerably. Support is there for the asking and friendships are superbly aspected. The only potential glitch to watch out for is one related to romance. However, this should only be a temporary blip! Your best days this week are the 20th and 21st!

Sagittarius
The start of the week may feel hard-going and demanding, but the end of the week should bring a noticeable turnaround in the general mood. Communications should sharpen up nicely from the midweek point, which will benefit both work and personal relationships. You’ll be more in control and when it comes to promoting your ideas, you’ll be ahead of the game! Your best days this week are the 18th and 22nd!

Capricorn
There’s a kind of a chain-reaction in this week’s planets. Saturn will continue to beam some excellent vibes your way, especially after the 21st, when it will be much easier to work out what it is you want. A helpful change in your day-to-day routine may well point the way to further improvements. Be proactive at work and be creative in the home to get the most of the planetary goodness! Your best days this week are the 19th and 23rd!

Aquarius
You too may feel that there’s change in the air, although those changes are likely to relate to your immediate environment, since the planets are zoning in on domestic matters. It’s a good week to have family get-togethers, but it’s also an excellent week to tend to any outstanding practical matters within the home too. A lighter, airier environment in all senses is just what you need! Your best days this week are the 20th and 23rd!

Pisces
After an iffy and slow start, you should find that cash matters start to look up, thanks to a fabulous Jupiter/Mars combination. There’s not only a smattering of good luck, but a welcome energy boost too. Use this boost wisely and constructively in order to see further improvements towards the end of the week. Someone who matters will be certainly be impressed! Your best days this week are the 23rd and 24th!

Aries
From this week to the end of the month there are likely to be a few money hassles cropping up and causing low-level stress. If your car or washer requires repairs or if bills come with hidden costs, then blame Mercury. Put money aside for those rainy days. Alternatively, streamline your current budget so that you can stash some away each week, and don’t worry; it will pass! The 17th highlights a fresh way forward!

Taurus
It’s a week where you may well encounter the unexpected; it’s a week where you should exercise a little caution and at the same time, remain upbeat too, because from the very start, a string of minor influences may well resurrect an old matter or issue. Regard this as a very positive welcome second chance to either put the record straight or give yourself a reputation boost! The 17th brings balance!

Gemini
There’s a slightly sour aftertaste to the next seven days. The emphasis is on people and platonic relationships, but unreliable or selfish types will feature quite strongly, almost from the start. If you have been letting some individuals get away with a little too much, then this is the week where your patience will finally dwindle. Perhaps this is no bad thing in the long term, but do keep your cool! The 17th clears up a muddle or confusion!

Leo
This week sees a sharp U-turn in general attitudes and approaches. If there is a planetary motto, it’s this: what goes up must come down. If harmony is lacking, then use the week to restore some balance to the main key areas of your life. Tone down overly ambitious plans and schemes, but by the same token, those areas that are stale or a little jaded should be stoked up a little! The 17th highlights cash matters!

Virgo
Your daily routine may well be unsettled or disrupted this week, but while the influences shaping this development are mainly pesky, very minor ones, there’s a strong sense of progress and improvements following on from this. It’s a week where troubling news is likely to facilitate a change for the better, or where one step back actually enables two steps forward again! The 17th enables romance!

Libra
For the majority of the week it may feel like you’re swimming against the current when it comes to self-development or progress, but just as you up the stakes, you’re likely to find that the pesky obstacles in your way disappear quite suddenly. The 17th in particular may well be an eye-opener of a day. Perhaps this is the day when you’ll experience a rather surprising revelation! The 17th clarifies inner feelings/thoughts!

Scorpio
This is a good week to work on, consolidate and strengthen your relations. This isn’t just about romance, although romance is certainly a prominent part of it; it’s about work-related relationships and friendships too. If there is someone you haven’t seen or spoken to for some time, then get in touch. Don’t wait for others to initiate contact: it’ll mean more if the gesture comes from you! The 17th brings warm feelings to the fore!

Sagittarius
Your ruling planet, Jupiter, is all over the place, this week, and it is very likely to disrupt communications on several fronts. The general rule to apply over the next seven days is this: whenever you believe you’ve got something sorted, done and dusted, you probably haven’t. This applies to romantic matters and to work/school issues equally. Think before you speak and then think again! The 17th highlights a work-related matter!

Capricorn
It’s quite a momentous week this week. Your planet Saturn sheds a lot of the heavy, negative vibes, so don’t be surprised if your future starts to look a little rosier, or if there’s some excellent/uplifting news from afar. While nothing earth- shattering may happen, it’s a great time to contemplate career matters too, especially if you feel that you’re in a rut! The 17th heralds a new beginning!

Aquarius
Despite the rather heavy-influences around, you’re likely to have quite a light-hearted week. This is possibly down to the level of support and help you’ll be able to generate, if and when needed. Don’t be tempted to draw on this generous energy too many times, though: regard it as a reserve to be tapped into when absolutely necessary. Don’t forget to extend a helping hand, either! The 17th zooms in on relationships!

Pisces
There is not just one motto for you this week, there are two. The first is: ‘no pain; no gain;’ and the second is: ‘if it’s worth doing; it’s worth doing well.’ Combine these to get a sense of what the next seven days are likely to involve: effort, exertion, attention to detail, and ultimately, if you follow the planetary advise, a nice outcome, which could be cash related, but it could be someone’s genuine gratitude or appreciation! The 17th highlights romance!
