Aries
Aries

 

Aries (March 20-April 19)
As the dust settles and you start to wake up and figure out where you are, you're likely to notice it's somewhere quite different than where you were one month ago. There is a good chance you're moving at an ever-increasing speed, and you may want to pause for a reality check. Your intuition has served you quite well up to this point, and despite a real measure of chaos you have made some decisions that are going to work out well in the long-run. But what you need now are tangible facts and a calm, rational assessment, even if you devote fifteen minutes to the project.

 

Taurus
Taurus

Taurus (April 19-May 20)
You have seen the dangers of exaggerating your fears, particularly where money is concerned. You seem to be flipping between best-case scenarios and worst-case ones, and the only problems with that are it's burning up your energy and doing a number on the one thing you need right now, which is some consistency. If you can keep your focus on one goal that's genuinely meaningful to you, you will start to make some real progress, and that will help feed your faith and confidence in yourself. You may feel like two conflicting sets of values are important to you, but I assure you, this is not the case. One set belongs to somebody else.

 

Gemini
Gemini

Gemini (May 20-June 21)
Mars is still firing its way through your sign, but now that your patron planet Mercury has resumed forward motion, you'll start to feel like you're going that way too. The past few months have given you a tour of your insecurities, which is a subject that most people would rather sweep under the rug. In any case, the time has come to go boldly where you have never gone before, and that is to see yourself as a fully acceptable member of society. In truth there is no such thing; it's an idea that exists strictly in the imagination of the person who succeeds. But that idea goes a long way in the world.

 

Cancer
Cancer

Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Now that you have finally blown through the glass ceiling that was holding you down, it's time to start climbing and get a view of what remains of the roof. The world inside an old system of belief, and outside it, are entirely unrelated, except that one seemed to follow the other in time. You can safely figure that all the old rules you believed in for so long, and all their limitations, are a done deal. Work with the idea that everything is negotiable, and then get yourself into the negotiation process. Just remember what you've learned many times: on some issues, there really is no compromising.

 

Leo
Leo

Leo (July 22-Aug. 23)
Matters involving partnership, commitments and shared finances have been slipping and sliding lately, but over the next couple of weeks I trust you'll see things stabilize. If you look, you'll start to notice everything you've learned in the process. It has become clear that communication really is everything, and at least you've had willing participants, even if they've seemed clueless at times. In the midst of the chaos, it's clear that you had several excellent ideas, and I suggest you give them light and water rather than keeping them in a little box in your mind.

 

Virgo
Virgo

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22)
Anyone who expresses ambition goes through the experience of taking something out on the world, or at least working something out on the world. We could ask what the world is for, if not for this. Gradually, anger gives way to a sense of clarity about one's goals, and past injuries start to be seen and felt in the context of the wisdom they offered you. For you, working and creating in the exterior world is vital to healing a division in your mind that results in an inner struggle that is, despite the challenges, best worked out in physical reality.

 

Libra
Libra

Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23)
You have managed to duck the big dramas, mainly due to successfully finding vents for your creative energy. True, your life has been like a sailboat ride through the rapids, but you've managed to stay upright and dry. There are rewards for mere survival, and you've done a lot better than that. A financial opportunity that is presenting itself also contains the silver lining of a more advanced creative opportunity than you've had in a while. You've been dreaming, this is true, but there is nothing like an actual physical opportunity to do something real. I don't suggest you let it pass you by, even if it's not perfect.

 

Scorpio
Scorpio

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22)
You seem to be living between two worlds, and struggling a bit to reconcile them. One is providing you a real measure of emotional satisfaction; the other, the intellectual involvement that you need and which is so often left out of descriptions of your sign. There is no discounting the influence of your relationships here; on one level, it is the people you know who are leaning to one side of this dichotomy or the other, and who require you to change modes like you're flipping a switch. Your charts say you may soon discover a 'third way' of being, which does not involve them; for now, it only involves you.

 

Sagittarius
Sagittarius

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22)
Partners or loved ones may seem to be unduly antagonistic these days, and it may not be much consolation that they decide to be sweet and friendly at the end of the discussion when you need them to be that way at the beginning. The issue is really one of honesty. I suggest you insist on this from the first words spoken, and take any hostility as a sign that there may be a deception lurking behind it. You don't need to make accusations, you merely need to be persistent and lead people down the straight road to what they really believe and feel.

 

Capricorn
Capricorn

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20)
Any feeling of being unsettled that you've experienced or are experiencing is a step on the way to really settling down -- at least within your own feelings. You've grown accustomed to making a lot of progress and usually that comes with a sense that you can't quite feel the same in your skin two days in a row. Recent events have served to open up a deeper level of inner experience that will help you pretty well feel like yourself wherever you are, and whatever may be going on. If you can stay in good form psychologically, you'll be able to keep a few steps ahead of the game of life -- very helpful at this particular stretch of history.

 

Aquarius
Aquarius

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
It's always amazing when something real happens, isn't it? We live in such a fantasy world, here in the West; images, illusions, magic powers, fantasies and dreams are often the stuff of what we call life. Then, a single event in the tangible world can awaken us to the sensuality and physical beauty of life. Let this be a reminder; let it be a beginning. It's not too good to be true; it is actually true.

 

Pisces
Pisces

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
I've seen few times in the past decade of tracking astrological history when the theme of personal recreation was more meaningful for Pisces; indeed; I cannot think of one. It's as though the large pieces are finally aligning with the small ones; the finer points of life with the greater ones; the decorating details with the architectural structure. From this point onward, take it slow and steady. You have been through enormous personal renovation work. You have reached places you did not know existed. Relax for a moment and take it all in.
