WEEKLY HOROSCOPE

(21 March - 19 April)

Will you be in the mood to chill out by yourself and do something self-indulgent this week? Or perhaps you’ll feel a bit more sociable and want to catch up with family or friends. You might get a taste of just about everything in the week ahead, Aries, because the tone of this week will keep changing. But whatever you do, it should be breezy, light, and fun. Try to avoid being overly analytical, even in situations where you feel you need to be more serious. Things will have a tendency to work out well, and over-stressing over complications will only sour your mood and make things more complicated. The more laid-back you feel when you approach certain issues, the smoother it will go.

(20 April - 20 May)

This is a great week to work on improving your “game,” Taurus - whatever your game happens to be. There is a great focus on career and personal goals, and whatever is driving you now stands a good chance of coming to the forefront of your life. This may manifest as an opportunity popping up unexpectedly, such as a chance to fulfill a goal and to become much better at something you already do well. This is also a good time for healing old emotional wounds. For example, if you internalized an experience where someone disappointed you, and it caused you to feel bad about it, there is a chance now to see things with a different perspective and to better understand the big picture, making it easier to overcome this.

(21 May - 20 June)

You can expect to meet at least one very good connection this week that will be very helpful in some capacity that is important to your career or to your creative life. You may encounter someone who you find incredibly easy to talk to and relateable, and you may even have a common background. This could be described as a kindred spirit kind of connection, and it may be one that will carry throughout your life, Gemini. If you wind up working on a big and complicated project this week, as you certainly might, try to focus on the whole rather than on the tiniest of details. It may be tempting to focus closely, but pulling back and looking at all of it rather than those small elements will give you a greater sense of it. You may discover that someone who recently did something that felt like a betrayal really did have the very best of intentions.

(21 June - 22 July)

“Star light, star bright, the first star that I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight.” You may know that rhyme from childhood, Moonchild, and it is a good one to whisper to yourself and to the night sky on the first day of this week. If you do, you will create a tone for the week that would jive perfectly, for there is something magical about it. By expressing your belief that good things are possible, you will open a gate to a higher level of mind power, and you will tap into the positive energies that are flowing through your life right now. Despite your own upbeat mood this week, you may encounter and have to deal with people who are a bit grumpy. That’s okay - you can shake them out of it with your positivity and your encouraging words. You should get a great deal of satisfaction out of this too.

(23 July - 22 August)

You may start this week out in a lazy mood, Leo. First of all, let it be known that this is okay! You are a dynamo, and you often don’t feel like yourself if you aren’t delving into something that needs to be done, while simultaneously making a to-do list for another day. But you need to replenish yourself from time to time, and the first half of this week would be the perfect time to do this. Even if you only take a few hours, do something that is just for yourself, for you are almost always thinking of and doing things for others. As soon as Tuesday, this mood should be lifted, and you will likely be feeling far more energized. This is the perfect time to look into a matter that may have legal or contractual ties that possibly had some puzzling elements to it. You may be able to get down to the bottom of a mystery, relieving your mind of any concerns.

(23 August - 22 September)

If you use the strange vibe that seems to pervade this week to your advantage, you could make some very interesting discoveries. It may seem like unusual opportunities are arriving on your doorstep, and they may be compelling enough to want to learn more. The sense of intrigue you feel could inspire you to learn more about something that is very new to you, and that’s a good thing. You have been stuck in the same old routine for too long, and exploring something new and different will have the effect of waking you up emotionally. Go for it. By Tuesday, you may find yourself stumbling over words or generally finding it difficult to express yourself. But there is nothing wrong with you, Virgo. You may just not be ready to share what you are feeling about a personal matter - even with the one who is directly involved. That’s fine. Take your time.

(23 September - 22 October)

Although this week may not be entirely without problems, Libra, you should find that whatever challenges arise, you will have someone there waiting to help you out. So, this could be an especially productive week, for when problems happen, you will have the assistance you need to know the best course of action. But many things will also go very right this week for you. A contractual or business matter that seemed like it would never be resolved may show positive signs of turning out well and come to fruition soon. You may also find that a conflict you experienced with a friend some weeks ago - one that may have been very upsetting to you - is beginning to turn around. A discovery may be made that will allow you to resume your close relationship once again. Try to resist the urge to “fit in” with a group you spend time with.

(23 October- 21 November)

Although this may not be an ideal week to make and implement a really big decision or change, it is a very good time to start thinking about what you want to do. You may be getting impatient about something that has been evolving in your life, Scorpio, but rushing is not advised; and now in particular, the energy is not the greatest for the kind of moves you want to make. Use this time to constructively and painstakingly figure out your strategy, and when the right moment arrives, you will be ready. Some element of your past that you have clung to, perhaps because it represented some aspect of your glory days, may be dragging you down more than you think. When you compare what you want in the here and now with some perfect moment in the past, you are doing yourself a disservice because you can’t duplicate what happened way back when.

(22 November- 21 December)

Try to be more aware of the feelings of someone in your inner circle this week. This individual may have come to you seeking solace, but you may have mistaken their motive for something else. You have great empathy, Sagittarius, but it lies deep beneath a surface that is cynical at times. If you give the benefit of the doubt, you will see someone bloom in your presence. You may be having a hard time vocalizing how you feel about a situation in your life that has left you with some disappointment. But as hard as it may be to talk about, it is important that you seek out someone you trust - someone who is good at listening and giving feedback - and express what you are feeling the best way you can. It may not be perfect, but sometimes the simple act of venting can do a lot to uplift your spirit.

(22 December- 19 January)

It may seem that someone in the center of your life is trying to get you to read between the lines to figure out the message they want to convey to you. First of all, Capricorn, that’s just not fair. Game playing is not your style, and it’s a childish and foolish way to go about communicating something that is important. Secondly, even if you were to try to decipher their message, you could get it wrong. If someone refuses to discuss an important matter in a mature and fair way, just refuse to engage. When they are ready to share, they will come to you. Most people have some level of intuition, and you are no exception. However, you may be extra sensitive this week, and you need to be wary of any conclusions you come to base on what you perceive as intuitive feelings.

(20 January - 18 February)

A conversation about the past could arise out of a seemingly casual exchange this week, Aquarius. This is something you really do need to talk through, so don’t change the subject. Be sure to say exactly what you are feeling so you can clear any negative thoughts out of your memory. There is really something to savor here that you may be overlooking in lieu of beating yourself up over a mistake. Take the good and leave behind the bad. If you have an important letter to write or a message to convey in some other way, take great care before you deliver it. There may be pieces that are missing, and the more you go over it and think about it, the clearer it will become. This can be a great work of communication if you think it through thoroughly. An appointment or meeting or some step forward with something you are eager to complete could be postponed this week. Don’t let that disappoint you, however.

(19 February - 20 March)

This week, Pisces, you might come to better understand the powerful benefits of networking to get something done that is important to you. Because you are usually so great with people, this can be an especially strong way for you to push through some ideas on your agenda. You have a natural talent for seeing people for who they really are, such as their stronger and weaker sides, understanding what makes them tick, and finding ways to inspire and motivate them, and that might come very useful this week as you should be especially insightful. Join forces for a big push toward what you want. You may now be questioning certain rules or restrictions at work or in a community situation. Although you may be right, and making changes may be possible with this in the near future, this is not a good week to cause any kind of upset. You might want to just plant the seeds by sharing ideas, but don’t be pushy about it just yet.
