Straight Stars

EJune 8 to 14, 2017
xpect bigger, more, further, and/or faster. Friday delivers a super full moon in Sagittarius. On the fun end, a great adventure could have your name written all over it. Hop a plane; hit the dance floor; let the good times roll in whatever way you hear the call.
On another note: have you been on the hunt or exploring options but haven’t figured it out yet? The clarity, solution, or answer is on the way. Look to the super full moon to make your best pick obvious or shoot the arrow straight. The future hits the action switch, perhaps in some striking or gifted-timing way.
Coinciding with Friday’s full moon, Jupiter (the ruling planet of Sagittarius) ends a four-month retrograde tour. During Jupiter retrograde, you may have questioned yourself, the merit of continuing, or the truth of what you know. These past few months may have also taken you through a major learning curve or kept a part of your life entrenched or on hold. Look to Jupiter on the forward move to help you to make great strides where it adds up the most.
While the full moon dominates the weekend, the moon’s trek into Capricorn keeps it under good control Saturday/sunday. Expect plans, time spent, and the weekend’s rewards to meet expectations.
On Tuesday, Mercury and the transiting Aquarius moon are well aligned with Jupiter. Put it out there: connect, talk, negotiate, sell, or get a move on. Wednesday is also good for business, social, or diving into something fresh.

Out of school now or soon? Onto a new page or new adventure? The time is ripe for making the most of it. Mercury, freshly into Gemini, and Friday’s full moon in Sagittarius keep you, it, and/or them going strong. Socialize, celebrate; get around town or get out of town this weekend. Use Tuesday/wednesday to make contact or get the dots connected.
CANCER June 21–July 22
Mars, freshly into Cancer, infuses you with fresh energy, motivation, and can-do. The time is ripe. Face it; take it on; put your all into it; go the distance.

Tuesday/wednesday, creativity and spontaneity do it best.
LEO

LIBRA
You’ve been feeling your way along for some time now. There have been many moving parts and plenty of sorting out to get through. For the past four months, Jupiter retrograde in Libra has kept you in a holding pattern. That’s over now. Full-moon Friday pulls out all the stops, perhaps all at once. Tuesday/wednesday are optimized for same-page accord.
SCORPIO
October 23–November 22
Venus and Mars, the relationship duo, and Mercury, quickwitted one, are on fresh sign changes. All three will now strike flint where you’ll appreciate it the most. Friday’s full moon is on turbocharge, thanks to the added power of Jupiter stationing direct. Take your best shot; give it all you have. A big move, investment, or initiative is where it’s at.
SAGITTARIUS November 22–December 21
Heart, mind, and soul— you’ll feel this one! The super full moon in Sagittarius and the end of Jupiter retrograde put your dynamo self into full play. It’s time to run with it, to fly, celebrate, or soar. Fresh adventure awaits. An insight, great idea, or great connection is well worth following through on. Saturday through next Wednesday keeps you/it moving along.
CAPRICORN December 21–January 20
Aiming for an escape? A romantic or getaway weekend, time to commune with God, to do more soul-searching, or to simply veg out—all are ideal picks. Mind you, the full moon is likely to pull you into something more or something unplanned. Saturday/sunday works best when you call the shots. Tuesday/wednesday sparks something fresh.
AQUARIUS
January 20–February 18
Friday’s full moon in Sagittarius is ideal for travel, pleasure-seeking, celebration, or a special event. Social- or businesswise, Friday through Tuesday/wednesday is great for a launch or for stumbling upon a fresh idea or two. Surprise news may be in the mix. Your timing, instincts, and special brand of genius strike it right.
PISCES
February 18–March 20
Thursday/friday makes it official and/or kicks it up a great big notch. In addition to a big announcement, a special event or milestone achieved, the full moon can signal the start of a whole new personal life or career chapter. A hello or goodbye could be said. Jupiter also puts money prospects on the go.
