HOROSCOPES

The rare and formidable alignment of Capricorn transits— most notably, Jupiter, Saturn, Ceres, and Pluto—has been putting and will continue to put the squeeze on reality. Pluto, agent for the soul, swings its wrecking ball on that which is past its due date. On Friday, Ceres leaves Capricorn for Aquarius. In a karmic seeding-and-harvesting transit, for the next two months Ceres will “bring it to life”. Hopefully, the Ceres transit will fast-track the growth of climate-change activism.

The moon tours smooth-running Taurus for Super Bowl weekend. Indulge; enjoy while the getting is good.

ARIES

March 20–April 20

Thursday/Friday keeps you going strong, but come Friday night, you are likely to feel inclined to park yourself somewhere. Saturday/Sunday, your timing is good. A full-tothe-brim week lies ahead. Monday/ Tuesday can dish up extras or distractions. Mercury into Pisces can stir up potential or expose something that has escaped full notice.

TAURUS

April 20–May 21

Come Friday evening, you’ll be ready for a change of scenery. The Taurus moon keeps you feeling all right, pacing it right, and making the most of it through the weekend. Mercury in Pisces, starting Monday, helps you to navigate your way through a challenge or a stretch.

GEMINI

May 21–June 21

Slow down; go by feel this weekend. Aim for quality time with your lover or on your own. Monday/ Tuesday, the moon in Gemini sets wheels in motion. Even so, Mercury in Pisces could diminish ambition or self-control. Rather than force or use tough love, you’ll fare better when you use inspiration, curiosity, creativity, or positive incentive as the driving force.

CANCER

June 21–July 22

Spend your time on moneymaking, creative projects, or practical everyday stuff; with another or on your own, you’ll get good quality out of the weekend. The future is still a mystery, but Mercury, starting an extended tour of Pisces, will put more of it into view soon enough.

LEO

July 22–August 23

Take your time this weekend; do the job right and feel the reward. There’s no place better to be than right where you are. Monday/ Tuesday, go with the flow. Mercury in Pisces increases the changeability and uncertainty factor. For now, go with the flow. Keep open; keep game; keep exploring your options. Wednesday onward, you’ll gain a better sense of direction.

VIRGO

August 23–September 23

No matter what you get up to, it hits the spot right this weekend. Saturday/Sunday, the stars set up a good-as-it-gets backdrop. Enjoy. Reward yourself. Monday/Tuesday sets you onto a next page. Go by feel; stay flexible; think creatively. Another talk, a revisit, or something new added to the mix could do the trick quite nicely.

LIBRA

September 23–October 23

You are a sharpshooter Thursday/Friday. Instinct and intuition serve you well. Saturday/Sunday, ease up and take your time. Romance or an indulgent weekend hits it right. Mercury in Pisces, starting Monday, is better for putting creativity into play rather than signing yourself up for exacting or detailed work. Pump up on vitamins; wash your hands more.

SCORPIO

October 23–November 22

Thursday/Friday, quick is the best way to tackle it. Friday night through Sunday, take your time; enjoy your time. The quality or pleasure of it is worth the investment. Monday/ Tuesday can put extras, sidetracks, or more uncertainty in your way. One thing leads to another. Wednesday onward, you’ll get a better feel for what’s shaping up and how to play it next.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22–December 21

The moon in Taurus for the weekend favours creative projects, relaxation, good food, and good company. Monday/Tuesday turns your attention to errands and loose ends. Good intentions can get waylaid. It is easy to lose track of time. Go with the flow; feel your way along.

CAPRICORN

December 21–January 20

Aim for quick and easy activities or solutions. Friday night through Sunday keeps you/it humming along. Monday/Tuesday, catch up on paperwork, phone calls, studies, and errands. Double-check with folks; multitask if you can. Stay flexible.

AQUARIUS

January 20–February 18

Friday could get you going on something new. It could be lucrative or a good pick-me-up. This weekend, slow down, relax, and enjoy. As of Monday, it’s time to get the show on the road again. Through Tuesday, keep it casual and open-ended, stay noncommittal.

PISCES

February 18–March 20

Friday night through Sunday, call dibs on how you spend your time. As of Monday, Mercury begins an extended tour of Pisces. Life, its a total immersion process. You’ll continue to sort your way through a circumstance, key relationship, or emotional track through mid-April.
