HOROSCOPE

All signs: Until 5:30 p.m. Saturday, we have the ‘all clear’ to shop and do business. The Moon is in Cancer.

Aries (March 21-April 19) Saturday: Get more sleep because you need this during the next few weeks. In the meantime, use this placement of the Sun to observe your style of relating to others.

Sunday: This is a glorious day. The Moon is in your fellow Fire sign, lined up with Jupiter! Enjoy schmoozing because it’s a great day for parties, casual get-togethers, playful activities with children, the arts and sports events.

This week: For the next six weeks, Mars is at the top of your chart. The last time this happened was in November. 2014. The next time will be March 2018. It means your ambition will be so aroused. You will bust your buns working hard to achieve something because you really want to do it. And you will want to do it independently. And you will want the credit! This could stir up problems with co-workers, bosses and parents. Be cool.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Saturday: Continue to look for ways to get better organized because this will please you. Messy surroundings create confused internal energy.

Sunday: This is a productive day. Alternatively, you might just want to hide at home. Either way, positive feelings permeate this day. Something might trigger work-related travel for you.

This week: For the next six weeks, Mars will make you want to travel and explore new ideas. It will energize any creative intellectual work you do. It will make you identify with your beliefs, especially beliefs about politics, religion and racial issues. Be careful because Mars is just energy, which is not to be confused with logic. Don’t force others to agree with your POV. (Caution: This is also a time of disputes with the law.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Saturday: Because this is such a playful month ahead, grab every chance to play, have fun, enjoy the arts and see sports events. Enjoy playful activities with children. Grab every chance to express your creativity.

Sunday: It’s party city for Geminis! Plan to have fun. Enjoy sports events, social outings, the arts, movies, playful times with children and schmoozing. You want to be active and you want to learn something new.

This week: For the next six weeks, Mars is in the House of Other People’s Money. Mars will create a strong focus in these areas! You will have strong opinions! You will fight with others about these issues. If you have a confrontation about these issues, you might have to modify your position.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Saturday: Your focus on home, family and your personal life will be strong the next few weeks. Just accept this and go with it. Redecorating projects in particular might appeal. You will also enjoy entertaining at home.

Sunday: You are wondering if you have the dough for a real-estate deal. You also want to afford home repairs and redecorating projects. The next 12 months are a chance to benefit from anything related to real estate and home.

This week: For the first time since late 2014, Mars is opposite your sign until Nov. 9. When Mars is opposite your sign, it makes you impatient. Partners and close friends seem to be annoying! The upside is that too often, we don’t really say what we mean. We hide our true feelings. We especially hide our petty peeves. So this will be the time to air your grievances and speak up about what upsets you.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Saturday: This is a busy, fastpaced time. You’re talking to everyone, running errands, making plans, plus reading, writing and studying more than usual. Sunday: This is a fabulous day! The Moon is in your sign and Jupiter is lined up with your ruler the Sun. This invigorates you and makes you feel positive and energetic! You will enjoy meeting new people and seeing new places.

This week: During the next six weeks, Mars will bring Leos benefit because it will make you work hard! Suddenly, you will throw energy into a project because you need to complete it. Mars does not promote teamwork. Mars want credit. Mars is singular energy — and downright pushy.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Saturday: Money continues to be your focus because you’re laying the groundwork for ways to boost your income in the next 18 months! Meanwhile, enjoy buying beautiful things for yourself and loved ones.

Sunday: This is a good money day. Think of how you can boost your assets and wealth. Trust your money-making ideas.

This week: Mars is connected with one’s personal gratification, and can be viewed as selfish. For the next six weeks, you will be more ‘selfish.’ You want fun, pleasure and good times! You want to do exactly what you want to do to have fun. It also creates conflict between you and your kids. Be careful here. You are the adult.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Saturday: Go after what you want because the Sun, Jupiter and Venus are in your sign. These are the most three favourable influences! It makes you energetic, forthright, strong, and charming, diplomatic, warm and friendly and lucky!

Sunday: Jupiter is lined up with the Sun in your sign. This is not common. It will happen again in 2017 — then not again for another 11 years. Pack as much as you can into your day.

This week: In the next six weeks, Mars will create haywire on your home scene. There will be greater activity where you live because of residential moves, renovations, redecorating projects or visiting guests. This is difficult because you need harmony in your surroundings. Find ways of buffering and protecting yourself from the chaos around you.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Saturday: You will not regret taking a little time to write down some goals for your new year.

Sunday: Details about your private life might be public in the eyes of bosses, parents, VIPs and the police. It’s a feel-good day.

This week: In the next six weeks, you will come on like gangbusters! You will say what you mean and mean what you say! Mostly this will be because you will fervently believe what you say. You will identify with your ideas. The downside is you will be too pushy with others.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Saturday: Enjoy your increased popularity for the next few weeks. Join clubs, groups and associations. Make a point of contacting friends and spending time with them.

Sunday: This is a wonderful day to be involved with groups, clubs and organizations. You want to rally your troops and set them marching! Time spent with friends will please you.

This week: Sagittarians want to get rich quick. In the next six weeks, Mars will stimulate your cash flow and your desire to have things. If you have a lot of stuff, you must be ‘worth more.’ But this is not true. The good news is you will work hard to buy what you want; and you will also work hard to take care of what you have.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Saturday: It’s good to know that because of a planetary influence, you look very good to people in authority. Since this magical smoke and mirrors trick is taking place — go after what you want.

Sunday: You make a fabulous impression on others, especially bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and the police. That means it’s a good day to ask for permission or approval for something.

This week: Mars is in your sign until Nov. 9. (The last time was Nov. 2014.) Because Mars stirs up lots of energy in your life, the first thing you will notice is that there will be increased activity. You will work hard to show the world what you can do. You will be more of a fighter for your rights. The downside is that you might be too bossy. Don’t be insensitive to the needs and wants of others.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Saturday: Travel if you can because this will satisfy your urge to grab more of life. You want to learn more. You want to see more. This is a good time to sign up for a course or return to school.

Sunday: You want to get outta Dodge, which is why you are nursing big travel plans. In the next 12 months, you will likely travel much more than usual.

This week: Mars will be ‘ hiding’ in your chart for the next six weeks, stirring up lots of energy behind the scenes. Unfortunately, this can make you might feel irritable. You might do things that create the wrong impression. The upside is you will be more aware of your self-defeating behaviour and learn how to curb it or stop it.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Saturday: You are focused now on shared property, taxes, debt and the wealth of your partners. There seems to be something you have to sort out. But you can do it because this is a time of harvest.

Sunday: You couldn’t pick a better day to settle disputes about shared property. This is also a great day to ask for a loan or a gift or help because people will be generous to you.

This week: Mars will travel through a public and active part of your chart in the next six weeks, boosting the energy of all your relationships, especially friends and groups. But this energy does not always lend well to teamwork. It means you have to coordinate your goals with the goals of others because you will easily take over a team or a group.

If Your Birthday Is Today: Celebrity chef Robert Irvine (1965) shares your birthday. Justice and fair play are important to you. You are co-operative, optimistic and full of creative, positive ideas.
