YOUR ZODIAC SIGN
ARIES (MARCH 21 TO APRIL 20) You are in a particularly good time frame with Jupiter giving you wonderful aspects. Look for ways to increase your income and capitalize on what you know. Learning new things is always a good idea for ambitious Aries natives. A smart Sagittarian man will offer help, so be sure to let him; he has much to offer.
TAURUS (APRIL 21 TO MAY 21) Venus, your ruler, travels through the constellations of Cancer and Leo, so people of those zodiac signs will now figure prominently in your life. Pay special attention to these people, because they are likely to have good ideas or information for you. The people you work with now are more agreeable than usual. A vacation by the seaside with family is on your horizon.
GEMINI (MAY 22 TO JUNE 21) Mercury, your ruler, goes retrograde on July 8 and direct on August 2, so do not make important decisions between those dates. After August 2 you will be thinking more clearly. The information you receive will be more accurate and dependable, and there is apt to be a smooth path ahead. It’s a super time to start a new venture, join a new group or make a new friend.
CANCER (JUNE 22 TO JULY 22) The new moon on July 2 will bring invitations from family members you haven’t seen for a while. Put off visiting until late August when the sun goes into Leo, and the fun planet Jupiter is direct. You always love to be near a beach where you can relax. July and August are a good time for you to vacation.
LEO (JULY 23 TO AUGUST 22) Your ruler, the sun, is moving closer to Earth, so you can enjoy the great outdoors. Swimming, golf, baseball, tennis or just lounging on the beach are your natural pastimes. You’re a natural leader and enjoy center stage.
VIRGO (AUGUST 23 TO SEPTEMBER 23) Take it easy in July and plan a vacation in August. Demands on your time will calm down when your ruler, Mercury, goes into Leo on August 12. Plan a trip to a place you’ve never been; sightseeing is good for you and will stimulate your excellent mind and give you new ideas. You always enjoy learning and traveling. You like to write, and you notice things others do not; this makes you a good conveyor of facts and complex details.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 24 TO OCTOBER 23) Family and very close friends should be close by, making you happy. Jupiter is giving you a good aspect, bringing you a lot of fun things to do. A brother or sister should be especially eager to see you and has important news. A new baby girl is in the not-too-distant future. That will surprise everybody.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 TO NOVEMBER 21) Your ruler, Mars, and co-ruler, Pluto, are both ultra-strong planets. They make you not only strong but also sometimes stubborn and extremely secretive. Scorpios are smart, and they know what to do and say next.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 TO DECEMBER 21) Sagittarians, you need to be careful and not overdo. Jupiter is in your sign for about a year and can cause you to be overwhelmed with too many choices. Step back and analyze what you want. This is an important time, so don’t rush it. Too much of a good thing can cause weight gain, anxiety and confusion. There is a need to carefully figure out what you want to do next.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 TO JANUARY 20) Serious contemplation is needed. You are in an unusual celestial cycle that requires careful planning. Take full advantage of your choices. Earning a living with an appropriate job, investments and intense effort is important. Your learning skills are at a peak. Unusually good opportunities abound. It’s also time to consult other Capricorns in your business life. This is not a time to be lazy. Make good use of this cycle to study, work hard and advance.
AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21 TO FEBRUARY 19) Your ruler, Uranus, is making the kinds of moves that may keep you feeling that things are hard to predict. Just think through your choices carefully and take your time. You are likely to try something new and then quickly move back to your first choice. At least it will be an exciting and eventful time. Whatever you do, your love life will be exciting.
PISCES (FEBRUARY 20 TO MARCH 20) People and events around you are moving at a fast pace. You are in a very busy time frame. Neptune, your ruler, is in Pisces, so you should be content with the way things are going. Finances look particularly good, so your investments should be paying off. As a Pisces you are happy in places that take you near water. You are a good fisherman and like boats. You have significant opportunities coming your way and can expect more good news soon.
