VIRGO (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)
Do you have ants in your pants? Well not really, but you do feel a bit antsy this week. Pack your bags and buy a ticket. It is a great time to travel or at least get out of your usual routine. You need new stimuli and adventure. If money is tight, reach out to the world in other ways. Study, cruise the internet or get out of the neighborhood. Think all things new. So nu, Virgo?
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)
Libras are ready for a deeply passionate experience. There is something sexy in the air that makes you especially alluring and headed towards all sorts of mischief. Your various amours come from far afield, can be unusual, different from your usual choices and may arrive unexpectedly. Fall head over heels for a dream today but pack a pillow for a softer landing later.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)
When the cruel world has its way with you, thank goodness you can find your own private cheering section. Relationships become even more important to you over the next few weeks so treat partners with all the love and respect they deserve. Scorpios will learn to give and take. Let’s hope it is more on the former than on the latter. Hint hint.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)

In fact, things that you accomplish now will have a nice pay off in the not too distant future. Plant those seeds. You will be happily surprised at what will sprout. Do you have a green thumb...?
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)
If you can’t seem to concentrate on the nitty gritty details, don’t worry. The planets take you on a wild, frivolous detour for the next few weeks. Capricorns are giddy, silly and even a bit savant. The point of life is to explore your creativity, expand your mind and enjoy the fun while it lasts. Procrastinate at work, baby! Payback will be a killer.... but worth it!
AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)
If you find yourself hanging around the house for the next few weeks, make good use of your downtime. While there will be various opportunities to improve your surroundings through redecoration or renovation, your energy may be directed to more relaxing and sociable outlets. Aquarians are perfectly content to lounge. Do you have the proper attire? Is there any?
PISCES (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)
In the past you might have said the wrong thing at the most inappropriate time. Pisces are known for their, ahem, “creative” thoughts. But now you become a calculating wordsmith who is compelling and convincing. Speak from the heart, take your dusty theories off the shelf and try them out. Very risky ideas can create a new exciting movement. But in which direction?
