ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)
What monumental personal goal decision will you make this fresh new year, Aries? You are poised for greatness and seem to have your eye squarely on the prize. But craft your personal message carefully so that it is not misconstrued or misinterpreted. The bosses may be hard of hearing, but I know that you will get your message across loud and clear.
TAURUS (APRIL 21 - MAY 21)
Itchy travelling feet must be scratched now, Taurus, or you will wander off into uncharted territories. So carefully plan a faraway exotic trip that not only excites your mind but also your senses. It will get you out of your routine and rut and set you on a course of inspiration. Before you know it you will be ready to tackle anything with new verve. Go for the touchdown.
GEMINI (MAY 22 - JUNE 21)
If you are feeling a little hot under the collar this January it may be coming from other areas of your body. Geminis are sizzly and especially sexy now and might be seeking new and passionate connections. Whatever revs your engine will get you going. But take things slowly and be discerning about who you choose. Are those skid marks I see on the side of the road...?
CANCER (JUNE 22 - JULY 23)
Find ways of connecting with those who are very important in your life, Cancer. Building stronger bridges and spending more time cultivating all types of relationships become especially valuable through the year. It is also a good time to handle those who are obviously not working for your benefit. You muster the self control and charm to win them over... and then...
LEO (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)
Put your mind to work in ways that can lower your stress and make you a calmer, healthier person, Leo. That means you need to focus on life’s basics - food, rest, exercise and meditation. Before you know it you will have more reserves of energy, more oomph in your workday and will get more things done correctly. Then you can totally relax!
VIRGO (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)
Party season will not end with the holidays, Virgo. You now have the uncanny ability to sniff out any great party or celebration and wrangle an invitation. Pace yourself and have a good time. It might even inspire you to take a new direction in your life or try something artistic or imaginative. But dressing as a potted plant to work may not be one of them.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)
There are many things to do around the house now. Libras with an eye to redecorating or even reconnecting with long lost family members will come up with some great solutions. Plan for the long term in any domestic situation. That can mean saving up for a big move or planning ahead for a big reunion. Whatever you do will make you feel more secure and in control.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)
If you see something, say something, Scorpio. Not only can you sugarcoat even terrible news or withering criticism, you can actually make others feel fairly good about it. Practice makes perfect. Try your lines in a friendly arena and see who applauds. When in doubt, talk to yourself in the mirror. Do you like what you hear and who you see?
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)
There are times when you should be carefully crafting your fiscal budget and there are times when you should loosen your purse strings and enjoy life a little more expensively. This may be one f those times, Sagittarius. What is it that you have always wanted? If you have the discretionary cash, try to make your dreams come true. Life is too short.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)
If you find yourself in the middle of too many events, take a cold look around and see if there is anyone there who can make your life easier and help you out of a jam. Then make a beeline to them and turn up the charm. Capricorns will rub elbows with the high and mighty for a while. They will show you when to wear the elbow pads so you don’t chaff..
AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)
With all of this stuff going on behind the scenes, it is no wonder that you might become a little paranoid this January, Aquarius. But you may find that you need not worry about others’ motivations. There is karmic payback with a guardian angle meddling in for good measure. You seem to be protected and will not only survive but also thrive. Take your revenge later....
PISCES (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)
There will be increased importance on platonic relationships now, Pisces. That means that you should reach out to pals who you haven’t seen in a while as well as move in new social circles. Join a new club or organization and see who you can meet and greet. Those who you meet now may play a bigger role in your life in the coming months. And even if not, it will be fun.
