How will our world shift as Mars moves into a square-off with the Sun, Mercury and Venus? Surprises pile up ... and not a moment too soon! We have become too sedate and self satisfied. Now is the time for a change.

ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)
Expect the unexpected in any happy jaunt, especially those that take you far afield. Aries may feel like globetrotting but find that they trip up along the way. That is okay, as long as you avoid the deep potholes and bleak alleys. While it may bring you in touch with some very interesting folks, they may be a little too interesting, if you know what I mean.
TAURUS (APRIL 21 - MAY 21)
The focus is on relationships. Taureans are full of zest and avidly seek deep connection now. But the result of any carefree, heart-throbbing encounter is not guaranteed to last very long. As time goes on, you might find that your tastes have changed. Be gentle and try, try again. Just be sure to pack some common sense this time.
GEMINI (MAY 22 - JUNE 21)
You find love and romance in the strangest places, which means you will have to get out on the town and make yourself available for viewing. Eat drink and be very merry. And yet before you know it, your career demands your full attention and ties you to the office. Don’t let too many things stagnate. Try not to get bogged down at work during party season.
CANCER (JUNE 22 - JULY 23)
Cancers are focused on their job ... at least for the time being. And maybe that is because your work situation is in turmoil and it offers you an interesting distraction from the routine of your life. Be prepared for anything in your career. And be warned - sooner than you think, the world will call you to get politically involved. Suddenly your job will seem quiet!
LEO (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)
Leos might upset their carefully balanced life by taking a foolish risk in an established relationship. What you think will be the end result may not happen at all. Surprises are the only constant now. Improve your chances of success by opening the lines of communication. You don’t have to be honest, just approachable. Then sell them what you can.
VIRGO (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)
Make your home a love nest and see who flies by and settles in. Virgos have more than their fair share of sexy opportunities but will need to be discerning about who they will invite home. Soon you find that you have so many enticing invitations that your sphere of influence expands and stretches. See if you can find your loveboat and get onboard.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)
Keep your eye on the job with the ultimate goal of saving anything and everything you make. Money makes the world go around for Libras, especially if they invest or save it. Too soon your overly generous spending habits win out over your new sensible frugality. But for now, get through the craziness at work by keeping your head down and your pockets full.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)
Your winning ways get you invitations to the top parties but the social frenzy may wind up being too much, too fast. Even Scorpios who tend to have good common sense can over-extend, over-do everything now. Of course someone might say that this is all part of your ultimate plan for a sprightly spring social season. Gather those rosebuds.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)
There is someone working behind the scenes who is trying to help you. Try not to thwart their efforts by dredging up the past and eyeing impossible projects and goals. Sagittarians can enjoy this crazy time if they allow themselves a little down time and a redirection of their attention to domestic tasks. But don’t worry – that does not necessarily mean doing laundry.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)
Consider friendships to be just another sticky situation to be navigated. Friends say want to honest truth. But do they, Capricorn? Something you honestly say may not be what they want to hear. Make a sharp appraisal of any platonic situation and see if sugar will work better than salt. You would want the same, should the situation be reversed.
AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)
Even if you think everything is okay, you could face a surprising upheaval now. Will your political fortunes change dramatically? Possibly. Will you be able to benefit for any major changes? Maybe. For now, spread your charm as thick as possible, Aquarius, and massage the power elite carefully. Who knows? Your next office could even have a door and walls.
PISCES (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)
Self promotion is sometimes difficult for you. But now you can expect some attention for yourself in extreme ways. Carefully control your message, Pisces. You make your entrance onto center stage in a range of disguises. Who do you want to be? Whoever you are, it will be a splashy surprise that makes headlines. So avoid transparent mini-shorts just in case.
