Expect a planetary pile up as Venus and Mercury oppose retrograde Uranus. Things get upended this week as our thoughts, communications and general expressions of love go astray. Watch where you step. Whoops!

ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)
Your sexiest moves may unintentionally cost you plenty, Aries. So if you decide to give your heart to a certain paramour, read the fine print in the expectations of the relationship. You think you are being clear in your communication but someone else is not listening or is re-interpreting what you say. So try to tamp down on any big promises ... if you can.
TAURUS (APRIL 21 - MAY 21)
There may be a tipping point in a certain relationship this week as demands from partners may require a careful discussion. Are you feeling free and independent? Or do you feel tied down and hemmed in? Some Taureans like to feel close and other prefer to roam free.. Decide what you really want and very diplomatically explain to others why.
GEMINI (MAY 22 - JUNE 21)
As hard as you work, there are times this week that you would prefer to disappear into the background and quietly meditate. So find time for work and life balance when you can, Gemini. There may be more unexpected and stressful twists and turns. But you are up to the task by handling as much as you can and delegating the overflow. Vacation time is looking good.
CANCER (JUNE 22 - JULY 23)
As much as you love to kick back and just have fun, there are friends who get in your festive way. It is the smart Cancer who allows others their opinion and enables everyone to feel involved and content. There will be time to blaze your own trail and do what you want to do later. For now, try to follow the crowd while you gently boss the course.
LEO (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)
Domestic issues face off with your career obligations this week and your attentions are being pulled in two directions.Everyone wants a piece of you. Everyone needs your help. So just take a deep breath, Leo, and see exactly where your best efforts have the greatest impact to solve problems. And remember that there are some issues that cannot be solved right away.
VIRGO (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)
While you have some great insights and opinions, now may not be the best time to express them, Virgo. In fact, the less you say, the smarter you will appear to others. Expansive plans such as world travel or a new course of study may not go fast enough for you or may have some unexpected problems. Take it all in stride now and wait until next week for next steps.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)
You simply cannot buy the affections of others, though you may try, Libra. Instead of trying to impress someone with lavish gifts, why not let them see the real, vulnerable you and love you for who you are? Even better, use this week to treat yourself to something frivolous or delightful. You deserve some spoiling and you are just the one to do it!
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)
Scorpios are in the center of attention and are ready to show off just how smart and charismatic they are. But forget about impressing someone in particular. You may not know what they are really thinking or what their motives are. Play, instead, to the general crowd and see how many new followers you can gather. Today the local podium. Tomorrow the globe.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)
There is a part of you that is very flattered to be asked to do more important projects at work but be careful of taking on much more than you can easily handle, Sagittarius. There is something in the offer that can surprise and bog you down. The way to approach any offer is to listen to what they say and then give yourself plenty of time to quietly review.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)
Spend time reviewing your social commitments to see if there are some that you can politely defer. Sparks of creativity seem to throw you off course, Capricorn, away from the crowd and into your own sphere. No sooner do you have a brilliant idea than another, equally brilliant, one emanates. Or maybe you just think they are brilliant? Let’s just see...
AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)
Don’t allow your long term plans to get derailed because a family member disagrees. Aquarians are very independently minded but sometimes you can be swayed by others’ opinions. Forget it. You know what is right for you. Plan your course of action carefully and, once you see an opening, take it. Others will simply have to adjust or accept. You are right.
PISCES (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)
You know what you want to say but the words may not come out right. You feel deeply, Pisces, and want to make your intentions known and understood. But wait a little longer. Instead of expressing your opinions on a certain subject, wait for the right time to say what you want to say. And, even then, be prepared for a few surprises along the way.
