Mercury is running amok as it retrogrades back into Aquarius, directs and re-enters Pisces now. Whew! Just when we though we clearly understood the situation and knew the landscape, we realize that we had it all wrong. Stay centered and hold on tight.

ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)
What is a secret among friends? Some say it isn’t important but apparently it can become a big thing for you now. Aries with the need to know all may find that there are a lot of gaps ... and surprises ... in what they thought was true. So hold no assumptions and wait for all of the dust to clear before you say anything dramatic. The script is still being written.
TAURUS (APRIL 21 - MAY 21)
Even your biggest boosters at work may say things that create confusion for you now. But try not to over react, Taurus. Don’t take any mentor’s words as reality. It may be that you misheard or that they didn’t mean what they said. My best advice is to stay the course, move slowly and deliberately and do the best you can. Soon it will all become clearer.
GEMINI (MAY 22 - JUNE 21)
Geminis take a mental trip to the moon. Your vision is grand and expansive but your ability to maximize any experience may not turn out as you expect. Manage expectations and don’t over promise. Things have a way of going astray and directions can change from minute to minute. Be flexible and open to the crazy possibilities so you can laugh about it later.
CANCER (JUNE 22 - JULY 23)
Will you give your heart to a total stranger or to one who is somewhat unreliable? Cancers can be in love with the idea of love and may not be as practical in affairs of the heart as they are in other areas of life. Be a little sceptical with anyone who is new and unfamiliar to you. They may mean well but may not deliver. Focus on your inner strength.
LEO (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)
Sexy Leos may think they rule in relationships but it may not be the case now. In fact, giving up some control is the best thing you can do, especially with those who have loyally stood by you. They need a bit of attention and care. Show your appreciation with acts of kindness rather than just talking about it. Words will not mean as much to them now.
VIRGO (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)
The way you work with others will not only impact what you can and cannot get done at work, it may also map out your future course. Virgos with a “can do” attitude will get the help they need. Those who have previously delegated most of the effort find that they need to step up and take personal action now. Help breeds helpers, as you will see.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)
Let the festivities begin! But know that whatever you are planning will be subject to unexpected changes. Libras may need to spec out the work for any creative project very carefully and listen closely to others when they offer advice. Cost overruns and confusion on specifics could actually result in a surprisingly better experience ... but I wouldn’t bet on it.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)
Scorpios with a sense of creative adventure can find it anywhere they look. But be careful of getting totally lost as your GPS takes you on tangents and detours. Before you know it, you can find yourself in the middle of the mayhem where no one speaks your language. No matter! You will eventually get to where you are going and what a trip it will be!
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)
This may not be the best time for a heavy discussion of issues with family. They aren’t listening anyway. Sagittarians with something on their minds might want to postpone airing anything and, instead, focus on the good things. There will be plenty of time to handle what needs to be handled. In the meantime, chill out, sit back and try to relax.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)
This may be the time when you need to let go of stuff. We can so easily get bogged down by things that we lose sight of what is most valuable to us. And it doesn’t help that your communications get a bit fuzzy. What you say may not be what you mean. But if you listen carefully to others and take slow careful action, all will work out. So, Capricorn, what will it be?
AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)
If you are planning on making a big first impression or trying something new, you will. But be sure you know what you are getting into, Aquarius. At some point this week (and maybe next) you need to check yourself in the mirror and see if you look as fabulous as you feel. If not, take a step back, review your messaging and practice, practice, practice.
PISCES (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)
Try not to listen to all those little voices in your head telling you conspiratorial theories. It is all in your fertile imagination, Pisces. Instead, try to trust the cosmos and take things as they come in real situations. You have a lot going for you and many wonderful options in play. Don’t get derailed on rumors and whisperings. Believe it when you see it.

declines with age and the AARP magazine reports that the survey shows almost 75% of those over 65 years old were not superstitious at all - more than any other age group. We tend to be more superstitious when we are younger partly because of pressure from family and peers.
