ARIES   (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)

Anything involving money, finances and investments have moments of surprise, Aries. That might be because things are churning in the background and your career may take a momentous move. Keep your mind active on the essentials and give yourself time to react. There is opportunity here if you remain flexible.

TAURUS (APRIL 21-MAY 21)

While you may need to postpone any big travel, chalk it up to more things happening with friends closer to home. Taureans feel like they need to make a big social splash but I suggest that you allow the fates to give you time to refocus the social landscape so you can effectively move with the movers and groove with the groovers.

GEMINI   (MAY 22 - JUNE 21)

Is it true love or the professional opportunity of a lifetime? Life plays out in various ways and creates important choices that shift and baffle. Don’t panic as the stress level could rise. Sudden surprises may toss you a little off kilter, Gemini, but you are versatile enough to use any cosmic zetz to your ultimate advantage.

CANCER   (JUNE 22 - JULY 23)

Friends do the unexpected and it can change your entire global outlook, Cancer. Their actions are well intentioned but surprising. Such relationships have a way of transforming, shifting and changing but the fates see these as necessary evolutions. It’s change where change is needed. Now go out and conquer the world.

LEO   (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)

Long term plans have a way of dramatically changing based on newly gained knowledge, Leo. Your role in this adventure is to focus on the details to see which avenue has the greatest benefit for you. Deep issues will be analyzed and problems uncovered and therefore solved to your benefit. Dig deep and examine carefully.

VIRGO   (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)

Travel may have its upsets or surprises, Virgo which can impact certain relationships and spark some creative ideas for making them more interesting. Let’s just say that life will not be boring and your ability to mine your imagination can benefit you in unexpected and dramatic ways. Keep your eye on the prize and add some glitter.

LIBRA   (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)

Family events bring on some unexpected deep feelings for you Libra. This catharsis leads you to new revelations. Also, there may be some projects that need your close attention. If so, be prepared to take longer than you expect – instructions may not be as clear as needed or there may be too much to focus on at one time.

SCORPIO   (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)

Don’t be surprised if certain relationships unexpectedly shift and change, Scorpio. Your mind is sharp and your ability to imagine new possibilities for yourself enhances your life and leads to new liaisons. While your communication is profound, find more ways to listen without commenting. You learn more that way.

SAGITTARIUS   (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)

Is your energy level wonky, Sagittarius? It may be that you need more rest time and less stress time over the next few weeks. There are changes in your home life that can use your expertise and financial acumen. But what seems vitally important now may change as new information becomes apparent. Watch and wait.

CAPRICORN   (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)

Surprises occur with any creative project, Capricorn, partly because communication needs some improvement or clarification. Focus on the essentials and see where you make a positive contribution. All goes well and you can make a big splash in any social pool once the details are reviewed and approved.

AQUARIUS   (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)

Things may turn out to be a bit more expensive than you first thought, Aquarius, particularly when it comes to family events and home related projects. You are practical and seem to know what you can accomplish within the budget. Perhaps get some advice from friends who see the full landscape and set of needs.

PISCES   (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)

You make an interesting first impression Pisces. This not only impacts which social groups you decide to join, it can also change the dynamics of your immediate neighborhood. A lot is riding on your ability to carve out a sensible game plan for your future needs and desires. Think about it now but don’t act until much later.
