Your weekly dose of astrology

Aries
During late last year, you started a project related to your work, health and/or daily life. Now you arrive at a turning point in which you must decide whether to pour more resources into it. Chances are, you will feel it worth the effort. Your energy level is high and you have a need to use your muscles.

Taurus
The act of caring for a friend may provide a healing balm for both of you. This week is especially good for discussing important subjects with partners. You each are in a cooperative frame of mind and communications flow well. You can give and receive mutual help at this time and improve the overall energy in the relationship.

Gemini
Mercury, your ruling planet, moves into the sector of life related to children, recreation, personal creativity, and romance. You likely will be a chatter box, relative to your norm. One or more communications will allow you to sooth a wound from the past.

Cancer
You are in a physical low cycle. Give attention to your health, lest it break down under pressure. You may fall into negative self-talk, which only causes you to feel worse.
Focus attention on what you are thinking and change dark thoughts to neutral, if not positive.

Leo
Your plans and ideas may be challenged by another at this time, perhaps a co-worker or a sibling. In order to hold your own in this situation, you must have clarity about who you have become. Do your best to generate a win-win situation out of the duel, and avoid a frank battle of wills. Each of you has a truth. A larger perspective will handle both.

Virgo
Your ruling planet, Mercury, moves into the sector related to personal income and resources for the next two to three weeks.  Your attention will be drawn to organising your financial picture. Perhaps there is a large expenditure that you wish to make. Give this careful thought and planning. By next week you will be emotionally ready to spring for it.

Libra
This is the week to recognise and cease to repeat a compulsive pattern, with origins in your childhood. Sometimes it requires a major episode to bring the damaging behaviour to light. If you are willing to “see” this pattern upfront, maybe you won’t have to act it out again.

Scorpio
During late last year, you began a new friendship. The two of you may have hatched a plan for travel. Something has changed since the inception of that plan and you may find that you have altered your choice. You now have a need to be somewhere that will satisfy your desire for solitude and communing with your soul.

Sagittarius
This is a week of peaks in your social activity. Your planetary avatar is squared by Mars and you could easily be encouraged to spend money you do not have. Everything seems important and strikes you with passionate fervour. It is important for you to remain financially cautious at this time. Don’t carry your credit cards on your travels.

Capricorn
It is of paramount importance that you control your mouth this week. Although you have an opinion about whatever is happening, let it go and say nothing unless asked to share it. Being “right” is not as important as maintaining human relations. Later you can take action to correct what you perceive is wrong, but now you would be challenged to a fight.

Aquarius
You have been pondering serious things in recent weeks and months. It is possible that you have critiqued yourself for not producing more in your life thus far. Your friends and family would readily tell you that who you are for them is by far greater than what you have produced. Listen to them.

Pisces
You are happily preparing for travel at this time. If finances are an issue, you may go overboard on your credit cards. Fortunately debts owed to you will likely be paid this week, which makes it harder to remain conservative on your spending. Everyone gets party favours!
