Aries (March 20 – April 19)

You may have opinions or even be in possession of crucial facts. But that doesn’t mean it’s wise to raise them now. Judging by this week’s tricky planetary setup, others are already struggling with perplexing situations. Revelations of the sort you’d make would contribute nothing and could even heighten tensions.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Recent discussions were promising but, as a Taurus and an earth sign, you want solid facts before making any commitments. However, things are moving so swiftly you may be unable to get the variety of information you’re seeking. This means either bypassing opportunities or picking up those facts as arrangements proceed.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

Since May 1, your ruler Mercury has been positioned in Gemini. During this unusually lengthy stay, you reviewed elements of your life you rarely think about and began making changes. While these will continue, from midweek onward you’ll find you must focus on the practical side of these arrangements as well.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Last week’s Full Moon brought several personal and relationship matters to a head, triggering numerous concerns. Much as you’d like these resolved swiftly, you’d regret it. By midmonth events will have forced others to deal with their responsibilities and, better yet, valuable facts about other issues will have been revealed.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

Nobody is more capable of being charming than a Leo. But you also know who you are and what you want. When circumstances or, perhaps, the demands of one particular individual cross that line, you become firm, if not ferocious. Still, consider what’s being suggested. It could be in your best interests.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

Although you’ve accomplished a great deal recently, often it’s been at the cost of certain activities you enjoy. But few tasks remain. This demanding cycle lasts until the 18th, when Venus moves into Virgo, shifting the focus from what you must do to what, and who, bring you greatest joy.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

Opportunities appear in many forms. While some are easily recognisable, those now coming your way will be as puzzling are they are intriguing. The trick is to show your interest but make no promises. If asked for a commitment, simply say you need to know more before you can make decisions.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

About four weeks ago the thorough Saturn returned to Scorpio, where it remains until mid-September. Although you may fear a repeat of the challenges you faced from late 2012 until last December, on the contrary, this is about picking and choosing what, and who, is worthwhile and which should go.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

Because the emotionally intense Full Moon, a week ago, accented already complex issues, you’re still thinking about these. In fact, you’re having trouble ignoring them. That’s because it’s time to take action. If you’ve put this off because you’re anxious, just plunge in. Each step you take will reveal what’s next.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

Ordinarily you spring back from very challenging situations. Still, those triggered by last Thursday’s Capricorn Full Moon roused an emotional intensity you rarely experience, if not unsettling feelings of vulnerability. Tempting as it is to brush these aside, take time to reflect on them. You’ll be amazed how much you learn.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 17)

Tackling and putting to rest tedious duties is, in itself, rewarding. But what you learn in the process could be unexpectedly informative. While you’ll begin thinking certain matters are straightforward, you’ll discover they’re more complex than you anticipated. In fact, what comes to light could explain why certain issues are so puzzling.

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

Judging by the series of brilliant planetary aspects to your ruler Neptune, this week and next, near-miraculous events could resolve existing dilemmas and lead to exciting new ideas or offers. While your instincts will tell you these are reliable, if not astonishing, certain less trusting individuals could insist you sidestep them.
