Aries (March 20 — April 19)
There are many varieties of promises. There are those that are made at the end of a convivial evening that nobody expects to keep. But the ones made in serious moments or involving those closest to you are another matter. They’re genuine commitments, which means having to change them will be all the more difficult.
Taurus (April 20 — May 20)
As is always the case when Mercury is in retrograde, you’re facing a series of minor errors. The only problem is that because it’s positioned in the portion of your chart that accents finances, those mistakes could be expensive. For this reason you’ll want to closely monitor what comes in and goes out.
Gemini (May 21 — June 20)
Somebody seems determined to have their way, and they’ll do anything to make it happen. That includes deceiving you. While initially their manoeuvres won’t trigger concerns, eventually you’ll realise that, on the one hand, they’re being far too friendly while, on the other, they’re extremely secretive.
Cancer (June 21 — July 22)
Although the Full Moon isn’t until early next week, because it accents certain already tricky situations, once minor issues seem to be building up into major ones. Tempting as it is to do what you can to defuse them, it’s both unwise and unnecessary. Most will pass as swiftly as they arose.
Leo (July 23 — August 22)
On occasion everybody needs a boost, especially if the emotional side of life is stressful, as has been the case lately. While you might wish for an indication that your fortunes will improve, there’s a faster, surer way to lift your spirits. That is to do something for somebody else. It never fails.
Virgo (August 23 — September 22)
While every sign is influenced by Mercury being in retrograde, because it’s your ruling planet, you sometimes take the inevitable mistakes too seriously. Even those that seem to be your fault are actually no more than part of this cycle, one that’s as much about growth as the occasional error.
Libra (September 23 — October 22)
It’s rare for you to resort to out-and-out battles, and when you do, they’re usually a strategic manoeuvre. Now, however, the antics or attitude of one particular individual could be so aggravating that you lose your temper. Not only is this inevitable, it will be extremely therapeutic.
Scorpio (October 23 — November 21)
The intuitive side of your nature is so strong you sometimes forget that it influences your perspective in nearly every area of life. While usually those instincts are accurate, with so much going on and so many cross-currents, they could be wrong. Knowing that, proceed slowly.
Sagittarius (November 22 — December 21)
While it’s no surprise you’re impatient with certain individuals who never seem to take things seriously, it’s worth trying to understand where they’re coming from. Annoying as their slow-paced approach to life may be, their perspective on these will help resolve many of your persistent concerns.
Capricorn (December 22 — January 19)
Your idealistic side likes to think that if you believe in something or somebody enough, they’ll be as amazing as you hope they are. Unfortunately, this week’s exceptionally tricky planetary activity is about to disillusion you, and on several fronts. It will also remind you that facts are always more reliable.
Aquarius (January 20 — February 17)
Every once in a while it’s important to stop, take a breath and be quiet for a few moments. With so much going on in your life and around you, this isn’t just a good idea, it’s vital. Yet you allow other things to distract you. Make stopping a priority.
Pisces (February 18 — March 19)
Somebody says they’ve doubts about some of your statements. Be wary of being drawn into convincing anybody that what you’re saying is true. This isn’t about the facts. The individual in question is indulging in a power struggle, one in which you’ll never win them over. Walk away now, while you can.
