VIRGO (EARTH)
AUGUST 23-SEPTEMBER 22
The lines of communication continue to be tangled causing you a great deal of frustration and aggravation. This time it could be you causing the problem, so rather than point a finger at others, take a moment to rethink. In the meantime you may discover a strange need for spending money and pampering someone dear to you. You have the funds and the gift will be graciously accepted. HINT: During the middle portion of this week you will discover a new side to a water sign you have known for years. Don’t be hasty in your decision concerning this relationship. Wait a week.
LIBRA (AIR)
SEPTEMBER 23-OCTOBER 23
You feel a change in attitude both towards yourself and those closest to you. For the first time in quite a while you feel more confident. Relationships are accented at this time and not all friendships will withstand the journey. Those that do will last forever.
Financially you are working on a plan which will boost income and ease the stress you have been under over the past few months. A conversation with a sibling will remind you just how strong your connection is.
Soon it will be time to begin making arrangements to meet. HINT: New business opportunities continue to appear and within a week or so you will be ready to make your decision.
SCORPIO (WATER)
OCTOBER 24-NOVEMBER 20
Memories which plagued you in the past are beginning to fade and you can finally begin to see the reason behind what happened.
This is a perfect time for you to turn the page and move on. A mix-up involving a business meeting, a social occasion or a personal appointment cannot be avoided. Take a moment to double check your times and places and make a phone call if you are still unsure. Financially you may be spending a bit more now than you had anticipated. HINT: This is a good week for inviting someone special over for a home-cooked meal.
SAGITTARIUS (FIRE)
NOVEMBER 22-DECEMBER 21
You have been under a great deal of stress lately and have a decision to make. The good news is that you held out this long.
In a week or so things will seem to clear up and you will have the information you need, the contacts you have been searching for and the connections you have wanted in order to expand. Once all is settled, take some time off for yourself. You’ve earned it and you need it. Your innate need for fairness will bring you close to a Libra as you have much in common these days. HINT: Monday and Tuesday are great days for enjoying some one-on-one time with your partner or mate.
CAPRICORN (EARTH)
DECEMBER 22-JANUARY 19
New job, new position, new people… anything and everything is possible.
You are ready for a change and all your years of experience will stand you in good stead. Your connections with another earth sign may be a bit rocky at this time but it is a temporary thing and nothing to worry about. It will soon pass by and all will be back to normal. When dealing with a fire sign get ready for fireworks! This person is ready to break the bonds that bind him and is just simply fun to be with. HINT: Financially all is under control and you have nothing to worry about.
AQUARIUS (AIR)
JANUARY 20-FEBRUARY 18
Money and property which involve other family members may not be moving in the direction you had wished, but for now there simply is nothing you can do to change the situation. Walk away.
In a couple of weeks the sky will clear and that is when you can make your move. In the meantime check your facts and figures. Wednesday and Thursday you will be busy at work so anything that needs to be done should be completed before the end of the week. HINT: Another air sign will help you see that the glass really is half full.
PISCES (WATER)
FEBRUARY 19-MARCH 20
You have done your homework, made your plans and now is the time to convert a dream into a reality. For so long you have put your own needs aside and here is a window of opportunity to do something wonderful for yourself. Grab the brass ring! Financially things are not nearly as bad as you had imagined and soon you will be back on top of the situation. An elderly family member continues to make demands, but nothing you can’t handle.
HINT: You have more time these days and now is the time to meet with some close friends.
ARIES (FIRE)
MARCH 21-APRIL 19
Things are rather confusing at work and you need to do some serious thinking about what you want and need. Although this is not yet the time to move, it is however, the perfect time for collecting information.
Your connection with a Virgo may leave you frustrated and even angry as they can’t seem to see any other point of view but their own these days. Financially you are well aware of your situation and are trying to control any unnecessary spending. Not easy with gifts you have had to buy lately. HINT: When a door closes a window opens and the view is magnificent.
TAURUS (EARTH)
APRIL 20-MAY 20
Frustrations you have been feeling lately concerning your work are beginning to ease up and in the weeks and months to come you will have more of a balanced frame of reference with which to base your decision on what you wish to do about it. Your relationship with your partner or mate is stronger than ever as you each care and guard each other’s back. You have been so busy with social obligations that you are ready for some quiet, peaceful time relaxing at home. HINT: A lack of communication between yourself and another earth sign will begin to ease up in a week or so, so be patient a little longer.
GEMINI (AIR)
MAY 21-JUNE 21
If you aren’t one hundred per cent positive, then don’t do it. This is definitely not the time to rely on luck or a smile and a handshake. Things may not be as they seem and it will be up to you to discover exactly where the missing piece is before you commit to buying the puzzle. The problem isn’t your ability to understand it is your lack of patience to probe. Monday and Tuesday are days for dealing with personal business and the sooner you clear up your desk the better.
HINT: Your partner or mate may be moving at a faster pace than you this week and perhaps doesn’t have as much patience as you need.
CANCER (WATER)
JUNE 22-JULY 22
You have taken back control over your life and are more than a little satisfied by the results. Although you have not yet completed your tasks, you are definitely on the way toward success. Even financially you have managed to stay within your budget and soon will have that extra shot of income you need in order to begin saving again. People love being with you and it will be difficult finding some quiet time this week whereby you can create and then relax. HINT: It’s the little things which make a difference to you and right now you are collecting them one after the other.
LEO (FIRE)
JULY 23-AUGUST 22
For quite some time you have been concerned about money and finances and today you can rest assured that you have managed to come through the summer months just fine. Perhaps not as fine as you would have liked, but much better than you feared. This week you will be busy working on a special project which not only brings you joy but pushes your limits at the same time.
When speaking to a family member living far away start making tentative plans to meet during the coming year. HINT: Time spent with young people is just what you need to put that smile back in your heart.
