NB – The readings below can either be read from your Sun Sign – ie your birthday – or your Ascendant sign, which is calculated form your time of birth. Try also reading it from your Moon Sign, as Hindu astrologers suggest.
Please note that this year is a Leap year, which means that a day has been added to the calendar. so, you may notice that the beginning and end dates in some cases are a day earlier than usual. The Full Moon in Libra, which traditionally heralds Easter, always presents relationship matters in your face, whatever your sign happens to be.
Aries : 21st March – 20th April – This is a good time for you to seriously work on your relationships with your co-workers due to a pile up of planets in Libra, including your ruler Mars. This puts huge emphasis on negotiation, and cooperation in all your relationships – both business and personal – and it will put you in good stead for the future in your profession. It’s hard for Aries to be a good team player but you have to bite the bullet and do it this month, for your own sake. You may find that one of your colleagues seems to have a down on you and you need to use some diplomacy to put it right.
However, you are the stronger one here and will easily overcome any challenges thrown at you. You may be asked to take a course in some practical subject as well, in order that you really understand the deeper workings of your business.
Taurus: 19th April – 20th May – This is a good month for looking at your creative gifts and talents – particularly if you want to do something serious with them. A course might be a good idea, especially if the subjects make your heart sing. While it is important for you to feel secure in all your undertakings, maybe this is the time to start to trust that the Universe has your own best interests at heart. If there is a culture or landscape that you yearn to explore then this is the time to do it – the planets are supporting you in a way that may surprise you. Once you make the decision to move forward, what you want will begin to move towards you and your new life can emerge free of any resistance from your ego fears. The mass of planets, including your ruler Venus, in Libra will add weight to your need for setting careful routines in your life – both for health and fitness and your working life.
Gemini: 20th May – 20th June – The collection of personal planets, including your ruler Mercury, in Libra is really giving your creative juices a real boost this month. So, it’s time to see some theatre, live music and art exhibitions – and get your imagination fired up. It could be a good idea this month to take some kind of evening art class to enable you to develop your interests into skills. The other emphasis is on your domestic life – bringing family matters to the fore, especially in your responsibilities for elderly parents or children. You may find that you are having to arrange sheltered accommodation for them or college housing for the younger ones. If you are wanting to relocate then this is the month to really go through your joint finances with a fine tooth comb and really be realistic about your mortgage limits in order to balance your outgoings.
Cancer: 21st June – 22nd July – The emphasis put into your life by the combined energies of the three personal planets in Libra will really make you look at your domestic situation with very new eyes. This could be a good time to start clearing out all those things that you’ve held onto way past their sell-by date – unless you are an antique dealer, of course. If you are, then maybe a sale would be a good idea. This enables you to de-clutter your life ready for the new people coming along – new neighbours and even a new relationship during this period. If you are already in a stable relationship, then your partner may be planning going on a business trip or studying for promotion in their career. There’s a lot of interesting things going on in your neighbourhood as well that could give you the stimulation that you need right now to fire off your imagination.
Leo: 22nd July – 22nd August – The bunch of planets in your house of communication can really get you burning the midnight oil at your PC. There are lots of opportunities for connecting with many different types of people this month. In other words, get teaching and writing. This is the time for you to take a good hard look at you gifts and talents – the things that really make you heart sing – and begin the process of putting them into a new framework. You need to turn them into a real skill that will make an impact on your financial status. Time to turn the dream into reality. However, you may also find that the council are digging up the roads just outside your house and you have to juggle with the racket outside and your inner drive to complete your tasks. As a result of the disruption outside you may also have to find a new journey to work.
Virgo: 22nd August – 22nd September – See above
Libra: 22nd September – 23rd October – All these planets in your sign really give you masses of energy and a sense that the heavens are singling you out for some good times this month! Your social life will blossom and Mars that will give you the courage to start behaving a little more selfishly than usual, which may surprise some people. If you respond to the pressure to fight your corner in your partnership, you may be surprised at how easily your significant other capitulates and lets you have your way. How’s that for a turn of events? Something may come to light this month that may surprise you about a family member with the result that you can be really helpful towards them in some way. You may also have a strong desire to start a meditation program that will enable you to think through any problems to find a good solution that works in everyone’s favour.
Scorpio 23rd October – 21st November – This is the month for you to turn your back on the demands of others and concentrate on what YOU want. It’s a good period to take a long hard stare at your goals and objectives and what you want them to give you – and you are the only one who can do that. It might mean that you spend time behind the scenes researching and studying for your next great move in life. However, it will put you in the stratosphere if you really commit to it. There will be a lot of writing and communicating as well, because you need to alert the world what you are doing and planning. You may have to seek out people who can help you step up your game – maybe it would be a good idea to join a group that focuses on business matters. You could make some good friends who are similarly ambitious and willing to help you.
Sagittarius 21st November – 21st December – Your career and what it brings you in terms of assets are your main focus this month. You may be wanting to ask for a raise or more responsibilities that will give you greater rewards than you get at present. This is a good month to seriously examine your gifts and talents and see how you can use them to make a better and more interesting life for yourself. You are looking to the future now – it’s your favourite view – and asking yourself where else you could go, what else you could do. Friends are all full of their own ideas and some of them may be just right for you to grab hold of and develop for yourself. No one will mind as you are top of their hit parade this month and they will only be too happy to help you get what you want.
Capricorn 21st December -19th January – This is a month of seriously looking at how you want your life to expand. The trio of planets in Libra fall in your house of career and you are making some favourable friends and allies this month. Promotion could be in the air for you, however, at some cost. In other words, you may have to take exams to test your abilities – or even take time out for formal studies to boost your qualifications. Your focus is more on the middle distance of your objectives and you are confident of any outcomes. There may be communications and transactions coming from afar and even the offer to travel – but for work, not pleasure, which is no problem for you. You may also find that the events in the lives of your in-laws impinge on your life and demand some attention from you.
Aquarius 20th January – 19th February – The major emphasis this month is on marital or partnership finances, resources, savings and income. You may have to extend your mortgage or take out a new insurance plan. You may be required to write up a new business plan that could be more realistic than previously, given the present climate worldwide. You may also be driven to find out more about yourself and your motivations – so this could be a good time to enter some kind of personal development course. If you do, then it will really open up you life and offer you insights that could seriously change your world. You may be invited to take a trip abroad with a group of friends – if you do decide to go, then you will have to do some juggling in order to finance it. However, it could do you the world of good and put you in an optimistic frame of mind towards your future.
Pisces 19th February – 20th March – The emphasis this month is on your relationships – both personal and business. You may decide to legalise an existing partnership or at least put it on a solid footing in some way. This means that your joint finances and resources will also have to be regularised and worked out. This could be quite stressful and you will have to be firm with your partner that everything is above board. You are looking to your future now and wanting more from yourself and your life that the same old same old. It is important that you get clear about your goals and objectives and decide how much effort you are prepared to expend to make them happen. You may have an older friend or colleague who is very willing to mentor you through this process – don’t be afraid to ask – people are often flattered when requested by others and are only too willing to help.
