ARIES

MAR 21 – APR 20

Now Mercury takes up a new position in your career zone, your work future can seem clearer and calmer – what may have felt like a step back, or sideways, can seem a triumph.

The key is your own attitude, so believe in yourself.  

With Venus making marriage more likely and more lasting, couples find ways to reconnect. 

Single? Mars swaps a safe “P” bet for a sexy “R” challenge.  

TAURUS

12

Everything about you is so surprising this week, and you are ready to take a tricky situation by storm. 

Go with your Uranus instincts, and try not to let less adventurous signs drag you down. 

Words that may have slowed, or stuck, get going again thanks to Mars, and your personal creative store is in demand as Mercury mixes business with pleasure. 

Your unique take on the world, is so sought-after.

GEMINI

MAY 22 – JUNE 21

Unusual dreams plus ability to face secret hopes and start making them happen, can all be the after-effects of Uranus’ reversal.

Your role here is to accept not every path may be straight, or simple – but can still be pretty perfect for you. 

You will know it the moment you see it. 

In love terms, Venus ups surprises and passion prizes, and a request for a selfie plays a part.

CANCER

JUNE 22 – JULY 22

Mercury’s new place in your communication sector is the signal you need that it’s time to speak – even if you still feel unprepared.

At work, others need to know if you have doubts, or questions. 

While at home, letting things lie is leaving too much to chance. 

As for love, your Mars and Venus chart combo give you hot passion underpinned by warm security.

So yes, do take charge.

LEO

JULY 23 – AUG 23

12

As Pluto revisits your work zone for the last time, this is a strong signal of unfinished business. 

Even if it’s difficult to ask, do try to get a clearer picture of your future – personally and financially. 

You are more ready for a big move than you may think.  

Your cash zone is more logical than it’s been for months, but do leave room for a little impulse spending, or lending. 

VIRGO

AUG 24 – SEPT 22

12

You welcome prime planet Mercury into your own sign, and things start falling into place – however muddled you may have felt lately.

Your name can be leaping up a list, and this could lead to a special date by the weekend. 

Trusting yourself to make good money choices is better than letting outside views pull you in all directions.

Unusual travel routes, or destinations, reflect Uranus’ wild side.

LIBRA

SEPT 23 – OCT 23

12

As the host sign of Venus you can be a passion magnet this week, plus you have the drive of Mars to get what and who you want. 

So this is not a time to settle – but to seize the day! 

A mystifying dream you have had more than once starts to make perfect sense with Mercury’s move.

Be mindful of other people’s needs, but do not ignore your own.

SCORPIO

OCT 24 – NOV 22

12

Finding a public home for some private words, or wishes, is Mercury’s mission for you right now. 

So do apply yourself to saying, or writing, from the heart – but with the overview of your mind.

As Uranus is now in retrograde, partnerships can work well even if they seem unlikely, or unusual.

The final say must be down to you.

Mars brings itchy feet – and a fresh sense of purpose.

SAGITTARIUS

NOV 23 – DEC 21

12

Deep inner changes can speed up as Mars gets established in your transformation zone – while Mercury brings you the ability to cut through the noise and find a quiet, simple, solution. 

At work, this can mean turning a team project into a solo goal. 

At home, you can keep repeating a request until it is properly heard.

Your love style is bright and breezy, but underneath are some strong feelings.

CAPRICORN

DEC 22 – JAN 20

12

You can sense the outrageous input of Uranus in your creativity sector, and start getting your true ideas on to the table – instead of feeling you have to modify or minimise them. 

This can break a deadlock at work, or impress some VIP eyes at home. 

If you’re in love, Venus takes one partner’s dream and reworks it for two. 

Single?  Mars sees, and seizes, a perfect passion opportunity.

AQUARIUS

JAN 21 – FEB 18

12

Knowing, and understanding, your deepest self is easier with Mercury now on board – so you can find it simpler to say and show exactly who you are. 

When you see the right thing to do, don’t let other opinions waver your resolve. 

Only you know the total truth. 

Love is moving on, but partners can relish this, and work with it well. 

Single? The One waits near a property display.

PISCES

FEB 19 – MAR 20

12

Now, with Uranus in retrograde, you say it as you see it – and live and love in ways that feel right for the person you are becoming. 

This can mean setting some new, tougher, ground rules in romance – you have the strength for this. 

Mercury moves to your partnership zone and you work so well with others, and see solutions to even the longest-lasting problems.

Luck wears dark blue.
