TAURUS (Apr. 21-May 20)
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
The Full Moon occurs in your sign this week. If you want more attention paid to you, now would be the time to seek it. Anything you have not properly organised of late could now seem overwhelming as you are running out of time to get necessary things done. Social activity will start to pick up the pace from now to early December.
Something could suddenly come up with another person which seems to have promise where the future is concerned. There is a lot that cannot be seen just yet. You need to give things time, up to mid December to get a better idea of what a person or people are all about. There could be things you need to wind up yourself shortly.
You can get things in order easily and quickly if needs be so that you free yourself up for the opportunities that can arise to enjoy yourself to early December. This will not necessarily mean you can put regular routines on the back burner though. However, you could work out more efficient ways to deal with those, perhaps through utilising technology.
LEO (July 23-August 22)
VIRGO (August 23-Sept.22)
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.22)
It might be necessary to let go of something you thought you could manage but now realise it is too distracting. There will be other things to enjoy from now to mid December. You need to focus on getting a balanced foundation in place to early December which will result in a sense of underlying peace. This can include home and family matters.
You will be provided with the opportunity this week to put forward your own ideas with others in relation to bringing something to a close. This may take until mid February to be able to fully wind up but you should put your energies into getting things organised from now to mid December. You need to be definite about what you want to manage on a regular basis.
If you have been in a position where you have spent more money than intended since early August, from now to early December you need to focus on getting your finances more balanced. It may become apparent that more opportunities than you realised can open up in the future. This may take until mid 2026 to fully develop though.
SCORPIO (Oct.23-Nov21)
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.22-Dec.21)
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.19)
Venus, the planet of balance and harmony moves into your sign where it will stay until 1st December. As Mars moves out to your finance area, you might need to balance up anything impulsive you might have entered into since early August. Getting a manageable structure in place for the long term is something you could realise is a necessity.
Mars moves into your sign this week where it will remain until 15th December. Your energy level should pick up as well as your self confidence. This heralds the beginning of a new 2 year personal cycle. Something least expected could suddenly come up with somebody else. This could lead to things to finalise by mid February but don’t expect total clarity until mid 2026.
Congenial interactions involving a group of people or friends can have an underlying tone of permanent change in some way. This can give you plenty to think about and consider up to mid February. Something might feel a bit of a shock to the system right now. Find quiet time to yourself to mid December so that you are ready to move into a new 2 year cycle then.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.18)
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
ARIES (March 21-April 20)
Absolute clarity about the best way to handle any obligations either expected or that you are prepared to take on can result in a sense that you have the power to pursue what you want. Your priorities might go through a sudden change this week because you can see a more fulfilling goal to pursue. You can sort this out up to mid December.
Somebody else’s expectations can be brought to an end, leaving you in a position to look at the future up to early December with a greater sense of optimism. Even so, this can mean that to establish underlying independence in the long term you will need to consider the obligations you are prepared to take on from now to mid December.
Resist any pressure to be made to feel guilty as this can quickly change to having a clearer view of where things need to head in the future. You will find yourself becoming more optimistic up to mid December. Don’t be tempted to jump into something new too quickly this week. You need to seek out further information.
