Aries:   Venus is in your sign making you the zodiac’s favourite for most of the month.  The clouds thicken a little mid-month though when Sun and Saturn oppose each other around 8^th – 10^th.  This represents a stand-off between your position on your money and the money of others or sharing.  (Sharing yourself in an intimate sense may also be a consideration).

Full Moon on 14^th escalates things further but there may be a sudden breakthrough on 16^th when Venus meets Uranus in your sign,  bringing personal awakenings and surprises.  You may be expressing yourself in ways that others don’t expect too…

Your ruling planet Mars changes direction in your 7^th House of relationships and partnerships on 20^th.  This ends two and a half months of fruitless battling.  Hopefully, some newly-found wisdom will help you to proceed with just the right amount of assertiveness this time…

Taurus:   The Sun continues to bring warmth and energy to you for the first three weeks of May and you reclaim your sense of sturdiness and health.

When your ruling planet Venus meets Uranus behind the scenes, around 16^th, it could bring a creative flash of inspiration or the unexpected in your virtual world.  While change isn’t always your strong point, be open to this one.

Good intentions on the work, health and ‘service to others’ front, may have been thwarted for the past couple of months but from 20^th Mars is moving forward and it’s time to put some of that newly-replenished energy to good use.  Consider an exercise routine too.

Saturn urges moderation from 8^th – 10^th to keep your sensual nature in check but with Full Moon in Scorpio, your opposite sign on 14^th, all the brakes are off…

New Moon in Gemini on 28^th marks a new cycle in your finances.  Communicate!

Gemini:   Ideas are buzzing this month as Mercury your ruling planet zips through your sign from 7^th, followed by the Sun bringing a new wave of energy on 21^st.

This will be very welcome as Saturn has been doggedly demanding your time and attention on the work and health front for over 18 months.

A Sun – Saturn opposition around 8^th – 10^th will remind you that there’s still further to go on the well-being front and that you may need the help of your unconscious to make real changes.  Not easy to access alone, the help of a counsellor, therapist or healer could be really helpful.

On 14^th Full Moon in the same areas raises even more emotion in connection to all of this but you are getting closer to the end of this tunnel (late December).

Mars moves forward on 20^th in your romance, children and creativity zone.  This  breaks recent stagnation and gives the green light to delayed projects.

What are you waiting for?  Get going!

Cancer:   Venus glides through your 10^th House of father, career and social status for most of this month, smoothing your path and providing a sense of professional well-being.  If you need favours from people in high places, they will be forthcoming, (as will the unexpected around 16^th).

Sun and Saturn oppose each other from 8^th – 10^th which may not be much fun on the romance, children and creativity front and Full Moon on 14^th highlights emotions regarding these.

Things start to move forwards in your mother and home front though from 20^th (after a two and a half month lull).    Decisions you’ve been mulling over get put into action.  And yes, others will notice…

Leo:   Sun and Saturn oppose each other in your father versus mother and career versus home zones around 8^th – 10^th.  Take this opportunity to look into how to create the best balance for yourself in terms of ambition and emotional needs.  Full Moon on 14^th brings up feelings about security needs too that need acknowledging.

Mars has been dragging communications (and perhaps positive thinking) backwards for the past two and a half months.  But from 20^th it’s full speed ahead.  Attend to neglected correspondence and get more exercise.

Venus glides through your travel and culture zone this month, so get out there and enjoy the world.  Legal matters may fall in your favour too.  Uranus zaps things up around 16^th and you may find yourself bewitched or creatively excited.  Go with it!

Virgo:   New approaches to your father and career zone help you to negotiate recent and not so recent setbacks in these areas. New Moon on 28^th provides fresh impetus here too!

If you’ve been cautiously pondering certain financial moves for a couple of months,  once Mars goes direct on 20^th – pounce!

Saturn and Full Moon around 8^th – 10^th and 14^th respectively, cause you to solemnly dwell on communications with siblings or neighbours.  This isn’t easy and there may not be much you can presently do.  Just stay on a correct path yourself.

Venus smoothes things along in your sharing and intimacy zone.  Time to allow yourself some comfort here!

Libra:   Venus is moving through your opposite sign of relationships and partnerships for most of the month.  This helps you to smooth things and make tactful headway in tricky areas.  And one particularly tricky area may be personal money and income versus ‘the money of others’ …

A Sun – Saturn opposition around 8^th – 10^th polarises these issues which could also include intimacy and the sharing of yourself in a very personal sense too.  Full Moon on 14^th offers little respite and when Venus meets Uranus in your opposite sign on 16^th, surprises may jolt you out of your comfort zone and any unhelpful complacency.

This awakening helps to inform a change of strategy on 20^th when Mars goes direct in your sign.  The two and a half months it’s been back-peddling may have given you a short reprieve but action is now needed and this time it really is up to you!

Don’t avoid decisions.  Move forwards!

Scorpio:   You’ll be looking closely at relationships and partnerships this month, especially around 8^th – 10^th which may prove uncomfortable.  The role you play in them is linked to how you’ve been handling yourself and there are still many things to be resolved and further to go where you’ve already made a start.

Full Moon in your sign on 14^th will push certain items right under your nose.  Examine your immediate responses and make use of these observations in your ongoing quest for personal growth.

Mars which has been dragging you back to re-examine the past for over two months, moves forward on 20^th.  This too provides an opportunity to focus and to be more conscious rather than reactive.

And remember: oblivion isn’t the answer.

Sagittarius:   Communications in relationships and partnerships are fast (and possibly furious) but at least something is happening.

This may come as a welcome distraction from ongoing, unsettling under-currents that get polarised around 8^th – 10^th and with Full Moon on 14^th between your unconscious workings and their impact on your health and work life.  The more you can unravel from your past, the more helpful this will be (and yes the arrow may be pointing to counselling or therapy of some kind).

Around 20^th, you’ll know from realisations within all of this, what to do about friends or groups which have been hovering on hold for over two months.

New Moon on 28th in your opposite sign marks a new phase with partners.  Keep talking.

Capricorn:   Venus enhances your mother and home sector this month which could involve beautifying your palace, entertaining or just feeling good.  And unexpected changes around 16^th could turn out for the better too, so keep an open mind.

The Sun – Saturn opposition from 8^th – 10^th brings up conflicting interests between romance, children and individual creativity versus friends and group interests.  Then Full Moon on 14^th rubs the point home even more…

Mars (which has been a spanner in your father, career and social status zone for the past two and a half months) thankfully moves forward on 20^th and so can you.  The time has come to apply those clever strategies you’ve been mulling over.

New Moon on 28^th augurs a new trend in joint finances and sharing.  Be open to discussion.

Aquarius:   Communications are flowing this month as Venus charms your tongue and pen.  Your mind is tuned to feel-good and it’s infectious.

Home is flourishing too, although demands from the world might prevent you from luxuriating there (or even being there much at all) especially around 8^th – 10^th.  Full Moon on 14^th highlights the conflicting demands of this axis.  Look for future ways to incorporate well-being into your professional life or working more from home.

Mars moves things forwards in your travel, legal and culture zone on 20^th and your ruling planet Uranus brings new ideas or exciting communications around 16^th.

New Moon on 28^th marks a new cycle in your romance, children and creativity zone.  Be aware of your many options…

Pisces:   Your travel, legal and cultural zones may feel like heavy weather at times but Venus in your finance zone offers some material comfort.  Your good ideas and communication skills help to save the day too.

After two and a half months of frustrations with joint funds and sharing (including intimacy), Mars starts to move forwards once again on 20^th which can only be good news.  If you’ve done your inner homework, you should now know how to get and offer co-operation better and move towards a fairer solution.

New Moon on 28^th brings a fresh new era to your mother and home sector.  Could it be time for a spring clean, decorating, nurturing yourself in new ways or entertaining others?   And even a new reputation as host or hostess with the mostest perhaps?

Aries:   The eclipse on 3^rd in your sharing and intimacy zone, brings realisations, possibly about how open or guarded you are regarding sharing, joint funds, intimacy and the transformational processes of life.  This new awareness is urging you to take a less defended and more fluid position.  Venus gliding through your 10^th House for most of the month, eases career progression.  Observe and be aware of power dynamics mid-month though and remain squeaky clean and ethical, however others choose to behave.  Mars your ruling planet is soldiering away in your 6^th House of work, health zone and service to others.  Tackle any health matters you’ve been avoiding and organise and attend to details and daily systems.  You’ll make more progress if you make time to help others too.

Taurus:   An emotional month, starting with a solar eclipse and New Moon in your opposite sign of relationships and partnerships, on 3^rd.  This offers fresh understanding and insight.  It’s time to take stock and look at what needs to be left behind and what needs to be developed and taken further (and this could be certain relationships and people).  Communications get easier regarding all of this from 10^th too.  Mid-month your whole philosophy on relationships will be presented to you.  And Full Moon in your own sign on 17^th raises many feelings of your own to look at.  They deserve your full attention.  Give it!

Gemini:   Solar eclipse and New Moon on 3^rd marks the beginning of a six-month period of yet further realisations regarding your work and health.  These new insights should be acted on.  Venus flows through your intimacy zone from 7^th, encouraging you to share more of yourself.  And things could become intense mid-month, when it encounters Pluto.  Mars continues to march through your 4^th House of mother and home all month, scrutinising details.  Get those jobs done (you know which ones), put new systems in place and work on your personal development while the wind’s behind you!

Cancer:   Children, creativity or romance have been on your agenda for some months now and New Moon, along with a solar eclipse on 3^rd opens up new opportunities for self expression.  Venus smoothes and softens relationships and partnerships from 5^th (apart from an intense bubble mid-month).  Mars in your 3^rd House all month urges you to analyse and address communications regarding trading, siblings or neighbours.  Creative thinking improves from 10^th, opening up new opportunities for self-expression.  Apply those ideas!

Leo:   Further seismic shifts as the solar eclipse on 3^rd occupies your mother and home sector.  More insights will be illuminating your path during the next six months.  We spring into the world from the home.  So whatever we create in this sphere to contain and support ourselves (the physical home and emotional conditions within) are hugely important both to our wellbeing and progression in the world.  Communications and thinking productively about all of this may have been difficult for the past three weeks but improve after Mercury’s turnaround on 10^th.  Venus softens relations with colleagues and daily companions from 5^th.  And tending yourself on a physical level and even routine tasks can be a source of comfort this month.  Your status gets highlighted by Full Moon on 17^th and Mars offers entrepreneurial drive all month to analyse security needs and source new incomes.

Virgo:   A month to assert yourself where you often loathe to tread.  Mars is pushing you forward into the fray and about time too!  Be bold.  Your sharp analytical skills enable you to be surgically incisive when making assessments.   Observe new insights and understanding released by the solar eclipse and New Moon from 3^rd and let them be heard after 10^th.  The arenas in question are communications, your way of thinking, writing, trading, siblings and neighbours.  This is no time for mincing words.  Don’t choose depression over expression.  Say it how it is!

Libra:   Money, security, values and self-esteem have been hot potatoes for over a year now but New Moon and solar eclipse on 3^rd offers fresh perspective on how all of these can be approached.  New insights need to be integrated into the picture over the next six months.  They may not be initially welcome but be glad of them.  Mercury’s forward movement on 10^th makes dialogue easier here too, including difficult subjects which need broaching.  Mars is also stirring up your unconscious, bringing back matters previously swept under the carpet.  Acknowledge and attend to these too.  Venus is gracing your home for most of the month.  Beautify it, enjoy and entertain.  Acts of kindness are never wasted.

Scorpio:  More challenges and opportunities this month.  If you thought you had more or less got a handle on your identity and how it should now be expressed, 3^rd November’s New Moon and solar eclipse in your sign may prove you wrong.  They usher in a six-month period of new realisations, as previously unaccessible material from your unconscious gets released to guide you.  Your communications review completes on 10^th too and you can start to put new decisions in place.  Apart from intense communications mid-month, you’ll find gentle words work best to clear your path: but clear it you must.  Intense situations could occur with siblings or neighbours mid-month and if they do, apply fair solutions.  Full Moon in your opposite sign on 17^th may involve you in having to listen to others.  Do so willingly.  We can learn from everyone.

Sagittarius:   The solar eclipse and New Moon in your 12^th House of the unconscious, releases a big chunk of important material that has been waiting for you to be ready for it.  The new awareness that comes with it, over the next six months, needs to be applied and put into action.  Your mind also starts working for you rather than against you with Mercury’s change of direction on 10^th.  Venus helps finances for most of the month, with a possible hiccup around 15^th – 16^th when spending fever should be resisted…  Meanwhile, Mars is fuelling your ambitions all month.  Analyse the situation and what needs to be done on the career front.  Assert yourself and improve whatever needs attention.

Capricorn:   Charmer of the month goes to you as Venus sails through your sign from 5^th.  And watch reactions as your charisma heightens even more around 15^th – 16^th!  Romance, children and creativity are highlighted too by Full Moon on 17^th.  The only tricky area is your 11^th House (of friends, groups, community, organisations and humanitarian ideals) which has been sitting on your agenda for over a year now.  If you felt you had more or less got it sussed, the solar eclipse and New Moon on 3^rd releases subterranean aspects (whether your own or others’) which will take you back to the drawing board over the next six months.  New realisations have to be included in your reckoning.  Wait until after 10^th to unveil your master plan.

Aquarius:   New awareness of unconscious dynamics that have been impacting your approach towards father, career and social status, becomes available with the solar eclipse and New Moon on 3^rd.  This new understanding should be applied over the next six months and inform how you move forwards.  Mercury’s change of direction on 10^th facilitates change here too.  Neptune going direct on 13^th helps to make finances clearer.  Your confidence takes a turn for the better too.  Full Moon on 17^th in your mother and home brings up emotions in these areas and perhaps your needs for nurturing.  Don’t edit them out.

Pisces:   There are opportunities to understand other cultures better this month and that includes workplace cultures too.  Solar eclipse and New Moon on 3^rd in your travel, education. legal and philosophy zone, present aspects of yourself that you weren’t previously aware of.  This may not be comfortable but it is helpful and may explain knee-jerk approaches you may have taken in the past.  Mercury moving direct on 10^th helps too.  Neptune’s forward direction in your sign on 13^th also gives a clearer sense of self and purpose.  If things seem to get too heated from Mars in your partnership zone, take comfort in friends, groups and your communities.

Aries:   Cultural and legal matters go well from 7^th (as do dealings with in-laws) and agreements can be reached.  The Sun lights up relationships and partnerships till 23^rd and Full Moon in your sign on 18^th might make it more difficult to see other people’s point of view…  Your 8^th House of ‘sharing’ is the main focus though and will demand most of your attention.  This includes resources and intimacy and you will be challenged to think beyond yourself.  Energy abounds on the work and health front from 15^th.  Tackle whatever needs attention but be sure not to bully colleagues or those in your daily life.  Aim to better your best, not others!

Taurus:   New Moon on 5^th in your 6^th House of work, health and service to others, is the perfect day for work resolutions and to start a new regime and put health improvement measures in place.  Your ruling planet Venus then attracts the money of others or suitors seeking intimacy from 7^th onwards (not a bad start to the month!).  Consider them presents from life.  But the big focus this month is relationships and partnerships which will require a lot of thought, reflection and honesty on your part (with others and yourself).  If the Mars-Neptune opposition mid-month blurs the boundaries between romance and friendship, just surf the wave.  Mercury goes retrograde on 21^st so say your piece before then.

Gemini:   New openings in romance, children or creativity coincide with New Moon on 5^th and the Sun maintains this glow till 23^rd.  But the main focus, for a second month is work, health and service to others.  There’s still more to look at and work through.  Don’t stop until your daily routine provides total well-being.  Relationships and partnerships are looking good from 7^th and you’ll have energy to tackle things at home, mid-month onwards.  Strange as it may seem, the way to achieve career and status ideals is through getting things ‘right’ at home and maybe some personal development.

Cancer:   New Moon on 5^th marks a new cycle in your mother and home front which remains active till 23^rd.  As this area is one of your fortes, you’ll know just what New Lunar Year’s Resolutions to make.  Work, relationships with colleagues and health are glowing from 7^th too, just so long as you don’t over-indulge.  Full Moon in your father, career and social status zone on 18^th can make emotions very public but creative ideas and communications you have around 17^th – 21^st help to reinforce your sense of well-being and to think about yourself in creative new ways.  Your main concern this month though is romance, children and creativity.  Get important communications in these areas out of the way before 21^st and then enjoy the Sun lightening things up from 23^rd.  You’ll be glad of it…

Leo:   Energy abounds during the first half of the month while Mars zaps through your sign.  Then after 15^th your energies turn to money, income and security which you’ll pursue with your full creative force and vigour.  Changes you make or new ways of thinking about ‘home’ from 17^th – 21^st can increase wellbeing.  The internet might even play a role here too.  Home and nurturing is still the big topic.  From 23^rd – 26^th search for ideal solutions to connect home and sharing.  Other people’s resources, sharing yours and intimacy could all be included.  Full Moon on 18^th calls for pioneering beliefs, including self-belief.  Step up to that call.

Virgo:   When Mars hits your sign on 15^th, you’ll find energy to plough through whatever needs doing and courage to tackle tasks or people that normally look too daunting.  Communications, siblings or neighbours continue to be the main focus for yet another month.  We can’t change other people but we can change how we think about things.  From 17^th – 21^st ideas abound regarding friends, groups, organisations and humanitarian ideals.  Choose the best ones and apply them.  Then from 23^rd – 26^th apply your creative thinking and communication skills to help with partnerships.  Home’s looking lovely from 7^th.  Share it with others.

Libra:   You’re full of love and light as the Sun illuminates your sign till 23^rd and New Moon in your sign on 5^tth marks a personal new beginning too.  Money possessions security and values continue to be the main focus though.  Your mind is full of positivity and working for you from 17^th – 21^st.  Be sure to make a note of good money-making ideas and have discussions with people who can help your career or status.  23^rd – 26^th, tune into colleagues.  They can help here too.  Sign anything important before 21^st!

Scorpio:   Scorpios, the big focus this month continues to be yourself.  Who you truly are now and how and where that should be expressed.  New Moon on 5^th puts you in tune with yourself which is exactly what you need to do to work out the way forward.  Be sure to express yourself from 17^th – 21^st and be open to whatever philosophical and belief systems have to offer.  Creativity will help from 23^rd – 26^th but soul searching will provide the answer, which lies within.  Don’t shrink away from it!

Sagittarius:   You’re charmer of the month from 7^th when Venus enters your sign.  This could be helpful in your new push forward re father, career and social status from 15^th.  Full Moon on 18^th in your children, romance and creativity zone is buoyant and livens things up too.  Despite this bright and breezy wave, your unconscious hasn’t finished with you yet and is demanding that you look at something important in more depth again.  Forgotten or buried memories from the past may emerge and demand to be dealt with or known truths that you’ve been suppressing.  Creativity can help you to get a handle on it.  Dive in!

Capricorn:   A new cycle begins on 5^th with New Moon in your father, career and social status zone and the Sun extends this sense of ‘feel-good’ right through to 23^rd.  But on a more serious note, friends, groups, community and organisations continue to be the big challenge.  Make sure important discussions and signatures take place before 21^st.  Good ideas abound from 17^th – 21^st which link partnerships and ideals.  Then applying your imagination is the best strategy.  Full Moon raises the emotional temperature at home on 23^rd.  Keep things reasonable!

Aquarius:   The first three weeks of October are good for travel, in-laws, legal matters and dealings with other cultures.  And Mars keeps things heated up in relationships and partnerships till 15^th.  Then passions or joint funds demand your attention.  Career-related discussions from 17^th – 21^st improve your sense of well-being and money may flow in from 23^rd – 26^th.  The main focus though continues to be father, career and social status.  Even more reflection is needed here and something has to be rethought in some way.  Action comes next month!

Pisces:   Your whole philosophy and belief system, travel, in-laws or legal matters occupy you for yet another month and the more creative you can be about this from 17^th – 21^st, the better.  From 15^th, Mars in your opposite sign of relationships and partnerships may make you (or them) rather sharp, if not more aggressive.  Use this energy to iron out differences; or if single, to pursue your options.  Beliefs or culturally different ways of looking at things can guide you closer to your ideal self.  Those in authority smile on you from 7^th.  If favours are needed, ask away.

Aries:   Venus and then Mercury liven up relationships and partnerships and Sun moving into your opposite sign on 22^nd gives even more opportunities to relate well.  Mars gives you energy to pursue romance, children and creativity too.  New Moon on 5^th in work, health and service to others, heralds a fresh start and a perfect time to put good habits in place.  Be alert to what can be learnt around 18^th to 20^th.  This concerns intensely personal matters.  How you share resources and yourself intimately can bring transformation.  ‘The money of others’ could feature here too.  Be honest with yourself and others.  Important things can be turned around.

Taurus:   You’re ready for action at home this month as Mars in Leo sweeps clean.  Clear hoarded areas and make room for comfortable, creative space.  Do some entertaining too.  And if others find your tolerance levels lower than usual – too bad!  New Moon on 5^th favours romance, children and creativity.  The most significant event this month though, is when Venus meets Saturn in your 7^th House of relationships and partnerships around 18^th – 20^th.  The North Node of the Moon is mid-point too, implying a mission or something important to your life direction is trying to take place.  This could involve business or intimate partnerships.  Agreements could be cemented.  Or long-burning embers could become steady flames, fanned by the Full Moon (coming from your 11^th House of friendships, groups and humanitarian ideals on 18^th/19^th).  Pluto awaits on the other side to lead you forward to new understanding.  Be open.

Gemini:   Venus warms up your 5^th House of romance, children and creativity up to 11^th, then Mercury picks up the baton and hands it to the Sun on 22^nd, keeping things lively.  New Moon in your mother and home zone augurs a fresh start on 5^th too. Venus’s meeting with Saturn in your 6^th House around 18^th – 20^th brings opportunities.  These could include learning to relate more constructively at work and understanding how your daily activities and habits impact your health.  The larger picture however raises the question of the whole direction you’re going in re work.  What should you truly be doing?  Where do you need to direct your energies?  On some level you know the answer.  Just do it!

Cancer:   Mars in your 2^nd House of security revs up your entrepreneurial spirit to look for new sources of income and Cancerians are more canny than most when it comes to gathering money…  Romance, children and creativity get more serious too around 18^th – 20^th.  Venus and Saturn along with the North Node of the Moon move things onto a more concrete basis.  This could involve an actual product from your creativity, more responsibility connected to children or the transition of a romance from a love affair to partnership.  This involves growth and a development in your direction in life.  Don’t resist change.  Life is moving forward!

Leo:   Mars in your sign zaps up your energy levels and dynamism all month.  And finances look sweet too.  The big emphasis though centres on changes at home.  Around 18^th – 20^th Venus and Saturn meet in your 4^th House of mother and home, roots and foundations.  How well does your home-life support you?  How well are you looking after yourself emotionally?  Your relationship with your mother or your early years have some bearing on all of this.  Don’t be afraid to look at whatever might be or might have been unhelpful.  Here is an opportunity to put healthier patterns in place.  Helpful courses of action could include: a review of your food shopping list, unearthing clarity from past events in your life, improving emotional conditions at home (pets are a possibility) and allowing Pluto to move things forwards.  Counselling or therapy could be helpful in your brave explorations too.

Virgo:   New Moon in your sign on 5^th marks a personal new beginning and finances are flowing all month, although it may not be entirely clear in which direction…  Behind the scenes life is very active too (be that your imagination, compassion, creativity, charitable deeds or spirituality).  The big news though is Venus’s meeting with Saturn in your 3^rd House of communications, trading, siblings and neighbours, around 18^th – 20^th.  Agreements, deals, lessons and understanding reach some kind of culmination which alters your direction in life in some way.  Full Moon in your opposite sign during this time, adds an emotional roller-coaster element too.  Enjoy the ride and allow new ideas in!

Libra:   Venus continues to heighten your charisma till 11^th and Mercury makes you a deft communicator all month.  Mars in your 11^th House means you both find and generate energy re. friends, groups, community and possibly even politics!  You may not be feeling as diplomatic as usual.  Up to you whether you decide to wear your velvet glove or not…  The big crunch comes around 18^th – 20^th  though when your ruling planet Venus meets Saturn and the North Node of the Moon around the same time as Full Moon and Pluto moving direct!  What a combination!  They are gathering in your 2^nd House of money, possessions, security, values and self-esteem and in your 10^th House of father, career and status.  Your direction in life is in motion, as is your understanding.  Embrace transformation!

Scorpio:   Venus entering your sign on 11^th makes you the charmer of the zodiac for one whole month!  This brings comfort and its meeting with Saturn around 18^th – 20^th including the North Node of the Moon, makes you feel like part of the world’s unfolding, almost as if your fate is moving with world events!  More importantly, it makes movement possible where you have felt stuck for almost a year.  Mars in your 10^th House of father, career and status, handily lends energy to press forward with your ambitions.  Communications improve after 20^th as does your outlook, when Pluto your ruling planet starts to move forward.  Move with it and be honest with everyone.

Sagittarius:   New Moon on 5^th marks a fresh start in career or your status in some way.  It’s unpretentious, so hang onto that honesty and purity of vision.  Mars urges you to search for the truth all month and the chances are you’ll find it.  Unconscious cogs and wheels stop grinding and start flowing around 18^th – 20^th when Venus meets Saturn in your 12^th House.  The North Node of the Moon is there too which allows you to tune into the collective unconscious!  If this sounds a bit too overwhelming, it just means your antennae are finely tuned to whatever is needed in the world right now.  Respond to your intuitions, they can be helpful to the bigger, collective picture.  Your finances or value systems start to move forwards on 20^th.  Phew!

Capricorn:   Mars in your 8^th House of intimacy and joint funds, all month, fires your determination to make headway in these areas.  (But bear in my mind that head-on attack may not produce the best results… ).  From 11^th, pleasure can be found through friends, groups, community and humanitarian ideals.  Pay special attention to these areas around 18^th – 20^th.  Something important here should be learnt and if understood, Pluto’s change of direction in your sign on 20^th allows you to move forward.  You’ve been on hold for four months.  Now it’s time to apply yourself.  (Think ‘humanitarian’!)

Aquarius:   Mars in your 7^th House of relationships and partnerships heats things up all month.  But whether this results in passion, conflict or both, remains to be seen…  Venus approaches Saturn around 18^th – 20^th, softening hardships connected to father, career and social status.  Your mission or direction in life is on the move and you are ready to embrace it.  Your unconscious shifts on 20^th too.  Forgive where necessary, accept help from those with influence and move forwards.  Deep wells of creativity get released as a side-product.  Be sure to find exciting new outlets for them!

Pisces:   New Moon in your relationships and partnerships zone on 5^th marks a fresh new cycle and Full Moon in your own sign on 18^th/19^th reminds you what an emotional creature you are!  Mars heats up your 6^th House of work, health and service to others all month.  At best, this involves putting healthy structures in place and getting through your to-do list.  (At worst, crashing into colleagues, daily companions and over-doing things).  Aim for the first options.  Lots of activity in your 9^th House of travel and law.  Important things can be learnt from other cultures around 18^th – 20^th.  Be open to new understanding.  Pluto goes direct on 20^th, bringing movement to ‘stuck’ areas: friends, community and ideals.  Go with this forward movement!

Aries:   Communications are forthright (if not heated) this month as Mars your ruling planet raises mental energy.  Siblings, neighbours, trades people and the general public might get more of your opinion than they bargained for…  And Full Moon on 23^rd raises emotions around father issues, career or social status.  But the main focus of the month is in your 4^th House of mother and home.  This is a good month for domestic harmony.  Contact mother figures, decorate or beautify your home and entertain.  Jupiter also glides into this area on 26^th for one whole year.  Home could become bigger, overseas, more philosophical or more nurturing over the next twelve months!

Taurus:   You’re active on the money-making front this month and a new strand of income could come into view with the New Moon on 8^th.  But communications is your main focus.  If charm is needed to smooth negotiations, you’re a winner but complete them before the last four days of the month.  You may think you’re at your most persuasive right now but this is just a taste of more to come.  Jupiter takes residence in your 3^rd House of communications for a year, starting on 26^th.  This could expand the mind, widen your channels of communication, help with trading and keep your thinking buoyant.  Your products, ideas and words, spoken or written, could start to reach a much wider audience…

Gemini:   Push to get as much as possible done, whatever it is this month, while Mars on your side.  And adept multi-tasker that you are, that could be a lot of action!  The main focus though, is money and possessions.  Your silver tongue could generate some extra income and when Jupiter moves into your 2^nd House of money and possessions on 26^th, it could be the beginning of a 12 month block when you capitalise on past efforts and achieve some security.  New Moon in your sign on 8^th brings new hope too!

Cancer:   All the balls are in your court this month, as you charm, delight and dazzle us all.  Mercury and Venus, followed by the Sun are all batting on your team and then Jupiter enters your sign on 26^th and stays till July next year.  Your unconscious is still busy this month and there could be intense emotions in relationships and partnerships too with Full Moon on 23^rd in your opposite sign.  But don’t just sit around and wait for opportunities.  Carve some out yourself.  That Jupiter wind will be behind you for one whole year!

Leo:   You have lots of energy to push things forward on the collective front this month but your most active area is ‘behind the scenes’ in your 12^th House.  This includes your dreams, unconscious, spirituality, healing, self-talk, internet activity and compassion for those less fortunate.  All go smoothly up to 26^th and you communicate well – be that through words or silently tuning in.  Then Jupiter, the biggest boy on the block, moves into these same areas for a year, starting on 26^th.  Growth, expansion and opportunities are just waiting for you to say ‘Yes’.  Say it!

Virgo:   New Moon on 8^th in your father, career or social status zone brings a fresh start on 8^th and Mars is urging you to push forward with your ambitions all this month.   Full Moon on 23^rd raises emotion connected to romance, children and creativity too.  But the big new area for development is your 11^th House of friends, groups, teams, community, organisations and humanitarian ideals.  You are hitting just the right note in your communications with them but make time to enjoy all the pleasures they have to offer this month too.  And be prepared for a year of expansion in these areas starting 26^th, when Jupiter moves in for a whole year!

Libra:   New Moon on 8^th breathes fresh wind into your sails on the travel, study, in-laws and legal front this month and Mars provides the energy to sustain it right through the month.  But the big new focus is in your 10^th House of father, career and social status.  You can charm the birds from the trees this month, including big influential ones who can help your career!  Finalise as much as you can by 26^th and then prepare for a year of growth and opportunities ahead!

Scorpio:   Mars in your ‘shared area’ this month could either manifest as friction or passion.  Whichever it is, you will be determined to pursue things.  Meanwhile, there are tidings of great joy on the travel, in-laws, legal and study front.  Venus and Mercury ensure harmony rules this month and then Jupiter moves in for a year from 26^th.  Your outlook, world view and cultural understanding are all about to expand!  Let them!

Sagittarius:   Assertiveness or even aggression may turn up in your relationship and partnership zone this month, with Mars stirring and heating things up.  But the main focus moves to your ‘shared area’ where things flow smoothly with Mercury and Venus.  You may benefit from ‘the money of others’ in some way this month.  And the good news is – thanks to Jupiter your ruling planet, from 26^th this could be happening on an even bigger scale for a whole year!

Capricorn:   You have lots of energy to apply to work, health, service to others and daily life but this month.  But something else is going on too.  Mercury and Venus are creating a gentle start to your new area of expansion – relationships and partnerships.  Communications and understanding go well until 26^th and then there is a change of gear.  Jupiter moves into this area for a year, insisting on growth.  Full Moon in your sign on 23^rd is an opportunity for emotional self-expression.  Use it.

Aquarius:   You have lots of creative energy this month, some of which could turn towards love affairs and children.  New Moon on 8^th in this area could bring the breath of fresh air you’ve been hoping for.  But work, health and service to others is the new highlight, as Mercury and Venus help everything to run smoothly.  Jupiter moves here too on 26^th and stays until July next year, bringing growth, expansion and opportunities!

Pisces:   You find second wind with New Moon on 8^th and have energy to push things forward all month on the home front.  This is due to firey Mars which should be directed.  It’s good for blitzing, so get something done or it could apply itself to stirring up discontent or havoc at home.  Your new active zone however, is your 5^th House of love affairs, children and creativity.  They flow easily this month and then become areas for real growth, expansion and opportunity, as Jupiter glides in on 26^th for a one-year stay!

May 2013

A Solar Eclipse on May 10^th belongs to the ‘15 South’ cycle of eclipses (which started in 1472 and completes in 2716!).  Reoccuring every 18 -19 years, this cycle is about a release of tension and clearing the air…

So what will this mean for us all?                                                                                                                                          Read the horoscope below for your Sun sign and for your Ascendant sign if you know it.

Aries:   The emphasis this month centres on your 2^nd House of money, possessions, earnings, security and values.  You have massive energy to apply but the question is how to apply it?  The eclipse on 10^th suggests it may be time for a new approach.  Releasing your concerns would be a good start.  Vision can then lead the way.  Your ruling planet Mars is right behind you and will provide the grit to establish a new productive framework.  If need be, you can even pull the wool over critical eyes… but why would you want to do that?

Taurus:   Your irresistible charm continues at its peak until 9^th  .  Then money flows your way with ease, for the rest of the month.  New Moon and Solar Eclipse in your sign on 10^th is an important point in your recent self-searching.  Saturn has been a sobering task master since October but it can be helpful to face our mortality from time to time and gain a wider perspective of where we are in our lives.  Things should start to crystalise or fall into place right now.  The treasure to gather from this internal review could be a new sense of self-awareness or self-expression.  Listen carefully to your internal voice – the positive, helpful one!

Gemini:   Once Venus enters your sign on 9^th you will be able to en-trance whoever you wish and even sell your magic carpet to hard-nosed sceptics!  But there’s a danger that the New Moon and Solar Eclipse on the 10^th might get missed altogether, if you only focus on practising your charms.  This eclipse falls in your 12^th House of behind the scenes matters.  Good for creative productivity or a solid, new pledge to attend to your inner-workings or perhaps the needs of others less fortunate.  From mid-month, Mercury gives you the gift of the gab (yes, even more than usual!) and then the Sun glides into Gemini on 20^th, restoring your health and well-being.  If planning a party, aim for 25^th – 28^th!

Cancer:   Loads of action on the friends, groups and collective front and things may come to a head with the Solar Eclipse and New Moon on 10^th.  Let your associates know how you feel and then be prepared to put in the slog to make your vision, a reality.  It’s a busy time behind the scenes later in the month and you can push internet projects forward and acts of kindness.  Have a look at self-talk too!  Full Moon on 25^th in your 6^th House, raises the emotional temperature in work, health and service to others.  Do your best to be objective…

Leo:   Authorities are smiling upon you till 9^th and then Venus sweetens friendships, group and collective activities.  New Moon and the Solar Eclipse on 10^th also mark an important new phase in your father, career and status zone.  It’s time to go public and release whatever you’ve been storing up.  Mars is also on hand to provide the energy and determination to push your new conclusions or project forward.  Get out there Leos and be seen in the world!  Friends, teams and the communities you are a part of provide joy and entertainment, especially towards the end of the month.  Just what you needed!

Virgo:   Travel, different cultures and legal or philosophical matters occupy you during the first half of the month and then New Moon and Solar Eclipse on 10^th could mark a meaningful release and a change in your outlook.  The truth is such a subjective thing and you don’t have to be oppressed by other people’s versions of it.  Adopt your own!  Be sure too to make sure your beliefs are enabling and self-sustaining.  Improvements in your father, career and social status zone fill the second half of the month.  People in authority will help you.  Your natural modesty is always lovely but it’s fine to ask!  .

Libra:   What’s going on with joint finance and sharing?  It all starts the month smoothly but then the Solar Eclipse and New Moon on 10^th bring things to a head.  It’s time to release whatever’s been pent up: be that passions or home truths about sharing, debts or inheritances.  Having embarked upon this, Mars in Taurus provides the sticking power and determination to see things through.  A broader perspective shows up in the second half of the month as travel, philosophical and legal matters help to open up your thinking.  In-laws could feature too.  Keep the bigger picture in mind as much as you can.

Scorpio:   Relationships and partnerships go smoothly up to 9^th and then the Solar Eclipse and New Moon on 10^th release pent up energy and possibly a home truth.  This is an opportunity to see YOURSELF more clearly, against the backdrop of relationships and partnerships.  This opportunity could be lost, if you just keep blaming others (the easy path of self-avoidance) so take a deep breath and look deeply at yourself and how you’ve been operating in this area.  Your ‘shared area’ then takes on importance.  Think about and discuss how you share your resources and yourself on a most personal level.  (Generosity is usually a good policy!)

Sagittarius:   Work and relationships with colleagues and people in your daily life go smoothly till 9^th but then the Solar Eclipse and New Moon takes things deeper.  Your well-being, especially the physical aspect of it, is demanding some attention and recognition and this could be the beginning of something that is going to form a new structure in your life.  You’re not alone.  Mars will provide the determination and fortitude to establish new patterns.  Relationships and partnerships then take the lead.  Discuss and negotiate your position.  Planets lend a kindly light here towards the end of the month and Full Moon in your sign on 25^th removes any self-imposed brakes!

Capricorn:   Romance, children and creativity start the month off as a breeze but then the New Moon and Solar Eclipse on 10^th add insight and the need for reflection.  Although collective demands on you may have been high since October, they need to be balanced by an equally important joy: individual creativity.  Whether this is expressed through dealings with children, romance, financial speculation or the arts doesn’t matter.  But express it you must!  This eclipse can mark the beginning of a positive on-going outlet for your energies.  Then work, health and service to others occupies you for the rest of the month, bringing pleasure from 26^th to 28^th.  Tend yourself physically too.  Full Moon on 25^th adds emotional impact to what’s going on behind the scenes and possibly to dreams too.  Slide the veil to one side – to see what your unconscious is trying to tell you…

Aquarius:   Lots of activity in your mother and home area during the first half of the month, gathers extra momentum with the Solar Eclipse and New Moon on 10^th.  The 4^th House is to do with your roots and foundations as well as the physical home (be that a room, a building or the planet you live on).  It also covers how we nurture ourselves (and possibly others too).  This Taurus eclipse is a call to establish a solid and perhaps physical, new way forward.  Self-discovery could play a part here in terms of your basic make-up and how you meet your fundamental needs.  The emphasis then shifts to romance, children and creativity towards the end of the month with Venus and Jupiter creating lots of fun from 26^th to 28^th – yeah!

Pisces:   Communications are full and flowing till 9^th and then New Moon and Solar Eclipse in your 3^rd House of thoughts, words, ideas, short journeys and trading, put forward a new stand.  This could take the form of a new idea crystalising or an important new ‘dialogue’ perhaps with a neighbour or sibling.  Or perhaps it could be a new form of physical movement that helps to establish a steadier frame of mind.  Full Moon in your father, career and status zone on 25^th raises the thermometer but Venus and Jupiter conspire to end the month with a happy glow at home.  If entertaining, choose 25^th to 28^th!

April 2013

It’s a firey start to the month.  A whole load of planets and also the New Moon on 10^th are all in Aries, explaining the hot energy that is zapping us all.  Then mid-month, Venus in Taurus starts to gently ground us and bring us back to our senses: all five of them!

So what will this mean for you?  Read you Sun Sign below and your Ascendant Sign if you know it.

Aries:   This time of year reminds you of yourself – bursting with energy and full of potential.  Charm is yours too till 15^th which could help to smooth any feathers you ruffle as you forge ahead.  But even then, Mercury freshly in your sign, grants you a silver tongue for the remainder of the month too.  New Moon in your sign on 10^th reinforces you and heightens your feel for new directions and Mars your ruling planet, sparks ignition, drive and action.  Money looks good second half of the month and from 20^th you’ll have tons of energy to pursue it, or other values…

Taurus:   So much activity behind the scenes can be exhausting but this offers opportunity for change – just embrace it!  Dreams and the internet can be sources of revelation too.  Venus endows your natural charms from 15^th and once Sun and Mars have entered your sign by 20^th you are fully restored and nothing short of magnificent!  Full Moon in your opposite sign on 25^th magnetises.  And you could be the big attraction or the iron filing.  Things can be learnt either way…

Gemini:   Friends, groups and collectives start the month as rich and creative areas – good for launching group projects and forming or joining new groups.  New Moon on 10^th brings a fresh start here too and Mercury provides new ideas and benefits from straightforward communication.  Gemini’s don’t always see the need for this, but out of curiosity, why not give it a try?  Then the focus moves to your unconscious and activity behind the scenes.  Could it be a secret love?  Or a work of art?  Full Moon on 25^th raises the emotional temperature re. work and health.  Keep it sane!

Cancer:   Tons of activity and creative ideas are heralded in your father, career and social status zone.  And the New Moon on 10^th offers a brand new start.  Do you have a project in mind?  There’s energy galore to push forwards and electrifying ideas or startling communications around 20^th.  Full Moon on 25^th heightens the emotional charge in romance, children and creativity.  And friends, groups and community go very well from 15^th.  Nurture collective creativity and take comfort in the wonder of fellow human beings!

Leo:   A new wave is on the horizon and other cultures, travel, publishing, law or in-laws could herald exactly the clean sweep you’ve been looking for.  A new philosophy could arise too around New Moon on 10^th which provides direction.  (Might be an idea to have your passport on the ready!)  Father, career or social status features mid-month onwards.  Creativity here brings benefits too.  People with influence will grant favours.  It isn’t demeaning to request them.  Just ask!

Virgo:   A line-up of planets and New Moon on 10^th mark a fresh trend in your shared area.  This includes ‘the money of others’, joint funds, taxes, debts, inheritances and the ‘sharing’ of yourself in the most personal sense.  Communications around this remain active all month.  Travel or a new philosophy of life may spring forth as a result and bring a sense of well-earned relief.  You always do your bit but to keep a balance, we have to be open to receiving too.  Allow life to reward you!

Libra:   Resident Uranus and four personal planets spend the month passing through your 7^th House of relationships and partnerships.  And then New Moon, also in your opposite sign on 10^th heralds a new phase with ongoing communications.  Mid-month the focus changes to your shared area in a beneficial way.  ‘The money of others’, joint funds and the sharing of yourself are on the agenda.  The more creative you are about this, (and possibly the more generous), the more benefits you will reap!

Scorpio:   New Moon on 10^th in your work, health and service to others zone, suggests a fresh approach to an already highly active and possibly emotive area.  Your well-being is implicated here too.  Add something restorative to your daily routine or take something draining, out!  Mid-month onwards, your sights turn to relationships and partnerships.  Creative approaches bring rewards.  Full Moon in your sign on 25^th reminds you to honour your feelings.  You are a water sign.  Honour your emotions.  As Shakespeare wrote:  ‘This above all: to thine own self be true.  And it must follow, as the night the day.  Thou canst not then be false to any man’.

Sagittarius:   Romance, children and creativity – all full of life and raring to go, find fresh faith with the New Moon on 10^th.  Innovate, create and relate.  Your focus then moves to work, health and service to others.  Relationships with colleagues go well, as does health, so long as you don’t over-indulge.  Consider adding sensory pleasure to your day too (Yes!  This could even include exercise).  Full Moon in your 12^th House of the unconscious, brings emotional realisations to the surface around Full Moon on 25^th.  However inconvenient, welcome them!

Capricorn:   A lively line-up of personal planets, intensified by New Moon on 10^th, marks a new phase in mother and home and perhaps in self-care too.  And if beautifying your home, start the ball rolling in the first half of the month.  Mid-month the focus shifts to romance, children and creativity.  Allow yourself to enjoy them all!  Full Moon on 25^th raises emotion around friends, groups, communities and humanitarian ideals.  Use your organisational skills to bring good intentions to fruition!

Aquarius:   Your mind and communications are buzzing and although this may not be relaxing, you are at your devastating best!  If new ideas arise around New Moon on 10^th, capture them and take them forwards.  Mid-month the heart seeks solace in mother and home.  This is a good time to solidify and beautify your home and to put self-nurture seriously on your agenda too!  Full Moon on 25^th dramatically features father, career and social status and you may find yourself in the public eye.  Apply emotional energy to these areas.

Pisces:   Money, possessions, security and self-worth all take up your attention in the first half of the month.  And with New Moon on 10^th they take on a new light and a new phase begins.  While you are digesting all of this, the focus evolves into communications, including physical movement.  Singing or dance lessons could bring fresh delights and new ways of thinking.  Be creative in all communications and the outcome (and mental outcome) should be good!  Full Moon on 25^th highlights the emotional side of travel, philosophical or legal matters.  Face this head-on and seek to understand.

March 2013

We have a gentle, watery start to the month, with four planets in Pisces (or five if you include Chiron).  This is a good time for reflection and checking in with yourself and others.  When Moon joins them on 10th, leading to a New Moon in Pisces on 11^th, emotion guides us to a fresh start.  Mercury goes direct on 17^th, bringing clarity.  Wait for that before signing anything important.  When Mars rushes into Aries on 11th, followed by the Sun (on 20^th) and Venus (on 22^nd), suddenly it’s Spring!  Uranus gets triggered off too – surprises for all…

So what will this mean for you?

Read your Sun sign and your Ascendant sign if you know it.

Aries:   The Sun has been away from you for the longest time which brings low ebb until Mars (your ruling planet) changes the tempo on 12^th and from 20^th onwards, you are buzzing!  Uranus brings excitement, Sun – energy, Venus – charm and Mars – drive.  Nothing can stop you!  Even the challenge of Plutonian authority only serves to sharpen your resolve!  Look out everyone, Aries is back!

Taurus:   Friends, groups and community absorb you up to 11^th when new opportunities could open up.  Mars takes the spotlight the following day though when it moves into your 12^th House of the unconscious, institutions, the internet, compassion and healing.  Sun and Venus your ruling planet follow on 20^th and 22^nd so loads of creative energy is available behind the scenes.  Uranus gets stirred up by all of these which could re-arrange your usual internal setting.  Allow sudden realisations to lead the way!

Gemini:   New Moon on 11^th marks a new cycle in your father, career and social status zone.  Use it to look at things afresh.  The day after, Mars directs your energy towards friends, groups, community and collectives.  Sudden changes are startling but bring excitement and refreshment.  Politics or humanitarian movements might grab you too.  Full Moon on 27^th could bring romance.  Be open to change!

Cancer :   Travel and new horizons (including inner ones) are highlighted on 11^th but Mars draws your attention immediately afterwards to your father, career and social status zone.  Uranus has been shaking things up here for two or three years and the present rush of planets will remind you that there’s still further to go.  Full Moon on 27^th falls in your mother and home area, so lots of emotion will be pulling you this way too!  Try to find a balance but don’t abandon your ambitions.

Leo:   Reflect on ‘shared areas’ at the start of the month.  New Moon on 11^th could bring in a new regime on the joint finances front too.  The world beckons from 12^th onwards and by 20^th it’s insistent.  This is an exciting time for travel, deep study, exploring, finding meaning and legal matters.  Events and results will be unexpected in the build-up to 28^th.  Be open to adventure!

Virgo:   New Moon in your relationships and partnerships zone on 11^th brings a breath of fresh air but there is barely time to enjoy it as Mars shifts the focus to joint funds and your shared area.  Sun and Venus follow suit soon after, which could mean money in and not just money out.  Uranus already there gets awakened and promises a lot of surprises.  Allow yourself to be open to life.

Libra:   New Moon on 11^th brings a fresh start at work or with health.  But eyes swing quickly to relationships and partnerships the following day as Mars leaps into action.  Sun and your planet Venus are close on its heels and one by one, they all activate Uranus.  Change, disruption and revolution don’t sound relaxing but they could be exciting!  Full Moon is in Libra on 27^th.  Be forthright!

Scorpio:   Venus and Mercury harmonise with Saturn in your sign on 7^th.  This helps others to understand where you are right now.  Then New Moon on 11^th brings a fresh cycle in love affairs, children and creativity.  The focus moves quickly on though as Mars bursts into your work, health and service to others zone.  Forget routine as it meets Uranus on 22^nd, bringing sudden surprises.  Sun and Venus are not far behind, so expect a week of wonders.  Relationships with colleagues look lively too.

Sagittarius:   Home hums nicely along and New Moon on 11^th marks a new era for you.  There isn’t much time to reflect on this as Mars moves into your 5^th House of love affairs, children and creativity, the very next day.  This is just the beginning of an exhilarating adventure as Sun and Venus join in and wake up Uranus.  Make time for creative pursuits and fun!

Capricorn:   The mind is calm as the month begins, until Mars hits your 4^th House of ‘mother and home’ on 12^th.  Time to move things forward on the home-front: be that roll up your sleeves or get professional help.  All kinds of unexpected events and discoveries occur too.  Take them in your stride, knowing you’re up to whatever it takes.  Full Moon on 27^th raises emotion around father, career and social status.  Do whatever’s necessary.

Aquarius:   Attend to security matters at the start of the month and then follow Mars into your 3^rd House of communications.  With tons of ideas and mental energy to spare, get talking, writing, broadcasting, teaching and networking!  Siblings and neighbours may feature in an unexpected way too.  Keep an eye out for your nervous system amidst all the excitement.  It could get fried, so be sure to make time for physical movement and direct some of this energy there.  Find a form you like and get going!

Pisces:   Your month starts in comfortable waters and we’re all going to be on your wave-length.  There’s a helpful line-up of planets on 7^th too.  New Moon on 11^th is also in your sign and brings a sense of fresh renewal.  The focus then changes as Mars leaps into your 2^nd House of security.  It’s time for action!  This could involve job-hunting, profile raising, new projects to increase the coffers or alternatively, a shake-up of your value system and downsizing.  Whichever path you take, it’ll be creative and exhilarating!

February 2013 Horoscope

Two planets go retrograde this month.  Saturn goes into reverse on 18th taking us on a six month review of emotional matters that were glossed over in mid-November.  Mercury goes retrograde on 23rd too, also in a Water sign, so we need to give some thought to emotional communications too.

So what will this mean for us all?   Read your Sun sign below and your Ascendant sign, if you know it.

Aries:   Pleasure, as Venus glides through your friends, groups, and communities zone this month but the main thrust forward is behind the scenes.  Creative work, compassion, healing and the internet are buzzing.  Full Moon on 25th puts work and health into the foreground.  If you’ve been going to excess in any way, in relation to these, put sensible thoughts into action.  (Yes, this could include more exercise!)  Meanwhile, Saturn calls for a review of joint funds, taxes, debts, inheritances and ultimately, the sharing of yourself…

Taurus:   Energy is humming in your friends, groups and communities zone.  Enjoy and take care with communications from 23rd.  Meanwhile, Saturn is beckoning you back to take a second look at partnerships. Something got over-looked mid-November and needs to be reviewed again.  Full Moon on 25th brings possible romance in a friendship or group setting when thoughts and actions move mysteriously together.  Career is running smoothly too and people in high places will respond well to your requests, so don’t be afraid to ask!

Gemini:   Lots of contradictory things are happening in your father, career and social status zone and you will find the will and energy to push ahead.  And remember to take care with communications from 23rd.  Full Moon on 25th falls in your ‘home’ area.  Put your ideas to create a dreamier home, into action.  From 18th it’s time to look again at work, health and daily routine.  Saturn is suggesting you’ve glossed over something that presented itself in November.  Go back and look.  You have until July to work out what it is. It involves your well-being!

Cancer:   Money from others looks sweet but your lively area is travel, other cultures, studies, in-laws and legal matters, although communications here may need careful handling from 23rd.  Love affairs, children and creativity will require a long second look starting on 18th.  Events in November need looking at again.  Get organised and put structures in place to cover your responsibilities.  This will then allow time and space for creativity.  Full Moon on 25th may bring certain details to light, regarding siblings, neighbours or communications.  You can hit the nail on the head if you choose but a compassionate approach might be more productive.

Leo:   Joint funds, the money of others and sharing yourself are looking lively, and communications may be tricky from 23rd.  Sign anything important before then.  Full Moon on 25th falls into your money, security and self-esteem zone.  Thoughts are things, so think well and take action.  Mother and home matters require a second look which may involve nurturing (or a shortage of it).  So what is needed in the home?  Give this your attention.  (And we’re not talking furniture.  Or if we are: it’s symbolic).

Virgo:   Relationships and partnerships are full of action.  Enjoy riding the wave.  Venus is in your work and health zone for most of the month too which brings well-being and good relationships with colleagues.  Communications and dealings with siblings or neighbours pull you up mid-month though.  Heavy matters here which may have escaped your full attention in November, require more of your attention.  Wade through but keep your mind positive.  Full Moon in your sign on 25th brings a tsunami of emotion too.  You have a voice. Just use it.

Libra:   Work, health, colleagues, daily routine and service to others are lively but watch communications after 23rd.  Full Moon on 25th highlights your unconscious.  Pay attention to your dreams (and day-dreams, including internet browsing).  There may be inspiration that could be applied to your work and wellbeing.  Meanwhile, security (whether that takes the form of finances, income, food, values or self-esteem) requires a second look from 18th.  Matters which arose in November need more thought and more attention from you.  One or two of these areas may even be connected.  Apply deep thought.  You have until July to fathom it out!

Scorpio:   Travel, philosophy, other cultures, in-laws, studies or legal matters are active this month.  Enjoy them and watch communications from 23rd.  Full Moon on 25th highlights your friends, groups and community zone.  Some words may be needed.  Saturn’s reverse movement on 18th brings the need for even more soul-searching.  It’s in your sign and you’ll have to go deeper.  We’re looking at identity and self-expression.  Something was missed mid-November and it’s key to your long-term development.  Go back and find it.

Sagittarius:   Father, career and social status are lively areas this month and watch communications from 23rd.  On 18th Saturn changes direction behind the scenes and so perhaps will you.  Others may not be aware of this but you will be.  It relates to something not fully grasped last November.  You have until July to work out what this was.  Give it your earnest attention.  Full Moon on 25th falls in your 4th House of mother and home, bringing huge emotion and the need for nurture.  Express it.

Capricorn:   Communications or dealings with siblings or neighbours are buzzing this month.  Apply your energy here but take care with communications and contracts from 23rd.  Finances look pretty good this month though.  Full Moon on 25th raises emotions around travel, in-laws, philosophical or legal matters.  However tempting, don’t say anything you might regret…  Friends, groups, communities and organisations need a second look from 18th or even a third, as Saturn goes retrograde until July.  Something meaningful was over-looked or missed mid-November.  Retrieve it.

Aquarius:   Your charm flows this month which helps you to seemingly sail through tricky matters.  But be sure to attend to financial matters before 23rd.  Full Moon on 25th falls into your ‘shared area’.  Can you allow your individuality to be breached by deeply sharing yourself with another?  This always a knotty question for Aquarians: even more so this Full Moon.  Father, career and social status need your full attention from 18th as Saturn changes direction.  Your own authority may need looking at too.  What career path or status makes sense to who you now are?  Think hard!  Cast your mind back to last November.  A nugget passed over then could help to inform you.  You have five months to work it out.

Pisces:   Loads of planets are zooming through your sign this month, including the Sun which brings you energy and Mars which brings vigour.  This is lucky, as you’ll need both!  How could so much be going on at once?  Full Moon on 25th tests your position on mind versus heart and partnerships…  And from 18th, Saturn clouds the travel, study, philosophy and legal horizon and will require your total honesty (yes, even with yourself).  Make sure you have a leg to stand on.

December 2012 Horoscope

The New Moon in Sag. on 13^thcoincides with a planetary change of direction as Uranus goes direct on the same day.  The recent review of matters which started mid-July this year is now complete.  Change is on the agenda once again – and action too!  Impulses might be strong but they help us to understand aspects of ourselves that we may have been neglecting and need to integrate.

So what will this mean for us all? 

(Read your Sun sign and your Ascendant sign too if you know it).

Aries:  Mars continues to push your career and status area ahead until 26^th while travel, education and your outlook all look fresh and frisky, especially with the New Moon on 13^th.  Having now absorbed recent inner changes, Uranus’s turnaround in your sign on the same day, heralds it’s time to surge ahead.  Charm carries you forward from the 16^th to 19^th and luckily gathers co-operation from others. Projects  considered in late March and abandoned in July, look viable again.  And you, more than anyone, have just the panache to make something of them!  The Sun and Moon in your career versus home axis at Full Moon (on 27^th and 28^th) may require decisions.  Be ready to make them!

Taurus:   The New Moon on 13^th opens opportunities to share (including sharing yourself).  Your antennae are receptive to new frequencies too and suddenly everything seems once again possible.  Projects considered in late March and put to one side in mid-July are worth another look.  The internet could be helpful or instrumental in this too, as could opportunities for healing.  Relationships go smoothly until 16^th and then ‘shared areas’ sweeten and you could benefit from ‘the money of others’.  Venus and Uranus confirm your inner-landscape is changing.  Go with it.  Your outer landscape will change too.  If this brings realisations that you may have outgrown some people, be sure to go with that growth.

Gemini:   Changes to friendships, teams and community startle you at first but prove stimulating from 13^th onwards.  Partnerships also take a fresh turn on the same day and go well from 16^th and you move easily in society together.  Mars moving into your 9^th House on 26^th requires a re-think in your outlook.  Time to travel, pursue outstanding legal matters, initiate a course of study or look at life afresh – outside the box.  Broader horizons are needed now so don’t let the comforts of habit hold you back!  Full Moon on 27^th and 28^th brings up a familiar, old chestnut –  should you hold on to what you’ve got or share it with others?

Cancer:   Romance, children and creativity flow until 16^th and then your charms are needed at work or in being of service to others.  The New Moon on 13^th signals a fresh start in health matters too.  Don’t wait until New Year to re-vamp your health routine, start on 13^th!  Intensity in partnerships calms somewhat after 26^th but career and social status is the real area for movement after 13th.  Although work and career sound like the same thing to many, astrologically they are quite different areas.  From 16^th to 19^th though they’re in perfect synch.  Innovate!

Leo:   Creating harmony at home is easier up to 16^th then romance, children and creativity become the areas that start to flow.  Travel plans, academic pursuits or legal matters freshen up on 13^th and ideas thought about in March and abandoned in July, hold exciting viability once again!  Mars in your opposite sign from 26^th   prepares you to be more assertive and challenge partners and opponents.  This may take them by surprise but surprise can be a very effective strategy!  Full Moon on 27^th and 28^th brings up the private need to look at the relationship either between: work versus mission or your present daily routine versus spiritual well-being.  Make the adjustments needed for a meaningful way forwards.

Virgo:   Lots of communication, a fresh start and harmony in your mother and home area this month, especially on 13^th while intensity continues in romance, children and creativity.  Work and health get your attention from 26^th as Mars moves in, bringing fresh energy and get-up and go.  This is the perfect time to set up a new health regime, so don’t wait till New Year!  Good time to look for a new job or promotion too!  Joint funds and sharing (including sharing yourself) take an energetic turn on 13^th.  If it’s time for new rules (including new rules for yourself): make them!  Full Moon on 27^th and 28^th brings up the question of romance versus friendship or family versus humanity or community.  You have a voice in this too – use it!

Libra:   Finances settle after mid-month and communications improve.  If you have any tricky negotiations ahead, plan them for 16^th – 19^th.  Working on communications can help to bring about a change of gear and forward movement in relationships and partnerships on 13^th    This could include reviving plans that were thought of in March but abandoned in July.  The Full Moon on 27^th and 28^th brings up the contradictory demands of career and social standing versus power issues at home.  You may have to make a stand!  As the month ends, it’s time to focus on romance, children or creativity.  Assert yourself and be experimental!

Scorpio:   Work, health, being of service to others and also your finances make a turnaround on 13^th and flow together with anew zing from 16^th to 19^th.  Possibilities looked at in March but then discarded in July, may in fact be viable as Uranus starts to move forwards once again.  Venus in your sign until 16^th highlights your charisma but communications (and possibly dealings with siblings or neighbours) remain intense and culminate at Full Moon on 27^th and 28^th.  The themes presented as the Sun and Moon oppose each other are: – the higher mind versus the lower mind.  And possibly – how can you apply your principles to daily communications?  Guard against obsessive thinking and stretch your legs as you mull this over.  Once it’s passed and you’re resolved, you’ll find you have new energy to take action in or about the home.

Sagittarius:   Your charms are irresistible from 16^th but you might be too preoccupied with finance and security to make the most of it…  Compulsive goings-on are changing your security and financial landscapes and with it your sense of self-worth.  Full Moon on 27^th and 28^th also poses a question: what should you share and what should you keep for yourself?  While more assertive in your communications from 26^th, the big shift this month lies in your romance, children and creativity zone.  Be open to change and surprises!

Capricorn:   You remain a powerhouse for most of the month as Pluto, Mars and then the Sun seek to express themselves in your sign.  New possibilities appear in dreams or through the internet from mid-month which somehow enable change to take place in your mother and home zone where the big shift is taking place.  Things kept or put on hold in March or July can once again move forwards but make sure your new approach is original.  Prepare to readjust on 13^th and innovate!  You’ll get more assertive about finances from 26^th which may not suit others… too bad!

Aquarius:   The background rumbling of changes taking place in friendships come to light on 13^th with the New Moon.  New people and groups turn up to delight and refresh you.  Communications and ideas also awaken you with a jolt as Uranus starts to move forwards once again.  Your new line of thinking attracts different people who also provide fresh and exciting ideas.  The landscape of your mind has changed which is both startling and freeing!  Try new forms of physical movement too or learn a new language!  Your career path looks smooth until 16^th, then friends, groups and community or organisations become your source of pleasure.  A build-up in your unconscious challenges your work and health routine at Full Moon on 27^th and 28^th but then fuels you into personal action and much can be achieved!

Pisces:   Travel and studies bode well till 16^th then career prospects glow and favours could be granted from authority figures.  New Moon on 13^th also highlights a new phase linked to father, career and social status.  The big shift though is in finances and security as Uranus changes direction, also on 13^th.  Changes linked to income generating ideas or security, looked at last march and put on hold in July, can come to fruition.  Self esteem and values may undergo a shift too.  Your unconscious may demand to be heard from 26^th when Mars moves in, so pay it some attention, dreams too.  The question posed by Full Moon on 27^th and 28^th is: friendship or romance?
