Romance soars with the Sun on the 7th and 8th, but this benign influence is followed by a nerve-wracking battle between restless Mercury, rebellious Uranus and overblown Jupiter on the 8th-10th. Watch out for travel snafus and try not to rush into business decisions. (However, some enlightening ideas may come from the chaos!) These jarring planetary energies run headlong into a Pluto-Sun collision on the 10th-11th, sure to take some of us kicking and screaming into personal transformation. Travel and communications smooth out with the romantic Mercury-Venus rendezvous on the 12th-if you can stay clear of the manipulative Pluto vibrations that follow on the 15th.
If you know your rising sign from your time of birth, read that also.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Disruptions in travel plans, even if it’s just a trip to the grocery store, can plague you this week. Now isn’t the time to ignore that strange noise coming from your car. A startling idea that comes to you now may prove lucrative later on.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Love is divine, which is a good thing because your finances are on a roller coaster ride. Forego that large expenditure, if possible, until after next week. A social contact brings you a moneymaking opportunity.
Gemini (May 21-June 21)
You’re either soaring to new personal heights or plunging into the pits, depending on the beneficial (or crazy-making) people around you now. Stay centered-don’t get caught up in someone else’s drama.
Cancer (June 22-July 22)
Moonchildren are feeling the chaos. A positive attitude and healthy diet will keep you clear-headed. Take some time for yourself for spiritual nourishment. A quiet, romantic tête-à -tête wouldn’t hurt, either.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
The urge (or necessity) to spend big overtakes you. A power struggle with a partner may be involved. A revelation now about your emotional nature will help you work things out. A friend gives you a valuable insight.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You may have to be the sane one when your partner or family member goes off the rails. Are you thinking of moving or drastically changing your home in some way? Perhaps changing your inner life will help you gain happiness.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Your charisma brings romance, if you can keep your skepticism at bay. You’re especially eloquent in expressing your feelings, so let those you care about know how special they are. At work, an unexpected glitch brings temporary chaos.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Strive for clarity when communications turn adversarial. Your integrity may be at stake. Access your detective talents to uncover the truth. On the relationship front, intimacy grows deeper after you express how you really feel.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You’re caught in the eye of the proverbial hurricane in your personal life, when everyone around you seems to be going nuts. Be your usual philosophical self until things calm down. Strive for harmonious communications with your partner.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Introspection can bring some amazing insights now on what is holding you back from personal fulfillment. An expanded path is right ahead of you, if you can see it. At work, creative communications are the key to success.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Your Uranus ruler turns retrograde on the 10th for several months, encouraging inner spiritual and emotional work, which will open the door to more powerful creativity. Some of this may involve a bit of backtracking in your plans.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
A relationship challenge can lead to increased clarity between you and your significant other. Be honest. A snafu at work creates a power struggle with a coworker. On the bright side, socializing at home with friends brings satisfaction.
