Volcanic eruptions in the romance arena are indicated on the 20th when sensuous Venus collides with probing Pluto-a green light for scrutinizing your relationship if you can avoid the descent into nitpicking. This detective energy is heightened by the sun’s transit into penetrating Scorpio on the 22nd. A major shift toward mental, emotional and spiritual clarity takes place when Neptune turns direct on the 25th (just in time to clarify the confusing Mercury aspect on the 23rd). The full moon eclipse on the 27th can produce shakeups in financial transactions and a burst of energy for romantic tête-à -têtes. Love turns sweet (and a little more rational) when Venus transits into Libra on the 28th.
If you know your rising sign from your time of birth, read that also.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Neptune turning direct presents you with increased social contacts, and a close friend may inspire you toward a new direction. The full moon may prove challenging to your finances, so be conservative about spending.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
The part of your career you placed on hold last spring when Neptune turned retrograde now gets the go-ahead. Strive for clarity. The full moon energizes romance and may present a financial opportunity (double-check the fine print).
Gemini (May 21-June 21)
You begin the week in a bit of a fog, so double-check communications. The full moon clarifies a past issue. After Neptune turns direct, you may receive a startlingly clear idea about your future direction, so listen to your intuition.
Cancer (June 22-July 22)
The full moon heightens activities with friends and perhaps your community involvement as well. If you experienced a disappointment or sad event last spring you can now look at the experience in a more positive light.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Increased clarity with your significant other is the gift of Neptune turning direct. If single, the clearer you are about what you need in a partner, the sooner you’ll manifest him/her. The full moon energizes your career.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
The full moon may bring about a trip and awakens your perceptions about your future direction. Neptune turning direct clarifies a possible health issue or at least removes any denial you may have about your health regimen.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Romance may hit a stumbling block around the 20th, but love soars after Venus enters your sign on the 28th. Be careful with spending/investing during the full moon. Neptune turning direct clarifies romance and heightens your creativity.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
The full moon brings out relationship issues, beginning around the 20th when the need for a change in action or attitude is made apparent. Neptune turning direct clarifies your home life and helps heal your relationship with a family member.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Hardworking Caps need to play when a burst of romantic energy accompanies the full moon. As for career, networking is especially effective after the 28th. Neptune’s direct motion inspires spirituality and helps heal the past.
