TAURUS; The universe will help you
not only manage money more effectively, but also to find ways to bring in
more cash. You will have two exceptionally fine aspects for money: First, Mercury and Venus are in your 2nd
house (house of money). You may be focused on two financial deals or you may
receive an extra income. In the other
hand, it's time to go shopping for things you need! When it comes to
money management, you are careful by nature. With these planets you may an
opportunity to change work, having a raise, make more money with a side job
or new client. Keep in mind that Mercury
retrogrades at the end of this month, so, you may feel the resulting
slowdowns and cancellations well in advance of its onset. Mercury
retrograde is not a good time to
sign contracts, to move or to make personal decisions. With Venus in your sign, creative projects
could attract love, friends, groups and associates to your side. What you say
has a profound affect on the lives of people around you but realize that you
have a right to think and feel as you do, anything can happen! |

GEMINI: With Mercury in your sign, you can learn to better understand how you
connect with others, and how to improve the quality of your
relationships. Any efforts you make in
that direction will bring you great rewards, both now and later. Use
everything you've learned about yourself over the last few years to mold new
expectations for the future. Your good health and high energy could enable
you to explore territories that are new and exciting, so, find ways to direct
your high energy into productive areas. You may have to pinch yourself to be
sure you’re not dreaming. The biggest danger now may be coming from your own
need to defend your ideas. Your insecurities may motivate you to overreact
when you feel like you’re being attacked. Move beyond your personal point of
view and try to see the situation from a wider perspective. It’s time to take
another step beyond your self interests. Happiness may come from running
around, seeing friends, and sharing your joy over newfound conditions. This
month is the month to express your contagious enthusiasm. You could sell
anything to almost anyone. Appeal to coworkers to join you in collecting
funds or in starting projects that will benefit everyone. Investing money in
your own talent could be essential now. You’re able to find a gallery or
showcase for your artistic endeavors. In fact your financial life is improved
by any activity that relates to beauty, pleasure, or art. You can also ask
for aid from people who are in a position to invest in you. |

CANCER: Mercury and Venus in your 12th
solar house will highlight your intuition. If you have not come to rely on
this important sixth sense, you are missing out on a wonderful gift. It is a
good month to meditate about the events of the year and to make any strategic
changes to get your life in order. The thinking you do before you act is
always critical. Take things slow and easy while you can and treat yourself
to quiet time. Even if you face some difficulty, stress and anxieties, this
month you still feel more confident. Send out your resume, advertise your
abilities, and value what you have to give to certain industries. Before the 25th
responses from friends, groups, or associates will be especially positive. After
the 25th , Mercury retrogrades, so you
may need someone to help you share the decisions and responsibilities of
important projects. This month, you may be contemplating a home in another
locale. If so you should investigate before you make an impulsive move.
Relationships may become stronger and more enduring this month. Successes
boost the strength of business partnerships; love relationships may advance
to the next level of commitment. Therefore, this is a great month to get
together with anyone close to you, for your relationship is very likely to
grow because of it. |

LEO: This should be one of your very favorite months of the year. Mars
is in your sign, giving you outstanding get-up-and-go. Suddenly you feel
there is nothing you can't accomplish, and you're right about that. You will
have several weeks to schedule meetings and present your proposals and
dreams to others. You won't take "no" for an answer, nor should
you! Your passion for what you desire will be irresistible! With the new Moon and Venus in
your 10th solar house will be a glorious month to attend a major
party, wedding, reunion, or to go on vacation. Creatively, you will operate
on an unusually high, sophisticated level this month. Your mastery over your
talents is apparent, and others appear to be as excited by your abilities as
you are! You may find you will attend meetings to discuss projects; someone
wants your input, and you're glad to give it. However, THIS month will be
special in that you will have a new moon in your 10th house, so
projects started now may spin into being and propel you to a whole new place. |

VIRGO: When you are being too careful and too cautious your judgment can in
fact totally misguide you. This may explain the frenzy in the early part of
this month, which could find you hastily cutting off any and all ties.
Sometimes you ignore your inner voice when really you should give this sixth
sense much more credit for its reliability. When you are called upon to make
decisions about present day relationships, look to your past experiences.
What you have already been through holds the key to what you should or should
not do if you wish to build the partnership of your dreams. You need to get
out and mingle with those who can help you get ahead. Your involvement in
active groups will allow you to demonstrate your leadership qualities. At work,
discuss your ideas and concepts with a partner, your mate, or someone in a
position. This person may bring more help than you think. This is also a month
to share emotional expression. You may be in a phase where your feelings are
closer to the surface than normal, and as uncomfortable as this might make
you feel, it’s also a cleansing time. Move the deepest fears right up to the
front of the line, where the light is bright and all can see. Ultimately, it
will help take the pressure off your hidden fears. Let go of the past. It’s
time to face your own demons, even if it appears they are coming from someone
else. You should enjoy creative
endeavors or physical fitness programs that will help get you into shape for
the summer. |

LIBRA: Your instincts will serve you well on both romantic and
business levels. Before you make any decisions in these areas and have
thought things carefully through, quiet your mind and listen closely to your
instincts before your final decision. Put thought into re-structuring your
organization strategy. There are a couple of adjustments that need to be made
in order to achieve maximum productivity. Once spotted, these changes will
seem very obvious and logical to you, seek out the unnecessary time-drains.
Also, investigate the “killing two birds with one stone” theory, perhaps
exercise with a loved one... this can be exceptional bonding time that does
not take away from necessary fitness time. By choice, there are positive
changes in the works for you and you must pay attention to small details, it
is the small details that will ultimately lead you to big changes as they
build upon one another. Your loved ones will need a sense of feeling included
in your goals so keep them informed. The consistent contact will strengthen
your relations during this busy time, as well. This would also be a good time
to express your tender feeling towards another whom you have been thinking a
lot about. After the 5th have fun with a loved one, you have been
too serious lately! |

SCORPIO: For some
reason you may not feel like you are in tune with the situation you find
yourself in this month. Try not to get too pushy when it comes to your
opinion about how things should be done. Honor other people's perspectives
and approaches. It may be hard for others to commit to things the same way
you can. Their methods may be different, but that doesn't mean that they are
necessarily any better or worse than yours. A relative may get some bad news
concerning a close friend of theirs and will look to you for support. Even
though they will make light of the situation, be aware that they are hurting
deeply inside. Partnership matters may demand that you allow for the
unpredictable. If everything seems to go wrong at the base of your life and
electrical problems occur, both literally and figuratively, keep your head.
Don’t exaggerate the situation. This will pass. Everyone seems to have
problems with nervous tension, and be unable to speak clearly or make sense.
That also will pass. |

SAGITTARIUS: The future is stretching
out in front of you. The expectations you plant in your thoughts have a
greater power than ever over the experiences you encounter and create. Dive
into conversations with an enthusiasm to work things through this month. With
Mercury/Venus in Gemini, it will increase your sex appeal. You’ll have to be
ready to handle extra attention! If you ever thought of yourself as somewhat
invisible, you won’t feel that way later this month! Soft-spoken ideas may carry a great deal of
weight. If you feel that associates have stepped on your toes you will have a
greater impact if you use sweet talk, it will prove to yourself that you’re
on top of all situations. You definitely may discover a developing business
opportunity as a result of your determination. With Venus in your 7th
house of relationship, love could enter your life in a big way. If you want
it...dream about it, think about it, and believe in it. Mercury asks you to
make something more out of certain projects and relationships of the past. You'll
bring to consciousness a diversity of emotional responses that are deeply
enmeshed in your character. You will, in essence, be able to sort out your
reactions from others; to distinguish your fears from their own. The value of
knowing whose is whose and what is what can't be exaggerated: it's about
claiming your power, letting go of the past, and affirming your own
perceptions as the right ones to live by. |

CAPRICORN: With all
the good aspect of Jupiter, honor
and recognition come your way and financial success seems assured. You can
express your ideas to groups and make presentations that will not only win
approval but will also be solid and sound. Your commitment to work and public
life helps improve both your health and your sense of well-being. Social
situations could be particularly enjoyable now. You will feel Mercury retrogrades
slowdown some of your projects, as you see, this will cut into Mars’ visiting your 10th
solar house (career sector). A project from the past will probably jump to
life now or someone you knew from your past will call to offer you a place on
their team. Normally, is not normally a good time to accept a new job offer
when Mercury retrogrades, but for
you Capricorn, you CAN accept it
without fear. Any relationship initiated in the past
is favored under this dynamic. You will be extremely popular; thanks to your
ability to negotiate deals! If you are looking for love you could meet
someone important now. Have high hopes and passionate dreams. |

AQUARIUS: Feeling safe is a decision that we
make. Whether it's about feeling safe in your home, in your community, in
your country or in your own skin, I have seen that ultimately this is based
more on throwing away the evidence than on accepting it; more about throwing
away the past than about worshipping it or sitting around expecting it to
repeat itself. You are in new emotional and psychological territory. You're
likely to discover you're in new territory in many aspects of your life,
which is another way of saying that an old story about how threatened you are
is giving way to a new story about how safe you are, and how bold. If you
aren’t clear as to who you are, you will be defined
by others so take heed and be aware!!

PISCES: Imagine that everything in
your life is based on an arrangement, an agreement, a negotiated deal or a
contract. The more conscious those agreements, the better. Awareness itself
may stir up some turbulence, but that's a necessary part of the process, one
for which a little courage ought to ease the way. The reason that
negotiations are often so difficult is because both parties perceive their
own weakness in a situation, at the same time they
are reluctant to admit the strength of the other party. Try it this way: feel
your own strength, and affirm that it is more or less meaningless without the
strength of those close to you. That will make the solution to your current
puzzle clear. The simplest facts of life may vibrate with the most cosmic
overtones now. One of those is the recognition of how much you have to offer
the world, and how capable you are of rising to its demands on you. You have
long known that your stability and central location in the scheme of your
relationships offers you much protection from the rising and falling fortunes
of the world. You've long suspected that you have a gift to express that goes
beyond all the petty rules that have been established to make great
achievements that much more difficult. The greatest among them is having
faith in yourself, which is your true gift to the world. |
