Aries
With Jupiter on his own in your income sector but getting ready to leave in a few weeks time, this is a week for consolidating things on the income front, cementing your expectations and beginning the process of walking the talk. This comes just as Mars is about to move into his last full month in your work sector, with a visit from the Moon from Monday to Wednesday sharpening your instincts and evoking the kind of emotional responses that will get your passions moving. Meanwhile, although Jupiter is still another 2 weeks away from your communication sector there is something special developing there, with the communication lines now running in all directions. This is having the most impact on the relationship front, where the door is open to second chances and making up for lost time.
Taurus
The Sun and Mercury both left your sign last week, wrapping up your birthday month and setting your new solar year on the course you want it to continue on. Yet with Jupiter still here the much bigger job of laying down the foundations for a Jupiter cycle of expansion that won’t run its course until 2023 is still under way, although due to leave on the 12th June this has become a lot more urgent. Already the focus is shifting to your income situation, which is fast becoming the biggest game in town. Jupiter will return to your income sector on the 12th June, kicking off the most expansive year in over a decade for both income matters and for expanding your expectations across all the currencies in your life, but already the door is open to both new opportunities and second chances.
Gemini
After a solar eclipse in your sign last week and a lunar eclipse in your relationship sector next week, a week off from the intensity eclipses bring is just what you need. While the Sun returned to your sign and kicked off one of your most important solar years in a decade last Monday and Mercury returned last Thursday this is the first, last and only full week that they’ll spend here together. You begin the week with the Sun and Mercury aligned in your sign, giving you the clarity and intellectual savvy to take your power back and start making informed choices and decisions. It’s Mercury’s alignment with Venus over the weekend that not only puts heart and mind on the same page but the past and future as well, a time when the door is open to both new opportunities and second chances.
Cancer
More and more there is a need and a desire to pull back, for you’re not only now in the wind down period of your current solar year, a time when there is a need to review and look back over the year that has been, but heart and mind are also in need of respite. If life has been hectic, then this gives you a chance to step back, though any thoughts of being able to retreat to your cave and stay there will soon be discarded. With Jupiter now in his final weeks in your sector of friendship, teamwork and networking and Mars coming into his own in your communication sector, the need and the call to connect is just too strong and too important to isolate yourself completely. However, you do need time to stop, recharge your batteries and hear yourself think, so set some clear boundaries.
Leo
Already the professional focus that over previous months has been all consuming, is starting to wane, especially after the Sun and Mercury’s departure from your career sector last week. Even Jupiter, here since June 2011, is getting ready to leave and in just 2 weeks from Wednesday you’ll be left with no planetary activity in your career sector, something you haven’t experienced since April 2011. With Pluto staying on in your work sector there is no danger of losing your professional momentum anytime soon, though the focus is shifting more to your income situation, where your fighting spirit is starting to emerge. Where all the energy that was focused on your professional game is shifting to is social, personal and professional networking.
Virgo
The only thing that is stopping your life from becoming professionally dominated is Jupiter, who won’t return to your career sector until 2 weeks from Tuesday. However, with the Sun and Mercury not only spending their first, last and only full week together in your career sector, but moving into the week aligned and Mercury aligning with Venus here over the weekend, this is still going to be a professionally dominated week. But with Jupiter still in an adventurous part of your chart there is a reluctance to fully throw yourself into your professional game, with a chance instead to keep your options open. With Mars igniting your personal passions, chances are you’re looking for a new quest to get excited about or at least an unwillingness to engage in anything that doesn’t excite you.
Libra
Give yourself a week off this week, either literally or metaphorically and embrace a sense of adventure. With things slowing down on the work front ahead of Neptune’s retrograde turn in your work sector next week and Chiron’s the week after and Mercury not returning to your career front until next week, regardless of the conditions in play this week this was always going to be a week for taking your professional hat off as much as possible. However, it just so happens that the Sun and Mercury are spending their first, last and only full week of the year together in your sector of travel, adventure, learning and discovery and that a desire for adventure and richer experiences finally has something concrete to latch onto. Life is too short for simply going through the motions.
Scorpio
After a solar eclipse in your financial sector last week and a lunar eclipse in your income sector next week, regardless of what the stars are up to this week this was always going to be a week where money matters were likely to dominate. This is doubly so with Mercury spending his first, last and only full week in your financial sector, giving you both a smart head for money and a chance to tap into the forces that are opening new doors and those that hold the door open to second chances. Until next Monday’s lunar eclipse the focus is on your financial situation as a whole though. Yet as much as this is a week where money matters may dominate, this is also an important week on the relationship and romantic fronts, with a reminder that there are some things in life that money can’t buy.
Sagittarius
Next Monday’s lunar eclipse in your sign will bring you to a fairly dramatic turning point in your solar year, marking the halfway point where you have a chance to look back at where you’ve been and forward to where you’ve gone. In the lead up to this, in what is an important and busy week on the relationship, work and career fronts, it’s more important than ever that you remain true to yourself. What you will find, especially the closer to next Monday’s lunar eclipse, is that this is being tested and that there are likely to be plenty of situations where standing up for or being true to yourself might mean rocking the boat. Yet this gives you a chance to come up against the very blocks that stopped you from being true to yourself in the past, this time with the support to push through.
Capricorn
It’s hard to imagine a more professionally focused week, except I don’t need to imagine because I know things are set to become even more professionally focused over the coming weeks. You begin the week with the Sun and Mercury aligned in your work sector and over the weekend Mercury will be the first planet to align with Venus since she arrived in early April. This is Mercury’s first, last and only full week in your work sector, with his intellectual savvy the clue that holds everything together. This comes just as the Moon’s last visit to your career sector while Saturn is in retrograde motion for another 30 years sharpens your professional instincts and hindsight. Yet playful Jupiter vibes and Mars’ passion for adventure won’t let you get away with life becoming all work and no play.
Aquarius
Mercury’s return to your work sector next week will open the door to the first planetary activity in either of your professional houses since November 2011. While it will be good to finally find your professional groove and get your professional year up to speed, it’s also important to make the most of one of the last weeks between now and mid 2015 that you can take your professional hat. For once the tide turns there’ll be no going back. Yet it’s where forces are now gathering in a playful, creative and romantic part of your chart that instead of dying down and giving over to busy work forces, will only get stronger over the coming months. The message coming through loud and clear from the stars this week is that finding and maintaining a balance between work and play is a must.
Pisces
Despite the fact that you begin the week with the Moon in your work sector and you have a lunar eclipse in your career sector next week, this is a week where the majority of the focus is on home and family matters and on your relationships. After a solar eclipse in your home and family sector last Monday the Sun is settling into his month long visit with a lot less fanfare than it started with and with lucky Jupiter returning in 2 weeks from Tuesday, this is becoming an increasingly important area of your life. With Mercury, planet of communication spending his first, last and only full week in your home and family sector, communication is essential, not only on the home front but on the relationship front as well, where things are finally catching their second wind.
