The universe is back into throwing the kitchen sink at earthlings on this rather tense day in July 2012. Many souls are still reeling from yesterday’s Uranus stopping in Aries and reversal. Now it is Mercury’s turn to halt at 13 degrees of Leo (7:16PM PDT) and begin a three-week retrograde cycle that lasts until August 7. However, before arriving at tonight’s Mercury shift, there are numerous happenings in the busy skies. The Moon in Taurus remains void until 5:28AM PDT when the lunar orb enters flexible, mutable and airy Gemini. Reading, writing and research are emphasized, and then magnified by a Moon-Jupiter parallel (9:08AM PDT). It is also possible to come up with new ideas about increasing the value of your investments – courtesy of the monthly lunar union with Vesta (9:12AM PDT). Nutrition, diet, gardening and productivity are important themes today because Ceres forms an off-kilter, 150-degree tie with Pluto (12:41PM PDT) while the Sun makes a frictional, 45-degree link to Ceres (6:16PM PDT) and the Moon unites with Ceres (9:42PM PDT). If Mercury weren’t virtually motionless, the main essence of today’s vibrations would be centered on Ceres. However, the cosmos also offers you golden opportunities and another chance to reinforce your optimistic mind-set as the Moon unites with Jupiter (7:57PM PDT). Then, shortly afterwards, the Sun squares Saturn (9:15PM PDT) – a challenging alignment often associated with fear, pessimism, and chronic problems. Thus, it is under this strange cacophony of stellar aspects that Mercury heads into reverse – placing a strong emphasis on communications, information exchange, words and language, travel and transportation, health and medicine, business and trade, classes and primary educational pursuits. In general, it is always wise to be more cautious and careful during a Mercury retrograde time-period.
Your Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for June 22 – 24
Your Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope
by Jeff Jawer
No Holds Barred
June 22 – 24
This is a playful weekend when cutting loose and expressing yourself without inhibition can be a lot of fun. The good times start with the Moon shining in outgoing Leo, a dramatic sign that’s all about taking chances. Showing off shouldn’t be frowned upon because everyone deserves his or her moment in the spotlight. Going too far may occasionally be embarrassing, but heart connections come from releasing inhibitions and letting it all hang out.
The sign Leo is associated with the Sun, which aligns favorably with imaginative Neptune on Saturday. Romantic experiences that have no purpose other than mutual pleasure somehow make sense now. Set aside as many tasks as possible so that reality is left behind in the pursuit of a good time.
Sunday’s mood is a different story once the Moon shifts into analytical Virgo. The morning, though, may still be filled with hope and visions of brighter days ahead, yet a more sensitive tone is evident in the late afternoon and evening. The Moon’s stressful square with amorous Venus exposes vulnerabilities and feelings of uncertainty. A simple comment could be interpreted as a major criticism when that wasn’t the intention. Being kinder in what we say and gentler in our approach can reduce the likelihood of hurt feelings or wounded hearts.

Sunday, June 10, 2012
Aries
(March 21 – April 19)
Today you will realize that it’s impossible to truly “control” anything, even yourself, and that the best you can hope for is to have some “influence” over yourself and your surroundings. This will make you feel better, before the pink slip arrives.
Taurus
(April 20 – May 20)
You’ve heard that when economists use the word “nice”, they’re actually saying that something is homoscedastic and nonautoregressive. Today you will find out what they mean when they say something is “like, totally kewl.”
Gemini
(May 21 – June 20)
You will be tickled without mercy, today. Oddly, you will not be able to see your assailant.
Cancer
(June 21 – July 22)
You will try to alleviate the boredom you feel by making something creative with twine. Fortunately, it will work, but you’ll need a lot of twine.
Leo
(July 23 – August 22)
Good day to avoid pickled herring.
Virgo
(August 23 – September 22)
It was a simple mistake, which anyone could have made. What’s more, now you know better. I think, though, that the expression is too widespread for you to actually get it changed to “never look a gift horse in either end.”
Libra
(September 23 – October 22)
Someone who you really dislike, who is arrogance personified…will be nice to you. This is a good time to be afraid.
Scorpio
(October 23 – November 21)
What fun! You’ll be called in to a special meeting at work soon, where someone will have a “pink slip.” Sounds like party attire to me!
Sagittarius
(November 22 – December 21)
You will go into business making those little sugar packets that restaurants use, and make a fortune. The restaurants will have to use fewer of yours than anyone else’s. Is it due to the pictures on the packets, of really fat people? Who knows.
Capricorn
(December 22 – January 20)
You will walk into a door frame today, and people will smirk. Remember though, they’re smirking with you, not at you.
Aquarius
(January 21 – February 18)
You are about to have an unfortunate episode involving insects, grape Kool-Aide, and a revolving door.
Pisces
(February 19 – March 20)
Relationships are a lot like tables. One leg is love, one is trust, one is shared pleasures, and one is shared dreams. Lasting relationships need all four legs for balance, to hold up the burden of your troubles. In your case, though, you’ll never get rid of that irritating wobble.
Your Financial Horoscopes for Sunday, June 3rd
Aries
It was 4 weeks ago to the day that a Full Moon in your income sector not only challenged the Sun in your income sector, but lucky Jupiter as well, bringing things on both the income and financial fronts to a head. The Moon has returned to the same spot only to find the Sun gone, so there’ll be less financial pressure but even more reason to pay attention.
Taurus
So far income forces have had an easy ride, with Venus’ retrograde position in your income sector and the tailwind from a solar eclipse almost 2 weeks ago still fast tracking your forward momentum. However, with a lunar eclipse in your financial sector tomorrow you’re about to get the kind of challenges that will raise the bar and declare that it’s ‘game on’.
Gemini
With things about to start moving on the income front, make the most of the final days for some time when Pluto, planet of change and revolution is the only planet active in either of your money houses. Look at where there are fundamental financial matters that you need to take responsibility for, ensuring that when money starts coming in it doesn’t flow out the other end.
Cancer
There is absolutely nothing in today’s stars to suggest that you’re just 24 hours away from a lunar eclipse in your work sector or just weeks away from new doors opening on the income front. This gives you a day where you can get away with taking your work and your money hats off, while feeling confident that something is in the wind.
Leo
Where before income and financial matters were interlinked, their agendas are starting to separate. While things are speeding up on the income front and your fighting spirit is coming into its own, on the financial front as a whole it’s time to pull back and keep things ticking over, behind the scenes.
Virgo
Due to turn direct in your income sector in just over 3 week’s time, Saturn is slowing down to a crawl and will eventually come to a standstill. This is going to make it feel like things are becoming stuck and may appear to stall, but in reality once the tide turns you’ll find that the turnaround will be more extreme than you anticipate, so hold the faith and hang in there.
Libra
It was 4 weeks ago to the day that a Full Moon in your income sector not only created some valuable triggers on the income front, but also some wake up calls as the Moon went head to head with the Sun in your financial sector. While the Sun has moved on Jupiter is still there and the wake up calls, though not as strong, will be even more urgent.
Scorpio
With a lot of focus on your financial situation at the moment and the Moon not even in your income sector yet, it’s no wonder there’s nothing to support that you’re just 24 hours away from a potentially game changing lunar eclipse. An ordinary Full Moon in your income sector is enough to trigger events on the income front, with a lunar eclipse having a lot more clout.
Sagittarius
Over the weekend is the perfect time to take financial inventory, for with Mercury just 4 days away from your financial sector and Pluto already starting to feel some pressure on the income front, this is not the time for putting things off. It’s where you’ve told yourself that you’ll deal with something later that you need to deal with it or at least acknowledge it now.
Capricorn
When Venus visits your work sector the rule of thumb is, that where your heart leads the money will follow. Right now Venus is opening the door to second chances on the work front and with even bigger developments over the coming week, the scene is set to start reaping from what you’ve already sown, especially if you’re following your heart and working smarter.
Aquarius
With Neptune due to turn retrograde in your income sector in just 2 days time and Chiron a week to the day later, things are slowing down to a crawl. Yet rather than a sign that things are becoming stuck, this gives you a chance to process things, at a time when Mars is speeding things up on the financial front as a whole.
Pisces
While nothing may have actually changed on the money front, the nature of the conditions impacting both your income and financial situations lends itself to a growing sense of confidence. You’re able to look back at the past in a way that says ‘that was then and this is now’, allowing you to take ownership of the past without getting hung up on woulda, shoulda, couldas.
Your Daily Financial Horoscopes for June 2
Aries
The Moon has come full circle from last month’s Full Moon in your financial sector, returning to bring home the same messages but in a less dramatic way. The things that came to a head 4 weeks ago have had a chance to sink in and as the Moon returns you’ll find what didn’t make sense before is suddenly crystal clear.
Taurus
Today’s planetary forces put the power back in your hands, with Venus and Mercury’s alignment in your income sector putting a smart head for money and your financial desires on the same page. With Venus in retrograde and Mercury in direct motion, this also gives you a clear sense of where you’ve been and where you’re going.
Gemini
While you can’t do anything to speed up the arrival of the first planetary activity in your income sector for the year, which won’t kick off for another 5 days, you can prepare for their arrival. It all comes down to your sense of expectation and entitlement, for if you feel that you deserve more you’re more likely to spot and seize opportunities.
Cancer
One of the reasons why things are likely to improve on the income front, when doors start to open on the income front later this month, is the state of your professional game. While you’ve already invested a lot there are still some wildcards left to play out, with a need to keep your mind and your options open, especially on the work front.
Leo
As far as not only the thrust that your current professional year is getting but your professional game as a whole for years to come, you’re now in the end game. The Moon’s visit to your income sector over the last few months has given you a chance to put your professional and income objectives on the same page, allowing you to pick your battles wisely.
Virgo
As Saturn moves into the final weeks of his last retrograde phase in your income sector for another 30 years, it’s with the kind of confidence and support you haven’t had until now. All of a sudden you’re starting to get a sense that all the hard work, sacrifices and determination is starting to pay off.
Libra
The Moon has come full circle from last month’s Full Moon, a super Moon that brought things to a head in a major way. With the Sun no longer in your financial sector the financial tension has reduced, but with Jupiter in his final days in your financial sector the urgency has increased. Trust what a nose for money and anything that pushes your buttons is telling you.
Scorpio
Just 5 days after Mercury aligned with the Sun in your financial sector, putting financial objectivity and a smart head for money on the same page, he aligns with Venus today, creating a very different mix. Today not only sees Venus’ financial desires and Mercury’s smart head for money coming together, but a lot of foresight and hindsight.
Sagittarius
It’s before financial intensity and any pressure kicks in that you have a chance to decide how to play this. On both the income and financial fronts refuse to sweat the small stuff or to create challenges where there are none, while at the same time keeping your head out of the sand, dealing with things as they arise.
Capricorn
As Mercury and Venus, the planets of intellectual savvy and money align in your work sector today, this puts heart and mind as well as foresight and hindsight on the same page. At a time when you’re able to work smarter the door is open to both new opportunities and second chances, with a clear sense of where the money is.
Aquarius
As the Moon makes his monthly visit to your career sector, coming full circle from last month’s Full Moon, this is sharpening your professional instincts and creating a sense of confidence on the income front. It’s the Moon’s positive aspect to forces on the income front, that allows you to spot things you might otherwise miss.
Pisces
While the Moon’s visit to your financial sector over the last few days may have forced you to face some home truths, you can’t take ownership of the future without first taking ownership of the past. Where in the past this may have created some real tension, a growing sense of financial confidence allows you to face the past in a brave and stoic way.
Your Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 31st
Aries
The Moon is making his last visit to your relationship sector before Saturn turns direct later next month and as it will be another 30 years before they meet up here again, while the doors to the past are open, this gives you a chance to peep inside. It’s the Moon’s emotional response to past relationship matters that needs to be embraced and accepted.
Taurus
The Moon’s visit to your romantic sector over the last few days has given you a chance to tap back into your romantic passions, just as you’re about to move into Mars’ final month here. With your inner romantic warrior now in battle mode it’s time to get involved in the kind of romantic crusade that can take your love life into the future and beyond.
Gemini
As the Moon makes his last visit to your romantic sector before Saturn turns direct, this gives you one last chance to really embrace a sense of romantic nostalgia. It will be another 30 years before the Moon visits your romantic sector while Saturn is opening the door to the past and with Venus taking your heart on a trip down memory lane, this gives you a chance to immerse yourself in romantic nostalgia.
Cancer
You’re about to move into what is destined to be a bit of a turbulent month on the relationship front, with things that have been building behind the scenes destined to come to a head. This is a good thing, because it’s going to keep your relationship alive. Until then refuse to sweep anything under the carpet that could blow up on you later.
Leo
As the Moon makes his last visit to your communication sector while Saturn is in retrograde motion, not just for this year but for another 30 years, this gives you one final chance to not only give unsaid words a voice, but to delve as deep as it’s possible to go. Don’t let future relationships or the future of a current relationship suffer because of things you can let go of now.
Virgo
Until now things have been moving fairly quickly on the relationship front, with a lot of ups and downs. With those ups and downs now behind you and things having reached a more even pace, you’re able to take things slowly. If before your relationship focus was a mile wide but an inch deep, it now needs to be an inch wide but a mile deep.
Libra
There may be some short term relationship pressure or things pushing your buttons today, as the Moon’s return to your sign puts him in opposition with Uranus, the only planet active on the relationship front. Instead of ignoring this embrace it, for it’s giving you a chance to deal with things before they can escalate.
Scorpio
With Neptune turning retrograde in your romantic sector next week, Chiron the week after and both here for years to come, there should be zero urgency, aware that both the love gods and time are on your side. That can’t be said for your relationships, where you’re about to run out of support, with an urgent need to make the most of it while you’ve got it.
Sagittarius
It was only a week ago today that Mercury, planet of communication returned to your relationship sector, but due to leave in a week from today communication has become a lot more urgent. At what is such an important time for your relationships and with Mercury only here for 2 weeks, making use of every moment is a must.
Capricorn
Mercury, planet of communication is just a week away from a short 19 day visit to your relationship sector, which despite its brief duration is destined to open a lot of new doors but also bring some challenges and wake up calls. You’re able to get a jump on this by dealing with relationship issues while they’re still small and working now to get the communication lines open.
Aquarius
While having the Sun, Mercury and Venus in your romantic sector is creating some of the most romantic weeks of the year and in any other year would be as good as it gets, this is just the warm up for even bigger and better things to some. It’s in these early days that you need to view love as an evolving situation, one that is more about the journey.
Pisces
If the Moon’s visit to your relationship sector over the last few days shook things up and pushed some emotional buttons, then he’s done his job. With new doors opening on the romantic front next week and Mars about to move into his final month in your relationship sector, you need to get things out in the open and to know what you’re fighting for or against.
Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 30th
Aries
You have a chance now to tackle the communication lines, especially on the relationship front from both ends, working to give your heart and the past a voice, while staying in the moment and discussing the things you need to talk about. A mix of authenticity and of nostalgic sentimentality can go hand in hand.
Taurus
The key to making the most of fiery and passionate Mars’ final weeks in your romantic sector and the romantic passions you’re able to tap into, is confidence in what you deserve from love. It’s not only confidence moving forward that matters, with a chance now to view the past through filters that empower you.
Gemini
As the Sun and Venus draw closer to a rare Venus eclipse in your sign, in just a week from today, it’s the past and the future that are drawing close. With a lot of your romantic focus on the past but the Sun shining the light on the road ahead, this is starting to give you a clearer sense of where you’ve been and where you’re going, especially on the romantic front.
Cancer
With Pluto, planet of change and revolution in your relationship sector settling for the status quo or for anything that isn’t authentic is no longer an option. This makes it hard to fall into a sense of complacency, as you may have done in the past and it’s less that your relationships are changing and more that you are.
Leo
The laws of attraction and synchronicity are not only both in effect, they are slowly coming together, with serendipitous moments and encounters just as likely to create new opportunities as they are to create second chances. This makes it important to put your heart in the hands of fate and the love gods, trusting in something more than your five senses can see.
Virgo
If it feels like things are slowing down on the relationship front they are, but for all the right reasons. Neptune and Chiron, the planets of dreams and healing are the two planets keeping things active on the relationship front, with both slowing down ahead of their retrograde turns this gives you a chance to take things slowly.
Libra
Having Venus, planet of love in an adventurous part of your chart is always an advantage, bringing more adventure into your love life and reminding you that when it comes to love it’s all about the journey. But with Venus in retrograde motion the door is also open to second chances and to make up for lost time.
Scorpio
At the same time that Jupiter is in his final weeks of a year long visit to your relationship sector, working with you to tie up loose ends and to put your relationships on the right track, the very opposite is happening on the romantic front. Here the stars are with you for the long haul and over the next few weeks will open the door to second chances.
Sagittarius
At the same time that the Sun and Mercury are moving forward in your relationship sector Venus is retrograding back, with a gap between all 3 closing. With the Sun and Mercury showing the way forward and Venus holding the door open to the past and second chances, you’re getting a clear sense of where you’ve been and where you’re going.
Capricorn
While Jupiter will leave your romantic sector in 13 days time, with Mercury just 8 days away from your relationship sector there’ll not only be a lap over, but a chance to channel any romantic energy into your relationships. That’s more important than you realise, with a need to already be looking ahead on both the romantic and relationship fronts and on how to bring the two together.
Aquarius
Because the Sun and Mercury are moving forward in your romantic sector they are focused on the road ahead, while in retrograde motion Venus is focused on the past and the road behind. Over the course of the next 7 days this will all come together and with the past merging into the future and the future merging into the past, the lines are becoming blurred.
Pisces
As the Moon wraps up his penultimate visit to your relationship sector before Mars leaves, he’ll be looking to push whatever buttons or get whatever emotional responses are needed to come out fighting. This is all about getting you to give a damn, with no reaction a wrong or bad one, so long as you’re feeling something.
Your Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope for May 25 – 27
by Jeff Jawer
Hearts Take Center StageMay 25 – 27 |
It’s showtime this weekend, and the curtain goes up when the Moon dances into dramatic Leo early on Friday evening. This is a time to express your creativity and your feelings without restraint. It’s definitely more interesting to go too far than to play it safe and hold back emotions. Indulging in a little fantasy is perfect as communicative Mercury crosses paths with imaginative Neptune. Reality takes a temporary backseat to living in the moment without concern for what tomorrow will bring. It’s like Las Vegas is everywhere and everyone can leave behind adult responsibilities to play with heartfelt abandon. Of course, you shouldn’t take what you hear or say too seriously in these ungrounded circumstances.
Dressing to impress on Saturday, almost as if you’re a performer, puts stars in peoples’ eyes and smiles on their faces. Being generous is a wonderful way to please a partner, so open your heart and wallet to make this a special time. Making memories is more important than saving money or saving face. The more love and affection that’s given, the more you’ll get back in return.
This joyous influence continues until late Sunday night when the Moon moves into pragmatic Virgo and minds shift away from play and toward the workweek that lies ahead.
Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 22nd
Aries
With not much support on the communication front and that support actively working to enhance second chances on the relationship front, you almost can’t fail. So long as you’re willing to do whatever it takes to ensure that the communication lines are open and that you’re listening as well as talking, things will take on a life of their own.
Taurus
Mars, planet of passion passed his final roadblock last week and with any pressures and challenges behind you a new sense of confidence is emerging. With Mars not leaving your romantic sector until early July you have plenty of time to make up for lost time and to let your romantic passions take the lead.
Gemini
The first full day of your new solar year, one that even in its early hours looks anything but an ordinary run around the block, is also the last full day of an alliance between Venus, planet of love in your sign and Saturn, in retrograde motion in your romantic sector. With the door now open to your future, but your romantic focus on the past, you’re able to see both with equal clarity.
Cancer
Having the Sun in a nostalgic part of your chart has been a game changer, with the cosmic spotlight now directed onto the road behind. With Venus, planet of love in retrograde motion here and Pluto in retrograde motion in your relationship sector, they’re no longer operating in the dark, making any potential second chances easier to spot.
Leo
With no planetary activity in either of your romantic or relationship sectors, overwhelming professional forces haven’t met much resistance. But if the scales have been balanced too far towards your professional life they have already begun to shift, with both new doors and the door to second chances now open in a social and serendipitous part of your chart.
Virgo
Since returning to your relationship sector in February Neptune, planet of dreams and fantasies has been standing back as personal and relationship challenges played out, all the while bringing a sense that anything was possible. Due to turn retrograde in just 2 weeks time, Neptune gives you a chance to slow down and engage your imagination.
Libra
As Venus, planet of love spends her first full week in retrograde motion in an adventurous part of your chart, she has support on all sides. With the Sun spending his first full day here as well, life as a whole is taking on more colourful dynamics. With the seriousness of recent months behind you, it’s time to have some fun.
Scorpio
With the Sun already gone from your relationship sector, Mercury leaving in just 2 days time and even Jupiter in just 3 weeks time, you’re now in the end game, where it’s all about putting your relationships on the path you want them to continue on. While your relationships are still a priority they won’t be for much longer, so getting things on track is essential.
Sagittarius
Where yesterday’s solar eclipse in your relationship sector and the new doors this opened may have taken you by surprise, you have a chance today to adjust. One of the biggest adjustments is how to focus this with Venus, planet of love’s first full week in retrograde motion in your relationship sector and the doors to second chances this has opened.
Capricorn
With the Sun and Moon gone from your romantic sector, Mercury leaving in 2 days time and Jupiter in just 3 weeks time, a journey that began in June 2011 is coming to an end. That journey is to bring your romantic expectations and experiences up to speed and your love life on the track you want it to continue on, with a new sense of urgency setting in.
Aquarius
At the same time that yesterday’s solar eclipse in your romantic sector has opened the door to new beginnings, with Venus spending her first full week in retrograde motion here the door is also open to second chances. You have so much romantic clout and for so long that you don’t have to pick and choose which to go after, with anything possible.
Pisces
You’re now in the final weeks of a major mission to bring your communications up to speed, something that your relationships will rely on moving forward, with a need to make every effort you can now to ensure that the communication lines are open. You’ve come too far to be tripped up now by unsaid words.
Your Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 18
Aries
The fact that the Moon, moving through your sign, is putting direct pressure on Saturn and your relationships, creating some relationship pressure and pushing some buttons, might actually work to your advantage. For with the doors now open to second chances, this creates the right push at the right time.
Taurus
While you’re not out of the woods yet, pressure on Mars and your romantic situation has now peaked and from this point on will begin to ease. As this was the final hurdle you had to face and there was never any avoiding this, nurture a growing sense of confidence that the light at the end of the tunnel isn’t an illusion.
Gemini
On the romantic front the focus is now exclusively on the past, with the door remaining open to second chances until later next month. Venus, planet of love will remain in retrograde motion in your sign for the next 72 days, giving you time to take a leisurely stroll down love’s memory lane and to explore the past at your own pace.
Cancer
There is always more than one version of reality and that’s especially so when it comes to your perception of the past. As you work to tie up loose ends on any work/life balance issues, look to the past for guidance, taking responsibility for acknowledging what your relationships and love life need from you.
Leo
While you have no planetary activity in your relationship sector, the planet that will kick things off for the year when he returns next month is Mercury, planet of communication. While you can’t make that happen any sooner you can get a jump on things by working now to ensure that the communication lines are open.
Virgo
There is likely to be a sense of relief in the air today, for while there may still be some relationship pressure or tension the worst is behind you. It was yesterday that pressure between Mars in your sign and Chiron in your relationship sector peaked, with a chance now to focus on the healing and the opportunity for a breakthrough this has created.
Libra
Don’t be surprised or alarmed if there is some relationship intensity or even pressure today, as the Moon works to push as many buttons before leaving. The more you can get things out in the open the better, with the Moon evoking emotional responses aimed at getting your attention and alerting you to where you need to pay attention.
Scorpio
Urgency and even intensity on the romantic front begins easing back from today, as you realise that there is no urgency and that you really can’t hurry love. On the relationship front things are very different with a new sense of urgency setting in, especially when it comes to taking responsibility, realising that you can’t get back what you don’t put in.
Sagittarius
In his final hours in your romantic sector the Moon is working to give you an intuitive read on your heart, that you’re able to hold onto after he’s gone. This is the Moon’s first visit to your romantic sector since the main planetary thrust for the year ended, leaving you with an intuitive sense of where to from here.
Capricorn
You’re in a transition period, between a romantically charged period that is about to run its course and a more professionally charged period that will eventually take over. Already these are starting to overlap, with a need to be really vigilant when it comes to finding the right work/life balance and the right balance between work and play.
Aquarius
In just 3 days time both the Sun and Moon will return to your romantic sector, aligning to form a solar eclipse that will open the door to some major new beginnings. Until then make the most of the fact that Venus, the only planet currently in your romantic sector, is in retrograde motion, with the door to the past and second chances now wide open.
Pisces
While there is still likely to be some relationship pressure and intensity, it has already peaked and you should be feeling it ease back, enough anyway to see what lies behind it. This was the last hurdle you needed to cross, with a chance today to get inside anything that’s pushing your buttons and use this as a chance for both healing and a breakthrough.
Your Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 16th
Aries
Today marks a turning point with Venus, planet of love turning retrograde in your communication sector, spending the next 73 days working to give your heart and unsaid words a voice. While other more practical forces will soon focus on opening the communication lines in general, Venus is more focused on your relationships.
Taurus
It was just over a month ago that Mars, planet of passion turned direct in your romantic sector, ending his retrograde phase but today Venus, planet of love turns retrograde. With the path to second chances already clearly marked, but with your romantic passions now directed to the future, this gives you the best of both worlds, with the door open to second chances and new beginnings.
Gemini
Today represents both a turning point on the romantic front, but also a reinforcement of something already in play. With Saturn in retrograde motion in your romantic sector since February you’re already on a trip down love’s memory lane but as Venus, planet of love turns retrograde in your sign the focus on the past intensifies.
Cancer
On the same day that Venus, planet of love turns retrograde in an already nostalgic part of your chart, you have the right amount of support and pressure on the communication front. While there may be some communication challenges, it’s on the relationship front that there is a chance for a breakthrough and for some healing.
Leo
Even though it may appear that nothing much is happening on the romantic front, what is building beneath the surface and behind the scenes is due to come to a head during a lunar eclipse in your romantic sector early next month. Until then choose to see love as a journey rather than a race to the finishing line.
Virgo
Just as you reach what should be a high pressure time on the relationship front, you’re likely to find that while the pressure is there that the anticipated reactions aren’t. For just as relationship pressure begins to peak support floods in from Pluto in your romantic sector, giving you the confidence to see this as the opportunity it is.
Libra
A week to the day since Mercury left your relationship sector, wrapping up an active 3 months on the relationship front, the Moon returns in what is a case of perfect timing. You’ve had a week to let things settle but it hasn’t been so long that you’ve forgotten what you’re striving for, with a chance today to tap back into what really matters.
Scorpio
While there may be some tension in the air today with Venus, planet of love turning retrograde in a passionate part of your chart, there is also an opportunity for a change of heart or for second chances. The love gods are battling for your attention, with romantic and relationship forces fighting to be heard, with a need to slow down and stay in the moment.
Sagittarius
The love gods are out in full today for just as Venus, planet of love turns retrograde in your relationship sector the Moon returns to your romantic sector, ensuring that you have an intuitive read on your heart as the tide turns. As Venus opens the door to second chances on the relationship front the spirit of romance is alive and well.
Capricorn
It was just a week ago today that Mercury, planet of communication returned to your romantic sector and for the first time since 2000 encountered Jupiter, planet of luck. You’re now in the end game in terms of turning romantic desires into reality or at least putting love on the right path, with a need to believe in love and in yourself.
Aquarius
Today represents a real turning point on the romantic front, one of many you’ll encounter over the coming weeks. It’s today that Venus, planet of love turns retrograde, beginning a 73 day trip down love’s memory lane that will open the door to second chances and a chance to make up for lost time.
Pisces
Mars, planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos finds himself in a curious situation today. Coming into his own in your relationship sector he’s coming under pressure, creating some relationship tension, but within that tension is a sense that this creates an opportunity for a breakthrough, with some real healing and resolution possible.
How many members of your sign does it take to change a light bulb?
How many members of your sign does it take to change a light bulb?
Aries: Just one. You want to make something of it?
Taurus: One, but just “try” to convince them that the burned-out bulb is useless and should be thrown away.
Gemini: Two, but the job never gets done — they just keep arguing about who is supposed to do it and how it’s supposed to be done.
Cancer: Just one. But it takes a therapist three years to help them through the grief process.
Leo: Leo’s don’t change light bulbs, although sometimes their agent will get a Virgo in to do the job for them while they’re out.
Virgo: Approximately 1.000000000000000000 with an error of 1 millionth.
Libra: Er, two. Or maybe one. No — on second thought, make that two. Is that okay with you?
Scorpio: That information is strictly secret and shared only with the Enlightened Ones in the Star Chamber of the Ancient Hierarchical Order.
Sagittarius: The sun in shining, the day is young, we’ve got our whole lives ahead of us, and you’re inside worrying about a stupid burned-out light bulb?
Capricorn: I don’t waste my time with these childish jokes.
Aquarius: Well, you have to remember that everything is energy, so…..
Pisces: Light bulb? What light bulb?
Daily Cosmic Calendar for Jan. 12th
To get to today’s fortunate vibrations, hang in there and keep the faith. First of all, a void lunar cycle in Leo begins when the Moon opposes sometimes chaotic and unreliable Neptune (12:25AM PST). By 1:45AM PST, the void lunar uncertainty zone ends when the Moon enters meticulous and industrious Virgo. Over the next 2+ days, it is wise to shape-shift into being the efficiency master and supreme organizer across the board. Helping you cover all bases is a grand triangle in earth signs as the Moon in Virgo trines Jupiter in Taurus (3:19AM PST) while the Moon moves on to make additional harmonious trines to Mercury (1:34PM PST) and Pluto (3:12PM PST) – both of which are in Capricorn. Stay on track to reach a new career summit or develop new entrepreneurial talents. Putting you over the top is this evening’s vitalizing Sun-Mars flowing trine in earth signs (8:47PM PST). Athletics, exercise routines and construction projects receive reinforcement. Enhance your leadership credentials. It’s not every day when a grand triangle arranged by the Moon happens along with a trine including the solar orb and red planet. Get set for potential psychic and emotional fireworks tomorrow morning as Mercury joins forces with Pluto while Venus becomes cozy with Neptune.
The Sexiest Zodiac Signs
The Sexiest Zodiac Signs
- Mel, selected from DivineCaroline
I’ve always had great luck with Capricorns. Tauruses? Yawn. Geminis? Maybe, if you like all that talking. Leos? Self-absorbed drama queens. My romantic history is a constellation of personalities and capabilities and experiences, but there’s obviously something about my Virgo sensibilities that jibes with the patience that the average Capricorn bestows upon the act of tossing a girl’s salad. Or did you think I was talking about something else? We’re not interested in love matches here, people. This is all about that other kind of chemistry and which signs of the Zodiac are guaranteed to be a good time and which might be a great time.
Aries: The Minute Man
This fire sign is known for being a pretty straight shooter. Aries will have no compunction at all about sharing his or her raunchiest ideas about what to do in the sack. The problem with straight shooters, though, is that they always like to get right to the point. So count on an Aries to take charge and get you where you want to go—in a hurry.
Taurus: The Romancer
Where Aries is all lusty impulse, Taurus takes his or her time. Plan on being wined and dined, perhaps to the point of frustration. And once the Taurus has decided you’re the one for the job, prepare yourself for plenty of foreplay. If romance is your thing, Taurus is your sign.
Gemini: The Talker
The Gemini will bring all his or her intellect to bear upon getting bare. If you have simpler, quieter tastes, you might be a little shocked by Gemini’s saucy, seductive monologues. But if phone sex and dirty talking gets your motor humming, a Gemini is what you’re looking for. But be prepared to not get a word in edgewise.
Cancer: The Love Maker
Cancers are highly emotional signs, which means that sex is not merely a mechanical physical undertaking; rather it is expected to be a poetic act of beauty and love and all that good stuff. If you’re going to get naked with a Cancer, prepare yourself for an intense ride. And perhaps some post-coital crying.
Leo: The Narcissist
The passionate and adventurous nature of the Leo cannot be surpassed. There is no end to the imaginative ways a Leo will come up with for you to pleasure him or her. Those cats are born sexual dominants who ooze lusty confidence, and they’re unapologetic about it. While your romp with the lion will be memorable, for sure, best remember your satisfaction will be a secondary matter.
Virgo: The Closet Nympho
You might be surprised to learn that shy, demurring Virgo would ever be ready to rock without than fistfuls of condoms and spanking clean bed sheets. The reserved demeanor of the earthy virgins doesn’t hint at their inner lustiness. Once your Virgo knows and trusts you, watch out. You won’t get a moment’s peace.
Libra: The Connoisseur
The Libra is an artiste when it comes to knocking boots. They seek out a perfect harmony with their partner, luxuriating in every detail, and they go big on romantic accoutrements such as lingerie, massage oil, and soft music. You know, so it’s just like a bad porno—perhaps it even includes a fortuitously timed visit from the pizza guy.
Scorpio: The Leg-Humper
Fiery, licentious Scropio is the horn dog of the zodiac. While their sexual prowess and magnetism can hardly be ignored, getting in bed with a scorpion can have its sting. While you will probably get the ride of your life, Scorpio’s love ’em and leave ’em approach to sex could leave less lusty signs cold.
Sagittarius: The Don Juan (or Juanita)
A master of the art of seduction, a Sagittarius is all about the hunt. They hone their powers of seduction, pouncing upon their objects of desire only after rendering them utterly helpless in the face of their sexual deftness.
Capricorn: The Slow Boat
Capricorn can come across as a lumbering kind of lover. Slow to make the first move, patient to the point of impertinence once the ball does get rolling, Caps may not wow with skill and energy in the sack, but they will steadily, diligently apply themselves to the all-you-can-eat buffet of their lover. Be patient with a Capricorn, and you will be well rewarded.
Aquarius: The Toy Collector
If you’re someone who is put off by the idea of a velvet box full of scintillating, slippery, and battery-operated accoutrements under your lover’s bed, it’s best you steer clear of Aquarius. Always ready to experiment with any number of the paths to pleasing themselves and their partners, the Aquarian will bring more to the party than some signs can take.
Pisces: Old Faithful
Much like Cancer, Pisces will value the emotional connectivity of sex over the physical one. Passion, love, attention, patience—these will all come into play with your Pisces lover. But you’ll likely have to do most of the work. The fish are notoriously lazy lays, preferring to kick back and bask in the attentions of their beloved. Might want to take a cue from Aquarius and bring some party favors to keep things interesting.

Cosmic Calendar for December 15th
Last night’s Mars-Saturn contra-parallel has some staying power and can give you the creeps, so-to-speak. Any time the two traditional malefic planets combine their influence, the urge to be rash and to control may form a diabolical configuration. However, coming to a partial rescue is a Moon-Jupiter parallel (1:07AM PST). Similar to a zodiacal union between the lunar orb and the largest planet, this Moon-Jupiter rapport gives you feelings of self-confidence and enthusiasm. Adding to the morning upbeat vibrations is a Sun-Moon trine in fire signs as the two lights form their 120-degree connection from Sagittarius to Leo at 8:07AM PST. Unleash your creative skills in an unusual artistic medium or play a favorite musical instrument with flair. Watch out for rising volatility around the time of a Moon-Mars parallel (12:46PM PST). Later on, confusion may be engulfing a key partnership as the Moon in Leo makes its monthly opposition to Neptune in Aquarius (5:21PM PST). Haziness on your part won’t help the situation. Fortunately, this Moon-Neptune polarity – which starts a void lunar cycle lasting until 8:00PM PST – won’t remain influential for more than a couple of hours. By the time the Moon enters industrious and meticulous Virgo at 8:00PM PST, you can now focus attention on the small details in life that either sustain your prodigious efforts or send you off on wild-goose chases for answers to subtle problems. Stock up on cereals, grains, tea, herbs, vitamins, supplements, nuts, seeds and seasonings as the Moon in Virgo trines Jupiter in Taurus (8:56PM PST). Literary and educational pursuits are reinforced. Be prepared for some new cosmic shenanigans on Friday as Mars locks horns with Jupiter while Vesta finds comfort in Neptune’s embrace.

Cosmic Calendar for Friday, November 18th
Forewarned is forearmed! So goes an ancient astrological saying. Yesterday, in this calendar, a warning appeared that starting today the universe would stop playing the role of Mr. Nice Guy. Instead, we have a more brutish cosmic scene on our hands as the Last Quarter Sun-Moon Phase occurs (activating 26 degrees of Scorpio and Leo at 7:10AM PST), a void lunar cycle develops from 11:06AM PST to 2:20PM PST (when Virgo Moon begins), a potentially provocative and discordant Sun-Pluto parallel (1:26PM PST) occurs inside the void time-period, and – for good measure – the Moon makes its monthly, highly-charged union with Mars in Virgo (9:13PM PST). Combining this quartet of stellar happenings, it is clear that you need to be very cautious and careful across the board during this 24-hour time-span. Fortunately, pockets of positivity on the investment, literary and educational fronts are present as Mercury forms a supportive, 60-degree link to Vesta (5:34PM PST) while the Moon in Virgo trines Jupiter in Taurus (6:51PM PST). Nevertheless, when the two lights contact Mars and Pluto on the same day, it is highly likely that sparks will be flying in a wide variety of venues and realms of experience. If you want to avoid angry fallout and the wrath of relatives and loved ones – whether deserved or undeserved – do your best to be the picture of human kindness in all your social and familial interactions today.
Cosmic Calendar for Monday, November 14th
Compared to next week, this week’s cosmic alignments appear to be fairly tame for the most part. However, you still need to move through a Mars-Neptune contra-parallel that happens early today (12:59AM PST). A week ago, these two planets opposed each other from Leo to Aquarius in the zodiac. Now they are 12+ degrees north (Mars) and 12+ degrees south (Neptune) of the Celestial Equator. And when planets make this kind of contact – on either side of the Celestial Equator – they are said to be in a contra-parallel connection (somewhat similar to a zodiacal opposition in effect). The bottom line is that a mischief-maker vibe is now present in primary partnerships. Lashing out in anger at a well-meaning loved one, associate or friend is a no-no. Restrain yourself from making harsh remarks that will quickly come back to haunt you. In addition, strive for clarity in discussions and correspondence. The red planet mingling its energy-field with far-out, dreamy Neptune can equate with a rising tide of confusion and nebulosity. Plus – this Mars-Neptune confrontation may stay influential for much of the day. On the lunar front, you are in better shape as the Moon transits Cancer – stimulating the urge to cook, bake and conduct home clean-up campaigns. Don’t be surprised if a wave of nostalgia strikes and you feel determined to learn more about your ancestral tree. Helping you expand your consciousness along numerous horizons is a supportive, 60-degree link from the Moon to Jupiter (5:23AM PST). Put the power of positive thinking to practical use.
Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for October 21 – 23
by Jeff Jawer
Playful but PracticalOctober 21 – 23 |
Hearts open and heads swell with the Moon in self-important Leo on Friday. Confidence is likely to rise as we’re empowered by a belief in ourselves that encourages risk-taking in relationships. Dramatic gestures are par for Leo’s course, but even more so now because of the Sun’s harmonious alignment with mystical Neptune. This event casts a gauzy aura of mystery and magic over Friday night, which can be very entertaining but hardly representative of lasting reality. Attractions arise easily in this misty atmosphere where reason and common sense may be hard to find. But turning an initial interest into a lasting flame of love will require more than one romantic evening.
Saturday brings a more scrutinizing perspective with a lunar transit into pragmatic Virgo. This analytical Earth sign isn’t into vague promises, laziness and sloppy behavior. Romance and productivity go together in practical Virgo, making this a perfect time to tackle tasks with a willing partner. Developing skills is another positive way to make use of this lunar transit, so taking a class or seminar can be a good way to meet someone or infuse new interest in an ongoing relationship. Virgo’s critical eye, though, tends to spot the tiniest flaws but, obviously, obsessing about them is to be avoided.
