Daily Cosmic Calendar for Monday, February 18th

Think pleasant thoughts as this Monday gets underway. Fortunately, Venus in a harmonious trine with Ceres (2:11AM PST) can build up your productivity across the board while the monthly Moon-Jupiter union in Gemini (3:56AM PST) brings out your happy-go-lucky demeanor.  A main change surrounds the shift of the Sun from airy Aquarius to watery Pisces (4:03AM PST). Watch your dreams for visions of the great beyond as well as dialing into the future via the little used faculty of precognition. Every so often, a lucid dream will provide a panoramic view of the future ahead of time.  You may have more tangible things to deal with a few hours later when Saturn at 12 degrees of Scorpio becomes stationary (9:03AM PST) from the Earth’s vantage point and begins moving retrograde until July 7. All Saturn themes — hard work and responsibility, perseverance and dedication, focus, structure, logic, common sense, profession, business acumen, CEO leadership, the father principle, delays, frustrations, limits, pessimism, depression, fears and old karma — are accentuated throughout the day. Strive to tap into the most prominent and helpful of the Saturn archetypes in order to have a very fulfilling day. Helping you do this is the monthly lunar union with Vesta in Gemini (1:34PM PST). Investments can increase in value if you are very careful — despite the strong presence of Saturn in the cosmic ethers today.  Social activities and love bonds may experience unpredictable short-circuiting due to a frictional, 45-degree link from Venus to Uranus (9:38PM PST).

Looking for love? Now that the Sun is out again after a long, dreary winter it’s time to open your heart and see what the stars have in store for your romantic life. This spring we’ll have plenty of cosmic cooperation to help you out. Venus and Mars — the planets of love and desire — will move along the zodiac at a pace that offers plenty of opportunity for your heart to soar. It’s also Eclipse season! For some signs, that means life altering changes in the romance department. So go ahead, read all about your sign’s spring love forecast. It’s time to smile because the Sun is out and love is in the air!

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

Your sign kicks off the Spring Equinox which automatically makes you extra favored in all things now — especially love!  Not only are you feeling more confident and vibrant, you can be sure that there will be plenty of romantic opportunities in store as spring opens up. From March 21-April 14 you’re simply gorgeous! Venus will grace your sign during these weeks offering you plenty of seductive glow. In addition, Mars will be in your sign until April 20 adding even more sex appeal. Your powers of attraction will be off the charts during these weeks!

Be sure to schedule a fun filled weekend on April 5-7 because whether you’re single or attached, the sizzling conjunction of Venus to Mars will leave you breathless. If you’re married, there might be a glitch in your relationship to work out during the nasty Full Moon in Libra on March 27. If you run into problems at this time but want to salvage the relationship, be sure to schedule a couples retreat the weekend of April 5-7. The make-up sex alone will heal you both!

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Taurus, you’re the sign responsible for sustaining the beauty spring contains. This year, you’ll be happy to know that when the flowers around you begin to bloom, so will your best romantic potential! Venus, your ruling planet of love, will enter your sign on April 15-May 9 and during this time your sensual charms will be off the charts! In addition to this, Mars, the planet of desire, will be in your sign from April 20-May 31. Although these two planets will play “hard to get” with each other, and never form an exact conjunction in the sky, you will certainly benefit from the mouthwatering love bites they’ll offer. If you’re attached however, there may be a few bumps in the relationship department this spring. On April 22 Venus will oppose Saturn, the planet of restriction and limits which is now in your 7th House of Committed Partnership.

There might be a test in your marriage — particularly if you aren’t feeling appreciated and adored from your mate. A Lunar Eclipse in your 7th house on April 25 will pick up on this theme. If there’s a weak link in your relationship, this Eclipse may prompt a break. If this happens try not to fret … a gorgeous Solar Eclipse in your sign on May 9 spells new beginnings everywhere!

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

Although your sign is in its glory at the tail end of spring, this certainly doesn’t mean you’ll feel left out of the spring love club this year. In fact, in some ways the universe may have saved the best for last! First however, you’ll need to get through an icky Full Moon in Libra on March 27. If you’re single then it might be a time you feel sorry for yourself more than usual about your single status. If you’re dating someone, this lunation will present a tough blow to your love fest. A break is possible — especially if issues of trust and personal space crop up. Not to worry though, because the planets are sure to align in your favor by late spring. In fact, on May 9 and until June 2, Venus will be in your sign giving you the “fairest one of all” award. Also, from May 31-June 13 Mars will be in your sign as well — giving you all the ambition you need to pursue who you desire. On May 28 Venus and Jupiter embrace in your sign and you know what that means? Yummylicious romance! If you’re married or in a serious relationship, then you can expect a turning point at the Lunar Eclipse on May 25. This Eclipse will fall in your 7th House of Committed Partnerships and if you’ve been blinded by love it’s possible that now, your blind spot will be exposed. On the other hand, if you know that by now you’re living a real life romantic fairytale, then it’s possible you and your mate will deepen your commitment.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Although Saturn, the planet of tests and limitation, is now fully entrenched in your 5th House of True Love, don’t automatically think that your spring is doomed to a dry spell. Instead, think of this as spring training for your heart. Admittedly, March 22 might be a difficult day to navigate since Venus will oppose Saturn. A friend may show marked disapproval for someone you’ve got your sights on. In the end, you’ll need to make the call and be true to yourself. But first, take your friend’s point into consideration … is this person really good enough for you?

A Lunar Eclipse on March 25 in your 5th house might force you to take pause and give serious consideration in matters of the heart. You don’t just want to give your love away; you want it to be earned by someone who deserves it. From June 2-26 you’ll have plenty of magnetism thanks to Venus touring your sign. Love potential will be stimulated on June 7 when Venus forms a friendly link to Saturn in your 5th house. This will be your weekend to take a chance on love!

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)

Although romance might not by your primary focus this spring, you’ll have your fair share of action in the love department. The main event for you, by far, will be the Lunar Eclipse on May 25. This Eclipse will fall in your 5th House of True Love and you can expect illumination when it comes to your feelings for someone special. There’s a heavy dose of Neptunian energy around this Eclipse and it’s possible that you’ll think you’re only fooling yourself that this couldn’t possibly be love. Think again. This Eclipse will provide a turning point for you where you may consider entering into a relationship with someone you didn’t see clearly in the past. You might still feel confused as you begin the relationship. However, you will have him or her on a pedestal for now and will be willing to give your new partner the benefit of the doubt.

If you’re attached, it’s possible that your feelings for this person will deepen and those beautiful “I love yous” will be exchanged for the very first time. With Venus and Jupiter embracing days later on May 28 in your 11th House of Love Received, you will be more open to love this week than any other time this spring. Go ahead, fall in love. Your heart is ready.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)

This spring, love can definitely feel like “Some Kind of Wonderful” thanks to a few gorgeous links to Neptune, now in your 7th House of Partnership. But first, don’t forget to mark your calendar for the weekend of April 5-7 since a sexy conjunction of Venus to Mars in your 8th House of Deep Intimacy may prove to be quite titillating! After Venus enters Taurus, she’ll connect beautifully to Neptune — on April 18. This will be your day for inspirational love. You and your sweetheart may decide to take a spiritual or romantic retreat together — and it could involve long distance travel!

When Mars connects to Neptune on April 26 you’ll have no trouble sharing your deepest fantasies with your mate. Love may somehow connect to your career on May 28 as Venus and Jupiter embrace in your professional 10th house. Then, on June 7 you might be certain you’ve found your soul mate thanks to an enchanting link between Venus and Neptune. Still, love is not without its struggles and one may erupt on June 11 as Venus opposes Pluto, the planet of obsession and control, now in your 5th House of True Love. Remember, your heart needs to trust in order to surrender to the deep, life altering potential love can provide. Are you ready?

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)

Ouch! You might start off the spring with a bruise to your heart. On March 27, a tense Full Moon will fall in your sign. Since it’ll be emotionally charged, it’s possible that you and a loved one will part ways. Remember Libra, you have the unique lesson of learning how to relate while also trying to keep your identity in the process. If you’ve been giving yourself away too much for the sake of a relationship, then this lunation may bring it to a crashing end. Still, don’t lose hope! Venus and Mars will tour your 7th House of Partnership for the early weeks of spring, making it possible for you and your mate to enjoy a heated argument followed by delicious make up sex. March 21-April 14 are your best days to enjoy harmony with a partner — if you manage to survive the vicious Full Moon.

Whenever Venus graces your partnership sector it will encourage you to make peace with your mate. Unfortunately, Mars will be there to stir the pot as well. From March 12-April 20 there may not be a shortage of argument. The good news is that you can also be sure that there will be plenty of passion to go along with the bickering. In fact, if you and your sweetie pie can take the weekend of April 5-7 to go off on a romantic getaway, the time together may remind you why you fell in love in the first place.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

You and your opposite sign Taurus are leading stars in this Spring Eclipse showdown which means there are likely to be major changes in the landscape of a personal relationship. With Saturn in your sign, you may feel a strong urge to get serious about what you want personally and with a partner. On April 25, a Lunar Eclipse in your sign closely connected to Saturn will be a wakeup call. Is a relationship moving in the direction that you hoped for? Or are you the one pulling all the weight in what is supposed to be a twosome? You’ll have your answer under the light of this Full Moon Eclipse. Fortunately, a new beginning is possible for you and your mate since two weeks later a New Moon Solar Eclipse will fall in your 7th House of Partnership on May 9. It’s definitely time to do some spring cleaning in your relationship life and once you honestly examine those cobwebs and dust them away, you may find enormous potential for romantic bliss. With Venus in your 7th house from April 15-May 9 you’ll have the perfect amount of cosmic support to believe that in the end, love will prevail.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

Your heart is on fire this spring! If you’re single then you can certainly expect love to come knocking on your door. If you’re attached, then expect sparks to fly again between you and your honey. Venus, the planet of love, will be in your 5th House of Romance from March 21-April 15. This is an incredible cycle for pleasure and amore! As if that wasn’t good enough, Mars, the planet of desire, will be the same area of your chart from March 12-April 20. If this doesn’t wake up your libido, nothing will! The cosmic lovers connected in your house of love and sex is a rare treat indeed so be sure to indulge. March 28 is a day love can arrive in the most unexpected and exciting way thanks to a perfect link between Venus and electrifying Uranus.

Also, mark your calendar for the weekend of April 5-7 when these two planets will tangle up in a passionate embrace. You simply must make the most of this energy. Plan a first date, or a romantic encounter with your lover. It’ll be hot, hot, hot! In addition to all of this fiery, passionate energy, a Lunar Eclipse will fall in your sign on May 25. This will bring complete illumination about a vital relationship matter. You’ll know whether or not you’ve been kissing a frog and you’ll act accordingly. Fortunately, a gorgeous embrace between Venus and Jupiter on May 28 in your 7th House of Partnership is a positive indicator that in the end, love is all you need!

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

This spring, it seems as if almost every sign has their shot at romance. While you might have felt cheated over the winter in the love department, the season has changed … and guess what? Love is in the air! You’ll notice a major shift once Venus enters your 5th House of Romance on April 15. Until May 9 you’ll have plenty of admirers and if you’re single, at least one of them may capture your attention. In fact, on April 24 Venus will link up perfectly to Pluto, now in your sign. This could bring a fated love connection your way. You know — the kind that makes you love drunk and all tingly inside. Yep, it could happen! You see this spring, when it comes to your usual love mojo, all bets are off. You might usually be slow to give your heart away. However, this spring that tendency might change. Mars will also be in your romance sector from April 20-May 31 which will help speed up any love connection you make while Venus was there. As if that weren’t enough to get your heart open, a potent Solar Eclipse will fall in your 5th House of True Love on May 9. Oh yeah … love is definitely in your spring forecast!

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

It seems as if every sign will get a turn at the game of love this spring … and you are no exception! Your time may arrive later than the other signs but that’s ok — all good things come to those who wait. In your case, love planet Venus will enter your 5th House of Romance on May 9 and will remain there until June 2, giving you plenty of cosmic support if you’re single and looking for love.

If you’re attached, you and your mate could decide to have a baby and you might even conceive one during the spring months. Not only will Venus adorn the 5th house of your chart, but you’ll also be at the tail end of a one year transit of lucky Jupiter touring the same house. In fact, both Venus and Jupiter will embrace in the most blessed of aspects on May 28 so if there was ever a day you can count on winning the jackpot of love, this will be it! Sexy Mars will join the 5th house party on May 31 and will remain here well into Summer which assures you of a once in two year opportunity to enjoy all of the pleasures life has to offer — whether it’s on dance floor or in the bedroom!

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)

Are you looking for love? Well this spring you’ll begin a fantastic cycle that promises plenty of opportunity for heart felt smooches with someone special. In your case, the main event will begin later than most, however you will not be disappointed once love comes knocking on your door.  Mark your calendar for June 3 because this is when the magic begins! Venus, the planet of love and harmony, will enter your 5th House of Romance on this day. First, she’ll make a gorgeous trine to Neptune and Saturn on June 7 making this your five star day — make that weekend — for love! You might fall under a love spell and if so, you’ll feel a deep, emotional and spiritual connection with your prince or princess.

There will be a tense day in love matters on June 11 when Venus opposes Pluto, and it’s possible that you’ll feel overly obsessed with your lover on this day. Just try not to turn it into a ‘Fatal Attraction’ moment and you’ll be fine! June 12 is another day to watch out for because Venus will rub elbows with Uranus and there might be a sudden break up or a sudden affair that comes your way. Either way, a spring that might be slow to warm up when it comes to romance will end on an extremely sizzling note. Enjoy!

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Sunday, February 17th

Take a look back at some of your accomplishments of the last 30 days as the Sun is concluding its stay in Aquarius while preparing to enter Pisces tomorrow morning. Have you joined forces with like-minded souls on group projects, community events, team sports and global initiatives close to your heart and philosophy of life? If not, you may want to remember these themes when Solar Aquarius comes around next year.  In the meantime, troubles may be brewing during the First Quarter Sun-Moon Phase (energizing 30 degrees of Aquarius and Taurus at 12:32PM PST). There is a need to cut through problems on physical and emotional levels, and hurdle over obstacles to the best of your ability. Manage your business affairs with greater aplomb and finesse. However, the moment of the Last Quarter Phase (12:32PM PST) also starts a short void-of-course Moon cycle that lasts until 1:51PM PST. During this somewhat weakened lunar condition, Vesta makes an off-kilter, 150-degree link to Saturn (12:57PM PST). Say no to investment planning for the time-being.  Once the Moon is safely located in airy Gemini (1:51PM PST), there is a renewed urge to read, write and enjoy lighthearted hobbies. Take a time-out for a whirlpool treatment, massage or hot-tub session as Mercury parallels Chiron (8:04PM PST). Healing forces regain their momentum throughout the evening.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, February 12th

We need to acknowledge our dreams as future possibilities today with the Moon and four other planets in visionary Pisces. But we can bring our fantasies down to earth now as clever Mercury forms a fluid trine with ambitious Saturn, coloring our thoughts with a more serious tone. Our powers of concentration are strong, making this an ideal time to finish a project before we get distracted by the Moon’s shift into impulsive Aries at 8:51 pm EST.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your intuition may be operating on overdrive today; however, don’t trust every notion that pops into your head. It’s difficult to separate your valid thoughts from the ambient noise since you are particularly sensitive to your own fantasies now. Run each of your ideas through your own logical analysis before acting on any of them. Exercising a little discrimination ensures that your actions will be based on clear thinking rather than emotional bias.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Others seem to accept your authority now without much resistance. Ironically, you might not feel as if you’re doing anything differently. Nevertheless, something has changed. It’s as if you passed a test that you didn’t even know you took. Don’t push your luck by suggesting a crazy idea or you could quickly lose your hard-earned credibility. Steadfast determination and a sustainable pace are your friends in the long run.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

The current emphasis is more on what’s occurring in your outer life than what’s going on within your imagination. Externalize your thoughts through direct action. Put your sound ideas to good use by organizing a project at work. Take control by managing the information at your disposal. Thankfully, your mind is functioning on a very practical level now, so a sincere effort goes a long way toward improving the working order of your life.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You may feel a bit disconnected today as you walk away from a difficult situation. It’s not that you are apathetic or discouraged; instead, you believe that you can be more effective if you don’t let your feelings interfere with your actions in the outer world now. But don’t lose touch with what’s in your heart, for your emotions continue to fuel your dreams no matter what else is going on.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Go ahead and share your concerns with others today, even if you’re uncharacteristically serious. You don’t need to pretend that all is fun and games. However, there’s no reason to wait until you’re on center stage to be who you want to be. Talk about the issues you care about the most; the simple act of telling the truth now can create a special moment with a loved one. Your authenticity inspires others to open their hearts.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your no-nonsense attitude comes in handy today as you keep your shoulder to the wheel. Even though you can become overwhelmed when there’s so much on your plate, there is also a part of you that enjoys having plenty to do because it keeps your mind busy. Thankfully, working hard now frees you up to enjoy the fruits of your labor during the days to come.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

If you have been doing your part these past few days, your burst of productivity may reach a crescendo now. Don’t be afraid to share your recent activities with a co-worker. However, gaining recognition isn’t your primary motivation, even if acknowledgment from your peers comes later. Put the feedback you receive to good use. Currently it’s all about solidifying your strategy in order to make your efforts worthwhile.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Although you may withdraw into your own mysterious world today, you still might feel a lighthearted playfulness that inspires you to create something special. The problem is that you don’t want to make time for non-productive engagements of any kind today. Social niceties and meaningless chitchat are not your current cups of tea. Just slip away when you get the chance and don’t make a big deal about your escape. Others will secretly admire your determination to follow your bliss.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may have your own private agenda today, yet others may believe you are selflessly helping them. Hopefully, you are working both sides of the equation by taking care of yourself, which in turn has positive effects on those around you. Above all, keep communication channels open and be willing to share your feelings. Your blunt honesty might not always be appreciated, but everyone benefits when you call the shots as you see them now.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You’re entranced by the beauty in your environment, yet it may feel as if you’re walking across an emotional mine field today. Nevertheless, you should be able to navigate through the obstacles without much trouble. Although you can be temporarily distracted, you have work to do and don’t have a lot of time to waste. Fortunately, your determination is unwavering now. Your singular focus is the secret weapon that enables you to reach your goals.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your intellectual clarity is exceptional today as long as it’s not the only tool you rely on. You are particularly cautious in your thinking now because you understand the importance of working within defined social structures. However, you may not be able to suppress your rebellious streak forever. Acknowledge the established boundaries, but don’t let other people’s judgments prevent you from being true to yourself.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may be feeling a little less spacey today, although your imagination continues to put on a show. Unfortunately, your gut is saying one thing while the information you’re receiving is telling you something else. Thankfully, you can finally separate the facts from the illusions by using your current powers of discernment. Although your intuition is typically your strong suit, you’re better off now basing your decisions solely on logic.

Get ready for a spark of genius! The quirky Aquarius New Moon on February 10 ignites unusual ideas and increases the urge for freedom.

This brilliant energy will affect some people more than others.

Mental Mercury’s challenging square with expansive Jupiter encourages a wide range of thinking, but it can also raise optimism beyond reason. A square between Venus and Saturn suggests that limited resources or relationship issues need to be addressed before we can tap into the full potential of this innovative and liberating lunation.

 

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

Friends and organizations can take you in a different direction with this Aquarius New Moon in your team-oriented 11th House of Groups. You may find inspiration while working for a cause or participating in a group project. Although you will probably be excited by a new idea, it’s best not to push it on others now. Do some research and let it simmer until you have studied it thoroughly before sharing it with the world.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

This cutting edge Aquarius New Moon lands in your 10th House of Career and Public Responsibility, where it can put additional obligations on your plate. The challenge is to adjust to changing conditions, rules or expectations that can take you out of your comfort zone. But if you’re ready to jump into the future, you can help to lead to way to breakthroughs in your professional life.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

You may want to hit the road with this New Moon in your 9th House of Travel and Higher Mind. Broadening your experiences through school, intellectual pursuits and connections with faraway places helps to satisfy your curious nature. Your ruling planet Mercury’s conjunction with impatient Mars can provoke impulsive action or careless words, so think twice before leaping or speaking.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Relationship boundaries might be stretched with the unconventional Aquarius New Moon in your 8th House of Deep Sharing. Attracting unusual people can be exciting if you’re willing to learn some different ways to connect. A flexible and open-minded attitude allows you to explore unfamiliar experiences that invite intimacy and can even help establish new business partnerships.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)

The quirky Aquarius New Moon in your 7th House of Others attracts unconventional people. Relationships require more breathing space as you and your partner need more freedom. Keeping an open mind allows you to benefit from unique individuals who challenge your usual ways of thinking. Being friendly and open-minded prevents those differences from driving you apart.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)

A fresh approach to work should make your daily routine more interesting now. The groundbreaking Aquarius New Moon lands in your 6th House of Employment, triggering changes on the job. Adjusting to surprises is a must because old systems may no longer be effective. It’s healthier to adapt and prepare for the future than to stubbornly stick to outmoded ways of doing business.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)

Fun and games are on the agenda with this lively lunation in your 5th House of Romance and Self-Expression. The inventive Aquarius New Moon puts a sparkle in your eye and enhances your creative capacities. This is a time to be a performer, even if you’re shy and uncertain. The support of a friend will help you come across with more confidence in your personal and professional lives.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

It’s never too late to change the past’s influence on you. The experimental Aquarius New Moon occurs in your 4th House of Family and Personal History, giving you a fresh perspective that can free you from old ideas and influences. This is a time to plant seeds for a more inspiring future, perhaps encouraging you to consider relocation or making a major change in your professional life.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

Bright ideas are popping with this brainy Aquarius New Moon in your 3rd House of Information. Lively conversations can open your mind to radically different concepts that spur you to learn even more. Enthusiasm can add passion to your words, but try to keep your messages relatively simple. It’s easy to say too much and complicate matters when you don’t adjust your speech to your audience.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

The impulse to experiment triggered by this Aquarius New Moon lands in your 2nd House of Self-Worth, where fresh ideas about earning money can arise. It’s important to see yourself in a new light to cash in on this potential opportunity. You have undeveloped abilities that require an investment of time and energy, but even more importantly, faith in your ability to reinvent yourself.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

This unconventional New Moon in your sign lights up your personality. Taking chances with your appearance and approach is worthwhile, even if you’re uncertain how others are going to react. You can’t please everyone, but it’s essential that you please yourself. If you’re having fun, that’s the best way to make you more attractive in personal relationships and in professional matters.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)

A change of direction in your spiritual path is possible with this New Moon in your 12th House of Divinity. It’s a time to renew faith in your current beliefs with a fresh perspective or to recognize how they limit you. Exploring different sources of inspiration, both religiously and creatively, renews your sense of purpose. Freeing yourself from sacrificial roles is also appropriate.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for February 8t

Even though the Moon is void in down-to-earth, pragmatic Capricorn, your overall productivity can increase in the early going since the Sun is trine Ceres (1:57AM PST).  Making it to the top of the astro-headlines today is a potent Mercury-Mars union at 6 degrees of Pisces (9:57AM PST). During the first week of February, Mars and Mercury have both entered this poetic, compassionate and yet often turbulent twelfth sign of the zodiac. Along the way, these two planets have orchestrated primarily discordant Mars-Neptune and Mercury-Neptune conjunctions. Now Mercury and Mars merge their highly mental (Mercury) and emotional-physical (Mars) vibrations. Keep your distance from arm-twisting maneuvers and bullying tactics. Think before you act.  Once the Moon is safely in Aquarian territory (11:18AM PST), you can utilize the Mercury-Mars link-up to enhance your involvement with team sports or exercise routines. Aquarius Moon always brings with it an urge toward partaking in community service, group projects, neighborhood associations, charity drives and global causes close to your heart.  Let the good times roll tonight as the Moon trines Jupiter in air signs (10:00PM PST) while the Moon approaches its monthly union with Venus in Aquarius (forming exactly at 2:26AM PST on Saturday).

Daily Cosmic Calendar for February 6th

Rushing out of the starting gate as a jittery jockey on horseback is not advised — when Sagittarius Moon is still in a void twilight zone until 9:56AM PST. Once the clock strikes that moment, the Moon leaves void status and enters earthy, industrious Capricorn for the next two days. Hard work and determination are your dynamic duo leading to the professional Promised Land.  Add a little eccentricity and innovation to your daily routines as Venus forms a supportive, 60-degree liaison with revolutionary Uranus (11:09AM PST). Tap into your creative imagination in the arts, photography, film-video production, music and dance improvisation when Mercury unites with Neptune at 3 degrees of Pisces (3:01PM PST). This latter conjunction also encourages soul-searching and meditation.  One of the best evenings in a long time greets you with fanfare since lovely Venus trines auspicious Jupiter (9:59PM PST) — paving the way with a rainbow essence toward early tomorrow’s Moon-Venus parallel (1:22AM PST). Be a pleasure-seeker for a change of pace.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for February 4th

Ceres — the largest asteroid — at 20 degrees of Gemini shifts from being retrograde to direct (12:50AM PST). All Ceres themes — productivity, agriculture and farming, gardening, Mother Nature, food, diet and nutrition, mother-daughter and parent-child ties, scarcity and famine, child neglect and abuse — are pronounced in importance throughout the day.  While Ceres seems to hog the spotlight, an inspirational, 72-degree link from this asteroid to Pallas (2:14AM PST) and a glowing Moon-Venus parallel (4:49PM PST) can lift your spirits and amplify your skills as a savvy problem-solver. However, the Moon in Scorpio becomes void at 4:32AM PST and this limbo condition lasts until 7:46AM PST when the lunar orb enters fiery, enthusiastic Sagittarius.  The monthly change of Moon signs — from Scorpio to Sagittarius — is usually the most intense and potentially disturbing of all the lunar zodiacal shifts. Therefore, be on your best behavior and handle sensitive relationships with kid gloves this morning.  The Mars-Neptune union at 3 degrees of Pisces (12:57PM PST) and the Mercury-Saturn parallel (9:43PM PST) are the major events in the second half of the day. The Mars-Neptune rapport can increase your personal magnetism, idealism and charisma, but it also contains a shadow side related to irrational and fanatical expressions. Mercury-Saturn in parallel formation — similar to a conjunction in the zodiac — is great for people who work with logic and common sense, but it can also signify potential delays and stalemates.  Get ready for emotional and romantic fireworks tomorrow as Venus, Mars and Juno go on the warpath.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for February 2nd

The Moon leaves void status in Libra by entering fixed and potent Scorpio (4:03AM PST). Research, investigations and in-depth studies receive the proverbial green light with the Moon in the eighth sign of the zodiac. Don your detective garb to solve personal mysteries and ferret out ancestral secrets.  Giving you an extra dose of psychic sensitivity is a Moon-Neptune harmonious trine of 120-degrees (7:46AM PST). Pressing the anger button is a no-no around the time-period when Mercury forms a caustic, 45-degree tie with underworld-ruling Pluto (4:01PM PST).  Healing forces are back on the march — courtesy of a Moon-Chiron trine in water signs (5:39PM PST). Learn more about The Great Pyramid, Stonehenge, and the building of ancient megaliths. Don’t be surprised if feelings of deja vu pop up without warning.  Turn the tables on self-doubt or pessimism later on during the monthly Moon-Saturn union (11:46PM PST).

Daily Cosmic Calendar for January 30th

Forewarned is forearmed — so goes the ancient saying in astrology. This calendar has pointed to today numerous times because it is finally time for Jupiter at 7 degrees of Gemini to leave reverse motion, make a station (3:38AM PST), and slowly turn direct. [Jupiter remains in forward motion until November 6.]  Jupiter’s themes — the power of positive thinking, good fortune, golden opportunities, providence, benevolence, faith and religious beliefs, higher education, literary and publishing pursuits, long-distance journeys, seeing into the future, over-optimism, egocentricity, hubris and arrogance — are emphasized throughout the day.  Your productivity I.Q. can soar — thanks to Mercury forming a harmonious trine with Ceres (11:21AM PST). A virtual stop sign can block your progress when the Sun in Aquarius squares Saturn in Scorpio (2:50PM PST). Utilize the natural happy-go-lucky qualities of strong Jupiter to neutralize the tendency to feel pessimistic when Saturn confronts the Sun.  There is a brief window when the creative arts look promising as the Moon approaches a trine with Venus in earth signs (forming exactly at 6:00PM PST). The problem here is that this Moon-Venus rapport begins a void lunar cycle that lasts until 10:37PM PST. During the void limbo zone, avoid battles of the will as Mercury makes a frictional, 45-degree link to Uranus (10:00PM PST).  Once the Moon enters Libra (10:37PM PST), think about helpful ways to nurture primary partners. You can become an expert problem-solver later on and overnight since Jupiter makes a constructive, 60-degree alliance with Pallas (11:44PM PST).

Daily Cosmic Calendar for January 24th

Reminiscing about the good old days often occurs instinctively during the monthly lunar transit in Cancer. This is because this sign signifies the past, family ties, and ancestral roots. Look through photo albums, the basement or attic for long-lost keepsakes and memorabilia. Healing forces are back on the march as the Moon forms a flowing trine with Chiron in water signs (9:32AM PST).  Don’t let your overall productivity decline as the Sun makes a frictional, 135-degree tie with Ceres (2:52PM PST) while Venus makes an off-kilter, 150-degree link to Ceres (9:18PM PST). Cooking, baking and preparing your garden for the growing season are emphasized throughout the day.  Learn more about recent economic and market trends in order to increase the value of your investments as Mercury makes a trine to Vesta (6:25PM PST). Sisterhood and fellowship gatherings are promoted by the same alignment.  Let your spiritual willpower and mental concentration guide you as Mercury parallels Pluto (6:50PM PST). Revelations abound later on when the Sun forms a supportive, 60-degree alliance with lightning-bringer Uranus (8:47PM PST). Start preparing for Vesta making a station and going direct in Gemini as well as a potent Full Moon — both happening on Saturday.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, Jan. 21st

Weaving stories to connect the apparently separate bits of data in our lives creates tapestries of information. The Moon’s shift into curious Gemini at 9:04 am EST pulls us out of our hearts and into our heads. We feel like we have all the answers as the Moon harmonizes with the conscious Sun, clever Mercury and confident Jupiter. Conceptual breakthroughs are likely as Mercury the Messenger forms a collaborative sextile with ingenious Uranus.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 Apr 19)

Your mind is free to explore new ideas today, and your words are in the spotlight. Although you can jump to brilliant conclusions very quickly now, think before you speak and carefully read your email through one more time before you hit the send button. However, there’s no reason to hold back once you’re sure of your message. Since you have a greater impact on others than you realize, it’s wise to get it right the first time. Give your waiting audience a show they won’t forget.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 May 20)

Your thoughts may run amok today, as if they’re not under the jurisdiction of your logic. But temporarily setting aside common sense can actually lead to an unconventional solution to a tricky problem. Unfortunately, your co-workers might not be willing to give your ideas a fair hearing unless you have the facts to back up your position. Do your homework and be sure to have your information in order before sharing your plans with anyone else.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 Jun 20)

The Moon’s return to restless Gemini inspires your thoughts to fly around in circles, as if they are eagles spiraling on the thermals. Your performance seems easy and graceful to others, but you might need to work hard to keep up the appearance. Meanwhile, you could feel stuck as the prevailing winds won’t allow you to break free. Don’t waste energy struggling against the breezes now; enjoy floating around until the wind changes and gives you an opportunity to escape.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 Jul 22)

Sharing your emotions can be a challenge now, even if you’re clear about how you feel. However, you sense a change coming and you aren’t yet sure as to which way your mood will swing next. Thankfully, this uncertainty isn’t upsetting or worrisome today as long as you are content to just wait it out before making any important decisions. In the meantime, discuss your options objectively and be open to the feedback you receive.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 Aug 22)

Someone might come to you with an unusual plan today, but you aren’t so quick to endorse what you consider to be a risky solution to a simple problem. You can envision alternate strategies that seem more straightforward, and you would rather exhaust these direct approaches first. Even if you’re certain that your answer is the most logical one, remain open to the surprises you encounter along the way.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 Sep 22)

Your friends need you today in ways that require you to express more emotions than you prefer. Even if you’re resistant to revealing your inner thoughts now, try softening enough to give others what they want. You may feel like you’re just going through the motions at first, but sharing your heart is a perfect prescription to brighten your day. You might receive something beautiful in exchange for stepping outside of your comfort zone.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 Oct 22)

You could find yourself in a jam today, and you’re uncertain if you should ask for help or just let it ride. Imagine what you would do if you had absolutely nothing standing in your way. Then, return your focus back to your current situation. If sharing your needs can bring you any closer to your goals, then don’t hesitate to say what’s on your mind and just deal with the consequences as they arise.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 Nov 21)

You may intellectualize complex emotions that normally elude description. But your intuition is operating in overdrive now, so don’t be afraid to rely on it. Nevertheless, you still have to prioritize your needs or you will be pulled in so many directions that you’ll just end up annoyed. However, having a clear destination in mind gives you just enough stability that you can be creative without losing your way.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 Dec 21)

You can talk your way out of nearly anything today, relying on your social graces to avoid conflict. Your charm and wit are working for you now in ways that surprise even you. You know what you want and are willing to ask for it. Still, you could miss a significant opportunity when it appears in your life if you aren’t receptive. Being more sensitive to others helps you recognize your own path to happiness.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

It may be challenging to stay motivated today because you can discover so many fun ways to keep your mind occupied that you end up avoiding your chores. Leaving a job undone is contrary to your basic nature, since you like to take care of business before you play. However, it’s time to try something different now by making pleasurable distractions your top priority for a change. The work will patiently wait for your return.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 Feb 18)

You could be very happy today, even if there’s too much happening in your life. For example, you might agree to one too many tasks and now you must find a way out of your extra commitments. Nevertheless, mischievous Mercury tempts you into thinking there’s a viable shortcut you can take. However, the flirty Gemini Moon’s presence in your 5th House of Fun and Games indicates that you should be able to enjoy the company of others even if you still have a job to finish

 

Pisces Horoscopes

(Feb 19 Mar 20)

Your thoughts are moving so rapidly now that you may not be able to keep up with your own fantasies as they overflow into your reality. But even the most original ideas don’t bring you any closer to a viable solution, so it might be wise to keep the unfinished schemes to yourself for now. Even if it takes another week or so, allow plenty of time for your plans to solidify before sharing them with anyone else. Start by writing everything down that crosses your mind, and then you can make sense of it all later.

Your Weekly Love Horoscopes for January 21st

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Thursday and Friday are relatively quiet days, but then you get a blast on Saturday that is bound to heat up your love life. A bold Leo Full Moon shines in your 5th House of Romance to light up your fiery personality. You’re ready to take chances, express your feelings without restraint and attract all the attention that your heart desires. Giving generously to others is the best way to get back the affection and appreciation you desire.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Your home could be the most fun place in the world this Saturday when the enthusiastic Leo Full Moon brightens your domestic 4th House of Roots, supplying you with tons of excitement and energy. Your comfort level rises when you play host or hostess even if it takes some creative effort to put on a good show. Restoring passion to your current relationship comes when you put your heart fully into it or a new one grows with your display of playful self-confidence.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Engaging in a serious discussion to work out a misunderstanding may slow your social life on Friday. But if an intervention isn’t necessary, taking a hard, cold look at your romantic aspirations is a useful way to refine your personal plans. A sassier you returns on Saturday with an audacious Leo Full Moon occupying your 3rd House of Communication. Your ability to entertain others and to strike up conversations anywhere and at any time makes you the life of the party wherever you go.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

The evocative Moon’s shift into your sensitive sign on Wednesday night puts you in a reflective mood. If you’re attracted to someone, you should feel comfortable enough to make the first move. But when you encounter a person who doesn’t feel right, pulling back into your shell is completely appropriate. On Saturday morning, the energy changes dramatically. The lively Leo Moon inspires you to play for the rest of the weekend, wearing a colorful look and a confident attitude.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

This could be a memorable week with Saturday’s scorching Full Moon occurring in your dramatic sign. Emotions are flowing with passions that will not cool until you’re finished expressing them. Those strong feelings tend to run the gamut from anger to ecstasy, requiring some self-control on your part to manage them appropriately. Putting yourself in a safe and acceptable place where you’re free to play, dance, and shout with joy is an ideal way to celebrate being alive during this celestial high-energy event.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might feel like you’re on the fringes of the action this weekend. This cosmic break is better for enjoying quiet time alone or with one easygoing individual rather than putting yourself in the middle of a crowd. Friday is an excellent time to tackle tough emotional issues with a partner. Different values and expectations need to be ironed out to maintain harmony. If you’re single, a talk with a trusted friend will provide practical advice about your potential prospects.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

It’s great to be optimistic about people but there’s a risk of over-estimating someone this Friday. Being attracted to a person and buying into what he or she says is appealing now, but things could fall short of your hopes if you’re not careful. Picking and choosing who you’re with and what you do is not about satisfying others’ desires, but it’s the best way to take care of yourself. Exercising a little bit of cautious self-restraint will go a long way toward keeping you safe and sound.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You are not likely to be in a casual mood this weekend when both of your intense ruling planets Mars and Pluto clash on Saturday. It’s better to be choosy about your company instead of trying to cooperate by agreeing to do something that’s not in your comfort zone. You might find yourself in the spotlight for a while, but you will probably be more content in a quiet corner. Focus your time and energy on one task you enjoy and one person who really matters.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Don’t wait for the weekend to play because Monday and Tuesday look like wonderful days for having fun with others. The chatty Gemini Moon in your 7th House of Partners joins your lucky planet Jupiter on Monday night, making it easy to end up in a fascinating conversation. This communicative trend continues the next day when you gracefully bounce from a sharing a humorous moment to intelligently discussing more serious matters. Others can’t help but notice the way you sparkle when you talk.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

If trust issues are a concern in your relationships, then Thursday is an excellent day to address them with others. You have an almost ideal combination of sensitivity and logic that can help you to iron out differences in a partnership or enable you to get off to a solid start with someone new. Sharing your vulnerable side won’t make you look weak now; quite the opposite, it can make you appear much more attractive. You’re almost irresistible to your admirers when you can be both strong and soft.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Saturday night should be special with the bold Leo Full Moon landing in your 7th House of Relationships. You are craving adventure and looking for a romance that will rock your world. Make this a memorable day with your partner, if you’re lucky enough to have someone who loves you in return. The joy the two of you share can warm your hearts for a very long time. If you’re single, be brave and dare to express your feelings with passion instead of playing it cool. You will never know what might happen if you don’t put yourself out there and try.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The promise of romance grows stronger with the cuddly Cancer Moon’s presence in your amorous 5th House from Wednesday night until Saturday morning. Breaking away from routine tasks to enjoy the pleasures of life is healthy for you now. If you’re in a long-term relationship, this is a perfect time to spice it up by surprising your partner with something special. If you’re single, pleasing yourself will make you even more desirable to others.

The Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, January 15th

The truth is difficult to discern today because our fantasies are encouraged now that the diffusive Pisces Moon dissolves the hard edges between fact and fiction. Reality is altered by our imagination, prompting us to see what we believe. Even if we have regular work scheduled, this is also a fantastic time for artistic, poetic and musical creations. Nevertheless, it’s lovely to dream as long as we don’t totally forget about our responsibilities.

 

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

A stroke of genius is right up your alley today and you love it when you’re able to figure out totally new solutions to problems that have you and your associates stuck. But just because you suddenly see the light, don’t assume you can make everyone else see things from your point of view. Patience is not your strongest suit, but it’s still a sensible practice for now.

 

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You may get so lost in your own dreams today that you can’t find your way around in the real world. Nevertheless, you have very important tasks to complete and if you don’t meet these obligations now, life will quickly grow more complicated. Get your chores out of the way as fast as possible, and don’t forget to let others know that you need some time alone. After you are accountable for your actions, you can return to exploring your wild imagination with guilt-free abandon.

 

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You’re not nearly as scattered as others think because you have a plan in place, even if no one knows about it yet. Actually, you may have several options that you’re juggling now, but this complexity is not beyond your natural capability. You can perform with the best of them, but remember that your goal isn’t keeping lots of balls in the air; instead, it’s about being happy. Fortunately, walking away from the distractions might be easier than you realize if you simply make a commitment to do it.

 

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Favorable opportunities arise from the most unusual places now, but this doesn’t make them any less reliable. Emotional interactions with friends or a romantic partner could lead to a conceptual breakthrough in how you reach your goals. Remain open to new possibilities, since your path is about to widen if you just let it happen without worrying so much about the outcome.

 

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Emotions that have you tied in knots may be suddenly released today, as if a magician planned your escape in advance. You could be breathing a sigh of relief from being set free, but you can’t avoid the long-term issues you still face. Instead of running away, accept your current circumstances graciously as you work with determination to transform your life.

 

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

A shady character may let you down today by not following through on promises made, but don’t waste your energy getting too upset about it. You might not have as much control over the actions of others as you prefer and you’ll only make yourself unhappy if you allow your emotions to get the best of you. Manage your time effectively and concentrate on improving your own work instead of trying to change anyone else.

 

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may be unsure why your day is overtaken by tasks that don’t help you move any closer to your goals. You might be feeling less than ambitious now, so it’s advantageous to just do whatever is expected of you. Even if you have lots of transformational ideas, applying them at work could take more effort than you’re willing to invest. Entertaining fantasies about the future is enough to bring you satisfaction today.

 

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

An unexpected emotional encounter can shock your nervous system today and wake you up from a deep sleep. You may be in a bit of denial about where your life is heading and now you can begin to see things more clearly. Don’t make the big changes yet; just playfully consider each possibility as it floats into your awareness.

 

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

If you are stressed out about making a financial decision, don’t just take the easy way out today. There is more going on now than meets the eye; you’ll be better off if you let the current situation take its course for a while longer, giving you additional time to discern what’s best. Rest assured that your thoughts will grow clearer in the days ahead. Once your confidence returns, you will feel empowered to make the right choice.

 

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may have to let go of control over your schedule today. One thing after another comes up and you might have to accept that you cannot handle so much chaos at once. Don’t judge yourself too harshly while responding to the demands of the day. Do the best you can and let some of the loose ends stay unraveled until tomorrow when you have sufficient time to handle them all.

 

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Responsibilities at work may conflict with your personal goals, but try not to let that concern you too much at this time. You might not have as much clarity as you want now, so avoid making a decision based upon inaccurate facts or incomplete data. Use this time to explore all of your options, without eliminating any of them. Most of all, be patient with yourself; you’ll figure out what you want within a few days.

 

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You are living in two distinct worlds today. On one hand, you’re quite comfortable floating around in the dreamy fuzziness of your own imagination. On the other hand, you are uncovering more factual information than you know how to manage. Find ways to integrate your feelings with your rational thoughts. When they magically merge, it’s time to swing into heroic action.

Daily Horoscopes for Monday, January 14th

We may grow weary of the high-strung mental energy that has us feeling on edge. Communicator Mercury forms disquieting aspects with judgmental Jupiter, stern Saturn and reckless Uranus, turning simple discussions into complicated battles for intellectual dominance. Fortunately, the Moon shifts into compassionate Pisces at 5:49 am EST to soften an otherwise anxious planetary landscape. Meanwhile, a Venus-Jupiter quincunx tempts us to overindulge.

 

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You might not be willing to trust your feelings today, since you can’t follow your thoughts to their logical conclusion. You are all for telling the truth, but there’s so much on your mind now that every nuance cannot be communicated. Hidden realities widen your perspective and teach you a lot about the real world. The more open you are to the realms of fantasy, the more you can imagine new vistas ahead.

 

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You may be quite relaxed today for a back-to-work Monday since you have already given yourself permission to chill out with your friends. Although responsibilities still require your attention today, make time to restore your energy. Don’t be overly concerned if you leave a job unfinished for a while; treating yourself to a bit of pleasure now shifts your attitude in a positive direction.

 

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Although you might not be eager to meet your obligations today, others may be relying on you more than you realize. Temporarily putting aside your long-term dreams enables you to interact fully in the present moment, but could also contribute to your angst now. No matter how uncertain you are about your future, your heartfelt efforts to communicate with your friends are greatly appreciated and will lift your spirits, too.

 

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You may start the day feeling like an unhappy Crab that has been taken from its watery cave. However, as waves of familiar emotions wash through your life today, you’re reminded of how important it is to stay in touch with those you love. Don’t worry if you can’t explain your newly found confidence to anyone else; just continue about your business without trying to rationalize your behavior. Nevertheless, connecting with others is what matters most.

 

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Your current dissatisfaction with a relationship may increase today, for you might realize what you are missing. But the real problem goes even deeper than what someone else has to offer; it’s about your need for total engagement. Focus on what you can give to others instead of simply thinking about what you’re not receiving in return. Everyone wins if no one is keeping score.

 

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Someone who puts you in closer touch with your feelings may enter your life today, even if you don’t know what to do about your reaction. Until now, you were in a very analytical frame of mind, leaving little room for the confusion of irrational emotions. However, you might need to accept that logic won’t always bring you the satisfaction you seek. Your stress will dissipate if you can get out of your head and into your heart.

 

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You’re unsure of how to go about accomplishing your goals today, but don’t make excuses or procrastinate any longer. Instead of trying to create a plan, rely on your intuition to tell you what to do next. Although you may feel uncomfortable with this strategy, it just might produce the best results. However, don’t overreact; taking an extreme position won’t help you reach your destination any sooner.

 

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may create more stress by trying to resolve the conflict between your current desires and a more logical approach to your needs. Thankfully, the tension should begin to settle down today without any specific action on your part. There are subtle shifts in the present circumstances now that can give you a glimpse of the smoother sailing ahead. But don’t needlessly rock the boat; just stay on course until the discord dissipates.

 

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your lack of commitment might present a problem for a family member or your partner today. It’s not that you’re avoiding an uncomfortable issue; it’s just that your priorities are different from everyone else’s and not based on their expectations. If you don’t want to be pinned down now, let others know how you’re feeling as soon as possible. A difficult situation can simply be avoided if you speak up right away.

 

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You’re trying to do the responsible thing today, but one distraction after another may prevent you from fulfilling your current obligations. Ultimately, it’s less about what others think than it is about your own self-judgment. Be easy on yourself now, for there will be time later to return to unfinished business or to reconsider where to go from here

 

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Instead of rushing into a new task, stop long enough to clarify your goals, assess your resources and make sure that traveling a different path is truly worth the effort. Even if you decide to build on what you have already started, don’t move ahead too fast. Fortunately, it will be much easier to succeed if you take the time to develop your strategy first.

 

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Although you might not feel fully prepared for what’s around the next corner, the Moon’s return to your sign indicates the beginning of a new emotional cycle. If you have left chores unfinished, unexpected events may force you to do what you should have already done. However, if your old business is completed, then opportunities may open up for you now. Just be sure that you honor your dreams when starting something new.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of January 14th

Romantic Venus’ conjunction with mysterious Pluto could reveal relationship secrets on Wednesday. Taking a closer look at this new information can uncover unmet desires and underused assets. These unexpected insights might motivate personal change and increase our capacity for emotional fulfillment. Making tough choices mid-week clears the air and opens the way to a socially satisfying weekend.

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your emotions could heat up from Wednesday through Friday when the evocative Moon occupies your fiery sign. Impatience can either put you in a delicate situation or impel you to make impulsive moves in your personal life. Risky behavior might shake up a partnership but that’s probably better than stifling your desire for change. Exercising a tiny bit of self-control, though, helps to maintain trust even when you are rocking the boat.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Persistence and inner strength can turn a relationship problem into an opportunity for greater intimacy this week. Your amorous ruling planet Venus plows into potent Pluto on Wednesday, shaking your world when secrets are exposed. But an unsettling truth may be just what you need to re-establish your priorities. Knowing exactly what you want and what you don’t want is your ticket to a more fulfilling weekend ahead.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

If you’ve been bogged down with practical matters lately, relief is on the way. This weekend your chatty ruling planet Mercury and the expressive Sun move into innovative Aquarius to brighten up your personal life. Traveling to new locations and connecting with people from other cultures provide mental stimulation that attracts your interest. Just don’t over-analyze every little thing and allow your busy brain to push your emotions out of the picture.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Unanticipated obligations can get in the way of personal matters on Wednesday. Quickly adapting to changing conditions is necessary to reduce stress. But connecting with easygoing friends puts your feet back on solid ground this weekend. Spending time with social organizations and reliable pals  plugs you into groups of pleasure-seeking people where you can relax without the weight of excessive responsibility or unrealistic expectations.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Less work and more play are on the schedule for this weekend. The Sun enters friendly Aquarius and your 7th House of Partners on Saturday to take relationships to another level. Connecting with a quirky person, showing an unusual aspect of your personality or experimenting with your current squeeze are ways to get your heart beating faster. Being playfully spontaneous instead of setting rigid rules makes the game much more interesting.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Passion comes early this week when alluring Venus joins intense Pluto in your 5th House of Romance on Wednesday. There’s no ambivalence about your feelings because you’re playing for keeps now. Anyone who is unwilling to love you without limits could be cut out of your heart. Even though it’s not usually easy to let someone go, eliminating an individual who can’t fulfill your dreams makes room for a person who can.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Memories from your relationship past could arouse powerful feelings this week when vulnerable Venus meets passionate Pluto in your 4th House of Roots. Desires grow more intense as you crave a deeper union or recognize how you’re being stifled by the one you’re in. It’s tempting to run from any uncomfortable revelations, yet shutting off your heart and mind leaves you out in the cold while bravely facing your needs makes you a more powerful magnet for love.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The sensual Taurus Moon invites easygoing connections when she visits your 7th House of Partners on Friday night. Don’t complicate things with too many questions because simplicity is your key to opening a treasure chest of pleasure this weekend. Indulging the senses at slow speeds is especially appealing. Sweet smells, gentle sounds, tender touches and tasty foods supply physical satisfaction that makes any relationship a delight.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Unexpected encounters could pop up around any corner this weekend when mischievous Mercury and the radiant Sun enter friendly Aquarius and your neighborly 3rd House. You might meet someone while running an errand or have a great time with your partner when you are taking care of some routine tasks. The enthusiastic side of your personality will definitely attract some positive attention and make it very easy to get a conversation going.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You could make a critical relationship decision this week. The love planet Venus joins transformational Pluto in your sign on Wednesday. This is like drawing a line in the sand with a current partner if you’re dissatisfied with the situation. If you’re single, it can provide a depth of feeling and desire to motivate you to make some serious personal changes. If you’re hungry for affection and approval, you’re willing to do whatever it takes to gain it now.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

This is a great week to close a chapter in your personal life so that you are free to start a new one. Cleaning out your emotional closets on Wednesday could be a messy affair. But unloading an individual, attitude or expectation that’s not working will take a lot of baggage off your shoulders. Thought-provoking Mercury and the life-giving Sun fire into your sociable sign this weekend to promote self-confidence and initiate a fresh start in matters of the heart.

 

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your involvement in a group or with a friend may reach a critical point this week. If you’re not getting what you want for your effort, you might consider reducing your commitment. Some peace and quiet will be especially appealing starting on Saturday when the Sun slinks into your reclusive 12th House. Less social visibility is recommended, so enjoying private time with one special person or hanging out alone might be just what the doctor ordered.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for January 14th

Bear down and stay in command of all your faculties as the cosmos lowers the boom with a cavalcade of celestial seasonings. One minute after midnight (12:01AM PST), Mercury makes a caustic, 135-degree link to Jupiter. This puts communications and travel plans into temporary disarray while the Moon in Aquarius remains in void mode until 2:50AM PST. Once the Moon enters Pisces at 2:50AM PST, the monthly lunar union with dreamy Neptune is next on the agenda (5:21AM PST). Write down visions in a special notebook as dreams can often foretell the future.  Watch out for over-optimism as Venus makes an off-kilter, 150-degree tie with Jupiter (5:37AM PST). Logic and common sense come to the rescue as Mercury makes an inspirational, 72-degree tie with Saturn (10:28AM PST). Strive to add a sensitive and soothing touch to primary partnerships as Juno unites with Pluto at 10 degrees of Capricorn (2:18PM PST) while the monthly Moon-Chiron union takes place just a few minutes later (2:24PM PST).  More creative, artistic and nurturing vibes can appear when the Moon in Pisces forms a supportive, 60-degree tie with Venus in Capricorn (3:23PM PST). Your ingenious mind may be working overtime this evening — thanks to an inspirational, 72-degree link from Mercury to Uranus (7:01PM PST).  Interest grows concerning holistic healing modalities and alternative medical therapies as Jupiter squares Chiron from Gemini to Pisces (10:11PM PST). Meditate for peace of mind and emotional serenity.
