Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, February 4th

We are eager to start something today, but getting a project off the ground may be more challenging than we expect. Although the enthusiastic Aries Moon strikes a background note of enterprising spirit coupled with impulsive behavior, we could run into complications from stressful lunar alignments with naysaying Saturn and go-for-it Mars. Additionally, confusion is in the air as cerebral Mercury prepares to turn retrograde on Thursday.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are driven by your irrepressible emotions today, yet you can easily get in your own way if you push too hard. Reality is trying to tell you something now, but it may be nearly impossible to decipher the message. Observe the dynamics of this ongoing dance; if your efforts meet resistance, don’t waste too much energy trying to overpower the obstacles. Instead, go to the source of your feelings; you should start to make progress again once you take the time to figure out what you really want.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

A recent change of plans might be a bit unnerving since you often prefer the comfort of the status quo over the uncertainty of the unknown. Circumstances have quieted down enough now for you to look at where you are going and to decide whether or not you really want to head off in this direction. Reassess your long-term goals, but allow current events to pull you back into present time where you are needed. Acting in a responsible manner doesn’t need to prevent you from dreaming about the future.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You’re ready to take a major step forward in your current effort to catch up on backlogged communication. However, you could run into trouble immediately if reality has a different idea about how you should spend your day. The tricky part is that you may not have enough time to avoid what’s coming your way, for the incoming curve balls are so unexpected. Thankfully, letting go of control at just the right moment makes life more enjoyable now. You can always return to your previous plans later in the week.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You want to believe that it’s sufficient to just change your attitude and circumstances will respond accordingly, especially if you need some recovery time from a recent clash with reality. Going home, getting cozy and curling up with a good book and a cup of tea sounds like a perfect solution to all that ails you today. Nevertheless, you must take care of business first if others are depending on you. Balancing inner and outer needs makes the most sense in the long run.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You are all fired up and it’s challenging to talk yourself down from the ledge of enthusiasm today. Unfortunately, everything could grow more complicated than you wish, especially if you overlook a minor detail that comes back to haunt you. Or maybe someone is resisting your plans now, even if they won’t tell you directly. Address any issues that surface since they will only get harder to resolve as the days go by. Slow down and get things right so you don’t have to redo them later on.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your sense of enthusiasm is often powered by your highly functioning analytical mind, which can see every little flaw, no matter how tiny it may be now. Others might be overwhelmed by so many details, but your brain is built for this type of situation. This is your chance to shine; let your associates lean on you for your expertise. Tell yourself that you are up for any challenge today. You can always rest in a day or two after your work is done.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

No matter how hard you try, it still may be tricky to find a point of balance today. Intellectually, you know what you must do and you’re eager to head off in that direction. But others might believe that you should be embarking on a completely different path. Although you would like to take every point of view into account, it’s simply impossible to do so. Instead, be as considerate as possible to all involved. Nevertheless, if you cannot please everyone, at least be true to yourself.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Life might be easier sometimes if only you could turn off your intense emotions and your incisive powers of perception. But, of course, you can’t. Anyway, it wouldn’t be like you to just gloss over the hidden reality of a situation, even if people around you find it difficult to face the gory details. Thankfully, you don’t have to pretend to live up to anyone else’s expectations if you set clear boundaries today. It’s easier to honor your emotions if you create enough room to contain them when they become too extreme for others to handle.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Staying on the sunny side of the street is difficult today if your plans run into resistance from others. Unfortunately, no matter how much you focus on your own intentions now, other people may still rain on your parade. Nevertheless, don’t waste energy trying to outrun an emotional storm or to push away the clouds of doubt. The current turmoil won’t last, but, thankfully, your faith will.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You are truly amazing to watch once you make up your mind to overcome a particular obstacle. When others feel the pressure of circumstances building, they might collapse under the weight of responsibility. However, you Goats love to strategize how to use the current events as opportunities to improve your situation. Even if there are some minor speed bumps in the road now, this is an advantageous time to apply yourself diligently toward reaching your goals.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

There is an uneven progression to your accomplishments today. You might even get yourself all worked up now, only to initiate action and then discover that you wasted precious time running off in the wrong direction. Luckily, you can be very productive if you delay your response in order to avoid making too many false starts. Take a deep breath and visualize crossing the finish line; slow and steady wins the race.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may intuitively sense that big changes are moving slowly toward you. In the meantime, you have plenty to do to fend off more immediate opposition. The problem is that it’s difficult to find the real source of the blockages you now face. Even if the resistance is a direct manifestation of your own imagination, it can still be discouraging. Don’t give up until you accomplish what you set out to do. Your success depends upon your unwavering belief in yourself.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for February 3rd

The dark-of-the-moon phase happens every month just before the lunar orb reunites with its solar companion. There is usually a strong need to complete odds and ends that have been percolating for the last few weeks, but which require an extra oomph to reach the finish line.  From the realm of partnerships comes one solid boost as Venus — even though still retrograde until tomorrow — forms a supportive sextile of 60-degrees to Juno (2:18AM). Don’t allow mental fatigue to interfere with your skillful modes of problem-solving and strategic thinking as the Sun makes a 150-degree tie with Pallas (8:06AM). Be tuned into high-technology and the multi-media during a 60-degree connection from the Moon to Uranus (11:17AM).  The New Moon — energizing 11 degrees of Aquarius — arrives at 1:40PM. Think of this dynamic conjunction as a leaping off point for reaching important creative, business and professional goals. Mercury trine to productivity-enhancing Ceres (4:09PM) and Pallas making an inspirational, 72-degree link with task-oriented Saturn (10:17PM) should be feathers in your cap. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Wednesday, Jan. 29th

At 12:00AM — as this day begins — Juno merges with Chiron at 12 degrees of Pisces. Put an emphasis on healing and uplifting primary partnerships that need sustenance and support right now. This may be easier said than done as the Moon parallels Saturn (12:28AM) while Mercury piles on by squaring Saturn (3:57AM) and the Moon then also forms the monthly conjunction with Saturn (5:44AM). Pushing the business envelope in any form is taboo.  The Moon in Scorpio is in void mode starting at 5:56AM and lasting over 13 hours until 7:14PM when the lunar orb enters upbeat, goal-oriented Sagittarius. Anticipate some stormy psychic weather and stubborn human emotions blocking forward progress during the void-of-course lunar cycle.  Once Sagittarius Moon materializes at 7:14PM, focus your gaze on reaching long-sought goals — particularly on the literary, educational and publishing fronts. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Your Weekend Love Horoscope for Jan. 24 – 26

Weekend Love Horoscope

January 24-26: Verbal Agreements

Maria DeSimone  Maria DeSimone on the topics of love, horoscopes, astrology

 

The Moon will pass through intense Scorpio on Friday and into Saturday night, making love a serious, all-consuming matter. If there’s someone you’re crushing on, it’s possible that you’ll courageously initiate a conversation on Friday thanks to a direct trine between Mercury and Mars. Actions speak louder than words but on this day you’ll be willing to speak up about your feelings and take action to help determine whether or not they are mutual.

On Saturday however, Mercury will square off with Saturn and you might suddenly lose your nerve so be sure to act on Friday. The Moon will move into Sagittarius late Saturday and remain there all day Sunday lighting the mood considerably.

Consider a date that involves something adventurous with your sweetheart. Whether it’ll be bungee jumping or dinner at an exotic restaurant is your call.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, Jan. 21

Everything may appear to fall into place now, but it’s not wise to raise our hopes up too high. The Moon’s shift into fair-minded Libra at 7:43 am EST enables us to view life more objectively. However, the Moon’s harsh aspects to communicator Mercury and stern Saturn reveal that we can fall short of our goals today. Fortunately, the Moon’s harmonious trine to the radiant Sun aligns our feelings with our actions and boosts our confidence.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are quite eager to go along with your friends today because you can imagine the potential for new experiences wherever you look. Luckily, it’s natural to set aside your own agenda while doing what makes the most sense for everyone involved. But you must take time and figure out how to meet your needs, too. Unfortunately, trusting someone with your fate grows more difficult each hour that you hesitate. Find the magical balance between waiting for the right moment and missing your chance.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Establishing a brand new schedule for your diet and exercise routine might be tricky, especially if you’re secretly comfortable with your current state of affairs. Although you may be more certain about what you want, you still could find it hard to motivate yourself to change. Gathering more data is not necessary, for you probably have already done enough research. Anything healthy you do now can lead to an improvement in your physical well-being, so the sooner you take action, the better.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You might think that everything is rolling your way today; unfortunately, the logistics become more complicated as time goes on. Even if it seems as if there’s a lot of potential enjoyment just around the next corner, you can’t think about playtime until you’ve handled your responsibilities. Fortunately, once you’re finished with all your obligations, you’re game for just about anything. Work extra hard so you have time to pursue something more pleasurable later on.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

It’s a good thing if you’re feeling flexible today because you might have to change your plans more than once. Domestic tension may be heating up and you could be required to step in and mediate a family disagreement. However, the current problem isn’t about someone being right and someone else being wrong. Concentrate your attention on helping everyone involved reach common ground, even if their perspectives still differ on a fundamental issue.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You’re able to deftly navigate your way through a complex interaction with conflicting groups of people today. Although everyone is stubbornly holding on to a different set of interests, your intervention may be sufficient to energetically shift the entire dynamic. On another day, you might have just given up and let it all play out on its own. Fortunately, you can maintain control now while still appearing as if you don’t have your hands on the steering wheel.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Instead of doubting your recent decision any longer, accept your previous judgment as being logically sound. It’s already well past the time to consider whether or not to proceed. You have moved beyond the point of no return, even if you’re still experiencing uncertainty. There’s no need to question your choices again; consciously shift your awareness now from the subjective inner realms toward taking the next steps on your journey.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Don’t waste time worrying about making a final choice today; instead use your current ambiguity to express yourself in a creative manner. Sometimes it’s critical to demonstrate your leadership style by behaving with clear authority, but now you are appreciated even more when you’re honest about your crisis of confidence. Be open and take whatever time is necessary to share your concerns rather than just leaving everyone in the dark.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You are often tempted to sink into the recesses of your own subconscious mind. On occasion these inner journeys might be overwhelming and could even pull you into deep emotional turmoil. However, today you can dance around the edges of the shadows with ease as the Moon travels through your 12th House of Imagination. Let your feelings go and follow your dreams.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may unexpectedly find yourself in an intense power struggle when dealing with friends today. However, your relationships can be positively impacted by the social Libra Moon’s visit to your 11th House of Groups, where it alleviates some of the pressure you are experiencing. It doesn’t matter in the long run how you feel right now; just keep meeting your professional commitments with integrity and don’t worry about coming out on top. You currently have a better chance of succeeding if you remember not to take things so personally.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Leading by example may be especially challenging today as long as you continue to change your mind from minute to minute. It’s difficult to trust your decisions now, even if you have the intuitive data that you want to justify your choices. But don’t get hung up looking for a final answer to any one particular question. Just respond in the moment to the best of your current ability and be ready to move on.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You appear quite intense now that the willful Sun is traveling along in your sign. Luckily, today the Sun is receiving support from the Moon in fellow air sign, Libra. However, you could also feel dreamier than usual, as if your wishes have a life of their own. Be bold and take action as needed; just remember that karmic Saturn will judge you harshly if you believe that escape through fantasy is a viable option.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You have a bit of magic up your sleeve, and luckily it is there today when you need it most. Even if you are required to deal with powerful people who might be investing in your success, there’s no reason to be intimidated. Just stay fully present with your truth because maintaining your integrity sets the stage for successfully managing issues that will demand resolution in the near future.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of January 20th

Venus continues to move retrograde in Capricorn, reminding all of us that the “business” side of love needs attention. Time your conversations early in the week — before Friday — to take advantage of a sexy communication link between Mercury and Mars. Move quickly to ask for what you want, though, before the weekend is underway. By Saturday, Mercury will square off with Saturn, and the weight of your words can stabilize love — or bury it.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Take advantage of the boost in social energy early in the week. Leading up until Friday, it’s possible you and your partner will enjoy a party or other event with mutual friends. There’s a good chance you’ll meet up with pals who share a similar interest that is somehow “out of the box.” Your mind will enjoy a boost of stimulation, which will help you keep things interesting in all aspects of your life — especially romance!

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You may not feel as if your mate is fully supporting you with a career decision that looms ahead. He or she might have the perspective that you’re pushing your luck and threatening your security by making the next move you plan to make. While this might be a valid point, don’t allow pessimism to deter you. Realize it’s also possible that your sweetheart is projecting his or her own fears onto you. Pursue what you know is right for you.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Set your sights on an adventure with your lover this week — or at least plan to talk about one. A brilliant opportunity to expand your horizons is possible, and of course you’ll want to include your sweetheart. You might decide to take a class together that allows you to explore an offbeat topic that interests you both. You may also talk about planning that exotic vacation. Keep talking, but don’t commit just yet — wait until after Venus turns direct on January 31 for any big ticket purchases.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

If you feel tightness in the romance department this week it’s not your imagination. As a matter of fact, you and your sweetie might endure a stressful conversation — especially near Saturday. This will likely have to do with shared resources, such as your partner’s income, insurance benefits or even shared debt. You might realize that taking a vacation together or spending extra cash isn’t a smart idea right now. Taking a mature and responsible approach in handling your joint finances won’t feel fun. But it is necessary.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Domestic responsibility might squeeze the romance out of your life this week. You might need to take care of an elderly relative or attend to another family obligation, and if so it’s likely to take your attention away from your mate. What might make this more unsettling is that your partner isn’t likely to support you while you carry this extra family weight. In fact, he or she may resent the fact that you’re focused so much on your clan. A happy medium may not be possible … push through.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

A serious conversation about who’s pulling more weight in your relationship may be called for. If you’re still feeling resentment about doing more of the everyday work to keep the nuts and bolts intact around your love nest, you may finally voice your frustration. Try your best to approach your mate in a way that won’t put him or her on the defensive. If you express how you feel honestly, and without reproach, a resolution is possible. In the end, however, it’s you who might need to draw boundaries. Did your lover really insist that you clean every nook and cranny of space you share? Probably not … that’s a “you” thing. Own it.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your love life will be on fire this week — at least in your mind. The good news is that your ability to talk to someone special will be incredible — especially if you act by Friday. Go ahead and ask out someone who isn’t usually “your type.” You may be pleasantly surprised to learn the two of you have so much in common and plenty to talk about. Just remember that your ruler, Venus, is still in retrograde motion. Starting a new relationship isn’t ideal under this condition. Even so, there’s nothing wrong with talking and getting to know someone. Just take it slow.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Talking to a relative about your love life might not always appeal to you, you might make an exception this week. There’s a strong possibility that someone in your clan understands more about what you’re going through romantically these days than you might ever have guessed. In fact, you’ll only know just how startling the parallels in your love life are if you have the courage to talk about your own first. It’s OK — go there. You won’t regret it.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Time with friends might prove beneficial for you in more ways than one this week. If you and your partner attend an event with a group of pals, you’re likely to find it renews sparks between you. Stimulating conversation in a group setting will likely lead to extra-curricular romance behind closed doors later on, when it’s just the two of you. Unfortunately, your ideal social time this week will be before Friday. The weekend will be a dud, so plan accordingly.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your love life might remain in a fragile state for just a little bit longer. Venus is still traveling retrograde in your sign — a phenomenon that will continue to test relationship and your lovability factor until January 31. This week, you might feel as if you’re making progress when it comes to courageously talking about what you know you’re worth. Remember, you’re a rare and beautiful find and anyone who loves you should treasure that fact. Don’t sell yourself short!

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

A heated debate between you and your sweetheart might send sparks flying all over the place this week — especially between the sheets! Don’t be worried about adamantly defending your stance on a particular subject, even if your mate doesn’t agree with your perspective. For most of this week you’ll have a remarkable ability to sound sexy and informed all at once. Use it to your advantage. Go after your lover by seducing his or her brain first!

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

A deep and meaningful conversation with your partner this week might help you forge a greater bond, physically and spiritually. Don’t worry about freaking out your mate with wild or eccentric thoughts now. Sharing what’s really on your mind is what your lover craves from you and what he or she will respond to most. Even if it’s a silly fantasy or an irrational fear, talking about it will help you feel more connected to your mate. Open your mind and your heart.

Born on the Capricorn-Aquarius Cusp (Jan. 17th – Jan. 23rd)

Born on the Capricorn-Aquarius Cusp

The Cusp of Mystery and Imagination is never a dull thing

Tarotcom Staff   Tarotcom Staff on the topics of cusp, capricorn, astrology, aquarius

 

What happens when you combine the energies of capable Capricorn and quirky Aquarius? You get highly unique individuals, that’s what. If you were born between about January 17 and January 23, you were born on The Cusp of Mystery and Imagination, and there’s never a dull moment.

Whether outwardly flamboyant or shy and quiet, Capricorn-Aquarius cuspers always have much excitement going on internally. They have vivid dreams and rich fantasies that need to be expressed creatively if they’re to be happy.

Prone to leading unusual lives, “Capriquarians” often struggle to balance the two very different sides of their personalities — they are reserved yet social, security-craving but independent, and traditional yet offbeat.

Capricorn-Aquarius cuspers love to talk and entertain, and they especially enjoy intellectually stimulating conversations about any manner of strange topics. This is why no matter how hard they work or how dedicated they are to achieving their goals, things are never dull.

While hard-work and high standards bring these cuspers much success in most career endeavors, they can have more difficulty maintaining personal relationships. This is perhaps due to a need for independence, and a tendency to seem aloof and critical — sometimes even selfish. However, if they can put forth the loyal, funny and friendly sides of themselves they’ll make fast friends.

It’s safety first during 2014’s first Full Moon

The sensitive Cancer Moon opposing the pragmatic Capricorn Sun on January 15, 2014, is a dance between soft and hard. Inner needs dominate from the lunar side but external demands tell the solar half of the story. Both signs, though, share an interest in security. Finding ways to protect feelings while taking on the tough tasks of the world is the gift and challenge of this Full Moon. Stabilizing Saturn in Scorpio’s favorable connections with the Sun and Moon reward those who dig deeply to reveal untapped resources and unmet needs.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

This Full Moon in subjective Cancer and your 4th House of Roots turns your attention inward. It helps you to recognize what you need to stay on the road to success. Emotional support is essential but getting it may require you to open up and expose your inner self. You usually try to avoid feeling vulnerable, but allowing this can lead to the kind of tenderness that supplies the drive required to reach your professional goals.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Tender words and imaginative ideas flow freely with this sensitive Cancer Full Moon in your 3rd House of Communication. There is a risk of taking everything too personally, but if insecurities don’t get out of hand, greater intimacy and trust will follow. A more caring way of connecting helps to overcome differences of philosophies and long-range goals. Adapting to immediate circumstances reduces stress about the future.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

This security-conscious Cancer Full Moon lands in your 2nd House of Resources to shine a light on how you handle your assets. If a financial crisis flares up, slowing down your reaction to it will help you to make a wise decision. Stabilizing Saturn’s favorable aspects to this Sun-Moon opposition helps you to resist pressure from others with patience and maturity that earns you trust and, perhaps, more money as well.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

The Full Moon in your sign lights up your 1st House of Personality. Feelings come to the surface and your reactions to people grow stronger. Putting yourself first, though, is the message of this lunation. Reliable Saturn’s favorable angle to the Sun and Moon encourages self-trust and offers the confidence needed to pursue your desires with the focus, commitment, and persistent needed to get what you want.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)

Imagination, intuition, and enlightenment are potential gifts of this Cancer Full Moon. It occurs in your 12th House of Spirituality where you benefit from having more private time. Communing with nature and engaging in prayer, meditation, or yoga are excellent ways to gain inner strength and support. Awakening to a higher sense of purpose can give new meaning to your life and clarify a big decision about work.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)

This emotionally charged Cancer Full Moon lands in your 11th House of Groups where it can spur a crisis among colleagues or friends. While over-reacting isn’t recommended, it’s still healthier to express strong feelings than to keep them to yourself. You’re likely to find that others are having similar responses and that your honesty can be a motivating force that brings more passion and motivation to the team.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)

Professional matters are likely to take priority with this Cancer Full Moon in your 10th House of Career. While gaining attention and getting additional duties are possible, it seems that you need to be emotionally invested in your job to appreciate it now. If challenges arise at work, avoid making a big scene about them. Instead, take a long, hard look at the path you’re on and think about changing course if you’re not happy.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

Visions of faraway places can make it difficult to feel settled and comfortable where you are. This emotionally charged Cancer Full Moon occurs in your 9th House of Travel. Restlessness is likely, which can be helpful if it motivates you to broaden your horizons. Connecting with people in distant locations and a sudden desire to advance your education are favorable potential outcomes of this soul stirring transit.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

Relationships could grow in intensity with this emotional Cancer Full Moon in your 8th House of Deep Sharing. Demanding partners — personal and professional — challenge you to meet their needs. Deciding which, if any, are worth responding to is part of this event is about. Another side of it, though, is for you to open up and expose your vulnerability. Doing so can earn trust and greater intimacy with others.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

The cuddly and self-protective Cancer Moon opposes the Sun in your pragmatic sign. This occurs in your 7th House of Partners where it tests your ability to respond to emotional people. Being tender with others is essential to maintaining productive alliances. Their strong feelings might upset your plans, but if you’re willing to show some flexibility, current connections are deepened and new ones likely to occur.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

Powerful feelings can have an effect on your work with this Cancer Full Moon in your 6th House of Employment. You could be feeling moody or insecure about your job, but the higher purpose of this lunation is to engage you more deeply in your daily tasks. You’re being pushed beyond your intellect to tap into emotions that don’t make immediate sense, but which might show you the way to happiness.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)

This could be a delicious Cancer Full Moon because it falls in your 5th House of Play, Creativity and Romance. Opening your heart can, of course, lead to some emotional excess, but it’s smarter and safer than suppressing your feelings. Finding an outlet to express yourself through love, art, and imagination is not only exciting, but can build your confidence and make you a more powerful presenter of your ideas.

Saturn

Saturn

Tarotcom Staff Tarotcom Staff on the topics of saturn, planets, insight, astrology

Saturn is the planet of limitations and lessons. Because he is associated with restriction, Saturn’s transits and aspects are sometimes dreaded. The truth, though, is that Saturn isn’t about punishment, he’s about karma — if you put in the work where Saturn says you need to (as dictated by his location in your Astrology birth chart), you are rewarded; yet if you neglect to listen to Saturn’s lessons, you might not like the consequences.

Saturn’s biggest spotlight-moment in Astrology comes at a person’s Saturn Return. The Saturn Return happens when Saturn returns to the exact point in the sky where it was when that person was born, which happens every 28 – 30 years. Think of the Return as Saturn’s version of Judgment Day, the time when he decides if you’ve made progress or not, and either doles out rewards, or consequences that will help move a person closer to learning the lessons that have been missed so far.

Nickname: The Taskmaster

Zodiac sign Saturn rules: Capricorn

Exalted in: Libra

House Saturn rules: 10th House of Career, Authority and Publicity

Saturn stays in each zodiac sign for: 2 1/2 years

Saturn makes a complete trip through the zodiac: once every 28 – 29 years

Saturn retrogrades: about once every year, with each retrograde lasting around four or five months

In Roman mythology, Saturn was a god that ruled over time and justice. Before the discovery of Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto (that came after the invention of the telescope), Saturn was the last visible planet in our solar system, giving it its association with limits and boundaries.

Stabilizing Saturn’s favorable aspects to this Sun-Moon opposition helps you to resist pressure from others with patience and maturity that earns you trust and, perhaps, more money as well.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

The Full Moon in your sign lights up your 1st House of Personality. Feelings come to the surface and your reactions to people grow stronger. Putting yourself first, though, is the message of this lunation. Reliable Saturn’s favorable angle to the Sun and Moon encourages self-trust and offers the confidence needed to pursue your desires with the focus, commitment, and persistent needed to get what you want.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)

Imagination, intuition, and enlightenment are potential gifts of this Cancer Full Moon. It occurs in your 12th House of Spirituality where you benefit from having more private time. Communing with nature and engaging in prayer, meditation, or yoga are excellent ways to gain inner strength and support. Awakening to a higher sense of purpose can give new meaning to your life and clarify a big decision about work.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)

This emotionally charged Cancer Full Moon lands in your 11th House of Groups where it can spur a crisis among colleagues or friends. While over-reacting isn’t recommended, it’s still healthier to express strong feelings than to keep them to yourself. You’re likely to find that others are having similar responses and that your honesty can be a motivating force that brings more passion and motivation to the team.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)

Professional matters are likely to take priority with this Cancer Full Moon in your 10th House of Career. While gaining attention and getting additional duties are possible, it seems that you need to be emotionally invested in your job to appreciate it now. If challenges arise at work, avoid making a big scene about them. Instead, take a long, hard look at the path you’re on and think about changing course if you’re not happy.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

Visions of faraway places can make it difficult to feel settled and comfortable where you are. This emotionally charged Cancer Full Moon occurs in your 9th House of Travel. Restlessness is likely, which can be helpful if it motivates you to broaden your horizons. Connecting with people in distant locations and a sudden desire to advance your education are favorable potential outcomes of this soul stirring transit.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

Relationships could grow in intensity with this emotional Cancer Full Moon in your 8th House of Deep Sharing. Demanding partners — personal and professional — challenge you to meet their needs. Deciding which, if any, are worth responding to is part of this event is about. Another side of it, though, is for you to open up and expose your vulnerability. Doing so can earn trust and greater intimacy with others.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

The cuddly and self-protective Cancer Moon opposes the Sun in your pragmatic sign. This occurs in your 7th House of Partners where it tests your ability to respond to emotional people. Being tender with others is essential to maintaining productive alliances. Their strong feelings might upset your plans, but if you’re willing to show some flexibility, current connections are deepened and new ones likely to occur.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

Powerful feelings can have an effect on your work with this Cancer Full Moon in your 6th House of Employment. You could be feeling moody or insecure about your job, but the higher purpose of this lunation is to engage you more deeply in your daily tasks. You’re being pushed beyond your intellect to tap into emotions that don’t make immediate sense, but which might show you the way to happiness.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)

This could be a delicious Cancer Full Moon because it falls in your 5th House of Play, Creativity and Romance. Opening your heart can, of course, lead to some emotional excess, but it’s smarter and safer than suppressing your feelings. Finding an outlet to express yourself through love, art, and imagination is not only exciting, but can build your confidence and make you a more powerful presenter of your ideas.

Your Weekend Love Horoscopes for Jan 10 – 12

Weekend Love Horoscopes

January 10-12: Enduring Bonds

Maria DeSimone  Maria DeSimone on the topics of love, horoscopes, astrology

The Moon passing through stable Taurus on Friday, followed by an early morning sextile between Venus and Saturn, will create an atmosphere of realism and security in matters of the heart.

If you’re in a relationship then you’ll hold on tight to your lover, appreciating him or her for warming your body and soul. If single, it’ll be a good time to carefully consider what you want and deserve in love. After Saturday when the Moon glides into Gemini, you’ll be able to intellectualize your emotions easily.

Cerebral thinking certainly takes over by late Saturday afternoon when Mercury enters innovative Aquarius. Since Aquarius rules technology and the Internet, you might maximize the Gemini Moon and Mercury in Aquarius energy by setting up a profile on an Internet dating website or by initiating a conversation with someone you’re attracted to via a social media account. You have nothing to lose!

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for January 10th

The Moon is in Taurus for another day — placing an overall emphasis on fiscal responsibility and anchoring your ideals in the real world. Insights abound early on — thanks to a Mercury-Jupiter contra-parallel (12:35AM).  Cooking, baking and enjoying a nature trek are in the cards while the Moon trines the Sun in earth signs (9:35AM). Don’t allow the shadow side of the beautiful ringed-planet to rain on your parade as the Moon makes its monthly opposition with Saturn (11:08AM).  It shouldn’t be that hard to bounce back from adversity since the Moon trines Venus (11:58AM). Love vibrations increase in frequency around the time-period that the Moon and Venus engage in this mutual-admiration alignment.  Some of these romantic sentiments can remain influential for several hours into the afternoon and evening due to an approaching Sun-Venus retrograde conjunction that energizes 22 degrees of Capricorn and which arrives tomorrow morning at 4:26AM. A party atmosphere can attract you like a magnet tonight. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Saturnalia Day 2: Saturn’s Release

Colors: Black and Gold
Element: Earth
Altar: Upon cloth of black place eight gold candles, each surrounded by gold coins, a bottle of good wine and many cups, and the figure of a seated man, wrapped in a chain.
Offerings: Throw over routines and take joy.
Daily Meal: Anything that the folk of the House want, correct or otherwise.

Invocation of Saturn’s Release

Hail to the Lord of Discipline,
Saturn bound in chains.
Hail to the Old Man of Time
With your fearsome sickle,
Lord of the Hourglass, the Sundial,
All that places restrictions on the bright,
The beautiful, the free and easy.
You live an existence bound in chains,
But at this time of the year, dark and cold,
We release you from your bonds!
We acknowledge that order cannot be held
Without respecting that which is chaos,
And so we pay for the blessed order of our lives,
The gift of Saturn, and Eunomia, and many others,
By these days of release from that Order.
We release you, O Lord of Limitations,
And pray that you, and we, shall be glad
Once more to place these chains about you
And about ourselves. Hail Saturn!

(All cry out “Hail Saturn!” The chain is unwound from about the seated statue of Saturn, and the wine is poured. All toast to the Gods and to many other things, and go off to do what they will. From this point until Arktos of the night of Yule, rules are loosened if not entirely done away with. There is no work today during Akte and Elete, and folk may do what they will until Hesperis. All work done, and all hours attended to, will be by choosing and not by rule. Waking and sleeping will come as they will. For many folks, this will be a time to leave the House and visit family.)

Song: Any that the House chooses.

Colors: Black and Brown

Invocation to Saturn

Hail to the Lord of Discipline,
Saturn bound in chains.
Hail to the Old Man of Time
With your fearsome sickle,
Lord of the Hourglass, the Sundial,
All that places restrictions on the bright,
The beautiful, the free and easy.
Hail Lord of Rules, Patron of Farmers
Who must live by the unrelenting cycle of the year,
Sowing and reaping whether they will or no.
Many fear you, Old Grandfather
Who insists that your grandchildren
Eat their vegetables and remain polite at table.
Great Sensei of the Dojo of Hard Knocks,
We know that you want us to succeed,
But the world outside is a hard place
Filled with troubles, and you will not
Turn us out without making certain we are ready,
Even if that means a hard testing
Over and over, until you are certain of us.
You have learned to live in chains
And learned that boundaries are a valuable thing.
Hail Lord of Limitations! Teach us,
Your unworthy and foolish students,
How to discipline our unruly souls,
And how to appreciate your gift of knowing our limits.

Chant: Saturnus Saturnus Accidia

(The tea is passed around, and each names the limits on them, consensual or no, and thanks Saturn. The rest of the tea is poured out as a libation.)

Celebrating Spirituality 365 Days A Year – Saturnalia (Dec. 17 – 23)

December 17th – 23rd

Saturnalia

Out of all the ancient Roman festivals this was the most beloved. The festival grew out of the dedication-day of a temple to Saturnus, the God of seed and sowing. It is also equated with the Greek Kronos, father of Zeus, and supreme God during the age of the Goldent Race. It was believed that Saturn had been the King of Italy in a time of equality and abundance.

The festival began with a sacrifice at the Temple of Saturn, which was followed by a great public banquet. During the Saturnalia, all shops and schools were closed and gambling—usually prohibited—was allowed. Each household chose a mock king to preside over the festivities, masters waited on their slaves, presents were given, and the entire household celebrated. Many of the time-honored traditions and customs of Saturnalia were absorbed into the later Christian Christmas that fell on December 25th.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, Dec. 12th

We feel more secure today as we stabilize recent gains and make concrete plans for the future. The Moon’s shift into sensible Taurus at 3:40 pm EST soothes our nerves. Fortunately, turning our dreams into reality is possible because optimistic Jupiter forms a harmonious trine with pragmatic Saturn, relieving the pressure that comes from frustration. It’s crucial to consider what we want to achieve now and set our intentions on reaching our goals.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You don’t have to take charge by acting in a dictatorial manner, even if you believe you know what needs to be done. Although you are a champion of choosing the fastest route to your destination, there are other ways to reach your goals today. Yours may be the best method for you, but it might not work as well for someone else. It’s better to give up control around the outer edges of your life now and let some things run their own course.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You should be able to accomplish your objectives today, but you might start out distracted by an inner conflict as you contemplate the best way to assert yourself in the current situation. You may struggle reining in your emotions this morning, but steadfast support from a close friend has a calming influence. Relationship dynamics improve as the day wears on, freeing you to find a sustainable pace at work. In the meantime, any movement is better than inaction even if you don’t see tangible results until later on.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

It’s probably not a trivial issue if you’re concerned about your current obligations to coworkers. However, your mental gyrations might actually push you to a critical point as you turn your thoughts into effective action. You know that you shouldn’t let a crucial opportunity slip away now without making your move. Go forward with determination; your efforts will pay off in ways you can’t yet imagine.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Your resolve deepens today and may turn into an obsession unless you’re able to put your goals into a healthier perspective. Fortunately, you seem to have a natural ability to know when to let go because your intuition is right on target now. Don’t waste energy second guessing your decisions. Overcome your insecurities and trust your judgment. If you keep your eyes on the prize, you’ll be amazed by the progress you make over time.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You must wield your power carefully because your actions have greater consequences now than you realize. However, it’s crucial to lead by example and not by intimidation. Use of force isn’t effective and only encourages others to resist getting in line with your goals. You have a deep pool of physical and mental energy today, so make these days as productive and positive as you can.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Although you may be unsure of your goals now, you can lean on your close friends and associates for a reality check. However, once you let others help you reach a decision about your course of action, you must rely solely on your own practical and efficient manner to achieve the results you want. The good news is your high level of integrity has come through for you in the past and it will do so again today.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your long-term career goals are on your mind today but you might not choose to share your plans with anyone else yet. You can achieve the greatest satisfaction by considering various scenarios and imagining your future success. Luckily, these thoughts are not just idle fantasies now because you also have the ability to work hard and improve your life. Don’t expect immediate results; some things are worth waiting for more than others.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your tendency toward concentrating on a single task might make you seem a bit ruthless now, but it’s a small price to pay for achieving your goals. Others may feel as if they are in your way unless they agree to do everything you suggest. But you don’t have to be so quick to push your agenda. Even if it doesn’t seem apparent at first, there’s always room for compromise. Success is within reach if you can establish a productive routine to follow during the next several weeks.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You have a high level of concentration today, especially if you establish clear objectives because karmic Saturn is harmonizing with your key planet Jupiter. Instead of inflating your confidence to cover your uncertainty, you’re able to keep your optimism on a long slow burn, sustaining a steady level of production. Remember, practicing patience can buy you the time you presently need, but there’s no substitute for solid preparation and hard work. Don’t jump yet; leap only when you feel ready.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You are very conscious of interpersonal boundaries now and could go out of your way to clarify the dynamics in your relationships. Thankfully, others can bring you a sense of well-being as your key planet Saturn harmonizes with generous Jupiter in your 7th House of Companions. You may feel disarmed by someone’s encouragement, prompting you to let down your guard. However, you’re acutely aware of your goals and how to achieve them, so there’s no danger in being subsumed by someone else’s agenda. Open your heart and let the force be with you.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You aren’t in a mood to be messed with today, especially if your work has piled up and you feel pressure to meet your obligations. You won’t let anything prevent you from accomplishing your goals. Thankfully, your coworkers may turn out to be a source of much-needed support. It’s a blessing to have good people around you who can jump in and offer useful assistance at exactly the right moment. There’s no need to shoulder the burden alone; gratefully accept the help in the manner it is intended.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Expressing yourself creatively might be more important to you than to anyone else in your environment. Other people may question your motives or even ask you to do additional tasks for them. Luckily, you’re not easily sidetracked now, even if you don’t have much to show for your efforts at first. But don’t slip into the tempting waters of irrational self-doubt. No one can pull the rug out from underneath you if you remember that your instincts are trustworthy and rarely steer you wrong

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of December 9th

When it comes to love, we all want brilliant, enlightening communication and the ability to reach for your most enduring goals together. Ah, the stuff that every dream relationship is made of, right? Fortunately, this week it’s all within your grasp. Tuesday’s lively trine between Mercury and Uranus will promise support and interest as you and your mate share those bright ideas. Then, on Thursday, expansive Jupiter will connect with Saturn, helping you keep steady as you build up each other’s hopes.

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Have you longed to take your relationship to new spiritual heights? This week you just might begin that incredible journey. Don’t be afraid to approach your sweetheart and open up about your spiritual or philosophical views. Even if they’re a little bit “out there,” your lover will find them endearing. In fact, the more unconventional you are in this department, the more attractive you’ll be. Looking to buy a house or condo with your partner? This week that dream might become a reality.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Have you had that intimate conversation with your lover yet? You know, the one about your sex life? If not, this is the week to share the thoughts you have about how things have been going between the sheets. Don’t be afraid to tell your sweetheart that you’re up for a tad more experimentation in the bedroom. If you approach this topic near Tuesday, you might be surprised at the response — livening things up will be much easier than you think. So stop avoiding it and start talking about it!

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You might not feel this week is especially heart stopping when it comes to fairytale romantic prospects, but that’s just fine. Not every moment of our lives is meant to be filled with oozy enchantment. Instead, you’ll derive your greatest satisfaction with your partner when the two of you focus on your social life — especially around Tuesday. Do you share a similar curiosity and attend meetings or belong to an organization related to this interest? On Tuesday, you might feel exceptionally stimulated as you pursue learning more about it. Your partner will agree.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

This week, if anything sustains you, it’ll be love. Your ability to count on your sweetheart will remind you that even though life sometimes takes you on a bumpy ride, the one constant that remains is each other. If you’ve experienced a rough patch in your relationship lately, you’ll feel the stress begin to diminish by Thursday. If you’re married with children, it may be the kids that bind you together, reminding you that your bond is something special after all.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Romantic and adventurous thoughts and ideas will take your breath away this week. Don’t put anything past your lover, because he or she is likely to feel as restless and itchy for a new experience as you’ll be. Consider a new hobby that you can enjoy together. It’ll need to offer both physical and intellectual stimulation in order to really feed the craving you each have now. The good news is that you’ll continue to communicate beautifully with your sweetheart this week. Love is grand!

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

It’s one thing to have love in your life, but it’s another thing entirely when that love makes you feel completely supported as you pursue your dreams. This week, you’ll have the best of both worlds. If you’re second-guessing yourself when it comes to one of your long held aspirations, it’ll be your partner who helps put things in perspective. He or she will remind you that instead of looking at how much further you need to go, you should give yourself a pat on the back and acknowledge how far you’ve already come.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your relationship dynamic is anything but conventional these days, and at times this can drive you batty. This week, however, you might find that you not only tolerate your partner’s eccentric ways, but you also manage to achieve a great amount of satisfaction from them. You seem more open somehow, and more able to understand that unusual or different doesn’t mean negative. In fact, when it comes to your love life, weird is the new “hot.”

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Optimism returns in your world this week, much to your delight. With Saturn touring your sign since October 2012, along with significant eclipses crossing your relationship axis, there’s a certain amount of sobriety attached to your responsibilities in a close partnership. Tests to your personal endeavors are par for the course, as Saturn wants to ensure that you’re spending time on projects — and people — who bring quality to your life. On Thursday, you might feel a positive breakthrough. Renewed faith will allow you to make strides with your mate.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

An open mind is the key to an open heart, and this week you’ll know this is true. If single, a conversation with someone you find intriguing may quickly lead to a first date. Don’t think you need to go out of your way to find this person. He or she may appear on the train during your commute, or be casually shopping while you make a pit stop at the grocery store. Remain open to any dialogue with someone new you meet — especially around Tuesday. Anything can happen from there.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You and your partner might feel as if a mutual dream is finally coming true. While you’ll both have worked quite diligently to make this happen, it appears that by Thursday you’ll receive a clear indication that your hard work is about to pay off. New growth is possible in your individual lives, as well as in your relationship, and you’ll each feel as if you’re on the edge of something wonderful. It’s something that will certainly add to your joy.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Mercury, the ruler of your romance sector, is now touring your 11th house of friends and groups. On Tuesday, Mercury will connect beautifully to Uranus — your ruling planet. What does this all mean for your love life? Intellectual sparks, of course! A social event you attend early in the week for pleasure or humanitarian purposes might lead to a chance meeting with someone special. If you’re scheduled to give a speech, lecture or presentation, do pay attention to your audience. Someone may be vying for eye contact.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Matters of the heart will be decidedly spiritual this week, and that’s just how you like it! With Jupiter touring your romance sector, the opportunity to find the love of your life if single is truly spectacular. On Thursday, Jupiter will align with Saturn, the planet of stability and commitment. You could make a love connection during a spiritual retreat, while studying a topic important to you or through a connection with one of your mentors. Soul mate love is possible now, not just in your dreams, but also in your reality.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for December 9th

Although Mars and Venus are attempting to support your efforts across the board, anticipate the manifestation of some kind of test or crisis environment during the first half of the day. Mars forming an inspirational, 72-degree rapport with Jupiter (3:35AM) can offer buoyant feelings and an exuberant mind-set while a Sun-Venus parallel (9:29AM) represents a cornucopia of potential riches — socially, artistically, and in matters of the heart.  However, the Moon contra-parallel to Mars (6:15AM), the First Quarter Sun-Moon Phase (activating 18 degrees of Sagittarius and Pisces at 7:13AM) and a Moon parallel to Mars (8:41PM) are a trio of discordant alignments that can undermine your stability. Try to cut through apparent obstacles in your path around the time-period when the First Quarter Sun-Moon Phase is exact.  One extra hopeful cosmic signature today comes in the form of a Grand Triangle in water signs — composed of the Moon in Pisces trine to Saturn in Scorpio (7:54AM) and Jupiter in Cancer (9:09AM). The more you can see the big picture of life right now, the greater the chance you will find a way to fulfill your higher destiny on Spaceship Earth. This Moon, Saturn and Jupiter geometric pattern also points the way to this Thursday’s Jupiter-Saturn trine of 120-degrees — a positive aspect that can help you make great progress in reaching long-sought professional goals.  Be aware that the Moon makes a supportive, 60-degree tie with Venus at 10:42PM, but this favorable alliance starts a void lunar uncertainty cycle that lasts until 5:07AM tomorrow when the Moon enters fiery Aries. Refrain from making big decisions overnight. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Your Love Horoscopes for The Week of Nov. 25th

There’s no shortage of incredible communication aspects this week, which will surely add support to your love life. Monday and Wednesday will be ideal days to make a decision regarding your sex or financial life. Thursday will be “the day” for all important conversations that involve your emotional security in a relationship. Then, on Saturday, the Sun and Uranus will link up in a way that opens up you and your mate to new and unchartered territory in your relationship. It’s all good!

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

There’s no way around it: You’ll have a serious choice to make about your intimate life this week. Are you happy with the one who shares your bed? If not, admit it. If you are, however, then it’s time to ask yourself why you’re hiding something from him or her. Come on, you know you are … even if it’s a lie of omission just to protect your mate. Stop lying to yourself, Aries — you know you’re only trying to protect yourself. It’s time to access your courage and be willing to share what it is you take great pains to avoid.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

A deep conversation with your mate will bring you closer this week. On Monday, Mercury and Saturn will connect in your relationship sector, allowing you to make a realistic decision that’s long overdue. This may have to do with a change in how you handle finances together. Perhaps you’ll take on a joint account or loan, or one of you will help dig the other out of a financial hole. Your ability to achieve security in your relationship and your finances at the same time will be high. Use it well.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

With the Moon touring your romance sector from late Wednesday afternoon into Friday night, you’ll have a stronger emotional focus on matters of the heart. These will be ideal days to go on a first date with someone special if you’re single. If you’re attached, you’ll have an opportunity to rekindle the sparks between you and your lover. On Saturday, the Sun will send a supportive beam to Uranus, and your relationship will feel a bolt of stimulation, thanks to an event on your social calendar. It’ll be a little “out there,” but that’s exactly what you’ll enjoy most about it.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Are you and your new sweetheart ready for a commitment? This week, you may decide that the answer is a resounding “yes!” Expect a firm decision between Monday and Wednesday. Also, on Wednesday, if you’re already in a committed relationship you and your partner might have a conversation about starting a family, or, if you already have children, adding to your clan. No matter what’s happening in your love life, Thursday will be a day of mutual indulgence. Go ahead and spoil the one you love — just a little!

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Love might be an adventure this week, and if so you’ll feel determined to make the most of it. If you’re feeling a sense of wanderlust, you might decide to take matters into your own hands and arrange an impromptu trip with your sweetheart. You and your love may have talked about visiting an exotic locale that’s interested you both for quite some time, and it’s possible you will decide by Saturday that now is the time to go for it. Living your life out loud is your motto, Leo, and this week you plan on doing exactly that.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

A creative project you and your sweetheart are working on may be your focus this week. Expect to make great strides in this endeavor, especially by Wednesday. You might also talk more about ways to have fun with your lover — both in and out of the bedroom. What hobbies or other recreational activities do you enjoy together? Do you have a shared passion besides each other? This will be an ideal week to explore whatever it is that gives you both joy as a couple.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

The Moon will tour your sign from late Wednesday afternoon until Friday night, prompting you to wear your heart on your sleeve. You’ll easily reveal your emotions to someone special, and this honesty is exactly what needs to happen to move a burgeoning relationship forward. Don’t waste your time with anxiety — honor your genuine feelings and share them with who matters most to you. On Saturday, a snap decision between you and your partner will excite you. You’ll see the possibilities that lay ahead.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

When it comes to your love life, you’ll be dead serious about whatever you say to your mate this week. If you make a promise, you have every intention to keep your word and you’ll go to the ends of the earth to make sure that happens. If you don’t mean exactly what you say, then you’re not going to say it. A significant pledge or decision with your lover might take place by Wednesday, and if so it’ll be something that adds depth to your already solid bond. If single, you may yearn for a deeper connection with someone on Saturday and Sunday.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may feel overly optimistic about finances on Thursday, and as a result you may purchase an extravagant gift for your partner. Alternatively, you and your mate could decide to make an investment based on hope and faith. Take a step back and make sure you’re not putting your money into something that’s not secure. A little risk may be fine, but throwing caution to the wind altogether may cost you both — big time. If single, you might suddenly meet someone on Saturday who makes your knees weak. Delicious!

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

When your lover is your best friend, you have a special kind of blessing in relationship. On Wednesday, you’ll likely feel you’ve won the cosmic jackpot in that sense. The capacity you have to experience social simpatico and a true camaraderie with your lover will be incredible. Then, on Thursday, you and your partner might decide to learn something new together. Consider a class, workshop or even a webinar. Intellectual stimulation will bring you closer in every way possible.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

With the Moon touring your 8th House of Intimacy from Monday through Wednesday afternoon, you may feel deep desires stirring inside of you that will be impossible to ignore. Perhaps you’re longing to be with someone, but your fear of rejection keeps you from initiating any potentially meaningful contact. Or, it’s possible that you’re in a relationship but feel extremely vulnerable about revealing too much too fast. The Moon in this part of your chart will help break down your walls. Surrender.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your emotional focus will be on relationships between Monday and Wednesday, thanks to the Moon touring your 7th House of Partnership. During these days you may forge a deeper connection with your mate — or at least you’ll try. One thing is certain: You’ll have an almost intuitive grasp on what your sweetheart is feeling early in the week. Use it to nurture your bond rather than make your lover feel exposed. On Thursday, you and your love can expect a magnificent and socially fulfilling adventure. Wonderful!
