Weekly Horoscopes

 ARIES (March 21-April 19)
With the Sun in the obscure twelfth house at this time of year, you’re normally a little off your game, but not so this year. Not only is beautiful Venus lighting up your life but Jupiter is also on side and set to bring blessings of one sort or another. For many Aries, home and family are the focus for all the astrological bounty, for others it is an affair of the heart. But even if you feel this forecast has nothing to do with your life, somewhere there is a little nugget of gold which in time will bring great happiness.
Finding the joy.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
Spring is not quite here but these stars hold the promise of growth and fresh shoots. Maybe you turned down an offer or opportunity some while back; if so, it could return. On the other hand, you could have been waiting for a situation to reveal its potential, and now there are clear signs of success. There’s a lot to be said for keeping a positive outlook even without confirmation that you are on the right track, but after the winter of discontent we’ve been through, here at last come some influences that offer hope. Believe, Taurus. Believe.
Believe.


GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Money, money, money! On paper, this is a positive period for finances and all things that boost your self-worth. An investment could pay off handsomely or you could see an increase in your income. Then again, self-worth isn’t just about money and material assets, it’s about the value people place on you and what you offer as a person. With this in mind, if someone isn’t treating you as you deserve or you have been given less than you were expecting, vote with your feet. When we believe in ourselves, other people soon catch on.
Self-belief.

CANCER (June 21- July 22)
Jupiter turns direct marking the end of a period in which you may have nurtured doubts about the amount of time and energy you were spending on an endeavour or a relationship. If you do not get a sign in the next ten days that your efforts are going to be rewarded, then maybe you should indeed funnel your energies in other directions. However, sometimes Cancer Crabs need to be more direct in their demands and expectations, and in this astrological climate, you should seize the moment and show people that you mean business.
Toot your horn.


LEO (July 23-August 23)
In a little over three months, Jupiter will enter your sign beginning a year-long season of growth. However, for Jupiter to deliver its promise, the ground must be prepared. Under the current planetary influences, this is the ideal time to plant seeds that you hope will bloom in the months to come. If you have an idea, start putting the flesh on the bones of it, so to speak. Whatever your ambition, don’t leave it to the cosmos to make it happen: you have to get behind it. Build-it-and-it-will-come sort of thing. Use this week’s vibrant alignments to get things moving and motoring.
Putting your money where your mouth is.


VIRGO (Aug 24-Sept22)
The cosmos is in rest and repair mode, so while this does not preclude events of the unusual or unexpected kind, the general trend is upbeat and conducive to progress. The planetary focus remains on relationships, whether people are pursuing you for your charms and talents or you are working on building and strengthening bonds with business partners or life loves. Working as a team on a specific goal helps one-on-one relationships grow and prosper, and with Jupiter in the area of collaborations turning direct, a business or joint endeavor could be about to blossom.
Teamwork.


LIBRA (Sept 23 - Oct 22)
Venus is moving away from Saturn and Neptune, leaving her free to do her best work on your love-life in particular and relationships in general. And with Jupiter turning direct, this could turn out to be a very happy and successful week. Even if you’re still struggling with a long-standing situation, there could be small shifts which will eventually make for a mighty breakthrough. Plus, if it seems your efforts are not meeting with success, keep on plugging because April’s influences could deliver the results you have been hoping for.
Keep on keeping on!


SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov 21)
Respite from the storm. If it seems you’ve been dealing with one problem after another since the beginning of the year, it is time to step back and regroup. You may have gone as far as you can with a situation, and you must now leave it to others (or the cosmos) to do the work. On the other hand, having pushed yourself to the brink recently, you can afford to take the pedal off the metal. Jupiter turns direct and trines Mercury, opening up new territory and encouraging you to go out of your comfort zone. Signs of spring are here.
Signs of spring.


SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21)

Over the past few months Jupiter, your ruler, has been in retrograde in the area of shared resources, which may explain why money has been short – in some cases because a partner’s income has been lost or reduced – or there seem to have been constant issues over finances. On Wednesday, Jupiter turns direct, which brings this long season of frustration to a close. Maybe not overnight, but in the next few weeks, you should start to see improvements and at the very least, you will be able to make decisions that you have felt unable to reach.
A turn in the tide.


CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19)
Jupiter has been gracing the zone of relating for some nine months, so already you may have formed new and positive alliances or been on the receiving end of someone’s love and admiration. Not so? Well, since mid-November, this planet of growth has been in retrograde, placing obstacles in the way of good relations and presiding over delays and rethinks. Now Jupiter heads into direct motion, reversing that trend. By the end of March, there should be a noticeable difference in one or more relationships with the result that some Capricorns will be formalizing a business or romantic partnership.
A change in the wind.


AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18)

If you have been making little progress with a matter, there are signs that it is ready to be resolved. Maybe not this week but shortly thereafter. Mercury remains in retrograde so more information is yet to come, and with Jupiter turning direct, good will and optimism are in greater supply. The solution to a deadlocked problem is likely to be a change of perspective – you’re going to see matters differently and/or so too are others involved. Now would be a good time to reopen negotiations or to give a situation another chance.
If at first you don’t succeed…


PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20)

This week marks the end of an astrological chapter that has inspired a hurricane of controversy. And while the world has shifted on its axis in terms of global events, you too may have experienced some shocks to the system. Now it is time to reflect and review before setting off in new directions or getting back to business. Jupiter turns direct, which will encourage more positivity and enable you to focus on those things in life that bring you joy. We can’t turn back the clock but we can make peace with our fate so to speak.
Positive energy.
