January 2012 Horoscopes

Happy 2012 :))

Aries
21st March – 20th April
At some point this month you are going to feel like you’ve come full circle on a particular issue you’ve been looking for answers to. The good news is you aren’t chasing your tail on this, the very awareness you are back where you started actually means the solution is soon to appear. It’s likely to coincide somehow with the new moon on the23rd, but before that, grin and bear some work challenges on the 4th, 12th and 19th; and midmonth allow love to go with the flow, when friendship might turn into romance, or romance might turn into friendship.

Taurus
21st April – 21st May
Let the momentum slowly build, no need to push the pace for January. Up to midmonth you might be pondering new perspectives on purchases and finance; or perhaps literally experiencing new vistas as travel is in there too, especially around the 12th. Around the 14th friendship feels satisfying, as does any group participation or teamwork. From the 21st its all about career and longterm ambition; new moon on 23rd inspires you to expansion, but don’t stretch the leaps of faith too much or you’ll feel like you’re making promises you don’t believe you can keep; it’s a slow build up remember.

Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
Your ruler Mercury is at odds with feisty Mars on the 1st, which means squabbles or sharp words might make you feel you’ve got 2012 off on the wrong foot, but fear not, it’s not the end of the story as a new peace you can trust is developing from strong desire to clear up old disagreements. See what happens around the 21st regarding this. But before that, enjoy a freedom orientated full moon on the 9th, and some spellbinding intensity in love and romance from the 13th. Confidence is shaky from the 19th so work at a perspective that works for you.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
You are bound to ruffle a few feathers early January, as your focus, and therefore your direction, is set on getting the best out of 2012 no matter what. Others will have other ideas about what’s best at times, simply because they are used to you being a certain way, or used to them having their own way. But a full moon in your own sign on the 9th amplifies your unwillingness to compromise on your quest for the best, emotionally. About time too. Midmonth, romance sweeps you off your feet, and from the 21st you stop trying to control the uncontrollable.

Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
You have some unexpected changes to your routine first half of this month, some of which are down to your own bright ideas, some come seemingly out the blue. From midmonth there’s a true romantic atmosphere; not too soft and slushy though, as communication is solid, supportive and productive. There are some secrets too, but not everything has to be up for discussion just now (perhaps from 23rd under an enlightening new moon). From the 19th don’t undermine yourself with shaky self-belief; mostly because others can take advantage and get bossy unless you stand firm with faith in yourself.


Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
It’s going to take some focus to respond rather than react, and sometimes retreat is the fastest way forward as January gets underway; one situation in particular seems to have gathered a momentum, but there’s light at the end of the tunnel on that one, possibly coming into view around the 21st. A full moon on the 11th brings surprises and delights linked to friendships old and new, and let love rule from the 14th, when Venus begins a journey through your relationship zone, and don’t argue for your limitations from the 19th, especially when it comes to finances.

Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
It’s so easy to get the wrong end of the stick with others as January begins, as certain people seem to be saying one thing and doing another. It might seem that once started there’s no stopping it, but misunderstandings can cease from around the 21st, when a burst of clarity brings forth order from any chaos. Use the full moon on the 10th to evaluate your real emotions about current long-term plans (especially when it comes to career direction), and midmonth is seriously special for romance, when it’s great for new love or renewal of love.

Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
Grievances that come to light as January gets underway can niggle on, simply because it all seems to strike right in your self-esteem, but it’s much easier to rise above it all as the month goes on, especially around the 21st when a real solution presents itself that doesn’t want to mess with your pride. New, sometimes revolutionary, views and perspectives are coming with a mind-opening, eye-opening full moon on the 9th, which makes you ready to speak your truth on the 13th. Love and romance looks up from the 14th; especially on the 14th itself.

Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
Sag has a reputation for blunt speaking, which can be one of your most endearing qualities when you’re feeling in tune with yourself and the world, but as January opens, you’re a bit at odds with everything, including yourself, so it’s easy to put your foot right in it, especially at work. Damage limitation might be the best way forward till the 21st, when things seem to right themselves, but a new moon on the 23rd also links to communication, challenging you to keep the faith and your perspective. Success means speak only when you feel ready, not when others need you to.

Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
Mercury into your sign from the 8th means everything seems to revolve around communication all month. For example, during a relationship focused full moon on the 9th, it all links to home and family matters, as well as finding freedom from the ghosts of memories past, and around the 13th you’re a super sleuth when it comes to information gathering, but cool-headed and coy when it comes to revealing your own secrets. Oh, and on the 27th words only fail you whenever you fear the word failure; so don’t.


Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
Old communication issues around friendships or groups come back to haunt at the beginning of January, but there’s resolution and solution around the 21st. Full moon on the 9th is full of divine dream inspiration for you, so let intuitive messages reveal themselves. Midmonth you are loved up and feeling like you’re in heaven with the door shut, especially on the 13th. The sun energises your sign from the 21st with your annual new moon on the 23rd which is great for setting goals and seeding intentions, especially related to home and family, as Jupiter is encouraging expansion there.

Pisces
19th February – 20th March
Relationships looking at a long range view (especially work relationships) are challenging to say the least as January gets going, but this clears around the 21st thanks to your team spirit and dedication to the bigger picture. Romance has a fate-filled feel to it from midmonth, in the nicest of ways, especially around the 13th. When Venus moves into your sign from the 14th there’s development and expansion through communication; at that time you have the magic touch when it comes to getting a positive message across, so use it on the 19th when limitation planet Saturn seems out to curb your party mood.

December Horoscopes

Aries
21st March – 20th April
There’s potential for big transformation around work and career this month; planetary movement right from the start of December symbolises deep dynamics that push emotional buttons you forgot you had. It’s all good though (especially around the 5th) because it’s that strong emotional focus that motivates you to clear your path forward. Around the lunar eclipse on the 10th there’s sudden movement forward from you, in a way that might surprise you, and the new moon on the 24th points to change that’s a bumpy kind of ride, but with shock absorbers that are working well for you.


Taurus
21st April – 21st May
This is a month to feel positive change of direction happening in many areas, especially with regard to any self-development work you’ve been looking for results from over recent months. It’s because Jupiter ends a long retrograde (moving backwards) cycle in your sign on the 24th, coinciding with a new moon (new phase) in your beliefs/perspective angle. In other words, there’s a change in your outlook that is going to make you aware of new opportunities. Till the 24th, enjoy some loved up vibes around the 5th and communication you can trust from the 14th.


Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
There’s some deep and passionate vibes happening for Gemini during December; right from the first week there’s a lot of energy and emotion around significant relationships, especially of the romantic kind, that makes even a lover’s tiff somehow less irritating and more interesting. There’s a full moon eclipse in your sign on the 10th, which can help sort out some full on feelings, and your ruler Mercury moves forward from the 14th, moving relationships forward in a big way. It’s the new moon on the 24th that feels most profound though: a transformation regarding trust and intimacy is on its way.


Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
Relationships get deep and meaningful this month, with a sense of mystery that feels compelling, emotionally challenging and rewarding in the same measure. It most likely makes some sense around the 5th, so hang onto that understanding for when things feel more confounding later. Career or long term ambitions are set to shift suddenly in a forward feeling direction around the 10th, and in an intensely transforming way around the 24th. Also, a noticeable improvement to endless day to day schedule changes or hold-ups happens from the 14th which can ease frustration no end.


Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
It’s your day to day routine that is transforming this month. Profound change is what you’ve been reaching for some time, and here it is. This has links to work and career, especially from the 24th when opportunity planet Jupiter moves forward for the first time in months, but also there’s a health and fitness focus, as you hold the stamina and determination for longterm transformation in this area of your life right now. Love moves forward from the 10th perhaps from a sudden change of perspective, and love looks up from the 21st when Venus begins a journey through your relationship chart.


Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
There’s only so much information-gathering or talking it out that can be done before a decision has to be made, which is why circling round subjects feels repetitive and argumentative at times this month. Fact based, logic-loving Virgo sometimes gets bamboozled by emotionally based decisions, yet this is precisely what is required (especially around the 10th during a career/ambition related lunar eclipse), so allowing yourself to be led by the heart rather than the head is what it’s all about for creative projects, love and romance, and fun and entertainment for December. And it’s much easier to go with this flow from the 14th.


Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
Restlessness in relationships over recent months suddenly makes sense from midmonth; there’s a feeling of liberation and freedom from the past somehow, as well as a change of direction regarding communication, which makes you feel things are moving forward in positive ways. However holiday time brings holiday family dynamics; deep breaths are needed around the 19th and 24th, as there’s certainly a rare intensity to it all but it’s worth seeing through as there’s also a profound sense of confidence and trust emerging from it all which helps draw a line under the old year and look forward to the new.


Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
It’s the kind of month that Scorpio was built for: events with the kind of emotional depth to test your limits and challenge your faith, which move you forward positively into new territory that you enjoy the benefit of now rather than endure the wait for later results. For example, communication gets deep, personal and revealing, but endlessly rewarding all month, especially 24th, while money matters are moving from 14th, and relationships end months of backtracking or backing off and dive through open doors and new opportunities by the final week of December.


Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
There’s a feeling of going round in circles regarding a work conflict or challenge this month, however there is a resolution despite the déjà vu feeling about it all. There’s a transformation in store linked to finance or property matters, most significantly around new moon time on the 24th, but all month there’s a recurring theme of letting go of attempts to control the uncontrollable. It’s all deep and meaningful underneath as its reflecting change within yourself about getting comfortable with unknown or unknowable aspects of a situation, it’s kind of making peace with your own desire to trust things always work out ok.


Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
Wow, there’s an intensity about you this month, a cool charisma that oozes mystery to others, yet nothing is a mystery to you for long right now as your penetrating gaze doesn’t miss a trick. Not surprisingly this bodes extremely well for matters of the heart, spicing up romance no end, but it’s also about discovering new aspects of yourself and your ability to hold your own in unknown or unexpected territory. There’s a powerful new moon in your sign on the 24th which speaks of all this; there’s highs and lows, but trust yourself and nothing’s beyond you.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
A full moon eclipse on the 10th amplifies your awareness of the new creative focus you are developing. Also on 10th, your ruler Uranus changes direction, which parallels a significant turning point in you, a feeling of release or liberation that propels you forward suddenly. It’s likely to link to communication somehow, especially as there’s much going on there regarding your relationship to group dynamics; other’s opinions, no matter how shouty they get just don’t faze you. A bit of heckling seems to egg you on, in fact. Around the 24th, knowledge is power, so it’s time to get to know yourself more.


Pisces
19th February – 20th March
There are highs and lows regarding friendships this month, they can be difficult, demanding or draining in their dynamics, yet you wouldn’t swap them for the world. The conflict makes you closer really, which is the message of the new moon on the 24th, along with a message about feeling more appreciative about your own resources and resourcefulness. Money matters feel more freed up from the 10th, and there’s a turning point or change of direction regarding career and long term plans from the 14th. Finally there’s a feel good factor to communication from 24th that opens doors of opportunity.

November horoscopes

Aries
21st March – 20th April
A lovely extended aspect between Venus and Mercury for the first half of November (especially around the 3rd) means anything related to travel or education turns into a truly beautiful adventure; again around 25th when new moon eclipse indicates new adventures to come, maybe with echoes of the past. Ruler Mars moves into problem-solving mode from the 11th, and gets at ‘to do’ lists with gusto. There’s also strong focus on cash and career, including around the 18th, a rare line-up of planets moving practical and productive energy between these areas of your life. It’s a particularly positive time, so make the most of it.

Taurus
21st April – 21st May
There’s a theme of trust, and being more trusting this month, and the key is resisting holding on to what you fear to lose; it’s a repeating theme through events in various ways and it seems to link strongly to communication. Around the 18th there’s a beautiful line-up of planets, including Jupiter in your sign, encouraging you to be more of yourself more of the time, and opportunities abound to do so. From the 25th you might be backtracking on an issue that requires your trust; wanting to take your time and gather more info seems appropriate for now.

Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
Big month for relationships; it includes all relationships, partnerships, contracts and agreements, but there’s an extra smile for romance, as Venus and your ruler Mercury join forces for an extended period up to midmonth. On the 23rd Mercury moves retrograde (appears to move backward), which means you’re taking the scenic rather than the shortest route to solve issues. There’s also an adventurous new moon eclipse in this area of your chart on the 25th indicating significant new beginnings in the process of growing and unfolding now that have long-term impact for the future.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
Up to midmonth, problems are melting like lemon drops as Venus and Mercury bring some strong and sweet solutions to issues, especially around the 3rd when sudden ideas and impulses to make career moves pay off big time. Around 18th there’s an easy flow of energy around friendship, romance and communication which leads to expansion, opportunity and transformation. Mercury retrograde from the 23rd suggests that coming from a different perspective or angle on a stuck situation might loosen up the energy, and a faith-filled new moon eclipse on the 25th helps you stay positive toward tricky work relationships end of month.


Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
A challenging aspect between Mars and Neptune involves your sign on the 6th, and suggests it’s easy to feel undermined or ignored in certain relationships right now. Before you imagine your actions or efforts come to nowt, examine your tendency to imagine the worst, as Neptune amplifies both dreams and nightmares. In other words, appearances can be particularly deceptive right now, and seem to match how you feel about things regardless of facts. Rise to the wildly positive vibes around the 18th, which have a special focus on your career and long-term ambition. It’s seriously positive, especially for expansion plans.


Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
Your comfort zone gets a few prods and pushes this month as there’s plenty of good opportunities to expand horizons into the unfamiliar and unknown. Motivated Mars moves into your sign from the 6th, which helps hold the courage of your convictions (especially approx 18th and 24th), and once Mercury begins its retrograde phase from the 23rd there’s a strong focus on home, family, or those that feel like family, with a feeling of reconnection, reunion or possible relocation. There’s a sweet harmony in love up to midmonth, especially with communication, and an unpredictable but fun vibe around 27th.


Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
Up to midmonth is an exceptional time for communication, with your ruler Venus moving in close harmony with Mercury for an extended period. Mercury retrogrades on the 23rd (appears to move backwards) which might change your perspective or the direction of yours or another’s thoughts and words, but it won’t undo anything you have achieved earlier in the month. Around the 18th there’s a rare line-up of planets encouraging a deep sense of trust and faith in situations even with all the unknown factors you’re dealing with right now. It’s not misplaced trust either.

Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
Finances and resources are a focus up to midmonth; a lovely extended meeting between Venus and Mercury in this area of your chart means communication goes well and gives you reason to keep the faith. Mercury retrogrades (appears to move backwards) from the 23rd, but don’t be fooled into thinking things really are in reverse, and the new moon eclipse here on the 25th is for feeling more faith about what’s to come. Meanwhile there’s a really fabulous aspect around the 18th that expands, deepens and moves all relationships in the right direction, and especially in romance.


Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
Wow, what a month for Sag. Positive vibes abound, beginning with a lengthy meeting between Venus and Mercury in your sign till the 10th, which means sweet harmony in your communication (very creative and unusually entertaining too, around the 3rd). Cash and career get a helping hand from the universe around the 18th, then Sun moves into your sign on the 23rd, putting you in the spotlight. Mercury retrogrades in your sign same day, helping you reconnect with aspects of yourself you thought lost or left behind, and a new moon eclipse on the 25th, also in your sign, sets strong intentions for self-belief.

Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
Venus and Mercury bring sweet dreams till the 10th (and maybe some inspired solutions around the 3rd). Cash flow takes some imagination around the 6th, and a friendship filled full moon on the 10th feels fun. There’s more enjoyment from midmonth when real opportunities come into view for expansion, transformation and regeneration. Nothing pie in the sky here; ideas are solid and grounded and built to last. Overall for November, whenever you trust the process rather than fear the unknown, the reward is refreshment and renewal.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
There’s a fabulous vibe around groups and gatherings this month, so there’s more friendship and fun to be had, as well as it being a great time for networking and making good connections; and reconnecting too, as Mercury retrogrades from the 23rd, bringing you back in tune with faces and places from the past, in a new way. In a general sense, November requires you to rely on intuition and gut instinct maybe more than usual, but the benefits and opportunities that come from this are worth the struggle to stop second-guessing yourself.

Pisces
19th February – 20th March
This is a totally brilliant month for career and/or long term plans and ambitions: you’ve charismatic communication that might bring sudden and unexpected financial benefits or opportunities for moving forward in new ways, and you’ve the courage of your convictions that makes you bolder and more assertive with others. Mercury retrograde from the 23rd might put you in touch with ideas or opportunities from the past you thought lost, and an eclipse on the 25th supports your desire for it all to feel like a fabulous adventure

October Horoscopes

Aries
21st March – 20th April
The month opens with a leap of faith for you. It’s easy to overstretch at this time though, so look before you leap. The full moon on the 12th is in your sign, which means relationships are at the forefront of your mind more than ever, and it’s all about balancing priorities. The sun moves into your angle of trust and sharing from the 23rd and a new moon here on the 26th sheds light on how much you are willing to share of yourself with others. It’s all about trust versus control of the unknown; emotionally and financially.

Taurus
21st April – 21st May
Try not to overreact to family dramas during first week of Oct, as someone is out to press your buttons. Don’t bite, instead work off your frustrations through projects related to home; it’s much more productive and easier to organise and fix. Meanwhile there’s a dreamy and starry-eyed influence around work and career, which means rose tinted glasses are to your advantage this month, especially around the 7th, 12th, and 21st. There’s also a romantic new moon in your relationship zone on the 26th which hints at a big and beautiful future ahead.

Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
With your ruler Mercury meeting limiting Saturn on the 6th there could be a bit of creative block going on during first week of Oct, but don’t try too hard to overcome it, go with the flow to get back in your flow, don’t pay too much attention to what others have to say about it all, and by midmonth you are back on track, more than before. There’s a psychic new moon on the 26th, so follow your hunches; in fact most of this month has that kind of edge for you, be bold about what you sense: if it feels good, it must be true for you.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
Pleasure seeker Venus starts a journey through your house of fun and entertainment from the 9th, so follow your bliss and go where your heart wants to take you. This might be a challenge around the 12th, during a full on full moon in your house of career and reputation, when the pace of working life quickens and responsibilities at home still call your attention, but the mood still moves you toward enjoyment and fulfilment. Romance is imaginative and deep this month, especially around the 26th when the new moon gives you all kinds of new ideas.

Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
Don’t over egg the pudding when it comes to profile raising in work and career early in the month; it’s not about less being more when it comes to presentation, it’s just easy to come on too strong with mighty Mars on a mission to get you noticed. Around full moon time on the 12th there’s the dilemma of whether to tell all or keep quiet regarding a certain situation; it’s all about feeling the burden of responsibility lies with you on what to do, but really, there’s no right or wrong way to play it. Look forward to end of the month as it’s great for career expansion and satisfying schedule changes.

Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
There’s a sense of limitation around finances during the first week, which puts you in a responsible mood for the month, especially around full moon time on the 12th. You are on a roll with work at that time too, so make the most of what you find or find out then. Communication is interesting all month; new moon on the 26th brings new contacts and conversation but misunderstandings are easy to reach at times, especially 31st. Meanwhile, romance is intent on broadening your horizons all month.

Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
At times this month you might feel extra pressure on your shoulders, extra weight of responsibility, especially when it comes to communication: what to say and when best to say it, seems to be filled with extra significance. A relationship-themed full moon on the 12th gets you all defensive and digging your heels in and there’s a choice to keep your distance or keep moving closer, and this theme is echoed in money matters too, especially in final week. Basically it’s a case of who you want to invest in and how much.


Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
It’s a busy old month for Scorpio; lots happening involving your sign, including Venus arriving on the 9th, followed by Mercury on the 13th, the sun on the 23rd and a fabulous new moon on the 26th. It all bodes well for relationships, with partners wanting to push ahead with contracts or commitments, the question is are you ready too? There’s also a flurry of activity around work and career plans; you are in thick of sorting out where you stand and where your next steps might take you, so use the new moon energy for setting some new intentions.

Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
Up to midmonth, a friendship or group contact might feel strained. There’s a burden to stay upbeat or on top of weighty issues for the sake of keeping the peace, however you’re right to feel it’s not your responsibility to do so. The full moon on the 12th seems to bring it all to a head and sorts your priorities, but wait for the new moon on the 26th for bright solutions, for this and other matters, as inspiration hits when you don’t look too hard for it. This includes money matters, as there’s a welcome opportunity coming end of the month.

Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
There’s a pressure you might feel building up, regarding long-term plans and ambitions, felt keenly in the first week, and especially around the full moon on the 12th. There’s something about this kind of pressure that you thrive on though, so enjoy the creative conflict generated as it’s likely to be highly productive in the long run as it’s getting you focused and clear, which makes some difficult choices easier to make. The mood lightens around new moon time on the 26th: friendships, groups and gatherings are the focus, so fresh faces and new experiences are heading your way.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
Up to midmonth, events are holding your attention toward beliefs or opinions that have held you back, or that you’re now using to hold yourself back, and a feisty full moon on the 12th suggests that you don’t argue for those limitations anymore. Keep going the way you are going with career moves though, as there’s plenty to feel comfy and positive about, even at end of month when certain professional relationships get prickly. You are a natural at the art of respectful emotional detachment, so you can use your skill to great effect there.

Pisces
19th February – 20th March
There’s a reluctance to jump in at the deep end this month, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. So don’t. It’s a step by step thing, as it is with money matters too; finances are at the forefront of your mind, especially around the 12th, but you’re firmly in sensible mode, so this fair and square attitude helps deal effectively with your own concerns. There’s an emphasis on travel or education too; whatever it takes to broaden horizons is where you are headed.

Horoscopes for September

Aries
21st March – 20th April
Your ruler Mars moves into the most creative angle of your chart from the 19th; it’s all about what makes your heart sing, so follow your bliss and the entertainment value of that. Interesting month relationship-wise; there’s a cosy comfort zone feel around the 10th, but 17th speaks of sudden moves and unpredictability; both extremes seem to feed events around new moon time on the 27th, which is very much about you and your partner balancing new priorities. It’s also big for work at that time too; perhaps a bit of an overhaul going on somehow somewhere.

Taurus
21st April – 21st May
Lovely vibe for big change and transformation up to midmonth; it feels natural, easy to accommodate, and very much wanted, despite indicating some doors closing it’s easy to trust that what you need will be there when you need it. It’s lovely for love around the 10th, and from the 17th there’s not much time lag between problem and solution, which makes problems much sweeter to bear, and new moon on the 27th focuses your interest suddenly towards health and fitness; make the most of that moment, as your attention can also wander when it comes to that subject.


Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
Around the 8th there’s potential for confusion or uncertainty in communication or connections; this might echo events from early August, or perhaps a resurfacing issue is a chance to tie loose ends or find certainty over vagueness. Love dynamics are at their most passionate at the end of the month but before that, go with the flow and no trying to force circumstances your way. New moon on 27th is inspirational for you; perhaps a group, gathering or friendship is your catalyst for creative outpouring.


Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
Go for communication (especially in romance) around the 10th as you hold a perfect blend in attitude, pushy yet harmony-seeking. Full moon on 9th brings feelings of fulfilment from a learning curve; the joy really is in how you view the journey, which is good to remember around the 17th. Finance/career opportunities can surface suddenly around the 23rd, and new moon in your comfort zone on the 27th is a catalyst for lightning fast changes linked to home and family, as well as more work related freedom and independence.


Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
There’s a temporary blind spot in love around the 8th. Love-struck Leo’s might not feel the full picture then, but also this could be a residue of events from early August (hard to feel heard and easy to feel absence). It’s temporary. Mars into Leo from 19th means motivation is high and momentum easy to maintain. You want to keep moving and active, and your view of what’s possible is positive and attainable (anything’s possible around the 23rd). New moon on 27th ushers a new phase around routines and schedules; change is calling you, quite intensely at times.

Virgo
Up to around the 10th might feel like groundhog day, recalling events approx early August. Mercury is back in your sign from that time, around the 9th, so there’s a feeling of completion at last regarding certain situations left undone or undefined for far too long. Full moon on 12th deepens emotions and meaningful connection within all relationships, especially romance; and a beautiful aspect between Mercury in your sign to lucky planet Jupiter around the 14th opens your mind (and therefore the door of opportunity) towards your heart’s desire/s.


Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
Quite quiet up to midmonth, but things get going (and when they do, they really do) once Venus, then Sun, moves into your sign on 15th and 23rd. Events around 17th put you in touch with some intense emotions – it’s a chance to let go of feelings about past relationships that are not relevant for who you are now, and 26th is a full on kind of time, in a fulfilling kind of way and it’s when Mercury joins Sun and Venus in your sign. New moon in Libra on 27th means new emotional phase; it’s great for goal setting and getting things into perspective.


Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
Fabulous first week. Your ruler Pluto links up lovely with expansion planet Jupiter. It’s superb for relationships, and for big relationship talks. No more moving in circles, things actually spiral with development when these two planets are working together. Work problems are highlighted around the 17th, but don’t struggle for solution as it’s due toward end of month with a psychic new moon on the 27th, which stimulates your 6th sense. Trust that you just know what to say and when to say it at this time.


Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
Your ruler Jupiter links up to transformation planet Pluto on the 2nd, which indicates an excellent period of expansion and development in store this month, particularly around the subject of finances. It’s a kind of clear the clutter urge in general that hits you, and as ever with Pluto, the challenge is to let go of the urge to control the uncontrollable, and trust the process despite feeling slightly in the dark. New moon on the 27th indicates a new phase for friendship, and strain or tension in relationships around the 29th is temporary, while the urge for commitment is longterm.


Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
You are going through a bit of a transformation with yourself at times this month, maybe literally with a make-over or style change, but also through your impact on situations; creatively, romantically, it’s all feeling powerful and profound and you’re the one who makes it happen. Career or long-term plans dominate your focus from the 15th, especially around 17th/18th when you feel particularly absorbed by what’s unfolding, and around 27th when the direction of events seem wildly unpredictable for a time. The 29th is a time for commitment to direction, and you are comfortable with the terms and conditions.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
Relationships are a bit up in the air for a while this month, and it’s you who feels a bit foggy with details or oblivious about what others are trying to convey. It’s a temporary blind spot that changes from the 19th, and especially on the 23rd, when passionate Mars sharpens your focus, powers up your intentions and quickens the pace of events around relationships, and also travel and education. Some changes that come your way feel out of your hands, but try to reach for trust that what you need when you need it is part of what comes too.

Pisces
19th February – 20th March
Friendships, groups and gatherings are a focus of growth, change and development all month, and sometimes it’s plain sailing, sometimes a rollercoaster, but the underlying vibe is positive progress, even with a rather challenging new moon on the 27th. Romance feels fun and contented around the 10th, and deepens in intimacy after midmonth. Finances, especially joint or shared interests have an unconventional approach around the 17th and a strong feeling of responsibility around the 29th but mixing friendship and financial interests can activate power struggles, especially around new moon time.

August Horoscopes

Aries
21st March – 20th April
You are protective of priorities regarding home and family, especially around the 9th, as it’s your priorities that feel prodded or pushed, either by a work situation or by certain long-range plans or ambitions. It’s easy to feel backed into a corner at that time, which can result in some uncharacteristic behaviour - all down to your unwillingness to compromise on the freedom your current desires tempt you towards. But a fabulous new moon on the 29th in the problem-solving area of your chart indicates solutions are ready to show; it’s just a matter of time before things click into place.


Taurus
21st April – 21st May
It’s all about keeping things perspective, firstly regarding matters at home or regarding family and close emotional attachments, as it’s easy to overstretch or overdo things, especially during the first week. The same goes for career matters, as Neptune’s return into this area of your chart can play on your imagination and make you feel invisible or overlooked, or that you just aren’t seeing what’s important. There’s a turning point though from the 30th with Jupiter retrograde, when you become the change you want to see.

Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
It’s Mercury retrograde time again from the 2nd; always a review period for Gemini, and a time for looking at situations in different ways. But with Mercury clashing with foggy Neptune there’s a blind spot in your perspective which means you aren’t getting the full picture just yet on key situations, so don’t be too quick to come to firm and final conclusions about anything until you’re confident with clarity; this is likely to be from the 27th, especially around the 29th when sharp and solid new moon energy finds and fills the gaps.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
Communication can get confusing from the first week with Mercury retrograde (appearing to move backwards) while clashing with nebulous Neptune. It’s too easy to take things the wrong way, or spiral in an unwanted direction, so cut yourself and others some slack while things sort themselves out. This is most challenging for relationships around the 9th when what’s been bottled up easily pours forth, and the 24th when you feel limits are stifling, but final week in general holds a turning point and evolution of situations, as a result of those learning curves. There’s a positive to any negative this month.


Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
First week isn’t best for risks and gambles, unless you’re feeling confident and grounded about what you can imagine happening. It’s also not easy to feel clear about relationships now Neptune’s back in that area of your chart, especially around 8th and 21st, but still, the full moon on the 13th might help you sort through this, especially with lovely Venus sparkling in your sign, putting a twinkle in your eye. Your reward for looking before you leap starts with a turning point from the 27th, and the new moon on the 29th is validating a new sense of security.



Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
Mercury retrogrades (appears to move backwards) in your sign from the 2nd, which means a change of direction, or review of an issue, for what feels like very personal reasons. But with foggy Neptune clouding things at the same time, it’s hard to get the facts straight, or to make sense of available info, especially relating to relationships somehow. Give it time and enjoy the journey till the turning point around the 26th. The 9th is volatile but sexy, 23rd is enlightening, and the 29th is amazing: a scintillating new moon in your sign lines you up for special times, now and for the future.


Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
It’s a fun in the sun kind of first week that is sort of the calm before the storm around the 9th, when macho Mars clashes with power-struggle planet Pluto. Sounds ominous but handled with care this kind of confrontation-loving energy can clear the way ahead, as Mars rolls up sleeves to dive into areas deemed too messy to get involved with. This vibe can rumble on through the month in key situations (just don’t get judgemental about whose right and wrong), but oh, romance makes it all worth it around 25th and 29th: a new phase in relationships is ahead.

Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
It’s a ‘trust the process’ kind of month - it’s not time to lose faith and it’s not time to force things into place - especially around the 9th when your planetary rulers, Mars and Pluto, have a volcanic meeting that stirs up all sorts of emotions in response to tricky relationship dynamics. Communication is off on a tangent at work from the 8th, and limitations in general frustrate you around the 24th. But there’s a startlingly brilliant new moon on the 29th which transforms friendships, groups and gatherings, as well as positively influencing all relationships: this new moon means new opportunities for you.


Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
What with Mercury retrograde from the 2nd, there’s likely to be backtracking, retreating and reviewing in relationships. It’s a temporary thing (till the 27th), and positive in the sense that misunderstandings or mistakes increase desire for improvement (absence makes heart fonder, etc). There’s an amazing new moon for your career/finances on the 29th when things start clicking into gear all over the place. Your ruler Jupiter retrogrades from the 30th, so there’s a change of perspective coming, and another review period; especially regarding approach to health and fitness.

Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
Don’t curse delays or reschedules with travel plans; rearrangements might work better and you always get there in the end anyway. Long distance reconnections or reunions are on the cards too; as well as a new twist in journey of education or learning experience, which is especially satisfying around full moon time on the 13th. Relationships are going places too, but maybe into messy dynamics around the 9th, so transform resentment and grudges with understanding. There’s a truly beautiful new moon for you on the 29th; this excellent planet alignment symbolises new and satisfying feelings of alignment between you and your plans.


Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
From the 8th, imaginative Neptune returns to your sign till next Feb. The downside of Neptune is it turns you into a space cadet at times, from all that adventuring down inter-dimensional pathways of your mind (especially around the full moon in your sign on the 13th); there’s also absent mindedness, and emotional overwhelment. The latter works both ways: there’s the kind that melts you into tears over a long lost love on a rainy Sunday, or there’s the kind that melts you into tears over the genius of a top tune belting out through sunny day vibes. Choose wisely. Choose easily.


Pisces
19th February – 20th March
Your ruler Neptune retreats from your sign on the 5th till early next year. Go with the flow of any wispy, misty, or ‘missing out’ kind of vibes (especially around the 9th), as you readjust to having to pick up Neptune’s signal subconsciously again for a while; which means it’s all dream diaries and gut instinct again till next Feb. It’s challenging, as there’s confusion to make sense of in relationships from the 2nd with Mercury retrograde till the 27th; but there’s a shining star of a new moon on the 29th in your relationship house: Love looks lucky, that’s for sure.

July Horoscopes

Aries
21st March – 20th April
A new moon eclipse on the 1st helps you realise where you’ve been holding yourself in a discomfort zone when it comes to certain relationships. Keep lines of communication open on this around the 6th as solutions are in the airwaves. Midmonth asks for balance between career and home life (so much going on for you career wise it’s easy to neglect other areas); then a lovely blue moon on the 30th indicates new, fun and entertaining times suddenly in store; for friendship and in love. You’re the catalyst for it all, so take all the credit.

Taurus
21st April – 21st May
July is a rollercoaster ride of emotional extremes in romance: week one is candlelit, soft focus and sentimental; week two brings out the communication control freak in you, when knowledge is power and you seek what is withheld. Midmonth, a Saturn square makes you stand-offish with self-doubt; but wait till around the 30th when an attention-attracting new moon boosts self-worth and self-esteem in a big way for love and romance, and also helps you appreciate you. It’s also around then you become aware you’ve more friends than you might have realised.


Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
A difficult eclipse on the 1st brings awareness of over-commitments to projects and plans that should be fun but aren’t feeling that way right now. It’s in the realisation you might be overdoing the responsible attitude that you start to let others take up the slack and get contributing creatively in their own way too. In this way, the difficult eclipse becomes a blessing in disguise, helping to focus you more keenly into speaking up and speaking out for yourself when needed. However, remember facts are foggy around a work situation at the end of July, so silence is golden till the full picture becomes clear.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
Big month for you, Cancer: a new moon eclipse on the 1st in your sign, and a blue moon on the 30th. Both indicate significant personal change and direction-shaping events. The eclipse on the 1st raises relationship issues, especially with family. It’s not unusual to feel a lack of support when you need it most, under this planetary pattern, but the positive side is a more potent experience of your own inner strength and stability, especially midmonth. End of the month is about the kind of work and money opportunities that do only seem to happen once in a blue moon.

Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
Events this month seem to build on each other, like a preparation for what happens around the end of July; for example, great communication that might put you in touch with ideas that come in useful later; there’s also career focus from the 7th that boosts confidence and opens doors, but it’s from around the 23rd, when the sun moves into your sign, that things seem to really start taking shape, also during the new moon on the 30th. Neptune indicates temporary lack of focus at that time, especially regarding finances, but don’t let that distract you from what matters most to you.


Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
It’s tempting to burn some bridges this month, when money or property issues overshadow friendship; it’s because in general there’s a strong urge to cut losses and cut loose, in reaction to feelings of restriction that are hugely magnified by the eclipse energy on the 1st. It’s the right instinct, but is the bridge-burning necessary? Only you know for sure. As your intuitive and gut feelings are in great shape right now, you don’t get far with just facts and logic alone, so make sure any decisions are yours and no one else’s, made with heart, not just the head.

Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
Don’t let pressure get to you, especially during the first week, as there’s a responsibility-laden eclipse on the 1st which makes you more aware of feelings of duty, and particularly a fear of disapproval from others if you fail to meet certain obligations. Just knowing this can relieve pressure though, as it’s up to you how much their disapproval really matters. Apart from this there’s good vibes around friendship, and also groups and gatherings, where anything or anyone that is a bit different or unconventional is like a breath of fresh air for you. Romance flows in this vibe too, especially around the 30th.


Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
If you’ve been waiting for news on the career front, there’s potential good news indicated around the 5th. There’s romantic developments around the 7th that feel great; it’s a deeper more stable vibe for attached Scorps, while those looking for love might meet a great opportunity at that time (don’t be afraid to be the one to strike up a conversation). Work is again well-starred from the 23rd when the sun, then Venus, moves into this angle of your chart. The new moon on the 30th symbolises some sparkling new beginnings work-wise. There’s also the indication that you’re mixing business with pleasure too.


Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
Finances feel on a much firmer footing first half of the month; it’s a blend of expansion and transformation thanks to Jupiter/Pluto, as it indicates endless faith in what’s ahead, even though you’re in the dark about the details. It’s a sure way to attract promises that do deliver. It’s an excellent month for travel, especially last minute plans. Romance and travel mix well, particularly around the 30th (new moon); if there’s no literal travel you are going to feel you’re on a journey somehow, either in love or in learning; as education or training feels like food for thought that satisfies.

Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
The new moon eclipse on the 1st falls in your relationship zone. It indicates new paths, new attitudes and perhaps a dynamic distraction from weighty work pressures. This eclipse energises your resolve to stand your ground when it comes to sharing responsibility; you are wanting a more fair and equal distribution of duties, and as long as you stand firm in your knowing that this is possible somehow, the burden of awareness of imbalance won’t sit heavily only on your shoulders. Balance is a recurring theme for you this month, with the message to play as hard as you work.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
There’s the kind of communication that suits you down to the ground this month: enlightening, original, unique, with plenty of unexpected twists and turns; a very satisfying flow encouraging you to look at even difficult current circumstances in a whole new light. The full moon on the 15th emphasises this; go with your flow and watch how things move in your favour when you don’t try too hard to make it all work out, or to make others understand your position. Practice this plenty by the new moon on the 30th, and you’ll gain the brilliant benefits this energy has on offer.


Pisces
19th February – 20th March
The eclipse on the 1st amplifies any creative blocks you have right now. This is a good thing, as it draws attention to why this is happening; it’s all just a case of not fully trusting your own ability, which temporarily pushed you away from your own agenda. Around the 4th there’s a taste of how easy the inspiration flows, but midmonth you allow others opinions to affect proceedings; the lesson is their approval isn’t important. From the 23rd you are back in the flow, ready to welcome a solution-orientated and self-esteem boosting new moon on the 30th.
