September 2019 Horoscopes

It’s all about perspective this month; it all depends how you choose to see situations as to what you get from them. Find out below what this might mean for your sign:

Aries

21st March – 20th April

Lots of little things to sort out this month (especially 6^th, 12^th, 14^th, 21^st), which takes determination to hold a perspective and keep seeing problems as molehills rather than mountains; and to not over-reach, over-react, or over-indulge out of frustration with current circumstances. From full moon time on the 14^th there’s a new vibe for relationship and partnership, which encourages good communication and openness. This feeling of resonance and common ground increases from 23^rd; especially around new moon (new beginnings) time on 28^th, and is great for new or renewed relationship, and for getting to know each other better.

Taurus

20th April – 21st May

Lots of planets in the most creative part of your chart means it’s time to satisfy your artistic or inventive side. Teaming up with others, in partnership or a group setting is on the cards this month but it’s important to not lose yourself to others’ ideas and to stand your ground with what is meaningful and valuable to you.  Around 6^th, 12th, 14^th and 21^st is most challenging and rewarding in that. There’s a new moon in your chart of health and fitness on 28^th, which means new beginnings, so it’s a good time for lifestyle changes, or to recommit to diets and exercise.

Gemini

22nd May – 21st June

There is tension and pressure in certain situations, right up to midmonth (the full moon on 14^th might bring things to a head somewhat), but it’s a kind of productive tension that pushes for results and solutions. It’s likely to involve home and family, partners, and long-term goals somehow. For example, home alterations might get underway which are messy and teeth-clenching at times, but oh so worth it in the long run. From the 14^th and especially from 23^rd the mood is more upbeat, light-hearted and fun-orientated. Romance and matters of the heart have your full attention too. You’re on the same page as someone, powerfully, and you both enjoy the discovery and discussion of it.

Cancer

22nd June – 22nd July

Lots of planets in your communication chart for much of the month means you’re still on a mission to sort out messages, documents, or phone calls that have been cluttering your mind or desk for some time. You always have a sharp eye for detail but it’s actually very easy to misread or misjudge meaning this month, so check facts and context carefully, especially around 6^th, 12^th, 14^th and 21^st. The sun moves into your chart of home and family from the 23^rd, so that is what events revolve around, and the new moon there on 28^th is about new beginnings in store that inspire a new sense of balance and harmony.

Leo

23rd July – 23rd August

A bunch of planets are in your finance and resources chart for much of the month, which means sorting statements and bank balances, or welcoming new income, jobs or promotions. It also might mean you’re in the mood to buy things, just for the feel good factor perhaps but second-guessing this urge to spend big might serve you better, especially up to midmonth and around full moon on 14^th, because things might not be what they first appear. Check the small print at least. Then from 14^th there’s a stronger focus on communication, and you really do have the gift of the gab this month, especially in love and romance, so enjoy the sparkly charm and rapport in abundance.

Virgo

24th August – 23rd September

The sun is in your sign (until 23^rd), which means it’s your time of year. Mercury (for ease of communication) and Venus (for ease of relationship, harmony, and finances) are both in your sign until midmonth, and Mars (for strong drive and motivation) is with you all month. It doesn’t mean it’s all plain sailing, but it does mean challenges feel more surmountable than usual. From 6^th until around full moon time on 14^th the tension might be tangible in relationships, especially with certain family members, but this full moon is about things coming to a head in order to release some pressure and move situations forward.

Libra

23rd September – 23rd October

Mercury and Venus move into your sign on the day of the full moon on 14^th. It indicates you and others being ready to talk, and to listen. It also means your words are more eloquent, peaceful and diplomatic than ever, so feel confident that the right words will come at the right time, despite those full moon emotions running high. From 21^st it’s easy to let doubts or power struggles get in the way of what matters, so keep on keeping things in perspective. The Sun moves into your sign from 23^rd, which means you’re feeling inspired to hatch new plans and projects; especially around the annual new moon in your sign on 28^th.

Scorpio

24th October – 22nd November

One of the symbols of Scorpio is the eagle, with good reason, as your powers of observation are finest in the zodiac and can sum up situations and others motives with pin-point accuracy. But there’s a meeting of planets that lasts all month suggesting it’s easy to lose perspective at times, meaning it’s easy to mis-read, lose context, or get things out of proportion given current circumstances. So don’t let beliefs run away with you without checking and rechecking facts, particularly around 6^th, 12^th, 14^th and 21^st. Especially so around finances or purchases, where you long to take a leap of faith, but really need to read the terms and conditions extra carefully.

Sagittarius

23rd November – 21st December

There’s a super-practical vibe to much of the month so you’re fine-tuning plans or sorting out what stands in your way, especially for career and ambition. There’s also a dreamy, creative vibe that can’t be denied no matter how practical your approach, and around the 6^th and the full moon on 14^th it’s about the balance that needs to be reached between these two sides of yourself. It’s easy to lose perspective at times this month (especially 6^th and 21^st) because of this, for example being too self-critical at times. From 14^th and 23^rd it’s all about friendship, like-minds and kindred spirits, and maybe some new connections and contacts with the new moon on 28^th.

Capricorn

22nd December – 20th January

Your ruling planet is Saturn, and this month (from 18^th) it’s no longer retrograde (appearing to move backwards). This means you’re experiencing an important turning point or change in direction, and if you look back to events in April you might notice a connection to what is happening now, or notice how much your perspective on certain situations has changed since then. It’s like you’ve been restructuring or rebuilding your path since April, and now you’re ready to move forward on it again. The new moon in your house of long-term plans and ambition on 28^th supports this, indicating new commitments in career, relationship, or both.

Aquarius

21st January – 18th February

Nowhere to hide this month. Events seem determined to push you out of your comfort zone; whether it’s in work, love, or family matters, things are happening that you just have to run with, and not away from. In many cases though this serves you extremely well, for example things are being said or coming out into the open, which can increase intimacy and deepen bonds. Other situations require a leap of faith, and that requires you to dig deep and first find that faith again. Full moon time on the 14^th might be a time of change or movement in stuck situations, while the new moon on 28^th is about the new opportunities for expansion.

Pisces

19th February – 20th March

There’s a continuation of last month’s theme of focus on relationship and partnership. Lots of planets in this area of your chart until around 23^rd suggest much is happening. It’s a positive time, when new relationships start and existing relationship deepen, but it’s also a time when tensions or conflicts might rise to the surface more, especially around 6^th and 14^th. This does not mean anything has gone wrong, just that it’s on the table to sort out right now. There’s also a general theme all month about perspective and belief, and how different outlooks lead to different outcomes. Keep it positive and empowering, in other words.

January 2019 Horoscopes

Happy 2019 to you! The two eclipses during January symbolise the darkness before the dawn in some respects. Wherever you're feeling in the dark about a situation, or under pressure about how to move forward at that time, the message is hang in there because just like the eclipse the light returns with time. Eclipses indicate long-term change, and the planets are certainly in transformation mode, especially up to mid-month. New structures and forms are emerging that better accommodate current needs and plans, but that means old and outmoded ways have to be let go of...

Aries

21st March – 20th April

Focused, feisty Mars is your ruling planet, and it’s moving into your sign on the 1^st. This is fabulous symbolism to start the new year, suggesting you are more than ready for 2019 and all it might bring. It’s not all plain sailing this month (which is just how your Mars energy prefers it), especially midmonth and around supermoon lunar eclipse time on 21^st when its easy to take your eyes off the ball, but there’s a lovely new moon eclipse on the 6^th that speaks of new long-term plans and ambition taking shape in weeks and months to come. Perhaps a new or renewed career path.

Taurus

21st April – 21st May

An eclipse on the 6^th is about the shape of long-term commitments to come. Future paths for 2019 are formed from looking in new ways at current situations. In other words, there’s a broadening of your horizons and opening of your mind taking place, and it means the steps you’re taking in weeks and months to come are something to appreciate and feel proud of yourself for taking, because change is often uncomfortable at first. Events around the supermoon eclipse on 21^st speak of this and of how to turn your old discomfort zone into something you can relax into.

Gemini

22nd May – 21st June

There’s an important new moon eclipse on 6^th. It’s theme for you over weeks or months to come is new territory and unknown territory, with all the sense of adventure and uncertainty that brings, and about the practicalities of making changes that build up into something designed to last. So for example, you’re focused on making clear plans and commitments, and doing baby steps or manageable chunks. It might not feel easy midmonth, but that doesn’t mean you’re not on the right path. The supermoon eclipse on 21^st brings important information or communication, but also misunderstandings or misgivings if you judge books by their cover. All in all, it’s a powerful start to 2019.

Cancer

22nd June – 22nd July

2019 starts strong and it looks like that’s the way it means to go on, as there are two eclipses this month, indicating significant events with long-term impact. The first eclipse on the 6^th is in your relationship chart. It’s all about new or renewed commitments, as well as a kind of clear the clutter vibe, where you’re ready to let go of who or what is in the way of your future. There’s also a theme of new or improved relationship with finances and income, and this is echoed in the super-powerful supermoon on 21^st. In other words, self-worth and financial worth are inextricably linked for 2019.  

Leo

23rd July – 23rd August

There are two eclipses this month. Eclipses set the theme for weeks or months to come, and the first one on January 6^th is about how you’re on a mission to get things sorted. Seldom have you felt so inspired by the idea of a new year meaning a new you. It’s sensible to be ambitious with 2019 resolutions, because for the foreseeable you’re in the mood to commit and stick with them. The supermoon eclipse on 21^st is in your own sign, which indicates love and partnership have your attention. The new you that is emerging has different priorities in a relationship, so its about redefining what is now important.

Virgo

24th August – 22nd September

2019 begins with one of the most creative months of the year for you. The new moon eclipse on 6^th is a doorway into new creative projects or ambition, so whatever you like to pour your heart and soul into is stepping up to new levels now or in weeks and months to come. This area of your chart is about romance too, so there’s lots happening in matters of the heart; including new or renewed commitment. It’s the practical and productive path you’re interested in this month, and events around the supermoon eclipse on 21^st are likely to reflect all this in a big way, as the time feels right to move certain things forward.

Libra

23rd September – 23rd October

The powerful new moon eclipse on the 6^th is in your chart of home and family. Eclipses have long-term impact, so events around that time tend to carry significance. This one speaks of preparation and plans for new foundations, new structure, and new beginnings. January is not without its challenges, especially mid-month, but that helps you reassess priorities and find a new sense of balance too, especially in relationships which are benefitting from much more open communication and discussion. Full moon eclipse on 21^st is about balancing more play and less work; and being willing to risk stepping into new territory, just for the adventure.

Scorpio

24th October – 22nd November

2019 opens with two eclipses in January, on the 6^th and 21^st, and eclipses often coincide with events that stay important for weeks or months to come. Events revolving around communication or information might be a theme of the first one, bringing great new opportunities to move things step by step to success via dialogue and discussion. Also, you’re in a super-practical mood, which is the only way to deal with what’s unclear or nebulous (especially mid-month), as it keeps things straightforward for yourself. The second eclipse on the 21^st is a supermoon, on the theme of more recognition for work and career; so it’s about putting yourself out there and allowing your work to be seen.

Sagittarius

23rd November – 21st December

Events seem designed to bring out both your ultra-practical side and your wild adventurous spirit. A powerful eclipse on the 6^th grounds you in reality, totally into the mood to sort things (finances in particular), and make a plan for later. As the month goes on you keep the discipline to stick to New Year resolutions, but you also have this untameable nature that insists on doing things that you probably need to make resolutions about afterwards. Rather than keep that side of you in check, keep things in perspective instead, especially midmonth and around the supermoon eclipse time on 21^st, as the urge is strong to over-reach, or to leap too far on faith alone.

Capricorn

22nd December – 20th January

It’s your time of year; a whole new year opening with up to 5 planets in your sign, which is an indication of busy, intense focus that suits your style and approach. There’s a rare new moon eclipse in your sign on the 6^th that sets the tone for many months to come, meaning you’re not willing to settle for less than a productive, well-planned, industrious, and rewarding 2019, beginning right now. There’s plenty happening this month that can’t be planned for and plenty not under your direct control, which can be frustrating at times, yet sometimes can work better than you could have imagined. The supermoon eclipse on 21^st might be one of those times.

Aquarius

21st January – 18th February

Early January is a lesson in going with the flow; meaning this is not the time to push against your own desire to clear the clutter, define some boundaries and limits, and enjoy the sense of new commitments and responsibilities. This is the message of the new moon eclipse on 6^th, and it comes at a time when it’s easy to forget that you don’t have to micro manage or control every detail in order to achieve and succeed. Then there’s a fabulous supermoon eclipse in your relationship chart on the 21^st that moves stuck situations and turns stalemates into soulmates. Maybe not overnight, but quicker than things have been moving recently.

Pisces

19th February – 20th March

There’s an element of holding your nerve required for January, as it’s all about good timing. Easy to forget this under the circumstances as there’s so much happening. A new moon eclipse on the 6^th is bringing new or renewed friendship. It also speaks of finding the right crowd on your wavelength; those you resonate with and share the same values. Eclipses are long-term influences, so this runs from January to weeks or months ahead. There’s also a supermoon eclipse on 21^st, emphasising your super-organised approach. You might not know all the details of your vision for 2019 yet, but you know the value of patience and preparation.

December 2018 Horoscopes

Last horoscopes of 2018, and today (7th) is the annual new moon in Sagittarius. Mercury moves forward again now too, after communication has been... well... interesting at times (in other words, frustrating). New moon is always a fresh start though, and this one might be the start of a whole new chapter.

Aries

21st March – 20th April

It’s a month of paradox and contradiction, for example there’s a new moon in your travel and education chart on 7^th, which energises your desire to get moving on some new journeys; yet you’re also feeling you need more retreat or seclusion, to nourish and reconnect. The answer is maybe a spiritual path, or learning something that feeds your soul, rather than just provides a qualification. Then on 21^st it’s the winter solstice, marking the approach of holiday season, yet you are more in the mood to make serious long-term plans and commitments, than lose yourself in frivolous party madness. Balance is the key, but it’s a very productive time for working to build a future.

Taurus

21st April – 21st May

December might bring back some unfinished business from September or November, but this time there are solutions coming with it, especially in relationships and partnerships. The new moon on 7^th is about stepping forward into new territory, despite the uncertainty of the unknown. It’s not always easy energy this month, it can be hard to muster enthusiasm for certain things and certain people seem intent on taking the easy way out regardless of its impact on you; but when it all works this month, it really works well and feels worth the hassle. Around winter solstice time on 21^st, under a nurturing and nourishing full moon, is a good example of this.

Gemini

22nd May – 21st June

Mercury your ruling planet is moving forward from 6^th, which means you are too, maybe with a refreshed or re-inspired approach to some problem situations, and perhaps delays or obstacles lift and smooth out. This coincides with a new moon in your relationship chart on 7^th, which is a powerful sign of new beginnings in love or career in coming weeks, but especially around solstice time on 21^st, when union and partnership are the main themes. It won’t always be as easy to see the path ahead as it is around 21st, but it’s always easy to follow it from the heart.

Cancer

22nd June – 22nd July

Unfinished business from a few months ago might return to be resolved as December opens, maybe linked to home or family, or maybe to creative projects that seemed to stall or move backwards for a time. New moon on 7^th in your chart of health and fitness might mean you start early with some new year resolutions, as this moon activates your sensible side and problem-solving skills and sees any challenge as an adventure. On 22^nd the annual full moon in your sign is about you and your relationships for the rest of the year, where certain situations are coming to a head, while other situations are coming to fulfilment.

Leo

23rd July – 23rd August

Home and family matters that were stuck or at stalemate in previous months have a real chance of being sorted during December. Meanwhile, the sun is energising your chart of creativity, fun and enjoyment for much of the month, which means all artistic endeavours, creative projects and entertainment will energise and enliven you. Romance is also part of this, and new moon on the 7^th indicates new beginnings or a turnaround for matters of the heart, especially around winter solstice time on 21^st. From 22^nd you have your practical and sensible head on, yet your intuition still inspires inventive solutions just when you need them.

Virgo

24th August – 22nd September

Home and family are an important focus for you this month, with a new moon of new beginnings in this area of your chart on the 7^th. At the same time, your ruling planet Mercury moves forward again after weeks of taking backward steps, so the sense of looking forward to the future is tangible at this time, with perhaps a literal change of direction in certain situations. Relationships can be confusing and maybe it’s hard to feel motivated about them at times this month, but there’s also a rather romantic atmosphere too, especially around winter solstice time on 21^st. Full moon on 22^nd heightens the emotions and opens the door to more fun, friendship and good times.

Libra

23rd September – 23rd October

Expect the unexpected as the month opens, as well as some unfinished business from early September or November, perhaps linked to finances or income. This time there are solutions arriving with it. A new moon in your communication chart on 7^th indicates new talks and discussions during December that lay foundations of future plans. Also, delays end on sending or receiving communication or information, especially around winter solstice time, when communication (and travel) is extremely positive indeed. Focus moves to home and family at that time, and the full moon on 22^nd is all about carving out some comfort zone time.

Scorpio

24th October – 22nd November

What was left unfinished or delayed back in September or November might be cleared and dealt with this month, especially after new moon on 7^th, which is all about new income and resources over the next few weeks. It’s also about a new sense of self-worth, as a result of recognising your own resourcefulness and don’t let a temporary creative block or lack of motivation stop you seeing that. Around winter solstice time on 21^st brings a bit of luck and good fortune, maybe a windfall, or maybe some doors open on new horizons. It’s about romance too. Whatever form it takes, it’s a time of good vibes and positive energy.

Sagittarius

23rd November – 20^th December

There’s a lot this month about staying flexible, with thoughts, plans, and people, as they all seem to be inconsistent or hard to pin down at times. The annual new moon in your sign on 7th is like your personal new year. It’s a time for setting intentions for weeks and months to come, and to welcome some new beginnings, perhaps linked to home and family. There might be some new directions or a change in direction at that time too. Solstice time on 21^st, is also about change and renewal, with a focus on your finances, purchases and income. Synchronicity and odd coincidences get your attention too, which always means you’re in balance and on track.

Capricorn

21^st December – 20th January

Often early December is a reflective or quiet time for you, while you prepare and formulate plans for the coming weeks, but this month might be busier as there’s plenty of activity and movement in the most social and friendly part of your chart. Events might link back to September or November relating to friends, groups, or gatherings, and there’s movement forward in situations generally that takes little effort or push to get going, especially around winter solstice time on 21^st. Sun moves into your sign on 21^st, and an emotional full moon on 22^nd is about balancing or changing priorities in your most important relationships.

Aquarius

21st January – 18th February

Unfinished business from September or November might be return and be resolved this month. You have learned a lot since certain ongoing situations started, so your wisdom of experience is the game changer. This might be connected to jobs and career, but it’s also any kind of long-term plans or ambition you’ve been working on. New moon on 7^th is about friendship, groups and gatherings. It’s about new beginnings or opportunities in coming weeks to expand social life and meet kindred spirits. Winter solstice time, around 21^st, is very much about doors opening for this. The full moon also at that time is about taking care of you, not just everyone else.

Pisces

19th February – 20th March

If you’ve been waiting to get going with long-term plans or career goals, there’s a big green light first half of December. You aren’t in the most motivated of moods at that time so maybe the energy of the second half of December might suit you better, especially around winter solstice on 21^st, as the planets speak of you being ready for the new opportunities around you. Love is in the air from that time too, as there’s a really romantic vibe in relationships. A full moon in your chart of fun and entertainment on 22^nd means there’s plenty of enjoyment still to be had before the year ends too.

November 2018 Horoscopes

Aries

21st March – 20th April

New and exciting journeys await, as Jupiter moves to your travel and education chart from the 8^th, for the next year. Last time Jupiter was here was 2006/7, so look back to then to see the life expansion and wisdom of experience you’ve gained. Jupiter is about broadening horizons, learning and growing, as well as your faith and belief system. It’s considered to be the planet of luck, good fortune, and good vibes; maybe because it inspires such confidence in the road ahead. Mercury Retrograde, the Sun, and Jupiter are together for the final week of November. A rare line-up, which is likely to coincide with faith being rewarded in powerful and significant ways.

Taurus

21st April – 21st May

Something that has simmered for months is reaching readiness around 7^th, during a deep and meaningful new moon in your partnership chart. Maybe linked to work, maybe love, maybe both. On 8^th Jupiter, planet of wisdom, faith, and good fortune, moves to your chart of trust and transformation for the next year, meaning a journey of change and uncertainty will feel more like an adventure than ever. This might be most tangible during final week, when a rare line-up of planets shows meaningful meetings and positive moves are on the horizon. Before that, on 16^th your ruler Venus ends retrograde, which means you’re ready for a change in direction, especially after weeks of reviewing or revising your current one.

Gemini

22nd May – 21st June

So much going on this month, mostly focusing around relationship and partnership. Jupiter is your relationship planet, and it’s moving into this area of your chart on the 8^th, for the next year. Last time was 2006/7, so think back to what happened then and how things have evolved. It’s now a new cycle for relationship, partnership, contracts and agreements, based on the wisdom of your experience gained since then. Your ruler Mercury is retrograde from 17^th, so the past is meeting present in other significant ways too. Full moon in your sign on 23^rd might end stuck situations, and final week, especially around 27^th is about soulmate meetings and destined unions.

Cancer

22nd June – 22nd July

A new moon of new potential on the 7^th is nurturing your creative projects and helping whatever you pour your heart into to come to fruition in coming weeks and months. From 8^th, Jupiter, planet of opportunity, positivity, and increase, moves to your chart of daily schedules, occupation, health and fitness for the next year. It can mean moving jobs or promotions, or a more supportive atmosphere at work. It’s also about faith in solutions and problem-solving, as Jupiter’s mantra is ‘ask and it is given’. Jupiter’s influence is unusually powerful during last week of November, so expect events that uplift and restore faith.

Leo

23rd July – 23rd August

Certain relationships, contracts or agreements, have had ongoing issues with no resolution for a long time, but this month might bring communication that finalises issues or opens a new chapter. A new moon in your home and family chart on 7^th means positive change and transformation there, and from 8^th, Jupiter, the planet of faith, confidence and opportunity, moves to your chart of creativity and romance for the next year. It means Jupiter will open, expand and develop your creative potential, and restore faith in matters of the heart. Fun, entertainment and good times are likely to increase too, starting with the final week of November.

Virgo

24th August – 22nd September

A deep and meaningful new moon on 7^th suggests it’s all about communicating your truth and getting the message across. New contacts, conversation and information are likely to be important. Jupiter, planet of opportunity and expansion is moving into your chart of home and family from the 8^th, for the next year. Last time was 2006/7 so look back to see how it worked for you then. Your ruler Mercury is retrograde from 17^th and stands next to the sun and Jupiter for final week. This is a rare and significant alignment that might bring memorable events linked to reconnecting with family or the past, renewing or expanding home, or moving key relationships forward.

Libra

23rd September – 23rd October

November is a pivotal month of new starts, changes in direction, and patience rewarded. Jupiter, planet of expansion and good fortune, moves to your communication chart from 8^th, for the next year. It means increase and growth linked to conversation and information, and if you’ve ever harboured a wish to write or talk for a living, 2019 would be a good year to start. Faith and patience in relationships might be rewarded around this time too (especially linked to events early October) when Venus moves forward from 16^th. Final week has a rare meeting of planets that means important meetings and conversations for you where you shine your light bright.

Scorpio

24th October – 22nd November

It’s an important month for you. The annual new moon in your sign on the 7^th is like a personal new year for you, so November is like a blank slate for new intentions. On the 8^th, Jupiter, planet of faith and optimism, moves to your income and ownership chart for the next year. Last time was late 2006/7, so look back to then to see how you’ve built and expanded on what started at that time. Jupiter is traditionally about good fortune and luck, so keep the faith and self-belief high to get the best out of it. Events around 22^nd and especially 27^th might give you an indication of how this energy is working for you.

Sagittarius

22nd November – 21st December

Jupiter is your ruling planet and it arrives in your sign on 8th to stay for the next year. Last time was 2006/7, so look back to then to see how life expanded in positive ways. Jupiter is the planet of plenty; it traditionally brings good fortune and increase, as well as a broadening of horizons through travel and learning (also a broadening of the waistline perhaps as this is a planet all about enjoying the good life). The sun moves into your sign on 22^nd, under the light of a fulfilling full moon for relationships, and end of month looks interesting with Sun, Jupiter, and Mercury retrograde in your sign, perhaps indicating faith being restored.

Capricorn

22nd December – 20th January

From the 8^th, for the next year, Jupiter, planet of faith, belief, and good fortune, is in your chart of destiny, fate, and going with the flow. It means surrendering to the positive perspective of a situation and faith rewarded for doing so. Not easy for a realist, as it seems sensible to notice the pros and cons of everything, but it doesn’t mean stick on the rose-coloured glasses and carry on regardless; it’s about getting grounded in the idea there’s a bigger picture we don’t always see, that the pieces fit better than we can place them, and that the universe always has our backs. Final week of November is powerfully all about this.

Aquarius

21st January – 18th February

There are a few situations that have been rumbling on for too long without resolution or answers, but you might see light at the end of the tunnel during November. Around new moon time on 7^th has biggest potential for this, and it’s also about new beginnings linked to career, status, long-term plans and ambitions. On 8^th, Jupiter, planet of faith, increase, and abundance, moves to your chart of friendship, groups, and gatherings, for the next year. It’s a big deal because where Jupiter goes, opportunities appear. It’s about finding like-minds, and those on your wavelength, and the good stuff that comes from that. Events during final week of November powerfully opens you to all this.

Pisces

19th February – 20th March

There’s a deep and meaningful new moon on 7^th, which means November is filled with new ways of seeing situations, new roads and paths to travel, and a broadening of horizons with discoveries to made and treasure to unearth. Jupiter, planet of opportunity and increase, is moving into your career and ambition chart this month, for the next year. It was last here 2006/7, so look back to then to see how any long-term plans and goals expanded and evolved. Jupiter’s influence is strong this month, especially from 22^nd, and through the family focused full moon on 23^rd; but it’s especially strong during final week, when you feel you’re moving forward again in a powerful way.

Venus Retrograde October 2018

From October 5^th until November 15^th 2018, planet Venus is retrograde, which speaks of transformation, rebirth and reunion for all relationships, but especially love and romance. Venus is in the sign of Scorpio until late October, so the mood is deep, intense, passionate and mysterious.

Unfinished business is likely to resurface, absent lovers might return, either physically or emotionally, and it’s a time when we might get the urge to dig deeper into situations, maybe play detective or investigate motives and get to the heart of hidden agendas, in others and in ourselves.

Scorpio is focused on what lies beneath the surface, what treasure is hidden underneath appearances; what thoughts and feelings are really going on deep down. Venus in Scorpio situations are like the proverbial iceberg, with only the tip visible while underneath there is a whole lot more going on that is hidden away from view. Scorpio-style relationship dynamics can be tricky at the best of times, with issues around trust, intimacy, control, and unknown territory. Add the retrograde energy into that mix and there’s even more going on, all at once.

But don’t fear old hurts or wounds being reopened, or maybe some old arguments resurfacing, as it might be chance to clear the air and end power struggles. Scorpio energy supports emotional healing, so It’s the right time for counselling, therapy, or for any healing journey to really have some impact as Scorpio is the sign of emotional renewal, rebirth and regeneration. From the dark night of the soul, Scorpio moves us to the light at the end of tunnel.

The new moon in Libra which happens around 9^th October, depending on time zone, is the most relationship focused moon of 2018. New moons are about new beginnings and a great time to set intentions for the future. A new moon in Libra is all about new beginnings for love and partnership with new intentions for balance and harmony within, and with others.

Planet Venus (ruler of Libra) is in a rare dance of union and reunion with planet Mars during this retrograde phase. These two planets represent the masculine and feminine nature, the yin and yang which is in us all, and balanced perfectly through the Libra scales of fairness, equality and justice.

Venus reverses from Scorpio back into Libra late October, while the sun moves from Libra to Scorpio. A deep and intense new moon in Scorpio on November 7^th reflects how deep the Venus retrograde journey has taken you since October 5^th. Reflecting on your own journey during that time might show you how much relationships have transformed and are continuing to give you the chance to choose love, forgiveness, healing, and healthy change. This is the new moon to affirm the new you as far as relationships go. Partnerships are different because you are different!

Venus retrograde ends mid-November, meaning Venus is moving forward again, and so are relationships; transformed and renewed.

October 2018 Horoscopes

Back posting after a long break! Moving house and jobs and pretty much everything at once (and during a heatwave too) meant it was an intense summer of change for me. The planets still promise us plenty to look forward to before 2018 ends, starting with Venus retrograde this month. Find out below what that might mean for your sign...

Aries

21st March – 20th April

It’s the most relationship focused month of the year. Partnership planet Venus retrogrades from 5^th, which means you’re reviewing and reassessing important relationships until mid-November. It also means unfinished business is making itself known, including the return or reconnection of old faces or places from the past. Your ruler Mars is meeting Venus during the new moon of balance and harmony, and it’s important as Mars is in new territory for the first time in months, which means you are too. Balancing themes of rebirth and renewal with stability and security is the message of a financially focused full moon (24^th), and you might find some unconventional ways of doing so.

Taurus

21st April – 21st May

While you aren’t particularly in the mood to rock the boat with partners, the planets are pushing for what’s real rather than peace at any price, so have the uncomfortable conversation, be less guarded and risk more openness. There’s a feeling of being in new territory with relationships, which increases uncertainty and the unknown but like deja-vu, in the sense of having been here before and now in a whole new way. Transformation, rebirth and renewal is the theme of October in many areas of your life, and a dynamic and empowering full moon in your sign on 24^th emphasises the sweet relief in releasing the past for the freedom of the future.

Gemini

22nd May – 21st June

The sun is in your house of creativity, fun, and entertainment until 23^rd, which means life keeps revolving around that. It’s about romance and matters of the heart too, and you’re laying your cards on the table but there’s no game playing here; there’s truth and real intimacy to be uncovered and discovered if you aren’t invested in power struggles or control dramas. There’s also a theme of rebirth and renewal all month, especially around full moon on 24^th, when you’re radically clearing clutter (emotional as well as physical) to transform and reorder your space and your time

Cancer

22nd June – 22nd July

The new moon on 6th carries a message of transformation and change at home and especially for partnerships and significant relationships as Venus, planet of love and money, is retrograde until mid-November. This means you’re reviewing or taking stock, as well as reconnecting with faces and places from the past, for closure or regeneration. Some doors are closing, but the cliché of other doors opening because of it is true. Events around full moon on 24^th might be the result of a build-up or bottling up of emotion mixed with the desire to break free of what feels controlling or unmoving. Some of it has been a long time coming, but it all requires TLC and a gentle touch.

Leo

23rd July – 23rd August

The sun is in your communication chart until 23^rd, and there’s a theme of unfinished business or sorting the past out somehow. Venus (love and money) is retrograde from 5^th until mid-November, which again means the past is important in these areas. It links strongly to home and family, and early childhood, which might mean nostalgia and memories that reconnect you with faces or places from the past. Trust and intimacy, and what you can and can’t control about situations, are huge themes this month, especially around a freedom-seeking full moon on 24^th in your career and long-term plans chart, when alternative, unconventional, or unexpected paths appear, opening your mind to new possibilities.

Virgo

24th August – 22nd September

A new moon in your finance and resources chart indicates new beginnings related to income or property. The energy of this time is very much about renewal and rebirth, and this is about bringing balance and maintaining equilibrium. There’s likely to be significant communication or discussions involved; perhaps unfinished business from the past resurfaces, or you’re reconnecting to the past in some way, especially in relationships. Your detective mind is looking for clues and uncovering the truth this month, and an unpredictable full moon on 24^th brings things to a head, including a strong need for space and time for yourself.

Libra

23rd September – 23rd October

The sun is in your sign until 23^rd, brightening and energising your birthday month. The annual new moon in your sign on the 6^th is a personal new year when ideas and intentions can take root for the year ahead. This new moon has a ‘clear the clutter’ theme, with the sense that renewal and regeneration is happening, especially linking to home and family; so maybe there are home moves or makeovers in store. Your ruler Venus is retrograde from 5^th until mid-November, which is about unfinished business, or the past resurfacing, especially in relationships but with a focus on finance and property too, especially at full moon time on 24^th.

Scorpio

23rd October – 22nd November

The world is more on the Scorpio wavelength this month than ever before. So you understand October’s key themes of power, control, transformation and rebirth keenly, and you can see any games being played and the real dynamics behind situations. Your job this month is to stay true to yourself to allow others to be true to themselves, so don’t lose balance and get swept up in drama (and there’s likely to be drama even from the most unlikely of people), or you’ll cloud your amazing perception and insight. An intense relationship full moon around the 24^th tests your mettle on this; someone needs freedom (it could be you) and someone needs trust (it could be them).

Sagittarius

23rd November – 21st December

A lot of action is behind the scenes this month, meaning you might look like a serene swan on the surface but underneath your legs are swimming like crazy; so give others a break for not noticing all your hard work, as they can’t see the full picture right now. New moon on 9^th is about things being made right, and unfairness being balanced. Perhaps involving unfinished business from the past. From 11^th you might notice communication moving forward, or writers block dissolving, for the first time in months. Then full moon on 24^th amplifies the theme of regeneration and renewal, in unusual and unexpected ways, while a feeling of fate or destiny threads through love and relationships around 29^th.

Capricorn

22nd December – 20th January

This month you’re ready to invest in what you value. Perhaps you’ve had to wait to do this as delays, obstacles, or just a redirection of time or energy made you feel the odds were against you, but not anymore. New moon on 9^th is about new career moves, and renewed efforts towards long-term plans, and you aren’t leaving anything to chance. Is this control freakery or is it just being careful? Who knows, but it works. As October continues it becomes clear it’s not what you know but who you know, and also about stepping into the unknown. Events around the full moon on 24^th might emphasis this theme in powerful and unexpected ways.

Aquarius

21st January – 18th February

It’s the season of bringing things into balance, like balancing the books or some karma. Whatever it is, there’s a depth and intensity to events that you can’t be half-hearted about. From about the 11^th, you’re in new territory as far as your approach to certain situations goes, for the first time in a long time, as most of the summer has been about going over old ground, reaching to the past, or feeling a bit stuck, but things are different this month. Relationships are about unfinished business, renewal and regeneration; especially at the radical and highly charged full moon on 24^th, which is about trust and intimacy versus freedom and space.

Pisces

19th February – 20th March

In your opinion it takes two to build trust, and October is about that process in new or renewed relationships; especially the long-distance ones. Venus, planet of love and money, is retrograde from the 5^th until mid-November, which means unfinished business needs finishing, and relationships are about connecting to the past to transform the present. Travel and education are big themes for you, especially from 23^rd, as it’s about transforming your perspective and mindset via new horizons. Events around the powerful full moon on 24^th reflect all this, and also your competing desires of more stability and security on the one hand, versus the need to break routine and do something completely different.

May 2018 Horoscopes

Here are my horoscopes for May, and it's a mega month for all, with planet Uranus changing signs from Aries (where it's been since 2011), to Taurus where it will stay for the next 8 years. Find out below what that means for all signs. 

Aries

21st March – 20th April

Since 2011, freedom planet Uranus has been in your sign, indicating breakthroughs, break-ups and breakdowns that shook you from the past, and from habits and routines that weren’t serving you. It’s been a time when you’ve been restless enough to take more risks than usual and taken leaps of faith from the well-trodden path, into pastures new; sometimes suddenly or unexpectedly. You’ve also become a catalyst for others to do the same, and you’ve found kindred spirits on your wavelength. This month Uranus leaves your sign and begins a new journey, shaking up situations related to income, resources, property, self-worth and values; so expect change and revolution in those areas (until 2026!).

Taurus

21st April – 21st May

You are centre of all the astro action this month. The sun is recharging your sign until 21^st, and your annual new moon on the 15^th indicates seeds of new beginnings are being sown. On the same day planet Uranus moves into your sign, for the first time since 1934, to stay until 2026. Uranus is the planet that revolutionises and updates our lives, shaking us free of the past, or indeed anything that isn’t really ‘us’ at heart. When this planet is active it’s common to feel a sense of restlessness, and a desire to break free of current routines; not just for the sake of it but to find space and freedom to stay true to yourself.

Gemini

22nd May – 21st June

Since 2011 revolutionary planet Uranus has been changing and updating friendships, support network, and links with groups and gatherings (look back and see how things have changed for the better since then). It hasn’t always been easy, convenient, or comfortable, but has brought you closer to kindred spirits who understand the real ‘you’. From midmonth till 2026, Uranus is doing similar with your spiritual path, your dreams and insights, and the ways you relax and escape from life stress. Destiny and fate arrive in unconventional, sudden or unexpected ways; starting with the sun into your sign from 21^st, followed by a relationship themed final week, including a fulfilling full moon on 29^th.

Cancer

22nd June – 22nd July

Since 2011, planet Uranus in your career, ambition and status chart has indicated change, disruption, and unexpected twists and turns. It’s been a time when the unconventional or alternative routes paid off more than sticking with your normal path, and looking back from then to now, you’ll notice how you’re now living more authentically in that area of life. This month, on the new moon of new beginnings (15^th), Uranus begins an 8 year journey to do the same in your friendship, hopes and dreams chart. It means friends, groups and gatherings will be about kindred spirits that anchor you more deeply in your truest self and awaken exciting new dreams for the future.

Leo

23rd July – 23rd August

Since 2011, planet Uranus has been in your chart of travel, education, and broadening horizons. Which means you’ve been on quite a journey since then; either literally or as a learning curve, with experiences that led to big changes in how you see things. These changes are a foundation for what happens next, as Uranus moves to your chart of long-term aims and ambition (especially in career and love) this month, to update and change things until 2026. It’s all designed to anchor you on your true path, so while change can be unexpected or unsettling at times, there’s more security and comfort in living true to yourself.

Virgo

24th August – 22nd September

There’s big change on the horizon this month as planet Uranus ends its stay in your trust and transformation chart, where it’s been since 2011. The past 8 years has changed you in many ways, and circumstances have been an eye-opener and awakener in the realm of shared resources and finances, trust and intimacy. But you’re more authentic and true to yourself as a result, and ready for Uranus to work its magic in the realm of travel and education. From 15^th (new moon), new and exciting experiences are in store related to how you think about and see the world, with leaps of faith and unexpected twists and turns to unsettle, surprise and delight you.

Libra

23rd September – 23rd October

Since 2011 planet Uranus has been in your relationship chart, which meant all relationships have been going through big changes, breakthroughs and/or break-ups. Uranus is the planet of bright ideas and new exciting updates, so life has been seldom boring in the partnership department, and if it was, you weren’t afraid to shake things up a bit. So thinking back to 2011 notice how much more true to yourself you are as a partner today, and how much more authentic all your relationships are. This is the kind of revolution that Uranus brings, and from 15^th it’s moving on to do the same in the realm of your shared resources and finances, trust issues, transformations and make-overs.

Scorpio

24th October – 22nd November

A very interesting month ahead. Since 2011 planet Uranus has been in your health and healing chart, indicating disruption, change, and breakthrough. Uranus is about where we update our thinking and attitude; and shake off old habits and routines to start living in the future we desire. Looking back over the past 8 years you might see the difference in you from then to now. This month (15^th) Uranus moves to begin the same process in your relationship chart (until 2026!), and it’s all designed to help you be true to yourself within all your relationships. Final week of May is full of romance, insight and intuition, to get things underway.

Sagittarius

23rd November – 21st December

Jupiter meeting Neptune (strongest final week) means luck is on your side and possibilities are endless, and full moon in your sign on 29^th is about where you want to take certain situations from here. Since 2011 planet Uranus has been in the most creative zone of your chart; bringing sudden or unexpected developments and updates. Uranus is about being true to yourself and your unique nature, and it tends to shake situations out of stagnancy or rut, in order for you to be more ‘you’ (compare from 2011 to now to understand more), and big news is that from midmonth, Uranus moves to revolutionise your chart of day to day occupation and work, including health and fitness, until 2026.

Capricorn

22nd December – 20th January

For the past 8 years planet Uranus has been in your home and family chart. It’s the planet of revolution and independence, and brings change and breaks with the past, as well as new, unconventional, or alternative approaches and solutions that serve you well. Looking back since 2011 might reveal how events worked out to bring you more freedom and a sense of liberation related to home and family. This month Uranus starts a new 8 year cycle, this time through the most creative zone of your chart, so expect the unexpected as it gets to work slowly updating your creative process and projects the same way. Romance and matters of the heart are included too.

Aquarius

21st January – 18th February

Your ruling planet, the revolutionary Uranus, has been rocking the boat in your communication chart for the past 8 years. In that time you’ve found the freedom of your speech more than ever, and got much more comfortable with your unique style and approach to communication. Uranus moves to your home and family chart during May, which means freedom, independence and an uncompromising approach will become increasingly important in that area of your life too. The shift happens officially on 15^th, during the new moon in your home and family chart, so events at that time might be of interest, or bring a taste of what’s to come.

Pisces

19th February – 20th March

Planet Uranus is finishing an 8 year stay in your income and resources chart this month. It’s the planet of freedom, independence, and revolution, so look back from 2011 to see how what you have, what you want to have, and what you value has gone through some radical changes and shifts, for the better. From 15^th, Uranus now moves to the communication zone of your chart, which the day of the new moon of new beginnings. It’s now all about authentic expression, free speech, and your true voice, and there are events in store designed to bring all that out; beginning perhaps during final week, when unfinished business resurfaces and luck is on your side.
