ARIES

March 20 — April 1

Stimulating as recent challenges were, they’ve focused on tedious financial or practical matters. So today’s move by your ruler Mars into Sagittarius, which begins a six-week long cycle that broadens your horizons, is a relief and exciting. Others may counsel caution. But at least explore everything, since what you bypass is gone forever, while later you can fine tune – or reject - what doesn’t work.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

Sudden changes in your personal and emotional life were unexpected, but also free you from restrictive obligations or commitments. This is timely, because you’ll be in the perfect mood to explore the ideas or offers triggered by Friday’s potent aspect between Jupiter and the driven Saturn. This could be your opportunity to make long cherished goals a part of your life.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 19

Between intriguing discussions and new ideas, it’s clear that you and those closest, at home or at work, are beginning a cycle of stunning growth. Knowing this, however good offers are, keep things loose until the year’s close, when even more exciting developments could completely alter your thinking – and your life. In the meantime, explore everything, since what now seems dull could prove ideal.

CANCER

June 20 — July 21

During the week circumstances go from worryingly unsettling to wildly exciting. Don’t worry if nothing quite fits. Friday’s brilliant alliance between Jupiter and Saturn brings promising events. Still, not until early December will all the puzzle pieces assemble themselves. So explore everything for the sheer pleasure of it, knowing that events will soon make it clear what’s best.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

They seem inescapable, but actually certain tricky matters on the domestic front are becoming increasingly urgent. Resolving them now, even if it means compromising, ensures you’re free to take advantage of far more interesting developments involving work, finances and the people and activities you adore. Consider even seemingly overwhelming ideas, since with things moving swiftly, what you ignore now could be gone forever.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

Between now and November’s close, you’ll make life-changing decisions. Some are already on your mind, but it’s the opportunities triggered by Friday’s fabulous aspect between Jupiter, and Saturn, which is actually in Virgo, that justify rearranging everything. If this seems impossible now, begin anyway. Obstacles melt with each day, freeing you to break away from restrictive situations and radically improve on your life.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

You’re by no means narrow-minded. Yet in certain situations – and relationships – you’ve a blind spot. Recent events forced you to recognise how restrictive this is. This is good timing, because events encourage you to take full advantage of the combination of brilliant ideas and exciting if perplexing opportunities. Explore them all. Events around the month’s close make you very glad you did.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 20

A combination of earth-shaking home truths and perplexing offers forces you to examine elements of your life you’ve regarded as unchanging, either because you couldn’t – or haven’t wanted to. Now you recognise alternatives, and by the 27th, when your ruler Pluto moves into a new sign for the first time in ages, you’ll already be happily rearranging things. And, in the process, discovering new joys.

SAGITTARIUS

November 21 — December 20

November’s final two week are pivotal. Remember that and you’ll recognise obstacles as reason to question existing arrangements and unsettling developments – especially those in which others are in charge – as an opportunity to broaden your horizons. Taking this approach ensures you miss nothing when the Sagittarius New Moon on the 27th, combined with the uncompromising Pluto’s departure, trigger a new cycle of your life.

CAPRICORN

December 21 - January 19

Ordinarily you’d be cautious about seemingly unrealistic offers. But those that accompany Friday’s powerful alliance between the fortunate Jupiter, which is in Capricorn, and your ruler Saturn are the result of years of effort. If you hesitate, it’s because events would require changes more far-reaching than you’d bargained for. Say yes. You’ll only regret what you didn’t do, not what you did.

AQUARIUS

January 20 — February 18

You can’t help but feel excited about the developments taking place around you. Yet you’ve having difficulty recognising how they’d fit into your life. Perplexing as those concerns are, continue to explore as if the way ahead were perfectly clear – and it soon will be. Not only will your perspective catch up with developments, during that process of exploration you’ll discover even more exciting possibilities.

PISCES

February 19 — March 19

Hopefully your instincts are telling you that changes are in your best interests, because others’ complaints could make you think the current crop of rather exciting opportunities are a nuisance. True, they mean rearranging things and disrupting old habits. This is as disruptive for you as them, but you can already see the direction those changes are heading and, more importantly, the benefits they’ll bring.
