STARS WEEK JULY 6
Monday, July 6th, 2009

ARIES

March 20 – April 18

Your instinctive reaction to obstacles is usually to overcome them as swiftly as possible. At the moment, you’d pay a price for your haste. Some arise because plans aren’t actually wise, while others accent the need for serious discussion. More importantly, these ensure you’re flexible for when the events triggered by Tuesday’s eclipsed Full Moon changes everything in a twinkling.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

For several weeks you’ve been thinking about changes bring long cherished dreams closer. But, admittedly, these ideas would create chaos. Now events force your hand. You still have doubts, but they’re softened by unexpected yet intriguing ideas or offers around the week’s close. If you’re still worried, consider this; you’ll only regret what you didn’t do, not what you did.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

True, you’re facing unfortunate situations. But they have an upside, one you’ll soon recognise. These reveal problems in certain plans or the shortcomings of individuals who you’ve trusted. Eliminating them from your options forces you to consider what you truly want, which is perfect timing, since Mars’ move into Gemini next Sunday begins a powerful new cycle for your life.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

While living with the practical and emotional upheaval triggered by eclipses this week, on the 22nd and in early August won’t be easy, you’ll be eternally grateful for the breakthroughs they bring. These dislodge you from once exciting but now restrictive arrangements and trigger serious exploration. Forget about caution. And when unexpected opportunities arise, say yes first and ask questions later.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

The only real problem you’ll face during this period of dynamic and, often, much needed change is coping with others being responsible for decisions you regard as yours to make. Resist the temptation to interfere. Actually, their knowledge of facts or vision is greater than yours – as soon becomes clear. You’ll be glad you allowed them to take the reins.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

Ideally, there’d be a single, simple solution for tricky problems or one straightforward decision that will impose order on chaos. But with three eclipses between now and early August, altering both your thinking and the circumstances you’re dealing with, you’re in a state of on-going flux. Instead, focus on asking questions, especially when stunning opportunities appear late in the week.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

Remember that often what’s best appears in unexpected ways, and instead of worrying about this week’s unceremonious developments, you’ll wait and watch. This is especially vital, since otherwise the events triggered by Tuesday’s eclipse could seem to threaten the status quo. Actually, the shake-ups they’re causing will make it easier to take advantage of opportunities as unexpected as they are worthwhile.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

Not only are abrupt developments creating chaos in elements of your life, those who’re in control are being frustratingly secretive about their intentions. Or so it seems. Actually, because their decisions are being shaped by almost daily shifts in circumstances, they don’t know much more than you do. Still, they’re better informed than you realise, and their intentions are good.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

If you judged by the unsettling and, often, unfair events of the week’s first half, you wouldn’t think you should expect fantastic growth and good fortune. Ironically, what’s going is clearing the way for the stunning ideas or offers triggered by your ruler Jupiter’s potent alliance with Neptune, planet of transformation, on Friday. By then your optimism will have returned.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

While everybody will be contending with the upheaval that accompanies Tuesday’s eclipse, because it’s a Full Moon and in Capricorn, you’ll be facing personal and partnership matters, particularly those of an emotional nature. Tempting as it is downplay issues or your feelings, investigate seriously and you’ll finally understand even the most persistent and how they can be dealt with for good. 

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

Try to stick to plans, you’ll only complicate matters. While some changes seem a mere nuisance, the ideas, events and offers ushered in by Friday’s potent encounter between the bountiful Jupiter and Neptune, in your sign, make letting go easy. Unlikely as some seem, time will prove them to be exactly as good as they seem, if not better.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

Ideally, you’d adore to share the bounty currently coming your way with others. But actually the fabulous alliance between the planet of good fortune, Jupiter, and your ruler Neptune is all about you. In time you can give others a hand. Meanwhile, noticing who enthusiastically cheers your good fortune and who doesn’t reveals who your true friends are.

STARS WEEK JUNE 29
Monday, June 29th, 2009

ARIES

March 20 – April 18

You don’t mind reorganising plans. But you like to be part of the decision-making process. With one eclipse already having shaken things up and two more yet to come, that’s unlikely. Disruptive as these may be, there are benefits. They’ll force those who’ve steadfastly resisted even considering new ideas or changes to recognise that they’re not only wise, they’re inevitable.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

Making halfway changes seems a compromise. Having realised elements of your life must be altered, you’ll think things through, then do what’s needed with a flourish. However, because this cycle of transformation lasts until early August, try adopting an uncharacteristically adaptable approach. With events altering even the simplest of arrangements, the fewer decisions you make, the fewer changes you’ll face.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

An in depth analysis of which arrangements work and which don’t may be tedious. But once you begin giving these serious thought, you’ll recognise the source of persistent problems and, as importantly, how to resolve them. View these as tentative, since with on-going changes altering the circumstances you’re dealing with, even the simplest of plans will be altered several times.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

You don’t mind unsettling developments. But you like to know what’s next. However, because little will be clear until after late July’s Cancer eclipsed New Moon, you’re better off keeping things loose. This ensures you’re alert for changes in circumstances and unencumbered, so when unexpected opportunities come your way, which they will, there’s nothing to hold you back.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

Acknowledging you’re not in control of certain pivotal situations ends certain persistent frustrations. Ordinarily abandoning these to fate would be unwise. But with so many changes altering the actual circumstances you’re dealing with, you’d be facing struggles on a regular basis. Instead watch and learn, and you’ll be prepared to reorganise things in late July, then life’s a lot calmer.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

Forget about getting things just right. Try and you’ll soon realise that with so much in turmoil and new developments elbowing out existing arrangements, life’s about exploration, not making plans. First, centre your inquisitive Virgo mind on questioning everything. Then focus on exploring what intrigues you, and when it’s finally time to make decisions, you’ll be fully prepared. 

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

Disillusioning revelations about certain individuals you’ve trusted or situations you’ve regarded as solid are a real letdown. But you soon realise they because you’re no longer hampered by these, or other equally unrewarding commitments, you’re free to explore. This is good timing, because what arises this week is likely to become far more interesting during the month of July.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

It may not seem like it at first, but every problem you face constitutes an opportunity to explore potentially rewarding new ideas or pursuits. In fact, some events actually introduce you to these. However, since you may not recognise their potential initially, explore absolutely everything. What you regard as the least likely option could soon prove to be best.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

Ordinarily you’d ignore the petty complaints and quibbles of others as exactly that. Now, however, these could provide vital information about persistent, and increasingly worrying, problems. Regard what you learn as puzzle pieces that have yet to be assembled and instead of trying to force solutions, you’ll continue to focus on exploration and learning as much as you can.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

The tremors coursing through your life aren’t just about a shake up in your day to day routine. If you’re willing to take chances or explore the unknown, who or what you encounter could bring benefits in everything from financial matters to ending persistent self-doubts. Don’t play it safe. The more you risk, the more you’ll learn.

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

Instead of sidestepping potential disagreements, plunge in and ask questions about both difficult situations and others’ problems. This finally reveals the source of certain persistent dilemmas and, as you talk things over with others, you work to achieve a joint plan to end them. As important, in the process, you’ll also gain a deeper understanding of the individuals involved.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

Don’t assume that because certain of your ideas are sheer genius, everything you come up with this week will be. In fact, some seemingly simple concepts or arrangements could fall apart, and for no apparent reason. Do a little digging and you’ll realise why they went wrong and, more importantly, you’ll learn why you should avoid dealing with certain individuals.

STARS WEEK MAY 17
Monday, May 18th, 2009

ARIES

March 20 – April 18

Usually obstacles are simply that, something to be overcome. Now, however, whether it’s specific situations and certain individuals behind your problems, it’s about the questions you ask, not swift progress. If initially this seems a distraction, the information you get reassures you there’s lots to learn. Enough that by the week’s close, your goals could look very different indeed.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

Giving up on prized goals, as it’s likely you’ll have to, is no failure. It’s a recognition either circumstances or your requirements have moved on. So when events make it clear certain arrangements aren’t working, think carefully about whether they’re worth battling for. You’ll probably conclude they’re not. Besides, something far better is waiting for you, just around the corner.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

Witnessing things falling apart is no fun, unless you’re aware these dilemmas will be explained by the Gemini New Moon, early next week. Knowing this, forget about gluing arrangements back together. Instead consider whether what once meant so much to you, in terms of both activities and relationships, still does. What you learn is likely to surprise you.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

Think twice before you interfere with battles involving loved ones, business associates or work. Leaving others to it may seem cold. However, their crusades involve issues which are unknown to you but fundamental to their drive to make changes. Meanwhile, take advantage of this chance to investigate several intriguing ventures. These might soon become far more central to your activities.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

The bad behaviour of certain individuals you’re close to, personally or professionally, isn’t just disappointing, it could result in serious problems. Bizarrely, these goings-on will reveal deeper practical problems that, otherwise, wouldn’t have surfaced for ages. This temporarily distracts them and means you’ll all committed to finding a solution, although the odds are good that might mean making big-time changes.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

Usually you shoulder the burden for organising things, which includes resolving others’ problems, and without even giving it a thought. With your ruler Mercury is retrograde, triggering self-doubts, you could easily take these problems to heart or even feel that somehow you’re responsible. Actually, they’re leading you to insights about changes you’ll be making, and before the month’s close.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

Don’t judge the disillusioning behaviour of others until you have the full facts. While it may seem you’ve learned everything you can this week, the real truth is unlikely to surface until Mercury ends its retrograde cycle on the 31st. Knowing that, ensure any decisions are flexible and, similarly, however worrying others’ actions seem now, keep an open mind.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

Whether it’s pride or simple stubbornness, your every instinct is telling you to stick with certain arrangements, however troubled they seem. This once, your usually superb intuition is being fooled by situations and emotions so complex unravelling them will take ages. In the meanwhile, this week’s unexpected events will soon make you relieved you got out while you could.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

Waste no time wondering how you got it so wrong. You weren’t alone. This week’s events reveal complex deceptions, some of which influence the world around you. But those of the greatest significance have to do with what once seemed stunning ventures. Regard these as a trial run. By the month’s close you’ll be involved in something immeasurably better.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

It isn’t the numerous but simple errors – yours and others’ – of which there will be many, that’s the problem. It’s discerning those from what you gradually realise were intentional deceptions, some authored by those you’ve trusted. Obviously, this is disillusioning. Once you’ve accepted these as fact, quietly begin rethinking certain arrangements and, in some cases, elements of your future.

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

Waste no time trying to get the full facts about the current crop of puzzling events. Some are simply unfortunate circumstances. But others related to the underhand manoeuvres of certain individuals who you’ve unwisely relied on. The sooner you take the hint and begin questioning their trustworthiness, the better. Far better options are about to appear, and from nowhere.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

Often before the new can come, the old must go. By now you’ve probably already realised this is such a week. And if you’re a typical Pisces, your instincts have already told you that something far better is soon coming your way. So, clear any clutter from your life with an uncharacteristic ruthlessness, and you’ll be ready to respond swiftly.

STARS WEEK APRIL 26
Monday, April 27th, 2009

ARIES

March 20 – April 18

Sometimes obstacles are nothing more than that. But with your ruler Mars just having moved into Aries, you’ve begun a cycle during which you’ll question both existing arrangements and future plans. Once you realise that either circumstances or your own objectives have changed, but your objectives haven’t, you’ll enjoy eliminating what doesn’t work and updating your life.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

Pressing as things seem, the questions raised by the recent Taurus New Moon come first. Initially these get you wondering about existing arrangements. But, gradually, you realise they’re based on the past and that many things have changed. Once you’ve acknowledged this, a new and often unanticipated world of opportunities begins to reshape your thinking and your future.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

What initially seem minor problems turn out to be amazingly revealing. Once you’re actually probing these, you realise that seemingly solid arrangements should have been reviewed long ago. This, in turn, gets you thinking about the intriguing concepts only just now appearing. Knowing you’re saying farewell to certain ventures, you now have time to focus on these new ones.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

Decisions involving your work or lifestyle are being complicated by the requirements, or dramas, of others. While these conflicts can’t be avoided, you can refuse to allow them to turn into power struggles, even if this means going along with what others insist you do at the time. As circumstances shift, you’ll be able to alter arrangements to suit you.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

Enthusiastic as you are about new and intriguing ideas, you’re less excited about the accompanying changes to your routine or plans. However, not only are these necessary, once you’re actually exploring your options, you’ll realise that instead of being disruptive, these could free you from restrictive or tedious arrangements you’ve regarded as unchanging. Obviously, the sooner you begin, the better.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

When it comes to gathering facts, you’re usually as swift as you are canny. But between complicated situations and half-truths, you’re only now sorting out the truth from others’ tales. Actually, this is good timing, because the new ideas you explore this week could substantially alter both your thinking and your priorities. Knowing that, focus on asking questions, not organising plans.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

This is a contentious week in a tricky period. However, these conflicts aren’t your problem. Others are dealing with confusing issues. As a result, whatever you decide, somebody’s likely to object. Once you understand that, you’ll stop struggling to come up with the perfect plan and will focus on your own obligations, while others deal with theirs

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

Plunging into potentially chaotic changes makes no sense. Yet you’re still drawn to new ideas or intriguing proposals. You should be. It’s just you’re aware of only some of the facts. Actually, things are unlikely to be clear until early May’s Scorpio Full Moon. Knowing that, until then, focus on exploring every option not perfecting one single plan.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

Lately there’s been so much excitement that you’ve neglected various everyday obligations. Not only must you now tackle these, invest time in exploring whether these could be handled more efficiently or, in some cases, eliminated, and you’ll streamline your life. While this process may not be interesting, ultimately, it frees you to concentrate on the coming weeks’ extraordinary developments.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

Recent events have accented your wilful streak. You’re tempted to take a stand. Instead, choose your battles. Some situations are more complex than you realise, and your efforts to have things your way wouldn’t turn out remotely as you’ve anticipated. Going with the flow may seem weak, but at the moment it’s by far the wisest option.

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

Unexpected and, perhaps, unwelcome, events are forcing you to rearrange elements of your work, lifestyle and plans. Disruptive as this is, the process raises questions about situations you’ve regarded as unchanging. Once you realise these aren’t nearly as fixed as you’ve thought them to be, a whole new world of options opens up before you, some hugely intriguing.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

Don’t brush off seemingly pointless issues or others’ equally unimportant questions. They’re all highlighting the cycle of dramatic change that is only now beginning. Understand that and, instead of rushing decisions, you’ll take time to explore every option that arises and encourage others to do the same, knowing that what you learn now could shape the future.

STARS WEEK APRIL 19
Monday, April 20th, 2009

ARIES

March 20 – April 18

After a lengthy period during which events were frustratingly beyond your control, Wednesday’s move by your ruler Mars into Aries, begins a five-week cycle of personal review and transformation. And suddenly you recognise what you learned, experienced or who you met, especially in seemingly unfair situations, as valuable. There’s no need to rush. Savour each day of this thrilling cycle.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

This is no time for hasty decisions. Instead regard this week’s events, both welcome and not so, as preparation for this Friday’s Taurus New Moon, which constitutes a sort of personal new year. Between these and what you’ve learned over the recent rather unsettling weeks, you’ll have plenty to think about and, most importantly, a fresh perspective on your future.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

After seeking answers from others, you look within. Uncomfortable as reflecting on already unsettling issues can be, persist and you’re soon reaping rewards in the form of a deeper understanding of situations, others and yourself. Tempting as it is to discuss these, let those insights mellow until your ruler Mercury’s move into Gemini on the 30th brings it all together.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

Your instinct to help others is so powerful that often you lend a hand without a thought. Ironically, when it’s the reverse, and others extend themselves to you, you’ll refuse without realising it. Now, however, well-deserved support is coming your way in several areas of your life. The trick is, first, to recognise it and, second, to embrace it.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

By now you’ve probably realised that with times changing, certain elements of your life must also change. The question is how. This week the puzzle pieces appear, although you’re unlikely to see a clear image until after Friday’s New Moon, which brings insights about what must go and, as important, potential new ways of thinking, working, living and loving.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

Sometimes errors, misunderstandings or obstacles can be more informative than straightforward questions. View this week’s frequent and often peculiar twists in that light, and instead of simply putting things right, you’ll delve into their background. What you learn isn’t just informative, you realise why and how changes in both long-standing habits and once cherished goals must be updated.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

For ages you’ve been encouraging those you care about, personally or professionally, to take the initiative. Now they do. While you’re proud, you’re also surprisingly anxious. Deep down you fear their success means they’ll no longer need you. This is when you discover that bond is based not on what you do for them, but on deep and lasting feelings.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

Recently, you’ve battled changes you regarded as both unnecessary and a nuisance. Now a fresh perspective on them, and on changes in your own life, make you realise they’re both timely and vital. The resulting optimism isn’t just merited, you’ve begun preparing for early May’s Scorpio Full Moon, when you finally face and overcome persistent and frustrating dilemmas.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

While others have struggled with recent and dramatic developments, you’ve thrived. Having long sensed their arrival, you’ve eagerly embraced the new and unfamiliar. The details involved are another matter. They’re boring. Tempting as it is to do the minimum, you’d run into serious problems. You’re beginning a fabulous new cycle. It would be a shame if minor issues created complications.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

This week’s events corner you into changes you regard as unwise. Dire as that seems, each is part of a pattern so new you’re still unable to discern what’s in your best interests and what isn’t. So go with the flow, knowing that if your suspicions are correct, you can change things back later. But it’s unlikely you’ll want to.

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

Your view of recent developments depends entirely on whether you’ve recognised events as breakthroughs, or are still struggling to stick with the familiar. The world around you is changing. So, too, must elements of your life – this week, your work and lifestyle. Once you’re regarding the unexpected as the invitation to the future that it is, the rest is easy.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

Even the most down to earth of Pisceans has a powerful intuitive streak, so you sense what’s coming long before others do. Yet recent events have surprised even you, perhaps because they involve situations you’d rather not think about. Uncomfortable as dwelling on these is, what you learn about yourself, others and changes more than compensates for the effort.
