STARS WEEK AUGUST 10
Monday, August 10th, 2009

ARIES

March 20 – April 18

The trick to making the best of this challenging and often contentious week is to focus on learning what you can from each and every situation. That ensures that instead of struggling to overcome obstacles, you concentrate on the actual circumstances you’re facing. Thus, whether your win or lose, you’ll acquire a lasting knowledge of the people and circumstances involved.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

Worrying as the shake-ups triggered by the recent eclipse may have been, you and those around you will be discussing potential changes that, previously, you hoped would never happen. Now they might, and with every day you’re feeling far more positive about them. You should. The more you explore even unsettling changes, the more you’ll realise that they’re long overdue.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

Being accommodating by nature, you can usually find a way to accomplish what you need to, yet keep others happy. Now, however, you must focus intently on your requirements, often over those of others. Initially you might find this challenging. But with Mars, planet of ego, in your sign, life’s about learning to put you and your interests first.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

ages you’ve been justifying – to yourself and others – arrangements that are just plain unfair. True, once they may have been in some way useful. Or, perhaps, others cornered you into commitments and you’ve been too soft-hearted to extricate yourself. Whatever the case, this is the week when you to say enough is enough, then do something about it.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

You have a lot of thinking to do. All this reflection is in preparation for the Leo New Moon later this month, when it will be time to say farewell to certain pursuits and goals. While this might constitute a temporary loss, you’re making room for far more worthwhile activities, some of which make themselves known this week.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

Having struggled to think of good excuses to escape from certain increasingly burdensome obligations, this week’s events will do the job for you. Having tried being subtle and achieved nothing, you forget about being gracious. Often, in fact, you’re just plain blunt. This works, and better yet, this forthright approach proves even more helpful when you’re pursing intriguing new ideas.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

This week’s planetary emphasis is on love and life’s pleasures. If that sounds like you’re in for a wonderful time, it’s true. However, this also means you’ll have to be vigilant about not allowing certain individuals to undermine who or what you encounter. You know who they are, and avoiding them requires you make it very clear you’re busy elsewhere.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

While recent forthright discussions cleared up a great deal of confusion, don’t imagine that’s the last of these. Not only will last week’s eclipse have raised yet more issues, the resulting changes mean you must work together with others. Ironically, the more open you are to their suggestions, the better this will go. Once you understand that, the rest is easy.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

Sometimes you discover you’ve accumulated more activities, goals and relationships than you have hours in the day, so must conduct a serious review, then a giant clear out. That time has come. Not only will this simplify your life, you’ll be free to pursue the remarkable opportunities promised by brilliant aspects to your ruler Jupiter later in the week.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

Usually, clashes with others are merely tedious. But as they’re being just as stubborn about certain arrangements as you are, there’s something worthwhile to be learned. Focus on acquiring this knowledge instead of on having your way, and you’ll not only resolve differences swiftly, you’ll also be in exactly the right frame of mind to spot exciting, and unexpected, offers.

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

Others are a hurry to make plans. But because last week’s Aquarius eclipsed Full Moon introduced both changes into existing arrangements and new, exciting but unsettling options for the future, you need time to both reflect and explore. Bear in mind, however, that because most changes are inevitable, it’s not a matter of whether or not they’ll happen, but when.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

Think carefully before you agree to others’ ideas or suggestions. While their intentions are good, they haven’t thought things through in depth. What’s more, recent changes in your own circumstances must be considered before anything’s agreed. Begin talking things through now and by the week’s close you’ll not only have dealt with these, you’ll actually have improved on their arrangements.

STARS WEEK AUGUST 3
Monday, August 3rd, 2009

ARIES

March 20 – April 18

Just when you thought decisions involving elements of your work or lifestyle would go smoothly, they turn into tedious power struggles. Obviously, the resulting delays are irritating. But they’re actually doing you a favour, because they prevent you from finalising arrangements before Thursday’s eclipsed Full Moon, which promises dramatic developments that could change everything, and in a twinkling.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

There are few things you loathe more than being badgered by those who’re trying to impose their views on you. However, because planetary activity involves Pluto, which signifies both truth and transformation, others’ ideas could reveal vital facts, some of which could free you from restrictive beliefs or arrangements. Tempting as it is to ignore provocative statements, they’re well worth exploring.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

This week’s frank exchanges and unexpected revelations alter your perspective on numerous situations – and individuals – some dramatically and permanently. In most cases this is good, as it eliminates half-truths and a few outright lies. However, some of what you learn will be disillusioning, enough you might find yourself reconsidering plans you’ve simply assumed would proceed as previously agreed.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

Either too much of your time or money has gone in one direction when it would have been better employed elsewhere, or somebody owes you bigtime. Or, possibly, both. This week’s events expose these, which means you must discuss delicate matters frankly and, perhaps, tread on a few toes. With Thursday’s eclipse forcing issues, this couldn’t be more timely.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

You dislike few things more than conducting a painstaking review of past issues. Tedious as this is, minor problems or misunderstandings could fester into something more serious. Only once you’ve actually discussed these will you realise how they were already undermining certain close relationships. Besides, the resulting insights – about others and yourself – prove invaluable, now and in the future.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

It could be difficult circumstances or a desire to avoid upsetting others that’s kept you from raising tricky situations. But with your ruler Mercury moving into Virgo and aspecting the uncompromising Pluto, these can no longer be ignored. Similarly, sudden changes in on-going arrangements force a serious rethink of unacknowledged habits. Both are significant, far more than you realise.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

For ages, you’ve avoided even mentioning potentially upsetting issues, fearing the resulting dramas. Now, because circumstances expose these, nobody can blame you. Yet others may still try. If so, be tough. As important, take this opportunity to reorganise things so they’re fairer to you and others. Maintaining this frankness ensures you avoid a repeat of these unfair arrangements in the future.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

You believe that what others don’t know can’t hurt you. So, even the most sociable of Scorpios, keeps certain provocative facts and delicate feelings under wraps. Consequently, when these are exposed by events, you’re concerned. However, you soon experience a completely unanticipated freedom. Once you stop worrying, you realise how much effort to conceal these, and how little they matter.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

Agonising over decisions, even serious ones, isn’t your style. Tempting as it is to opt out of what could be lengthy debates about finances, personal and involving others, you owe it to yourself to get involved. The facts that emerge could have a lasting impact on your financial well being. This is a small price to pay for keeping up to date.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

Situations involving finances and partners, at work or at home, and are already chaotic and are complicated by unspoken issues and confusion about responsibilities. Raising these isn’t easy, but once you’re actually discussing them frankly, you’ll resolve them with amazing ease. Even more important, this enables you to tackle other persistent problems you thought you’d just have to live with.

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

Bear in mind the difference between exploring every new idea or offer, which you must, and agreeing to any one. The more you’ve learned about and considered, the better prepared you’ll be for the sudden, unexpected and life-changing events triggered by Thursday’s Aquarius eclipsed Full Moon. Unsettling as some seem initially, what’s least likely could prove to be your best option.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

Exciting as recently discussed plans seem, you’ve worried that putting these into place would upset others. But sudden events are forcing your hand. Go along with even seemingly disruptive changes. You may not understand why now, but those about whom you’ve been so concerned need a shake up of this nature to get them going. And so do you.

STARS WEEK JULY 27
Tuesday, July 28th, 2009

ARIES

March 20 – April 18

Urgent as things seem, this week’s more about talk than action. You’re assessing the impact of events triggered by recent eclipses on your work or lifestyle. Equally, you’re discussing others’ plans and view of changes. Whatever conclusions you draw, keep things loose until after the final eclipse of this cycle, in early August, which promises to introduce yet more unexpected twists.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

After a period of upheaval, this week’s stunning developments are so unexpected that you’re wary. Besides, taking advantage of them would require changes beyond anything you’d anticipated. At least explore these. Once things are clearer, you’ll realise how well they’d fit into new arrangements. Still, you’ve reached only the halfway point in changes, so regard any arrangements as flexible.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

Others may be complaining nonstop about the chaos triggered by July’s eclipses, but you’ve spotted the potential in even disruptive developments. Discuss this. Unenthusiastic as the initial reception may be, by the week’s close you’ve created a lively and worthwhile exchange. Ordinarily you’d start making plans, but with early August’s eclipse shaking things up further, ideally these will wait.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

The recent Cancer eclipsed New Moon will have shaken up circumstances as much as it did your perspective on your life and future, so the current talkative mood is timely. Pose questions and listen carefully to others’ answers. While you won’t necessarily take their advice, getting a range of perspectives stimulates your own thinking and leads to ultimately worthwhile alliances.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

The sudden developments triggered by July’s two eclipses have forced you to review arrangements you’ve regarded as rock solid. Obviously, this is disruptive. But it also opens your mind to previously unappealing options or those just now appearing. Explore these with your customary zeal, always conscious that nothing can be considered final until after late August’s Leo New Moon.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

While you may already be aware of certain reasons you should keep your thoughts to yourself, frank discussions reveal others. As you gather facts and learn more about others’ views, you begin making suggestions. This takes discipline but ensures that by early August, when your ruler Mercury finally moves into Virgo, you’ll be well informed enough to say what needs saying.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

If ever there were a time to accept any and all offers graciously, it’s now. True, some may be overwhelming or simply not fit. However, by the week’s close, what’s emerged regarding changes in existing arrangements and the shifting views of others alters your perspective considerably. Still, ensure decisions are tentative, as yet more changes are coming.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

By now you’ve undoubtedly noticed how once pivotal arrangements have changed – or in certain cases, simply vanished. While the disappearance of some is worrying, seeing others go has been an unexpected relief. It’s also opened the door to new activities. A few have long been on your mind but others appear from nowhere. Explore them all but avoid solid commitments.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

Everybody else has been complaining about the chaos caused by unexpected twists and turns, but you’ve spotted the promise in these changes. Finally, during this week, others recognise how worthwhile even unsettling developments could be. And even then, these insights surface only gradually. Still, although discussions require uncharacteristic patience, it’s well justified by what you learn.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

Once you understand this week’s about assembling plans, but finalising nothing, you’ll actually enjoy its seemingly endless discussions. Each reveals a new side of recent developments but, more importantly, offers a fresh take on necessary alterations in various areas of your life. Do more listening than talking. What you learn will contribute substantially to the far-reaching changes that, ultimately, you make.

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

Decisions seem urgent but, actually, during this week just prior to the potentially life-changing Aquarius eclipsed Full Moon, you’re better off meditating on what works and what doesn’t. Acknowledging the latter ends struggles to justify burdensome friendships or obligations. Better yet, it frees you to embrace the remarkable cycle of change that begins in early August.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

For ages you’ve felt that certain wonderful ideas weren’t being given adequate attention, but your efforts to get others interested achieved little. Now it all changes. Discussions about these and new, if disruptive, concerns fill the week. Once again, there’s reluctance to take things further. Be patient. While you’ve spotted their promise, not everybody is as quick on the pick up.

STARS WEEK JULY 20
Monday, July 20th, 2009

ARIES

March 20 – April 18

Discussions about various options involving your work or lifestyle have seemed endless and understandably, you’re getting impatient. Still, do nothing until after this Wednesday’s eclipse, which is likely to shake things up, and in completely unexpected ways. Meanwhile, focus on overcoming any frustrating roadblocks. If you’re ready to move fast, the coming days’ sudden developments should do the trick.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

Having lived with confusion all month, you’d think everything that could change would have. But with two eclipses introducing unexpected developments between now and early August, there’s more to come. The thought’s exhausting. But soon you’ll be intrigued, and not just by the extent and promise of these developments, but by how they could free you from seemingly unrelenting dilemmas.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

Others seem determined to get you to make solid plans. But your instincts are to keep things loose. This is wise, which means your biggest challenge is distracting those who’re determined to get you to commit. Instead of explaining your reservations, involve them with you in the exploration process. That will both keep them busy and prove mutually informative.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

Wednesday’s Cancer eclipsed New Moon ends a month-long cycle of personal reflection and far-reaching change. You’re probably feeling confused and that your life’s in chaos. But this is only the disarray that accompanies progress. Tempting as it is to stick to what you know, muster the courage to seize on seemingly risky offers or ideas. You’ll never regret it.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

Events that could rearrange elements of your life are both sudden and, as decisions are up to others, worrying. However, the individuals in question are actually better informed than you are. So tempting as it is to keep changes to a minimum or dispute their decisions, instead go along with them. You’ll soon realise how wise they were.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

Sudden changes in circumstances or the situation of others are having a knock-on effect on your life, but for various reasons you’ve no say about it. Ironically, the resulting confusion forces you to deal with various existing arrangements and future plans from a different and, ultimately, far more productive perspective. Knowing that, explore your options and keep any arrangements loose.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

Because July’s two eclipses, on the 7th and this Wednesday, both trigger far-reaching changes in your work or lifestyle, you’re already in transition. And by now you’ve probably realised that what’s least expected can also prove remarkably worthwhile. Bear this in mind now as, although things are still in transition, you must say no to certain plans and yes to others.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

Events during July’s first half should have convinced you that what you regard as unwelcome events could actually be in your best interests. Remember this now, when others’ decisions force you to relinquish arrangements or associations that are dear to your heart. Challenging as letting go is, it clears the way for the new and timely developments coming your way.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

The obstacles you’re facing have appeared at exactly the wrong moment. Only weeks ago you committed to new ventures that, while exciting, are making demands on your time, money and certain close relationships. Difficult as this week may be, every dilemma offers its own variety of lesson, each of which will come in handy when the pace picks up again.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

By now you’ve undoubtedly realised that tackling life with your usual swift efficiency can actually make things worse. With continual changes, solid facts have been in short supply and confused even the simplest arrangements. Knowing that, adopt an uncharacteristically easy-going attitude about plans. This avoids unnecessary struggles but also allows you to focus on learning from events, not micro-managing them.

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

Every day raises yet more questions about your life, close relationships and future. This is unsettled but also perfectly normal for the weeks just prior to the potent Aquarius eclipsed Full Moon on August 6th. What’s coming apart is only clearing the way for either a new and improved version of existing arrangements or something far better than you’d imagined possible.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

For ages you’ve been worrying about tricky arrangements in which others either have all the control or are cleverly manipulating the situation – and you – to suit their requirements. While you’ve been unable to do much about this, you’ll soon be able to impose both order and justice. Knowing that, bide your time. You’ll soon be making decisive moves.

STARS WEEK JULY 13
Monday, July 13th, 2009

ARIES

March 20 – April 18

Your instinctive inquisitiveness serves you well now, as amazing ideas and offers appear, some so suddenly you’re taken aback. Explore everything, even what seems uninteresting or situations that would require you give up a certain amount of freedom. This is a small sacrifice and will be worth it. And ignore practical obstacles. With eclipses changing everything, many will be swept away.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

Usually you’re the first to notice and deal with changes that influence practical or financial matters. But dramatic events conspire against a single, simple assessment. So you begin asking questions. This spurs an investigation of both existing arrangements, most of which are in transition, and new ideas you’d otherwise have ignored. What you learn revolutionises your thinking and, ultimately, your future.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

Fully appreciating how Mars’ move into Gemini will refine your tastes could take weeks. First, you notice you’re less willing to put up with boring people and situations, and more eager to explore intriguing options. With so much of the latter, this is timely. Show interest in what seems worthwhile but with so much still in transition, decisions should wait.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

Tempting as it is to say an immediate yes to appealing ideas or offers, show interest but no more. The Cancer eclipsed New Moon, on the 22nd, promises to revolutionise your thinking and objectives, so until then your time’s best spent in exploration – both of developments and of your feelings. There’s no better preparation for the life-changing events later in the month.

LEO

July 22 — August 21

Pleased as you are about thrilling events around you, concerns are keeping certain arrangements afloat are inescapable. The answer is: you can’t. Disastrous as that sounds, by July’s close welcome if sudden changes make your world a much bigger place, enough that you’ll happily be rearranging elements of your life you’ve regarded as fundamental to your happiness and stability.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

Initially, discussing options without the objective of making solid plans seems a waste of time. Then you realise that with virtual daily changes in the situations you’re dealing with, there’s no choice. Ironically, this frees you to explore options that are intriguing but seem impractical. As circumstances and your perspective shift, you realise they could be ideal.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

The current series of eclipses is substantially altering both certain fundamental relationships and the actual circumstances of your life. It’s also reshaping your attitude toward the latter, which means you’ll be interested in ideas or offers that, only recently, you’d have dismissed as uninteresting. Ideally, you’ll keep things loose until early August, when changes slow and decisions can be made.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

It’s no fun observing arrangements you’ve struggled to organise fall by the wayside. Still, tempting as it is to battle to keep these going, you’d regret it. Instead focus on the new, often unsettling but also innovative ideas currently being discussed. These aren’t just promising, they’ll fit in perfectly with the dramatic changes in your world triggered by the current cycle of eclipses.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

You’re juggling three perspectives on recent changes. The first involves being true to yourself and your dreams. The second is influenced by offers or ideas so exciting you can’t resist exploring then. And the third is others’ cautious advice. Well-meaning as the latter are, ignore them. The more courageous you are during this dramatic cycle, the more you’ll achieve.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

Understanding the extent and, more importantly, benefits of the unexpected developments triggered by the recent Capricorn eclipsed Full Moon could take ages. But you’ve decisions to make, some urgent. Or so it seems. Actually, with this cycle of eclipses – and the accompanying changes – continuing until early August, there’s lots more to learn before you even think of making commitments.

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

Others are more excited about the current so-called opportunities than you are, perhaps because you’re thinking mostly about the disruption they’d cause. Ignore demands to commit to plans and instead explore. Not only will the resulting familiarity help overcome your reservations, this ensures you’re free of commitments for the even more dramatic developments triggered by early August’s Aquarius eclipsed Full Moon.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

If you’re to capitalise on the stunning developments that accompany the recent alliance between the magical Jupiter and your ruler Neptune, you’ll need to rid yourself of certain fantasies. This may take time, which – urgent as things seem – you have plenty of. Just ensure that you make it clear you’re interested in exploring these options. Then let the miracles come your way.
