Aquarius
Jan 20—Feb 18
(January 20—February 18)
Who scared you silent, Aquarius? The water bearer is famously outgoing making this recent meek-streak out of character. When a boss or co-worker asks for an opinion on the 10th, find your inner megaphone and say it as loud and proud as an inside voice allows.
Aries
March 21—April 19
(March 21—April 19)
Though Venus is commonly known as the planet of love, it also dabbles in HR. A new professional opportunity will pop up around the 2nd, making now the time to mull a difficult question: If it were time to take a leap, would you need a push?
Cancer
June 21—July 22
(June 21—July 22)
Mercury has a hair-raising reputation, but it looks pretty fabulous on Cancer. It enhances listening abilities, balances emotions and makes antsy Crabs perform better under pressure. Anticipating a tough talk or an awkward convo? Push it to the 29th when Mercury is most powerful.
Capricorn
Dec 22—Jan 19
(December 22—January 19)
Mars doesn’t often turn retrograde, so its transit from the 1st through the 19th is ultra-powerful. The god of war loves to stir up trouble, avoid unnecessary confrontation until the astrological instigator has left the building.
Gemini
May 21—June 20
(May 21—June 20)
Gems are giving trees—always putting others first (or in Gemini Angelina Jolie’s case, outright adopting them). On the 20th, allow yourself some alone time. The Sun is pushing for reinvention and that can only happen if focus draws inward. Ending up as a stump just isn’t a good look.
Leo
July 23—Aug 22
(July 23—August 22)
As far as lucky planets go, Jupiter is the cosmic jackpot. Though its influence is always positive, the path to joy can be paved with challenges. On the 17th face difficult emotions head on and prepare to mend a fence on the 20th. After that, it’s straight cherries ahead.
Libra
Sept 23—Oct 22
(September 23—October 22)
It doesn’t take much to throw a Libra’s scales off balance and that’s what naughty Mars banked on when it entered in 2013. When tempers flare, remember that Mars feeds on frustration. Keeping cool starves it into submission.
Pices
Feb 19—March 20
(February 19—March 20)
Neptune, the planet of illusion, enters on the 9th with a warning: Beware of wolves in sheep’s clothing. Pisces’ deep devotion is an incredible trait…as long as it’s not wasted on the wrong people. Being a little extra wary on the 20th will keep the wool out of your eyes.
Sagittarius
Nov 22—Dec 21
(November 22—December 21)
Lately, life’s felt like a buffet at which Sags can’t get a plate. That changes when the full moon rises on the 12th. It signifies abundance, but remember to take small bites when it comes to a new work project. Bosses don’t relish cleaning up leftovers.
Scorpio
Oct 23—Nov 21
(October 23—November 21)
Saturn, much like bathing suit season, forces a difficult “slimming down” of Scorpios’ lives. From the 2nd to the 24th, pare down both mental and physical clutter. An organized mental junk drawer may mean an anxiety-free end of the month.
Taurus
April 20—May 20
(April 20—May 20)
Venus, the Sun and Mercury are visiting and they come bearing birthday gifts. Venus (Taurus’ ruler) brings harmony at home, the Sun helps lay the blueprints for an exciting project at work and decisive Mercury helps make a huge decision on the 20th. And you thought nothing could top a Keurig!
Virgo
Aug 23—Sept 22
(August 23—September 22)
The new moon on the 7th brings out the best in hardworking Virgos and spring is truly their season to shine. Plant the seeds for a promotion on the 10th and bank accounts will flourish by month’s end. Everything’s coming up green!
