Aries (March 21-April 19)

Your attention now turns to home, family and your private life. Many of you will be involved more than usual with a parent. Because of this, some of you will cocoon at home and relax among familiar surroundings. However, countering this energy, your ruler Mars is still in your sign, along with lucky Jupiter, and this means you want to be physically active! The shift of Venus will attract interactions with siblings, relatives and neighbours. Something will make you happier on a daily basis. A blessing!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This month you’ll be running around with an outboard motor strapped to your butt. Definitely Errands, appointments, short trips and visits with siblings, relatives and neighbours will keep you busy! You’re eager to enlighten others. You want to tell someone what you think about something. If you can squeeze in a little vacation – this is a great idea. Meanwhile, your ruler Venus, a planet that attracts things to you (especially money) is moving into your Money Houses! Hello? This means you might get richer. Ka-ching!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

It’s time to reflect on your values. “What really matters?” You don’t want to be 90 years old, looking in the mirror saying, “I blew it.” You want greater control of your world through what you own. Meanwhile, fair Venus in your sign makes you reach out to others. It also makes you charming and diplomatic. Seek peace and patch up problems with others. This is a good time to make friends a priority. It’s also a great time for a vacation! Buy wardrobe goodies for yourself because you will like what you see in the mirror. Enjoy your good fortune!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This month the Sun is in your sign helping you to recharge your batteries for the rest of year. It’s time to replenish and restore yourself. You will attract important people and favourable situations to you. (Ah the power of the Sun!) Actually, this is an empowering birthday month for you because this year, lucky Jupiter is at the top of your chart. (Happens only once in 12 years.) Jupiter makes you look successful! This is the classic time for a promotion or public recognition by your peers.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Your personal year is ending, which means this month, you’re waiting at the train station for your ship to come in. Nevertheless, you can use this time to make plans for your new year ahead. What do you want to achieve in the next year? Set some goals because goals give you a clearer focus on what is important. Goals also give you more clarity in decision-making. And they give you a sense of purpose. Venus is now in your House of Friendships, which means you will schmooze more, especially with artistic, creative people.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You’re popular! Seek out friends and get involved in groups and organizations. Your idealism is aroused, which is why you will want to help those less fortunate. (When we’re aware of the suffering of others, we become more compassionate.) Fair Venus is at the top of your chart, boosting your business creds, attracting people who can help you. Romance with a boss might begin. Someone will ask for your advice about how to make something look better. (“First, remove the yellow crime tape.”) Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Ta da! The Sun is at the top of your chart this month capturing you in a spotlight that is flattering. This is why people admire you and see you as super capable even if you don’t do anything special. (Good lighting is everything.) This means this is the perfect month to make your pitch or go after what you want because you look great to everyone. Meanwhile, Venus makes you want to travel for pleasure. It might also create a romantic relationship with someone “different.” (Exciting!)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Einstein said, “I must be willing to give up what I am in order to become what I will be.” You need to give up the familiarity of your velvet rut to explore more of the world. This includes intellectual exploration, which is why you might choose to study or take courses instead of jetting off someplace new. Fair Venus has just moved into one of your Money Houses, which means the financial or practical help you need (perhaps an inheritance) might come to you! (Where there’s a will, there’s a way.) Romance will be affectionate and sexy!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Venus is opposite your sign this month, which means it’s a great time for love affairs, marriages, partnerships and relations with coworkers. Venus will even improve relations with your enemies. (!)You can use this month to patch up difficult relationships and misunderstandings. Meanwhile, you will have more involvement with financial matters and shared property, which includes taxes, debt and inheritances. You will also feel emotionally passionate this month, and at times, even compulsive. (Just so you know.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

It’s been six months since your birthday, which means certain things in your life are culminating. Be respectful and courteous when dealing with authority figures. Don’t burn bridges. If a situation isn’t working out right now --let it go. Go with what works and incorporate this into your life so that you move forward with growth and progress. Venus will promote warm relations with coworkers. Venus will also boost your health. However, watch out for seconds on dessert because Venus loves sweets! A workrelated romance might begin.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Grab that toolbox or briefcase and get to work because you’re setting the bar high and you want to be productive! Basically, you want to manage your life well. One quirky detail is you might have to work on behalf of others, which means you might not be your own boss. Nevertheless, you will derive satisfaction from a job well done. Venus will bring you rewards because Venus will be travelling through the most fun part of your chart this month attracting creative activities, social outings, vacations, sports events, romance and fun times with kids. Yay me!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Great news! This month is full of social outings, exciting vacations, romantic diversions, sports events and fun times with kids. Yes, it’s your turn to play and socialize! But at a deeper level, you want to express the real you, especially your creative talents. You want the freedom to be who you are. Expect relationships to be more lighthearted and fun-loving. Romance will sizzle! Enjoy redecorating projects. Make your home more attractive because you want to entertain. Invite family over for good food and drink because the vibes will be loving. www.georgianicols.com
