Gemini
22nd May – 21st June

The sun is in your sign till the 21st, so the spotlight is on the Gemini wavelength, which champions communication in all its fabulous forms, and is into creating connections that get a message across loud and clear. Very satisfying this is too for you, especially around the 3rd, during the powerful annual new moon (new intentions) in your sign. Midmonth there’s the re-emergence of relationship stuff from last year, as trust/control planet Pluto is back in this area of your chart till November. And there’s an important turnaround for you at this time too, unfolding out of the deep and intense full moon energy around the 18th.

Aries
21st March – 20th April

Your ruler Mars, planet of priorities, is moving through the angle of your chart that deals with the heart of the matter and matters of the heart. Which means this is what you want to see and deal with first in all situations, and for the first half of the month there’s an emphasis on the importance of communication and information relating to this. Then there’s some strong energy brewing in events after midmonth, and the challenge is to dig deep for faith and belief in yourself; great for unearthing any lost or hidden treasure within.

Taurus
21st April – 21st May

There’s been an ongoing saga with finance and/or property for a while now; not unusual for most, and especially not Taurus, but this particular story, made with a metaphor of planet movements, has been about a change of perspective and a change of direction on a theme of value and values. There’s a huge focus on this during the first week, but also from midmonth, when a significant turning point in this coincides with the reappearance of unfinished business from some time ago. There’s a powerful full moon for you regarding this, around the 18th.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July

There’s a real hunger for communication this month, especially with such interesting information floating around in the first week. And stay open to how this info can reach you, as your gut instinct is second to none in letting you know what’s what, and intuition is strong now too. The sun shines into your sign from the 21st (always on the day of summer solstice, you see), coinciding with some very powerful lunar energy around full moon time from the 18th. Make sense of it with that gut instinct of yours, as logic hits its limit when things feel this deep.

Leo
23rd July – 23rd August

Now that feisty, frisky Mars is travelling through your sign things are heating up, especially the courage of your conviction that your life is what you make it, therefore nobody does it better than you. It’s Mars initiative mixing with Leo self belief that can make you such a force to be reckoned with now, as long as you remember it’s only your life you have such power over, because Pluto (trust versus control) is going to be a major player in the full moon energy around the 18th. Crack that one and the benefits are beyond measure.

Virgo
24th August – 22nd September

First half of the month there’s a big emphasis on long-term aims and ambitions, as the planets are brainstorming in the status and success part of your chart. A new moon here on the 3rd is like a clean slate (and a Virgo slate is always the cleanest), just waiting to be filled with fresh intentions for the future. And there’s a turning point reached after midmonth when your ruler Mercury changes direction, symbolising you’re in the mood to move forward; then planet Pluto arrives carrying some unfinished business that makes for an intense but interesting full moon time from the 18th.

Libra
23rd September – 23rd October

Pluto, planet of deep change has been hovering around a key part of your chart for many months now. As it’s the part of your chart that deals with home and family, there might have been some literal changes and renovation work, but underneath it’s really all about a very personal and very emotional overhaul of yourself. This month Pluto plunges you back into the past again somehow (on a theme of faith and belief), and it’s most potent from around the 18th, thanks to an intensely powerful full moon involving Pluto and your ruler Venus (planet of value/s).

Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November

Both your ruling planets, passionate Mars and intense Pluto, are in the spotlight this month, which indicates a significant time for you. Mars makes it easy to feel you are getting to the heart of the matter in situation, or that there’s no doubt events are leading you there. And with Pluto in reverse motion till November, there might be the sense of revisiting or returning the past, or that your past is your future somehow; a strange sensation for Scorpio, the sign most likely to burn its bridges, but a bit of unfinished business is irresistible too (especially around from the 18th)

Sagittarius
3rd November – 21st December

Don’t know if you remember all the brouhaha at New Year about planet Pluto leaving your sign after a 13 year stay, but anyway, it’s back! Just till November mind you, but it means the return of unfinished business or of stuff you thought was gone for good. Some of this will be ever so welcome, like a feeling of renewal in situations, or of second chances, but some you might prefer to see the back of as soon as poss. The trick there is to not make a big deal of the unwanted stuff, or you’ll make it stronger (energy follows attention).

Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January

Back in January, transformation planet Pluto began its marathon 24 year trip through your sign. Pluto transforms what it touches through experiences that require trust in the unknown, so this has been an important theme of situations since then. This month Pluto nips out of your sign till November, to take care of unfinished business from last year, which might put some plans on hold, or perhaps ease the pressure a tad, allowing plans to unfold in a more familiar and therefore more comfy way. But who knows? That’s the thing with Pluto; you just have to play it by ear when it comes to change.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February

There’s a glorious new moon in the most creative angle of your chart on the 3rd. It’s fertile ground to plant wishes and dreams, but it seems it’s only activated via heart connections, so the focus for the month is whatever makes you feel good, whatever makes you want to shout from the rooftops, and therefore whatever makes your heart want to burst with joy. And if fodder for joy connection is thin on the ground at the mo, hang in there till after midmonth when mind planet Mercury symbolises a changing perspective and Pluto dares you to keep the faith.

Pisces
19th February – 20th March

The focus is on emotional attachments, home and family matters, with a number of planets collecting in this area of your chart for much of the month. It puts an emphasis on communication, and Mercury, the planet associated with communication and information, reaches the end of a retrograde phase (appearing to move backwards) in this part of your chart after the 18th. This symbolises an important turnaround or turning point for you that is really about a change in perspective or viewpoint. It comes at the same time as some powerful full moon energy carrying a theme of unfinished business; so perhaps the two are linked.
