Taurus (April 19-May 20)

The universe is rolling the dice now and saying it’s time to step forward and start new patterns, Taurus. This could be an exciting time, as you are presented with new beginnings and opportunities.

Knowing the endeavors you want to build toward in the year ahead would be especially helpful to start putting plans into action now. You’re in the spotlight, so you can easily move situations in your favor.

There also appears to be some tension in either your domestic life — or career near this time, too. Understand that you may have a lot on your plate.

Gemini (May 20-June 20)

Life has had its ups and downs in recent months and it appears you could be feeling the need to recharge your batteries now, Gemini. This would be an ideal time to practice mindfulness, stillness and serenity.

Rest, recharge and focus on your physical and mental health. If you do so, you could find that you are back in the running again! Others may begin work on a project in development behind the scenes near this time, too.

On a separate note, though, there appears to be some drama brewing in regard to one of the following areas: contracts or legalities, travel or intellectual pursuits or relatives. Do your best to proceed slowly.

Cancer (June 20-July 22)

As the heavens turn, Cancer, you will find yourself focused a bit more on what makes you happiest starting this week. You could find yourself more focused on hopes, goals, long-term aspirations and how you can reach a more profound level of fulfillment.

The best thing to do is to dust off that vision board and be clear in your strategies to manifest everything that you seek. You may also find that engaging with communities, attending events and linking up with your network of friends could be especially enjoyable.

On a separate note, there appears to be tension around financial matters near this time, too, so do your best to assess your resources.

Leo (July 22-Aug. 22)

This week will open doors when it comes to your professional life and how the public views you, Leo. In a simple sense, it could signal the arrival of a new job offer, a promotion or a favorable opportunity to soar higher up to your ambitions.

Some of you, though, might be more fixated on changing directions in your career, especially if you keep feeling like you’re banging on a glass ceiling that never seems to break. There also appears to be the potential for some fiery drama at this time, like a power struggle.

Virgo (Aug. 22-Sept. 22)

The cosmos is patting you on the back now and encouraging you to step toward a new horizon, Virgo. You’ll be able to pursue more expansion and growth, whether that is personally or professionally.

Something is telling you to “shake up the routine” and set sail to a new path, whether that’s physically as in with travel or metaphorically as in joining a spiritual group. Know that there’s a sense of adventure whispering in the winds.

Be aware, however, that there could be some significant tension at this time, either in regard to your health, routines, coworkers or your job. The best thing to do is to lie low!

Embrace an open door when it comes to increasing the wealth and stability in your life now, Libra. The weeks ahead could add more of a focus on large financial matters. Because of this, money could be coming in and going out.

Some of you may see a transition around a large line of credit, a debt, a bonus, an inheritance, or a settlement. However, be sure not to rack up too much debt at this time, as you could be pulling your hair out about it down the line.

On a separate note, there appears to be some major tension in your personal life, especially in regard to either your love life or friendships. Children, too, could stir the pot on a little drama.

Scorpio (Oct. 22-Nov. 21)

It’s time to focus on partnerships, Scorpio. This is a major period to assess where you and a significant other stand. This could be in relation to a collaborator, business associate, or in your personal life.

Making long-term plans, stepping closer to one another, signing on the dotted line or even making deep promises could all soon be on the table if you are in true alignment. If you aren’t working in tandem, you may need to assess the situation’s longevity.

On a separate note, there could be some tension near this time, likely in either your domestic life or professional world.

This week is all about picking up the pace, Sagittarius. You could find that there’s a flurry of responsibilities filling up your calendar at this time — all likely tied to your productivity, health and routines.

In a very happy way, there could be opportunities to improve them, like taking on more projects from your employer, moving to a new position or hitting the ground running to tackle health goals. You may instead realize that you need to rebalance your work and life balance in a better way.

Also note that near this time there could be some drama brewing in regard to your intellectual pursuits, a travel situation or even regarding contracts and legalities.

Capricorn (Dec. 21-Jan. 19)

The time is now to let your heart radiate like the Sun, Capricorn. The weeks ahead could provide copious amounts of joy for you to open your soul to the beauty of the universe.

Turn attention to the love that you give and what fulfills you, especially when it comes to pleasure, romance, passions, hobbies or creativity. This is an excellent period to focus on dating if single or increasing the spark in your rapport if coupled up. Love could sparkle like a diamond in the sky!

However, there could also be some push-pull energy at this time, too. This may be in relation to financial matters or a settlement.

The heavens are encouraging you to dig deep at this time and assess your emotional stability, Aquarius.

On a more practical level, this could be tied to your past, your domestic life, real estate or even family situations. There may be an opportunity to move things forward at this time, such as deciding to move, sign a fresh lease or make a change to your living environment.

There also may be a thunderstorm brewing as you square off with an opposing force or person who is not seeing eye-to-eye with you. Tension could be quite thick because of this potential mini-war.

Pisces (Feb. 18-March 20)

It is time to spread your wings like a butterfly, Pisces! You’ll feel buoyant, spontaneous and eager for a higher perspective.

Travel would be especially sweet now and in the weeks ahead. Socializing could be beautiful, too. Instead, some of you may become very invested in communications-related projects, contractual negotiations or greater intellectual pursuits in the time to come.

However, be aware that there could be some lava boiling beneath the radar, especially in regard to your health, routines, coworkers or employment matters.
