Monthly Horoscopes

(March 21st - April 19th)

The planets are lined up in the personal income section of your Solar Chart calling for an annual audit of your personal finances. The recent April Eclipse season is likely to have shaken you personally. So now you have to make practical decisions based on your values. It may be time to use your rainy-day funds, or perhaps you need to find ways to boost your health and personal wealth. Either way, you are assimilating matters to do with values, esteem and income.

 

(April 20th - May 20th)

May starts in Taurus season sparking celebrations of a personal nature. Of course, this could be your birthday, but it can also be the celebration of a very personal achievement. This is your ‘me, myself and I’ month. Your social life takes a serious turn, with an older friend upsetting the balance. It’s time to redress any imbalances by expanding your personal horizons, knowing that you have the resources to support you.

 

(May 21st - June 20th)

Inactivity is not a word usually linked to Gemini, but May is your annual recharge the batteries month. So, if ever you were to slow down then now is the time. Working behind the scenes is another possibility – withdrawing to focus on a cherished project. The idea is to take time out now to complete one cycle before starting your new birthday year. On another note, misunderstandings at work, or an older person’s white anting tactics will soon pass.

 

(June 21st - July 22nd)

This month you get by with a little help from your friends. You are celebrating your community through friendships, new and old, and groups and clubs. An important connection is likely to be formed in May, one that helps you see your destiny more clearly. This is also a ‘pay it forward’ month during which you light up those who enter your world with random acts of kindness.

 

(July 23rd - August 22nd)

You shine in your profession in May. Recognition comes for your achievements in your chosen career. This is because people in high places note your reputation and reward your efforts. You are also likely to get a chance to speak publicly, write, public or travel as a result of your experience in the workplace. A prominent woman makes an unexpected entrance or exit, influencing your life direction.

 

(August 23rd - September 22nd)

Foreign countries are highlighted in May. This could be because you are travelling, or perhaps you have friends or relatives visiting. It’s also possible that you immerse yourself in a study course, film festival or cultural or religious events with overseas connections. Teaching and study are also highlighted. Whatever your personal scenario, the idea is to stop sweating the details and broaden your horizons. This is a big picture month.

 

(September 23rd - October 22nd)

‘Gone with the Wind’ is a golden oldie book and film. Author Margaret Mitchell is quoted as saying: “Death, taxes and childbirth! There’s never any convenient time for them.” This is a quote that is likely to be front and centre in your mind this month. This is because the planets are lined up in the 8th House of your Solar chart which deals with birth, death, taxes and other people’s money. Your diplomacy skills are required in all of these areas in May.

 

(October 23rd - November 21st)

Relationships are the focus in May. This could be your connection with a significant partner, or possibly a business associate. Money matters are likely to be a key factor as you make a big decision, or your financial situation shifts. Singletons may be surprised by a new love interest. Married Scorpios note a change in a partner’s situation. Either way, Taurus Season opens a door with new opportunities to enhance your closest unions.

 

(November 22nd - December 21st)

Changes are afoot at work. This is not your profession, but rather your workaday life. It’s possible that your workplace is shifting with office rearrangements and workers coming and going. Or it’s you who make decisions that offer a better work/life balance. Coworkers may surprise you, offering support or stepping away from a toxic situation. Whatever your personal scenario, the fact is that you are ready to step away from situations that are stressful on a daily basis. You are ready to enjoy your work.

 

(December 22nd - January 19th)

Organisation consultant Marie Kondo has become famous for her suggestions to minimise mess by arranging material items according to whether they ‘spark joy’ or not. This is your month to be creative and to assess all physical, emotional, mental and spiritual matters on the basis of whether they ‘spark joy’ or not. You are usually more focussed on fulfilling your obligations. But this month you have the perfect excuse to have fun. Let go and lighten your load.

 

(January 20th - February 18th)

Household expenses come under scrutiny this month. Something or someone may have blown the budget. For instance, an unexpected maintenance job may have triggered your concerns and your assessment of running costs. Or perhaps you just have a feeling that it’s time to focus on the general living expenses of your household on a per-person basis. Food, utilities, transport and such like recurring costs are highlighted.

 

(February 19th - March 20th)

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the long-running Aussie tv series ‘Neighbours’ was true to life with everyone getting along well, more or less, and helping and supporting each other. This may be the case for you this month. However, it’s also possible that disputes with neighbours need to be resolved. Think back. How did you resolve disputes with your siblings? Or were you an only child, feeling isolated? These feelings can be faced, and you can move forward with positive relationships with both siblings and neighbours. Or perhaps it’s time to move away?

 

(March 21st - April 19th)

It’s a new year for the Rams of the Zodiac. The Sun is in Aries marking a new astrological cycle and new beginnings. You have plenty of initiative, and love to move on quickly, avoiding boredom. So, the question is: ‘what’s next?’ An influx or outflow of personal funds may help you decide and start a new personal chapter. A Solar Eclipse on April 8 in your Zodiac Sign is also a springboard for change.

 

(April 20th - May 20th)

The old Scottish saying, ‘the best-laid plans’ go awry, could be your motto in April because much is happening behind the scenes to disrupt your plans. April is your go with the flow month, one in which you can take a step back and reassess the past year before celebrating a new cycle around the sun when Taurus season begins. Pushing your own agenda could prove fateful. If possible, an indulgent health or spa retreat could be the answer.

 

(May 21st - June 20th)

Social matters are your theme for April. This could be a need for companionship, catching up with friends, old and new, or socialising with workmates. Or a special occasion may take precedence. You may have several big occasions on your calendar. A Solar Eclipse on April 8 lights up the social sector of your Solar Chart sparking awareness of your hopes, dreams an wishes and who in your community continues to offer support.

 

(June 21st - July 22nd)

This time of year is ideal for a stocktake of your professional goals and achievements. It’s time to recognise your own efforts, whether or not they are recognised by others. Have you been shouldering your professional responsibilities successfully? Are you steering a steady course towards your true north? Or do you need to make adjustments? The Solar Eclipse on April 8 lights up the public sector of your Solar Chart helping you see your next steps more clearly.

 

(July 23rd - August 22nd)

The Sun plays an important role in the lives of Leos. And so, the Solar Eclipse on April 8 is no small event, particularly if you are near its path. This cosmic event lights up your Solar Chart helping you see the big picture. Everyday chores take second place as you contemplate bigger issues such as world events, metaphysical matters, and the cycle of life. Private moments of grief may also quietly come and go as you come to terms with past memories.

 

(August 23rd - September 22nd)

It’s time to replace the old with the new. Anything that no longer works need to be recycled, throw out or given away. A Solar Eclipse on April 8 lights up the recycling centre of your Solar Chart providing an excellent opportunity to declutter your life. As a true Virgo you may already lead a frugal, minimalistic lifestyle. Nevertheless, look around. In particular, is your bookwork up to date? Do you need to streamline your finances?

 

(September 23rd - October 22nd)

Relationships, like gardens, need constant tending to stay healthy and bloom. As a Libra you know this, but some things are out of your control. And the Solar Eclipse on April 8 bring to light relationship matters that have escaped your attention. Your nearest and dearest may be restless, wanting to break free of everyday routines. It could also be you who is agitated. Although this is likely a temporary situation, it highlights issues that need to be addressed.

 

(October 23rd - November 21st)

Taking part in water activities boosts your health and wellbeing in April as this month highlights the need to focus on your health. You could take part in water classes at a nearby pool or go further afield to the beach or lake. Swimming, diving, sailing and kayaking are a few options. If all else fails perhaps install a small water feature in your living quarters. The idea is to calm and soothe for good health in April.

 

(November 22nd - December 21st)

You are destined to have fun in April, but not far from home. Household duties, and perhaps visitors, demand a focus on home and family. So, you find ways to be creative and playful in your own private world. You can write, teach, or be artistic at home. Or you could enjoy being creative with decorating your abode, or filling your garden with colour. Children may play a more prominent role this month, helping you discover ways to be more spontaneous.

 

(December 22nd - January 19th)

A positive mindset goes a long way for you in April. You need to avoid being stubborn, and to also do all that you can to focus on positive matters. A dismal outlook could upset your equilibrium and your private life. April is your month to find activities that improve your mental health and your enjoyment of home and family. You may also benefit from carrying out some home improvement, especially tasks that improve connections with neighbours.

 

(January 20th - February 18th)

April sees you brimming with bright ideas. Your motto could be ‘’a busy mind is a happy heart’. Your only challenge is whether or not these bright ideas cost a lot. Your budget may not be as big as your plans. If this is the case then you can write a list of priorities, and plan a timeline. You may also enjoy creating a vision board to help you manifest your desires.

 

(February 19th - March 20th)

Self-discipline goes a long way for Pisces in April. This is your month to learn to put yourself first, to take responsibility for caring and loving yourself. Planets lining up in Pisces call for self-soothing. Your finances also need monitoring. The trick is to take steps to improve your self-worth, and slowly work towards your personal goals, growing your self-esteem and income. You can also ask for help and support from those closest to you.

 

(March 21st - April 19th)

The weeks before your birthday offer a rare opportunity to slow down. This is your time to reassess the previous year, take stock of personal attributes and achievements and make some birthday resolutions. As the Sun moves into Aries on March 20, life once again picks up speed, which is how you usually like it. Planet Mercury moving into Aries on March 10 also means that you have a sharp mind. Perhaps you have a project that demands single-minded focus.

 

(April 20th - May 20th)

Your social life picks up in March as planets line up in the communal sector of your Solar Chart. Changes may be afoot in your clubs, groups and friendship circles. Communications are unclear causing problems. You need all of your innate Taurus patience to persist in clearing up misunderstandings. A prominent authority figure may not appreciate you pushing your own agenda. So take a deep breath and try to see the big picture before getting involved in group politics.

 

(May 21st - June 20th)

This month sees you managing several tasks at work. You focus on one while keeping track of others. Decisions need to be made as you switch back and forth. Fortunately, juggling comes naturally to you. However, you may need to make a bigger decision, based on whether you want to keep juggling in your current work situation. It’s time to see the bigger picture before taking any firm action.

 

(June 21st - July 22nd)

Legal matters are front and centre in March. This could be as simple as needing to sign off on a contract, and as complicated as settlements and disputes with personal and business partners. The key is to remain calm, easier said than done under March’s planetary lineup. As a soft-hearted Cancer you would be best advised to seek professional advice before entering any business, legal or property agreement.

 

(July 23rd - August 22nd)

Activities with a common purpose feature in March. Anything that involves a joint decision or enterprise is highlighted, particularly one involving personal or business partnerships. As a Leo, you are a natural leader. The time has come to ensure that you are involving your nearest and dearest in important decisions. March is about co-operation, and a deep-dive into intimacy. This could be sparked by a change in your joint finances, an inheritance, taxes or investments. Single Leos may meet a significant personal or business partner, or sign an important contract.

 

(August 23rd - September 22nd)

The health and wellbeing of yourself, and a significant partner, are highlighted this month. The time has come to make a commitment to ensuring that your work/life balance is healthy. This means being serious about shaking any bad habits and replacing them with good ones. This is easier said than done because the brain is a key factor in changing habits, and you have a particularly strong mind. You may need to adopt a daily practice such as meditation or yoga to help you reset.

 

(September 23rd - October 22nd)

March is your month to reduce stress and improve your mood through fun filled and creative activities. Expressing yourself through artistic and creative activities is like a prescription for your mental health. The time is ripe for you to incorporate a hobby or pastime into your daily routine, either for personal pleasure or as part of your working life. The idea is to lighten up and have fun.

 

(October 23rd - November 21st)

Family history is the theme this month. This could be recent family sagas coming to light, or ancient history. Think ancestry.com. Either way, it’s time to focus on the younger members of your clan, clearing the past so that they have a positive future. This is a pivotal moment in your own personal story, in your private life and an opportunity to start a new chapter in your family.

 

(November 22nd - December 21st)

Family features during March. One family member could require extra attention as you travel for a special occasion such as a birthday, wedding, baptism etc. It’s also possible that a relative visits from interstate. Another possibility is that you plan some home maintenance, something that you have been putting off for a while. The focus is your private life, ensuring that you have firm foundations, and are fulfilling your responsibilities.

 

(December 22nd - January 19th)

March is a project planning month when you sit down with your various ideas and formulate a strategy. You need to ensure that you have a positive mindset and then move forward with a responsible plan. This is your month to organise your thoughts, something that you do well. Diagrams, lists, graphs, sketches and the like can all prove helpful, as can spreadsheets, tracking apps and such like.

 

(January 20th - February 18th)

Do you play offence or defence when it comes to your finances? This month sees you reassess your income, its flow in and out. Offence is trying to boost your income. Defence is managing spending habits. March sees you take stock, most likely triggered by an unexpected bill or change in your income. It’s possible a household expense or family member’s financial needs also prompt you to track your monetary habits.

 

(February 19th - March 20th)

The serious planet Saturn casts its shadow over your Zodiac Sign this month. This can be a positive influence as it helps you analyse exactly what makes you happy and healthy. It’s an excellent time to set boundaries, employ self-discipline and build a firm personal foundation for the future. However, it is important for you to be kind to yourself. Self-criticism is to be avoided at all costs. Rather think of other self words such as self-care, self-love, self-soothing and kindness to self. You are so kind to others. Now it’s time to give yourself the same respect.

 

(March 21st - April 19th)

Ambition is running high for the Rams of the Zodiac in February. You are keen to further your career objectives. This could because dollars are flowing out faster than they are coming in. Or possibly you have received a boost – a salary increase or burst of positive energy. You need to co-opt the help of friends and colleagues if you hope to move forward. Parenthood may also be high on the agenda. Perhaps your role as a parent, caregiver or grandparent is demanding more time and energy. Or perhaps you are deciding on whether or not to have a child. Whatever your personal scenario, you set your sights on moving forward with life plans.

 

(April 20th - May 20th)

It’s time to overhaul your life direction goals. You need goals to keep motivated. And as a true Taurus you can be determined to continue in a set direction, whether it is still working or not. Life changes and its prudent to reassess objectives. You need to assess your current life path and ensure that you are heading in the right direction. There’s no need to overthink matters. Trust your gut. And try to avoid clashes with influential people – bosses, parents and government officials. You may also need to be wary of being too overbearing in your relationships with younger people. February 17 and 22 are two key dates to help you clarify your plans.

 

(May 21st - June 20th)

Goal setting and big picture planning are themes for February. It’s time to use your imagination and expand the possibilities in one or more areas of your life. You may literally fly to a foreign land, or escape to a dream island. The idea is to get away from mundane matters. Your usual Tinkerbell or Peter Pan attitude to life may be a little less prominent now. Work or parental concerns or responsibilities can weigh heavily so plan ways to relieve the pressure. If all else fails you could take time each day to meditate, pray or visualise your bright future. Sports, religion, travel, the arts and other cultures can all provide positive escape routes.

 

(June 21st - July 22nd)

Every year, at this time, you can benefit from re-examining your investments. This is not your personal income but rather what you do with that income. So, banks, stock portfolios, property, assets, taxes, inheritances and other types of financial growth plans. This is about how to share your money and perhaps also your time. Partnerships, business and/or personal may also be scrutinised and perhaps overhauled. If you are unsure of your immediate circumstances then perhaps aims for familiar and safe financial plans. Perhaps it’s time for a rainy-day fund. Friends and family can always be counted on for advice, but you may be better advised to follow your own counsel or that of a professional.

 

(July 23rd - August 22nd)

Partnerships have a planetary beacon of light aimed directly at them for Leos this month. A ‘partnership’ is described as a formal arrangement between two parties. So, this could be a business contract or a marital one. Either way, it’s time to ensure that communications are clear and the balance of give and take is fair. Perhaps it’s time for that tough conversation. Or maybe you are about to enter into a new and exciting agreement. If so, you are likely to be keen to ensure that all of the sub-clauses are clear in a business contract, or that a pre-nuptial is signed before a personal commitment is made.

 

(August 23rd - September 22nd)

February is about doing things that are good for your health. If you have been putting off getting a health check then now is the time to book it in. Otherwise, you can continue, or start up, some new and enjoyable activities. This is as much about mental health, as it is about physical health. After all Virgo is closely linked to the planet Mercury, the ruler of mental matters. So, you could do something to boost your pleasure at work, such as learning a new skill. Or you could boost your personal life with creative activity. Enjoyable pastimes pursued in February improve your health and wellbeing and set you in good stead for the rest of the year.

 

(September 23rd - October 22nd)

Family politics continues to be a theme in February, particularly in connection to younger family members. However, you should see an improvement with the loving planet Venus in the 4th House of your Solar Chart. As the Moon’s South Node continues to move through your Zodiac Sign, you may let go of your usual mediation of family matters and rely on an honourable female relative to step in. This gives you the opportunity to focus on healing yourself, taking part in pleasurable activities close to home. A creative or artistic project can provide a welcome distraction, even becoming a form of relief therapy.

 

(October 23rd - November 21st)

Sometimes the adjacent Zodiac Signs are in sync as the planets align. So, like Libra, family politics is a theme for Scorpio. In your case, siblings are the focus. This can be a positive reconnection as you share family celebrations that change the order of the family hierarchy. You may make changes to your household, moving neighbourhoods, or visiting siblings. It’s also possible that childhood memories resurface, like genies from a bottle. Happy or otherwise, you need to process your feelings. Writing can be helpful. In some cases, your communication skills could be put to the test as you seek deeper understanding of past sibling relationships.

 

(November 22nd - December 21st)

It’s time for you to decide whether to post or ghost. In other words, are you going to connect with friends, colleagues, family members or disconnect? The stars are aligned for you to do what supports your mental health, and your self-esteem and income. Money does matter and how you earn your dollars can affect your mindset. Do you love yourself and what you do? If so, then all is well. If not, then changes are afoot. Your social media status may change. You may also take off on a planned holiday, giving yourself the time and space for a mental energy reset. February sees you do what is good for you, rather than looking after others.

 

(December 22nd - January 19th)

Does it feel like a personal pressure valve has been released lately? Key planets have shifted giving you the freedom to integrate lessons from the past and move on. Part of your process is assessing your personal worth, not just money-wise but what you really value. Either a budget cutback or an influx of funds could prompt a review of your spending habits. Your rainy-day funds could come in handy. You may also be tempted to splurge on a long-awaited, personal pleasure. Your ruling planet Saturn is in the communication sector of your Solar Chart calling on you to focus your mind on a set plan.

 

(January 20th - February 18th)

Surprise! Do you like surprises? This month sees an unexpected event or news. Pluto, the planet renowned for bringing things to light, has entered your Zodiac Sign ushering in a new era for Aquarius. And it starts with someone or something acting out of the ordinary. You, too, may surprise yourself by stepping out of your comfort zone and trying something completely different. Skydiving, windsurfing, caving and such like are just a few options. The idea is that the time has come for a makeover, for you to connect to others in a new way. If you have ever wanted to reinvent yourself, then now is your time.

 

(February 19th - March 20th)

The lead up to your birthday is likely more lively than usual as planets line up in the social sector of your Solar Chart. As usual, you still need your downtime to recharge your batteries, but you can also step out and connect with link-minded friends and colleagues. As the month progresses, you can dip into your creative side and let your imagination soar. You are dreamer, and dreams are meant to be noted. Dreams that occur when you are asleep are messages from your subconscious. And daytime imaginings are meant to be treasured. As serious Saturn continues to step through your Zodiac Sign you are also being called on to come to terms with the past.
