Free Weekly Horoscope May 20-26 2013
ARIES
You’re a sign with a respectable amount of curiosity. Being the first sign of the zodiac, the origin of things holds particular appeal. In that regard, you have something for which to be grateful these days. We have the last in a series of eclipses on Thursday, this one a lunar eclipse in Sagittarius and therefore your solar ninth House. So ask yourself what peaks your curiosity. This is a great time to explore new avenues of learning as well as other cultures. From a professional or business perspective, you can use this time for marketing and promotions as well as broadcasting. The potential now is limitless.
TAURUS
Thursday’s lunar eclipse will prove a bit of a stretch for you, but that shouldn’t stop a determined bull from plodding forward. First, this eclipse occurs in Sagittarius, the sign of stretching one’s limits and taking risks. The truth be told, yours is a sign of security. You prefer that which is stable and stationary, so you’ll need to adjust your perspective. And, this cycle triggers your eighth House, ruler of that which is private and hidden from view, that which is unseen and undercurrent. You being the tactile sort, will need to probe deeper than the surface, for therein lie the jewels that you seek. Read between the broad brush strokes.
GEMINI
In contrast to your neighbor, the bull, you’ll have little difficulty welcoming the Thursday’s eclipse. Since it occurs in your opposing sign of the archer, which undoubtedly loves to explore, you’ll fit right in. You’re an expert at mingling and striking up good conversation and right now, with your solar seventh House being triggered, the idea of sharing experiences with counterparts becomes most appealing. Encourage partnerships wherever you look, and seek the bounty that occurs when folks of mutual need come together to complement one another.
CANCER
Security oriented signs like yourself and the bull much prefer that which is tried and true and familiar. Being the proverbial “home body”, you’ll opt for the cozy over the foreign. So you’ll need to peek out the window a bit more over the course of the next few weeks. You’ll find fruitful opportunities, especially when it comes to making things happen at the office. Welcome in folks from diverse regions and backgrounds and see what unfolds. This is also a good time to get physical. Your body will thank you, as long as you’re moderate.
LEO
Clap your hands. It’s time applaud the onset of Thursday’s eclipse in the fellow fire sign of Sagittarius. Not only does it represent the possibility for dramatic and colorful potential, but it also falls in your solar fifth House, which is your natural House. So it’s time to explore romantic possibilities as well as anything that tickles your creative funny bone. It’s time to either put yourself on stage or work your craft of directing. You can’t lose, either way. There’s no time like the present to take a risk and go for the proverbial gusto.
VIRGO
As you may know, being the knowledgeable creature that you are, you are ruled by the planet of Mercury. Mercury is said to rule the lower mind, because it dwells in facts, information and data. Your sign is hell-bent on doing things right or not doing them at all. This coming eclipse on Thursday falls in Sagittarius, the sign of the higher mind, ruled by Jupiter. You are therefore encouraged to look at theory in addition to facts, and ponder the moral and philosophical tangents of concepts. These may be applied to your domestic well being as well as to family members. Use the evening hours for contemplation.
LIBRA
It’s time to surf for data and the farther you cast your net, the more successful you will be. Go beyond any semblance of a comfort zone, be it geographical or conceptual. If you have siblings, this is a terrific time for engaging in deep philosophical questions, with a mix of humorous perspectives thrown in for good measure. You might be pleasantly surprised with the issues that surface as a result of any sorts of humorous prodding. Explore your literary skills as well. Delve into writings from different countries and cultures. There are riches for you to uncover.
SCORPIO
You’re about to embark on a financial venture which may be farther reaching than anything you’ve considered in a while. Before you dive in, be sure you’ve not only done all your homework, and that there aren’t other locations that can meet or beat the offers you’ve come up with so far. This can apply to purchases and investments. But if you’re in the process of promoting your own skills, know the appropriate proportions that are reasonable. You could be biting off more than you thought you had to chew so know the demands as well as competition’s strategies.
SAGITTARIUS
Once again, you’re in luck! This Thursday’s lunar eclipse in your sign signals a time of reaping the bounty of seeds that you’ve planted. You’ve cast your net far and wide and certainly haven’t been shy about taking leaps of faith. These bold steps are now coming home to roost in a good way. Look for indications of such fortune to start unfolding in the next couple of weeks, with Thursday being the key to the trigger. Just be sure you aren’t too naïve in the process. Incorporate a healthy sense of realism and practicality to the mix. Enjoy the fun and games.
CAPRICORN
Since you’re one to assess the boundaries and rules of the game, you may run the risk of not being bold enough. Right now your guardian angels are encouraging you to spread yourself a bit farther and they are emboldening you with not only the opportunities but also the faith to catapult you forward. Now is the time to lay the groundwork. Assess your fall back positions and be cognizant of who’s in your corner. You might be pleasantly surprised at the safety nets provided. And remember to sprinkle humor into your daily routine, especially as a good ice breaker.
AQUARIUS
This Thursday’s eclipse is custom made for the likes of you. It’s a perfect time to ratchet up your social game, something that holds tremendous appeal to your naturally convivial spirit. And true to your unconventional form, it’s hard for you to deny an opportunity to inspire others to think differently The cosmos is indeed in your corner on that one. If ever there was a time to broaden the horizons of others, this is it. Challenge people to think differently and to imagine far reaching possibilities. Remember, the universe places you in the presence of particular people for very good reason. And it might just be the perfect time to make an impact on someone who needs a different slant on reality.
PISCES
You’ve got a lot of talent within you, in fact more than you may appreciate. Right now the universe is signaling to you that there’s a big market out there for your skills. It’s just that you tend to live in the center of your own creative cyclone, so it doesn’t always occur to you the breadth of possibilities outside your own being. Allow yourself to be guided by those in the know. Just don’t let someone talk you into something that may be beyond your scope. Explore first, before you make an uninformed decision but realize that a variation on the theme in front of you is probably a wise move on your part.

Free Weekly Horoscope May 13-19 2013
ARIES
The biggest shift this week comes through Mercury’s entrance into one of its signs of rulership, that of Gemini and therefore into your solar third House of communications.
So the question becomes, what are you thinking and how are you going about communicating those all important thoughts. There are so many thoughts rumbling around in that head of yours and the universe would love to see them in written form.
Tackle your eloquence, go about gathering that all important data and don’t forget to cast your local net a little wider..
TAURUS
It’s time to make decisions, especially of the financial variety. Urgency isn’t quite the issue here.
In fact, right now it’s more important that your set your sights on gathering up as much financial data as possible, with the intention of making those decisions in the near future, preferably by month’s end.
You can rest assured that the statistics that are available to you right now are valid, as Mercury is not retrograde and therefore not sending you on a wild goose chase. Just be sure you cover as much ground as possible and keep all reasonable sources of information in mind.
GEMINI
You’ve been in a bit of a reflective mode now for a few weeks and that’s about to come to a screeching halt. As your ruler, Mercury enters your sign on Wednesday, the chance to truly express is yourself is upon you.
Ideas that have been brewing are now ready for prime time viewing and you’re certainly not shy about letting others now just exactly what’s on your mind.
That trademark restlessness of yours is also back in full gear and as a result, you’ll resume your social butterfly role. Just one note of caution: Be careful not to spread yourself too thin.
CANCER
You’re one of the signs that can be perfectly content managing your home turf. After all, yours is considered the “home body” sign of the zodiac, since your ruler, the crab, carries its home on its back.
So it won’t feel too foreign to you to adjust gears inward for the time being, as Mercury enters your solar twelfth House. Seek shelter within. It’s time for reflection, meditation and contemplation.
Use these next weeks to gather your wits about you. Call on those inner voices, those guardian angels, to provide you with the intellectual fodder you’ll need to move forward. Meanwhile, chew on your thoughts but hold off on major decision making for the time being.
LEO
Although you’re not known to be the town gossip, you do enjoy the idea of holding court. Being ruled the sun, the body around which all other planets revolve, you do alright on stage.
These days, with Mercury moving into your solar eleventh House, your friends and colleagues become a major source of input.
It’s time to diversify your social activities and broaden the scope of information to be shared. Toss concepts around with your comrades and enjoy the give and take of ideas.
VIRGO
It is said that variety is the spice of life and nowhere is that more true than as it applies to your career. Options abound for you and it’s time to consider all the possible ramifications.
You may have the pick of the litter when it comes to the types of hats you’re wearing. It might be in your best interest to simply try a few on for size and see how they feel.
Although your preference is to do a job fully, what’s important right now is to skim the surface. You’ll have a chance down the road to fill in the gaps, but for now, keep an open mind and be flexible.
LIBRA
As Mercury moves into his sign of rulership, we’re all going through a shift in the way we communicate and gather our information. For you, the shift is quite remarkable.
You’re coming out of a pattern of deep subconscious mulling and moving into a pattern that speaks of learning and of sharing ideas.
Apparently you’ve garnered a good bit from all those inner rumblings, so now it’s time to let those around you know exactly what you’ve gleaned.
In the process of sharing, you’ll actually heighten your own learning curve, so expectto take notes and stash even more insights away.
SCORPIO
It’s no secret that you like to dwell in the land of secrets. You’re fascinated with subterfuge. Mysteries draw you in and keep you glued to your chair. So this current cycle of Mercury moving into your solar eighth house of the unseen should suit you just fine.
You’ll be as happy as the proverbial pig in slop as you delve into the whole process of gathering up data and figuring out how all the facts fit together. But it might be fair to let those around you know that you’re in no mood to share your findings. A
t least, not yet. You’re still fascinated with and fixated by the privacy necessary for these excavations.
SAGITTARIUS
Mercury will enter your opposing sign of the twins this week, which means it will begin traversing your solar seventh House of counterparts. It will therefore be incumbent upon you to participate in a healthy exchange of ideas.
Let your partners or counterparts lay all their cards out on the table and listen carefully to the information they are sharing. Focus on the data, not the feelings.
In turn, be forthcoming regarding all information others need to act as a spokesperson for you. The slightest detail, no matter how minute it might seem on the surface, may hold relevance. So let the chatter and exchange begin.
CAPRICORN
Being the ambitious sort that you are, it’s normal for you to keep your focus on the job at hand. These days you’ll have plenty of help in this arena.
Coworkers and employees are most eager to share their insights and their findings and are excited about the promise of a healthy exchange of ideas. Welcome the diversity of data available to you from all these various sources.
If you’re needing to add extra personnel to the mix, keep in mind what your current brood is requesting. They may be looking for clones to help them handle the load. This is also a good time to gather information associated with your health, should circumstances warrant.
AQUARIUS
Get ready to be busy, but in a good way. This is the time for you to put a lot of thought into what you consider playful. There are hobbies of yours that have been relegated to the back burner and they’re eager to have their status upgraded.
You can also expect an upswing in the amount of conversation that takes place between you and your children, or anyone you’ve adopted into your fold.
A little gossip could enter into the picture, so be prepared for all sorts of juicy tidbits to surface. Just remember that much is in a state of flux right now with kids so remind them that nothing is permanent.
PISCES
There will be a lot of information streaming in regarding your home and family life. You have a few weeks to sort it all out, but the time to start paying attention is the middle of this week.
Another thing to expect is a lot of comings and goings within the home. You might begin to wonder if someone posted a Grand Central Station on your abode. This will be a refreshing change of pace but may result in a few head spinning moments that could prove a little distracting at times.
Just think of it as inspiration for your creativity! You’ll have many an opportunity to bounce ideas off those closest to you, so invite input.

Free Weekly Horoscope May 6-12 2013
ARIES
It’s time to come to a reckoning as to you true values, priorities and resources. What is it that you value about yourself? What is it that you posses internally that is valuable to the outside world?
How do you want to promote these resources and how do you want to allocate your financial resources. These are the questions you need to ask yourself and begin to answer as the week progresses.
This is all happening thanks to the new moon and solar eclipse in the sign of Taurus and therefore your solar second House of possessions. Look at what you’ve accumulated over time. You have an abundance within that the rest of the world can truly appreciate.
TAURUS
If there was ever a time to make a fresh start, this is your time. The new moon and solar eclipse on Thursday falls in your sign and gives you cosmic permission to declare your personal agenda and make the appropriate inroads.
With your trademark determination and persistence, you’re in a prime position to push forward and gradually see your goals accomplished.
Since slow but sure tends to be your mantra, you’re realistic enough to realize that it will take time for all to come to fruition, but the first step is what matters now, despite obstacles that appear to loom large.
GEMINI
As has been stated many times before, you’re not exactly the shy and retiring type. If someone doesn’t know what’s on your mind, it’s simply because they haven’t had the pleasure of your company for a brief moment.
As odd as it may sound, however, this is not the time to put all your cards out on the table. You’re better off keeping your agenda to yourself and leaving your goals a secret for the time being.
The only entities that need to know what’s up would be your closest supporters, including your guardian angels. It’s what happens when no one is looking that matters most, so don’t be seeking pats on the back. Instead, look for inner assurance.
CANCER
No matter your gender, yours is the sign of mothering. This role requires consistency, compassion, patience and understanding. These are the traits that will be most important to display in the coming weeks, particularly as it applies to your social relationships.
If you are advocating for a social or group oriented issue or event, now is the time to stand your ground and follow through with your set goals and values. The same holds true for any friendships you’re in the process of fostering.
Be aware that Tuesday you’re better off staying the course rather than planting new seeds, as the moon, your ruler, will be void of course a good part of the day.
LEO
There’s a saying that “all that glitters is not gold.” The truth be told, the earth and soil will get you dirty if you play in it, but if a seed is planted in that which is rich and fertile, valuable nuggets can grow from within.
Right now it’s important that you get some dirt under your fingernails, and set aside the importance of external appearances. Digging into your professional goals with a vengeance will serve you greatly as you pay homage to this Thursday’s solar eclipse.
If you must defer to the spotlight to those running the show, so be it. Glory is still yours in the future, when the seeds you’re planting blossom into what they are destined to become.
VIRGO
Being the specialist that you are, your knowledge base holds considerable value. There are those who would love nothing better than to insert a chip into your brain and download every morsel of data stashed within.
It is that font of information that holds value as you welcome this Thursday’s solar eclipse. You can use this cycle to further your knowledge base, in which case, you’re likely adding tangible value to it, or you can use it to impart those morsels to those who hunger for it. The choice is yours and certainly both are an option..
LIBRA
Part of your path as a native of the sign of the scales, is to find common ground. Sometimes that is obvious, but at other times, not so much. It’s the latter that will be your focus over the course of the coming weeks.
It’s time to peel away the layers of the onion and find out what lurks beneath. Needless to say, this process will occur with your trademark sense of diplomacy, yet peel you will.
Find out everything you need to know about that which is hidden below the surface, whether it’s beneath your own core or the reserves of those with whom you currently interact. It’s those private, secret nuggets that you uncover, that will be the key to your success.
SCORPIO
Due to your innate ability to look below the surface of issues and people, there’s no such thing as having the wool pulled over your eyes. You’ll see right through it without question.
With the onset of this Thursday’s solar eclipse falling in your solar seventh House of interpersonal relationships, the time is ripe for laying all the cards out on the table.
They need to be as concrete as possible so all persons can have a tangible sense of the issues at hand. Once this has happened, negotiation will be possible and common ground come be found, but not a minute before. Exercise patience and persistence and you’ll see a happy compromise attained within the coming four weeks.
SAGITTARIUS
As the raspy voiced Rock’n Roll legend of the 1960′s. Bob Dylan, once observed, “you’ve gotta serve somebody.” And since this week’s solar eclipse graces your solar sixth House, your mission, whether or not you choose to accept it, is to decide who to serve and just how you intend to go about doing so.
Whatever your decision might happen to be, know that your mission will not be accomplished overnight. It will be one that requires determination, stamina and endurance, all of which will be duly rewarded in good time.
Be aware that your mission may very well center around your own well being, in which case you’ve likely come to the conclusion that you’ve been putting this off long enough and the time to act is now. Full speed ahead and best of luck!
CAPRICORN
You’ve been assessing your playing field for the last several weeks and are coming to the conclusion as to how best to take over the reigns and take control. In true mountain goat fashion, you’ve come upon your game plan with forethought and a sense of the deliberate.
There is little doubt in your mind as to the structures now in place that will allow your goals to manifest. At this point it’s a matter of putting a name to your project, wrapping it in the appropriate covering and putting it out on stage for the whole world to consume.
So locate that stash of trimmings, slice off the proper size wrapping paper and slap a big fat bow on it, so others can rip it open and revel in the gifts you’re in the process of presenting.
AQUARIUS
This Thursday’s solar eclipse encourages you to build a new foundation for you and your family. Priorities are shifting as are responsibilities.
These changes are by no means guaranteed to happen with ease, but they are, nonetheless, important, if not mandatory. Resistance is essentially futile, so you might as well cry uncle, give in and let the new directions unfold as necessity dictates.
Yes, you’ll have to give a little ground, but the gains are worth it in the end, not only for you, but also for your family and the foundation you’re in the process of reconstructing. Greater adaptability is afforded to you Thursday and Friday, so take full advantage of that breathing room.
PISCES
Your brain is overflowing with imagination. Some would argue that you dwell in the world of the intangible, but you see it as a process of reflecting the beauty and realities of life here on planet earth.
Right now the trick is to bring those visions down to earth so others can view them in the most concrete manner possible. So whether it’s your next masterpiece or other version of creation, put it out there for others to observe, analyze and discuss.
Their interpretations are their own but from your perspective it will be fascinating to hear how they impact those who partake in your offerings.

Free Weekly Horoscope April 29 – May 5 2013
ARIES
One of the greatest strengths of your sign is your capacity to act on the spur of the moment. You revel in the opportunity to take the ball and run with it. You love the idea of a challenge and of taking those first initial steps that allow you to charge ahead.
Now that several planets occupy your neighboring sign of the bull, pace yourself and follow up and follow through with all the seeds you’ve planted in recent weeks.
You have more capacity to exercise patience than you appreciate and now is the time to put your persistence to work. Focus on your greatest assets and keep a close eye on your budget.
TAURUS
Three inner bodies occupy your sign at the open of the week and by Wednesday, Mercury joins the pack.
This translates into the notion that you’re very much in control of the board and can implement your trademark talents of patience and persistence to achieve your goals. So keep your eye firmly on your ability to be consistent and you’ll do just fine.
People will be receptive to your perspective, as long as you continue to push gently but firmly. Guard against being overly stubborn during the midsection of the week, as you have healthy competition in that realm.
GEMINI
Those who know you will attest to the fact that you are one of the most versatile creatures on the planet. Changing directions is rarely the source of stress for you and in fact you tend to thrive on that variety.
However, the mood right now is one of consistency. It’s most important to stay the course, thanks to numerous inner planets in the sign of your neighbor, the bull.
So even though the pace might not b quite as much to your liking as you prefer, look at this time as an opportunity to lay considerable groundwork. In short order these planets will grace your sign and diversity will once again be yours for the taking.
CANCER
You have an innate ability to relate to the concept of being supportive of others. After all, yours is the sign of the nurturer. You realize that by caring for others, there is a reciprocal reward you receive, which is that of fulfillment.
You need to be needed. So at times such as this, when numerous planets occupy your solar eleventh House of friends and colleagues, it is easy for you to lend a helping hand to those in need of your assistance.
This may very well come in the form of emotional support, but can also be expressed in material ways as well. Follow your familiar gut instincts and you’ll be on target.
LEO
You’re in the midst of a standoff of sorts, owing to a collection of cosmic bodies in the mutually fixed sign of Taurus. These days it’s pretty much a matter of who is going to blink first, you or the folks running the show.
Be aware that the mood is more conservative, with a great deal of attention being paid to the bottom line. There isn’t a lot of tolerance for excesses or showmanship.
Your wisest approach is to pay homage to the pragmatic approach being implemented. In so doing, you’ll be seen as a humble team player, something which will be recalled for posterity sake.
VIRGO
Being ruled by the intellectually minded planet of Mercury, curiosity comes naturally to you. Learning new things is a real pleasure.
Once you’ve stumbled upon new information, you absorb it like a sponge and enjoy sharing your finds with anyone within earshot. So the current planetary lineup suits you quite nicely, since your ninth House of higher learning is being triggered.
Even if you’re not technically in school, you very likely feel as though you’re in the midst of a large learning curve. Take good notes, as much of what you’re learning is very practical and will hold value for some time to come.
LIBRA
There’s no doubt that your passionate nature is on the upswing. You’re almost helpless when it comes to exuding that charm and the magnetism that inevitably arises from it.
Just be aware that although you’re making a statement without realizing it, others may take their time responding. The same holds true for those who’d like to invite you into their financial fold. So just be patient.
Focus attention on such matters as taxes, insurance and loans. This is a good time to slowly but surely put one foot in front of the other, with the understanding that persistence pays off.
SCORPIO
You’re in a good position to make inroads into personal relationships. It’s as if others are inviting you to become more intimately involved in their lives, something that has been slow but sure to manifest.
This can be a symbol of trust you’ve managed to gain over periods of time. Expect an acceleration of open communication as of Wednesday. T
his is also a good time to invite input and pursue legal or contractual issues, should the situation warrant. Recognize that the folks on the other side of the table are not only conservative, but also extremely patient.
SAGITTARIUS
You’re ready to get the job done, whatever that may entail. Normally you’re not one for keeping your feet on the ground. Taking a risk or flying by the seat of your pants generally speaks more of your style.
But for the moment, the more concrete and measured tempo seems to fit the bill. By Wednesday you’re likely to have a mental game plan and find co-workers gradually sharing their sense of how their ideas can complement your own.
Give your imagination a whirl over the weekend. You’ve got some creative ways of expressing things that can impact family members.
CAPRICORN
You’re the happiest when you not only know the game plan but also when you’re free to take over the reigns and run with it. So you’ll take pleasure in seeing the week unfold, as you are able to manage the pragmatic issues that surround you.
The universe is providing you with a comfortable stage, even thought the circumstances may seem a bit heavy from time to time.
But you’re a tough cookie and know how to handle responsibilities that are laid out for you to shoulder. Monday and Tuesday offer the most support, with the Moon in your sign, so expect to feel at home in your skin.
AQUARIUS
This may be a bit of a trying time, domestically speaking. As much as you’d like to think you can pursue your own eclectic goals, circumstances at home may call for an entirely different perspective.
The practical and concrete issues of the day take precedence over your innovative views and what may seem to others like ideologies. Patience and compassion will be the order of the day. Have faith in the knowledge that the mood will soon shift.
Wednesday and Thursday allow you a greater sense of comfort, what with the Moon traversing your sign those two days. Lay low early in the week and then move forward with personal agendas the latter half.
PISCES
Your social sphere continues to command your attention and focus. There’s little doubt as to your calling at present. It is being laid out in front of you as friends and colleagues prove to be a constant reminder.
At times you may feel a sense of cumulative responsibility, and at the same time are well equipped to keep lines of communication wide open, especially from Wednesday forward.
Once the Moon occupies your sign on Friday and Saturday, your creative visions become clearer, and your ability to emphasize heightens.

Free Weekly Horoscope April 22 – 28 2013
ARIES
The lunar eclipse in Scorpio this Thursday urges you to look underneath the surface. You can start with your subconscious mind and events in your life that point to its messages.
When dealing with others, pay attention to subtle clues such as body language and what is being said without coming right out and saying it. The point is not to be suspicious but rather observant.
You’ll learn all you need to know by simply paying attention to these factors. Share time with others as much as possible and take time to explore over the weekend.
TAURUS
The issues surrounding those in your immediate presence carry much greater significance than those of your own. Remember that just because the volcano appears quiet, there may still be rumblings under the surface.
Diplomatically probe the emotional core of others and demonstrate your capacity for empathy and understanding. Telegraph the message that you can be trusted with secrets, no matter how intense.
Work routines shift on a dime Tuesday and Wednesday. Watch the emotional roller coaster the remainder of the week.
GEMINI
A great use of this week’s lunar eclipse on Thursday is to probe medical issues. Gather as much information as humanly possible. That is one easy task for you, since you’re an expert at processing data.
But be sure to look way beyond the surface. What you need to know is lurking within the cracks. Pretend you’re a detective and go about projects with determination and relentlessness. The answers you’re seeking are within reach, so enjoy the challenge.
CANCER
Remember that adage of all work and no play? Well it’s time to play and to do it with as much intensity as you can muster. If you have no burning passion at the moment, such as a hobby, then perhaps there’s a major project staring you in the face.
The mood these days is that of determination. Very little will stand in the way of your making things happen. And even if something does, you’ll run right over it.
Loved ones need to know how deeply you feel. They may not show it on the surface, but they’ll hear you.
LEO
Your sign is said to be one of stage presence. The spotlight becomes you and you know what to do when you’re in it. However, there are times when you need less visibility and this is one of them.
Use this week’s lunar eclipse to do some digging at home. That might include puttering around in the basement or getting to the bottom of deep issues within your family circle.
Either way, it’s time to probe those depths. It may not be all that pretty, but it sure will be therapeutic.
VIRGO
There’s data to comb through and mysteries to be solved. It happens to be your job to sort through the morass and surface with hard sought gems.
You can also use this week’s lunar eclipse to explore the local haunts. There’s a good chance that you’ll locate interesting finds in places you didn’t even know existed.
Just a little snooping on your part results in your unearthing locals you’ll want to revisit. This is also a great time to comb through personal paperwork. Mysteries resolve themselves as a result.
LIBRA
This week’s lunar eclipse finds you sorting through financial matters. It’s important that you read all the fine print because nothing is obvious with just a superficial glance.
You’ll have to use persistence and perseverance to unearth the information you seek. But once you find that nugget, you will have overcome a major hurdle.
When making purchases, ask as many questions as possible. In fact, you’d do well to ask questions that aren’t normal for the average consumer.
SCORPIO
Since the lunar eclipse falls in your sign, this week is all about you. Whether you realize it or not, you have more inner strength than you appreciate.
It’s time to dig down into the depths of your being and become one with that reserve you’ve stashed away for times like this.
You’re quite proficient at offering up advice to others so you’d do well to heed your own words. If there’s something stuck in your craw, deal with it directly and move on, otherwise you’re letting the past control you.
SAGITTARIUS
As you well know, adventure becomes you. And nothing says adventure like a road trip. The best place for you to go right now is a place that offers you isolation and seclusion.
Your guardian angels are crying out for recognition because they have important messages to convey. They’ve been piling up for a while now and it’s time for you to take a listen.
If you find an occasion to be of help to those less fortunate than yourself, take full advantage. Those circumstances can also help you make resolutions.
CAPRICORN
It’s time to get to the heart of the matter, particularly as it involves close personal friends and colleagues.
There are things that have been brewing and it feels as though someone may just explode if they aren’t able to talk things out with you.
You have license to ask questions and cut to the core. Realize that your insights might truly help someone clear the air as a result of your guidance. Step back over the weekend and give yourself time to regroup.
AQUARIUS
The powers that be are working on something that has been in the works for a while. They may have deliberately kept it under wraps and have been waiting for the most strategic moment to unveil their plans.
No poking or prodding on your part will entice them to come clean, so just be prepared for the big reveal when the moment is right. Meanwhile, appreciate the fact that you’ve got a lot of potential brewing, not to mention resources at your disposal. Make the most of them. They are your hidden ammunition.
PISCES
It has been said that we learn something new every day and nothing could be truer, except that this applies to much of this entire week, especially Thursday, due to the lunar eclipse.
If there’s something you’ve been longing to study, now is the time to take the leap. Or you can use this cycle to work from the other end and teach others, based on all that innate talent that’s oozing out of you.
Throw your hat in the ring. There are people from all walks of life who share your interests and you’ll find mutual benefit, even if the rewards don’t appear obvious at first glance.

Free Weekly Horoscope April 15 – 21 2013
ARIES
Keep your ears peeled for helpful information as the week opens. Venus moves into Taurus and therefore your solar second House on Monday, bringing a promising note to your finances.
You’ll benefit from taking a pragmatic, slow but sure approach to investment and expenditures. Shift your focus to things of a domestic nature Tuesday and Wednesday.
Don’t be surprised if you feel an additional surge of energy during the late evening hours. This only adds to the boundless spirit you’ve been enjoying the last several weeks since Mars enters your sign.
Make the most of it because he’ll soon be departing and heading into the sign of the bull. Take the stage or take control Thursday and Friday. Get back into a routine over the weekend.
TAURUS
With so many planets moving through Aries, you might feel like you’re in a state of suspended animation. You feel as though you’re on hold or you might be wrapping up loose ends.
Rest assured that not only is this is as it should be, but also remind yourself that “this too shall pass.” Eventually these inner planets will make their way into your sign, starting with Venus on Monday, followed by the Sun on Friday and Mars on Saturday.
And since yours is a slow but sure sign, you’ll see the shift come gradually. Fall back on your trademark patience and you’ll do just fine. Venus in your sign gives you the ability to attract, so charm away.
Take care of economics on Monday, communications on Tuesday and Wednesday, stay closer to home Thursday and Friday and then celebrate over the weekend.
GEMINI
You’ve never been one to let the grass grow under your feet. Being out and about suits you just fine. The more people with whom you can commune, the better you like it.
Therefore, you should have little to complain about these days. You’ll continue to have quite the social life this week so expect that calendar to fill up quickly if it hasn’t already.
As of Monday you’ll have added blessings as Venus enters your solar twelfth House. Should you need a little added protection from your guardian angels, they’re standing by watchfully.
They’ll help you out with just the right people to back you up and if you’re a little tight on money, a safety net will be provided.
Starting Saturday you might feel the desire to ratchet down the socializing as Mars joins Venus in Taurus. Start pacing yourself.
CANCER
Start the week slowly. If you don’t feel like being out among the masses, don’t beat yourself up. The Moon will be in your solar twelfth House on Monday, so you’re probably better off remaining invisible.
That won’t last very long. By Tuesday the Moon will be nestled in your sign, having arrived there the night before. You’ll feel more like yourself then as well as Wednesday. There will be no doubt who’s in control.
The only way you’ll allow anyone else to call the shots is if they make it obvious that they’re out to protect you. Thursday and Friday are great for tackling your financial picture.
Friends will make it obvious that they have your back, thanks to Venus entering your solar 11th House on Monday, followed up by Mars on Saturday. Focus on communications over the weekend. You have much to say.
LEO
You must have done something noteworthy in the recent past as evidenced by accolades that start pouring in at the start of the week. From an outsider’s perspective, it looks like you’ve hung the Moon.
The folks pulling the strings seem to be very impressed with you, not to mention appreciative. You have Venus in your tenth House to thank, from a cosmic perspective.
But you might not be ready to show your face until later in the week. The Moon in your solar twelfth House from late Monday through Wednesday suggests that you’d rather be a loner.
But by Thursday you’ll be ready to make another grand entrance as the Moon graces your sign, staying there through Friday. Start a plan of attack on the professional front over the weekend. You’ve got a busy few weeks ahead and this is a good time to prepare.
VIRGO
You’ll be in high demand the early portion of the week, so be prepared to make an impact. The folks running the show will be open to your input on Monday.
And you’ll start to see people at a distance showing their appreciation for your talents and contributions. Tuesday and Wednesday are great for reaching out to friends and colleagues.
By week’s end you’ll be ready to shift gears as the Moon keeps you tucked away behind the scenes. Use this time to take a deep breath. This is all in preparation for an extremely active weekend as reflected by the Moon’s presence in your sign.
Start setting your sites on people and places at a distance. You may be traveling in May and there’s no time like the present to get yourself motivated in that general direction.
LIBRA
You’re moving into a phase now in which you may have to start reading between the lines. That which is below the surface holds a lot more potential and substance than what you can see concretely.
This cycle begins on Monday and becomes even more apparent by the weekend. In fact by Saturday you may start to feel as though you could easily put on your best detective gear.
The subtleties start speaking to you loud and clear, so give them plenty of credence. Not only that, but your passionate instincts are also intensifying. You’re sending out stronger signals, whether you realize it or not.
You’ll be making a good impression at the workplace at the start of the week and friends are right by your side. Expect a lower profile over the weekend.
SCORPIO
When you send out signals that you’re attracted to someone, it’s pretty hard for the other person to resist. You just have this way about you that makes people want to know what’s behind the allure on the surface.
It’s like they can’t help but want to unravel the mystery. So don’t be surprised if you’re starting to get a good response from the folks around you.
This process begins on Monday as Venus makes her way into your seventh House of interpersonal affairs and becomes strengthened when Mars joins in over the weekend.
Meanwhile, set your sites afar early in the week. Take credit for your accomplishments Thursday and Friday and then expect an active weekend of socializing. More relationships unfold as a result of all this activity.
SAGITTARIUS
Reaching across the table will be the dominant theme for this week. In order for you to get what you want, you’ll have to include others in the mix.
That will already be apparent to you early on. In fact, Monday is a great day for negotiating. You’ll get a clear picture of how others feel, not to mention options open to you.
If need be, let the information you gather on Monday sink in over the course of Tuesday and Wednesday. You may find yourself in a learning mode by week’s end but it feels more like a new form of adventure to you.
Work maintains a consistent pace and co-workers are most considerate. Your steady contributions haven’t gone unnoticed and your colleagues are the first to point that out. Your visibility heightens over the weekend, so be aware of who’s watching.
CAPRICORN
Rumor has it that you’re all about business. True to the mountain goat, you’re all about scaling heights. But just because you hang with the people of influence, that doesn’t mean you lack a personal life.
Far from it. It’s just that those who know you out in the business world are so accustomed to seeing you being responsible, that it doesn’t dawn on them that you have a life outside the office.
And these days it’s important to focus on that side of your being. The universe supports you by bringing Venus into your solar fifth House of the stage and celebration Monday, followed by Mars on Saturday.
So be ready to show those you love how truly important they are to you. Shower them with affection and adoration. This entire week is all about bringing others into your fold.
AQUARIUS
You tend to speak a slightly different language than the average person on the street. This is due to the fact that your interests tend to be in a particular niche.
The information that resides in your brain is well ensconced, making it a challenge to shift gears. But at times you must make that shift to accommodate the people closest to you.
So give yourself permission to pull your head out of the data stream and move it into a more tactile mode. This practice will serve you well over the coming weeks but rest assured you don’t have to live there for long.
Much of this shift starts taking place Tuesday and Wednesday. Fall back on others for support Thursday and Friday and then let your subconscious do the job over the weekend.
PISCES
Some would argue that you live in a world of fantasy. There is some truth to that and you’re not alone in that imaginary world. However there are occasions in which you need to bring those visions down to earth and give them concrete expression.
Now is the time to take that leap. You’ll have little difficulty finding the means to communicate what your imagination has conjured up. In fact, all the necessary tools are there for the taking.
Focus on domestic issues Monday and then move into your creative side Tuesday and Wednesday. Give yourself permission to receive accolades for your work Thursday and Friday.
Reserve the weekend for sharing all you’ve experienced during the course of the week. Partners are eager for an update.

Free Weekly Horoscope April 8 – 14 2013
ARIES
There are some things that can only be done once. For example, you can only meet someone new once and after that, the deed is done. From there, it’s a matter of following up.
This week you have the opportunity to start something new, thanks to the new moon in your sign on Wednesday. Get your game plan in motion and remind yourself that this is an ideal time to get a fresh start.
But if you are going to plant that seed, be sure you have every intention of nurturing it once it has been placed in fertile soil. You rams are great at initiating, but it’s the follow through where you tend to be the weakest. Search your soul for enthusiasm and let that spark be your guide.
You have Monday through Wednesday to get your agenda firmly planted in your mind. Work with the tactile issues Thursday and Friday. A new mental plan of attack will greet you Saturday as Mercury enters your sign. Venture about in your local arena over the weekend.
TAURUS
This is the time to ask yourself what you can do to resolve issues that you’ve been putting off. Let’s face it. You are an expect at procrastination but also on the ability to persist when you want something badly enough.
Make a commitment to yourself and then to your guardian angels, that you’re ready to tackle a goal that you undoubtedly want to attain. Have a pow wow with your guides and let them know you might need an extra push, should you fall back into old patterns of inertia.
Be confident that they’ll be there to force your hand should you opt for the wait and see attitude. The universe is giving you Monday through Wednesday to formulate that strategy, with Wednesday being key to making major strides.
Thursday and Friday will be the easy part of keeping your stride, thanks to the moon in your sign. Disperse your resources over the weekend and defend your right to talk to yourself.
GEMINI
New connections are in the offing and you’re more than ready to welcome said comrades into the fold. They will serve a useful purpose, one of which might be to light a spark that no one else seems to have the guts or tools to make happen.
Look to them for their leadership skills and savvy with the intention of becoming a worthy participant. Take note, because these tactics you’ll be learning will come in handy down the road when you’re asked to shoulder similar responsibilities.
You can happily participate in a game of competition, even if you’re competing with some of your closest friends. This will only serve to bring you closer as you get to know each other to the core.
Lay low Thursday and Friday and take time to regroup. You’ll be back with renewed energy over the weekend as the moon makes its way into your sign.
CANCER
You’ve been honing different skills in the past weeks, in anticipation of a new title or project. The time is now for those new goals to be hoisted upon you and you’re ready to present yourself to the powers that be.
Rest assured that even if they are made of a different sort of fabric than your own, you can still find common ground. If you’re picking up on a somewhat blustery vibe, just take it with a grain of salt.
It’s probably showmanship in a one-time attempt to throw you off your game. As long as you don’t flinch, you’ll pass the test and won’t see similar tactics utilized again in the near future.
Your colleagues gladly back you up Thursday and Friday, should you falter. Take a back seat over the weekend. You have cosmic permission to retreat to your familiar shell.
LEO
Tooting your own horn is of utmost importance and especially now. It’s important for folks to know who you are and the impact that you can make on them. Sometimes you might wonder if you’ve gone too far and if that’s your concern, shelve it.
In fact, if anything, you need to carve out a larger swath and now is the time to make that happen. There is fertile territory out there for you to conquer and the potential recipients of your talents are eager to bask in the glow of your efforts.
Think of your goals as tools that will further educate others, and in turn, yourself. Once you start to quench that thirst, the desire for even more knowledge will be endless.
Set the wheels in motion early in the week and join decision makers Thursday and Friday. Colleagues enter the picture over the weekend and contribute fresh ideas for your consideration.
.
VIRGO
There are times when a direct approach just doesn’t seem to have an impact and this is one of those times. Someone in your midst needs to get a message that you’re attempting to convey, but if you come out and tell them, they’re likely to resist, just like a child being told what to do.
So instead, the indirect approach might be your most effective option. You may have to pretend that you don’t notice something or that you’re not being impressed by their behavior.
This reverse psychology seems a little under the table, but right now it’s important that you give someone another attempt to prove themselves.
In a strange way, you’re actually taking control although it doesn’t appear to be the case on the surface. Branch out later in the week and demonstrate your authority over the weekend.
LIBRA
You’re well aware that first impressions count. After all, even though you know that we can’t become someone else to please another nor should we be paranoid about what other people think or believe, you do want to please others because you want to share who you are and what you do with those around you.
You’ve been taking notes from experts on the best way to approach a given situation and now the ball is in your court. It’s time to put these new skills to work. You have Monday and Tuesday to prepare you, much like a dress rehearsal.
Wednesday will be the true test of all this recent practice. Rest assured that this is a fine time to initiate a new relationship or submit a proposal.
Have the confidence that it will work, even if you’re up against worthy competition. Let your gut guide you at week’s end and then head for parts unknown over the weekend.
SCORPIO
Being one of the fixed signs, it is your nature to stay the course. You could easily argue that you’re a fan of the motto, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
And sometimes even if it is a little broken, you might not always muster the enthusiasm to fix it. But now is a different time. The new moon on Wednesday falls in your solar sixth house, which is not just work, service and health, but to some extent also represents your routines, or how you get your work done.
And since the new moon is in Aries, this is a great time to usher in new traditions. So if you’re ready to begin a whole new project or tackle your health from a different angle, take confidence in knowing that the cosmic forces are there to back you up.
Lean on others Wednesday and Thursday and then drill ideas into your subconscious over the weekend.
SAGITTARIUS
If you live north of equator, you’re tempted to call it spring fever. If you live south, you could call it fall’s festivities. The “it” is that feeling of celebration. And who better to celebrate than the expert in playfulness?
Yes, that’s you. The Archer. The outdoors is calling and the sun is yours to bask in. Wednesday’s new moon in your solar fifth house brings passions to the forefront, many of which were brewing in the background Monday and Tuesday.
Express them with all your trademark gusto. Shower what and who you love with attention. You’re the one setting the stage to create a memorable landscape.
The natural order comes into play Thursday and Friday with Friday being favorable for reevaluating finances. The weekend brings a pleasant assortment of shared views.
CAPRICORN
You of all signs appreciate the importance of a good foundation. After all, you’re the sign ruled by Saturn which in turn rules the skeletal system. So you know if the skeletal system is strong or if the girders of a plan are strong and well entrenched, you have a good starting point.
This is where you are now. Focus on building a strong foundation. This could begin at home or within a familiar circle. The vision has been brewing for several weeks now.
Thankfully the cosmos is now rewarding you with Wednesday’s new moon in Aries and your fourth house, allowing you the time to build a new home of sorts. Add your creative touch at week’s end and then tend to that varied check list Saturday and Sunday.
AQUARIUS
If someone asked you if you’d like to attend a party at which the only rule is that you’re encouraged to participate in an open minded sharing of ideas, the chances are you’d accept the invitation.
So, logic would suggest that you would therefore appreciate the potential brought to you by this Wednesday’s new moon in Aries. All the above outlined parameters are being put in place on Monday and Tuesday for this grand event to start unfolding.
You are guaranteed to be participating in some fine intellectual dining in the days and weeks ahead. Invite siblings along, if that is an option.
Enjoy every morsel. Settle back home Thursday and Friday. Another round of entertainment is on the docket for the weekend.
PISCES
You can appreciate the notion that in order to create the next masterpiece, it helps to utilize sharp tools. Sometimes you have to start with brand new tools since old ones have simply seen their day.
The cosmos wants you to know that now is the time to start afresh with those new tools. They’re more up to date and therefore give you an enhanced competitive edge. If you want to keep the older tools in your back pocket for an occasional fallback position, that’s fine.
Your emotional attachment may be a bit too strong right now to set them out to pasture. But embrace the enthusiasm for this new route, and look forward to the resulting goodies emerging from this new process.
The concepts really take root after Wednesday’s new moon. Some isolation might be preferred over the weekend.

Free Weekly Horoscope April 1 – 7 2013
ARIES
The theme for you this week is exposure. Get out and about as much as humanly possible all the way through Friday. Even if you tried to be invisible or incognito, the universe would see to it that you be well noticed.
And since you’ve never been the shy and retiring type, this week’s assignment should work out very well. You’ve laid out well defined objectives that encompasses much more than this week.
But you’ve planted some very promising seeds and this week is one of many steps that will allow you to make headway towards those goals. Expect more professional recognition Tuesday and Wednesday, especially Tuesday.
Make time for friends and colleagues Thursday and Friday. By the weekend the texture will feel much different since that is when you will be encouraged to get some down time, but not a minute before.
TAURUS
Joining forces with others is critical right now. There’s no reason for you to go things alone. You need other people to play a strong role in your life and vice versa.
Allow your inner voices to guide you during this process, especially early in the week. Just because you don’t get concrete confirmation on something you sense, doesn’t mean you’re off base.
By the Tuesday and Wednesday you’ll have a strong sense of who’s really in your corner. The true test will be the way people share their philosophies.
That will tell you right off the bat, everything you need in order to get confirmation that they’re going to be there in the long haul.
Expect a slightly more detached feel to take over toward week’s end, but know that Thursday and Friday will allow for good professional exposure.
The weekend couldn’t be more fitting for spending time with close friends. You’ll feel a strong connection and can empathize with one another.
GEMINI
There are so many things on your plate these days that even you are amazed at how much juggling there is to be done, and that’s coming from someone who practically juggles for a living.
Even if you wanted a moment to just twiddle your thumbs, the universe would laugh at you and continue to throw even more activities into the mix. Luckily you’re not going this alone.
You have close friends and colleagues who are very much in the thick of things along side of you. You’ve got listening ears for input and feedback and it’s important that you take full advantage of them.
Monday could be a little tricky in this regard, as folks seem to be consumed with their own agendas. But Tuesday and Wednesday you should see obvious signs of people contributing to you.
Spread out a bit farther toward the end of the week and listen to enlightening ideas. Double duty is probably going to be required over the weekend.
If you could clone yourself, you’d probably be in three places at one time, so go with what feeds you emotionally.
CANCER
The most important thing for you to do right now is have a singularity of focus. It may very well be that it’s a particular theme or project on which you need to focus.
Whatever that one thing is, attack it with a vengeance. If you allow yourself to get distracted by what could have been or what you think might happen, you’ll derail yourself and most of the progress that you’ve made in the last several weeks.
So don’t get too emotionally entangled in the daily processes. This will only slow you down and distract you from the job at hand. Bring other people into the fold, especially if you need an understanding shoulder.
Tuesday and Wednesday are great for bouncing ideas off others and getting a grounded perspective that you feel you don’t quite have right now.
You’ll have some pretty creative people around you with more talent than meets the eye, particularly Thursday and Friday, so be sure to turn over every possible stone to take a good look at the underbelly.
By the weekend you’ll feel as though you’re absorbing the wisdom received throughout the past week. Give yourself time to let the impressions sink in and become a part of you.
LEO
You’re becoming quite familiar with the notion that you learn something new every day. That has been the theme lately and you might as well get used to it because it’s going to be your mantra for the foreseeable future.
Luckily, a lot of pieces seem to be coming together right now. The circumstances that you need to round you out are at your fingertips, not to mention the people who can make things happen because they complement you and your endeavors.
They may even encourage you to stretch the edge of the envelope a bit. And that’s all well and good. They see potential in you that you don’t quite appreciate, perhaps because you’re just too close to the center of the cyclone.
So trust that the universe has put the right people in your path and appreciate their support.
Get down to the finer points early in the week. If you need someone to fall back on, they’ll be there Thursday and Friday. Follow your psychic impressions over the weekend.
VIRGO
You have a pretty set system of how you operate. Once you settle on what you know works most efficiently, you’re not apt to change your processes.
It’s not that you’re stubborn. You just know shortcuts and like to implement them whenever possible.
The funny part about the celestial influences right now is that you’re being shown options that can serve as an alternative to the groove that you’re in.
Once these are adopted, you’ll be able to accomplish your tasks with even greater creativity and a whole new slant, to boot.
So even if you have to veer off course for the time being, the side-trip will do you a world of good. Let this theme permeate this entire week. Try it on for size to see how it fits. If you need a second opinion, hold off until the weekend before inviting another perspective into the mix.
Meanwhile, you’ll be most creative and productive.
LIBRA
As you continue with your philosophy of “share and share alike,” keep in mind the importance of that happy balance between pleasing the other person at the same time that you please yourself.
With your tendency to bend and compromise to keep the other side happy, you may set aside your own needs and thereby do yourself a disservice.
Your ruler, Venus, remains in your opposing sign of self-motivated Aries for the next few weeks, so it’s only fair that both sides of the equation be allowed equal time for their own agenda.
Give yourself permission to go with the impulses that arise, now that so many planets still reside in the spur of the moment sign of the Ram.
Self-expression will be key on Monday. The home front will call your name Tuesday and Wednesday. Add a touch of the romantic and creative late in the week. Your “to-do” list beckons over the weekend.
SCORPIO
You are the sign that is most efficient at bringing out the strengths of others. Once you zero in on your agenda, you don’t tend to veer from it until you’re convinced that you’ve done all you can to make your goals a reality.
Even at that, you may not give up, in the belief that there may be one stone that you’ve left unturned.
Now that your co-ruler, Mars, is happily immersed in Aries, the sign at 150 degrees from your own, it’s fitting that you make adjustments to your modus operandi.
The cosmos will not fall apart if you change direction, slightly. So give a good listen to the spontaneous urges that are apt to arise the next several weeks, with the understanding that they may accomplish what your routine hasn’t managed to effect.
Give your financial picture a glance on Monday. Broaden your stomping grounds Tuesday and Wednesday and then head back home at week’s end. Celebration is in order over the weekend.
SAGITTARIUS
Being the gutsy soul that you are, grabbing the reigns and steering your own ship comes naturally to you. And if there happens to be a risk involved, you’re even more on board.
So you should have no problem welcoming in the cosmic forecast for the week ahead. The stage is set for playfulness, celebrating life and a respectable quantity of gambling opportunities as well.
Let the fun begin. If children are a part of your life, they will gladly contribute to the festivities. If not, summon up the proverbial inner child and take it for a ride.
You’ll have a clear vision of your direction on Monday, thanks to the Moon’s occupation in your sign. Tuesday and Wednesday offer you the opportunity to evaluate the resources at your disposal that will enable you to continue with the agenda already laid out.
Thursday and Friday take you to localized stomping grounds where you encounter folks familiar to you Head back home for a breather over the weekend.
CAPRICORN
Being a Saturn-ruled sign, you operate best when you have a game plan all set. Guidelines and structure are your friend. As a result, when things are up in the air, you feel a upended.
You much prefer to have your feet firmly planted on the ground, similar to the creature associated with your sign, the mountain goat.
For this reason, the weeks ahead could prove a bit challenging, because not much is set in stone right now. There’s a parade of planets moving through the impulsive sign of Aries, and Aries abhors anything that even hints at the notion of rules and regulations.
You’ll need to convince yourself that it’s perfectly okay if there are things not quite glued down just yet. Nothing is permanent and neither is the current texture of the cosmos.
As soon as some of these planets make their way into the fellow earth sign of Taurus in mid to late April. you’ll be able to breathe easier.
You’ll find Tuesday and Wednesday most agreeable as the moon occupies your sign. Check your budget late in the week and then expect impressions to impact you over the weekend.
AQUARIUS
If there’s one element that complements your own, it’s fire. Contrary to popular belief, although you are the sign of the water bearer, you are actually an air sign, which is mental, analytical and objective.
In order for air to move, it takes either wind or heat, coming in the form of fire. Right now, with numerous planets in Aries, you’re feeling very motivated to stoke your fact finding brain.
Information just plants itself at your feet and it’s up to you and your intuitive mind to appreciate the synchronicity of events and take note of the immediacy of the information to which you are now privy.
Monday’s moon keeps you connected with your wide circle of buddies. Tuesday and Wednesday are best spent in a less visible environment.
It’s time to seek shelter and dispose of any lingering doubts. Thursday and Friday will be the highlight of your week, what with the Moon now occupying your sign. Look to economic issues over the weekend.
PISCES
Yours is a sign that can be perfectly content going with the proverbial flow. Being a mutable sign, you’re pleasantly adaptable, versatile and flexible. And being of the element of water, you feel down to the core of your being.
It could be argued that you are the most sensitive of all the signs of the zodiac. Right now, with a cluster of planets in the neighboring sign of the ram, you’re feeling very aware of the busy nature of the energy in the ethers.
There is a true sense of urgency, which might not necessarily compute when compared with your easy going nature.
So it might just be your job to remind the folks who are in a hurry, that they could be missing something important if they are bent on responding to every momentary impulse that comes along.
Do what you do best, which is to act as a mirror to others. They will appreciate the reminder to slow down and relax. Keep a high profile for yourself until Thursday, at which time you, too, need to slow down your pace.
You’ll be back in your essence over the weekend as the moon makes its way into your sign.

Free Weekly Horoscope March 25 – 30 2013
ARIES
Now that the parade of planets has shifted from Pisces to Aries, you’re very much in the driver’s seat. And that couldn’t please you more, being the sign that loves to be at the head of whatever you choose to take on.
Since the planet of Uranus is in the mix of this stellium, the cosmos is giving you permission to mix things up to your heart’s desire. It’s time to try new and different things on for size.
Look at life from a totally different perspective than in times past. Be sure that if you are going to venture into new directions, that you have every intention of following up and following through.
Two areas of precaution should be noted. Be careful not to act out of pure rebellion and watch for a tendency to be accident prone, especially during the full moon on Wednesday. Focus on routines Monday.
Solicit feedback Tuesday and Wednesday. Let your subconscious mind speak to you Thursday and Friday and then get ready for adventure over the weekend.
TAURUS
Your sign is what is known as an earth sign, which means that you tend to take your cues from the practical, tactile world. If you can touch it, feel it or measure it, you know what you’re dealing with is real.
Otherwise, you tend to dismiss the messages. Right now it’s important that you put those leanings aside and allow impressions to impact on you. The astrological reason for this lies in the fact that numerous planets have moved from Pisces into Aries and they therefore occupy your solar twelfth House.
This portion of the chart addresses one’s inner voices, your guardian angels. So you’re not likely to find input from the sources upon which you typically rely. Instead, you need to trust those other senses which may be difficult to quantify.
Give romance greater attention at the start of the week. Get back into your routine Tuesday and Wednesday. Be careful not to let your routines get too out of whack during Wednesday’s full moon.
Share your inner most feelings with those who understand you Thursday and Friday. Expect passions to escalate over the weekend.
GEMINI
Now that there is a cluster of planets in the sign of Aries, you’re in a good place for focusing on your social life. If you have a political bone in your body, this is a fine time to involve yourself in any causes that suit your fancy.
If you’re already invested in any sort of group activities, it’s time to shake things up. Make suggestions that motivate your colleagues to move in different directions. Feel free to offer up a whole new set of options.
Put your creative and innovative mind to work and let loose. You have nothing to loose and might be pleasantly surprised by the willingness of others to take your ideas into consideration.
Focus on the home front on Monday. Put your creative instincts to work Tuesday and especially during Wednesday’s full moon. Thursday will be excellent for long term thinking and planning, especially as it pertains to your career.
Dig in to challenges late in the week and then plan on playing with those closest to you over the weekend.
CANCER
These next few weeks will likely prove to be a bit of a challenge to you, compliments of several planets in the cardinal sign of Aries. Why the challenge, you ask? The reason is quite simple.
Your sign and Aries are not the most compatible of signs. Aries is direct and to the point and takes no prisoners. It doesn’t beat around the bush. Aries are passionate but they aren’t as emotionally sensitive and delicate as you.
So you might not feel as though folks are indulging in the warm fuzzies that are your preference. In fact, at times, you may feel as though the energy is a bit abrupt and possibly a little caustic.
Don’t be surprised if you’re being encouraged to act on a moment’s notice rather than consider the historical perspective of your situations. Get your facts together Monday. Revert back to the home Tuesday.
Wednesday’s full moon could present a challenge when keeping relationships on an even keel. Romance is in the air Thursday and Friday. The weekend brings productive energy into the picture.
LEO
Cosmically speaking you should be in hog heaven right now, thanks to several planets in the mutual fire sign of Aries.
Since these planets fall in your solar ninth House, you’re well positioned to set your sites on places significantly distant from your home turf. So if you’re in the mood to plan a trip or take one, now is the time to get that rolling.
Other ways of putting this energy to work would be to focus on marketing and promotions. Break existing molds and try new approaches on for size. You can also benefit from delving into new areas of learning.
This doesn’t mean getting a new degree but maybe taking some classes in areas vastly different from your prior background. Take a look at your budget early in the week. Gather data Tuesday and expect surprise information on Wednesday.
The home front beckons the latter portion of the week and then the weekend assures playfulness and celebration.
VIRGO
Since Aries is the sign of planting new seeds, we must all plant them somewhere. For you, it’s in your subconscious mind.
Admittedly this is not the most pragmatic of all possible arenas of life, but although it isn’t the most tangible, it still holds plenty of power.
It can take some time for these seeds to bear fruit, but you of all signs can appreciate the notion of acting with precision. Monday, the moon will move through your sign, giving you the cosmic energy to further refine your processes.
Tuesday and Wednesday will help when it comes to appreciating your value to the outside world. Financial issues can come to a head on Wednesday. Be level headed.
You’ll also find this an easy day for interacting with people of influence. Peer below the surface Thursday and Friday. Bring playfulness to the home over the weekend.
LIBRA
It’s time to mix things up in your relationships. If you’re in a relationship, your other half could be feeling a little restless. Perhaps boredom is setting in and they need a change of pace.
It won’t be difficult to see what needs to be changed because it’s being made perfectly clear. So go ahead and break that routine and appeal to the adventuresome sides of your partner. Start on a whole new footing.
Pretend that you’re meeting this person for the first time. If you’re not in a relationship now, this is a fine time to explore your options.
People that may have held little appeal to you in times past are now coming across in different ways, or you just might be seeing them in a different light.
Take a breather on Monday but expect to back in the swing of things Tuesday and Wednesday. Just be careful not to go off half cocked on Wednesday, due to the full moon in your sign.
Keep an eye on finances toward the close of the week and then use the weekend to venture out and about.
SCORPIO
Despite the fact that you are a fixed sign and therefore tend to stick with a given routine, there are times when even the tried and true just doesn’t seem to cut it anymore.
It just doesn’t satisfy you and you feel like you’re ready to scream if you don’t bring about a shift in the usual patterns. The good news is that this won’t be an effort. Your system intuitively knows what needs to happen so all you have to do is go along with the program.
If you are having doubts about what new directions to take when it comes to interpersonal dealings, let Wednesday’s full moon provide you with some insight there.
The chances are you’ll gain some insights as a matter of course, that will tell you quite simply what adjustments to make to bring things into balance.
You might realize that you’ve been bending too far and need to bring that into a more even keel. Thursday and Friday’s moon in your sign will make it easy to implement those new steps. Take a financial risk over the weekend.
SAGITTARIUS
You may be having an epiphany when it comes to romance. Perhaps you’re ready to try a different approach to an existing relationship. Similar to Libras, you may realize that a change of pace is necessary in order to keep your current connection from going stale.
You, being the sign that probably loves adventure more than any other, can certainly find ways to bring a different rhythm to things.
The person to whom you’re connected, probably shares that sense of the bold, which is one of the reasons you’re attracted to each other in the first place.
So get moving. If you’re single but want a new romance, you may very well find one when and where you least expect it. Put yourself out there. The world truly is your stage right now. Tend to career issues Monday.
Tuesday and especially Wednesday will offer you the perspective of friends and colleagues, which could force your hand.
Lay low Thursday and Friday in preparation for the moons entrance into your sign over the weekend. That’s when the real fun will be had.
CAPRICORN
With so many planets now moving through your solar fourth House, there’s bound to be some restlessness on the home front. You might be feeling the urge to shift the mood and possibly alter the texture or feel of your home.
Follow your instincts and give it a whirl. It doesn’t have to be anything drastic that is permanent. Just see if a new slant on things makes you feel better, perhaps more alive. Play around with various options and see what tickles your fancy.
Give yourself time to get adapted. In a few weeks, this may grow on you. Don’t be surprised if family members are declaring a greater sense of independence. This is a good sign so encourage them forward.
Pay attention to little things that hit home Monday. Expect some uncertainty with the powers that be Tuesday and especially Wednesday, as the full moon impacts your career house. Commune with chums late in the week and then pull inward over the weekend.
AQUARIUS
You’re always one to look at life from a different slant than the so-called average individual. And this works to your favor.
Right now there are several planets in your solar third House of ideas, which is stimulating your brain in new directions. You’re intellectually quick minded and should take full advantage of these brainstorms.
They are there for good reason. You may feel as though you’re on a good learning curve as the week progresses. Pay attention to people and events at a distance from you during the course of the full moon on Wednesday.
Let your gut speak to you earlier in the week. You’ll feel very much in your intuitive element Thursday, as both the Sun and Venus conjunct your ruler.
Expect unexpected goodies to arrive. Based on what you learn Wednesday, your attention may shift somewhat the latter half of the week.
PISCES
You have resources at your fingertips that are unique. They may be in the form of talents and skills that are of appeal to the outside world. Or they could stem from a new source of financial assets.
It’s time to make a one time investment into something that may have seemed a bit off the wall in times past. But now you seem to have the impetus to try the untried. Much of this has the sense of urgency.
Go with what your impulses tell you is worthwhile as well as what your subconscious mind is urging you to do.
Let them communicate with one another and find common ground. Revelations could easily come about during the full moon on Wednesday, with circumstances leading up to them Monday and Tuesday.
Allow the input of others to shift your view. Financial issues could come to the surface as well by mid week. Resurrect learning material Thursday and Friday. Play with the big fish over the weekend.

Free Weekly Horoscope March 18 – 24 2013
ARIES
Now that Mercury is direct, insights become clearer. Opt for fall back positions or people you rely on for help that might not be visible to the usual crowd. Work on game plans that you’ve been mulling over since late February when Mercury went retrograde.
Tuesday’s Gemini moon favors putting thoughts down on paper but is best used for what is already in motion. The mood becomes more domestic Tuesday through Thursday, with the moon in Cancer.
The Sun graces your sign on Wednesday, so you’ll fell a surge of energy. And Thursday also brings Venus into your sign, giving you the impetus for self-beautification. You might feel inspired to don a new look, purchase new garb and you’ll no doubt find that others find you even more attractive and appealing.
Watch for clumsiness on Friday as your ruler, Mars. Conjuncts Uranus. Use this energy to act out of the box and mix things up. Sunday is good for a focus on health.
TAURUS
Any wrinkles in communication with comrades will iron themselves out now that Mercury has righted himself. This is a great time to put your heads together and find imaginative ways of expressing ideas, especially for causes you deem worthy.
Be sensitive and receptive to nuances. The slightest little hint holds more power than you may realize. Folks react psychically to what is put out there. Keep your financial wits about you Monday. Writing becomes more relevant Tuesday through Thursday.
As the Sun moves into Aries on Wednesday, you might feel a pull to turn inward. And as Venus joins the Aries party on Thursday, you’ll start to feel protection from your guardian angels.
Pay attention to sudden bursts of inspiration on Friday but guard against letting your temper get the best of you. Watch entrenchment Friday and Saturday. Sunday is grand for creative inspiration.
GEMINI
Now that your ruler is direct, you can expect your connections with decision makers to smooth out. They’re now ready to give you a clearer picture of their vision. Don’t hold it against them if it has taken them a while to get to this place.
The chances are that there were circumstances out of their control that prohibited them from being able to achieve greater clarity before now. Tuesday and Wednesday warrant a glance at your financial picture.
Being the natural social butterfly that you are, it’s hard to imagine that you need greater impetus to get out and about.
But just in case you’ve faltered in that arena, the Sun’s entrance on Wednesday into Aries and therefore your solar eleventh House of things social will certainly rectify that situation.
Venus joins the ride on Thursday bringing love and joy to the mix. Get expressive Thursday through Saturday and then get the home organized on Sunday.
CANCER
Efforts to broaden geographical horizons which may have stalled out in weeks past, should now show signs of forward momentum thanks to Mercury now direct. Similarly, marketing efforts that were in the editing phases, should now be ready for prime time exposure.
You’re mentally charged and ready to feed a hunger for additional knowledge. And the nice part about this trend is that learning comes easily, as if you’re soaking up information like a sponge.
No need for pesky memorization and massive mental strain. Monday’s Gemini moon favors time out for reflection and down time. You’ll be back in the swing of things Tuesday through Thursday as the moon occupies your sign.
Wednesday and Thursday are great for getting a jump on things in the professional arena thanks to the Sun and Venus entering Aries respectively. Break out of your comfort zone over the weekend.
LEO
In weeks past there may have been some confusion regarding economic issues, especially when it comes to shared finances, taxes or insurance. Anything that may have been hanging out in the wind with a high degree of uncertainty should now be showing signs of clarity.
You’re now in a good cycle for moving forward with financial matters. When it comes to personal relationships, you should have a better sense of where things stand and what others are willing to bring to the table. This can apply to business matters and partnerships as well.
Monday is quite social but Tuesday through Thursday are better spent in a more reflective mode. Let those spirit guides speak to you and inspire you.
By Friday you’ll have a much stronger sense of your direction thanks to the moon in your sign through Saturday. Economic issues rear their head on Sunday.
VIRGO
Relationships may have felt a bit unsettled since late February but thanks to your ruler now direct, you have a much better sense of where things are headed.
Other parties, be they on a business or personal level, have a better grasp and are ready to share their feelings as well as their dreams and vision of the future.
If you’re considering new plans of a financial nature, the time is ripe for fine tuning pertinent information and moving forward.
Both the Sun and Venus will enter your house of things sexual this week, boosting your passionate nature and enhancing the vibes you’re putting out. No further explanation is needed.
Enjoy! Superiors will be more than open to your brilliant suggestions on Monday. Buddies are ready to convene and lend their support Tuesday through Thursday.
Take a break Friday and Saturday. You’ll be recharged by Sunday when the moon hits your sign and puts you in charge.
LIBRA
Your productivity goals are now becoming clearer. Not only that, but the people who can help you make things happen are now back on track and are able to share your visions.
They are ready to offer their input, now that they, too, have been able to reach out to their extended circle. So the ripple effect is playing its own role in ways you couldn’t have imagined just weeks ago.
Partnerships are ready to take on new forms, thanks to the Sun moving into your opposing sign of Aries on Wednesday followed by Venus in this same sign on Thursday.
You’re now ready to join forces, sign contracts and be off on new ventures. Monday brings a focus on those at a considerable distance from you.
The midsection of the week assures greater professional recognition. Join in the fun with your social contacts later tin the week. Take a break and just relax over the weekend.
SCORPIO
You’ve been mulling over the processes that will work to help you gain greater control over your life. Over the past several weeks, these ideas were floating around in your mind but may not have completely gelled.
You may have had the feeling that you thought you had settled on the right game plan but the more you considered it, it just didn’t seem to sit right.
However, now that Mercury has gone direct, the concepts that are sitting front and center in your awareness seem to be a much better fit. So now is the time to put them into motion.
The universe is cooperating in the form of both the Sun and then Venus’ entrance into Aries on Wednesday and Thursday respectively.
You can therefore move forward with a greater sense of confidence that your ideas are more than workable. Discuss theoretical concepts during the midsection of the week and then present your ideas to the powers that be at the end of the week.
SAGITTARIUS
People in your family circle have been in a bit of a quandary as to where they’re going, what they want and need and how they’re going to accomplish their goals.
Thanks to Mercury now in a forward direction, much of this uncertainty is coming to a screeching halt. It’s as if the light bulb has suddenly been turned on and what was illusive is now becoming much more concrete.
There are still loose ends to tie up with respect to these matters, but the fog has definitely lifted.
You’ll be in a better position to lend a helping hand this week as both the Sun and Venus move into the mutual fire sign of Aries.
You can now lead by example. There’s no need to give marching orders and even if you did, they probably wouldn’t be heeded.
Pay attention to subconscious clues throughout the middle of the week. Put them in perspective by week’s end. Professional issues start rearing their heads by Sunday.
CAPRICORN
It’s time to reconnect with your immediate surroundings. People in your vicinity such as neighbors or those with whom you have regular communication are now in a position to hear you and understand your messages with much greater clarity than in previous weeks.
Perhaps they weren’t ready or able to accept what you were attempting to communicate, but now they seem to have eliminated the distractions that stood in the way of allowing your messages to be heard.
So even if you feel you’re having to repeat yourself, that’s fine. Just find a different tone and put it back out there. The home life is ready for new energy as of the middle of this week.
Maybe a different aesthetic touch is in order to slightly alter the vibration. Bring flowers into the home or anything else that brings nature to the forefront.
Look for feedback during the midsection of the week. You might be called upon to play the role of the educator as the week winds down, so exhibit your authority.
AQUARIUS
You may have been mulling over some financial options over the course of the previous several weeks. Some of the details could have been a bit murky and just didn’t seem to come together with the clarity you would prefer.
But alas, now that Mercury is heading in a forward direction, the pieces are showing signs of falling into place.
It could take a few more weeks before you get the sense that this whole process is complete, but you’ve got patience and persistence in your corner to help you through.
In the meantime, there are new events that have been in the planning stages that are ready to emerge.
They may have been on hold, but by the middle of the week it would serve you well to take another look at them. Announcements of new adventures are right around the corner.
These are one time events so be spontaneous and throw your hat in the ring. Focus on your health Tuesday and Wednesday. Give relationships more attention as the week winds down and spills into the weekend.
PISCES
Now that Mercury is direct in your sign, you are feeling a stronger sense of clarity, especially regarding where you want to head in the weeks and months ahead.
The time for reflection and meditation is over and the tools you need to make a fresh start are sitting in your toolbox and ready for you to pick up and put to good use.
You’re more aware of how to implement these new changes and your confidence is back on the upswing. Consider the possibility of new investments as the middle of the week unfolds.
Assets are appearing quickly and can be utilized with wisdom, thanks to your visionary nature. Early week domestic distractions give way to a greater sense of control by the middle and latter portion of the week.
You’ll be pleasantly surprised by how much you can accomplish over the weekend. Show those you care about just how deep your feelings go, especially on Sunday. Little gestures go a long way.
