TAURUS (April 21 - May 18)

The Full Moon on the 5th, appears in your 12th House of Hidden Matters, and your emotions seem to be under wraps at least for this period. Anger is often not what it appears to be. If you're having angry feelings try to find out what you're fearing in the situation. Sometimes observing other people who are having temper tantrums can help you be more objective about your own anger. This is a good time to also visualize your goals for the future and to get in touch with the feelings that would come up for you when you're successful. On the 22nd the New Moon appears in your 6th House of Work, Health and Service. It's time to make new starts where work is concerned. Send out your resume or schedule job interviews during the New Moon period…that is if you're unsatisfied with your current place of employment. This is also an opportune time to focus on health. Starting a new work out program or stepping up your present one, will bring about good feelings of accomplishment and ensure good health. Where diet and nutrition are concerned make sure lots of green foods are on the menu. On the 24th, Mars, the action planet moves into your 7th House of Partners and stays there until Dec. 6th. A relationship could change for the better, or you might be inspired to end a relationship because of a partners actions. On the 28th, Mercury, planet of communications turns retrograde until Nov. 18th, and you might experience a change of mind of plans made months ago.

GEMINI (May 19 - Jun 20)

Now the fun and games are over and it's time to get down to business. If you're not happy where you are, now's the time to let good friends know you're looking for new employment. Take a yoga or tai chi class and enjoy the companionship of people who also understand the importance of staying healthy. On the 28th, Mercury, your ruling planet of communications turns retrograde until Nov. 18th. This is the last retrograde Mercury period of the year, and I'm sure you'll have no problem flowing with it. You're a flexible Gemini so any last minute changes or cancellations won't bother you at all. Rethink plans made six months ago and don't get attached to the outcome. In the end, things are going to turn out to be all right and in Divine right order.

CANCER (Jun 21 - Jul 22)

On the 5th the Full Moon appears in your 10th House of Career and Authority Figures.

It's time to start new projects where your living space is concerned. Let go of anything that's no longer useful to you, and replace them with something new and better. If you've been thinking about moving, now is the time to put your feelers out, and let friends know that your looking. On the 24th, Mars the action planet moves into a helpful position and you'll have the energy to be more assertive and to exhibit your leadership skills. However on the 28th, Mercury, planet of communications goes retrograde for a three week period, ending on Nov. 18th.

VIRGO (Aug 23 - Sept 22)

The Full Moon on the 5th appears in your 8th House of Joint Finances. Smart Virgos might be making the last payments on a financial agreement started years ago. Others might be busy organizing finances so that it's easier to make monthly payments. Either way, it's not time to become overly emotional about money. Whether you owe money to someone or someone owes money to you, just remember that it's only money and release all negative feelings either way. On the 22nd the New Moon appears in your 2nd House of Money and again the energy behind finances kicks in.

Follow the urge to attend community meetings and get involved in projects designed to improve your neighborhood. Don't be surprised if you're nominated for a leadership position in a community group. It's time to walk your talk and be the example of what you believe. Go for it Virgo!

LIBRA (Sept 22 - Oct 23)

Libra is the 7th sign in the Zodiac, and the only sign that has an inanimate object as its symbol, the scales.Fairness and justice are important to you and you're often the mediator in disputes because you have the ability to see both sides of a question. Venus, the planet of Love and Beauty is your ruler. You are naturally peaceful, loving and artistic. You can either be "Sweet Libra" or "Lazy Libra", as your laid back demeanor and dislike of anything that's not beautiful makes you avoid people who aren't polite, mannerly or peaceful. Your spiritual lesson is to learn to take a stand for what you believe and to know that you can't be all things to all people. You have an uncanny way of spotting talent in other people, but your biggest test is to recognize your own gifts and talents. In Ancient Africa, Libra was the sign of Maat. The scales had a feather in one side and a heart in the other. In order to pass the test, the heart had to be as light as a feather. 

LIBRA YEAR AHEAD (2006/07)

Your year starts off with a push to accomplish personal goals. This is the year to do all the things you've thought about doing but never made the effort to get them done. Unmarried Libras will be making a push to meet that special person who wants to partner with you "'til death do you part." While you're career is satisfactory you realize that meeting your significant other will complete your life's dream.

In November of this year, Jupiter, planet of joy and expansion will move into your 3rd House of Communications, Close Relatives and Neighbors and stay there for a year long visit. It's time to get out and explore the neighborhood where you live. It's time to meet new people who share similar goals. These "new" people have been there all along, yet you'll be just noticing them now. Close family becomes a source of joy and happiness. If you're looking for your soul mate, pass the word among sibling, aunts and cousins. Married Libras will have multiple opportunities throughout the year to strengthen their relationships. Married or unmarried Libra natives will be more assertive this year. No more going along to get along as you put your desires and aspirations at the top of your list.

Your Month Ahead

You feel the energy to assert yourself at the beginning of the month with the Sun, Venus, Mars and Mercury all in your sign. On the 5th the Full Moon appears in your 7th House of relationships and it's time to let go of relationships that are not working for you, to open up a space for new and better ones. You can get what you want without having to hurt anyone's feelings. Let the sweet Libra come out and quietly but confidently let others know what's going on inside your mind. 

On the 22nd, your personal New Moon in Libra appears in your 1st House of Self. Now's the time to write your list of desires and aspirations for the future. It's also a good idea to do some self-pampering, buy new clothes, get a new hairstyle and let the outside be a true reflection of what's going on inside you. 

On the 28th, Mercury, planet of communications goes retrograde in your 2nd House of Money. Make sure all your bills are paid before making purchases that require time payments.

Mars, your ruling planet of outgoing action moves into your sign on the 24th and stays there until December 6th, 2006. While you might feel the urge to hit the ground running on special projects, it's important to keep in mind that Mercury will be retrograde in your sign on the 28th, until Nov. 18th. It's important to take care of details and paperwork before the retrograde period begins, and go into that period calm, cool and relaxed. Monitor your conversations with people and try not to make promises or commitments you intuitively know can't be honored. The good side of retrograde Mercury is that you get to reflect, meditate and review actions from the past and mentally make changes where needed. Use the Full Moon period on the 5th, to release and let go of all unwanted habits or feelings and then use the New Moon period on the 22nd to start new life sustaining habits. Above all, stay positive and keep your personal goals on the front burner. The overall advice for this month is to go with the flow, or ride the wave. Stay focused on your desires regardless of any delays or seeming setbacks. Actually delays or setbacks that might come up this month are like signals, little red flags that make you stop, look and listen and maybe encourage you to try another way to complete your goals. It could be that something you're trying to do is not in the right timing for now. Or maybe you need to collaborate with someone else, as opposed to trying to go it alone. Open your mind to receiving new information or modalities to be successful in reaching your goals. Above all enjoy the adventure.

SAGITARIUS (Nov 23 - Dec 21)

You'll be busy at the beginning of this month there will be four planets moving through your 11th House of Friends and Large Organizations. On the 5th the Full Moon will be in a compatible fire sign as it moves through your 5th House of Love, Creativity and Children. It's time to let your inner child play. To remember the times in your life when big people's problems were not even imagined. Take some time out to enjoy yourself, work on a hobby or creative talent and do something that makes you feel good. On the 22nd, the New Moon appears in your 11th House and it's time to write down your goals for the future. Take an honest look at your friendships. Are these people you know, or people who are tried and true? Are these people an honest reflection of who you are, or are they taking away from who you want to be? Only you can make the decision as to what names stay in your address book and which ones need to be crossed out. On the 24th Mars moves into Scorpio and into your 12th House of Hidden Matters. You might feel a lag of energy or the need to rest more. Pay attention to your body and give it what it needs. Mars will be in your 12th House until Dec. 6th. This is a good time to reach to those who are less fortunate, to do little acts of kindness for people in need. At the end of the month on the 28th, Mercury planet of communications will start a retrograde period until Nov. 18th. You can redo, rethink, or review plans for the future, as the retrograde seems to slow down projects and put you in a reflective mood. Listen to your inner voice where all things are known and understood.
