Weekly Astrology Forecast for All Signs June 8th 2020

Weekly Astrology Forecast for All Signs June 8th 2020
With our astrologer Elena
Aries

Flashes of insight hand you fresh solutions

She who dares ask gets a different result

Get a different outcome on love

Don’t be afraid to suggest or try something different or even daring this week. Especially when it comes to anything you may be renegotiating. The fact is, if you are to go forward, it can’t be on the same terms as it was before. And be aware that this applies to love and also your money.

Give a little to get more

Venus which rules both remains retrograde in your house of contracts, news, business, and communication. You’ve also got important aspects in your 12th of the past and hidden truths happening too. Ceres is the planet that rules seasons but also power and new deals. It can bring about a compromise or win/win scenario.

Yes, you may have to concede something but you walk away with what you want. Venus angles to both Ceres in here on the 8th and also Chiron in your 1st on the 9th. Which is where daring to ask for something you may not have had the chutzpah to in the past comes in. Whether this is from a lover or partner or an outcome of pay negotiation.

Bring the changes on home

Your 3rd is ruled by Mercury which sits in your 4th of home and long-term security. It too makes an offer to Ceres on the 8th. Don’t be afraid to make an offer or negotiate. But know your price. The Sun in Mercury’s ruling 3rd asks that you consider all the alternatives out there as it tightly shines on Neptune on the 11th. You may not have been able to see this up until now. But now you do, don’t be afraid to put it on the table.

In a nutshell:

Reaching for a radically different solution or daring to suggest something you would have shied away from in the past could just get your what you want, Aries. You’ll never know unless you ask.

 

Taurus

Who is truly on your team?

Who you can rely on may surprise you

Go for soul resonance

Ruler Venus remains retrograde in its ruling 2nd. Re-evaluating your relationship with your cash may feature as well as looking at those connections which you feel are ‘assets’ to you.

Who and what can you count on?

This week sees Venus align with both Ceres in your friendship zone and Chiron in your 12th of hidden truths. The Sun also in your 2nd makes a revealing angle to the ruler of your 12th – Neptune, which is also in your 11th. Mercury in its ruling 3rd of news, business and getting about makes a deal or no deal angle to Ceres also on the 8th.

The upshot of this people showing you their true colours. True and fake friends will be exposed for who they truly are. And this may actually surprise you as to which category people fall in to. You’ll also see you delivers on what they promise and who is simply all talk and not much else.

Slytherin or Gryffindor?

If you like, this is the cosmic equivalent of Hogwart’s Sorting Hat that is sifting through your social contacts. There are just two houses – the people who are true to their words and who you can rely on – and those you clearly can’t. Be aware this could even apply to groups, bands, clubs, associations, parties and organisations. You only want the genuine kind now, Taurus. You know which to choose.

In a nutshell:

Ruler Venus may be backwards still. But it is also intent on showing you which people you can rely on – and those you can’t. Time to sort the true friends from the fake this week, Taurus.

 

Gemini

Be business-like

State your terms

Delve into the details

Outstanding career matters or something which impacts on your status, success or even public image could feature this week. There are bargains to be struck and deals to be done. But you need to ensure you understand the T&C’s – and not be afraid to table a few of your own.

Pay attention to the details

Don’t assume anything in any kind of business or even personal deal now. It’s all too easy to fall into the ‘not wanting to spoil it by asking questions’ trap. By there is a call to be business-like and pragmatic even if you are discussing a reconciliation or a new deal is on the table with your career. Venus remains retrograde in your 1st angling to Ceres broker of compromises and deals in your 10th. The Sun in your 1st also puts Neptune in here in the spotlight on the 11th telling you to look carefully at hidden details, clauses and what is not being discussed.

Outrageous fortune favours the bold

Don’t be afraid to suggest alternatives or put in a few terms and conditions of your own. It’s about being confident in both professional and personal matters now. And not being afraid to put your own terms on the table. Ruler Mercury in your money zone makes an angle of attraction to Ceres also on the 8th. While retro Venus in your 1st on the 9th dares you to suggest something new which could be linked to your future path when it impacts on Chiron. This is an angle of outrageous fortune. So, suggest something you might not have dared to ask for in the past. Don’t ignore the details this week. And state your terms, Gemini.

In a nutshell:

A career matter or something that impacts on your public image or status could be back on the table this week, Gemini. Ensure you are clear about the details. And suggest a few of your own.

 

Cancer

Yes, you CAN

Dare to do it different

Step free of the past once and for all

Breaking free of the past or being able to step into something bigger features this week for you, Cancer.

History vs. Her-story

It’s time to re-frame history– not repeat it. And if someone from it returns now, what you need to do is explore whether things have truly changed between you before recommitting to jumping back in. How do you do that? By taking your time and also being unafraid to put a new deal on the table. Venus in your 12th links you to past people and also past loves – especially when retrograde.

Plus, you have Mercury, planet of news, communication and ideas in your 1st now. Both of these planets make angles of expectation and freedom with Ceres in your 9th on the 8th. There’s a new deal or new world to be explored which sets you free of a past pattern or limitation. But you are going to have to compromise in some way to have it or bring it about.

Open to a stand-out deal

Don’t be afraid to ask for more than you have simply settled for in the past as part of this. The element of daring comes in on the 9th as Venus aligns to out-of-the-box Chiron in your career zone.

This also tells you that success won’t come from following the crowd but from showcasing your own unique ideas or perspective on things. It’s also about taking a chance – possibly on yourself. And seeing clearly how you may have allowed the ideas or others, fear of failing or even of standing out, hold you back.

Dare to be you

The Sun in your 12th aligns to the ruler of your 12th – Neptune, in your 9th. The only person who can hold you back this week is you and your take on things. Set your thinking free – and do it again – but daringly different this time around.

In a nutshell:

Time to be daring. And dare to stand out, Cancer. Those who succeed aren’t afraid to blaze their own trail. Ditch all the critics this week. The outer ones and above all, the voice telling you that you can’t.

 

Leo

Explore the Power of Choice

Say yes to something new

Don’t settle for the same again

There’s an invitation being extended this week to initiate a major change, Leo. One that has a lasting impact on your future. This could just as easily involve saying no as it could to saying yes. Often the biggest changes result from us taking a stand or deciding that something that was once good enough no longer is.

Simply don’t settle

So, don’t be afraid to do just that if required, Leo. The effects may not be felt immediately – or they could be. This applies across the board. People from your past may continue to feature due to Venus retrograde in your 11th and Mercury in your 12th. Both of these are impacting on Ceres in your 8th this week. Ceres rules deals, seasons and also power. And your 8th is where your power resides. That includes the power to say no if you need to. Or alternatively, yes if you truly believe a new and better deal is on the table.

Accept that change can mean more

The idea this week is to step boldly forward and leave the comfortable choice and instead take a chance as opposed to opting for the usual one as Venus and Chiron – that ruler of the outrageous and outrageous fortune, make a daring angle on the 9th.

Spotlight on choices

Do you want something different and exciting – or are you signing on for more of the same? Ruler the Sun also occupies your house of the future. It brashly illuminates Neptune in your 8th on the 11th, showing you whether the choice or decision before you represents something new or simply the past on repeat. Have the courage of your convictions this week, and your right to expect something better, Leo.

In a nutshell:

The Power to Choose is yours this week, Leo. By opting for a different choice than the ones you’ve made in the past, you set your future on a new course. Dare to make that radical choice.

 

Virgo

Revive the magic

Talk terms

Incredible, impossible? – Highly probable!

Venus remains retrograde in your 10th meaning that despite both Ceres and Neptune in your 7th having starring roles in this week’s line-up for you, it’s still not a good time to go looking for love, Virgo.

Nobody expects the love inquisition!

Hearing from or bumping into that old lover and perhaps reviving that connection but on fresh terms is very much favoured however. Especially if you believe that’s the last thing that could ever happen. Ruler Mercury in your 11th trines Ceres in your 7th this week.

While that Venus retro also squares Ceres on the same day (8th). This could see you looking at the opportunity to renegotiating something. The more improbable or impossible you thought it likely to revive – ever – the more the possibility it will increases as Venus sextiles Chiron in your 8th on the 9th.

New deals – new outcomes

This could also apply to a past career opportunity or offer as someone could show you they are willing to come back to the table and talk new terms. However, if this is the case you need to be very clear about what they are offering and also your expectations in turn.

Ensure you have clarity and complete understanding between you whether you are discussing business, joint or personal matters as the Sun also in your 10th, squares Neptune in your 7th on the 11th. Don’t gloss over the details or if this is strictly personal, avoid discussing potential pitfalls or the past for fear of spoiling things in the present. A little transparency and straight talking today avoids disappointment tomorrow, Virgo.

In a nutshell:

Don’t shy away from the details, this week Virgo. Or what you expect from the future. A new agreement could be on the table this week. But you need to be upfront about what you expect from it.

 

Libra

Love enters improbable territory

Show those daily tasks some TLC

New ways of working appear

Ruler Venus remains retrograde in your 9th of big loves, freedom and learning. Things may feel restrictive but they don’t need to be when it comes to reviving that big goal or something you loved to do.

Wild hearts, run free

And yes, even that wild hearted past love could feature now. But of all the signs, you should not need me to tell you this is not the time to explore anything new. Reunions, reconciliations and returns however are highly likely. The more impossible the more likely. Or if there is something you have held back from doing or experiencing in the past, simply because you thought you couldn’t or it was beyond you, again, the odds are in your favour. This week sees Venus sextile Chiron the improbable in your 7th on the 9th. This may have you saying never say never again when it comes to possibilities between you and a past or present partner. All bets are off this week.

Get that feelgood factor

Work and career matters are also in focus. As well as your wellbeing thanks to alignments between Venus, Mercury in your career zone and Ceres in your 6th. You may chance up your routine to incorporate diet or lifestyle changes for instance. Others could see a new project, job offer or business opportunity on the table.

Despite restrictions around new love, there are feelgood opportunities with your name on them – especially when it comes to wellbeing and work. Maybe what’s been lacking on the love front is loving what you do every day whether you are engaged in paid work or not. Being you is a full-time occupation after all. So, show yourself and your daily path the love this week and reveal your higher purpose.

In a nutshell:

Past or present love could take an incredible turn this week. But then it comes to your work, day job, routine or how you feel – time to show your daily business some love, Libra.

 

Scorpio

Head into unknown territory

Try a little fearlessness

Rise up from the past like a phoenix!

You’re the sign prepared to go where other signs fear to tread. And the phoenix of reinvention and rebirth. Out of the ashes of the past comes something bright and new this week.

Get ready for a rebirth

This could be a financial opportunity, a new deal or understanding between you and someone close to you, or the seeds of a new beginning. Venus remains retrograde in your change sector challenging Ceres in your romantic 5th to come up with something new and more workable on the 8th when it comes to love – or what you love to do!

This same day sees Mercury in your sector of opportunity also make an angle to Ceres. But this one is simply charged with fresh potential. There’s an agreement to be reached with someone that puts both of you in new territory. One that is to both your benefits in fact as Venus also aligns to Chiron in your 6th. That better choice is probably one you would not have contemplated before. But now you see it’s obvious. So, don’t be afraid to suggest something out of the box now.

Laser surgery for the heart and soul

The Sun also in your change sector shows you more solutions or ways forward as it puts Neptune also in your 5th under the spotlight. This could hand you real solutions to something long standing.

You can delve deeply into the heart of the matter now and not be distracted by the things that truly don’t. Call this laser surgery for the soul as what is between you and love is exposed and excised for good. And yes, all this may involve delving deeply into the heart of the matter. But the ability to soar upwards afterwards is well worth the probing for the truth, Scorpio.

In a nutshell:

Going deeper and fearlessly into the past brings about new possibilities for your future this week, Scorpio. Angels and others may fear to tread – but if you want a fresh start, don’t be afraid to go there this week!

 

Sagittarius

Your love revival takes many forms

Win with compromise

This week’s spotlight: What you truly need

Venus remains retrograde in its ruling 7th still meaning new love ventures are still on hold, Sag. Of course, the doors to reviving past loves remain open wide. So, don’t limit yourself when it comes to the form this love revival could take this week.

Win/win is your superpower

Compromise is your key to opportunity now as Venus and Ceres ask you to find the middle path on the 8th. The same day as Mercury in your sector of power money, change and sharing, could put a new deal on the table for you as it also makes a flowing alignment to Ceres in your 4th. As well as love of the personal and embracing kind, this could also see you entering into a new agreement around money or living arrangements too.

Get ready for your close-up

Venus also sextiles Chiron in your pleasure and romance zone on the 9th which could not only lead to a reconciliation but simply reviving something you love to do or shine at. Are you afraid to showcase yourself and your talents? Can you in fact be too outrageous and confident? This angle tells you there is no such thing for you now. Don’t be afraid to stand out or try what you thought was impossible.

It’s all about the love whether it’s for someone or simply something. The truth around what this is if you are still waiting for insight, could be exposed on the 11th. The day when the Sun in your 7th asks Neptune for a revelation in your 4th. Head towards those true needs when it comes to love and bring it on home this week, Sag!

In a nutshell:

You may be a free-spirit. But you need love and the pursuit of it as an essential ingredient for your happiness, Sag. So, don’t be afraid to suggest or try something new to get that this week.

 

Capricorn

Don’t take yourself for granted

Show those everyday details the love

Only take back what makes you feel good!

Show that everyday routine and especially that body the love as Venus continues its retro-cycle in your 6th, Capricorn. If you’ve been neglecting yourself lately, now is the time to put major adjustments in motion.

Show your routine the love

Taking care of yourself, eating better, listening to what your body is telling you are all ways to show yourself and yes, the world in general, that you are worth it. Get creative when it comes to that day job whether paid or unpaid. We all have daily tasks we need to attend to. Are they ways you can enhance yours to lessen their mundane aspect and add sparkle?

And lastly, how’s that work/life balance? Does that need some love too? Ceres is all about new deals, win/win and compromise. That compromise could be struck between what you know you have to do and what you want to do this week thanks to Venus and Mercury both impacting on Ceres in Mercury’s ruling 3rd on the 8th.

Get ready for a revival

Mercury is in Venus’s ruling 7th while Venus is in Mercury’s ruling 6th. It’s the perfect opportunity to find the middle ground between duty and desire. Please bear in mind however that Venus retro means it is not a good time to embark on a new love affair no matter which house of your chart it is in.

Hearing from a past love or going back to one – especially if you considered this impossible is highly likely due to Venus’s angle to Chiron in your 4th on the 9th. The Sun in your 6th angling to Neptune in your 3rd – both Mercury houses, also points to news or an activity of the past-tense on the 11th.

Look at whether reviving something enhances your wellbeing or daily life before accepting it (or them) back in again. This week is all about creating a new balance by channelling love into those areas you’ve overlooked.

In a nutshell:

Your everyday life and your wellbeing asks that you show them the love this week, Capricorn. It’s so easy to overlook. But this week reminds you not to take these areas – or yourself, for granted.

 

Aquarius

Invest in a fresh sense of self-worth

Impossible? Improbable? News could arrive you never thought to receive

Is it time for some re-fabulisation?!

Re-fabulise yourself this week, Aquarius. Venus is still retro in your 5th of romance and glamour. Yes, the bad news is this makes it a bad time to begin that new love affair.

Revive the flow

The good news however is that this could either bring back an old lover. Or see you reconnecting to the lost art of getting your glam on or reviving a hobby or creative gift you have let lapse. Don’t go overboard with the spending however as Venus rules your bank account. But spoiling yourself a little if you’ve not been doing this lately and have ended up feeling dull and overlooked as a result, could stand you in good stead for when Venus heads direct once more.

Channelling your financial and other resources into these areas or even reviving an old income stream to make it shiny and productively new could be the result of Venus retro and Mercury impacting on Ceres in Venus’s ruling 2nd on the 8th.

Dare to be fabulous

The 9th puts Venus at an angle to Chiron in your 3rd daring you to say what needs to be said. And if you do, to be prepared for an unexpected result. You could even hear from someone you never expected to again. All bets are off now. The Sun remains in your 5th this week, angling to Neptune in your 2nd on the 11th. This could highlight how or even where, you have not been valuing yourself of late. Time to update that inner worth as well as maybe how you show yourself the love, Aquarius.

In a nutshell:

Just how fabulous do you feel, Aquarius? Time to look at how you feel affects what you attract into your life. Invest in an upgrade that showcases just how valuable you are – to yourself and others.

 

Pisces

Discover what you really need

Follow where insight flows

Ditch the negative and head towards the positive!

Ceres and your ruler Neptune in your 1st are connecting you to a new way to fulfil your most basic needs for love, nurturing and security this week. This is about what you truly need as opposed to what you want. And there’s a big difference between the two in many cases.

Go directly to what your heart needs

You need to use heart-centered wisdom and insight to discern the difference between the two now. Venus retrograde in your 4th of home, family, security and living arrangements puts you back in touch with something or somewhere that is essential to that feeling of stability and a place to call your own. It angles to Ceres in your 1st on the 8th which is all about checks and balances.

Mercury in your 5th of romance, children and good times also makes an enhanced angle to Ceres on the same day. Please remember with the planet of love retrograde this is not a good time to embark on a new love affair to fill any need. This is about looking at your past and roots and perhaps reviving or reclaiming that feeling of coming home and filling those long-term needs.

Just flow!

The 9th has Venus angle to Chiron in Venus’s ruling 2nd which could literally hand you the unlooked for means to bring this about. The 11th sees the Sun, also still in your 4th, put your ruler Neptune in the spotlight. This could show you the perfect way to ditch past negativity and move forward into a fresh sense of enlightenment. Especially when it comes to identifying those real needs you’re trying so hard to fill. If you feel the pull towards spending time near water – or even a relaxing bath, heed this. Insight flows to you this way, Pisces.

In a nutshell:

This week puts you in touch with what you truly need as opposed to what you think you do. Insight flows to you so you can stop wasting time on what doesn’t work. And flow with what does, Pisces.

June 2020 Monthly Astrology – Transformation

Your Monthly Astrology Horoscope for June 2020

Hello Gorgeous Soul,

Wow!  June brings us a climax of cosmic eclipse activity, as well as pesky Mercury retrograde. Oh yes, retrograde mayhem is dragging up issues from the past to be healed. Trust me, the rewards will be worth it. June’s cosmic dance climaxes in the Pluto and Jupiter conjunction on the 30th, which is a direct repeat of the vibe of early April. What was going on for you then?  On a global and individual level, sweeping changes are coming.

Get ready for a full-on spiritual clear out. We are dealing with the past and diving into the shadow to free ourselves to move forward. 

Early June astrology – Full Moon in Sagittarius Eclipse

Early June brings a Full Moon eclipse in Sagittarius, and there’s a ton of bolshy Mars energy. On top of that, she opposes Venus retrograde. What does this mean? We do not understand each other as well as we could.

 Ideas and beliefs are passionately polarised. We need to tune into our heart chakra to boost our love and connection to one another. Even in personal relationships, we may be tempted to throw down ultimatums. It is more important than ever to walk, talk and speak with love.

Having said that, if we need to end a relationship or toxic friendship, we can do that now.

New Moon in Cancer and Solar eclipse

We are shifting and evolving, not only our view of ourselves but what nurtures us. Big decisions are made regarding our home and family. As with all eclipses, we aren’t seeing the full picture until later on. 

Rest assured, although we don’t have the complete information, liberating changes are forming beneath the surface. All will be revealed in the coming months.

Weekly Astrology Horoscope 1st June 2020 – Full Moon in Sagittarius

Weekly Astrology Horoscope 1st June 2020 – Full Moon in Sagittarius

Hello Moonchild,

June astrology is pretty intense! This week, prepare for a cosmic ride. Hurtling us through the past and into new emotional territory. Firstly, this week we have a Full Moon in Sagittarius. Traditionally the Full Moon in Sagittarius is all about travel, adventure, and expansion. So, there might be a feeling of ‘itchy feet’ as a surge of energy is landing to shake things up. In addition, she’s bringing with her an emotional revelation, moving us forwards as she hustles our souls towards fresh horizons.

Sun conjunct Venus

Yay! When it comes to love, a stunning transit between the Sun and Venus resets our confidence. So, we can upgrade our love intentions, work on self-love, and rekindle our connection to old lovers and friends. In short, there’s a major reboot going on. Eventually, Venus delivers passionate gifts. What love healing do you need? Take some time out to meditate, delve into your intuition, and reflect on relationship patterns.

Full Moon eclipse

Back to that Full Moon in Sagittarius! She’s a tricky Moon, as not only is she eclipsed, she’s also square Mars the feisty, while also opposing Venus the planet of love. Emotions run high this week as the astrology rattles our feelings, leading to extremes. Don’t forget an eclipse initially hides the full story. Whatever you feel is going on now, there is more beneath the surface.

Venus the planet of love is retrograde along with Jupiter the lord of expansion. People, situations, and old emotions are surfacing so that we can resolve them. However, as Mercury is going into retro-shadow, if you feel someone is gaslighting you or up to their old tricks, let them go.

Here’s your weekly astrology video

Weekly Astrology Forecast for All Signs June 1st 2020

Weekly Astrology Forecast for All Signs June 1st 2020
Aries

Make time for what you want to do

Love gets back in touch

Reclaim the dream

Mercury retroshadow begins in Cancer and your 4th this week. So, begin to apply the Retro Rules especially around anything to do with property. Buying and selling, leasing and renting, roommates if you have them, your landlord and even – clunk – domestic appliances. With Jupiter still very much retrograde in your career house this too could be affected.

Reframe those roles

Looking at who does what around the home could also be in focus thanks to Vesta entering your 4th on the 4th. Talking about what’s fair may feature on the day as the Sun in your 3rd tightly angles to ruler Mars in your 12th.

Some of you may hear from blasts from the past this week or good news you have been waiting on finally arrives as the Sun and retro Venus in your 3rd meet on this day. You’ve a deep need for something now that expands your soul. Hence you may chafe at what restricts you now like distancing and lockdown. Which is why narks around domestic duties may surface.

Re-ignite the dream

This week’s full Moon of the 5th is an eclipsed one in your 9th. The house of adventure, expansion and freedom. Stirring your desire for something more and to escape what you feel confines you. Look deep within as to what you may be trying to escape. Eclipses conceal don’t forget. If you can’t actually go anywhere right now, is it time to re-focus on those big dreams you’ve stopped pursuing?

Release yourself

It also once more triggers ruler Mars and the Sun in your 3rd. This is all about a release into something bigger. Which can be as simple as switching up that routine that’s become a rut. It’s time to speak up when it comes to taking on more than your fair share this week. All work and no play makes Aries very dull indeed. And we all know that’s not you now, is it?

In a nutshell:

This week sees you restless and hungry for something that takes you out of the ordinary. The escape route is there if you look for it, Aries. Shake up that dull routine. Domesticity isn’t you this week.

 

Taurus

Stick to retro rules you can bank on

Are you valued?

Love demands you look within

Double trouble! Or should I say double retrograde mayhem? Ruler Venus remains retrograde in its ruling 2nd while Mercury in its ruling 3rd in your chart begins its retroshadow this week. This is retro lite as opposed to the full retro 2.0 which is heading your way. Apply the retro rules now and adhere to them as if they are etched on stone tablets. Especially when it comes to money matters.

Shore up that self-worth

Refinancing is favoured as the Sun conjuncts retro Venus on the 3rd. Some of you may also hear about a possible income stream or payment that has been held up. But entering into new loans, credit agreements or borrowing now should be approached with extreme caution. Read the tiny print. Re-read it again and have an expert cast an eye over it if necessary.

Avoid big purchases unless something is broken beyond repair. And only spend on what you need as opposed to that ‘must have’ item. You don’t need it and could soon find you no longer want it if you succumb. Are you using ‘stuff’ to fill up an empty gap n your life? Satisfaction comes from self-worth.

Go Deeper into love

Vesta’s appearance in your 3rd may actually assist you in looking at the difference between need and want. Changes are in the air this week too. Possibly around friendships or one particular friend. If you already have a gut feeling about who I am talking about, pay close attention. The Sun squares Mars in your social sector on the 4th.

And it’s time for some serious introspection and the 5th delivers an eclipsed full moon in Mars’s ancient ruling 8th. While Mars hands you confidence it can also expose those frenemies and fake friends. Discovering you don’t share the same values or are no longer on the same page could see shifts occur in connections. Your ruler retro and this eclipse could have you looking at what you and the other party get out of the connection. And confronting this if necessary.

Set your stock to rise

How you are made to feel by others around your self-worth could also feature. This eclipse asks you to set your emotional worth higher. And to act accordingly if others show they don’t value that.

In a nutshell:

Have the confidence when it comes to your money to know the difference between what you need and what you want. The same goes for friendships this week. Only people who truly value you are worth your time.

 

Gemini

Take care of your cash and it will take care of you

Adjust that reflection

Changes in relationships begin with self-love

You have ruler Mercury starting its retroshadow phase in your 2nd. Plus, Venus which rules this house, retrograde in your 1st. And an eclipse in your partnership zone. Read your monthly forecast for more on how important this eclipse can be for you. Especially when it comes to love and money.

That retro rule book has extra pages

You know the retro rules by heart. But this rulebook has additions. Because as well as putting a hold on love, you need to be looking at your expenditure this week. Basically, are you using stuff to fill a bigger (emotional) hole? The sub-theme to all this is are you worth it? I am not talking about the advertising slogan kind of worth it. But are you worth more within?

Knowing our true worth is wanting the best for us. And often this doesn’t translate into that designer outfit or bag. We value ourselves too much to plunge ourselves into debt over things. And while we may desire beautiful objects (which Venus rules incidentally), we know we are enough without them.

Know your worth

Vesta meets the North Node in your 1st on the 3rd before it too arrives in your money and values house. Have you allowed others to peg your value on what you earn or have or even how you look? The 3rd also sees the Sun in your 1st meet retro Venus. Reconnect to your true worth which has nothing to do with external factors. And certainly not the opinions of others.

Take your time with love

This week delivers an eclipsed full Moon in your 7th of long-term loves and partners. One relationship with be in focus. But don’t jump to any conclusions. The rulebook says eclipses conceal. If you have factors between 11-19 degrees of your own sign or Virgo, Sag or Pisces expect revelations to follow. It could involve how others or one person sees you is a reflection of how you see (and value) yourself. Take your time as the image may form and then re-form. Adjust that inner reflection accordingly, Gemini.

In a nutshell:

This week’s full Moon acts like a mirror. Someone reflects back at you your innermost feelings about yourself. Look closely, Gemini. You can adjust that reflection if you need to.

 

Cancer

Check that internal barometer

Ditch those energy drains

What you do and where you are determines how you feel

There’s a big focus this week on your wellbeing, Cancer. You are going to be even more sensitive than usual to ‘atmospheres’, energy drains and even the weather! Take it from me, you are now your own infallible internal barometer when it comes to what is good for you – and what isn’t. Pay close attention to those gut feelings and that energy level. Especially if you are dealing with old issues or people from your past.

That old familiar feeling

Mercury starts its retroshadow in your sign this week. Put those retro rules into action. But remember, Mercury rules your 6th house of wellbeing and routine. This week sees Vesta conjunct the North Node in your 12th (3rd). This same day also sees the Sun meet retro Venus in here. This could deliver a blast from the past or something new which nonetheless feels familiar. The question around it is – how does it make you feel?

Time for that soul detox!

Vesta has links to your wellbeing too. In fact, there are astrologers who believe Vesta should rule our 6th house instead of Mercury. It arrives in your 1st on the 4th. It’s asking you to examine the effects of what you do, what you eat, that routine, where you are and who you hang out with, has on you. You may suddenly make connections between one, some or all of these.

Yep, it’s soul detox time. What’s more, your higher self knows what it is you need to cleanse. Those thoughts? Those habits? That routine? Your ruler the Moon is eclipsed in your 6th on the 5th. So, something simply is no longer working for you. The connection may not yet be clear so follow those insights.

Get ready to rebound

Time to bounce back if you have been feeling drained by making bold, long term adjustments which free you. The eclipse angles to Mars, planet of confidence and action in your 9th. And also the Sun in your 12th. It’s an ‘Ah-ha!’ moment followed by determination. You see if something is actually good for you. Or now. Once you do, head towards the decision that supports your energy. And ditch any drains this week.

In a nutshell:

How you feel within in your best guide for the direction you should head in this week. And the decisions you need to take, Cancer. Take note of what feeds you mind, body and soul and head towards that.

 

Leo

Feelings reveal the truth

Make love wait for you

Let the fun back in!

This week brings an eclipsed full Moon in your 5th of all things close to a Leo’s heart. Plus we have major retrograde weather happening. The past could feature in some way. But love could get complicated. To avoid retro traps – especially those of the romantic variety – read on.

Back to the future

Mercury retroshadow begins in your 12th of the past on the 2nd. This is retro lite but it can still deliver snafus and delays. Plus, you have Venus at full retro in your 11th. Old friends could be in touch but that past lover needs to prove they have changed before you should consider giving them a second chance. Watch for who you hear from around the 3rd when Vesta meets the North Node in your 11th and ruler the Sun meets Venus. You need to look at how you have been treated in the past by anyone who wants to come back in.

What’s your feelings feeling?

Don’t dismiss what you are feeling as on the 4th Vesta arrives in your 12th. Even if this goes against what other people may be telling you. Or how you hope things are. This is the day before the eclipse in your 5th. It could be a foreshadowing of what that eclipse may bring. Call it a reality check. Eclipses rarely deliver their message exactly on the day they arrive. So, tune in to those insights now. And trust your gut.

Love, children, creativity

As well you know being the 5th house of the zodiac, this rules lovers, children, creativity, fun and pleasure. Because Venus which rules our love life is retrograde, this could have you wondering about someone’s intentions as the full Moon appears in shadow on the 5th. You can in fact take it you are ‘in the dark’. But you have a strong hunch about something or someone.

This could even relate to a child or younger person. Try to steer clear of new emotional entanglements now. The person may not be all they appear to be. Resist the urge to splurge too. Your 5th rules pleasure and that includes gorgeous, glittery and glamourous items. Designer shoes, clothing, jewellery, lingerie. It could be that desire to spoil yourself is coming from an emotional hole. Or you may fall out of love with your purchase once the Venus retro is over.

Make love wait for you

The same goes for that lover. You could end up in a ‘What was I thinking?’ situation. Eclipse and retro remedies include spending time with your children or inner child, creative play and self-expression and love revivals. This includes hobbies and past-times. And if that old lover does appear – ask that they woo you all over again. Delays simply provide you with more insight into what you need now, Leo.

In a nutshell:

It’s a back to love kind of week, Leo. But steer clear of anything new. Instead re-explore what used to make your heart beat faster. This may not be a person – but if it is, don’t be afraid to go back to the beginning.

 

Virgo

Just breathe

Look past that initial reaction to inner strength

Ask directly

You need breathing space this week, Virgo. Emotional room to move and grow. Space in which to expand your soul and to welcome in what you truly need to sustain you. First, this week sees ruler Mercury commence retroshadow in your 11th. Old friends and connections may feature as well as the usual retro rules. You also have Vesta’s arrival in this house on the 4th. Female friends may also feature. Is it time to reach out to those gal pals? Even via facetime? Kiki on-line if you can’t in person.

Do you have chart factors at 11 – 19 degrees?

Check your chart for factor between 11-19 degrees in your own sign, Gemini, Pisces or Sagittarius where this week’s full Moon is eclipsed on the 5th. If you have them, then you will feel very emotional at this time as this is the Moon’s ruling house. If you are feeling vulnerable, then ask for what you need directly. Don’t expect people to automatically know what this is as emotional signals can be hard to translate at this time.

However, you are more sensitive and intuitive than usual when it comes to tuning in to the needs of others. Be aware however that if you do have factors in Gemini, this may affect work and career too. Looking at career progress to date and coming up with a plan is your best course of action now. If we are talking career or even status – as in your job title, personal title or public reputation, this always ties in to your sense of stability and security. Which of course is ruled by the Moon and your 4th.

Game face on

It may be hard to keep your cool – especially if you feel under any kind of pressure around work matters. It is time however to try to be as constructive as possibly when it comes to anything that impacts on where you live, your security or your income.

This eclipsed full Moon asks we reach deep within and discover just how much we are capable of. You may access hidden resources within you had no idea existed. So, stay cool and come from a place of emotional strength. You got this.

Keep retro happy

Venus retro means love is on hold so don’t break retro quarantine now, Virgo, If you do, you are likely to end up feeling let down or stuck in an ‘it’s complicated’ situation. Revision, returns and reconciliations – all possible. And when it comes to those needs – take the direct approach.

In a nutshell:

Reach past that initial emotional response this week, Virgo. It’s time to seek out your inner strength. Part of this is the confidence to ask directly for the solution you need. You got this.

 

Libra

Life is not meant to be experienced on fast-forward

Work or career matters may go back and forth

Time to give ‘me’ time your priority

Career matters may go back and forth between now and next month as Mercury enters its retroshadow phase in your 10th this week. Expect changing roles, minds and nothing to be decided. I should not need to remind you that love is very much on hold now. Except for the past kind.

Head towards what frees you

Vesta also enters here from the 4th. Before it does, it meets the North Node in your 9th on the 3rd. This is the same day as the Sun meets your retro ruler Venus in here. You may make a decision you have been putting off for a while as a result of all this. Basically, to move away from something that has become a dead-end for you.

Take time for the inner you

The link between stress and wellbeing is also something you will be more aware of than usual this week. This is all down to Mars in your 6th. Are you always in a hurry? Running on empty? Mistakes and accidents can occur but also that feeling of being constantly tired. If so, this is the week when you will confront this and do something about it. Look to mindfulness techniques to recharge. And if you are one of those still working from home or self-isolating, there is where you can make this really work for you.

Rely on intuition – not what you hear

With your ruler backwards, it is still not the time for love or money decisions. Hence those career factors also impacting on this now. The Mercury retroshadow plus an eclipsed full Moon in Mercury’s ruling 3rd on the 5th all adds up to you not having all the facts. Reversals, indecision and delays could feature. Or you later discover you were only given part of a bigger picture. So, take nothing on face value this week. The truth when it does emerge may look very different.

Work that retrograde and recharge

All the more reason to take your time and adopt a ‘wait and see’ approach. Your insight will be your best guide now. So, listen to that even if others say it simply isn’t so. If you do find yourself depleted or asked to take on extra, now could be the time where you stop and take stock. When was the last time you smelled the roses, Libra? Scheduling a little more ‘me’ time may be just the work solution you’re seeking this week.

In a nutshell:

Have you taken on too much, Libra? You will explore the link between what you have to do and how you feel this week. Downshifting into ‘me’ time could hand you back that precious time – and energy.

 

Scorpio

Have an alternative plan – just in case

How you are treated says a lot about you

Yes, you are worth it!

Self-worth, sharing and how you are treated by others will be your main these this week, Scorpio. First however, the major retro weather we’re experiencing continues to build as we have Mercury entering its retroshadow period in your 9th. This is the house of mass transportation – airlines, long haul flights, international business. Most of us are still not going anywhere but events or people overseas may impact on you in some way.

Retro rules playbook at the ready!

Astrology isn’t meant to be scary. But it does give us the heads up for when we may need an alternative game plan. Or to just ‘Be prepared’. This especially applies to your money this week. And your self-worth. Do you need to set a few new values? Especially around how others see you, equal treatment, pay or respect? All these are in focus as Vesta bumps the North Node in your 8th on the 3rd. Reset those values. Have an alternative game plan.

The Sun also meets retrograde Venus in here on the same day. Your credit score, bank account, loan, mortgage, investments, pay or something you share with others may be your prime focus. But at the heart of this are your expectations and ideas around being ‘worthy’.

Embrace a new deservedness

There’s an eclipsed full Moon in your money zone (which Venus rules) on the 5th. It also triggers a T-square with ancient ruler Mars in your 5th. Your emotional value, your talents, skills and abilities and how others see and treat you, all reflect your own beliefs around what you deserve. Hopefully that’s the best, Scorpio. If not, adjust your expectations accordingly.

In a nutshell:

A powerful eclipsed full Moon asks that you look at what you believe you deserve this week. This also includes how you feel you should be treated by others on a personal level. From your bank account to the bedroom, work on that worth.

 

Sagittarius

Some things deserve a second look

You are the difference

Love goes retroactive!

Ruler Jupiter remains retrograde in your money house. Venus which rules this is also retrograde in its other ruling 7th. And now this week, Mercury retroshadow begins in in your other ‘money’ house and also your house of sex – your 8th. I should therefore not need to over-sell the point that love and money matters are most definitely on hold. Plus, you have an eclipse in your sign on the 5th. When it comes to you and another. Or simply you and self-love, there’s more going on than meets the eye, Sag.

Your superpower starts with ‘re’

Your ability to re-frame, revive or even renegotiate is your superpower right now. And while new love is a no-go area, past loves are your playground. This week sees Vesta also in your 7th conjunct the North Node on the 3rd. And this is also the day when the Sun meets retrograde Venus in here. You could be looking at the return of a lover, something you loved or a work opportunity. If so, something has changed since the last time you were in this position. And that something is you, Sagittarius. So, you will look at this and also expect something different this time around.

Welcome to your relaunch and revival

Vesta moves on into your powerful 8th on the 4th. You will no longer be content with the way things have been structured or shared in the past. You’ll have the confidence and the know-how to ask for more or something better and fairer. The 5th sees the full Moon eclipsed in your 1st. What’s going on behind the scenes, Sag? Either with you directly or between you and someone else?

Check your chart for factors between 11-19 degrees in your sign. And also your opposite sign of Gemini as well as Virgo and Pisces. You could be the one not ready to reveal something to those closest to you. Think partners, bff’s, long term working relationships, collaborations and even rivals and opponents. Or you could a strong feeling that someone is holding something back.

Is it emotional validation and recognition – another ‘re’ words, that you are seeking? How about a re-balance around domestic matters? One of the things you may push towards is that all-important freedom. Remember when it comes to outcomes, you are the difference this time around, Sag.

In a nutshell:

If the past reappears this week – either in the form of a person or a situation, what’s different this time round? The answer is easy: You are. So, ask for something different when it comes to moving forward, Sag.

 

Capricorn

Explore fresh alternatives

What comes around may need a new response

Opt for the feelgood factor

With Mercury retroshadow starting in your 7th and Venus retrograde in Mercury’s ruling 6th, love, work, money and even wellbeing matters need a second or even third look now. The usual Merc retro rules need to be in place no matter what house Mercury heads backwards in.

Hidden truths, higher insight

And please don’t forget, this all occurs against a backdrop of Jupiter and Pluto retrograde in your 1st and ruler Saturn retrograde in your 2nd. Simply put, when it comes to those personal goals, nothing is decided and things may go back and forth for a while before they are. Plus, you have an important eclipse in your mysterious and spiritual 12th. You’ll need those soul smarts to navigate all this, Cappy. So open up to that intuition like never before.

Before any kind of decision is made, you need more information anyway. Or to look at the alternatives. The Nodes rules karma – what goes around comes around. This week sees Vesta in your 6th meet the North Node in here. While on the same day (3rd), the Sun and retrograde Venus meet. Are you choosing the same thing, personal dynamic again and again, Capricorn? Can you see a pattern here?

Love makes the karma go round

Vesta moves off into your 7th on the 4th and when it does, look at past themes between you and partners. Anything looking familiar? The 5th links you to the past as the eclipsed full Moon appears in your 12th. As you know, full Moons reflect their into the house opposite to the one they are in. And eclipsed Moons a shadow or mystery. In this case, your 6th. So, there is a link here between what you are choosing or thinking and whether this does you any good or not.

Is it time to choose different?

This will trigger a T-square between the Sun in your 6th and Mars in Mercury’s other ruling house – your 3rd. Understand if you receive news or even if someone reappears, you don’t have to make a decision right away. Or opt for that usual choice. Ask if this makes you feel good – or not. That’s your lead on decision making this week, Capricorn.

In a nutshell:

Jumping in – especially if this involves anyone from your past or a situation which feels familiar, may not be in your best interest. Take your time in making that decision. And look at all the alternatives first.

 

Aquarius

Understanding the past doesn’t mean repeating it

Start a new karmic chapter

Money can’t buy you love!

Carry those retro rules with you now Aquarius if you feel you need reminding. That in itself is a retro word as Mercury heads into retroshadow phase in its ruling 6th. All ‘re’ words apply now. You also have Jupiter planet of expansion and opportunity retro in your 12th along with Pluto. Saturn retrograde in your 1st and Venus retrograde in your 5th. In addition this week brings you and eclipse. So, there’s nothing new under the Sun for you. However, something can be re-born in a new form.

Re-runs and returns

Karma is at work. If there is unfinished business between you and someone, now is the time when the books are balanced. Just be mindful that simply because they come back in, doesn’t mean they stay for good. Watch around the 3rd when Vesta meets the North Node in your 5th and the Sun meets retrograde Venus in here the same day. You may find that any old issues that were there before are still present. But that you needed to know this in order to close the book between you.

Friends and the future

This week also brings an eclipsed full Moon in your 11th on the 5th. Goals and also friendships may get tested for resonance. Past friends or even lovers could re-enter your life as this Moon will shine its light across into your 5th of romance and pleasure.

This is not a good time however to enter into new financial agreements as the ruler of your 2nd (Venus) is backwards and this Moon triggers a T-square between it, the Sun in your 5th and Mars in your 2nd. Avoid impulse buys, over-spending in general and above all, signing off on that credit card or loan. You may be filling an emotional desire as opposed to what you truly need.

And what is that, Aquarius? It could just be something money can’t buy. Like fulfilling that goal for instance. Does one need to be revived? So, if the past reappears ask if it fills that gap. If all it buys you is more of the same, then hold out for something better.

In a nutshell:

‘Re’ words feature this week. Returns, reconciliations, re-runs. And balancing the karmic books on some level. If something comes back in, it’s designed to do just that. Close a chapter to open a new one.

 

Pisces

Own your life path

Get that balance between responsibility and dreams

Set boundaries

Love and money matters continue to meet with red or amber lights this week, Pisces. Mercury begins its retroshadow in your 5th from the 2nd. Plus Venus remains retrograde in your 4th. This is a time of consolidation and working with what you have or have already achieved rather then beginning something new.

Keep it close to home

It’s rebuilding time in other words. Property dealings may also stall or fall through due to Venus being backwards in this zone in your chart. This may not apply if you are moving back somewhere you have lived before however. Family matters may also require your attention this week.

Past themes around who cares for who, does what or takes responsibility could re-surface as Vesta meets the North Node in your 4th and the Sun meets retro Venus all on the 3rd. This could take the form of someone feeling they are being asked to take on more than their fair share of domestic tasks, or expected to care for an elderly relative say simply because they are the unmarried one. Opt for self-care as if you are running on empty you simply have nothing to give.

Do you have chart factors between 11-19 degrees?

Check your chart. Do you have factors between 11-19 degrees of your sign? Or else in Gemini, Virgo or Sagittarius? Time to look at boundaries and your ability to say ‘No’ if so. The full Moon in your 10th on the 5th is eclipsed. You may feel at the same time vulnerable but also that you have access to more than your usual reservoir of emotional strength. All thanks to confidence-giving Mars in your 1st.

If you need to find your courage to speak up about unfair responsibilities or expectations placed upon you, now is your chance. You have but only one life to live. Well, you have many but this one is the only one you are truly experiencing right now. Look carefully at what you are giving it away to or for. And ask yourself if this is fair or truly how you feel you should be rewarded? If you’ve not been able to say no before, saying it now could simply re-balance your life in your favour, Pisces.

In a nutshell:

Are you expected to give too much, Pisces? This week asks for rebalancing if the asks others are making of you are turning out to be too one-sided. Just say ‘Yes’ – to your right to live your life your way.

Weekly Astrology 25th May 2020 – The future revealed

Weekly Astrology 25th May 2020 – The future revealed

For your Written Astrology for May 25th 2020 click here

The North Node is all about timing and karma. 19-year cycles to be precise. It’s now in Gemini which rules communication and commerce as well as our early lives. So, as Mercury, Gemini’s ruling planet bumps into first Vesta in here on the 26th and then the Node on the 28th, expect gender issues to be front and foremost and old norms challenged. The Nodes are concerned with 19-year cycles, so we’re not simply talking about what may have been set in motion 19 years ago. In other words, 2001. But even further back than that.

So, 1982-3 and yes, further back still. Those with entrenched views on the roles of the sexes may be up for a confronting time. We may see an increased focus on female leadership in both politics and business, equal pay, reproductive rights. In other words the white, male 1% trying to impose their will on half the world’s population. And even men’s rights to paternity leave or their roles in child rearing.

Mars and Ceres

Mars and ceres, two powerful male and female energies, remain interlocked in Pisces and sextile Uranus in Taurus at the start of the week. Again, this may bring up not just equality over pay but who has the say over who has what. Or even whether some societies consider one human being more valuable or to be taken more seriously, simply due to their gender. Pisces is the sign of higher spiritual truth. On a purely personal level, we may become more aware of how we are treated by people around us based solely on the gender we identify with. For some of us, this may come as a shock, especially when we see how this has shaped out behaviour or ideas based on the messages we received in our early lives.

We’re all be talking home and family matters and what we have inherited – the ideas handed down to us when Mercury arrives in Cancer on the 28th. This is the sign of motherhood, mothering, being mothered and yes, matriarchs. It’s also where our ideas around these roles can be set and cemented. When it comes to what we need to feel secure, nurtured and loved, these are human needs and identical for everyone. This week asks us to look at what it is to be an equal human being. Love is the power that transcends gender and tells us that underneath it all, we are all exactly the same spiritually.

In a nutshell:

We’re all equal on a soul level so how come this so often doesn’t happen in the physical world? This week brings up issues around equality and roles based solely on gender. Reach for some soul equality – or demand it now.

Journal Magic – Creating your future, healing your past

Journal Magic – Creating your future, healing your past

“In the journal I do not just express myself more openly than I could to any person; I create myself.” Susan Sontag

Journal magic is real! You may have noticed that many of the Tarot, psychic development and QC exercises I give you suggest you write in your journal. Journals serve a far greater purpose than just being the means to keep tracking of readings you do or your goals. They can be pure magic!

Regaining Faith

In ‘Diary,’ the motto really is: ‘Where Do You Get Your Inspiration?’ It coaches us to be aware of our motives and not just be a reaction to the circumstances around us. Chuck Palahniuk

It’s easy to lose faith in our goals and stop the work we need to do to attain them when they appear to be taking longer than we might like to manifest. Not only can our journals serve to remind us of how far we’ve come, they also keep us on track. They are a powerful tool for self-transformation too!

Yes, Bridget Jones had the right idea when she talked about ‘telling the truth about Bridget Jones’ in her diary. The great thing about keeping a journal is that is acts not just as a platform for us to vent about what is worrying us at a given time, but it also allows our imagination free-rein to come up with solutions for us as we engage the non-judgemental and creative parts of our brain. So let’s explore journal magic.

Journals the chronicles of our soul journey

“Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.” William Wordsworth

Journals form a chronicle of our soul journey here on Earth. How many of you who keep journals have gone back and re-read your journals months or even years later? What stands out for most people when they do this is that the problems and challenges they faced back then in their lives have been resolved or are just no longer issues for them.

We are also reminded to the goals we set ourselves and how they have either come about – or changed. When we re-visit the past in this way and re-read our entries, any problems or issues we may be facing in the present lose their power as our journals remind us of how far we have come, how we dealt with any issues back then and how they are no longer issues for us today.

We understand that no matter what may be happening now, we have the power deal with it and in time, no matter how bad things may seem right now, it will cease to be a problem for us – just like our old problems are today. So we can tap back into our strength.

Journals as a soul manual

 “Writing is medicine. It is an appropriate antidote to injury. It is an appropriate companion for any difficult change.” — Julia Cameron

If we face similar problems years later our journals show us the way forward. They let us know that the approach we used in the past didn’t work, and we must now try a new one.

They remind us that often letting time step in is the way forward. This can be anything from attaining a goal to solving a problem. A friend of mine told me about his journals and how he found an old one in the back of his desk one day. He re-read the list of goals he had made five years ago and realised every single one had come true – yet many seemed impossible at the time he made the entry.

Your Journal as a soul compass

“Journal writing, when it becomes a ritual for transformation, is not only life-changing but life-expanding.” — Jennifer Williamson

Our journals act as a soul compass allowing us to navigate into the future and make sense of our past. If you haven’t yet got into the practice of keeping a journal, or only use it for readings and goal-setting, then why not start a dialogue with your inner self via your journal today? A personal journal has been described as ‘Life’s companion’ and it really can be the friend that goes with us throughout our lives and like any best friend, reminds us of our victories, our strengths, and just how far we’ve come.

Written Weekly Astrology May 25th 2020 – Changes

Weekly Astrology Forecast for All Signs May 25 2020 with our astrologer Elena

 

Aries

Keep one eye on the details – the other on the prize!

Travel back to the past for new beginnings

Destiny driven decisions await

Ruler Mars and Ceres co-join in your 12th of soul secrets. Both angle to Uranus in your 2nd on the 25th. This could bring a shift around your cash. To your advantage I might add. Make sure you have a strong sense of your value, Aries. Which is what Uranus wants for you. Freedom is always its goal and this begins with knowing your true worth.

You Got the Power!

Grrl power rules in the sky this week no matter your gender. Mercury in its ruling 3rd meets up with gal pal Vesta in here. On many levels these two have a lot in common. Yes, it’s all in the details. There’s something being ironed out and refined here. Again, it needs to be fair. The details of that job? Your pay? Who does what? That idea? It’s time for both ownership and cooperation. And a new kind of equality.

The Node Knows

The Nodes are involved in all of this. Mercury meets the North Node in your 3rd on the 28th. Later that day it will enter your 4th bringing the focus down to your home and emotional and physical security. For now however, there’s a touch of karma at work. Your thoughts may turn to places visited in the past. Or you get important news from far away. Others may find themselves on a new path to learning, writing, speaking and communicating.

Look Back to Go Forward

Have you been here before? Does this feel familiar? What goes around comes around and could be linked to 2001-2003. Or further back still. What you negotiate this week could define your destiny. Now that’s valuable.

In a nutshell: Come from a place of sure self-worth if negotiating anything this week. What you say and stand for is linked to future progress, Aries. There’s a touch of destiny at work as doors open wide.

 

Taurus

Follow those friendship insights

What’s your money karma?

Write a new chapter in your abundance story

Friends or one particular friendship may feature this week, Taurus. Even at a social distance. You have Mars and Ceres remaining co-joined in Uranus’s ruling 11th. And they angle towards it in your 1st on the 25th. You may have had a feeling building one way or another about this connection for some time. This confirms it. Either way you’re either on the same page or you’re not.

Cash Up That Karma!

Let’s talk money karma. Yes, you and it have a story, a destiny to fulfil. Often our money story is linked to other people. Employers, partners, parents even yes, friends. We can inherit money karma from our families. Taking on their attitudes and ideas towards it. Which is all very well if you are a trust fund baby. Not so great if your parents lived pay cheque to pay cheque or on benefits street. This week tells you that your money story is yours and yours to re-write if needed.

Money Talks and had plenty to say

Do you feel powerful or dependent on others when it comes to money? Or feel inadequate in some way because you don’t earn as much as your friends? Mercury and Vesta meeting in your 2nd on the 26th can throw up all these issues. Come from a place of surety and self-worth now.

Join the New Rich List

This time has seen many of us re-evaluate our values. What matters and what money can and can’t buy us. Sometimes it’s the intangible things that make us feel truly rich. Love, friends, family, enjoying the outdoors, hobbies, our lifestyle. The 28th sees Mercury meet the North Node in here. You’ve an opportunity now to direct your abundance journey in a new direction.

It’s not what you have but how it makes you feel

You could change the story of how you relate to what you have. And what you believe you can have now. Again, this is your story and yours alone. And it’s not necessarily about how much money is in your account. New beginnings and fresh ideas lie ahead as Mercury enters its ruling 3rd later the same day. Use this to re-write your relationship with what you have – and what you now see you can achieve, Taurus.

In a nutshell: You, your money, possessions and your self-worth all have a story together. This week offers you the opportunity to author a new one if you don’t like how its panning out so far. Could you live happily ever after, after all?

 

Gemini

True self-worth is owning who you are

Silence those inner doubts

Time to succeed – on your own terms

If it’s your birthday this week, then you are being asked to own your power in the coming year, Gemini. Where are you holding yourself back? Are you still concerned what others may think of you if you follow those desires and dreams? Ditch the madness and embrace every part of you and consider this a gift to yourself. Above all, stop worrying about critics -or that inner critic for that matter.

Embrace the new daring!

There’s a new kind of success story to be written thanks to Mars and Ceres in your career zone angling to Uranus in your secretive 12th house. No more hiding who you are – or all you have to offer, Gemini. If you’re still worried about failing then remember, the only way to really fail is not to try in the first place. Go on, I dare you!

Become Your Own North Star

Ruler Mercury remains in your 1st and meets Vesta on the 26th. This could bring up issues around people pleasing. Or simply bending yourself out of shape to meet others expectations. That’s not loving. And certainly not self-love either. Just before Mercury heads off into your self-worthy 2nd on the 28th, it will meet the newly arrived North Node for the first time in 19 years.

This is an opportunity to reclaim your unique shining brightness. Especially if it’s been dulled by others. It’s an opportunity to define who you really are, Gemini. Not who others expect you to be. This birthday season is all about your story. So, don’t let anyone else author this for you.

In a nutshell: Time to own your magnificence, Gemini. No more living your life on other people’s terms. The only person’s approval you need now is your own. Follow through and head in the direction of the real you.

 

Cancer

Head in a fresh direction

Try something different

History does not have to repeat itself

This week marks a release into something bigger for you. This could eventually lead to travel. Or simply a chance to explore what lies outside that comfort zone (or is that a rut, Cancer?). Dare you leave this and discover what’s ‘out there’?

Opportunity Knocks!

Mars and Ceres remain conjunct in your take-a-chance 9th this week. And along with Uranus in its ruling 11th on the 25th, offer a path to freedom and learning. There’s so much to explore now. Yes, even from your couch. Understand that opportunity might look different to what you might have thought it would. But a different packaging could just add up to a different and better result.

The past is a place to learn from – not live

Don’t dwell too much on the past either this week. Yes, it may continue to feature due to the big line up in your 12th. As well as the heavy retro weather we’re in. However, avoid regrets if you can. What’s most important is that you don’t create new ones to add to the list. And believe me, we all have them.

Take what you’ve learned from your past choices. There’s an opportunity around you to make a new one. And in doing so release yourself from it. Taking a chance may feature. And it’s by taking chances we usually avoid ‘What if’s?’ when looking backwards.

It’s your right to choose!

Don’t dwell on what you think others may choose or expect you to choose. Mercury and Vesta in your 12th on the 26th and you your right to choose. Mercury meets the North Node in here on the 28th – hours before arriving in your 1st. This is all about releasing yourself from the past – history and yes, those regrets if you have any. The future starts here and you can take it in any direction you want it to go, Cancer.

In a nutshell: Learn from your past, but know you don’t have to repeat it, Cancer. Time to head towards the new, untried and unexplored. After all, if you choose the same thing, you’ll get the same result. Choose different.

 

Leo

Expand your karmic circle

Who helps you is returning the favour

Destiny means you don’t go it alone, Leo

Other people hold your destiny in their hands whether you know it or not, Leo. This important retro cycle is all about friendship revivals as well as making new ones. This also includes business and professional contacts and associations. Basically – be a joiner. Initiate contact. Explore new social scenes and circles. Even at a social distance.

Less than six degrees

If you can, step out of your usual network and connect to people from different professions and backgrounds. There’s usually less than six degrees between us and the person who can send our life in a new direction. Mars and Ceres remain together in Mars’s ancient ruling 8th. This week sees both align to Uranus which rules your friends and contacts as well as your future. This could lead to an unusual, unexpected yet important contact for you.

Karma is a Compass

Meanwhile in Uranus’s ruling 11th, retrograde Venus continues to link you back to past friendships. Mercury and Vesta meet in here on the 26th and expect attitudes to be exposed. The 28th places people in your path who have the capacity to influence your future. In ways you may not yet be able to fathom. Mercury meets the point of karma – the North Node in here. If you reconnect or meet someone now, this is fate at work.

Pay it forward

Karma may get paid forward if you receive help or assistance from people. Take it you did the same for them – a long time ago. Later the same day Mercury will enter your 12th of the soul, secrets and the past including past lives. Old friends and even old loves, could return now. And not just from this lifetime either.

In a nutshell: Who you know and who you meet now could influence your future in ways you may not think possible. It’s a week to connect and bridge the past and your future. Karma is the tie you share, Leo.

 

Virgo

No labels. No pigeonholes.

Make the world sit up and take notice

Set your status for the future

Status defining shifts may take place this week. This can affect your professional status, the title on your business card or even your status as in Mrs. or Mr. Single or settled. How you want or need to be seen and perceived by others and society in general. There’s also freedom from anything that has become confining or restrictive on offer too. If you feel you’re being pigeon-holed for instance.

Freedom is your gift

No matter which way the shift occurs, release is its intention. Also know that you are far, far more than simply a title. Mars and Ceres conjunct in your partnership sector angle across to Uranus in your sector of opportunity and expansion on the 25th. The terms around a key relationship – whether this is a professional one or a personal one, may shift now.

Find the balance point

Ruler Mercury sits in your 10th along with Venus retrograde in here. Let’s talk equality. Is anything skewed in favour of one side? If this is the case, the meeting between Mercury and Vesta on the 26th allows you to state your terms.

Showcase your destiny

The 28th could see you make that move. Or take a decision which has the world sitting up and looking at you in a new way. Mercury meets the North Node on this day. If you are old enough, think back to the years 2001-2003 as this could be linked to decisions which had an impact on this back then. Live all that potential now. Hours later, Mercury heads off into your social 11th. Time to spread the news, Virgo.

In a nutshell: How the world sees you may shift and change this week. Status setting moves for the future can be made now. This could affect your job title – or even a personal one. Yes, it’s how you are seen. But not who you are, Virgo.

 

Libra

Tick for wellbeing

Is there a big love you need to reclaim?

Destiny has a journey in mind

Bear in mind ruler Venus remains retrograde in your 9th. The house where most of this week’s action is happening, Libra. So, aside from re-exploring past loves, steer clear of new ones for now. There’s the possibility of a better job or simply a new way of ordering your day thanks to Mars and Ceres conjunct in your 6th. Both angle to the planet of invention and innovation, Uranus in your change sector. The smallest adjustments to your routine will have a big ripple effect now.

To Do is Feelgood Freedom

Pro tip: That feelgood factor comes from striking off those items on your ‘To do’ list. And in making one in the first place. Simply put, work smarter by going back to old school basics now.

Doing the work sets you free

Faraway places you have a deep connection with may call you. Even if you cannot travel there right now. Reexploring subjects which fascinate you and re-encountering those big loves are what Venus retro and Mercury in your 9th promise. The 26th has a Mercury and Vesta meet-cute. This could have a direct connection to those dull old daily tasks I mentioned. Innovate to liberate. And delegate if you feel you are expected to take on more than your fair share.

Back to New Beginnings

Look back now to 2001-2003 if you are old enough as Mercury aligns to the North Node on the 28th. Something which began back then could come full circle now. Or you are about to embark on a path destiny mapped out for you as fate is at work. Just hours later and Mercury arrives in your 10th of career and reputation. Time for serious discussions and agreements relating to your chosen vocation. You’ll be called on to deliver on what you say or promise now. Step up into the role you were always destined to play, Libra.

In a nutshell: Past loves include places, big dreams and experiences as well as people. Something could be resurrected or revisited in your life with fresh relevance, Libra. When it comes to working smarter however – have a list.

 

Scorpio

Love has many faces

State your terms for a new and better deal with someone

You need depth – in everything from conversations to connections

What is it you want to make or create this week, Scorpio? Just keep at the back of your mind that Venus which rules your love life, remains retrograde in your 8th. Of yes, ah-hem – sex and relationships where sex is important. Yes, ancient ruler Mars is asking where’s the heat and passion from your 5th. But unless you are content with simply flings being flung, try to steer clear of romance.

There’s so much more to love than romance

Mars and Ceres are still on their date in here and both invite Uranus, planet of excitement and thrills in your 7th to join them on the 25th. Reaching out to friends may give you that feeling of connection you’re seeking. Minus the potential for broken hearts. Or that ‘It’s complicated’ situation.

Do it with depth

As well as Venus retro and the Sun, you still have a big line up in your 8th. You won’t have time for the superficial now when it comes to anything from love to conversations. What you share with someone – joint assets, your home, mortgages, loans, maintenance payments, benefits, your salary or even the chores or who minds the kids, could shift and change. All down to the Mercury and Vesta meeting on the 26th. Does there need to be a new equality around any of these issues?

Sharing includes karma

Mercury moves off to meet the North Node in here on the 28th. Look back to 2001-2003 if you are old enough to see what you entered into with another back then. Chances are this is linked to that or represents a replay on some level. And it’s around not just shared money, home or time, but karma too.

What result do you want this time? Hopefully freedom to step out of a cycle. You’ll be able to attain this as just hours later Mercury arrives in your 9th. It’s a new world order baby. And you get to write the rules.

In a nutshell: New love stays on hold but old loves – especially the friendship variety, could provide the outlet you seek. Something you share with someone is up for negotiation. Aim for a different outcome.

 

Sagittarius

Leverage your ideas and resources

No regrets

Rebirths and new beginnings have their roots in your past

With your ruler retrograde in your 2nd and Venus retrograde in your 7th this is not the time to look for new love. Or enter into new financial arrangements for that matter. Also, keep an eye on your spending and avoid impulse buys. Instead use this time to work with what you have rather than what you may want.

Work with what you love

This may turn out to be more than what you think if you stop to do a talent stocktake. That side hustle or doing something original and unique to you? Mars and Ceres in your 4th take aim at Uranus in your daily work and duty sector. Uranus is all about turning things on their head and freeing you. A lightbulb moment? Entirely possible now.

Love moves with you so don’t look back!

Don’t spend too much time over regrets when it comes to past loves. Anything from ‘the one that got away’ to you not seeing the light sooner. Mercury and Vesta meet on the 26th and Mercury will meet the North Node in here on the 28th. Past partnerships and what was set in motion back in 2001-2003 could return. If not in person then in memory. Is there a pattern here? Look to significant events and relationships back then if you are old enough. This or they could return or reappear.

Evolve your heart

If so, time to ask if this is a missed opportunity coming back or something you no longer want to be involved with. Within hours of this encounter Mercury will arrive in your house of endings and rebirth. One way or another, you’re heading for a new beginning, Sag. Think of this as reflecting how your heart has evolved. That’s very different to the past simply repeating itself.

In a nutshell: It may not be time for new beginnings. But it is time to work what you have in new and frankly inventive ways, Sag. Something old could be set for new beginnings. History doesn’t have to repeat itself.

 

Capricorn

Say it anyway

Release restriction

Where does love take you from here?

Say it anyway this week, Capricorn. And don’t be afraid to suggest a solution that’s both daring and new. Mars in your 3rd has you walking your talk. And also making that talk the straight kind. You’re not in a mood to mince words. Ceres however is all about the compromise. Sometimes we have to lay our cards on the table or be honest about our feelings before we can reach that point.

Talk opens up the future

There could be a new way forward or even opportunity to promote yourself as both Mars and Ceres angle to Uranus in your 5th. Just remain mindful that Venus is retrograde in your 6th, Jupiter and Pluto in your 1st and ruler Saturn in your 2nd. And your ruler is heading back your way. It’s therefore a time for finishing touches, for conversations you may have bene putting off and to tie up loose ends.

Love – at least the future kind, is on hold still. Past loves may resurface however and if they do, it’s up to you where you take them from here. Mercury which rules your 6th of work, everyday responsibilities, routine and wellbeing, bumps into Vesta in here on the 26th.: Have you have taken on too much? Mercury meets the North Node in here on the 28th. So, if something needs releasing, this is a good time for that too. Especially if it confines, drains or effects the way you feel on any level.

Speak from your heart

Within hours of this, Mercury will arrive in your 7th. One to one conversations are now definitely on the table as could be talking about where you go from here. Speak your mind this week, Capricorn.

In a nutshell: The direct approach and speaking up could bring about a new understanding between you and another. Or break you free from restriction. Don’t be afraid to suggest a novel solution to an old issue.

 

Aquarius

Make this a love revival

What begins now could take you back to the past

Something old just got shiny and new again

Love may be on your mind but please remember that Venus which rules this, is retrograde in your 5th. Your house of romance. As well as ruling the true, heart-racing, forever kind of love, Venus also rules situations which fall under the category of ‘It’s complicated’. The likelihood of finding yourself in one or simply falling for someone who cannot and does not deliver over the long term, is high during a retro Venus cycle. Reviving creative projects, spending time with children or young people or even entertaining a past lover – all possibilities this week.

Is that a pigeon hole or a dovecote?

Mars and Ceres occupy Venus’s other ruling house – your 2nd. This week sees them angle across to ruler Uranus in your 4th. This could bring in a new source of income, better paying job or an opportunity to make yourself secure in some way. A little blue-sky thinking could be involved. Mercury remains in your 5th and still direct for now. Is someone expecting you to behave in a certain way? Conform to a stereotype for instance? Look closely as it bumps into Vesta in here on the 26th. Know the difference between a pigeon-hole and a beautiful dovecote that encloses you but still allows you to be you.

Love is the question, the answer and the future!

Mercury travels on to meet the North Node in here on the 28th and within hours of this will exit to enter its ruling 6th. News around children, adult children, god children, foster or adoptive children could take you back to 2001-2003. This could be linked to something you began then. Remember, a creative project is also your ‘child’ you give birth to. An old love could come full circle now as what was begun in the past, gives birth to something for your future, Aquarius.

In a nutshell: Past loves or events stemming from who or what you have loved in the past, could catch up with you in the present. Old flames could burn again – and more brightly a second time.

 

Pisces

Work that personal message

Was your role written for you by someone else?

Take the old – and begin anew with it

Don’t feel afraid to suggest frankly edgy solutions, pitch those innovative ideas or make that first move this week, Pisces. Mars and Ceres remain conjunct in your 1st. They angle to maverick Uranus in your 3rd on the 25th. It’s ‘Deal or No Deal’ played for real. This could involve your work, business, writing, publishing or the internet. It certainly involves you getting your point across or working your personal brand or message for everything it’s worth. Nobody got anywhere by underselling themselves. Remember that.

All work and no play

If you’ve been too focussed on the home, family or domestic matters lately, it may also be time to rectify that. By speaking out about this too if necessary. Mercury meets Vesta in your 4th on the 26th. There’s always an element of ‘keeping the home fires burning’ about Vesta. The Vestal Virgins had to watch the sacred flame in the temple and if they allowed it to go out, they were punished.

Life lived your way is a life fully lived

If you’re feeling taken for granted or that others simply expect you to do certain things, speak out. Where you are linked to, family karma, your roots, your home and even your homeland are themes triggered by Mercury’s meeting with the North Node on the 28th. Have you inherited other’s expectations around the role you play or lifestyle? This all reminds you this is your life to live. Extra time spent at home recently should have shown you just what that should be.

What is it that makes your soul grow?

Some however may feel the pull back to roots they thought they have severed long ago. Jump back in 19-year increments to discover what these are. Where you belong may in fact be linked to your past – even your childhood for some. The child within could re-awaken. It’s re-connecting to joy where soul growth lies. Don’t let anyone take this from you. Within hours of this Mercury will move off into your 5th. It could just be time for self-regeneration and being a kid again, Pisces.

In a nutshell: New avenues could open up around work or business. But when it comes to the place where you feel you most belong, the roots may go deeper than you thought. Head home to the past now.

Weekly Astrology Forecast for All Signs May 18 2020 – New Moon Magic
Aries

Don’t waste your energy

Take realistic steps towards future goals

One piece of news or idea sends you forward

Right now everything revolves around what you say or put out there or one piece of news, Gemini. The Sun and new Moon in your 3rd this week add up to five planetary bodies plus the North Node all in here. One of these being retrograde Venus of course. The Sun and new Moon will trine retrograde Saturn in your 11th of friends and future plans. So, expect what you say or what you hear to impact on these in some way. This new Moon always asks you to be thinking about what you want from life and to set ideas in motion. Saturn asks you be realistic however.

The 12th house/Venus retro energy around you right now will combine to awaken you if you have been living in a dream world about something or someone. If so, the truth will set you free and open your eyes. The day of the new Moon sees Mercury and retro Venus conjunct in Mercury’s ruling 3rd and squaring the ruler of your 12th – Neptune. The 24th will see ruler Mars and Ceres also meet in your 12th.

Your creative and intuitive abilities are at a peak now so please, don’t ignore your insight and also – conserve your resources. You may end up feeling you are being taken – or have been, advantage of. If so, take steps to ensure this does not continue. Others could realign past events with how things really were – and not how you were told or imagined them to be. Secrets could come tumbling out as could people re-emerging from your past. Look closely at whether there is a place for them in your future, Aries.

In a nutshell: One idea or one piece of news could dominate your week, Aries. Plan where you want to get to in the future. As for the past – you may see it or someone from it as they really are now.

 

Taurus

Relate to what you have in new ways

Money talks – what is it saying?

Because you’re worth it, Taurus

Money is one of the most complicated areas of our lives. And often the one we don’t talk about. With ruler Venus retrograde in its ruling 2nd and your money zone, plus the Sun, new Moon, Mercury, Vesta and the North Node in here this week, is it time to have a serious conversation about your relationship to your cash, Taurus? If only with yourself. Despite the major retrograde vibe in the sky, you have the opportunity to shore up that financial future as this week’s new Moon and the Sun trine retrograde Saturn in its ruling 10th on the 22nd.

New beginnings could stem from past efforts. Saturn is the task-master of the zodiac. The planet that sets us a tough learning curve. But when we ‘get’ the lesson, it rewards like no other planet. Financial improvements come from taking what you’ve learned on board and applying this.

The impact could be most felt with your sense of self-worth. Take it that this is and isn’t about how much (or little) you have in the bank account right now. But about feeling good about your talents, abilities and how you handle what you do have. Above all, look at whether you have felt obliged to keep up with friends or those you know when you can’t really afford to. Do you remember the episode of Friends when Rachel, Joey and Phoebe order tap water and a side salad in an up-market restaurant before being asked to split the bill equally? Or Jennifer Aniston’s character in Friends with Money?

Mercury and retro Venus meet on the 22nd and square Neptune in your 11th while Mars and Ceres meet in your 11th on the 24th. It’s all asking you about the need to keep up or maintain a certain front. If that’s you – time for that conversation about money, Taurus. It can bring about a change you can bank on if you dare to have it.

In a nutshell: Let’s talk about your worth, Taurus. It’s a week to have a conversation about not just money, but your relationship to all that you have. That includes everything you have to offer. Don’t under-value it.

 

Gemini

Revive the dream

Know where you want to get to in the next 12 months

Happy birthday, Gemini!

Happy birthday, Gemini. It’s a birthday cycle like no other for you thanks to five planetary bodies in your sign this week plus the North Node. One of these being retrograde Venus and your ruler (still direct), Mercury. Your birthday takes place against the backdrop of major retrograde weather however. So, there’s a feeling of looking back to move forward again not just for all of us, but for you especially.

The new Moon in your 1st on the 22nd will trine retrograde Saturn in your 9th. This is the same day as ruler Mercury and retro Venus meet and square Neptune in your 10th. There’s a double question being asked here. The answers to which lie in your past. Who do you want to be and where do you want to get to? This applies over the next 12 months. Above all, look at what you started but then abandoned. Or tune in and listen to those soul messages this week. They are telling you which direction to head in for the future.

This new Moon is all about initiating something. A goal or desire that is intensely personal. Once you know what this is, follow through with confidence. Mars and Ceres meeting in your 10th of career, public image and rewards bring the promise of a better path to success if you take that first step towards it. Breakthrough moves could be made now as you plan to rule the world from your couch. Or at least begin from there! It’s time to try a fresh approach with work and career matters. Only that new you could come up with it, Gemini. Dare to reinvent a dream this birthday season.

In a nutshell: Happy birthday, Gemini! Time to revive a long-held dream. And to know who you want to be, how you want to be seen and where you want to get to in the coming year. Start a personal revival program this week.

 

Cancer

Get a reality audit

You can’t change the past – but people can change

The No word could be your new best friend

Your annual soul house clearing which occurs every year during the month before your birthday, has an intense past-tense flavour to it this year. You not only have Jupiter and Pluto retrograde in your partnership zone. But also Venus retrograde in your 12th which rules your past. You of all signs should steer clear of new love or partnership ventures now as chances are the person may not be what they appear to be.

Seeing things and people for what they are is one element of your 12th house and also this major retrograde cycle. The Sun arrives in here on the 20th and we have a new Moon in here on the 22nd which will trine realistic and pragmatic Saturn retrograde in your 8th. This is a reality check around a person or situation.

Being able to use the ‘No’ word is your key to freedom now as Mercury and retro Venus align and square Neptune in your 9th. For some, this transit can deliver someone from your past. Use that reality check to see whether they have really changed if this is what they claim. Mars and Ceres also meet in your 9th this week. Which is where saying no may come in. If someone you know replays a cycle but never learns from it, sometimes saying no can help them the most. Yes, you are someone people can lean on, Cancer. Just ensure this week you’re not leaning to the point of falling over.

In a nutshell: Saying the N0 word is an act of love this week, Cancer. Especially self-love. If saying it is overdue, setting boundaries leads to release from a situation that simply goes round and round. So, say yes to no this week.

 

Leo

Discover new meaning in old connections

What’s that hidden story around money?

Love may be on hold but friendships revive

Changes around friendships or one particular friend, people you know and also those long-term goals and visions will be highlighted for you this week, Leo. Ruler the Sun arrives in your 11th on the 20th. Joining Mercury, Venus retrograde, Vesta and the North Node in here.

The new Moon in here on the 22nd trines retrograde Saturn in your partnership sector. While on this same day, Mercury meets retro Venus and squares Neptune in your house of changes and rebirth. Old friends and contacts could re-emerge under this influence. Or you may suddenly become aware that the old resonance you once felt towards someone or even a group, is no longer there for you.

Just remember, with the planet of love backwards, this is not the time to start a new love affair even with PPE equipment! And avoid any situation that could come under ‘It’s complicated’. Getting the band back together for the future however – very much in focus whether it’s your group of friends or even old activity partners as outdoor rules relax. Some of those who return could have new meaning. Hidden undercurrents around something you share with someone else – and again, this could be a partner, could come to light now and demand you deal with them.

Is someone calling the shots simply on the basis they have more cash? Your 8th is about money secrets. What we don’t talk about. Time to buy out of power dynamics around money as Mars and Ceres meet on the 24th in what is Mars’s ancient ruling house in your chart. Saying the buck stops here could be just the change you need to initiate.

In a nutshell: Friends, groups, clubs, bands and associations feature. Old friends could reappear with fresh relevance. There’s also secrets to be explored along with the simply power of the ‘N0’ word!

 

Virgo

Get some soul immunity

Love is in the details – as is success

Be open-minded if the past reappears now

Time to do the work this week as the Sun arrives in your 10th. This week peaks the focus on this house with the Sun, new Moon, ruler Mercury, Venus retrograde, Vesta and the North Node all in here on the 22nd. Saturn is the ruler of this house and sits in your other work sector – your 6th. It is also heading backwards at present and is trined by the new Moon and Sun. This could well revolve around an increased focus on your wellbeing, taking better care of your body and what I like to call Soul Immunity.

Boosting that immune system by focussing on the foods, routines and activities/people that energise you rather than drain you. This is classic Virgo. You got this.

Remember, with Venus retrograde in any house in your chart, this simply isn’t a good time to begin a new love affair. Even at a social distance or with a Hazmat suit. Does the work you need to do include putting some extra effort into that existing relationship? People from your past may get in touch this week. And you may have mixed feelings about this. However, don’t jump to conclusions as ruler Mercury meets retrograde Venus and aspects Neptune in Venus’s ruling 7th. This week asks for open-mindedness and also not expecting to get your own way. Especially when it comes to love or even close working relationships.

Mars and Ceres meet in your 7th on the 24th. Avoid an ‘my way or the highway’ approach unless you are happy to go it alone. It’s cooperation, diplomacy and deal-making that wins you hearts and minds this week, Virgo. Success lies in the details so simply do the work.

In a nutshell: You’ve an opportunity to build on past efforts and impress this week, Virgo. Be seen as someone who delivers. Whether it’s professionally or in love, time to forge a win/win solution for success.

 

Libra

Forge a practical everyday escape plan

Travel back to a past love

Revitalise that routine

You want something new and to escape your usual routine this week, Libra. It’s all down to the Sun and then the new Moon in your 9th. However, as we all know, most of us are confined to home or at the most, familiar territory. Travelling however could include learning, the armchair kind such as planning that future trip – especially to somewhere you have been in the past as the ruler of your 9th house Jupiter is also retrograde now. As is your ruler Venus in here. So, if that restlessness you are feeling has you thinking that love may be the answer, unless it is a past love, take it from me that it isn’t. Sorry.

You could however be drawn back to people, places, ideas or even subjects that captured your imagination in the past as the Sun and new Moon trine Saturn in your 5th on the 22nd. As well as Jupiter retrograde, the North Node could see you returning to a country you have visited in the past over the next 1.5 years, a course of study or even people from overseas you have known in the past getting back in touch.

As far as escaping that routine goes, you have a free pass thanks to Mercury which rules your 6th but meets retro ruler Venus in your 9th also on the 22nd. Both angle to Neptune in your 6th. Don’t fall prey to escapism – binge watching, that lovely bottle of Sav Blanc, too much internet shopping for instance. But take practical steps instead to vary anything and everything in your daily routine especially around how you exercise and what you eat.

Mars and Ceres meet in here on the 24th and you may suddenly make that ‘You are what you eat and also what you do’ connection. Sure, love of the romantic kind may be on hold. But a little love shown to those mundane tasks and habits you take for granted, could result in a more passionate everyday experience for you now, Libra. How’s that for an escape plan?!

In a nutshell: You want something new. Something exciting that takes you away from that everyday dullness. Traveling back to a past love is possible. While passion releases you from that rut, Libra.

 

Scorpio

Give your inner wisdom a voice

Explore your desires

Time for transformation

Yes, you have your ancient ruler Mars fabulising you in your 5th house this week. It also meets Ceres in here on the 24th. You could want to make a little love or create something special. Either with someone or in the form of a project, activity or creative venture. Mars turns up the heat and passion while Ceres is about new worlds, planting seeds for the future. Just remember however that Venus which rules your love life is retrograde in your 8th now.

So, existing and past loves should be your focus, not potential ones. You are able to go deeply into relationship issues now. You want to know what makes your partner tick. If you have no partner, you’ll emerge from this intense cycle with a far better understanding of what you need in a relationship for the future.

The 20th sees the Sun arrive in your 8th and a new Moon in here on the 22nd. This will trine Saturn in your 4th which could mark taking a turning point in an existing relationship for some of you. Mercury meets retrograde Venus in here on the same day and both of them nudge at Neptune also in your 5th.

If you have been closing your eyes to your true feelings around someone or something, this could very well open them for you. Planets in your 8th – and this week you have a total of five astral bodies plus the North Node in here, always add up to that still small voice inside you telling you it is time for a change. Tune in and listen to it now and above all, avoid contact with negative people and soul drains. Time to transform a key area or relationship, Scorpio. You know now what needs to be done. And you have the confidence to do it.

In a nutshell: You’ve an intense desire to know what makes your partner tick. Or explore the secrets of your own heart, Scorpio. Follow that inner voice to the truth. You know what needs to change now.

 

Sagittarius

Put a ring around unfinished love business

Relate to your needs in new ways

There’s a reason and this is the season to understand that, Sag

The Sun’s arrival in your 7th always highlights love and partnership matters for you, Sag. This year however, this isn’t about the new. Not just yet anyway. Venus which rules this house in your chart is retrograde in here. Plus, you have your ruler Jupiter retrograde in your other Venus-ruled house – your 2nd. So, despite the new Moon in here on the 22nd this isn’t about new relationships but relating in new ways to past and present ones.

The potential for past lovers or simply important people from your past, to reappear is highly likely now as the Sun and new Moon both trine Saturn also retrograde in your 3rd. If there is unfinished business between you, then they could be returning to balance the books in some way as Saturn and also the North Node, rule your karma.

Mercury also in here conjuncts retrograde Venus also on the 22nd with both nudging Neptune in your 4th. Mars is also currently in your 4th. Not an easy position for Mars as it is about action and this is a house of being and feeling rather than doing. You could be chafing at lockdown restrictions for instance. Get outdoors for socially distanced exercise if you can.

Female family members may feature as could powerful women as Mars meets Ceres in here on the 24th. Women hold the power here especially as you also have Vesta in your 7th right now. No matter what gender you personally identify with, it’s all about the power of the divine feminine and possibly matriarchal energy too. There’s a new balance to be struck here this week. Between what you need to do out there in the world and your need for quiet, nurturing and contemplation. You need a partner who understands your need for both, Sag. This may not be the season for new love, but it is one to embrace what you need right now.

In a nutshell: Love may appear to be on hold. But that simply isn’t the case, Sag. While it’s not time to embark on anything new, there’s never been a better one to relate to the love you have in new ways.

 

Capricorn

Show that daily routine some love

Focus on your mind/body/spirit connection

Small adjustments lead to big benefits

Work, routine and wellbeing matters could dominate your week. As could your pets if you have any. This week marks the Sun’s arrival into your 6th of daily responsibilities, ideas and fine details. It’s time to focus on the here and now. To hone in on facts and to be organised and practical. The new Moon in here on the 22nd bumps up the number of astral bodies in here to five plus the North Node (Sun, Moon, Mercury (which rules this house), retrograde Venus and Vesta (which rules daily duty).

Retrograde Venus means that romantic love is on hold for now. But in here this allows you to show that routine some much-needed love and enhance it in new and creative ways along with the new Moon. This new Moon also trines ruler Saturn also retrograde in Venus’s ruling 2nd. This could deliver a long-awaited improvement in your cash for some. While others may take steps to invest in ways that enhance their diet, exercise regimen or mind/body/spirit connection.

Mercury is still heading forwards so if part of your daily upgrade includes applying for a new job, then push forward with this but again, be organised and ensure you clearly define your experience, talents and skills to a prospective employer. Mercury will meet retrograde Venus in here on the same day as the new Moon. Both will nudge Neptune in Mercury’s other ruling house – your 3rd. This is not a time to waffle, be vague or undersell yourself. Refine your pitch or your plan.

Lucky for you, Mars is also in your 3rd ensuring you follow up what you say with the confidence to see it through. It meets Ceres in here on the 24th which could bring you the results or news you were hoping for. Extra effort pays dividends this week. Be it simply doing something different or breaking free of that rut – once and for all. Even in isolation, you have the capacity to initiate big changes in small ways.

In a nutshell: Shake yourself free and embrace the feel-good factor this week, Capricorn. At the heart of this is your mind/body/spirit connection. Tiny improvements in work or wellbeing pay off big time now.

 

Aquarius

Let your inner child out to play

Recapture lost love

Big decisions come easy

Despite the Sun’s arrival in your shamazing 5th house of all things romantic, this is still not the time to go looking for love, Aquarius. Even at a distance. The reason being that Venus remains retrograde in here this week. Time instead to reconnect to past loves. If you have children or young people around you, you may do this via them and getting in touch with your inner child once again.

Taking up a hobby or pastime you used to love to do is one way to recapture lost love – and heal your inner child in the process. Don’t let anyone tell you that you should have outgrown it by now. Sometimes we just have to put adulting on hold for a while. The new Moon in here on the 22nd trines retrograde Saturn in your 1st. This simply tells you that you are never too old. And who are ‘they’ to tell you what to do anyway?

Others may see a past love return in person as Mercury in here conjuncts retrograde Venus and angles to Neptune in your 2nd – which Venus also rules. Be cautious when it comes to money however. Ruler Uranus in your 4th sextiles Ceres also in your money zone on the 20th. This could bring in a job offer or way to enhance your future for some of you. The 24th sees Ceres and Mars meet in here. Look at what is on the table from all angles before jumping in. But once you’re sure – go for it. Yes, you can make those big grown-up decisions and kid about too. You know which one to do and when this week.

In a nutshell: You know when to be serious – and also when not to, this week. Past loves in the form of things you loved to do could feature. Don’t sweat the small stuff this week. Pro tip: It’s all small stuff.

 

Pisces

Get that sense of belonging

Revisit the past to see how you need to live in the future

Put down roots

Home, family, where you live, who you live with, renting, leasing, buying and selling property, your roots and where you feel is your ‘No place like it’ is in focus thanks to the slew of planetary activity in your 4th house this week. The Sun arrives in here on the 20th. This day could bring important news of a contract, deal, offer or sale thanks to Uranus in your 3rd angling to Ceres in your 1st as restrictions ease.

The new Moon in its ruling 4th on the 22nd could reveal to you what it is you truly need in order to feel secure as it trines retrograde Saturn in your 12th. There’s a past flavour to all of this also due to Venus retrograde in here. Some of you may be contemplating a move back somewhere linked to your past. Family secrets could also come tumbling out of closets. Long lost relatives or roommates get back in touch. While there may be discussions around the future for an older relative.

It’s not the time to be embarking on a new love affair with Venus retrograde in any house. If you love where you live, show it the love by updating it. Property matters which have been delayed could move ahead for you at last as Mercury and retro Venus meet on the 22nd. Just ensure you read the fine print in any contract or agreement carefully.

This week also sees Mars and Ceres meet in your 1st. Mars is all about energy, movement and action. Ceres is about female power so female family members or even employers could play a role; the divine feminine and reaping what you sow. Want to put down roots? Relocate? This week hands you the ability to initiate new living arrangements. Get a sense of place and belonging this week, Pisces.

In a nutshell: Home, family, who you love with, where you live and what unpins your sense of security are your focus this week. Now, click your heels together and repeat after me: There’s no place like home.
