Aries March 21-April 19: This month is going to be loaded with opportunities for you to reinvent yourself. With your ruler (Mars) now dignified in Scorpio and with the Sun, Jupiter and Mercury all moving through your 5th house, it should also be a month filled with energy, drive and passion. This is the time to show the rest of the world what you’re made of none of this lollygagging around or couch potato stuff for you. If you’re single, the world very well may be your playground. And if you’re not, use these transits to rev up your existing relationship. Mars in Scorpio is passionate if nothing else (but trust me, it’s never “nothing else”). This transit is also good for investing money, but hold off on that in the first week or so, as a hard aspect to Mercury and Jupiter could have you feeling just a little too confident and overdoing it. It’s not the time to take risks financial or otherwise. Venus moves into your romance sector on the 12th and catches up with Jupiter on the 18th. This should be a stellar week for you in the love and romance departments. But why limit yourself? Aside from a minor hiccup on the 26th, you should be able to milk these transits for all they’re worth, right through to at least the end of the month.

Moon in Aries: Aug 13, 14 and 15

Taurus April 20-May 20: All you want right now is some peace and quiet: a sort of respite from the intense focus on your career and professional aspirations over the last several months. With your ruler (Venus) now in Cancer and a part of a beautiful grand water trine between Saturn and Chiron, it almost looks like you’re going to get it. This aspect is all about going with the flow and striving for harmony particularly with respect to the people in your life: friends, neighbors / siblings and relationship partners. It’s about aligning yourself with others, being on the same page and bringing your social interactions into balance. And as stated before, it’s this close to happening. But along comes Mars barreling through your relationship sector and forming stressful aspects to a lineup of planets in the area associated with home. What this means for you is a week or so of navigating potential land mines: a partner who thinks you’re not spending enough time at home; an adult family member behaving like a child; a child getting too big for his britches that kind of thing. It’s only a week or so, then it’s back to smoother sailing, with things becoming decidedly more pleasant on the homefront after the 12th. Relationships are still going to be testy, especially between the 25th and 27th. Take the time to resolve the issues that are brewing there now, as they’re not going to just go away on their own.

Moon in Taurus: Aug 15, 16 and 17

Gemini May 21-June 21: You should be in fine form this month, doing what you do best: keeping yourself super busy. Your ruler (Mercury) has just moved into your 3rd house (the natural Gemini sector) joining in with two other high-energy planets, the Sun and Jupiter. While you may get off to a bumpy start thanks to a stressful Mars transit that can also propel you forward toward achieving your goals. Work is a big focus for you now. Work as in “self-improvement whether that’s on the job or in your own personal life. The Mars in Scorpio moving through your work sector can act as a big motivator. But it’s not the time for taking physical risks. The Mercury / Jupiter / Mars square can manifest as an accident or confrontation with a loved one. Use some of that excess energy to take care of projects around the home, especially after the 13th when Mercury moves into your 4th house. The New Moon on the 25th takes place in this area too just as Mars catches up to Saturn. You may have to juggle responsibilities during this time, but if anyone can do that successfully it’s you. Think of it as an opportunity to funnel some of your frustrations into the completion of an actual project. Work and Home are featured then so try to put some time in on both.
