The Last Quarter Moon in Cancer on Monday often brings emotional concerns that require an extra bit of nurturing and understanding. This is a good time to rest as our moods tend to be withdrawn or especially hypersensitive. This is an excellent Moon to boldly examine and courageously drop emotional baggage, resentments, grudges and any other types of emotional complications that are no longer serving a purpose. This is a good time to practice patience and to lend a listening ear. However, don’t get caught up allowing others to bend your ear if you feel like they are being manipulative or wasting your precious time. In group situations, it is wise to be patient and to practice a kind and cool composure.
Venus trine Pluto is certainly exciting with fate, power, love and intensity at work this week. This aspect represents a love or fascination occurring with regard to the work of fate as well as power. Venus in Virgo emphasizes our love for cleanliness, purification and good health practices and while Venus is trine to Pluto, there is a strong appeal among the various generations and among influential powers to apply more care and effort to organize and implement greater health practices. Venus trine Pluto allows a breakthrough to occur for those who have trouble accepting the work of fate. This aspect allows loving energy to flow more easily between generations. Love triumphs over all, especially with Venus trine Pluto.
Mercury is sextile Pluto until Thursday. This aspect brings an opportunity for us to get the message across to people in strong positions of power and authority. Mercury is in Scorpio, focusing discussions on matters of birth, sex, death and transformation. Pluto in Capricorn is forcing us to acknowledge our resources and to use them wisely. Mercury in Scorpio deals with the hidden nature of power controllers and their propensity to distort the facts. This is an opportunistic time to reach out to those of another generation and make an attempt to communicate something vital.

Free Weekly Horoscope for your Sign
Aries (19 March – 19 April) Element: Fire Planet: Mars Symbol: Ram Stone: Ruby
Aries: When people built castles in the olden days, they made the walls incredibly thick and strong. They needed to keep out intruders. People no longer build castles, but as individuals we still build psychological walls. As Saturn begins his long journey through your psychological wounding zone, it may be very cathartic if you can begin to take down, brick by brick, the walls that you have built around your heart. Understand that you put them there to protect yourself from hurt, but that now you are strong enough to allow yourself to be vulnerable again and to gently release any sadness that has accumulated over the years.
Taurus: Have you been pushing yourself too hard? Are you suffering from tiredness or even exhaustion? Is your body protesting or grumbling via aches and pains and a lack of energy? If so, you need to focus on getting yourself back into good shape and directing some loving care to your physical well-being. Perhaps all that’s needed is a shifting of your priorities from work and duties to fun and enjoyment. Remind yourself that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." You shouldn’t need a reason or an excuse to enjoy yourself, so start by thinking of all the things you can do that will put a spring in your step.
Gemini (20 May – 20 June) Element: Air Ruling Planet: Mercury Symbol: Twins Stone: Aquamarine
Gemini: It’s time to sort yourself out. That’s what Saturn who has arrived on your doorstep and found things a bit lacking, is saying. The first area of concern is probably your health. Maybe it’s time to get yourself in better shape, to improve your diet or lifestyle. Also ripe for change is your work or the way you spend your days. Don’t be afraid to let go of old habits and situations that aren’t doing you any favors. Once you start moving, you’ll be amazed at how quickly things will change. Lighten up a little this week and engage in activities that make you feel good to be alive. In fact, this on its own can have an instant impact on your health since happy hormones have more of a healing effect than all the diets in the world. Do what you love and you will find that everything else will fall into place.
Cancer (20 June – 22 July) Element: Water Planet: Moon Symbol: Crab Stone: Moonstone
Cancer: Is your life an honest expression of who you are? Do you spend your days doing what you love? Do you have a clear sense of your identity and what makes you happy? These are the questions currently being posed by the Universe. If you feel in any unfulfilled, look into yourself to get a clearer sense of what you need to be happy. Don’t be afraid to start making one or two changes this week so that you can live a more creative life.
Leo (22 July – 22 August) Element: Fire Planet: Sun Symbol: Lion Stone: Peridot
Leo: This is the week when things begin to change and you may even begin to gain a new lease on life. It is also the time when you can begin to make or expect changes within your personal life, from changes in the family to alterations within your home or with where you are living. You would also benefit from taking the time to go within to clear out one or two deep rooted issues especially issues connected with loss or with not feeling good enough. Many Leos wear masks of authority and confidence, but in many cases this is to protect a fragile ego. Try to get to your true source of confidence which is located in your heart and not in the external things you have built up around you.
Virgo: This the perfect time to indulge in whatever pleasure takes your fancy. Your confidence is likely to be on the rise and makes you more able to seize the possibilities that are currently available to you. Saturn is providing a special job for you –weeding out any limiting beliefs that stop you from enjoying a full and abundant life, so watch out for any feelings of loneliness, discouragement or isolation, as these could be clues that you have some work to do. These feelings may be signals that something is amiss internally, but by becoming aware of these feelings, you can begin to determine where they are coming from which is the first step toward healing them.
Libra (22 September – 22 October) Element: Air Planet: Venus Symbol: Scales Stone: Opal
Libra: It’s time to heave an almighty sigh of relief as Saturn bid you farewell on Saturday (October 6). The departure of Saturn signals a sense of completion and an easing up of life’s trials. His journey through your sign during the past couple of years may have pushed you to your limit at times, and although you’re probably a much stronger person for all that you’ve been through, you are now being given a much needed prescription for fun, pleasure and relaxation. However, it is also the time to take control of your material world, perhaps by making the most of your gifts and abilities –remembering, of course, to have plenty fun while you’re busy manifesting.
Scorpio (22 October – 21 November) Element: Water Planet: Pluto Symbol: Scorpion Stone: Topaz
Scorpio: Are you ready for the next big phase in your life? Saturn’s entry into your sign at the end of last week signifies the beginning of a turning point, perhaps a time of completion and the start of a new chapter. This week would be a good time to give some serious thought to how you want your life to be. Any area that you feel unhappy about has the potential to be changed, and it will become increasingly easier to manifest exciting new beginnings. Of course, all this won’t be without hard work, but if anyone’s up to the job, it’s you, Scorpio. Keep in mind that the more effort you put in now, the greater the rewards will be in the future.
Sagittarius (21 November – 21 December) Element: Fire Planet: Jupiter Symbol: Archer Stone: Turquoise
Sagittarius: Mars blazes into your sign on Sunday, giving you the energy and motivation to initiate projects and move forward with your goals, plans and ambitions. At the very least, you’ll find you’ve got the get up and go to do more things in a day than most other people manage in a week. Saturn in the soulful area of your chart will impress on you the need to confront those things that you might have conveniently forgotten about, whether that’s tying up loose ends, releasing suppressed emotions, or closing a door on the past. All this will help with your energy level and desire to begin new things.
Capricorn: Jupiter moves retrograde in your 6th Room of Health. This will greatly affect your health or physical body, especially if you step out of alignment with your Higher Self. Therefore, make the commitment this week that you will be above board in all aspects of your life. If you are not, in any of a number of ways, your health may be impacted, for Jupiter moves retrograde in the sign of Gemini (relationships) taking you back to the past, back to your old behaviors and ways pertaining to relationships. Recognize when your old habits and ways resurface then use your power to adjust yourself.
Aquarius (20 January – 18 February) Element: Air Planet: Uranus Symbol: Water Bearer Stone: Amethyst
Aquarius: Think about trips you want to take, places you want to visit and studies you want to delve into. You may also find yourself thinking about friends, the people you work with and upcoming social events. The next three months are a heavy social time of gathering with family, friends, coworkers, new people entering your life and a time of gathering with old friends from your past. In order to accomplish all that you want, you need to make sure your means of transportation is in tip top shape. Is it time for a tire rotation or oil change? This week, take the time to check things out to make sure everything is in order with your personal vehicle. It will save you a bunch of aggravation in the weeks ahead.
Pisces (18 February – 19 March) Element: Water Planet: Neptune Symbol: Fish Stone: Bloodstone
Pisces: Love continues to be strong and uplifting for you as a reflection of a very strong person in your circle of life. Remember to do your part in nurturing and strengthening the relationship as it takes two to make things harmonious. You continue to be in a cycle of listening and learning. You do know lots, but there is much more to learn and know. One of the ways to have true happiness and balance is to know when to be quiet and listen. When you witness an untruth or incorrect statement through another, just pull back and allow that person to correct him/herself. At this time, it is not your job to correct another. Just pull back, listen and learn.
