August 2006: Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

August

Overview. All month, the Sun shines its light on your work and health sector. You take more pride in the work you do and in your health routines than any other time of the year. You are sorting through the experiences of the last several months, separating the worthwhile from the worthless. This is a good time to build your skills, to get organized, and to attend to your health and wellbeing. It’s a great time to make improvements to your regular routines. Your self-esteem and your ego are tied up in the work you do and in the services you give. You may be drawn into some form of service that will bring deep personal satisfaction. At this time, you seek perfection and distinction in your work and this quality bring you a more responsible position. This cycle presents an opportunity to get rid of what doesn’t work in your life, while also discovering what does. More than any time of the year, you are conscious of your mental and physical health, daily routines, everyday working life, and your working methods. If your regular routine doesn’t provide you satisfaction now, you need to look at where you can make improvements without obsessing over, or getting bogged down with, details.

Mercury picks up speed after a period of retrogradation in July. Problems involving romance, speculation, entertainment, children, partnership, and family or home issues are resolved for the most part early this month, particularly after the 4th. You can become more confident about decision-making with regards to love affairs, children, property and home issues, family affairs, and partnerships or contracts.

Work and health are the major arenas of your life that are in focus now. This month, you’re challenged to separate fact from fiction, particularly with regards to a co-worker or job situation. Feeling blocked by others feels real but is actually temporary. If youve been on the fence about pursuing a love interest, the last week of August is a good time to do so. You may be inspired to create better health habits, or to begin a new diet or fitness regimen.

August is a heavy, active month for your ruler, Neptune. Neptune opposes heavyweight Saturn, and forms three oppositions this month: to the Sun, Mercury, and then Venus. In many areas of your life, you are now dealing with culminations. On the 6-7 (as well as at the time of the Full Moon on the 9th), work conditions or issues come to a head. Perhaps you’re completing one job or project and moving on, or a job situation that has been building for some time reaches a head and something has to be done about it. Alternatively, this could play out with your health. A new discovery about your health, or a realization that you have to take attention to your health in your hands, can come now. You could also cement an important job, join a gym, or get news from the doctor. Pressures that have been building surface now and need to be dealt with. Around the 20th, similar events surface surrounding close partnerships. You may have been feeling some pressure from a partner or family member, and now is the time when you have to confront it and begin to deal with it. You may also receive important information today. Intimate and personal matters are brought up on the 26-27. Creative projects or romantic affairs need your attention.

Take charge of your health on the 6-7, and focus on new health regimes. As well, do what you can to improve your working conditions this month, or the cosmos will force you to do it. Pressures on the job are getting to you this month, and it’s time to formulate a plan for dealing with the responsibilities, but also for taking time to tend to your spiritual growth and needs for relaxation and peace of mind. Treat whatever issues that pop up for you in August as a heads-up rather than a setback.

Now for the best part: your co-ruler, Jupiter, trines electric Uranus in the last week of the month. You may find opportunities to enhance your happiness and luck through some sort of travel or movement. Your intuition is good, and your foresight is clearer than usual. You benefit from breadth of vision and a forward-looking disposition now.

Tricky days for finances occur on the 1-6, 12-14, 19-21, 23-25, and 28-30. Avoid speculation or new financial initiatives on these days. Partners may be especially involved with your own financial picture this month. The 12-14 is a red-flag period for you in terms of finances as well as partnerships. Opposition to your plans is likely, and some kind of disruption is probable. Expect the unexpected. The 28-30 could involve some minor loss or problem monetizing a project. You may discover that you don’t have enough money for a vacation, or that you spent far more than you had hoped on one. An excellent period for your personal finances occur on the 7-9, when you could see gains, particularly from your business or career, and even an in-law or grandparent. The 31st is also a good day for finances, and on the 24th, a partner could gain money.

Watch for an important heads-up around the 9th with regards to love affairs. Some tensions and adjustments are necessary in the first week of the month. A new beginning around the 23rd breathes some fresh air into your partnerships. The 24th and 31st are excellent days for you to attract a committed relationship, or to enhance an existing one.

Excellent days for scheduling job interviews, joining a gym, or for scheduling health appointments and medical visits occur on the 16-17 and the 31st. On the 9th, you need to face a few realities about your job or your state of health. It could be a tricky time, but ultimately liberating. Perhaps you realize that your job is less than ideal, for example, but the realization that you need to do it right comes at the same time. Excellent career prospects and opportunities for advancement and recognition occur on the 7-8 and in the last week of the month.

This month, Saturn opposes Neptune across your sixth and twelfth house axis. This tricky opposition is activated by the Full Moon on the 9th, by Mercury on the 20-21, and by Venus on the 26-27. You experience a clash between reality and your ideals and dreams, particularly with regards to your work, daily routines, and both your spiritual and physical health. You may become very demanding and critical of others, particularly those you deal with on a daily basis, those you serve, and those who serve you—or, more likely, they are demanding of you. Painful memories may surface that need to be dealt with, and fears and insecurities may not be based on realistic expectations. Since you set your goals for success far out of reach these days, you are likely to “fail” (at least in your eyes) during this time. It is difficult for you to separate fact from fiction, and you may feel that you are going through a “reality shift.” Fears and anxieties may be overwhelming at times, but remember that things are certainly not as bad as they seem. There can be a feeling of being drained by the demands (or even the lack of demands) of others, or frustrated because your work demands something concrete and secure, and you are not clear in terms of what you want. This feeling of being drained is experienced by all, but for you, your work, service, and health are the likely arenas where this influence will play out. This can also be an important month for your friendships and your sense of style and self-expression, also coming under the rule of Saturn and Neptune. Burdens, responsibilities, separations, or the need to mature quickly are things you are dealing with now in these life departments. The best way to handle this is to develop a workable plan for tending to your needs for job security as well as support from friends or from your community. Maturation is in order, and if you can think in terms of “building” slowly but surely, you will feel more grounded and realistic.

Jupiter trines Uranus in the last week of August. This transit is known for being lucky, and always brings something unexpected, and it’s especially good for you, as Uranus is on your Sun. You could have new opportunities presented to you, seemingly from out of nowhere, such as a chance to travel or for higher learning, a business or job opportunity, a sudden windfall, money from the blue, or a chance meeting with someone who opens your mind or contributes to your success. A chance to get away from it all may be part of the picture. Whatever it is, it will require immediate action on your part and it will probably be a wild departure from your norm. You may come up with innovative ideas that can be put into practice at a later time. You may find luck, ease of working conditions, and general good fortune coming through your social, business, and professional life. Honors, favors from superiors, public appointments, esteem and eventual social and financial success are all possible now.

Romantic Venus warms your romance and pleasure sector until the 21st. During this cycle, the areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through a genuine love of life, especially in romantic attachments, hobbies, personal pleasures, and social interests. Your infectious love of life and noble nature ensures social popularity, although, at times, you can be rather theatrical in order to hog the spotlight! You may be more inclined to show off your partner during this cycle. Appreciation of the arts is indicated. There is some predisposition to gambling or other forms of financial speculation now. You are feeling inspired creatively and romantically and you express your loving feelings quite openly now. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. You will also thoroughly enjoy artistic, musical, or cultural events and activities, especially in the company of a loved one. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama!

Venus moves through your work and health sector from the 21st. With Venus in your sixth house, the areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are in establishing a happy and harmonious work environment through friendly relations with colleagues. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment. You are generally well liked and respected socially on the job right now. This is a good time to promote harmony and good will on the job. Some laziness is possible now, as you tend to associate pleasure with work. Perhaps you are socializing more than usual on the job. You have good team spirit during this cycle, and you are more tactful and obliging with your co-workers. You are less inclined to fall in love for the sake of love itself during this cycle. Your tendency is to consider whether it is clever to do so! You’re most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony, or the personal, human side of things.

Mercury enlivens your romance and pleasure sector (along with Venus) until the 17th. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to personal issues during this cycle. Although very intelligent, your mind will often dwell on pleasures, hobbies, lovemaking, and amusements; you especially enjoy games requiring mental competition now. You have a deep need for mental pleasure and intellectual stimulation. Therefore, your friends and romantic partner are best appreciated now if they are intellectual types. You’re more willing to take risks on a mental level now, so take advantage of the increased spontaneity and creativity that comes with this position.

Chatty Mercury is in your work and health sector from the 17th forward. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to acquiring specialized skills or knowledge for professional use, and much of your thinking is directed towards how you can organize your daily activities. Your work may demand an intellectual quality of mind, analytical ability, and attention to detail. There is a concern for personal health, hygiene, organization, and polite speech during this cycle. The pace of your work environment is quickened, with lots of ideas and new information coming in. You may learn a skill or piece of technical information that assists your work performance. This is a good time for getting rid of unwanted habits and replacing them with healthier ones. Do your best to balance work with rest. Also, try to avoid criticizing others unwittingly in your attempts to improve your environment or your working conditions.

Mars enters your partnership sector on the 7th. The drama of this position is strongest from the 7-23, when Mars opposes your Sun. You may instigate, aggravate, or stir up trouble either without realizing it (by being too loud, overstepping others’ boundaries, or making assumptions), or even on purpose. You could use this abundance of energy for accomplishment, if you so choose. Tone down aggressive tendencies as much as possible. Beyond the 23rd, Mars is still in your seventh but has left the dramatic opposition to your Sun. You are likely to exert your energy and initiative in active co-operation with others as associates or in partnerships of some kind. You can be aggressive and forceful in intimate relationships, or your partner may be displaying these traits. It is important to be restrained in all dealings with associates, business partners, and intimate partners. If you are too aggressive or dominant now, there is danger of trouble and loss through public opposition, unpopularity, damaged relationships, or even litigation in rare cases. This cycle tests your ability to resolve interpersonal conflicts. Remember that anger is often a mask for hurt feelings. There’s bound to be a lot of friction or push and pull as you strive to balance your style and agenda with another’s.

Highlights:

July 25 New Moon in Leo in your solar fifth house affects you until the next New Moon. Creative self-expression comes under the realm of the fifth house, and a New Moon occurring here sparks the creative juices. Romantic inclinations are also highlighted, as are any kind of celebratory, playful, and just-for-fun endeavors. You will be especially aware of your need for approval and feedback from others, deriving pleasure from the ways your own creativity impact the world around you. This can be a passionate time for you, and a time when you might feel more bold than usual. If you are feeling good about yourself, and especially if you have taken advantage of the time for re-building of confidence that the New Moon in the fourth house brought, you will fairly radiate during this expressive period.

July 26-27 Venus trines Jupiter. Under this influence, good humor, good will, strong morals, and a healthy sense of responsibility all contribute to a happy time. We are able to achieve growth through good feelings now. You may receive great news or praise, and increases may be seen from work.

July 27-29 Mercury is stationary direct. When Mercury is stationary, as it is now, it’s especially important to prepare for possible breakdowns in communication. Back up your computer, double-check your paperwork, and remember that you may not have all the necessary information to make big decisions for the time being. Avoid signing contracts or deals, as they may not work out as you expected, or might need revision later. As Mercury regains speed in the next week, improvements will be seen, but you may want to hold off on new deals until after August 4th.

July 28-29 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

July 30-31 Venus trines Uranus. Romantic surprises. Under this influence, we lose our fear of taking risks and we happily embrace all that is new, unusual, and out-of-the-ordinary with regards to romantic involvements as well as financial undertakings. We are ready to experiment, but not necessarily ready to commit. Creative inspiration can be had now. We have an offbeat, pleasant attitude and we are more willing to socialize. This is a good time for financial undertakings involving electronics, technology, the internet, metaphysics, and the arts, as well as for group activities.

August 1-2 Our egos may be a bit out of control with the Sun in tense aspect to Jupiter and Pluto. Expansion is possible if we can keep our egos in check! In your case, ego trips and conflicts on the job are very likely now. Resist the temptation to overstate your feelings or to jump to dramatic conclusions.

August 3-5 Awkward aspects involving Venus-Neptune, Mercury-Pluto, and Sun-Uranus suggest some adjustments are necessary. This is a time when we tend to second-guess, re-think, and temporarily lose our faith in people. This could be a challenging period for your close partnerships in particular, as well as family relations (disappointments are possible), and work or health matters. You may find yourself at odds with a sibling, neighbor, or partner. You could also temporarily question whether your partner values the same things as you do, or if you are getting satisfaction from your work. Remember that your frustrations could only be a projection of your own insecurities and doubts. Strive to be more objective.

August 4-5 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

August 6-9 The Sun aligns with Saturn in Leo, and Mars forms a harmonious aspect with Jupiter. We become aware of increased responsibilities in our careers, love affairs, or family life. Perhaps we recognize the dangers of stress and overwork. We have a chance to become more mature, goal-oriented, and responsible. This can be a good time to begin a cycle in which we build a business, especially a creative one, or re-commit to a long-term project. Decisive action comes naturally now. We possess willpower, verve, and energy that we can direct toward achieving our goals. We want to branch out and take on more challenges. Positive yet realistic attitudes create winning situations now. A spirit of friendly competition prevails, as well as the desire to take beneficial action. For you, circumstances are such that you become acutely aware of a maturation process with regards to how you handle your work, daily routines, health, and working relationships. You are required to come up with something solid now in terms of your level of commitment to your work or to your daily and health routines. You may be required to call upon your more responsible side in order to deal with a work matter. Issues surrounding your friendships or group associations may be part of the picture. Your personal income may get a boost. Your career may enjoy a healthy injection of adventure and verve.

August 9 Full Moon in Aquarius in your solar twelfth house. This Full Moon highlights a Saturn-Neptune opposition, bringing into our awareness a clash between our ideals and reality. Challenges in your spiritual life, work, and health matters may come to light, and you may be feeling drained by the demands of these areas of your life. Striking a balance is in order, but getting to that medium ground may be a bit of a struggle. Circumstances are such that you have an overwhelming need to be alone. You’ve been busy with all sorts of everyday activities, deeply involved in your work and routines. It’s time to balance your life with some down time–otherwise, you simply don’t feel whole. Issues come to light that originate from deep within. It’s an excellent time to get in touch with what’s been brewing beneath the surface.

August 9-13 Uranus is in hard aspect to Mercury, Venus, and Mars, while the Sun opposes Neptune. Infatuations are more likely now–with people, things, and ideas. The desire for something new and exotic–something that breaks the routine–is strong during this period. Unusual attractions (to people and things) can have us acting on a whim. We may deal with freedom versus closeness issues in our relationships. We have a tendency to take risks, to feel restless, and to act on sudden impulses without considering consequences. We assert our wills and individuality powerfully, and we are willing to fight for freedom. There may be changes in work schedules, or life’s circumstances could challenge us in such a way that we need to change our goals or actions. Some disappointments or disillusionments are also possible now. The demands made upon you at work could strain you and make you want to escape. You could also clash with a close partner now. Avoid confrontations with your partner, who could be having a hard time with your recent show of independence; and also take care that what you write or say doesn’t cause controversy or backlash.

August 11-12 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

August 13-14 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

August 16-17 The Sun trines Pluto, and we are able to get to the bottom of things. We are more decisive than usual, and our abilities to concentrate and focus help us achieve what we set out to do. This is a very positive aspect for starting a money-making endeavor or a new project. Research brings rewards. We benefit now from strategy and keeping things to ourselves for the time being. Opportunities to find or renew something we had lost, and to gain some power are available now. This energy urges you to express the “real you” with confidence, but also with discretion. You don’t need to put all of your cards on the table just now. Lessons from your past could boost your working relationships now and into the future. This is an excellent period for you to get recognition on the job, to discover something that enhances your health, and to schedule a job interview. Headway could be made in your career now.

August 19-20 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

August 19-21 Mercury conjuncts Saturn, quincunxes Uranus, and opposes Neptune; Venus forms a tense aspect with Pluto. This is a time when you are inclined to sort out your thoughts and re-think your strategies. Do just that, and avoid speaking out prematurely. You are required to show your responsible side, even if you are feeling a bit disappointed, or even disillusioned, with your life just now. This is a time when you need to re-formulate life strategies. It’s probably wise not to believe everything you hear now, as some important information may be omitted. Some tensions on the job are possible now. In general, others seem to be misunderstanding you. You could be at war with a partner over a serious issue.

August 22-23 Venus squares Jupiter. Use caution with your finances and your heart. If something seems too good to be true, it may very well be at this time! Feelings of elation in love or with regards to the pleasures of life can lead us to overdo, overindulge, overspend, and overstate our feelings. We might take great strides to get noticed. Avoid hasty (or haughty!) decisions, and steer clear of impulsive buying. Take a letter, email, or other form of communication with a grain of salt.

August 23 New Moon in Virgo in your solar sixth house affects you until the next New Moon. The New Moon in the sixth house heralds a time when new diet regimes, healthy routines, and satisfying work schedules can be successfully initiated. It is a time of taking care of business, handling details, and increasing your efficiency by re-organizing or simply by working enthusiastically at tasks that help you get caught up in your work. It is also a good time for analysis of any sort, as critical thinking is now at its peak. This period is marked by a desire to sort things out, but also to be useful.

August 24 Mercury trines Pluto, and we stand to gain enormous insight into problems, projects, and people! Conversations today could help you solve nagging problems in your life and allow you to move forward. Good news about your job may be forthcoming today. This is an excellent day for strengthening a close partnership or family relationship.

August 24-25 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

August 26-27 Venus conjuncts Saturn and opposes Neptune. Relationships are tricky and perhaps disappointing for the time being. We might want a commitment while a significant other remains evasive and hard to pin down–or vice versa. This is a time when your work load could be heavy, and your job or employer demands something concrete from you. His or her problems or seriousness affect you strongly. Ambiguities concerning your own spiritual direction, however, may have you feeling anxious, but there’s no better time than now to formulate realistic plans for improving your commitments. You could be feeling underappreciated or even financially drained.

August 28-30 Mars squares Pluto and Jupiter trines Uranus. This is a time of fun surprises and interesting opportunities. For you, it’s reward time! You may have new opportunities presented to you, seemingly from out of nowhere, such as a career opportunity, financial boost, or a chance meeting with someone who contributes to your success. Whatever it is, it will require immediate action on your part and it will probably be a wild departure from your norm. You are bound to come up with innovative ideas that can be put into practice at a later time. However, a power struggle with a close partner or over a financial or business matter could have you squirming. Do your best to let things flow naturally or you’ll only serve to stress yourself out, when the truth is, this is an opportunity period for you.

August 31-September 1 Venus trines Pluto and the Sun conjuncts Mercury. A conversation or communication with a partner (or potential partner) today could open the doors to a new opportunity. Use diplomacy and tact, and truly listen to what others are saying now. This is an excellent day for boosting your position on the job.

July 2006: Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

July

Overview. All month, the Sun illuminates your pleasure and romance sector. More than any time of the year, this is the cycle in which you focus on having fun, enjoying romance, and expressing yourself creatively. Your hobbies, leisure time, moments spent with children, gaming time, and so forth, all come into focus at this time of year. This is a cycle in which you find joy in expressing who you are–when your “inner child” comes out to play. This is a time when you are more flirtatious than usual, and when you might take a few risks in life–not only gambling with games but with life itself. You might be a bit of a showman at this time. You are likely feeling good in general, and you tend to spread the joy.

The Mercury retrograde cycle from the 4-28 affects your fifth house of romance, speculation, entertainment, and children. Arguments with a lover may be blown out of proportion. Both you and your lover should avoid harping on the words used and try to get to the meaning behind the words instead. Speculation and gambling are not advised right now. It will be important to avoid signing any contracts or making important partnership or family/home decisions.

Jupiter goes direct on the 6th. For you, this suggests that matters pertaining to higher education, travel, career, and reputation are beginning to show signs of moving forward after a period of stagnation. The first signs of resolution for these issues will be with you this month. You are likely to project more confidence through a more competent, spontaneous, jovial, and spiritually centered demeanor.

You are pouring a lot of energy into pleasure and love relationships this month. A partner may be re-considering things this month, which could have you on your toes. However, you have charm working on your side from the 1-12. You come across swimmingly from the 26-31, and love is in the air. Be cautious with your pocketbook on the 4th-6th.

Your ruler, Neptune, trines Venus on the 9-10–an excellent period for you when you may attract love (or money), and when you feel especially appreciated and valued. The 4-6 could be a challenging period for you when you encounter opposition, particularly on the job. You may be feeling blocked, restless, and impatient. The 21-22 is a brief period when you are feeling undervalued or unappreciated.

Some challenges with money can occur around the 4-6. However, excellent days for financial matters occur on the 13-16. Misunderstandings with a lover are possible this month, particularly around the 11th, but you can successfully use your charm and negotiation skills to smooth over differences. Close personal relationships, including marriage or other committed partnerships, benefit most on the 28-31, when the air is cleared and things seem to be moving forward. The biggest challenges to close personal relationships this month occur on the 9-12, when erratic behavior is a factor, and the 18-20, when manipulation or mind games may be part of the picture.

Venus journeys through your home and family sector from the 2-27. What you are most attracted to now are the depths of the soul, your roots, the home, and a feeling of security. You are more nurturing in your love relationships, and you take whatever steps that are necessary to create a peaceful and pleasant environment in your home and with family members. You could experience strong emotional romanticism at this time, and what touches you is what lies below the surface. You feel most loved when you are taken care of and when you feel included–like you belong. As well, if you are able to express your deepest feelings with a partner, you are at your most satisfied. You are seeking inner peace during this cycle, but you could be feeling rather needy or dependent now.

Venus moves to your romance and pleasure sector on the 27th. This is great news for you! You are feeling inspired creatively and romantically and you express your loving feelings quite openly now. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. You will also thoroughly enjoy artistic, musical, or cultural events and activities, especially in the company of a loved one. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama!

Mars, the planet of action, moves through your solar sixth house all month, and you have more energy at your disposal for work and fitness or other health routines. You are bound to take a head-on, direct approach to organizing your life and with regards to your working methods. Impatience with daily routines is also possible, particularly around the 4-6. You may be inclined to compete with others on a professional level, or at least to want to dominate or work solo. You are not in the mood to take orders just now! This period doesn’t favor teamwork. Avoid the tendency to argue with co-workers by doing whatever you can to work independently. You work with energy, impatience, and speed during this cycle. It’s a good time to focus on a fitness routine.

The most rewarding period of the month is likely to be from the 1-12, when the transiting Sun trines your own Sun. You are feeling especially romantic, and you feel energetically supported by those around you.

Highlights:

June 25 New Moon in Cancer just behind your solar fifth house affects you until the next New Moon. Creative self-expression comes under the realm of the fifth house, and a New Moon occurring here sparks the creative juices. Romantic inclinations are also highlighted, as are any kind of celebratory, playful, and just-for-fun endeavors. You will be especially aware of your need for approval and feedback from others, deriving pleasure from the ways your own creativity impact the world around you. This can be a passionate time for you, and a time when you might feel more bold than usual. If you are feeling good about yourself, and especially if you have taken advantage of the time for re-building of confidence that the New Moon in the fourth house brought, you will fairly radiate during this expressive period.

June 25-26 Your ruler, Neptune, forms a tense aspect with the Sun, and you may not be received well, or others could question your authority just now. This may be especially likely on the job.

June 26-27 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

June 30-July 2 Venus trines Chiron and sextiles Saturn, and the Sun trines Jupiter. Romantic energy is strong, and good will reigns. This is a strong period for both relationships and finances. Healing energies are with us, and we tend to attract good things with our positive attitudes. For you, career matters, joint finances, investments, insurance and tax matters should go well.

July 3-5 Mercury is stationary retrograde now, and will remain retrograde until the 28th–a cycle when rethinking things is the name of the game. When Mercury is stationary, as it is now, it’s especially important to prepare for possible breakdowns in communication. Back up your computer, double-check your paperwork, and remember that you may not have all the necessary information to make big decisions for the time being. Avoid signing contracts or deals, as they may not work out as you expected, or might need revision later. July 4-5 With Mars opposite Neptune, the planet of illusion, we could find ourselves spinning our wheels. We want more from our actions than simple, everyday results–we’re seeking inspiration, bliss, release, anything that makes us feel like we’re not locked into the mundane world. Watch for passive-aggressive and manipulative behavior, simply because it can be a challenge to move forward and grab what we want if we take a direct, simple route. If something looks too good to be true now, it may very well be. A face-off with a co-worker is possible now. Disappointments with finances may also be part of the picture.

July 6-7 Freedom of movement and of thought are especially important to us right now. Venus squares Uranus and semi-squares Mercury, and the Sun trines Uranus. It’s a time when we can safely “expect the unexpected”, particularly when it comes to personal relationships. Watch for impulsive spending or fickle behavior in love. Flexibility is the key to success now.

July 8-9 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

July 9-10 Venus harmonizes with Neptune and Mercury and Uranus form a tense aspect. Romantic relationships have a touch of magic right now. We see the very best in people now, and this eases our interactions and takes the pressure off in personal relationships. This is a period of reading between the lines and thinking outside the box. Your powers of attraction are very high right now. Others see you in a most positive light.

July 11 Full Moon in Capricorn in your solar eleventh house. This Full Moon trines Uranus, adding insight, the ability to free ourselves from parts of our past that have been limiting us, and a feeling of truly moving ahead to issues illuminated by the Full Moon. You’ve been focusing on what brings you pleasure–your hobbies, romantic activities, and so forth. Now you realize that the role you play in others’ lives (as a spouse, parent, friend) is an important element in your overall happiness. You’re looking for validation from friends and group activities now, and there may be a big social event or group activity in the works.

July 13-16 Intense energy is with us now with Venus opposite Pluto and sextile Mars, Mars trine Pluto, and Jupiter and Saturn involved. Romantic, creative, and sexual intensity is what these influences are all about. There can be a confrontation or drama in personal relationships that leads to greater closeness and understanding–even ecstasy. Interactions are complex and dynamic now, and our relationships have more verve than usual. We are more inclined to go after what we want. Some feelings of being blocked are also possible, which could propel us to try harder. The most probable arena for these energies to take place in your life is with family, intimate partners, and professional associates.

July 14-15 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

July 16-17 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

July 21-22 Hard aspects between Venus and Neptune and the Sun and Uranus make for an awkward, erratic, and perhaps disappointing couple of days. We could feel that our relationships are missing important elements, or we may face reality after engaging in self-deception. Surprises or changes in plans can throw us off center. You could be feeling underappreciated, left out, or completely misunderstood. A co-worker may challenge you, or unusual/upsetting conditions on the job may be experienced. We should feel re-energized by the 23rd, however, when both the Sun and Mars enter new signs.

July 23-24 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

Pisces (Born March 2 to March 11) and Pisces Ascendant 10 to 20 degrees Pisces:

June 2006: Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

June

Overview. All month, the Sun puts the spotlight on your sector of home and family, and these areas are your instinctive focus during this period. Besides spending more time tending to domestic affairs, the focus can be on cultivating and nourishing your inner foundations that support your life. This is a time to collect yourself–to fill your well, so to speak. You take more pride in your family, your home, and your heritage during this cycle.

A long-term trend this year involves more interest in your spirituality. Your outlook on life is heavily influenced by what is going on subconsciously. Something about your personality reflects your desire to help other people and they can easily recognize this. You may experience a time of confusion and doubt about who you really are and you can be your own worst enemy at times. The most important person you may have to forgive is yourself!

Uranus’ retrograde in Pisces brings these matters to light, and you might take some extra time to yourself for introspection and reflection. You may experience a period of turning inward, as you re-evaluate the way you come across to others–your image, mannerisms, and appearance–in order to determine whether you are expressing authenticity and sincerity in your approach to others.

Another long-term trend involves the connection between your solar ninth and tenth houses. Your personal philosophies on life could receive public attention. There could be a movement in your career towards travel, law, publishing, teaching or sports. Your career could require long distance travel or even travel overseas, and you may be called upon to do more teaching on the job. These themes figure strongly in your life this month with the rulers of your ninth and tenth houses involved in a semi-square.

Your ruler, Neptune, receives a healthy trine from the Sun around the time of the New Moon, the 10-11. This is an excellent period for family and work matters, as well as for boosting self-confidence. Neptune squares Venus in your solar third house on the 14-15, when you could too easily be misunderstood.

With the ruler of your personal finances, Mars, moving into Leo this month, you could express more generosity and you could be more grand in the way you spend and give money. You could also be working harder than usual in order to make extra money from the 20th forward. Challenging days for finances occur on the 1-3, when impulsiveness with money could be costly, the 6-11, and the 18-21. You could see some returns on your investments and increased business income on the 16-17, and this could motivate you to work even harder.

This month, y our work could involve the domestic scene or may be related to property and real estate. You may work from home.
You have more energy for work this month after the 20th. Excellent days for work and health matters occur on the 10-11 and June 30-July 1. Tensions on the job could arise on the 4-5, 6-9, 13-15, and 25-26. Health issues may be part of the picture on the 25-26, when your vitality is lower than usual.

Love affairs often heat up for you around the time of the Full Moon each month. This month’s Full Moon occurs on the 11th. The 9-12 are excellent days for you to attract love, or to solve problems in existing romantic relationships. A spouse or close partner could be especially playful and romantic this month, and might also demand a little more specialized attention.

Venus infuses charm into your communications from the 7th. Courteous and friendly relations with neighbors and others in your immediate environment typify this time cycle. It’s a time of peacemaking and forming bridges of good will and cooperation with people you meet on a daily or casual basis. Sending notes of appreciation and similar loving gestures lighten the atmosphere. Take time to do little favors, exchange pleasantries, notice the flowers in your neighbor’s garden, and comment on the positive things you see around you. Focus on humor and lighthearted conversation.

Fiery Mars continues to move through your romance and pleasure sector until the 20th, and your love life heats up. This is a very self-expressive time when you have lots of energy, but not necessarily self-discipline to match. You have more energy at your disposal to express yourself creatively, through activities with children, romantic activities, hobbies, or sports. Your love life may step up a notch, and this could be an especially passionate time. You tend to put more energy into play and pleasure! Be careful not to burn the candle at both ends. Also, watch out for a tendency to want to gamble. You are more playful than usual, and especially magnetic. The planet of action activates your work and health sector from the 20th. You have more energy for work and your daily routines tend to speed up during this transit. Perhaps you have a larger workload than usual. It’s a great time to take charge of your health. You have much energy at your disposal to pick up (or step up) a health and physical activity program. It might be hard for you to work with others in a harmonious manner during this transit, and disputes with co-workers are possible. If you are feeling especially angry, frustrated, or restless, it would be wise to find little projects and things to do so that you can channel excess energy constructively, particularly around the 1-3 and 19-21. If health is affected, fevers or infections are more likely during this cycle.

While you may be caught up in reminisce in the first week of June, Mercury transits your solar fifth from the 9th, and intellectual diversions satisfy you most. It’s a good time to come up with some especially creative ideas, as the flow of your thoughts is more spontaneous and playful than usual. From the 28th, Mercury enlivens your work and health sector, keeping things chatty and busy on the job. The pace of your work environment is quickened, with lots of ideas and new information coming in. With Mars here as well, there’s bound to be quite a bit of movement in these areas of your life.

Mercury and Venus in warm aspect to your Sun/Ascendant from the 9-15 makes this period an excellent time overall to present your ideas, as others receive you warmly.

Highlights:

May 27 New Moon in Gemini just behind your solar fourth house affects you for approximately 4 weeks (until the next New Moon). Home and family may be a focus during this phase. On a personal, developmental level, this is a time to not only listen to what is in your gut, but to pay homage to those feelings! What makes you feel safe and secure? This is the time to explore and develop a sense of inner security. Although the fourth house is associated with the home, it is an angular, cardinal house that stirs up activity. This is a time of re-organization and heightened awareness of your roots, issues of intimacy and vulnerability, and it’s an excellent time to come in touch with your feelings and needs. Focusing on your support system and the manner in which you support others is also probable. This is a good time to make long-range plans for the future, to do any type of re-organizing or even re-modeling of the home or home environment, and for family-related activities.

June 3-4 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

June 4-7 Some exciting yet unstable energy is with us during this period. Venus forms tense aspects with Saturn, Jupiter, Chiron, and Pluto, and we can experience a confusing mix of feelings on social and romantic levels. Overdoing it, under-doing it, and general see-sawing when it comes to relationships and finances are the theme. Further, the Sun forms tense aspects with Mars and Uranus, inviting us to take risks, but we may not be considering the consequences! It’s a less than ideal time to start a relationship or to make a significant purchase. For you, your ruler (Neptune) forms a tense aspect with Mercury during this period, suggesting some problems being understood or heard, and your family and partnership sectors are stimulated, bringing issues surrounding these areas of life to the forefront.

June 9-12 Mercury trines Jupiter and then Uranus, offering us breakthrough insights and downright brilliant ideas if we choose to listen to our intuition. The Sun also trines dreamy Neptune and Venus sextiles Uranus–the picture is very pretty indeed! Let loose, have some fun, and enjoy this smooth energy. With your ruler in harmonious aspect to the Sun, you are received well and things seem to flow smoothly. Others may recognize you as a leader in some manner.

June 11-12 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

June 11 Full Moon in Sagittarius in your solar tenth house. This Full Moon involves Pluto and is supported by Neptune, intensifying issues illuminated by the Full Moon, but with the potential for acceptance and clearer understanding–even spiritual enlightenment. You are suddenly in the limelight–everyone notices you now. It’s time to put your best foot forward, but be sure to do so with grace and consideration for others, or you may just make a display that you regret later. Perhaps you’ve been hiding yourself away, taking it easy. Now you need a little attention, and career matters come to a head. You’re called to perform, perhaps on a moment’s notice, and it’s best to keep your cool and do whatever you can to show your competence.

June 14-15 Your ruler, Neptune, is square Venus, bringing love, romance, and financial matters to the fore. There could be some disagreements regarding money during this period. Avoid new financial initiatives just now.

June 17-18 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

June 18-19 Mars conjoins Saturn and squares Jupiter. We’re forced to do things by the book, but may not want to. This is not the time to take shortcuts–they won’t work. When we think in big terms, or if we have the urge to expand, we confront obstacles or face reality. Some re-structuring of our lives and of our business goals is now in order. We may be looking for new challenges, sometimes because we are forced to do so (because things are not going exactly as we had planned). We have a desire to grow and expand, but our attitude is tempered with some caution and feelings of restriction.

It is best to breathe new life into old plans rather than to strike out with a new plan altogether. Take steps to grow, but don’t overextend yourself at this time or you are bound to face frustrations. The delays we may face now are actually fortunate ones! Patience and endurance leads to accomplishment and slow but steady progress in business and practical matters. This is an excellent time for you to make a commitment to a new health regime or diet, as well as to a new work-related or organizing project.

June 19-20 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

June 25-26 Your ruler, Neptune, forms a tense aspect with the Sun, and you may not be received well, or others could question your authority just now. This may be especially likely on the job.

June 30-July 1 Venus trines Chiron and the Sun trines Jupiter. Romantic energy is strong, and good will reigns. This is a strong period for both relationships and finances. Healing energies are with us, and we tend to attract good things with our positive attitudes. For you, career matters, joint finances, investments, insurance and tax matters should go well.

Venus continues her journey through your first house until the 12th,
and your desire to love and to be loved is stronger than usual. This is a cycle in which you naturally attract what you want, rather than aggressively pursue it.

The grand trine on May 4-9 falls in your self-expression sectors, and you feel particularly courageous and pioneering. Because Uranus is involved in the trine and on your Sun, this is a power period for you. Don’t pass up on opportunities now. Advances can also be made with personal finances, your career, and any matter that requires drawing upon your personal resources.

Work is especially rewarding on the 27th, and some challenges or confusion are likely on the 9-10.

Your attitude towards your personal finances is a little more bold this month, as you are inclined towards taking a few risks. The 4-8 is an excellent period for launching new financial initiatives, while caution should be exercised on the 16-17 and 22-24, particularly with investing and speculation.

Romance is heating up and quite lively this month. A lover may be restless mid-month, and it’s a good time for a romantic get-away. An excellent period for attracting love is the 4-8. Challenges in your love life are possible on the 16-17 and likely on the 22-24.

Mars moves through your romance and pleasure sector all month. This is a very self-expressive time when you have lots of energy, but not necessarily self-discipline to match. You have more energy at your disposal to express yourself creatively, through activities with children, romantic activities, hobbies, or sports. Your love life may step up a notch, and this could be an especially passionate time. You tend to put more energy into play and pleasure! Be careful not to burn the candle at both ends.

April 27 New Moon in Taurus in your solar third house affects you until the next New Moon.

Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

May 4-9 Some exciting cosmic energy is with us now, with a grand trine involving action-oriented Mars, lucky Jupiter (your co-ruler), and inventive Uranus in your sign. This is a time of “lucky breaks”, although we need to capitalize on opportunities in order to benefit from them. Our intuition is good, we have a feel for new things and ideas, and we can benefit from timely action. Begin a creative activity (or enjoy the fruits of a successful one), and listen to your intuition. As long as we aren’t foolhardy, this is a good time for speculation, self-promotion, and recognition. This grand trine affects your self-expressive houses, and you have the chance to advance any matter that draws upon your personal sense of courage and adventure. Your life benefits from renewed focus, commitment, and vitality. It’s also an excellent time for spiritual endeavors, career, and personal finances. With Uranus on your Sun, you have extra willpower, verve, and energy that you can direct toward achieving your goals. You are able to act decisively, with leadership and courage. Success in contracts, negotiations, and business deals comes easily.

May 7-8 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

May 9-10 Your ruler, Neptune, challenges the Sun. Misunderstandings, possibly on the job, are likely to arise now. Avoid making a presentation or starting an important conversation now, as you are likely to be misrepresented–or to misrepresent yourself! Others may question your integrity now.

May 11-12 Venus sextiles Chiron; Mercury sextiles Uranus and opposes Jupiter. This is an excellent period for romantic and intimate relationships. Good news or illuminating conversations offer hope and ease your mind. Healing energy is with you now–you have the chance to make amends or to offer support. It’s a great time to make a presentation or to start an important conversation.

May 13 Full Moon in Scorpio in your solar ninth house. This Full Moon is supported by Mars and challenged by Neptune, cautioning us that we may be reading too much (or too little) into issues illuminated by the Full Moon. However, this can be a spiritually enlightening time. Your attention to the logical world of reason has been a focus in the last two weeks. Now you feel a crisis of lack. Your personal beliefs may be tested now. Your impulses and faith matter, and all of the attention you’ve been giving to mundane affairs has you wondering when you’re going to have some fun. You want to take a leap of faith now. Your adventurous side pushes up and out, demanding attention.

May 14 Your ruler, Neptune, challenges Mercury. A conflict of wills or blockages can occur with a significant other or a family member. You are feeling misrepresented and misunderstood under this temporary influence. It’s not a good day to push projects forward, present an idea, make a proposition, or sign on the dotted line.

May 14-15 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

May 16-17 Awkward energy is with us now, and it’s best to lay low. Confusion about where we are headed, and awkward communications can put a damper on our spirits. Relax, reflect, and avoid confrontations. This is a challenging day for finances. Avoid speculation at all costs now.

May 20-21 Venus sextiles dreamy Neptune (your ruler) and contra-parallels exciting Uranus. Romantic energy is strong, but avoid getting into an unrealistic state of mind, as this will only serve to aggravate the tense period coming on May 22-24. This is a time when enlightenment can come in a flash. You are especially magnetic and attractive now. You are exuding warm, romantic energy and are sure to get noticed.

May 21-22 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

May 22-24 Venus squares Mars with Mercury intensifying the square. Venus square Mars is a time of romantic misadventures and war between the sexes. With Mercury involved as well, a tendency to say the wrong thing only aggravates the tension. Try not to fly off the handle, and avoid making impulsive decisions with love, partnership, and money.

May 23-24 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible. Because this occurs at the same time as the Venus square Mars aspect above, a little financial crisis is he most likely scenario.

May 25-26 Venus trines Pluto and Mercury squares Uranus. Our feelings are intense and impassioned, but not in an offensive or destructive way. Hopefulness for the future is featured. A good time for financial endeavors, especially if they involve computers, technology, and new (futuristic) ideas.

May 27 New Moon in Gemini in your solar fourth house affects you for approximately 4 weeks (until the next New Moon). Home and family may be a focus during this phase. On a personal, developmental level, this is a time to not only listen to what is in your gut, but to pay homage to those feelings!

What makes you feel safe and secure? This is the time to explore and develop a sense of inner security. Although the fourth house is associated with the home, it is an angular, cardinal house that stirs up activity. This is a time of re-organization and heightened awareness of your roots, issues of intimacy and vulnerability, and it’s an excellent time to come in touch with your feelings and needs. Focusing on your support system and the manner in which you support others is also probable. This is a good time to make long-range plans for the future, to do any type of re-organizing or even re-modeling of the home or home environment, and for family-related activities.

May 28 Your ruler, Neptune, trines Mercury. This is an excellent day to spend with family or those near and dear to your heart. Partnerships can be enhanced, or attracted. An excellent day to get closer to someone and to express yourself.

May 29-30 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

With March’s eclipse, it’s time to start fresh with regards to how you go about satisfying your needs for security and comfort.

Mercury moving through your solar first house until the 24th makes you more talkative and sociable than usual. Mercury’s retrograde last month meant that others misunderstood what you had to say, and misread your body language as well. Partnership and family/home issues were compromised as well. Mercury moving forward means that problems you may have had with such matters are lifting. Your judgment was compromised in March, but this becomes a thing of the past in April. Now is the time when you can go ahead with partnership and family decisions. What you say now not only has impact, it’s understood and appreciated.

Privacy in your personal life continues to be paramount until mid-month. Laying low in both romance and finances is advised until mid-month. Venus moving into your solar first house on the 15th is a “feel good” transit. You are personable and your people skills are above par. It’s a good time to exert your personal influence, as you are especially cooperative and gracious during this period. What do you want? Now is the time when you can attract it. Although it wouldn’t be far-fetched to assume that gifts and rewards are coming your way, don’t sit around and wait. Circulate, express yourself, and have a little fun. Any new relationships started now are bound to be (at least a little bit) based on ego-stroking! Existing relationships take on a more playful tone. You’re making heads turn in April.

Mars continues its journey through your home and family sector this month. You have more energy at your disposal for domestic projects or activities. Because your actions are governed by your instincts during this period, you may be especially defensive and protective. You may work hard at making yourself feel more secure, and you may be called upon to take charge on the home and family front. You may have more energy to invest in homemaking, house repairs, re-decorating, or family activities. In fact, if you are feeling very restless, moody, or defensive during this period, it would be a good idea to do any of these things! You may have an increased desire to rule the roost, and if this transit stimulates conflict or disputes, it is likely to be family-related–you may have arguments with them, about them, or on their behalf. You may also encounter opposition from career-related matters or people. Conflict is most probable around the 6th-9th, when Mars opposes Pluto. You could encounter some opposition, and it likely revolves around your public versus private life.

Saturn turning direct this month is good news for you. While Saturn was retrograde for the last 4-1/2 months, you may have felt blocked, especially with issues surrounding work and health. Stagnation and a feeling of being in a rut were likely. You may have been really dragging yourself out of bed in the morning! As well, health and vitality were not up to par. These matters are not going to be moving forward quickly just yet, but you will begin to feel more on top of things now. Take this opportunity to start a new health and diet regime.

Highlights:

March 29 New Moon in Aries (Total Solar Eclipse) in your solar second house. This energy is with you until the next New Moon, and beyond (its effects can extend up to 6 months). Heightened sensitivity to the world of the five senses, to your physical environment, and to the security you gain from the solid ground you have built for yourself is in order for this period of time. Attunement to, and appreciation of, the physical world of the senses is the focus, and this is a time to start fresh in terms of how you arrange your life in order to feel a sense of value and worthiness. Financial issues come into focus. Setting realistic financial goals, as well as formulating such things as budgets and other sensible financial planning projects, will be favored during this time. Discovering ways to increase your income is featured. It is also a wonderful time for taking moments to pleasure yourself through earthy, tactile, and comforting endeavors.

April 2-4 Some exciting cosmic energy is with us now. Venus is parallel Chiron and sextile Pluto, and Mercury re-visits its trine to Jupiter. This is an excellent period for financial undertakings, love, and overall good humor. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to make a purchase, here it is.

April 5-6 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

April 6-9 Mars opposes Pluto and Mercury forms a tense aspect with Saturn. Conflicts are very possible now, and they likely revolve around attention given to family and to career. Avoid taking extreme measures to make things happen your way, and avoid people who might be doing same. Take a break if you can, and pass up on face-offs or battles of will–it’s hard to win just now. Trying to get the upper hand is fruitless today.

April 8-9 Your ruler, Neptune, forms a harmonious aspect with the Sun. You are displaying strength of mind and character, leadership skills, and direction. A good period for furthering your goals, exerting your personal influence, and self-expression on the job.

April 10-11 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

April 13 Full Moon in Libra in your solar eighth house. This Full Moon is supported by both Neptune and Pluto, offering us creative revelations and solutions to issues illuminated by the Full Moon. This Full Moon is all about give and take. What makes you feel comfortable and secure needs to be balanced with attention to other people’s needs and comfort levels. It’s a good time to settle some of your debts, financial or otherwise.

April 16-17 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

April 16-18 Venus conjuncts Uranus in Pisces, the Sun trines Pluto, and Mercury squares Mars. This is a high-energy, potentially productive period if we can avoid being too impulsive. There can be great excitement in love now–a feeling of re-birth, in fact. We could have the gumption to take a chance and speculate on a love that is intense and unpredictable, and we are more decisive than usual. For you, your power of attraction is strong, and surprises are in store. Recognition is forthcoming. Others see you in an especially positive light.

April 23-25 The Sun and Venus form tense aspects with Saturn, and it’s best to avoid new financial undertakings, as they may prove to be “money pits” as time passes. There can be difficulties relating to others, and it’s hard to satisfy the ego. We feel blocked by circumstances or by others. It’s too easy to feel discouraged, but discouragement is a time waster. Gratitude isn’t forthcoming right now, so it’s best to wait it out rather than waste energy letting it get to you. Avoid any form of speculation and steer clear of new financial initiatives.

April 24-25 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

April 26-27 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are all possible.

April 29 Your ruler, Neptune, sextiles Mercury. A good day for communications of all kinds. Now is the time to present your idea, propose a new plan, and express yourself. Partners and family members are more agreeable and supportive.

Pisces (Born March 2 to March 11) and Pisces Ascendant 10 to 20 degrees Pisces:

March 2006: Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

March

Overview. Neptune, your ruler, continues to square Jupiter for the first four weeks of March, suggesting that you should probably avoid get-rich-quick-schemes! You can be generous without being discriminating, which can result in wastefulness, and you should be careful when investing or taking risks to make sure you have thoroughly analyzed the situation before committing yourself to it. Following your intuition is a great idea this month on other matters, however–you are extremely creative and you will find that listening to your dreaming mind helps you to solve problems that may have been nagging you.

The month begins with the Sun conjunct Uranus directly on your Sun, giving you an electric boost of confidence seasoned with a touch of rebelliousness. You get noticed this month without even trying, and you could also find that you have a lot of energy to pour into domestic activities by the 10thperhaps reorganizing or getting involved in family activities. You feel more outgoing and interested in the impression you are making on others.

Your life is very active with Mars square your Sun from the 10th onwards, but the energy is likely to be a stop-and-go influence during Mercury’s retrograde cycle from the 2nd to the 25th in your sign. Others might misunderstand what you have to say, and misread your body language as well. It will be important to avoid signing any contracts or making important partnership or family/home decisions. Don’t worry too much if others aren’t quite “getting” you for the time being. Things will change once Mercury turns direct, so you might decide to try to keep status quo during the retrograde cycle. Use this cycle for finding new solutions to life’s problems, especially with regards to the manner in which you present yourself to the world.

Highlights:

February 27 New Moon in Pisces in your solar first house affects you until the next New Moon. This New Moon placement is a powerful one–it’s a time to reinvent yourself in some personal way, such as with a new look or manner of expressing and presenting yourself. This is a personally busy time of year, when you feel energetic and enthusiastic.

Think about how you present yourself to others, focus on changing personal habits in such a way as to improve your confidence in yourself, and concentrate on putting your best foot forward, as this is a time when you will get noticed and make a personal impression on others. However, factor in the importance of authenticity in your presentation of yourself. You do not have to, of course, reveal all of yourself to others, but the sign of Aries associated with the first house reminds us of the importance of acting on our impulses and believing in ourselves. This is a time when you can be brave and enjoy new experiences.

March 1-2 The Sun conjuncts Uranus in your sign, kicking off an exciting month for you. Circumstances are such that you receive a healthy boost to your confidence. Others are seeing your traits as especially clever.

March 9-10 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. You have an emotional need for recreation. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

March 13-14 Venus and Chiron align right now, signaling a magical time for making a resolution to repair, heal, and improve relationships. With Mercury retrograde, it’s probably best to keep your plans to yourself for now, but make a new resolution and feel the magical healing powers of Venus-Chiron unfold in your life. It’s time to let your dreams and intuition guide you.

March 14-15 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

March 14 Full Moon in Virgo (Lunar Eclipse) in your solar seventh house. This Full Moon has a longer influence than most because it’s a Lunar Eclipse, and its effects should reverberate through your life for at least a few months.

This is a wonderful time to let your partner shine and just lay back and appreciate it all. That can mean enjoying the fruits of your mutual labors wrought by the relationship, or it can mean finally fully connecting with someone you’ve been developing something special with for a while. In either case, the rewards of connecting closely will take center stage, and you can lean on the familiarity you already have to support what comes next. This can apply equally well in business as in romance, as long as you’re dealing with an equal on equal ground. The essence is that you bring things to full bloom right now, so you can begin harvesting what you have sown.

March 21-22 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

March 23-25 Your ruler, Neptune, trines Mars and semi-squares the Sun. This is an active period for you, when setting goals and taking action is favored, or perhaps necessary.

March 25-26 Venus conjuncts Neptune and trines Mars. This is a time to enjoy sensual and dreamy arts. Romance is on the agenda! It’s a magical time for everyone to make a romantic and/or creative wish. Because Neptune is your ruler, this transit is especially strong for you. It’s time to listen to your dreams and to look inside for creative solutions to life’s problems. It’s also a time when you can heal existing relationships or possibly meet someone new.

March 27-28 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. All eyes turn towards you, so be sure to show your best face. This is the time of the lunar month when you get an extra boost of physical energy, when things play in your style, so you don’t have to strain. This is a really good time of the month to get noticed, so get out there and take charge. The spotlight turns up, and you’re on stage–perform! Your timing should be perfect, and those around you should find you most spontaneous and alive. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

March 29 New Moon in Aries (Total Solar Eclipse) in your solar second house affects you until the next New Moon (and beyond, because it’s an eclipse–a more potent New Moon). Heightened sensitivity to the world of the five senses, to your physical environment, and to the security you gain from the solid ground you have built for yourself is in order for this period of time.

Attunement to, and appreciation of, the physical world of the senses is the focus, and this is a time to start fresh in terms of how you arrange your life in order to feel a sense of value and worthiness. Financial issues come into focus. Setting realistic financial goals, as well as formulating such things as budgets and other sensible financial planning projects, will be favored during this time. Discovering ways to increase your income is featured. It is also a wonderful time for taking moments to pleasure yourself through earthy, tactile, and comforting endeavors.

March 29-30 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

Pisces (Born March 2 to March 11) and Pisces Ascendant 10 to 20 degrees Pisces:

February 2006: Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

February

Overview. You’re feeling like hiding yourself away this month, and that’s just fine. Take it easy, enjoy a break from the hectic pace of life, and understand that next month is your time to shine. Opportunities for love can be discovered through friendships and group activities, particularly around the time of the New Moon on the 12th. Relationships with lovers, siblings, and neighbors improve considerably this month. Impassioned conversations, and much mental activity are featured in February. Look for income opportunities in the communications fields, and if a sibling or neighbor has a financial idea, listen closely, especially around the 9th.

Highlights:

January 29 New Moon in Aquarius in your solar twelfth house. This is a period of review, letting go, and recharging your spiritual and, in effect, physical “batteries”. Focus for the next few weeks is on fulfillment through service, empathy, and awareness of other’s needs; but it can also be a time of withdrawal and some sort of retreat in a social sense, depending on your personal and natural predisposition. Some kind of soul-searching is in order, and the urge to find some level of emotional peace of mind will be apparent. This is a more sensitive position of the New Moon, and it is best to find some sort of peace for the soul in preparation for the New Moon in the first house at the end of the montha period that is more active and busy than this one.

January 31-February 1 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best face forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

February 1 Your ruler, Neptune, conjuncts Mercury and squares Jupiter, suggesting that you might experience information overload or you are especially mentally busy.

February 3-4 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

February 9-10 After a lengthy Venus retrograde cycle, this is our first good chance at meeting someone new or improving existing relationships. The Moon is in Cancer in your solar fifth house of romance and pleasure, so this is an especially good opportunity for you.

February 12 Full Moon in Leo in your solar sixth house. If you aren’t finally achieving something from your diet or exercise regimen, ask yourself why not. This is the time you should be really getting things together and it should be starting to pay off. However, avoid excess and going over the top right now, as you may feel you can do more — and maybe eat more — than you really should. At work, you may feel a little overbooked as tasks multiply and time is short to complete them. Once you’ve put on the finishing touches, you’ll be able to stand back and take pride in your accomplishments. A good time for an office party, if you can concoct a good excuse for one. In general right now, celebrate finished tasks.

February 14 An extremely creative day when ideas seem to come out of the blue, and we are strategic enough to apply them.

February 14-15 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor.

Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

February 17 From approximately 1:30 PM EST and through the night, a love opportunity. The Moon is in relationship-oriented Libra, and we are at our charming best.

February 18 Your ruler, Neptune, confronts fiery Mars today. Buried anger and frustration may get the best of you right now. Try your best to work things out in a positive manner.

February 21-22 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

Pisces (Born March 2 to 11) and Pisces Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Pisces:

January 2006: Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

January

Overview. This year, Jupiter is in a harmonious trine to your Sun, and mid-month, Mercury, Mars, and Neptune are involved in the configuration. Opportunities are there for the taking. Keep your eyes open! Travel, self-expression, and communication are highlights. Look for opportunities in your social circle, as well as any associations with groups that you may have.

This month, you are far from self-centered. Your thoughts and focus are on your friendships and your place in the world within the context of a group and of society in general. Romantic opportunities are likely to present themselves, especially around the Full Moon mid-month.

Your ruling planet, Neptune, aligns with Jupiter and Venus in declination, and this configuration suggests a rather “lucky” month. Still, because Venus is retrograde, be careful about beginning any major new financial or romantic association. Connections may be made this month (especially with regards to past friends and group associations), but action should be held off until after February 3rd.

Highlights:

December 31-January 1 New Moon in Capricorn, sets a theme for the month ahead. Make a resolution concerning commitment to your career goals on December 31st to January 1st. Think of ways to add more structure and organization to your life.

This New Moon occurs in your solar eleventh house. The eleventh house is a house associated with networking, making contact, group activities, and income earned from business. With the New Moon here, focus is on making contacts and reaching out to others in both a social and professional sense. It’s a time to turn inner restlessness into fruitful contact with others.

Heightened awareness of your position in life within the context of the group, rather than through self-centered focus, is probable with this position of the New Moon, as well as a need for social security. Goals that involve networking, making connections with others, joining or strengthening ties in a group project/activity, and nurturing good will are the focus this month.

January 4 Your ruler, Neptune, forms a tense aspect with Mercury, suggesting that you might suffer from confusing communications and misunderstandings today, likely because you are experiencing information overload and can’t quite sort everything out. What you say, or what you don’t say, today can get you into hot water. Put off important decisions for now.

January 4-5 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best face forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

January 6-7 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

January 8 From 4:35 PM EST to midnight, it’s a good time for business affairs, or making small purchases. Do remember, however, that Venus is retrograde the entire month of January, so hold off, if you can, on major purchases, financial initiatives, or starting new love affairs.

January 13 A power day for you. Your communication skills are through the roof. You could be the recipient of pleasant news, an invitation, or you might make an important new contact.

January 13-14 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. You have an emotional need for recreation. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

January 14 Full Moon in Cancer in your solar fifth house. Spontaneity is the watchword right now, and it’s time to kick back and have some fun, especially with close friends and children. If you’re at a party and go just a little bit over the top, you will likely be in good company, as this is a general time of celebration for all. Passion and intensity, on any topic you choose, can run rampant and enthusiasm overflows. If you’re trying to get business done, you’ll be swimming against the tide, so if you have the option, just go with the flow. If you’re working on a creative project, make sure you get the product preserved for posterity — on paper, on film, on tape, on CD. If you’re just going to be pleasantly out to lunch, don’t bother, just enjoy.

January 18 Your ruler, Neptune, confronts fiery Mars today. Buried anger and frustration may get the best of you right now. Try your best to work things out in a positive manner.

January 18-19 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

January 19 From 6 AM to 2PM EST, a great time to get organized on the job, or to start a diet, physical activity, or health regime. Finish up odds and ends, attend to details, and then breathe a sigh of uncluttered relief.

January 23 Venus trine Mars today and affects your eleventh and third solar houses. An opportunity to express yourself creatively comes through the written word or through group associations. This is an excellent day for you in terms of personal magnetism and the power of attraction.

January 25-26 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

January 29 New Moon in Aquarius in your solar twelfth house. This is a period of review, letting go, and recharging one’s spiritual and, in effect, physical “batteries”. Focus, now, is on fulfillment through service, empathy, and awareness of other’s needs; but it can also be a time of withdrawal and some sort of retreat in a social sense, depending on your personal and natural predisposition. Some kind of soul-searching is in order, and the urge to find some level of emotional peace of mind will be apparent. This is a more sensitive position of the New Moon, and it is best to find some sort of peace for the soul in preparation for the New Moon in the first house at the end of the month–a period that is more active and busy than this one.

Pisces (Born March 12 to 20)
AND Pisces Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Pisces:

December 2006: Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

December

Overview. Until the 12th, the Sun puts a spotlight on your adventure sector. This transit that started in November finds you at your most adventurous and philosophical. Routine tends to bother you now, as you instinctively are drawn towards anything that brings you up and out of the mundane.

You feel more fulfilled when you expand your horizons during this cycle. This can be a restless time, and it could also be a little self-indulgent. As long as you don’t fall into the trap of blind optimism, it’s a very pleasant time when you have the guts to do something different and enjoy yourself. You are also in the position to gain more of an overall perspective on your life and on your goals.

From the 12th, the Sun illuminates your solar tenth house–the most visible sector in your chart. It’s a time when matters regarding your reputation, career, and public standing come to the fore–the time of year when you are most wrapped up in “taking care of business”, duties and responsibilities, and professional concerns.

More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your “place” in the outer world, your reputation, and your standing in society. This is the time when you are more interested in, and focused on, accomplishing something important. Your competency is something that you are especially sensitive to during this cycle. You want to shine. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes with it. Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.

While you begin the month with a real sense of adventure and the urge to expand your horizons, focus shifts to more professional concerns. You are especially accountable for your actions in the second half of the month. Everyone seems to be looking over your shoulder, observing what you do and what you are capable of. This is one of the busiest times of the year professionally, when you are in high demand. Support from behind the scenes or from an unlikely source is likely to come to you. Take advantage of the 10th, when you are recognized for the work you have done, and the 19th, when a partner opportunity arises.

In the first half of the month, enthusiastic energy as well as a brand new, exciting perspective is brought to your life experiences. This can come by way of a new learning or teaching opportunity, a trip, an invitation, or contact with someone who expands your life view. Inspiration can also come through a conversation, reading a book, or other such means. However it arrives, inspiration is felt strongly now.
A renewed sense of purposefulness derived from a more expansive, broader outlook on life is with you now. This newfound vigor can mean a very hectic but energizing schedule, an inspiring and revealing conversation, or a new opportunity for expanding your horizons through travel or higher learning.

This month, three inner planets (the Sun, Mercury, and Venus) align with Pluto and also form a harmonious trine to Saturn. With Saturn in your solar sixth and Pluto in your solar tenth, this can be a highly productive period. Your sometimes Herculean efforts, paying close attention to performance and to details, will not go unrewarded! Some of your most natural talents–the things that come easy–also meet with reward and acceptance.

Sometimes in life, those with their nose to the grindstone can be overlooked. Not so for you now and into 2007. The details and the “little things” make all the difference. Perfecting your particular craft is natural now. Some of you may find that your career is moving towards a more service-oriented direction. This link is a long-term trend that occurs again next August and is in effect until then. Determination, perseverance, and a deep sense of purposefulness are brought to your professional life–you are able to establish long-term, meaningful professional ties. The dates in December when you could see initial benefits, or at least hints of things to come, occur on the 6-8, 16-18, and 24-25.

Your ruler, Neptune, forms some very pleasing aspects this month, and on the days that it does, you are likely to feel supported, appreciated, inspired, and gently challenged. These periods are the 1st, 9-10, 19, and 30-31. The 1st brings easy acceptance, particularly on a professional level, but it also extends to personal pursuits.

The 9-10 finds you recognized for your competency, authority, or sense of responsibility. It’s feel-good energy. Good news or a rewarding conversation could come your way on the 19th. It’s also an opportune time to present your ideas. The 30-31 is a strong period for all personal initiatives, as well as for finances. Many positive connections between your tenth house and twelfth house suggests that work done behind the scenes may be revealed or incorporated into your career or public life. Past efforts pay off now. Red flag periods–when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior, occur on the 12-13 and 29. Avoid scheduling important events on these days, if you can.

This is an excellent period for personal finances, and for taking responsibility for what you own and earn. The most opportune periods of the month for finances include the 9-12 and 27-31. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 20-22. Financial challenges are possible now.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 6, 16, and 25. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. Issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 11, 19, and 27. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. For more serious partnerships, very positive energy is with you in December. Long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 9-10, 12, and 25. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 4, 15, 22, and 29.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 9-10 and 16-18. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 2-3, 12-14, 24, and 31, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation are exceptionally strong this month, and are most favorable on the 9-12 and 26-27.

While Venus is in your tenth house from the 3-27, you are most charming and well-received on the job. Your responsibility and authority are likeable qualities now, making this a favorable period overall for schmoozing with those in a higher position than you, as well as for negotiations or social activities related to business. Venus is charming, friendly, and affectionate, and her presence in your career and reputation sector brings social opportunities to your career. You are coming across well at work now, and romantic opportunities, or simply more chances to socialize and network, are likely. The areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through social and professional life. You are socially ambitious right now, and success may come though your good managerial qualities or some form of artistic talent, or, indirectly through your marriage partner. People who turn your head during this cycle are those who have social status, or who come across as especially competent.

Mercury transits your adventure sector until the 21st. This is a good time to plan or perhaps take a journey. Travel and exposure to new ideas and ways of thinking about the world interest you now. You may meet and learn from someone from another culture or with significantly different beliefs and experiences than your own. Philosophical discussions or studies are also on the agenda. Your inclination during this cycle is to think about the “big picture” rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life.

Mercury is in your career and reputation from the 21st, bringing rational and logical energy to your public life. You tend to think about your position or standing on a professional level more frequently during this cycle. You are likely doing some multi-tasking regarding career and business matters, as your career requires more communication than usual. You speak with authority during this cycle, and you are more accountable than usual for what (and how) you communicate. Your ideas may come into public view now. Use the power of words to influence authority figures. You might draw upon your executive ability now. It’s an excellent period in which to analyze career strategies, moves, and prospects. Negative use of this influence would be to worry unnecessarily about your reputation and responsibilities.

Mars activates your ninth house all month. It’s a fabulous time for promoting your ideas and beliefs, although coming on too strong could work against you, particularly around the 20th itself. If you can’t travel, you’ll feel like doing so, or at least travel in your mind, simply because you have a great urge to expand your horizons in some manner. Energies thrown toward recreation, travel, or just cooking up great new ideas are well spent and serve to refresh and renew your vitality. Creative projects can flourish with your added confidence and enthusiasm now. You are bent on doing something different or “bigger” than you normally would. If you can’t find an outlet for this energy, you could feel quite restless.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 1-6, when you feel energetically supported by life’s circumstances and when you are naturally confident without coming on too strong; and the 27-31, when your charm is especially well-received.

Highlights:

December 1-2 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

December 2-3 Hard aspects operative now include Sun-Uranus, Venus-Chiron, and Mercury-Saturn. Negative thinking and expectations, as well as a generally rebellious mood, are not conducive to easy relating. Avoid pushing matters just now, particularly with a close partner or co-worker. Speculative pursuits should be saved for a better date.

December 4 Full Moon in Gemini in your solar third house. Some sort of fulfillment, culmination, or revelation regarding your desires or new initiatives at the last New Moon on November 20th occurs now. The last two weeks have found you somewhat restless and in need of more from life than the mundane. Now the mundane is catching up with you. Errands need to be run, people are talking your ear off, you need to do some paperwork and answer calls. An important document could arrive, or a sudden need to run an important errand or to take a short trip could be part of the picture. You are pushed to find a balance now. Do what needs to be done so that you can free yourself up for more adventurous and fulfilling activities.

December 6-8 Venus joins with Pluto and trines Saturn. Passions are strong and intense, but controlled. A new sense of responsibility in our social relationships is with us, and it’s of a pleasant variety–we feel renewed, committed, and dedicated. Solid proof of commitment gives us a deep feeling of purposefulness and meaning. An opportunity to stabilize and strengthen a social or romantic bond arises now. In your case, this configuration occurs in your career, work, and health sectors, making this a strong opportunity period for professional and productivity matters. Relationships are imbued with a deep sense of trust, maturity, and respect now, particularly those with authority or co-workers. Sincerity and depth are most important to you just now in your relationships, particularly professional ones. New responsibilities concerning your commitments to your ambitions and to your job or health and fitness may arrive now, but they give you a strong sense of meaning and purposefulness. This is an outstanding period for committing to a nutrition, fitness, or other health regime. This is also a strong opportunity period for shared finances (loans, taxes, or any money that doesn’t come directly from personal efforts) as well as communications of all kinds.

December 7-8 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

December 9-12 Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter align, and the Sun sextiles Neptune. Tremendous enthusiasm, newfound vigor, and optimism characterize this period. We are inspired, hungry for new experiences, and eager to share our ideas with others. Enthusiastic energy as well as a brand new, exciting perspective is brought to your life experiences. This can come by way of a new learning or teaching opportunity, a trip, an invitation, or contact with someone who expands your life view. Inspiration can also come through a conversation, reading a book, or other such means. However it arrives, inspiration is felt strongly now. A renewed sense of purposefulness derived from a more expansive, broader outlook on life is with you now. This newfound vigor can mean a very hectic but energizing schedule, an inspiring and revealing conversation, or a new opportunity for expanding your horizons through travel or higher learning.

December 12-13 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

December 15-18 The Sun joins with Pluto and trines Saturn; Mercury squares Uranus; Venus sesquiquadrates Saturn. The best way to use this energy to your advantage would be to focus on your commitment to your long-term goals. Hold off on major decision-making, saving it for a more auspicious time. Working on projects already in progress with an eye to your future is best now; research is especially rewarding. Ideally, you should be focusing on career and reputation objectives. Wait until after the New Moon on the 20th, however, to begin new initiatives, particularly those that involve home and family, communications, and joint finances. Focus on research for the time being. Avoid financial initiatives if possible. While you may be able to solidify a work matter now, family and partnership matters may be unpredictable at best, and you could also be taken off guard by new responsibilities with joint finances.

December 19-20 Venus sextiles Uranus and Mercury sextiles Neptune. Pay special attention to your intuition now. We happily embrace all that is new, unusual, and out-of-the-ordinary during this period. For you, this is a strong period for joint finances, or any money that comes from sources other than your personal income, communications, family and home matters, and partnerships. Strong and pleasant communications from or about a friend is likely. This is an excellent period for attracting or strengthening a partnership.

December 20 New Moon in late Sagittarius in your solar tenth house affects you until the next New Moon. This New Moon carries with it the potential for tremendous growth and transformation. This cycle represents an opportunity to find ways to transcend the mundane details of day-to-day life and nurture our faith, commitment, hope, and vision. Heightened sensitivity to your standing in society and your goals for constructive progress are highlighted this month. It’s a good time to develop new business plans and goals, assuming the New Moon is not very afflicted, and a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your career goals is a potential. It is a time to focus on the elements of your personality that you are projecting to society and as a professional. Goals for self-mastery and self-discipline should be made at this time. This is a phase when you will be busy with career and/or public responsibilities.

December 20-21 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

December 21-22 Mars squares Uranus. It’s challenging to focus on any one particular task. Rebelliousness and impatience with rules and restrictions could get the best of us. For you, there could be some tension regarding the demands of career getting in the way of your personal initiatives. Unpredictable financial matters could leave you feeling insecure or frustrated. Avoid stirring up more trouble than necessary now–many people aren’t in the most cooperative of moods.

December 24-25 Mercury joins with Pluto and trines Saturn. This is a time when we may share ideas, feelings, or thoughts that we normally keep hidden. Research brings rewards, new insights into old problems invites progress, and the uncovering of previously hidden information is inspiring. Thoughts, ideas, and communications are more intense and focused. We are more able, and motivated, to find hidden meanings and to cut to the chase. Efficiency and relevancy become important. This is an especially strong period for you in terms of gaining insight into your career and reputation. An eye-opening conversation or discovery may figure now. Very strong opportunities for family, home, and partnerships or negotiations arise now.

December 26-27 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

December 28-29 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

December 28-29 Hard aspects operative now include Venus-Jupiter and Mercury-Neptune. Jupiter sextiles Chiron. This is a dreamy period when pie-in-the-sky thinking tends to dominate. Excess is a strong inclination, with little thought about the consequences! While you may enjoy some wonderful professional connections, you could be inclined to feel misunderstood on a personal level. Enjoy yourself, but avoid going over the top.
