"I don't believe in astrology; I'm a Sagittarius and we're skeptical."

Nothing better sums up our penchant for knowing the unknown like the above quotation. Astrology can be used as a powerful-and fun-tool for understanding ourselves, others, and the world around us. Well, no one can really predict the future with perfection but then a forecast- good or bad- can alert us about the impending events in our life and help us brace up for the uncertain. What does astrology have to say about us, our loved ones, is pure fun. The forecasts often help us discover ourselves.

AQUARIUS
(Jan. 21 -Feb. 19)

Family:

Serve, solve and rescue may be the energy you field the most the 26/27th as you 'calming the panicked' and soothing the emotionally injured is likely, especially IF you have Virgo, Gemini, Pisces, Scorpio or Capricorn members in your close circle. Be seen as 'highly supportive' of a spouse or risk problems with others members, especially if you are dealing with a blended or second family. Avoid rendering any opinions publicly. Handing 'one challenge/issue at a time' the 28th and 'defuse' any 'domino effect' situations. A long talk the 30th may need 'strong self control' as anything 'escalating out of control' may end up shedding a very 'bad light on you.'

Love:

Romance does well all week for single Totters but may hold a few pit falls for paired ones; stand by your love partner the 26/27ty, be all ears the 28th, show a willingness to be reasonable the 30th and engage in a 'solid compromise' the 1st for a happy week in relationship status. Be very careful with any ex's, extended family or in-law situations this week.

Friendship:

Your friends are treasures to you and you value them above all else in life. No one will 'throw themselves under a bus' faster than you IF a pal is being 'ganged up on.' Just ONE thing you need to keep in mind this week: know the facts before you 'go public' or make any 'grand gestures.' Once you are clear on that; be the pal you love to be. Be willing to 'tell a buddy the truth' the 30th.

Career:

Your insights are keen this week and your ESP is in full blossom the 26th and 1st. Respect your gut and follow it to profit by exploiting opportunity but just make sure you are being given all the 'facts/info' or do some digging of your own until you get it. You are vulnerable to accidents the PM of the 26th so if you work around heavy equipment or dangerous situations, be 'frosty and on top of things' while following ALL the rules for safety. Your powers of negotiation are super keen the 27th to 29th and you may ferret out mistakes by others before proceeding the 28th. Answer all communications quickly the 30th.

Finances:

Rather good but likely costly

PISCES
(Feb. 20-Mar. 20)

Family:

Having someone 'dis' you or your family the 26th is possible and needs to be 'stopped in its tracks' with the right response. Mistakes in communications are possible the 27/28th and need to be rectified quickly, especially if Cancer, Virgo, Gemini, Pisces or Aquarius members are involved. A fun gathering the 30th to 1st can spike spending but may be 'well worth it' in the long run, especially if youth, birth or weddings are involved. Announcements at gatherings may 'take you by surprise.' Make sure your 'reaction' is well understood.

Love:

Romance does rather well this week once we clear the 26/27th. For Fish who encounter misunderstandings OR, worse yet, who discover some level of 'scandalous or disturbing news/info' time and effort may be needed before making any 'assumptions' and clear up emotional confusion and concern 'right away.' For those of you who miss this one, the rest of the week appears busy and promising but may require some level of 'patience' on your part, especially if you are trying to 'grow a new/newer relationship.'

Friendship:

Friends appears supportive and helpful through any controversy or disappointment this week, especially if you are one of the unlucky Fish to bite into the aspects indicated for the 26th. This is a week where you may easily find out 'who your REAL friends are.' Take it as a typical life lesson if you DO hit this one and move on quickly; don't ruminate. A piece of 'exciting news' may launch a celebration with/for a pal near the 28/29th.

Career:

A huge opportunity may be hidden in small problem the 26th; make the most of it by massaging it into something that benefits you. Aries, Scorpio, Virgo and Libra personalities may help to contribute success to a project the 26th to 29th. Be seen as 'practical' the 30th and show yourself to be a real 'team player' by focusing on the 'needs of the many' the 30/31st. IF you work the weekend, travel may be involved.

Finances:

Promising

ARIES
(Mar. 21- April 20)

Family:

This is a week where control is a BIG issue; control your impulses, emotions, actions/words and the projection of your 'image' through everything from what you do and say to what you FAIL to do or say. Sending out the right 'metered' response is essential, especially the 26th, 29th late in the day, the 30th ALL day and the later hours of the 1st. Be seen as fair and equal, especially in dealings with Leo, Aries, Virgo, Scorpio and Libra members.

Love:

Romance may take a serious nose dive IF the wrong things are done or said and 'termination' status is possible, especially near the 29th to 31st. Use self control with your thinking, especially in dealings with Aquarius, Pisces, Leo, other Rams and Libra. Single Aries may find promising hunting grounds near the 26th all day, evenings of the 28th and 31st and mid day the 29th.

Friendship:

Several long talks, some 'rescue/save/salvage' efforts and a possible 'clash' with/over pals near the 29th to 30th are possible, especially with/over Libra, Scorpio, Pisces, Aries or Cancer pals. Impatience is a common energy this week and you may encounter it WITH a pal or suffer from it yourself due to the actions/words OF a buddy.

Career:

Several mistakes are possible mid day on the 26th, especially where dealing with older personalities, old projects or 'resurfacing challenges' that stem from as far back as Feb or April. On a bright note, there are some Rams who are slated for 'huge financial opportunities' the 26th, especially early to mid morning as any 'omens' that surface can be 'telling' especially if Sagittarius, other Rams, Leo or Aquarius are involved. Two may run concurrent. A 'fast meeting/discussion' that may be 'last minute' the 27th can bring a 'promising situation' into your control. Double check ALL calculations and communications the 29th for 'flaws.'

Finances:

Rather good

TAURUS
(Apr. 21- may 21)

Family:

A wide range of 'duties' and needs appear to strike near the 27th and may have you in a slight 'scramble' to accommodate and please but be prepared for some 'hefty spending' on necessities and possibly 'entertainment' needs that can include weddings, birthdays and 'showing someone a good time.' A long talk near the 28/29th and/or 31/1st appears to solve some issues/problems that may relate to discipline, children, assigning of finances and/or behavior.

Love:

Romantic love may be slightly challenging this week as often your motives and attitudes can be 'misunderstood.' Be clear and fix misconceptions fast; awareness is essential so 'pay attention.' Other forms of love appear rich and enjoyable with strong bonds forming closer ties, especially with/between youth/children.

Friendship:

Bulls 'growing friendships' may see some milestone growth this week as shared hobbies/activities form stronger bonds and raise 'next level' advances. New friends are indicated for the 30/31st and may come in through 'a friend of a friend' and can indicate future income.

Career:

Cooperation sinks poorly the 26/27th but snaps back up nicely the 28/29th to fix just about anything that was problematic or 'behind schedule.' Doors open on any kind of 'financial structuring' and good momentum the 29th may help carry success a long way, especially IF later Aug into mid Sept is a target zone or deadline. Travel may be required the 30/31st and/or entertaining visiting dignitaries.

Finances:

Promising, big time.

GEMINI
(May 22-June 21)

Family:

Gossip and/or scandalous news may surface the 26th and while it is most likely 'on a global or national level' smaller pockets of problem areas can taint your corner of the world. Keep members 'socially minded' and focused on the image they project within the community. Behavior may rank high on your awareness radar this week. You can gain support for your ideas and cooperation best the 29/30th but it wise to know you are also prone to 'clouded judgment' the 30th, especially as it relates to 'handing out discipline.' Think twice before dealings with Sagittarius, Aries, Virgo, Gemini and Pisces.

Love:

Romance is NOT on solid, predictable ground this week and there appear to be two main trouble spots; the 26th when bogus info is highly likely and the 29th to 31st when you are prone to 'over react' and/or deal 'disproportionately' with whatever credible situations MAY arise. Take your time, know your subject matter and slather 'benefit of the doubt' around liberally. This is NOT a good hunting week for singles as 'what you see is likely NOT to be what you get.'

Friendship:

This is the place to spend your free time with shared sports and hobbies. Sidle up to pals like Aquarius, Libra, other Twins, Leo and Aries and enjoy 'getting away' from current stressors and pressures. IF you chose to 'stand behind' a pal near the 26th to 28th, make sure you know all the facts before you 'make a public statement/appearance' of it.

Career:

Strictly 'professional all the way' is your mantra this week, especially the 26/27th and again the 29/30th. I can not stress this one enough as it comes with my highest warning ***. Be clear, make sound choices and follow all 'red tape' protocol completely as variance from 'normal channels' may have repercussions that are sever, costly and damage future credibility. Navigating profit is good but must be done 'strictly by the book' this week.

Finances:

Fair to good

CANCER
(June 22-July 22)

Family:

Your mood may become somber quickly IF anything 'threatens' a member, especially elders/parents, youth of any sign or Leo, Aries, Aquarius, Libra or Pisces members. Stand behind a member and encourage family unity but get to the bottom and the truth quickly to see it through the rest of the way properly; this is NOT a week for denial as it can be damaging AND costly in the long run. Announcements of weddings, changes, moves, upgrades, employment and births are highly likely as the recent eclipse window [6/26 to 7/11] may have opened strong change within Cancer member's families.

Love:

Romance holds high potential for emotion this week and it appear to be very 'lose cannon' in nature as anything from 'soup to nuts' may unfold for the Crab, especially IF paired to Capricorn, Libra, Aries, Scorpio or Taurus. Some financial challenges ARE going to be likely but focus on solving them first and then the blame or cause of them later. Long talks are likely near the 26th, 28th and 30/31st. See them 'through.'

Friendship:

Friends are a wonderful source of support and replenishing this week. Schedule times 'peppered' throughout your week so you can gain perspective, vent, share or find the understanding you need to continue to sort and make 'the right choices.' RUN, do not walk, to your nearest 'trusted soul' IF issues arise the 26th that feel overwhelming and the 30th that are 'confusing or unclear.'

Career:

Older, well established or experienced personalities may be 'invaluable' to you this week. Seek out mentored advice quickly the 26th if there is any 'level of threat' at all, especially if 'gossip or scandal' are afoot. Avoid water cooler gossip and being perceived as any part of a 'faction of unhappy' personalities. Your compassion and eagerness to 'help' may 'set you up' and make you vulnerable by the 28/29th. Be "P.C." all week.

Finances:

Fair only

LEO
(July 23-Aug 22)

Family:

Personal fatigue, minor illness/injury and vulnerabilities of a 'variety of kinds' are possible the 26/27th and can 'play out' in various arenas. You should know early in the week which 'area' you are likely to hit first, especially IF 'bad news' from or about a member hits Dodge. There are very promising trends in career/income the 26th that may be pitted against equally threatening 'personal life' situations. Be clear, honest and jump on things quickly, especially the 26th, 28th and 30/31st.

Love:

Romance appears 'promising for the most part' this week and may NOT be an area of problem for most Lions, in fact, it may be a zone of comfort for those who 'get hit' in other areas. Finding closer ties developing is likely, even where controversy and challenge are absent from the weekly tends. Singles hit strong potential the 28/29th in the evenings and all day the 31st.

Friendship:

New friends are very likely this week and appear to come in through 'existing old pals' and during any kind of 'gatherings' impromptu or not. Cheerful attitudes, strong trends of 'volunteered support' and enjoyable sharing of hobbies, sports and passions dot the week.

Career:

Image is essential the 26th as you may 'send out messages' on all levels; aware or not. Your manner of dress, speech, focus to detail and 'organized presentations' may be speak volumes to what appears to be a bevy of 'long range, future opportunities' that surface 'quickly and possibly out of no where' at the last moment. A 'fast or impromptu meeting' near the 29/30th can be very beneficial and 'long range' success is indicated IF one such situation/s manifests.

Finances:

Very promising

VIRGO
(Aug. 23 -Sept. 23)

Family:

Fear and insecurity energy may 'well up, pool or rise' early in the week and financial status and 'social standing/image' appear to be the chief cause. Long talks, spiced with some 'bitter comments' are possible and Virgins with, 'ex's, extended or blended' families rank first on this hit list. Remain calm, focus on facts not speculations and consider individuals, their feelings and needs before 'how things look' to others. An unwise judgment call near the 29th to 31st can 'split members over an issue.' Avoid allow ANY 'taking sides' situation to develop; this comes with my highest warning ***.

Love:

Romance needs strong moral fiber this week; 'do the right thing' is a heavy message, especially near the 27/28th and again the 30th. Do not allow the comments, opinions or 'bogus speculations of others' to determine your words or actions. Great care needs to be used if any challenge whatsoever arises within any precious relationship this week; romantic love or NOT.

Friendship:

Friends may try very hard to support, contribute, rescue or protect this week, especially near the events of the 26th to 28th, the 30/31st or with/over your reaction to them. Be sure you supply pals with an 'unbiased appraisal' of only 'the facts' lest later you be accused of 'having painted a worse or erroneous picture' for them. Double check a judgment call the 30th with a pal before moving on/ahead with reactions or decisions based upon it.

Career:

VERY careful 'steps' this week will insure you avoid mistakes, do not send out the wrong message or image and protect yourself from 'buck passing' blame or loss of profit/income. Focus on 'one issue at a time' the 28th as multi tasking and distractions may lead to serious loss/risk. A 'bad judgment call' the 30th can be avoided simply by 'checking with an experienced or tenured' source BEFORE proceeding.

Finances:

Actually, rather good, given the threat potential out there.

LIBRA
(Sept. 24 -Oct. 23)

Family:

You live to serve, you like helping others and you very much just want 'harmony and cheer' this week but any Aries, Virgo or Gemini members could challenge your sense of order and fairness. Use great patience with them, especially the 'extreme old or young' varieties. Impractical choices may be made near the 29th to 31st and can drive spending beyond what is comfortable for yourself or a partner, especially IF you are paired to Aries, Leo, Libra, Pisces or Cancer. A long talk near the 31/1st appears to 'end a misconception/mistake.'

Love:

Romance does well this week as you tend to 'sparkle' with both creative energy and the desire to 'make things wonderful' for a cherished love interest. While you are planning and plotting to surprise and impress, remember that your current actions MAY be taken the wrong way, especially if you are being glib, secretive or coy. Single Scales hit hot pay dirt near the 29th to 1st. Long range success IS likely.

Friendship:

Your week appears littered with sharing, caring and enjoyable exchanges, especially with Leo, Libra, Aries, Cancer, Pisces and Aquarius pals, particularly those you share common hobbies and passions with. Co ventures appear to go very well, especially near the 27/28th and the 31st. Stand up for or behind a pal the 26th and/or 30th to 1st may come at a small to reasonable financial cost but be well worth it. Serving at weddings, parties and celebrations seems a likely source.

Career:

You appear to 'put a great deal of effort' into the 26/27th for a variety of reasons and some level of 'disappointment' is potential there, especially IF Gemini, Virgo, Pisces, Aquarius or Leo is involved. Give it time to work itself out and STAY out of any 'complications' that arise which you are NOT responsible for. Keep 'personal or emotional' opinions or subjects out of the work place the 28/29th. Do not take 'too strong of a stand' on issues the 30th, especially if power people are involved.

Finances:

Fair to good

SCORPIO
(Oct. 24 - Nov. 22)

Family:

I must stress that only 'a small cross section' of you may hit this upcoming advice; A 'struggle' between your ego and the 'status quo' APPEARS to be slated for the 26th and may center around the unfair or erroneous words of another member. Handle this one with kid leather gloves, especially IF Gemini, Virgo, Aquarius, Pisces, Leo or Aries members are involved. You could look bad for a length of time before the truth surfaces and 'damage' in the 'mean time' can be almost irreversible. This is NOT a 'fortunate week' for you and can have several pit falls, especially if any level of 'deception' is afoot. Handle any situations where 'you must prove' carefully and wait for the support you need or the 'surfacing of facts' which are likely to come as soon as the 29/30th or as far out as LATE OCT~! For those of you who don't hit this one; Long talks and enjoyable gatherings are indicated the 28th and 30/31st. Spending may go on the rise to host or entertain.

Love:

Romance appears to be an exciting and enjoyable 'hiding place' for those Stingers who have any level of 'challenge' this week. IF your love interest has a tough week, gets bad news or is 'thrown in a bad light' for any reason, you'd best be seen as supportive and understanding or you may suffer later down the line 'when it's all over.'

Friendship:

New friends are likely to come in through your career or networking areas and can be most helpful later near the end of Oct into Nov or as far out as Feb/March '11. Contacts of 'industry insiders' or those who share 'similar career paths' appear to help the most, especially if they are Taurus, Scorpio, Cancer, Aries, Libra or Sagittarius.

Career:

Some level of 'gossip or scandal' may touch your world the 26th and while this one is more likely to be national or global, some of you may hit that 'my part of the world' potential. Choose your companions carefully and do not be seen as 'passing along' any bogus info or being included in any 'unhappy faction' of people. Take care of 'one issue at a time' the 28th and be seen as 'loyal and devoted' to a project or goal. You gain your best support from power/money people the 30th, just 'for the asking.'

Finances:

Rather good

SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 23 -Dec. 21)

Family:

Excellent news from or about a member is likely the 26th and may launch a celebration. Financial increase potential heads the list, especially IF Leo, Sagittarius or Aries members are involved. Expansion of family is indicated and news about births, weddings and engagements is typical. Invitations to travel or having to entertain visitors may signal a hike in spending, especially near the 26th, 29th and 31/1st. Long talks that reveal a 'great deal of unknown info' are likely near the 29/30th.

Love:

Romance does well overall this week with single Arches coming out best with hot 'new hook up' potential the 26/27th all day and evenings of the 28th and 30th and upgrades to more serious and committed status for paired Sags littering the whole week~! Long talks that garner 'deep contentment' are indicated the evenings of the 28th and 30th, especially if paired to Aries, Cancer, Libra, Pisces, Leo, Aquarius or other Sags.

Friendship:

New friends may also be in the offing and reconnecting with old pals you've 'not seen for a long time' is likely near the 29th to 31st. An unwise decision early on the 30th can be quickly undone but only IF you tactfully explain to a good pal what the problem is and find a compromise that makes you both 'feel good about it all.'

Career:

You show huge opportunities arising out of the most common or simple of situations the 26th and the difference between being 'typical' and 'hugely successful' may be more in your hands than you realize. Jump on it, stay with it and 'massage it' into as much as you ethically and humanly can! Being 'entrusted' is likely this week and while it may LOOK like buck passing, even if it is, it MAY be an opportunity in disguise. Be willing to 'tend the phones' while coworkers are gone, especially if you work in a commission based or free lance situation. Travel is very likely this week and even if it is costly to do so, can signal huge profit potential.

Finances:

Promising

CAPRICORN
(Dec 22.- Jan. 20)

Family:

Your ego may be 'at risk' IF you 'pit it against some ongoing circumstance.' Make the choice to do the right thing, what is best for all concerned or what is most practical, and give your ego the boot the 26th. Emotional decisions, especially those that involve health, medical attention [even for pets] and education may not come easy and 'the greater good' must be the focus. Avoid 'fluff' spending the 29/30th and get members 'on board' with your way of thinking by using practical pitches. Cooperation is very poor the 31st; try and then back off and do it yourself.

Love:

Romance appears to require a LOT of talking this week and it may be heavy info exchange while you are 'getting to know' someone for you single Sea Goats and more 'emotional explanations' for those of you who are paired and hit any kind of 'bogus info, scandal or misunderstanding' especially if you are paired to Gemini, Virgo, Pisces or Aquarius. Keep it simple and you'll find 'the fix' is easy by or before the 30th.

Friendship:

Friends are a rich source of entertainment and fun this week and for those of you who have 'a typical low key week' shared hobbies and enjoyable talks appear likely but a cross section of you may be required to 'support, back or take sides' with or over a pal. Make sure you know 'all the facts' before you 'put it out there' especially if this is a career related buddy or coworker pal.

Career:

Who you know, choose to stand by, be grouped or seen with and who you share info with may be pivotal this week. Do NOT be seen as any part of an unhappy or gossiping faction. Keep your nose to the grind stone the 26/27th and 'have/render no opinion' even if ASKED! Use as tactful of an avoidance technique as you can, especially with power people. Be seen as 'responsible and reliable' the 28/29th and you may be 'entrusted' with a project or goal that has 'huge potential.'

Finances:

Rather good
