March 20-April 19
You march forward toward your new beginning, equipped with courage and fortitude. We commend you for your bravery. As you set out on your summer journey, do not forget to prepare for the worst and expect the best. Communication is important in your business and personal relationships in the beginning of the month, and lingering conflicts must be put to rest before you are free to move on in other areas of your life. Family pressures mount, and we suggest a summer vacation to a sunny spot to curb tension. Reconnect with the ones closest to you and by the end of the month, love will cater to your every want, need and desire.
April 20-May20
July provides grounding for you as you tend to the plants outside and reap the summer harvest. Family concerns and vacations occupy your mind. If you have children, consider sending them to camp and giving yourself a little self-nurturing. If you can get away, we recommend a trip of absolute indulgence in the best food, wine and spa treatments. Even your home can become the safe haven you need to survive the sweltering summer heat. Business affairs sizzle, and you are ready to embark upon new ventures. You have the energy and enthusiasm you need to enhance your cash flow, whether in commissions or bonuses. If you own a business, things may seem slow, but trust that growth is happening. You will reap the rewards of your efforts by next year if you stay focused and dedicated. Love is without doubt the absolute highlight of the summer. Reinvigorate your commitments and if single, explore your options.
May 21-June 20
Luck follows you everywhere you go. Use it wisely and always seek the opportunities that lie just beyond the ones at hand. Ask yourself, “What do I really want to achieve?” Then, seek that path. You may feel like a lone ranger this month, as you work toward better communication with others particularly in your professional settings. Family matters become extra demands, requiring your time and energy. Make lists and check every detail to avoid missteps along the way. You are ready for new beginnings in all areas of your life. Weigh the consequences carefully. Step forward one step at a time, rather than one giant leap after another. Trust that the one you love will hold your hand every inch of the way. You single Gemini’s need to focus on playtime. Leave the talk of relationships for later. Have a summer fling right now!
June 21-July 21
Happy birthday! The Universe in its Divine order is sending you on a new kind of mission, and your challenge is to follow along like a boat on a river. Run with the current, rather than against it. What does this mean in practical terms? If you have been taken off-guard by life circumstances, you have to choose to make the most of it. Take the opportunity to begin anew, and start with your home. Perhaps it is time to make some renovations, and we definitely recommend that you invest in some fabulous home furnishings. Postpone this year’s summer vacation if money is a concern, and use your resources wisely. You are in a period of growth and building. The harvest is on the horizon. In terms of love, this is your time to shine. It is the perfect time to say, “I do,” to the one you love, even if it will be a repeat performance. For you who are uninvolved, hold onto hope. A magical affair awaits.
July 22-August 22
Any lingering project that has been on the backburner now takes precedence. You can accomplish more than ever, and this summer marks a time of prolificacy. If you are an artist or writer, this means a masterpiece is near completion. Focus on creative endeavors, even if you must sacrifice a few sleepless nights. Success reaches you from every angle and like a spotlight, seems to follow your steps. If you can get out of town, we recommend the end of the month for a vacation. Work may demand that you travel for business, but see if you can find a way to incorporate a little pleasure. In matters of the heart, a special someone lights up the night in the beginning of the month. By August first, you are ready for true commitment. For you married Leos, make romance a priority and reinvigorate your relationship.
August 23-September 22.
Turn off your inner critic for the entire month. Lock him up and throw away the key. This voice inside of your head wants nothing more than to sabotage your efforts at embracing life. Why worry when so many lovely things are happening for you? You have renewed energy and vitality. Seek relationships with those who feed your adventurous side and avoid any negative individuals. You may have felt trapped or restricted off and on this summer, but as the month nears a close, you move forward with vigor and determination. Travel plans may be delayed, which brings some upset to the ones you love. Attend to your responsibilities with joy, and know that timing is truly one of those Divine things over which we have little control. Let’s face it, life would not be nearly as entertaining without those little mysteries. Hold faith closely, and trust in your higher source. In terms of love, this is your month to explore deepening your commitment. Trust in promises.
September 23-October 22
Personal happiness is the special of the day; however, when it comes interpersonal interaction, you conflict-averse Libras need to try on your body armor. The planet Saturn (stop-you-in-your-tracks kind of planet) has left your sign this month, so those personal as well as professional aspirations that have been on the back burner now move forward. Change is demanding an immediate response or you may get left behind. You’ve always been the anchorman, so those who have doubts need to take a walk and let you take charge. This is like the “event horizon” of a black hole. The gravity holds you in space and time, but through some kind of cosmic quirk you break lose. We consider this a rebirth. Once in a while in life, we get a chance to live our dream. Now is your time. The next step is to start packing your suitcases, but be aware, as you may encounter problems with others. No one wants to help you pack or say goodbye, and you may end up having to explain yourself several times. They are trying to manifest guilt; what will you do without them and they you? Well, you may lull over those thoughts for about a nano-second. In time there will be old friends and new. So say long goodbyes to those who care most and make sure you have a spare bedroom wherever you go.
October 23-November 21
This month is like participating in a track meet. The starting pistol goes off and you’re out of the gates and the race is on to see what can’t you accomplish this month. Plan your social venues the first 2 weeks of the month because the last 2 weeks need to be self-absorbing. Many issues, especially yours, are demanding a personal audience. In business, embark on a new marketing plan. Just as you know to refine your mission, you also know you may feel like a babysitter over other employees, and that’s just not going to work anymore. Hard decisions have to be made, and only you can make them. You’re in charge and employees are only going to respect you more for getting rid of non-productive team members. This tremendous empowerment lets others know you’re the General; you have the strategy and synthesis of understanding so that all of you can share in the creative connection.
November 22-December 21
If you could just try and stay away from dealing with the past, this month could be much more rewarding. Unexpected invitations whether formal or not need your personal attention. As the city becomes alive again so do you. Being active creates unrest with structures that caused you be satisfied with the status-quo. Many new and genuine opportunities open up for you in work creating new friends and a possible future relationship. If you’re single get out there and strut your stuff. This could be the right place and the right time that a person of total content wants to have a conversation with you. Dialogue is a genuine seduction, run with it. Even interruptions prove to be enriching, so allow strangers to join in on the conversation. Weddings or even other events may take you out of town so make sure you attend. You’re going to put a lot of mileage on the car so make sure it’s updated with fluids and brakes so that it’s at your immediate disposable.
December 22-January 19
Here’s some common sense: work has come to an agonizing slow crawl so there’s no reason to go to work and pace the floor. The time has come for a grand vacation. Book a 5-star hotel in Vancouver and enjoy the play toys of nature. Then it’s back to the resort for a little ethnic cuisine. Lavish you and yours with the opulence of this moment. You work very hard, and that means you and your loved one deserves to have his or her cake…and eat it, too. Take at least two weeks so you can soak it all in. Nothing will need your attention when you get back, so you get a chance to warm back up to it all. We have good news for those of you who have wanted to start a family. The fertility gods will be in town on the 10th and 11th. It’s time to absorb another exponent of life which leads to wholeness.
January 20-February 18
You more than any other sign fight for human rights. Whether standing up for a cause or for your sister, personal expression is never put to the side. You definitely need to head to the waterfront to watch the fireworks. Maybe you should just book a room and stay downtown for the night. People watching should be at its best. This is a great month to begin an outline of what you would like to accomplish in the next six months. Liberation is knocking on the door wanting you to come out and play. You’re not an impulsive person, and you know that sweeping changes need cultivation. Why don’t you start by going to Anthropologie and build a new wardrobe for a beautiful beginning to the more radical changes you will experience in the Fall. Major promotion brings thoughts of buying a new home, furniture, making travel plans, and more. Consider sharing your desires and feelings with one who understands your unique nature.
February 19-March 19
This month there are going to be some minor conflicts that may induce stress, anxiety, and, if we may be so bold, possibly even a trip to the Wine Chap. (Just a bottle not a whole case, please!) One thing you do need to understand about the day-to-day is that not all of it is your fault. To ease the stress, practice yoga and indulge in a massage. Try and get out of town and unplug your cell phone. This gives you time to confront your core, the part of you that has been waiting for its promise of renewal. No time should be lost in your efforts to succeed personally and professionally. It’s time to establish your place in the world. It will be others who bring moments of fear that may cause you to want to pause. Despite their warnings, cast all doubt aside. Have faith in your thirst for higher aspirations. Tensions within a relationship become more consuming, but your kindness and understanding cause him or her to grow. You will both experience mutual growth and shared purpose.
