June 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

June

Overview.

The Sun is in your solar first house until the 21st. This is an excellent time to promote yourself, to make your intentions and purposes known, and to make an impact on your world by the sheer power of your presence! If you want to be seen and to make a definite impression, this is the time. You project confidence and self-assuredness, making others take note.

The Sun highlights your second house from the 21st, and your focus is on material affairs and comfort issues. Security is a driving force for you right now, and you might find that you are especially interested in accumulating possessions. What you have and what you don't have come into focus--what makes you feel comfortable, your sense of security, and what you value. This is the time of year when personal finances and possessions receive maximum attention. Pour your energy into your work and your finances, and you might just be able to take your ideas to the bank. Extravagance with your pocketbook is something you may want to look out for, however. If you find yourself itching to make unnecessary purchases, know that at the root of this urge is the desire to pamper and comfort yourself. Nothing wrong with it, but there are inexpensive (and even free) ways to make yourself feel good. This is not the most eventful time of year for you. You are more inclined to dig your heels in and hang on to what makes you feel most secure than to take big risks.

Your personal plans and initiatives are at the forefront of your mind this month, but you are also in the position to make great strides in close relationships. Negotiations come into focus, and an agreement may be finalized, whether formal or informal. This is an excellent month for clearing the air, as long as you are unambiguous and logical. If you are not perfectly clear in your communications, chances are high you will be misinterpreted. Some rethinking of financial plans and strategies will be necessary. You can enjoy strong health and vitality.

In the first half of the month, there is a strong emphasis on your first and seventh house axis, and issues surrounding personal initiative, assertiveness, personal appearance, and partnerships are in the foreground. Much activity surrounding these "departments" of your life is stimulated.

Mercury begins a retrograde cycle on June 15th and runs until July 9th. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your personal presentation or image to others and communications with family because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Because Mercury is your sign's ruler, all of the Mercury Retrograde issues outlined above apply. Put off making important decisions with regards to family and domestic matters (Virgo-ruled for you) just now, and take care when it comes to communicating with family members. Occurring in your solar second house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to new financial initiatives. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues regarding personal finances. Take this time to re-budget instead of making premature purchases. Hold off on decision-making regarding money. Instead, take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, but put off finalizing anything important for the time being. In fact, some money-making ideas or ventures may be put on hold due to circumstances beyond your control.

This month, Saturn and Neptune are in opposition for the final time. This energy first occurred in August 2006 (see our horoscope archives in August for an explanation of the conflict). Some sort of resolve of the conflict is in sight now, although getting to that point could involve some form of disillusionment.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms stimulating connections to the Sun by aspect and by declination this month, on the 10-12 and 28, representing opportunity periods for you. Recognition or acknowledgement is forthcoming during these periods. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 1-2, 4, and 29, when you may feel neglected, slighted, or unappreciated. Some form of disillusionment or the need to face reality on a matter, most likely a partnership issue, is likely on the 1-2 and 4.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 10-12 and 30-July 1. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 1-2 and 25-29.

As far as romantic and creative matters are concerned, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 20 and 30-1 (with some challenges). These are 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 3-4, 5, 8-9, 18-19, 21-22, 25-26, and 29-30. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. With regard to your serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 3-4, 7-8, and 19-20. Use these days for strengthening your connection or attracting a serious partnership. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 5-6 and 21-22.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 4-5, 11-13, and 20-22. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 3, 18-19, and 28-29, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 12-14 and 19-20. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur on the 4-5 and 29-30, when others may not see you in the best light!

Venus continues to transit your solar second house until the 5th. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of the financial with social or public affairs. Diplomacy, correctness in manner, finesse, and charm will be a big plus in aiding financial gains, especially in areas requiring public contact. Although you like the good things of life and may spend quite a bit on clothes, furniture, and entertainment, your innate sense of security will not permit you to go overboard to the point of extravagance. You will have the ability to build up financial reserves and resources, for this placement can bring a good deal of success in all monetary pursuits. Women and partnerships provide the backdrop for monetary gains or losses.

Venus journeys through your solar third house from the 5th. During this cycle you are especially charming in your communications with others. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual. Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips.

Mercury transits your solar second house all month. This is a strong period for analyzing your cash flow, income, and earning power. You are more practical and rational in your approach to finances now. With your conscious mind focused on money and possessions, as well as personal values, this can be a strong period for gathering new money-making ideas. Alternatively, it could be a time when you tend to fret over your finances. Conversations tend to be practical rather than frivolous now. Financial gain may come through communications. However, these matters could be tricky while Mercury is retrograde from the 15th forward.

Mars continues to transit your solar eleventh house until the 24th, and you are likely to exert your energy and initiative into friendships, social life, and group activities. Friendship is of above-average importance during this cycle, but this is a sphere of life where you may experience some rocky periods since the aggressive, argumentative side of Mars, if left untamed, could cause upsets between yourself and your friends. This will be especially so when others challenge your reasons or motives for certain actions. Leadership qualities are present now. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others' toes. As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

Mars energizes your solar twelfth house from the 24th. This is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you--and this is not necessarily a bad thing! It could also be a time when much of your energy is channeled into private matters, or when you prefer that others not observe what you are doing. This is natural--you may just as well do your best work alone for now. Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself. Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts.

Highlights:

May 31-June 1 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 3-6 Operative energies include the Sun trine Chiron and opposite Jupiter; Mars trine Jupiter and sextile Chiron; and Venus sesquiquadrate Jupiter. These influences produce a natural, enterprising spirit. Enthusiasm and confidence are with us now, and it's easy to tap into our more unique qualities and talents in order to go after what we want. However, we also have the tendency to over-reach. For you, this is a strong period for relations with a partner, although there could be some pie-in-the sky thinking.

June 7-8 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 9 With the Sun and Venus in hard aspect to Uranus, watch for disruptions in personal relationships and general plans. Expect the unexpected! For you, these disruptions and surprises are likely to occur in the realms of communications, relations with acquaintances, romance, speculation, and children.

June 10-12 Operative energies include the Sun sextile Mars and Saturn, and Mars trine Saturn. We are able to creatively solve problems and to instinctively take action when necessary now. It's easy to stick to a specific task and make headway. Work takes on definite shape, and we can see results from our efforts. This gives us a sense of responsibility and a feeling of directedness and purposefulness. This is a good time to temper our energy and to exercise better judgment, as well as to get and feel organized. Traditional methods work, and thoroughness brings rewards. Practical considerations are favored over impulsive decisions. For you, organizing your papers, working environment, and communication systems do wonders for a feeling of stability. Financial plans, particularly joint or support finances, may be stabilized or clinched now. Friendships could be especially supportive, and business income solidified.

June 13 Operative energies include the Sun trine Neptune and Mars sextile Neptune. Interesting synchronicities can occur now. We may be at the right place at the right time, probably because our hunches are more likely to be correct and we are "tuned in". Instinctual judgment is enhanced under these influences. This period favors dancing, swimming, photography, the arts, and entertainment--mediums in which we act upon our more spiritual or artistic inclinations. It's a time when we are guided by intuition more than reason. Taking action towards the attainment of a dream can also figure now. For you, interesting twists to your life story could occur now, particularly surrounding friendships, long-term dreams, or business income. An unusual communication could be part of the picture.

June 13-14 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 14 New Moon in Gemini in your solar first house affects you until the next New Moon in July. 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.

June 14-16 Mercury is stationary retrograde now, and will remain retrograde until July 9th--a cycle when rethinking matters 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 they might need revision later.

June 15-16 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 22-23 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 27-28 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 29-30 Operative energies include Mars-Uranus, Sun-Saturn, Sun-Neptune, and Venus-Neptune hard aspects. The contrast between what is real and what is only a dream is explicit. It's best to avoid beginning a new project for the time being, as there is a lack of clarity now. For you, long-standing challenges regarding communications, education, or belief systems can reach a head now before final resolve. Disappointments and frustrations are likely. As well, romantic illusions, feeling unappreciated on the job, and the erratic behavior of friends could be part of the picture now.

June 30 Full Moon in Capricorn in your solar eighth house. 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. You may be in a position wherein you are forced to make a financial settlement or large outlay of cash; or, you may find that you are leaned upon for support, financial or otherwise.

Gemini (Born May 22 to 31) and Gemini Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Gemini:

Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

May

Overview.

Until the 21st, the Sun continues to "hibernate" in your solar twelfth house. This is a time when you recharge your batteries, rest up, reflect, and perhaps close matters that have run their natural course. During this cycle, a sense of personal fulfillment is reinforced by resolving subconscious influences or matters from the past. You will instinctively withdraw from the hustle and bustle of daily life in an attempt to get to know yourself, your goals, and your needs better. This is an imaginative, perhaps dreamy, time of the year. Some may indulge in self-pity at this time, but as long as they pull strength from it, it might simply be a healthy process. You need time alone now in order to sort things out and to avoid overload!

From the 21st, the Sun illuminates your first house, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. This marks the height of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence beyond its normal boundaries. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage. It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering�to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature pushes up and out, and it's time to seize opportunities. Problems in your life may be overcome by bravery, self-assertion, and directness. There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for team work and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.

May is a mostly quiet month for you--a time to gather your energies and to close important projects. Nevertheless, your mental energies are quickened from the 11-28 while Mercury is in your sign, favoring any task that involves getting your point across effectively! Your romantic life stabilizes and deepens. A disappointment leads to a breakthrough on the 5-7, and the uncovering of a secret occurs on the 22nd. A conflict between the demands of a partnership and the those of your career occurs this month, likely due to a decreased concern with your worldly affairs.

This month, Jupiter squares Uranus and trines Saturn. These long-term energies have been with us since January and March, respectively. For you, the lines of communication open up between you and a special someone. Sharing daily events and goings-on with one another gives you much pleasure. This can also suggest a real learning experience with someone with whom you can bounce ideas off and come to a better understanding of how you define yourself. Learning about the world around you through the eyes of a special person--or through other one-to-one relationships, such as clients--is a pleasing theme now and in the months to come. Nevertheless, you could also experience some conflict between the demands of a partnership and the demands of career. This is likely due to the fact that you are taking more pleasure and interest in your relationship, and your more worldly affairs are not quite as interesting to you as a result. Try not to instigate change just for the sake of change, and avoid rash behavior. On the other hand, if you look for opportunities, you have more confidence and faith now to do something totally different, and inspiration may be found now. But do avoid blowing off responsibilities while you pursue your new vision.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms stimulating connections to the Sun, Mars, Chiron, Venus, and Neptune on the 1-2, 8-9, 19-21 (with tension), and 22-23, representing opportunity periods for you. On the 1-2, you may be recognized as an authority or for the things you do best. Energy and enterprise are with you on the 8-9. On the 19-21, others tend to trust you implicitly and enjoy your more unique qualities, but you should avoid overextending yourself. Pay attention to synchronicities on the 22-23, when gentleness gets you everywhere. Others find you mysterious and fascinating. This is also a strong period for career and reputation matters. Self-expression flows. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 3-5, 7, 10, 27, and 29, when you may feel neglected, slighted, or unappreciated. Avoid power plays and the people who play them on the 3-5 and 27th. You are more likely to feel blocked, thwarted, and misunderstood now. Disillusionments are likely on the 7th.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 4-6 (with some challenges) and 21. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 8-9, and 19-20.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 1, 20-21, and 24-25. These days 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 6-11, 14, 22-23, and 28-29. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. With regard to your serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 4-7 and 30-31. Use these periods for strengthening your connection or attracting a serious partnership. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 1, 8-10, 19-20, and 23. Watch for a face-off on the 19-20.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 8-9. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 3-4, 6-7, 10, 12-14, 19-20, and 27 (especially), when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 1, 5-6, 22-23, and 30-31. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur on the 7, 12-14, 24-25, and 28, when others may not see you in the best light!

Venus continues to transit your solar first house until the 8th. During this trend, a strong desire for companionship and sociability dominates. You want to maintain peace and harmony at all costs. You try to be just and fair when making decisions, as you do your best to see both sides of an issue. Women are likely to enter your life, helping or hindering personal or business affairs. You prefer the company of others, rather than going it alone. Others notice and perhaps admire you for your pleasant and cheerful personality. This is good for your ego, endowing greater self-esteem and an excellent opinion of yourself. This renewed popularity increases success, for you have the tact and diplomacy to deal with people well. Attention is placed on personal appearance, with an interest in jewelry, hairstyling, and clothing. You are more bold in your love nature, yet not aggressive either. You make friends easily during this cycle, and you are especially fond of love and admiration. Artistic self-expression is important, possibly through music, clothing or writing.

Venus warms your solar second house from the 8th. As the natural ruler of this sector of the chart, Venus feels right "at home" here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it--you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.

Mercury continues to transit your private solar twelfth house until the 11th. During this trend, your mind is focused on private matters and past issues. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers. This is a good time for research, quiet contemplation, and meditation; but do avoid being dragged down by issues that have outgrown their worth and purpose. Examining the past in order to improve the future is certainly worthwhile, as long as you don't waste your energy on guilt.

Mercury transits your solar first house from the 11-28. This is a cycle in which you tend to talk more readily, particularly about your own personal likes and dislikes or your personal past. Your demeanor is light-hearted and curious, and others might turn to you for advice, as you appear to be more rational than usual. This is the time of year when you can most easily use the power of words to attract what you want for yourself.

Mars continues to activate your solar tenth house until the 15th, bringing dynamic energy to all career, professional, and public matters. You could easily find that your talents or services are especially in demand now. Courage, ambition, energy, enterprise, force, emotional involvement, business acumen, and a strong perhaps even compulsive drive for success can lead to professional recognition. You always like to see practical results for your efforts and take pride in doing a job correctly, and this is a good cycle in which to show your leadership skills. Don't, however, let your enterprising nature get interpreted as aggressiveness or insensitivity.

Mars energizes your solar eleventh house from the 15th. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others' toes. As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

 

Highlights:

May 2 Full Moon in Scorpio in your solar sixth house. Avoid blaming others for your own state of discontent. You can use this surge of emotional energy to make positive changes to your routines. Do something to improve your work conditions if they are annoying you--even if it's a small act of kindness with a co-worker or bringing in something to brighten up your desk or office. Get going on your exercise or nutrition program that you've been toying with in your mind. This may also be a time when a work project comes to fruition or completion.

May 3-5 Operative energies include the Sun conjunct Mercury and in hard aspect with Pluto; and Mercury square Saturn. Our wants are aligned with our thoughts, and problem-solving comes naturally. What we say or write now has impact, for better or for worse! However, we are not very good at truly listening to what others have to say, and when we do, we tend to read between the lines with a negative slant. Our minds are investigative. Some of us could feel troubled or stressed with these influences. For you, intense conversations about the past could figure now. News that irritates or troubles you may arrive now.

May 4-5 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 7-9 Operative energies include Venus opposition Pluto; Sun square Saturn and sextile Uranus; Mercury square Neptune and sextile Mars. Intense social interactions are likely during this period. Frustrations involving blocked will and evasiveness can drive us to come up with creative solutions to problems now. For you, deceptive or confusing situations and people could figure strongly now. Misunderstandings are likely, but eventually lead to progress and clarity. Power struggles with a romantic partner could also ensue.

May 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.

May 12-14 Operative energies include Mars square Pluto, Sun square Neptune, and Venus sesquiquadrate Neptune. Our desires are intense and difficult to satisfy right now. Some disillusionments are likely, as we tend to see what we want to see rather than what is. For you, this is a challenging period for relationships with acquaintances or neighbors as well as a romantic partner or interest. A lover may be evasive or hard to understand. Power plays with a friend are possible now. Tension regarding business income could also figure now.

May 16 New Moon in late Taurus in your solar twelfth house affects you until the next New Moon in June. 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—a period that is more active and busy than this one. 

May 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.

May 19-20 Operative energies include Mars sesquiquadrate Saturn, Sun inconjunct Pluto, and Mercury opposite Jupiter and square Uranus. There is a feeling of being blocked when we are attempting to go after what we want. Adjustments are necessary now in order for our lives to move forward. The need to make changes in our life that will further our psychological development arise now. Decision-making, however, may be based on unrealistic or overly optimistic premises. For you, this could be a period of blind optimism. Challenges with business income or regarding group associations could figure. Work matters could leave you feeling unappreciated.

May 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.

May 25 Venus trines Uranus. We lose our fear of taking risks at this time, 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 have an offbeat, pleasant attitude and people are more willing to socialize. For you, this is a pleasant influence for romantic relationships, creativity, and relationships with children. A fun surprise could lift your spirits. It's also good for feeling secure and/or compensated on the job.

May 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.

May 31 Full Moon in Sagittarius in your solar seventh house. The New Moon was all about you. Now it's time to strike a balance with an "other". The seventh house represents an important one-to-one relationship--a marriage partner, significant other, business partner, or an adversary. It's time to strike a balance between your own needs and those of another. It's time to compromise and negotiate. Partnership "tests" are possible now, but so is a chance to truly connect to a special someone in your life.

May 31-June 1 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.

Gemini (Born May 22 to 31) and Gemini Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Gemini:

April 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

April

Overview. Until the 20th, the Sun puts a spotlight on your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true. It's a sociable sector, and that's exactly how you are feeling--happy, lighthearted, and social. You're more detached than usual. Conferences or other gatherings that are related to future developments and/or shared ideals and interests succeed for you at this time. You may lead, facilitate, or organize an important group function. Personal relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children increase. From the 20th, some down time is in order. Before that, enjoy your lively calendar!

The Sun highlights your solar twelfth house from the 20th, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break. It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.

Your social agenda is lively and rewarding in April. A new friendship or group association arrives in the second half of the month. Grab opportunities that come to pass through friends and associates on the 19-22nd. Use extra caution when operating machinery or while driving, as you are more inclined to impulsiveness. Personal magnetism is at a yearly peak from the 12th. Career activity is especially notable this month. Professional exposure or other forms of publicity arrive in the last week of April. Others take note of your accomplishments, and some surprises are in store.

Jupiter retrogrades this month, kicking off a retrograde period that lasts until the first week of August, and involves some re-thinking of matters surrounding negotiations and close partnerships. By August, you will be ready to move forward in these areas with gusto. Saturn's direct motion this month suggests that any stagnation you've been experiencing with communications, siblings, and neighbors will begin to lift and these matters start to move forward. It's also a helpful influence for financial and intimate matters.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms stimulating connections to Uranus, Venus, Chiron, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto on the 1, 5-8, 19, 21-22, and 26, representing opportunity periods for you. Surprises are likely on the 1st; romantic and financial energy arrives on the 5-8; and on the 19th, others naturally appreciate the unique qualities that make you "you". The 21-22 is a strong period for you--real accomplishments can be realized now. The 26th brings increased personal influence and new information that breaks down barriers. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 2-4, 9-10, 12, 14, and 27-28, when you may feel neglected, slighted, or unappreciated.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 1-5, and 26-29 (with mixed results). Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 21-23.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 5-8, 24-25, 27-28, and 30. These days 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 1-4, 10-11, 20-23, and 29. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. With regard to your serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 9-10 and 21. Use these periods for strengthening your connection or attracting a serious partnership. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 2-4, 24-25, 27-28, and 30.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 4-5, 14-19, and 26. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 9-11, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 9-12 and 21-22. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur on the 2-4, 14, 24-25, when others may not see you in the best light!

Until the 12th, Venus moves through your privacy sector. Matters of the heart touch you deeply. You may willingly play a supportive role to a partner, offering him or her more compassion and selfless love. If a romance were to begin during this period, it would likely be a private or even secret one. What you don't know might just be helping you right now, because what's happening behind your back is moving in your favor and all will come out happily when your dreams become a reality soon enough. Venus comes out of "hiding" on the 12th, when your emotions will be on your sleeve. For now, laying low is best in the love department.

Venus warms your solar first house from the 12th. During this trend, a strong desire for companionship and sociability dominates. You want to maintain peace and harmony at all costs. You try to be just and fair when making decisions, as you do your best to see both sides of an issue. Women are likely to enter your life, helping or hindering personal or business affairs. You prefer the company of others, rather than going it alone. Others notice and perhaps admire you for your pleasant and cheerful personality. This is good for your ego, endowing greater self-esteem and an excellent opinion of yourself. This renewed popularity increases success, for you have the tact and diplomacy to deal with people well. Attention is placed on personal appearance, with an interest in jewelry, hairstyling, and clothing. You are more bold in your love nature, yet not aggressive either. You make friends easily during this cycle, and you are especially fond of love and admiration. Artistic self-expression is important, possibly through music, clothing or writing.

Mercury continues its journey through your career and reputation sector until the 10th, suggesting that your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to professional worldly ambitions where knowledge and education are pursued in order to enhance career prospects or social standing. Your mental qualities are well suited to managerial posts and any work requiring communication skill and executive ability during this cycle.

Mercury transits your friendship sector from the 10-22. Your mind is bright, alert, and active during this cycle, and you have the ability to come up with unusual and inventive ideas. Sharing your thoughts with others is a prime interest. Others tend to particularly enjoy your conversations during this transit--you are willing to listen as well as add your own thoughts. As well, your ability to grasp unusual subject matter and to intuitively understand what others are trying to say win you some brownie points! You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals.

Mercury transits your privacy sector from the 27th. During this period, your mind is focused on private matters and past issues. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers. This is a good time for research, quiet contemplation, and meditation; but do avoid being dragged down by issues that have outgrown their worth and purpose. Examining the past in order to improve the future is certainly worthwhile, as long as you don't waste your energy on guilt.

Mars energizes and activates your solar tenth house from the 6th. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it's professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.
 

Highlights:

April 1-2 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 2 Full Moon in Libra in your solar fifth house. Relationships come into focus--dependency issues surface now. You want to have fun, and the demands of your larger goals in life may have been eclipsing your pleasure-seeking activities. It can be hard to find time for everything you want to do, but without creative self-expression (be it romantic or playful), you simply won't feel complete. It's time to do something self-expressive, fun, and creative. You may be required to complete a creative project at this time. You could feel an overwhelming need to pour your heart out to a lover, or a romantic affair reaches some sort of epiphany. There could be a whirlwind of activity surrounding your child or children.

April 7-8 Operative energies include Mercury sextile Venus and the Sun trine Saturn. This is a good time for us to take care of practical and "earthly" matters. Meeting responsibilities is satisfying now. For you, solid achievement can be realized with mental work. Pleasant and stable intimate relationships also figure now. This is also a strong period for you on a magnetic level--you can attract what (or who) you want more readily now.

April 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.

April 9-12 Operative energies include Sun trine Jupiter and sextile Neptune; and Mercury square Pluto. Idealistic and humanitarian goals or impulses surface now, although a suspicious attitude or stance could also be part of the picture. For you, relationship matters are strong and are likely to be infused with spirit, hope, and optimism. However, you may not be received well with some with your ruler square Pluto. Avoid coming on too strong, and avoid sarcasm now that could be misinterpreted too easily.

April 13-14 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 17 New Moon late Aries in your solar eleventh house affects you until the next New Moon in May. The eleventh house is a sector 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.

April 18-19 Operative energies include Sun trine Pluto and Mercury sextile Chiron. Intensity of focus, healing conversations, and a renewed sense of purpose are with us now. For you, this period is especially strong for uncovering information, revealing conversations, and strengthened ties with others. It's also powerful for close personal relationships. You are believed and respected right now, just for being you!

April 19-20 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 21-22 Operative energies include Mercury trine Jupiter and Saturn and sextile Neptune. Strong productivity on mental levels characterizes this combination. It's a good period for coming up with successful business plans and strategies. This is yet another combination in April that is strong for strengthening relationships through healthy and logical communication. Applying logic and reason to relationship issues works well now. You are presenting yourself with authority and respect, and others take note.

April 22-23 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.

April 26-30 A creative combination occurs now, involving a T-square between Venus, Jupiter, Mars and Uranus. Saturn and Neptune form harmonious angles to the Venus-Jupiter opposition. This exciting configuration stimulates your close partnership and career sectors. Expect the unexpected on the job, in your career, or regarding your reputation--events that occur now could cause or illuminate tensions in a close partnership. Avoid rebellious attitudes towards authority or duty. Be strategic rather than impulsive now.

April 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.

Gemini (Born May 22 to 31) and Gemini Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Gemini:

March 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

March

Overview. Until the 21st, the Sun continues to put a spotlight on your tenth house--the most visible sector of the chart. This is the most ambitious period of the year for you. You are more visible and perhaps in demand. Your personal fulfillment now is reinforced most by accepting responsibility for others and for the job you do. At this time of year, your more serious, hard-working, and perhaps sober side comes out for others to see. For some, pessimism gets the upper hand. For most, it's a satisfyingly goal-oriented and disciplined cycle.

From the 21st, the Sun spotlights your eleventh house of friendships, groups, dreams, and aspirations. It's a sociable sector of your chart, and that's exactly how you are feeling--happy, lighthearted, and social. Group affiliations capture your attention. Connections can be made now and networking pays off. Being part of a community or circle of friends and building your social network is important to you at this time. This is a rather happy, goal-oriented cycle. A lively agenda is promised, you're attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is high. A stronger sense of community is with you during this cycle. Relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. This is a time to follow your dreams and ideals, and to plant a seed in the form of a wish for the future.

Emotions run high for a family member on the 3rd, when you can safely expect the unexpected on the home front. Misunderstandings and communication challenges that have been part of your life recently clear up by the 9th, when projects begin to move forward. New career developments grab your attention this month, particularly on the 5th and 25th, when unexpected events trigger new directions. This month is excellent for a serious conversation with a close partner. Feeling secure and supported is the end result.

From the 7th, Mercury turns direct and matters that have been stagnant for you begin to move forward. Mercury leaves its storm on the 16th, when "all things Mercury" tend to resume near-normal pace, and leaves its shadow on March 27th. From the 16-27th, we have a chance to revisit matters that may have stumped or annoyed us while Mercury was retrograde, or to put into action ideas that came to us during this cycle. For you, communications with with co-workers, professors, lawyers, and family members resume with less confusion and more clarity.

Two eclipses occur this month. One is a Lunar Eclipse on the 3rd at 13 degrees Virgo. Its opposition to Uranus brings a surprising turn of events. The other is a Solar Eclipse on the 19th at 28 degrees of Pisces. The effects of eclipses stay with us for as long as six months, and they reveal main areas of focus for this half-year period. A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. Therefore, major decision-making is best avoided from March 1-3 and then March 12-19th.

The Lunar Eclipse on the 3rd stimulates your solar fourth house. Surprises surrounding your home, family, and domestic life are in store. Something that has been in hiding or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Your sector of house and home, property, family, parents, and foundations is involved. This could manifest, for example, as the culmination of a project on the home, an event involving a family member or parent that grabs your complete attention, a flurry of activity in your home that demands attention, and other such possibilities.

The Solar Eclipse on the 19th marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar tenth house, suggesting that a new approach to your career or a new career direction altogether is in store for you. New business plans and goals may be formed in the coming month, and a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your career goals is a strong potential. This is a phase in which you will be especially busy with career and/or public responsibilities.

Jupiter trines Saturn this month, linking your third and seventh houses in a pleasing way. This is a period of constructive accomplishment. We are practical, realistic, and our judgment is especially sound--and we derive much satisfaction from practical accomplishment. The key to harnessing this wonderful energy is to identify and find pleasure in the simple things that make you happy. For you, the lines of communication open up between you and a special someone. Sharing daily events and goings-on with one another gives you much pleasure. This can also suggest a real learning experience with someone with whom you can bounce ideas off and come to a better understanding of how you define yourself. Learning about the world around you through the eyes of a special person--or through other one-to-one relationships, such as clients--is a pleasing theme now and in the months to come.

Your ruler, Mercury, is moving slowly for part of the month, forming less aspects than usual. It leaves its retrograde period on the 7th and then resumes regular speed from the 16th. Mercury forms pleasing connections to Pluto, Chiron, and Venus this month on the 1st, 4-6, and 15-18, representing opportunity periods for you. Uncovering new information or insight is likely on the 1st. Gaining respect is especially easy on the 4-6, when humble confidence gets you everywhere. The 15-18 brings love, pleasure, and good feelings, as your personal charm is appreciated by all (or at least the people that matter!). Connections made on the job could be part of the picture. Only one red flag period--a time when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occurs this month on the 2nd, and it�s not a terrible one. However, you could feel underappreciated at this time.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 8-9 and 13-18. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided in the first week of the month, as well as the 10th and 21-24.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 2-3, 7-10 (especially strong), 16, and 30-31. These days 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 17-18, 21, and 28-29. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. For more serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 7-8, 14-18, and 22-24. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 1-2, 9th, and 21st.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 1st and 16-17. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 15th, 19-20, and 28-29, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 9-10 and 24-26. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur in the first week of the month and the 27th, when others may not see you in the best of lighting!

Venus transits your eleventh house until the 17th, and a friendly, equality-minded, although somewhat detached energy surrounds your love life. Earnings from a business get a pleasant boost as well. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are likely to enjoy a strong feeling of happiness and solidarity in friendship, or with groups of like-minded individuals. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to occur during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.

Venus is in your private twelfth house from the 17th--keeping secrets and sacrifices are the major themes in your love and financial life. With Venus spending some time in "hibernation" in your privacy sector, this doesn't necessarily mean that your love life is stagnant, but that your affection is expressed behind closed doors. Attraction to secrets and whispers characterize this period, although for some, it can also be a time of endings, relationship concerns, and wistfulness. Personal and social contacts may be secretive, and there can be secret love affairs, or at least very private love feelings and longings. Shyness can lead to some loneliness or romantic frustration.

Mercury transits your ninth house until the 18th. Cross-cultural exchanges, a visit or significant communication from someone far away, and/or a long journey broaden your thinking. Your thoughts are lifted above the usual daily concerns and immediate business into thoughts and visions about future, larger goals, and the purpose and meaning of your activities. You are putting everything into a larger context. Discussions and/or reading on issues of faith and of the spirit are likely to be a part of this. Do be more cautious with your communications while Mercury is retrograde until the 7th, however. Be as clear as you can to avoid misunderstandings.

Mercury transits your tenth house from the 18th. You are likely thinking a lot about your career and business matters, or your career requires more communication than usual during this cycle. You speak with authority during this period, 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. This is an excellent period for developing career and professional plans or strategies. You may be turned to for advice or for your opinion on important matters. Although approachable and ready to communicate, you are less inclined towards chatting about frivolous matters now. 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. Negative use of this influence would be to worry unnecessarily about your reputation and responsibilities.

Mars activates and energizes your ninth house all month. During this period, you are especially enthusiastic and more bold than usual. Some restlessness and hunger for adventure is experienced now. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities, and you may find that you have a lot of energy for higher studies, travel, or simply new subjects. Negative potentials include being excessively opinionated or getting easily fired up over differences in points of view, or legal fights.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 1-10, when energy is with you and you can further your personal interests with few interruptions; and the 21-31, when matters seem to flow effortlessly overall.

Highlights:

March 1-3 Operative energies include Mercury sextile Pluto, Venus sextile Chiron, Mars semi-square Jupiter. New information begins to come to light, and we have the power to heal our social relationships. Because this period occurs just before a lunar eclipse, hold off on finalizing any deals or plans if you can, however. But do pay attention to the information that surfaces now. For you, this is a strong period for personal influence and romantic expression.

March 3 Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo in your solar fourth house. Flaws in an important system in your life come to light. The effects of this eclipse last for six months. The last two weeks have found you working hard towards your career goals and other public matters. The demands of your personal life are now paramount. Striking a balance between energy spent on work and energy spent on domestic matters is essential now. Balanced attention to your public and personal lives is what you need to focus on. It's time to prioritize. Otherwise, you run the risk of over-extending yourself. A home, family, or property matter could grab your complete attention at this time.

March 4-5 The Sun conjuncts Uranus in your solar tenth house. You may make an important discovery that changes your identity in the world and your important personal goals, or that affects your reputation. A strong spirit of restlessness, freedom, and idealism comes over you, and you cannot go on in the old way. You could have conflicts with authorities for ignoring rules and policies, and stubbornly insist on doing it your way. Whatever you've outgrown or accepted begrudgingly up until now will be challenged, and may quickly be given the boot. You can get somewhat ungrounded, overly idealistic, or unnecessarily provocative now. Extreme behaviors can land you in hot water. If you are open to change, you could have an exciting epiphany that ultimately takes you in new directions.

March 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.

March 8-9 Operative energies include Venus trine Jupiter and Saturn, Venus sextile Neptune, and Sun square Jupiter. This is an especially strong influence for creative output and is also excellent for cementing relationships. Because the grand trine affects your relationship sectors, it's strong for strengthening ties to partners, acquaintances, and friends. It's also an excellent period for showing your reliability to a romantic partner.

March 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.

March 15-16 Operative energies include Mars conjunct Chiron, Mercury sextile Venus, and Venus trine Pluto. Gaining new perspectives on romantic and sexual relationships, or on creative projects, occurs now. We seek out others, but won't settle for superficial connections. This can be a time of epiphanies and release of suppressed energies. For you, your powers of attraction increase. Epiphanies regarding your friendships or associations are also likely now. This is a very strong period for attracting or enhancing love. Important contracts and new beginnings, however, are best avoided until after the Solar Eclipse on the 18th.

March 17-18 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 18 New Moon Solar Eclipse in late Pisces in your solar tenth house affects you for the next six months. A time to focus on goals involving compassion, letting go of the past, and acceptance. Nagging problems from the past six months need to be dealt with and put behind you. 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.

March 22-25 A mixed bag of energies operant now brings challenges and possible enlightenment. Mars in your ninth house opposes Saturn, sextiles Jupiter, and conjuncts Neptune. You may have to deal with challenges in your relationships with acquaintances, in-laws, neighbors, or fellow students now. This can also play out via transportation problems or feeling overburdened with things to do. A positive, growth-oriented outcome is favored, however, if you draw upon your powers of negotiation and compromise, or through a close partner.

March 23-24 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.

March 25-26 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.

March 28-29 Venus forms tense angles to Chiron and Pluto. This is a less than ideal period for financial transactions and for social relationships. Tensions derived from lack of trust are likely now. Issues from the past might resurface now, likely revolving around trust and integrity. Romantic challenges or tension with children are also possible now.

Gemini (Born May 22 to 31) and Gemini Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Gemini:

February 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

February

Overview. Until the 19th, the Sun continues to spotlight your adventure sector. This transit that started in January 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 19th, the Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector, placing emphasis on public and professional matters. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your "place" or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. 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. Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.

Starting on a brand new course of action in your career path is favored in the first week of the month. A new discovery or a chance meeting with an influential person may pave the way to better working conditions. There could be some disappointing news regarding finances mid-month, which may leave you feeling tense. The second half of February could be riddled with minor challenges--projects are put on hold, and you might be feeling misunderstood. Problems encountered now will be ironed out in March, so try not to sweat the small stuff.

This month, Mercury retrogrades from the 13th forward (until March 7th). Mercury retrograde cycles are periods in which communications and transportation matters don't go as smoothly as usual. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your personal presentation or image to others and communications with family because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Occurring in your solar ninth and tenth houses this time, extra care should be used when communicating with superiors and co-workers, and regarding travel or education plans. Delays are very possible. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with co-workers, professors, lawyers, and family members, or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms some pleasing connections with Chiron, Pluto, and Uranus this month on the 1-3 and 8-11. These represent opportunity periods for you. The 1st is a period in which your natural confidence shines through--you are believed, understood, appreciated, and trusted. On the 8-11, something unexpected comes your way--a pleasant surprise, for example. You may be the one who acts out of character and surprises others in your life. The results will be fabulous. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 17-18. These issues may revolve around joint finances, intimacy, and differences in opinion--matters that certainly grab much of your attention in February. This is a period when impulsiveness can have its consequences.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 19-20. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 10, 13-15, and 25-28. This could be a somewhat challenging month for personal finances.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 1, 7th especially, and 12-13. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. The 7th is particularly auspicious, and likely involves unexpected events and pleasant surprises. Issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 9, 14, 18-20, and 24-25. This would be a less than ideal period to go on a first date, for example. For more serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 2-4 and 17th. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 8-9 and 28th.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 1st and 16-17. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 2nd and 19-20, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation run particularly well on the 7-8. Challenges with these matters are most likely on the 25th and 27-28.

Until the 21st, Venus transits your solar tenth house. During this cycle, 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. 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 come across as especially competent.

Venus transits your solar eleventh house from the 21st forward. Forming harmonious, warm social friendships, possibly related to group activities within a club, can figure now. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to begin during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.

Mercury moves through your solar tenth house all month. You are likely thinking a lot about your career and business matters, or your career requires more communication than usual during this cycle. You speak with authority during this period, 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. This is an excellent period for developing career and professional plans or strategies. You may be turned to for advice or for your opinion on important matters. Although approachable and ready to communicate, you are less inclined towards chatting about frivolous matters now. 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. Negative use of this influence would be to worry unnecessarily about your reputation and responsibilities. Do be more cautious with your communications while Mercury is retrograde from the 13th through to March 7th, however. Be as clear as you can to avoid misunderstandings.

Mars continues to energize your solar eighth house until the 26th, and your personal, intimate life speeds up. You experience every situation intensely and deeply during this cycle, even though your outward actions do not necessarily reveal this fact. You could find yourself attracted to mysterious or even dangerous situations. Sometimes this transit correlates with disputes over money. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support. Circumstances in life are likely to occur that require you to take the lead or to apply personal action in connection with joint finances.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 21-28, when your natural charm shines through and others generally receive you well as a result.

Highlights:

February 2 Full Moon in Leo in your solar third house. 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.

February 3-4 The Sun sextiles Jupiter and Mars sextiles Uranus. This is a strong period for learning, growth, advancement, and adventurous activities. It's favorable for marketing, publishing, and advertising, as well as any self-promotion activities. We may be especially sociable, tolerant, and generous. Confidence comes from a stronger sense of who we are and the principles we represent, as well as an ability to take healthy and reasonable risks.

February 6-7 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.

February 7-8 The Sun conjuncts Neptune and Venus conjuncts Uranus. This is a "make a wish" day. Spiritual goals come into focus. As well, bringing a spirit of friendship and freedom into close personal relationships is featured. Surprising career developments can occur for you now. A confusing communication could also arrive.

February 10 The Sun in your ninth house opposes Saturn in your third house. Restrictions and pressures may be felt now revolving around communications and errands. Feeling bogged down with daily activities that prevent you from enjoying broader pleasures may be the theme. Avoid new initiatives now if you can.

February 11-12 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.

February 17-18 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.

February 18 New Moon in late Aquarius in your solar ninth house affects you until the next New Moon. A time to focus on goals involving friendships, long-term happiness, dreams, and wishes. The ninth house rules our spirit to grow, explore, and expand beyond the "regular" experiences in our lives. The New Moon here may bring some restlessness and dissatisfaction with regular routines. Make an effort to initiate new projects or activities that expand your mind, feed your spirit for adventure, and stretch your imagination. You may feel renewed by a new perspective on your life, something philosophical or spiritual that you read or learn, or an adventure that takes you away from the mundane routines in your life.

February 24-25 Tense angles operant now include Mars-Uranus, Venus-Neptune, and Venus-Saturn. Relations are likely to be tense. Disillusionments with finances as well as personal relationships are possible. Reckless behavior has consequences. For you, romantic relationships and friendships may be a bit strained. Disappointments that crop up now are temporary.

February 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.

February 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 possible.

Gemini (Born May 22 to 31) and Gemini Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Gemini:

January 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

January

Overview. Until the 20th, the Sun continues to emphasize your intimacy sector. This sector rules all power-related issues and matters that brew under the surface of things. Sometimes this spotlight brings a tiny crisis or intense feelings. Intimacy matters come into strong focus as well. Taxes, shared resources, and other money matters may also feature strongly.

From the 20th, the Sun highlights your adventure sector. Your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now. A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don't have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning, will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with everyday affairs and important details.

New Year�s resolutions to kick a bad habit make a lot of sense this month, when your mind is focused on self-improvement and self-mastery skills. A financial revelation comes up around the 3rd, and a strengthening of your financial position is likely on the 7th. Don�t pass up an opportunity to increase your income around the 20th. Partnership matters continue to figure prominently. Around the 22nd, an unexpected partnership opportunity could arise, but avoid jumping to impulsive conclusions about any dealing with a partner now, business or personal.

This month, the first of three Jupiter-Uranus squares occurs, placing some tension between your seventh and tenth houses, from now through October. This could suggest some conflict between the demands of a partnership and the demands of career. This is likely due to the fact that you are taking more pleasure and interest in your relationship, and your more worldly affairs are not quite as interesting to you as a result. Try not to instigate change just for the sake of change, and avoid rash behavior. On the other hand, if you look for opportunities, you have more confidence and faith now to do something totally different, and inspiration may be found now. But do avoid blowing off responsibilities while you pursue your new vision.

This month, the Sun, Venus, and Mercury align with Chiron in your solar ninth house. You may enjoy key opportunity periods that expand your awareness or audience, and do wonders for your spirit, particularly if it is in need of some healing. The key now is confidence and not overstating yourself when you express your personal philosophy and opinions. Your realm of influence may expand now. Travel opportunities may present themselves, or a connection can be made to a person who is far away or of a different cultural background than you.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms strong connections on the 3-8, 16-22, 26, and 31, and these represent opportunity periods for you in January. The 20-22 is a particularly auspicious period for you when your personal magnetism and inner strength shines. You more easily influence others to accept your plans or ideas now. Social and romantic activities that give you a sense of emotional well-being figure now. It's an excellent time to revitalize important ties with others. You might have a healing effect on others or vice versa. On the 26th, synchronicities may appear in your life that further your own goals. You do need to watch for over-idealizing people or situations now, however. On the 31, you have opportunities to further your interests and gain some power or influence in a pleasing manner. It's also a strong period for work and health-related matters and partnerships. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 2, 11-13, and 28. Power issues or financial support matters could be part of the picture on the 2nd; some feelings of discouragement or let down could figure on the 11-13; and the same goes for the 28th, when you could be feeling left out or overburdened (these are temporary).

Better periods for personal finances occur on the 7-9. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 2, 11, 13-14, 22, and 26-28.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 4-6, 10-12, 18-19, 25-26, and 29-31. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. The 10-12 is particularly auspicious. Romance with or through a foreigner is possible. Issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 1, 13-14, and 22. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. For more serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 1, 4-6, and 11. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 12 and 15-17.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 7-9. 18-20, 25-26, and 31. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 22 and 27, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation run best on the 1st, and especially the 18-19 and 26th. Challenges in these matters are most likely on the 21-22.

Venus moves through your solar ninth house from the 4-28. A taste for the exotic takes hold during this cycle. Routine affairs simply don't seem to satisfy. You receive pleasure from anything that expands your horizons, both physically and mentally. Foreign people and places may particularly appeal now. You tend to be expansive and generous when it comes to love. A love interest who attracts you during this cycle may be somebody who you previously wouldn't consider attractive, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. You have a taste for the exotic and the spirit to match. Public relations work, promotion, and other such endeavors are favored now. It is more about how you express yourself than the specifics of what you are saying that helps sway others to your position. There could be especial rapport with foreigners and with women if you are traveling during this period. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. If a romance were to begin now, it is more likely to be with someone of a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. You have a taste for the exotic now that can show up in many areas of your life--who you are attracted to, what you buy, the kind of art or entertainment you enjoy, and so forth.

Mercury moves through your solar eighth house until the 15th. You are more intuitive now than usual, picking up all of the hidden cues from people around you and reading between the lines. This is an excellent cycle in which to do some financial planning and strategizing. Research is also highly favored. It's also easier for you to approach sensitive, intimate, and personal matters with rationality and logic. As such, this is a great time to open up conversations about topics that normally might cause waves, such as those revolving around the sharing of power, intimacy, and finances.

Mercury transits your solar ninth house from the 15th. Not content to focus on mundane, practical affairs just now, your mind is on bigger visions, thoughts, and ideals. You are open to expanding your knowledge base during this cycle, and communications from or with someone far away may be part of the picture. You are putting everything into perspective now, rather than compartmentalizing. Instead of simply shooting the breeze, you are more inclined to discuss broader philosophies now. Your inclination during this cycle is to think about the "big picture" rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life. Missing appointments and other forms of forgetfulness could be part of the picture now.

Until the 16th, Mars continues to activate your solar seventh house. Partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or adversaries may be challenging. Use this energy to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone's help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Relationships are vivacious and dynamic during this period. When a difference arises, you are quick to settle it, and have little patience for sweeping matters under the rug. Your close personal relationships are lively during this cycle--full of conflicts and resolutions or reconciliations.

Mars brings challenges and vital energy to your intimacy sector from the 16th. Sexuality and intimacy are stimulated under this transit. Negative expression of this energy is the tendency towards ego conflicts concerning jointly held property or money. Conflicts with partners over values or possessions are possible. Occasionally, this transit could bring a crisis or ending of some kind. Something you hear about now might disturb or touch you deeply. You are likely to be more strategic in your actions during this period, as you become aware of the subtleties of human interaction. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 4-12, which is strong for personal charm and attracting pleasant circumstances into your life; and the 20-30, when most matters tend to run smoothly and rather effortlessly.

Highlights:

December 31-January 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 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.

January 1-2 Jupiter sextiles Chiron, the Sun sextiles Uranus, and Mars sextiles Neptune. This is a creative period for all--one in which we can find new insights into old problems. Willingness to embrace change is the key to success now. For you, a boost to your close partnerships is probable now. This is also a good time for a pleasantly surprising communication.

January 2-3 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 3 Full Moon in Cancer in your solar second house. Some sort of fulfillment, culmination, or revelation regarding your desires or new initiatives at the last New Moon on December 20th occurs now. Intimacy, issues of power and control, or joint finances may have been a focus for the last two weeks. Now it's time to recognize what makes you comfortable. This Full Moon is about balancing the give and take of intimacy--the giving and receiving of pleasure. Sharing issues come into focus, as do issues of power--what's yours and what's mine. Your comfort zones matter, and now is the time to take care of your own needs without eclipsing the needs of others.

January 6-8 The Sun and Mercury align and Mars trines Saturn. These planetary influences suggest rational, logical, and productive energy. We are actively communicating, and our work takes on definite shape. This is a good time to temper our energy and to exercise better judgment. Traditional methods work, and thoroughness brings rewards. For you, an intimate conversation makes for a more secure and grounded feeling. This is an excellent period in which to discuss plans for the future, particularly with an intimate partner. You are able to present yourself with a strong air of responsibility and authority. You are noticed and acknowledged.

January 10-11 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.

January 10-12 Venus joins with Chiron and sextiles Jupiter. This is a healing and friendly energy--an excellent time to socialize, promote cooperation, spend time with romantic partners, and to initiate a new relationship or friendship. It's also very strong for financial matters. For you, this is a strong opportunity period for partnerships of all kinds. A meeting of minds can occur now, and can be especially healing and growth-oriented. A power day for love matters as well as negotiations.

January 13-14 Mars joins with Pluto and Venus semi-squares both planets; Mercury semi-squares Uranus. Keywords for this period include intense, passionate, rebellious, and obsessive! Tense interplays between lovers are quite likely now, and the inclination to rebel against routine or expectations is strong. Harness the energy of Mars-Pluto by pouring your energy into a pet project. Sexual relations now can be very intense. Competitive energy is powerful. With your ruler in tense angle to Uranus, an unexpected circumstance can figure now. Others may not be appreciating your behavior, or you could feel misunderstood. A partnership matter grabs your attention.

January 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.

January 18 New Moon in late Capricorn in your solar eighth house affects you until the next New Moon. A time to focus on long-term goals and projects and to formulate career and business plans. This is a time of empowerment. It is a good time to focus on issues of intimacy as well as developing self-mastery skills. You may experience increased awareness of others—what makes them tick—as well as your own internal motivations during this period. It is a time when intimacy and deep levels of sharing are heightened. It is also a favorable time to start a financial plan, savings plan, take out a loan or consolidate, and do work in accounting.

January 18-20 Venus joins with Neptune and Mercury conjoins Chiron. This can be a very romantic time, although the tendency can be towards seeing what we want to see rather than what is, so romantic mirages are possible now. Kind, healing words and communications are also featured now. A good time to discover new or alternative health procedures and regimes. Soft, pleasant energy dominates. For you, this influence can be a romantic one, and possibly with someone long-distance or from a different cultural background that you. An important conversation or communication with an intimate partner or family member can occur now. Words can heal--use them to mend fences or simply to reassure. You are appreciated for what makes you unique right now. Recognition comes naturally.

January 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.

January 25-26 Venus sextiles Pluto and Mercury aligns with Neptune. An excellent period for romantic and artistic expression. However, don't expect communications to be right-brain, logical, or clear! It's best to delay important decisions. A good period for romance and dreamy conversations. For you, a strong connection can be made from a distant place, and professional matters are positive. You might form a creative or romantic association through business.

January 27-28 Mercury and Mars form challenging angles to Saturn. This can be a tense period in which hitting brick walls is likely. Delay important discussions and avoid beginning new projects, which could be riddled with frustrations and complications down the road.

January 28-29 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.

January 30-31 The Sun joins Chiron and Mercury sextiles Pluto. An excellent period for coming up with innovative new techniques, socializing, and gaining perspective on our long-term goals.

Gemini (Born June 1 to 11) and Gemini Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Gemini:

June 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

June

Overview.

The Sun illuminates your first house all month, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the height of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence beyond its normal boundaries. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage. It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering�to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature pushes up and out, and it's time to seize opportunities. Problems in your life may be overcome by bravery, self-assertion, and directness. There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for team work and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.

Your personal plans and initiatives are at the forefront of your mind this month, but you are also in the position to make great strides in close relationships. Negotiations come into focus, and an agreement may be finalized, whether formal or informal. This is an excellent month for clearing the air, as long as you are unambiguous and logical. If you are not perfectly clear in your communications, chances are high you will be misinterpreted. Some rethinking of financial plans and strategies will be necessary. You can enjoy strong health and vitality.

In the first half of the month, there is a strong emphasis on your first and seventh house axis, and issues surrounding personal initiative, assertiveness, personal appearance, and partnerships are in the foreground. Much activity surrounding these "departments" of your life is stimulated.

Mercury begins a retrograde cycle on June 15th and runs until July 9th. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your personal presentation or image to others and communications with family because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Because Mercury is your sign's ruler, all of the Mercury Retrograde issues outlined above apply. Put off making important decisions with regards to family and domestic matters (Virgo-ruled for you) just now, and take care when it comes to communicating with family members. Occurring in your solar second house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to new financial initiatives. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues regarding personal finances. Take this time to re-budget instead of making premature purchases. Hold off on decision-making regarding money. Instead, take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, but put off finalizing anything important for the time being. In fact, some money-making ideas or ventures may be put on hold due to circumstances beyond your control.

This month, Saturn and Neptune are in opposition for the final time. This energy first occurred in August 2006 (see our horoscope archives in August for an explanation of the conflict). Some sort of resolve of the conflict is in sight now, although getting to that point could involve some form of disillusionment.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms stimulating connections to the Sun by aspect and by declination this month, on the 10-12 and 28, representing opportunity periods for you. Recognition or acknowledgement is forthcoming during these periods. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 1-2, 4, and 29, when you may feel neglected, slighted, or unappreciated. Some form of disillusionment or the need to face reality on a matter, most likely a partnership issue, is likely on the 1-2 and 4.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 10-12 and 30-July 1. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 1-2 and 25-29.

As far as romantic and creative matters are concerned, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 20 and 30-1 (with some challenges). These are 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 3-4, 5, 8-9, 18-19, 21-22, 25-26, and 29-30. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. With regard to your serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 3-4, 7-8, and 19-20. Use these days for strengthening your connection or attracting a serious partnership. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 5-6 and 21-22.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 4-5, 11-13, and 20-22. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 3, 18-19, and 28-29, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 12-14 and 19-20. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur on the 4-5 and 29-30, when others may not see you in the best light!

Venus continues to transit your solar second house until the 16th. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of the financial with social or public affairs. Diplomacy, correctness in manner, finesse, and charm will be a big plus in aiding financial gains, especially in areas requiring public contact. Although you like the good things of life and may spend quite a bit on clothes, furniture, and entertainment, your innate sense of security will not permit you to go overboard to the point of extravagance. You will have the ability to build up financial reserves and resources, for this placement can bring a good deal of success in all monetary pursuits. Women and partnerships provide the backdrop for monetary gains or losses.

Venus journeys through your solar third house from the 16th. During this cycle you are especially charming in your communications with others. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual. Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips.

Mercury transits near the cusp of your solar second house all month. This is a strong period for analyzing your cash flow, income, and earning power. You are more practical and rational in your approach to finances now. With your conscious mind focused on money and possessions, as well as personal values, this can be a strong period for gathering new money-making ideas. Alternatively, it could be a time when you tend to fret over your finances. Conversations tend to be practical rather than frivolous now. Financial gain may come through communications. However, these matters could be tricky while Mercury is retrograde from the 15th forward.

Mars energizes your solar eleventh house all month. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others' toes. As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

Highlights:

June 1-2 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 3-6 Operative energies include the Sun trine Chiron and opposite Jupiter; Mars trine Jupiter and sextile Chiron; and Venus sesquiquadrate Jupiter. These influences produce a natural, enterprising spirit. Enthusiasm and confidence are with us now, and it's easy to tap into our more unique qualities and talents in order to go after what we want. However, we also have the tendency to over-reach. For you, this is a strong period for relations with a partner, although there could be some pie-in-the sky thinking.

June 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.

June 9 With the Sun and Venus in hard aspect to Uranus, watch for disruptions in personal relationships and general plans. Expect the unexpected! For you, these disruptions and surprises are likely to occur in the realms of communications, relations with acquaintances, romance, speculation, and children.

June 10-12 Operative energies include the Sun sextile Mars and Saturn, and Mars trine Saturn. We are able to creatively solve problems and to instinctively take action when necessary now. It's easy to stick to a specific task and make headway. Work takes on definite shape, and we can see results from our efforts. This gives us a sense of responsibility and a feeling of directedness and purposefulness. This is a good time to temper our energy and to exercise better judgment, as well as to get and feel organized. Traditional methods work, and thoroughness brings rewards. Practical considerations are favored over impulsive decisions. For you, organizing your papers, working environment, and communication systems do wonders for a feeling of stability. Financial plans, particularly joint or support finances, may be stabilized or clinched now. Friendships could be especially supportive, and business income solidified.

June 13 Operative energies include the Sun trine Neptune and Mars sextile Neptune. Interesting synchronicities can occur now. We may be at the right place at the right time, probably because our hunches are more likely to be correct and we are "tuned in". Instinctual judgment is enhanced under these influences. This period favors dancing, swimming, photography, the arts, and entertainment--mediums in which we act upon our more spiritual or artistic inclinations. It's a time when we are guided by intuition more than reason. Taking action towards the attainment of a dream can also figure now. For you, interesting twists to your life story could occur now, particularly surrounding friendships, long-term dreams, or business income. An unusual communication could be part of the picture.

June 14 New Moon in Gemini in your solar first house affects you until the next New Moon in July. 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.

June 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.

June 14-16 Mercury is stationary retrograde now, and will remain retrograde until July 9th--a cycle when rethinking matters 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 they might need revision later.

June 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.

June 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.

June 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.

June 29-30 Operative energies include Mars-Uranus, Sun-Saturn, Sun-Neptune, and Venus-Neptune hard aspects. The contrast between what is real and what is only a dream is explicit. It's best to avoid beginning a new project for the time being, as there is a lack of clarity now. For you, long-standing challenges regarding communications, education, or belief systems can reach a head now before final resolve. Disappointments and frustrations are likely. As well, romantic illusions, feeling unappreciated on the job, and the erratic behavior of friends could be part of the picture now.

June 30 Full Moon in Capricorn in your solar eighth house. 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. You may be in a position wherein you are forced to make a financial settlement or large outlay of cash; or, you may find that you are leaned upon for support, financial or otherwise.

Gemini (Born June 1 to 11) and Gemini Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Gemini:

May 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

May

Overview.

All month, the Sun travels through your twelfth house, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break. It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.

May is a mostly quiet month for you--a time to gather your energies and to close important projects. Nevertheless, your mental energies are quickened from the 11-28 while Mercury is in your sign, favoring any task that involves getting your point across effectively! Your romantic life stabilizes and deepens. A disappointment leads to a breakthrough on the 5-7, and the uncovering of a secret occurs on the 22nd. A conflict between the demands of a partnership and the those of your career occurs this month, likely due to a decreased concern with your worldly affairs.

This month, Jupiter squares Uranus and trines Saturn. These long-term energies have been with us since January and March, respectively. For you, the lines of communication open up between you and a special someone. Sharing daily events and goings-on with one another gives you much pleasure. This can also suggest a real learning experience with someone with whom you can bounce ideas off and come to a better understanding of how you define yourself. Learning about the world around you through the eyes of a special person--or through other one-to-one relationships, such as clients--is a pleasing theme now and in the months to come. Nevertheless, you could also experience some conflict between the demands of a partnership and the demands of career. This is likely due to the fact that you are taking more pleasure and interest in your relationship, and your more worldly affairs are not quite as interesting to you as a result. Try not to instigate change just for the sake of change, and avoid rash behavior. On the other hand, if you look for opportunities, you have more confidence and faith now to do something totally different, and inspiration may be found now. But do avoid blowing off responsibilities while you pursue your new vision.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms stimulating connections to the Sun, Mars, Chiron, Venus, and Neptune on the 1-2, 8-9, 19-21 (with tension), and 22-23, representing opportunity periods for you. On the 1-2, you may be recognized as an authority or for the things you do best. Energy and enterprise are with you on the 8-9. On the 19-21, others tend to trust you implicitly and enjoy your more unique qualities, but you should avoid overextending yourself. Pay attention to synchronicities on the 22-23, when gentleness gets you everywhere. Others find you mysterious and fascinating. This is also a strong period for career and reputation matters. Self-expression flows. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 3-5, 7, 10, 27, and 29, when you may feel neglected, slighted, or unappreciated. Avoid power plays and the people who play them on the 3-5 and 27th. You are more likely to feel blocked, thwarted, and misunderstood now. Disillusionments are likely on the 7th.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 4-6 (with some challenges) and 21. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 8-9, and 19-20.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 1, 20-21, and 24-25. These days 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 6-11, 14, 22-23, and 28-29. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. With regard to your serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 4-7 and 30-31. Use these periods for strengthening your connection or attracting a serious partnership. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 1, 8-10, 19-20, and 23. Watch for a face-off on the 19-20.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 8-9. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 3-4, 6-7, 10, 12-14, 19-20, and 27 (especially), when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 1, 5-6, 22-23, and 30-31. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur on the 7, 12-14, 24-25, and 28, when others may not see you in the best light!

Venus continues to transit your solar first house until the 18th. During this trend, a strong desire for companionship and sociability dominates. You want to maintain peace and harmony at all costs. You try to be just and fair when making decisions, as you do your best to see both sides of an issue. Women are likely to enter your life, helping or hindering personal or business affairs. You prefer the company of others, rather than going it alone. Others notice and perhaps admire you for your pleasant and cheerful personality. This is good for your ego, endowing greater self-esteem and an excellent opinion of yourself. This renewed popularity increases success, for you have the tact and diplomacy to deal with people well. Attention is placed on personal appearance, with an interest in jewelry, hairstyling, and clothing. You are more bold in your love nature, yet not aggressive either. You make friends easily during this cycle, and you are especially fond of love and admiration. Artistic self-expression is important, possibly through music, clothing or writing.

Venus warms your solar second house from the 18th. As the natural ruler of this sector of the chart, Venus feels right "at home" here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it--you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.

Mercury transits your private solar twelfth house from the 2-16. During this trend, your mind is focused on private matters and past issues. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers. This is a good time for research, quiet contemplation, and meditation; but do avoid being dragged down by issues that have outgrown their worth and purpose. Examining the past in order to improve the future is certainly worthwhile, as long as you don't waste your energy on guilt.

Mercury transits your solar first house from the 16th. This is a cycle in which you tend to talk more readily, particularly about your own personal likes and dislikes or your personal past. Your demeanor is light-hearted and curious, and others might turn to you for advice, as you appear to be more rational than usual. This is the time of year when you can most easily use the power of words to attract what you want for yourself.

Mars continues to activate your solar tenth house until the 29th, bringing dynamic energy to all career, professional, and public matters. You could easily find that your talents or services are especially in demand now. Courage, ambition, energy, enterprise, force, emotional involvement, business acumen, and a strong perhaps even compulsive drive for success can lead to professional recognition. You always like to see practical results for your efforts and take pride in doing a job correctly, and this is a good cycle in which to show your leadership skills. Don't, however, let your enterprising nature get interpreted as aggressiveness or insensitivity.

 

Highlights:

May 2 Full Moon in Scorpio in your solar sixth house. Avoid blaming others for your own state of discontent. You can use this surge of emotional energy to make positive changes to your routines. Do something to improve your work conditions if they are annoying you--even if it's a small act of kindness with a co-worker or bringing in something to brighten up your desk or office. Get going on your exercise or nutrition program that you've been toying with in your mind. This may also be a time when a work project comes to fruition or completion.

May 3-5 Operative energies include the Sun conjunct Mercury and in hard aspect with Pluto; and Mercury square Saturn. Our wants are aligned with our thoughts, and problem-solving comes naturally. What we say or write now has impact, for better or for worse! However, we are not very good at truly listening to what others have to say, and when we do, we tend to read between the lines with a negative slant. Our minds are investigative. Some of us could feel troubled or stressed with these influences. For you, intense conversations about the past could figure now. News that irritates or troubles you may arrive now.

May 5-6 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 7-9 Operative energies include Venus opposition Pluto; Sun square Saturn and sextile Uranus; Mercury square Neptune and sextile Mars. Intense social interactions are likely during this period. Frustrations involving blocked will and evasiveness can drive us to come up with creative solutions to problems now. For you, deceptive or confusing situations and people could figure strongly now. Misunderstandings are likely, but eventually lead to progress and clarity. Power struggles with a romantic partner could also ensue.

May 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.

May 12-14 Operative energies include Mars square Pluto, Sun square Neptune, and Venus sesquiquadrate Neptune. Our desires are intense and difficult to satisfy right now. Some disillusionments are likely, as we tend to see what we want to see rather than what is. For you, this is a challenging period for relationships with acquaintances or neighbors as well as a romantic partner or interest. A lover may be evasive or hard to understand. Power plays with a friend are possible now. Tension regarding business income could also figure now.

May 16 New Moon in late Taurus in your solar twelfth house affects you until the next New Moon in June. 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—a period that is more active and busy than this one. 

May 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.

May 19-20 Operative energies include Mars sesquiquadrate Saturn, Sun inconjunct Pluto, and Mercury opposite Jupiter and square Uranus. There is a feeling of being blocked when we are attempting to go after what we want. Adjustments are necessary now in order for our lives to move forward. The need to make changes in our life that will further our psychological development arise now. Decision-making, however, may be based on unrealistic or overly optimistic premises. For you, this could be a period of blind optimism. Challenges with business income or regarding group associations could figure. Work matters could leave you feeling unappreciated.

May 20-21 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.

May 25 Venus trines Uranus. We lose our fear of taking risks at this time, 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 have an offbeat, pleasant attitude and people are more willing to socialize. For you, this is a pleasant influence for romantic relationships, creativity, and relationships with children. A fun surprise could lift your spirits. It's also good for feeling secure and/or compensated on the job.

May 27-28 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.

May 31 Full Moon in Sagittarius in your solar seventh house. The New Moon was all about you. Now it's time to strike a balance with an "other". The seventh house represents an important one-to-one relationship--a marriage partner, significant other, business partner, or an adversary. It's time to strike a balance between your own needs and those of another. It's time to compromise and negotiate. Partnership "tests" are possible now, but so is a chance to truly connect to a special someone in your life.

Gemini (Born June 1 to 11) and Gemini Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Gemini:

April 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

April

Overview. All month, the Sun puts a spotlight on your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true. It's a sociable sector of your chart, and that's exactly how you are feeling--happy, lighthearted, and social. Group affiliations capture your attention. Connections can be made now and networking pays off. Being part of a community or circle of friends and building your social network is important to you at this time. This is a rather happy, goal-oriented cycle. A lively agenda is promised, you're attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is high. A stronger sense of community is with you during this cycle. Relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. This is a time to follow your dreams and ideals, and to plant a seed in the form of a wish for the future.

Your social agenda is lively and rewarding in April. A new friendship or group association arrives in the second half of the month. Grab opportunities that come to pass through friends and associates on the 19-22nd. Use extra caution when operating machinery or while driving, as you are more inclined to impulsiveness. Personal magnetism is at a yearly peak from the 12th. Career activity is especially notable this month. Professional exposure or other forms of publicity arrive in the last week of April. Others take note of your accomplishments, and some surprises are in store.

Jupiter retrogrades this month, kicking off a retrograde period that lasts until the first week of August, and involves some re-thinking of matters surrounding negotiations and close partnerships. By August, you will be ready to move forward in these areas with gusto. Saturn's direct motion this month suggests that any stagnation you've been experiencing with communications, siblings, and neighbors will begin to lift and these matters start to move forward. It's also a helpful influence for financial and intimate matters.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms stimulating connections to Uranus, Venus, Chiron, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto on the 1, 5-8, 19, 21-22, and 26, representing opportunity periods for you. Surprises are likely on the 1st; romantic and financial energy arrives on the 5-8; and on the 19th, others naturally appreciate the unique qualities that make you "you". The 21-22 is a strong period for you--real accomplishments can be realized now. The 26th brings increased personal influence and new information that breaks down barriers. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 2-4, 9-10, 12, 14, and 27-28, when you may feel neglected, slighted, or unappreciated.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 1-5, and 26-29 (with mixed results). Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 21-23.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 5-8, 24-25, 27-28, and 30. These days 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 1-4, 10-11, 20-23, and 29. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. With regard to your serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 9-10 and 21. Use these periods for strengthening your connection or attracting a serious partnership. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 2-4, 24-25, 27-28, and 30.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 4-5, 14-19, and 26. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 9-11, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 9-12 and 21-22. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur on the 2-4, 14, 24-25, when others may not see you in the best light!

Until the 20th, Venus moves through your privacy sector. Matters of the heart touch you deeply. You may willingly play a supportive role to a partner, offering him or her more compassion and selfless love. If a romance were to begin during this period, it would likely be a private or even secret one. What you don't know might just be helping you right now, because what's happening behind your back is moving in your favor and all will come out happily when your dreams become a reality soon enough. Venus comes out of "hiding" on the 20th, when your emotions will be on your sleeve. For now, laying low is best in the love department.

Venus warms your solar first house from the 20th. During this trend, a strong desire for companionship and sociability dominates. You want to maintain peace and harmony at all costs. You try to be just and fair when making decisions, as you do your best to see both sides of an issue. Women are likely to enter your life, helping or hindering personal or business affairs. You prefer the company of others, rather than going it alone. Others notice and perhaps admire you for your pleasant and cheerful personality. This is good for your ego, endowing greater self-esteem and an excellent opinion of yourself. This renewed popularity increases success, for you have the tact and diplomacy to deal with people well. Attention is placed on personal appearance, with an interest in jewelry, hairstyling, and clothing. You are more bold in your love nature, yet not aggressive either. You make friends easily during this cycle, and you are especially fond of love and admiration. Artistic self-expression is important, possibly through music, clothing or writing.

Mercury continues its journey through your career and reputation sector until the 16th, suggesting that your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to professional worldly ambitions where knowledge and education are pursued in order to enhance career prospects or social standing. Your mental qualities are well suited to managerial posts and any work requiring communication skill and executive ability during this cycle.

Mercury transits your friendship sector from the 16th. Your mind is bright, alert, and active during this cycle, and you have the ability to come up with unusual and inventive ideas. Sharing your thoughts with others is a prime interest. Others tend to particularly enjoy your conversations during this transit--you are willing to listen as well as add your own thoughts. As well, your ability to grasp unusual subject matter and to intuitively understand what others are trying to say win you some brownie points! You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals.

Mars continues to energize your solar ninth house until the 19th. During this cycle, you continue to exert your energy and initiative
through self-development, travel, exploration, sports, religion, philosophy, or higher education, in order to gain a broad experience of life. You enjoy any form of intellectual challenge, and you possess a crusading spirit, breadth of vision and strong religious or philosophical convictions. You are looking for adventure.

Mars energizes and activates your solar tenth house from the 19th. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it's professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.
 

Highlights:

April 2 Full Moon in Libra in your solar fifth house. Relationships come into focus--dependency issues surface now. You want to have fun, and the demands of your larger goals in life may have been eclipsing your pleasure-seeking activities. It can be hard to find time for everything you want to do, but without creative self-expression (be it romantic or playful), you simply won't feel complete. It's time to do something self-expressive, fun, and creative. You may be required to complete a creative project at this time. You could feel an overwhelming need to pour your heart out to a lover, or a romantic affair reaches some sort of epiphany. There could be a whirlwind of activity surrounding your child or children.

April 2-3 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 7-8 Operative energies include Mercury sextile Venus and the Sun trine Saturn. This is a good time for us to take care of practical and "earthly" matters. Meeting responsibilities is satisfying now. For you, solid achievement can be realized with mental work. Pleasant and stable intimate relationships also figure now. This is also a strong period for you on a magnetic level--you can attract what (or who) you want more readily now.

April 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.

April 9-12 Operative energies include Sun trine Jupiter and sextile Neptune; and Mercury square Pluto. Idealistic and humanitarian goals or impulses surface now, although a suspicious attitude or stance could also be part of the picture. For you, relationship matters are strong and are likely to be infused with spirit, hope, and optimism. However, you may not be received well with some with your ruler square Pluto. Avoid coming on too strong, and avoid sarcasm now that could be misinterpreted too easily.

April 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.

April 17 New Moon late Aries in your solar eleventh house affects you until the next New Moon in May. The eleventh house is a sector 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.

April 18-19 Operative energies include Sun trine Pluto and Mercury sextile Chiron. Intensity of focus, healing conversations, and a renewed sense of purpose are with us now. For you, this period is especially strong for uncovering information, revealing conversations, and strengthened ties with others. It's also powerful for close personal relationships. You are believed and respected right now, just for being you!

April 20-21 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 21-22 Operative energies include Mercury trine Jupiter and Saturn and sextile Neptune. Strong productivity on mental levels characterizes this combination. It's a good period for coming up with successful business plans and strategies. This is yet another combination in April that is strong for strengthening relationships through healthy and logical communication. Applying logic and reason to relationship issues works well now. You are presenting yourself with authority and respect, and others take note.

April 22-23 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.

April 26-30 A creative combination occurs now, involving a T-square between Venus, Jupiter, Mars and Uranus. Saturn and Neptune form harmonious angles to the Venus-Jupiter opposition. This exciting configuration stimulates your close partnership and career sectors. Expect the unexpected on the job, in your career, or regarding your reputation--events that occur now could cause or illuminate tensions in a close partnership. Avoid rebellious attitudes towards authority or duty. Be strategic rather than impulsive now.

April 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.

Gemini (Born June 1 to 11) and Gemini Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Gemini:

March 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

March

Overview. All month, the Sun puts a spotlight on your tenth house--the most visible sector of the chart. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your "place" or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. 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. Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.

Emotions run high for a family member on the 3rd, when you can safely expect the unexpected on the home front. Misunderstandings and communication challenges that have been part of your life recently clear up by the 9th, when projects begin to move forward. New career developments grab your attention this month, particularly on the 5th and 25th, when unexpected events trigger new directions. This month is excellent for a serious conversation with a close partner. Feeling secure and supported is the end result.

From the 7th, Mercury turns direct and matters that have been stagnant for you begin to move forward. Mercury leaves its storm on the 16th, when "all things Mercury" tend to resume near-normal pace, and leaves its shadow on March 27th. From the 16-27th, we have a chance to revisit matters that may have stumped or annoyed us while Mercury was retrograde, or to put into action ideas that came to us during this cycle. For you, communications with with professors, lawyers, and family members resume with less confusion and more clarity.

Two eclipses occur this month. One is a Lunar Eclipse on the 3rd at 13 degrees Virgo. Its opposition to Uranus brings a surprising turn of events. The other is a Solar Eclipse on the 19th at 28 degrees of Pisces. The effects of eclipses stay with us for as long as six months, and they reveal main areas of focus for this half-year period. A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. Therefore, major decision-making is best avoided from March 1-3 and then March 12-19th.

The Lunar Eclipse on the 3rd stimulates your solar fourth house. Surprises surrounding your home, family, and domestic life are in store. Something that has been in hiding or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Your sector of house and home, property, family, parents, and foundations is involved. This could manifest, for example, as the culmination of a project on the home, an event involving a family member or parent that grabs your complete attention, a flurry of activity in your home that demands attention, and other such possibilities.

The Solar Eclipse on the 19th marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar tenth house, suggesting that a new approach to your career or a new career direction altogether is in store for you. New business plans and goals may be formed in the coming month, and a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your career goals is a strong potential. This is a phase in which you will be especially busy with career and/or public responsibilities.

Jupiter trines Saturn this month, linking your third and seventh houses in a pleasing way. This is a period of constructive accomplishment. We are practical, realistic, and our judgment is especially sound--and we derive much satisfaction from practical accomplishment. The key to harnessing this wonderful energy is to identify and find pleasure in the simple things that make you happy. For you, the lines of communication open up between you and a special someone. Sharing daily events and goings-on with one another gives you much pleasure. This can also suggest a real learning experience with someone with whom you can bounce ideas off and come to a better understanding of how you define yourself. Learning about the world around you through the eyes of a special person--or through other one-to-one relationships, such as clients--is a pleasing theme now and in the months to come.

Your ruler, Mercury, is moving slowly for part of the month, forming less aspects than usual. It leaves its retrograde period on the 7th and then resumes regular speed from the 16th. Mercury forms pleasing connections to Pluto, Chiron, and Venus this month on the 1st, 4-6, and 15-18, representing opportunity periods for you. Uncovering new information or insight is likely on the 1st. Gaining respect is especially easy on the 4-6, when humble confidence gets you everywhere. The 15-18 brings love, pleasure, and good feelings, as your personal charm is appreciated by all (or at least the people that matter!). Connections made on the job could be part of the picture. Only one red flag period--a time when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occurs this month on the 2nd, and it�s not a terrible one. However, you could feel underappreciated at this time.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 8-9 and 13-18. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided in the first week of the month, as well as the 10th and 21-24.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 2-3, 7-10 (especially strong), 16, and 30-31. These days 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 17-18, 21, and 28-29. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. For more serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 7-8, 14-18, and 22-24. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 1-2, 9th, and 21st.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 1st and 16-17. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 15th, 19-20, and 28-29, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 9-10 and 24-26. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur in the first week of the month and the 27th, when others may not see you in the best of lighting!

Venus transits your eleventh house until the 26th, and a friendly, equality-minded, although somewhat detached energy surrounds your love life. Earnings from a business get a pleasant boost as well. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are likely to enjoy a strong feeling of happiness and solidarity in friendship, or with groups of like-minded individuals. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to occur during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.

Venus is in your private twelfth house from the 26th--keeping secrets and sacrifices become the major themes in your love and financial life.

Mercury transits your ninth house until the 28th. Cross-cultural exchanges, a visit or significant communication from someone far away, and/or a long journey broaden your thinking. Your thoughts are lifted above the usual daily concerns and immediate business into thoughts and visions about future, larger goals, and the purpose and meaning of your activities. You are putting everything into a larger context. Discussions and/or reading on issues of faith and of the spirit are likely to be a part of this. Do be more cautious with your communications while Mercury is retrograde until the 7th, however. Be as clear as you can to avoid misunderstandings.

Mars transits your intimacy sector until the 10th, and your personal, intimate life speeds up. You experience every situation intensely and deeply during this cycle, even though your outward actions do not necessarily reveal this fact. You could find yourself attracted to mysterious or even dangerous situations. Sometimes this transit correlates with disputes over money. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support. Circumstances in life are likely to occur that require you to take the lead or to apply personal action in connection with joint finances.

Mars activates and energizes your ninth house from the 10th. During this period, you are especially enthusiastic and more bold than usual. Some restlessness and hunger for adventure is experienced now. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities, and you may find that you have a lot of energy for higher studies, travel, or simply new subjects. Negative potentials include being excessively opinionated or getting easily fired up over differences in points of view, or legal fights.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 1-9, when natural charm is the way to go; and the 11-24, when energy is with you and you can further your personal interests with few interruptions.

Highlights:

March 1-3 Operative energies include Mercury sextile Pluto, Venus sextile Chiron, Mars semi-square Jupiter. New information begins to come to light, and we have the power to heal our social relationships. Because this period occurs just before a lunar eclipse, hold off on finalizing any deals or plans if you can, however. But do pay attention to the information that surfaces now. For you, this is a strong period for personal influence and romantic expression.

March 3 Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo in your solar fourth house. Flaws in an important system in your life come to light. The effects of this eclipse last for six months. The last two weeks have found you working hard towards your career goals and other public matters. The demands of your personal life are now paramount. Striking a balance between energy spent on work and energy spent on domestic matters is essential now. Balanced attention to your public and personal lives is what you need to focus on. It's time to prioritize. Otherwise, you run the risk of over-extending yourself. A home, family, or property matter could grab your complete attention at this time.

March 4-5 The Sun conjuncts Uranus in your solar tenth house. You may make an important discovery that changes your identity in the world and your important personal goals, or that affects your reputation. A strong spirit of restlessness, freedom, and idealism comes over you, and you cannot go on in the old way. You could have conflicts with authorities for ignoring rules and policies, and stubbornly insist on doing it your way. Whatever you've outgrown or accepted begrudgingly up until now will be challenged, and may quickly be given the boot. You can get somewhat ungrounded, overly idealistic, or unnecessarily provocative now. Extreme behaviors can land you in hot water. If you are open to change, you could have an exciting epiphany that ultimately takes you in new directions.

March 6-7 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.

March 8-9 Operative energies include Venus trine Jupiter and Saturn, Venus sextile Neptune, and Sun square Jupiter. This is an especially strong influence for creative output and is also excellent for cementing relationships. Because the grand trine affects your relationship sectors, it's strong for strengthening ties to partners, acquaintances, and friends. It's also an excellent period for showing your reliability to a romantic partner.

March 11-12 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 15-16 Operative energies include Mars conjunct Chiron, Mercury sextile Venus, and Venus trine Pluto. Gaining new perspectives on romantic and sexual relationships, or on creative projects, occurs now. We seek out others, but won't settle for superficial connections. This can be a time of epiphanies and release of suppressed energies. For you, your powers of attraction increase. Epiphanies regarding your friendships or associations are also likely now. This is a very strong period for attracting or enhancing love. Important contracts and new beginnings, however, are best avoided until after the Solar Eclipse on the 18th.

March 18-19 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 18 New Moon Solar Eclipse in late Pisces in your solar tenth house affects you for the next six months. A time to focus on goals involving compassion, letting go of the past, and acceptance. Nagging problems from the past six months need to be dealt with and put behind you. 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.

March 22-25 A mixed bag of energies operant now brings challenges and possible enlightenment. Mars in your ninth house opposes Saturn, sextiles Jupiter, and conjuncts Neptune. You may have to deal with challenges in your relationships with acquaintances, in-laws, neighbors, or fellow students now. This can also play out via transportation problems or feeling overburdened with things to do. A positive, growth-oriented outcome is favored, however, if you draw upon your powers of negotiation and compromise, or through a close partner.

March 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.

March 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 possible.

March 28-29 Venus forms tense angles to Chiron and Pluto. This is a less than ideal period for financial transactions and for social relationships. Tensions derived from lack of trust are likely now. Issues from the past might resurface now, likely revolving around trust and integrity. Romantic challenges or tension with children are also possible now.

Gemini (Born June 1 to 11) and Gemini Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Gemini:

February 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

February

Overview. All month, the Sun spotlights your adventure sector. Your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now. A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don't have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning, will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with everyday affairs and important details.

Starting on a brand new course of action in your career path is favored in the first week of the month. A new discovery or a chance meeting with an influential person may pave the way to better working conditions. There could be some disappointing news regarding finances mid-month, which may leave you feeling tense. The second half of February could be riddled with minor challenges--projects are put on hold, and you might be feeling misunderstood. Problems encountered now will be ironed out in March, so try not to sweat the small stuff.

This month, Mercury retrogrades from the 13th forward (until March 7th). Mercury retrograde cycles are periods in which communications and transportation matters don't go as smoothly as usual. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your personal presentation or image to others and communications with family because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Occurring in your solar ninth house this time, extra care should be exercised regarding travel or education plans. Delays are very possible. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with professors, lawyers, and family members, or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms some pleasing connections with Chiron, Pluto, and Uranus this month on the 1-3 and 8-11. These represent opportunity periods for you. The 1st is a period in which your natural confidence shines through--you are believed, understood, appreciated, and trusted. On the 8-11, something unexpected comes your way--a pleasant surprise, for example. You may be the one who acts out of character and surprises others in your life. The results will be fabulous. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 17-18. These issues may revolve around joint finances, intimacy, and differences in opinion--matters that certainly grab much of your attention in February. This is a period when impulsiveness can have its consequences.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 19-20. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 10, 13-15, and 25-28. This could be a somewhat challenging month for personal finances.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 1, 7th especially, and 12-13. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. The 7th is particularly auspicious, and likely involves unexpected events and pleasant surprises. Issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 9, 14, 18-20, and 24-25. This would be a less than ideal period to go on a first date, for example. For more serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 2-4 and 17th. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 8-9 and 28th.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 1st and 16-17. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 2nd and 19-20, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation run particularly well on the 7-8. Challenges with these matters are most likely on the 25th and 27-28.

From the 5th, Venus transits your solar tenth house. During this cycle, 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. 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 come across as especially competent.

Mercury moves through your solar ninth house all month. Not content to focus on mundane, practical affairs just now, your mind is on bigger visions, thoughts, and ideals. You are open to expanding your knowledge base during this cycle, and communications from or with someone far away may be part of the picture. You are putting everything into perspective now, rather than compartmentalizing. Instead of simply shooting the breeze, you are more inclined to discuss broader philosophies now. Your inclination during this cycle is to think about the "big picture" rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life. Missing appointments and other forms of forgetfulness could be part of the picture now. Do be more cautious with your communications while Mercury is retrograde from the 13th through to March 7th, however. Be as clear as you can to avoid misunderstandings.

Mars energizes your solar eighth house all month, and your personal, intimate life speeds up. You experience every situation intensely and deeply during this cycle, even though your outward actions do not necessarily reveal this fact. You could find yourself attracted to mysterious or even dangerous situations. Sometimes this transit correlates with disputes over money. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support. Circumstances in life are likely to occur that require you to take the lead or to apply personal action in connection with joint finances.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 1-9, when life's circumstances tend to flow smoothly.

Highlights:

February 2 Full Moon in Leo in your solar third house. 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.

February 3-4 The Sun sextiles Jupiter and Mars sextiles Uranus. This is a strong period for learning, growth, advancement, and adventurous activities. It's favorable for marketing, publishing, and advertising, as well as any self-promotion activities. We may be especially sociable, tolerant, and generous. Confidence comes from a stronger sense of who we are and the principles we represent, as well as an ability to take healthy and reasonable risks.

February 7-8 The Sun conjuncts Neptune and Venus conjuncts Uranus. This is a "make a wish" day. Spiritual goals come into focus. As well, bringing a spirit of friendship and freedom into close personal relationships is featured. Surprising career developments can occur for you now. A confusing communication could also arrive.

February 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.

February 10 The Sun in your ninth house opposes Saturn in your third house. Restrictions and pressures may be felt now revolving around communications and errands. Feeling bogged down with daily activities that prevent you from enjoying broader pleasures may be the theme. Avoid new initiatives now if you can.

February 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.

February 18 New Moon in late Aquarius in your solar ninth house affects you until the next New Moon. A time to focus on goals involving friendships, long-term happiness, dreams, and wishes. The ninth house rules our spirit to grow, explore, and expand beyond the "regular" experiences in our lives. The New Moon here may bring some restlessness and dissatisfaction with regular routines. Make an effort to initiate new projects or activities that expand your mind, feed your spirit for adventure, and stretch your imagination. You may feel renewed by a new perspective on your life, something philosophical or spiritual that you read or learn, or an adventure that takes you away from the mundane routines in your life.

February 18-19 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.

February 24-25 Tense angles operant now include Mars-Uranus, Venus-Neptune, and Venus-Saturn. Relations are likely to be tense. Disillusionments with finances as well as personal relationships are possible. Reckless behavior has consequences. For you, romantic relationships and friendships may be a bit strained. Disappointments that crop up now are temporary.

February 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.

February 27-28 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.

Gemini (Born June 1 to 11) and Gemini Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Gemini:

January 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

January

Overview. All month, the Sun puts a spotlight on your solar eighth house. With the Sun energizing your sector of  transformation, change, sexuality, personal growth, regeneration, others' money and resources, addictions, and taxes, this is not the most gregarious of months for you. You take a step back, focus on intimacy with a partner, or simply retreat a little from the hectic pace of life. This is an excellent time to create a budget or financial plan, or to rid yourself of bad habits that undermine your sense of personal power and self-mastery. All that is deeply personal comes into focus now. Intimate matters are especially important to you during this cycle. Just how well you are handling your life comes up for inspection. Your self-mastery skills and psychological predisposition matter to you more than usual. This is the time of year when you are most desirous of change on a deep level. Clearing out psychic "junk" or ridding yourself of bad habits may be part of the picture now. You are more willing than usual to explore life's secrets. This cycle brings greater in-depth understanding and an inclination to delve beneath the surface of matters to get to the bottom of them. Research uncovers new material that allows you to develop a better overall picture of the year's events. This is an especially introspective cycle during which you have the chance to truly uncover your personal strengths and talents. On a more practical level, you may be dealing with joint finances and shared resources now more than usual.

New Year�s resolutions to kick a bad habit make a lot of sense this month (particularly after the New Moon on the 18th), when your mind is focused on self-improvement and self-mastery skills. A financial revelation comes up around the 3rd, and a strengthening of your financial position is likely on the 7th. Don�t pass up an opportunity to increase your income around the 20th. Partnership matters continue to figure prominently. Around the 22nd, an unexpected partnership opportunity could arise, but avoid jumping to impulsive conclusions about any dealing with a partner now, business or personal.

This month, the first of three Jupiter-Uranus squares occurs, placing some tension between your seventh and tenth houses, from now through October. This could suggest some conflict between the demands of a partnership and the demands of career. This is likely due to the fact that you are taking more pleasure and interest in your relationship, and your more worldly affairs are not quite as interesting to you as a result. Try not to instigate change just for the sake of change, and avoid rash behavior. On the other hand, if you look for opportunities, you have more confidence and faith now to do something totally different, and inspiration may be found now. But do avoid blowing off responsibilities while you pursue your new vision.

This month, the Sun, Venus, and Mercury align with Chiron just behind your solar ninth house. You may enjoy key opportunity periods that expand your awareness or audience, and do wonders for your spirit, particularly if it is in need of some healing. The key now is confidence and not overstating yourself when you express your personal philosophy and opinions. Your realm of influence may expand now. Travel opportunities may present themselves, or a connection can be made to a person who is far away or of a different cultural background than you.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms strong connections on the 3-8, 16-22, 26, and 31, and these represent opportunity periods for you in January. The 20-22 is a particularly auspicious period for you when your personal magnetism and inner strength shines. You more easily influence others to accept your plans or ideas now. Social and romantic activities that give you a sense of emotional well-being figure now. It's an excellent time to revitalize important ties with others. You might have a healing effect on others or vice versa. On the 26th, synchronicities may appear in your life that further your own goals. You do need to watch for over-idealizing people or situations now, however. On the 31, you have opportunities to further your interests and gain some power or influence in a pleasing manner. It's also a strong period for work and health-related matters and partnerships. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 2, 11-13, and 28. Power issues or financial support matters could be part of the picture on the 2nd; some feelings of discouragement or let down could figure on the 11-13; and the same goes for the 28th, when you could be feeling left out or overburdened (these are temporary).

Better periods for personal finances occur on the 7-9. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 2, 11, 13-14, 22, and 26-28.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 4-6, 10-12, 18-19, 25-26, and 29-31. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. The 10-12 is particularly auspicious. Romance with or through a foreigner is possible. Issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 1, 13-14, and 22. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. For more serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 1, 4-6, and 11. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 12 and 15-17.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 7-9. 18-20, 25-26, and 31. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 22 and 27, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation run best on the 1st, and especially the 18-19 and 26th. Challenges in these matters are most likely on the 21-22.

Until the 12th, Venus continues to transit the most intense and intimate sector of your chart. During this period, you carry yourself with a more sensual quality. It's a strong period for taking stock of your creative forces. Discover new ways to enhance and increase investment programs or add to your savings account. A female may be a source of financial gain or drain in connection with mutual funds.

Venus moves through your solar ninth house from the 12th. A taste for the exotic takes hold during this cycle. Routine affairs simply don't seem to satisfy. You receive pleasure from anything that expands your horizons, both physically and mentally. Foreign people and places may particularly appeal now. You tend to be expansive and generous when it comes to love. A love interest who attracts you during this cycle may be somebody who you previously wouldn't consider attractive, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. You have a taste for the exotic and the spirit to match. Public relations work, promotion, and other such endeavors are favored now. It is more about how you express yourself than the specifics of what you are saying that helps sway others to your position. There could be especial rapport with foreigners and with women if you are traveling during this period. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. If a romance were to begin now, it is more likely to be with someone of a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. You have a taste for the exotic now that can show up in many areas of your life--who you are attracted to, what you buy, the kind of art or entertainment you enjoy, and so forth.

Mercury moves through your solar eighth house from the 3-27. You are more intuitive now than usual, picking up all of the hidden cues from people around you and reading between the lines. This is an excellent cycle in which to do some financial planning and strategizing. Research is also highly favored. It's also easier for you to approach sensitive, intimate, and personal matters with rationality and logic. As such, this is a great time to open up conversations about topics that normally might cause waves, such as those revolving around the sharing of power, intimacy, and finances.

Mars activates your solar seventh house all month. Partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or adversaries may be challenging. Use this energy to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone's help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Relationships are vivacious and dynamic during this period. When a difference arises, you are quick to settle it, and have little patience for sweeping matters under the rug. Your close personal relationships are lively during this cycle--full of conflicts and resolutions or reconciliations.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 12-20, a period that is especially strong for personal charm and attracting pleasant circumstances into your life; and the 21-27, when your ideas and opinions are received particularly well.

Highlights:

January 1-2 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.

January 1-2 Jupiter sextiles Chiron, the Sun sextiles Uranus, and Mars sextiles Neptune. This is a creative period for all--one in which we can find new insights into old problems. Willingness to embrace change is the key to success now. For you, a boost to your close partnerships is probable now. This is also a good time for a pleasantly surprising communication.

January 3 Full Moon in Cancer in your solar second house. Some sort of fulfillment, culmination, or revelation regarding your desires or new initiatives at the last New Moon on December 20th occurs now. Intimacy, issues of power and control, or joint finances may have been a focus for the last two weeks. Now it's time to recognize what makes you comfortable. This Full Moon is about balancing the give and take of intimacy--the giving and receiving of pleasure. Sharing issues come into focus, as do issues of power--what's yours and what's mine. Your comfort zones matter, and now is the time to take care of your own needs without eclipsing the needs of others.

January 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.

January 6-8 The Sun and Mercury align and Mars trines Saturn. These planetary influences suggest rational, logical, and productive energy. We are actively communicating, and our work takes on definite shape. This is a good time to temper our energy and to exercise better judgment. Traditional methods work, and thoroughness brings rewards. For you, an intimate conversation makes for a more secure and grounded feeling. This is an excellent period in which to discuss plans for the future, particularly with an intimate partner. You are able to present yourself with a strong air of responsibility and authority. You are noticed and acknowledged.

January 10-11 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.

January 10-12 Venus joins with Chiron and sextiles Jupiter. This is a healing and friendly energy--an excellent time to socialize, promote cooperation, spend time with romantic partners, and to initiate a new relationship or friendship. It's also very strong for financial matters. For you, this is a strong opportunity period for partnerships of all kinds. A meeting of minds can occur now, and can be especially healing and growth-oriented. A power day for love matters as well as negotiations.

January 13-14 Mars joins with Pluto and Venus semi-squares both planets; Mercury semi-squares Uranus. Keywords for this period include intense, passionate, rebellious, and obsessive! Tense interplays between lovers are quite likely now, and the inclination to rebel against routine or expectations is strong. Harness the energy of Mars-Pluto by pouring your energy into a pet project. Sexual relations now can be very intense. Competitive energy is powerful. With your ruler in tense angle to Uranus, an unexpected circumstance can figure now. Others may not be appreciating your behavior, or you could feel misunderstood. A partnership matter grabs your attention.

January 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.

January 18 New Moon in late Capricorn in your solar eighth house affects you until the next New Moon. A time to focus on long-term goals and projects and to formulate career and business plans. This is a time of empowerment. It is a good time to focus on issues of intimacy as well as developing self-mastery skills. You may experience increased awareness of others—what makes them tick—as well as your own internal motivations during this period. It is a time when intimacy and deep levels of sharing are heightened. It is also a favorable time to start a financial plan, savings plan, take out a loan or consolidate, and do work in accounting.

January 18-20 Venus joins with Neptune and Mercury conjoins Chiron. This can be a very romantic time, although the tendency can be towards seeing what we want to see rather than what is, so romantic mirages are possible now. Kind, healing words and communications are also featured now. A good time to discover new or alternative health procedures and regimes. Soft, pleasant energy dominates. For you, this influence can be a romantic one, and possibly with someone long-distance or from a different cultural background that you. An important conversation or communication with an intimate partner or family member can occur now. Words can heal--use them to mend fences or simply to reassure. You are appreciated for what makes you unique right now. Recognition comes naturally.

January 22-23 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 25-26 Venus sextiles Pluto and Mercury aligns with Neptune. An excellent period for romantic and artistic expression. However, don't expect communications to be right-brain, logical, or clear! It's best to delay important decisions. A good period for romance and dreamy conversations. For you, a strong connection can be made from a distant place, and professional matters are positive. You might form a creative or romantic association through business.

January 27-28 Mercury and Mars form challenging angles to Saturn. This can be a tense period in which hitting brick walls is likely. Delay important discussions and avoid beginning new projects, which could be riddled with frustrations and complications down the road.

January 28-29 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.

January 30-31 The Sun joins Chiron and Mercury sextiles Pluto. An excellent period for coming up with innovative new techniques, socializing, and gaining perspective on our long-term goals. It's easy to resolve problems, particularly old, nagging ones, and to cooperate with others in a balanced manner.

January 30-31 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.

Gemini (Born June 12 to 21)
AND Gemini Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Gemini:

June 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

June

Overview.

Until the 11th, the Sun "hibernates" in your solar twelfth house. This is a time when you recharge your batteries, rest up, reflect, and perhaps close matters that have run their natural course. During this cycle, a sense of personal fulfillment is reinforced by resolving subconscious influences or matters from the past. You will instinctively withdraw from the hustle and bustle of daily life in an attempt to get to know yourself, your goals, and your needs better. This is an imaginative, perhaps dreamy, time of the year. Some may indulge in self-pity at this time, but as long as they pull strength from it, it might simply be a healthy process. You need time alone now in order to sort things out and to avoid overload!

The Sun illuminates your first house from the 11th, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the height of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence beyond its normal boundaries. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage. It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering�to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature pushes up and out, and it's time to seize opportunities. Problems in your life may be overcome by bravery, self-assertion, and directness. There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for team work and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.

Your personal plans and initiatives are at the forefront of your mind this month, but you are also in the position to make great strides in close relationships. Negotiations come into focus, and an agreement may be finalized, whether formal or informal. This is an excellent month for clearing the air, as long as you are unambiguous and logical. If you are not perfectly clear in your communications, chances are high you will be misinterpreted. Some rethinking of financial plans and strategies will be necessary. You can enjoy strong health and vitality.

In the first half of the month, there is a strong emphasis on your sixth and twelfth house axis, and issues surrounding work and service are in the foreground. Much activity surrounding these "departments" of your life is stimulated.

Mercury begins a retrograde cycle on June 15th and runs until July 9th. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your personal presentation or image to others and communications with family because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Because Mercury is your sign's ruler, all of the Mercury Retrograde issues outlined above apply. Put off making important decisions with regards to family and domestic matters (Virgo-ruled for you) just now, and take care when it comes to communicating with family members. Occurring in your solar first house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to your body language. Others may misinterpret your body language, and you should be aware of a tendency to give off mixed signals. People in your life may complain that you seem emotionally distant. You may appear uncommunicative and hard to reach, or what you say comes out wrong. This is a time to review the manner in which you come across to others--not so much whether it truly reflects your nature, but more in terms of whether it is working for or against you. 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 for the time being.

This month, Saturn and Neptune are in opposition for the final time. This energy first occurred in August 2006 (see our horoscope archives in August for an explanation of the conflict). Some sort of resolve of the conflict is in sight now, although getting to that point could involve some form of disillusionment.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms stimulating connections to the Sun by aspect and by declination this month, on the 10-12 and 28, representing opportunity periods for you. Recognition or acknowledgement is forthcoming during these periods. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 1-2, 4, and 29, when you may feel neglected, slighted, or unappreciated. Some form of disillusionment or the need to face reality on a matter, most likely a partnership issue, is likely on the 1-2 and 4.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 10-12 and 30-July 1. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 1-2 and 25-29.

As far as romantic and creative matters are concerned, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 20 and 30-1 (with some challenges). These are 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 3-4, 5, 8-9, 18-19, 21-22, 25-26, and 29-30. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. With regard to your serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 3-4, 7-8, and 19-20. Use these days for strengthening your connection or attracting a serious partnership. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 5-6 and 21-22.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 4-5, 11-13, and 20-22. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 3, 18-19, and 28-29, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 12-14 and 19-20. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur on the 4-5 and 29-30, when others may not see you in the best light!

Venus continues to transit your solar second house until the 28th. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of the financial with social or public affairs. Diplomacy, correctness in manner, finesse, and charm will be a big plus in aiding financial gains, especially in areas requiring public contact. Although you like the good things of life and may spend quite a bit on clothes, furniture, and entertainment, your innate sense of security will not permit you to go overboard to the point of extravagance. You will have the ability to build up financial reserves and resources, for this placement can bring a good deal of success in all monetary pursuits. Women and partnerships provide the backdrop for monetary gains or losses.

Venus journeys through your solar third house from the 28th. During this cycle you are especially charming in your communications with others. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual. Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips.

Mercury transits your solar first house all month. This is a period in which you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easy. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now. It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity. This is the time to be direct and to communicate your needs and interests. You are more inclined to talk about yourself and your personal past now. This may also be a restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off when it would be better to relax! It is an especially fruitful time for any endeavor that requires dealing with words, ideas, and facts and figures. Your demeanor is more youthful, perhaps mischievous, lighthearted, and non-threatening so that others may be more inclined to turn to you for advice or pleasant conversation. Using the power of words to attract what you want or to further your interests works best for you now. However, these matters could be tricky while Mercury is retrograde from the 15th forward.

Mars energizes your solar eleventh house from the 11th. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others' toes. As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

Highlights:

June 2-3 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 3-6 Operative energies include the Sun trine Chiron and opposite Jupiter; Mars trine Jupiter and sextile Chiron; and Venus sesquiquadrate Jupiter. These influences produce a natural, enterprising spirit. Enthusiasm and confidence are with us now, and it's easy to tap into our more unique qualities and talents in order to go after what we want. However, we also have the tendency to over-reach. For you, this is a strong period for relations with a partner, although there could be some pie-in-the sky thinking.

June 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.

June 9 With the Sun and Venus in hard aspect to Uranus, watch for disruptions in personal relationships and general plans. Expect the unexpected! For you, these disruptions and surprises are likely to occur in the realms of communications, relations with acquaintances, romance, speculation, and children.

June 10-12 Operative energies include the Sun sextile Mars and Saturn, and Mars trine Saturn. We are able to creatively solve problems and to instinctively take action when necessary now. It's easy to stick to a specific task and make headway. Work takes on definite shape, and we can see results from our efforts. This gives us a sense of responsibility and a feeling of directedness and purposefulness. This is a good time to temper our energy and to exercise better judgment, as well as to get and feel organized. Traditional methods work, and thoroughness brings rewards. Practical considerations are favored over impulsive decisions. For you, organizing your papers, working environment, and communication systems do wonders for a feeling of stability. Financial plans, particularly joint or support finances, may be stabilized or clinched now. Friendships could be especially supportive, and business income solidified.

June 13 Operative energies include the Sun trine Neptune and Mars sextile Neptune. Interesting synchronicities can occur now. We may be at the right place at the right time, probably because our hunches are more likely to be correct and we are "tuned in". Instinctual judgment is enhanced under these influences. This period favors dancing, swimming, photography, the arts, and entertainment--mediums in which we act upon our more spiritual or artistic inclinations. It's a time when we are guided by intuition more than reason. Taking action towards the attainment of a dream can also figure now. For you, interesting twists to your life story could occur now, particularly surrounding friendships, long-term dreams, or business income. An unusual communication could be part of the picture.

June 14 New Moon in Gemini in your solar first house affects you until the next New Moon in July. 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.

June 14-16 Mercury is stationary retrograde now, and will remain retrograde until July 9th--a cycle when rethinking matters 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 they might need revision later.

June 15-16 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 17-18 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 24-25 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 29-30 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 29-30 Operative energies include Mars-Uranus, Sun-Saturn, Sun-Neptune, and Venus-Neptune hard aspects. The contrast between what is real and what is only a dream is explicit. It's best to avoid beginning a new project for the time being, as there is a lack of clarity now. For you, long-standing challenges regarding communications, education, or belief systems can reach a head now before final resolve. Disappointments and frustrations are likely. As well, romantic illusions, feeling unappreciated on the job, and the erratic behavior of friends could be part of the picture now.

June 30 Full Moon in Capricorn in your solar seventh house. The New Moon was all about you. Now it's time to strike a balance with an "other". The seventh house represents an important one-to-one relationship--a marriage partner, significant other, business partner, or an adversary. It's time to strike a balance between your own needs and those of another. It's time to compromise and negotiate. Partnership "tests" are possible now, but so is a chance to truly connect to a special someone in your life.

Gemini (Born June 12 to 21)
AND Gemini Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Gemini:

Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

May

Overview.

The Sun illuminates your solar eleventh house until the 11th--a more sociable time of the year for you. This is a rather happy, goal-oriented cycle. A lively agenda is promised, you're attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is strong. A stronger sense of community is with you during this cycle. Making friendly contact with others, in general, is probable. Relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. Towards the 11th, you begin to require a bit of down time, and that's natural after a busy month.

From the 11th, the Sun travels through your twelfth house, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break. It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.

May is a mostly quiet month for you--a time to gather your energies and to close important projects. Nevertheless, your mental energies are quickened from the 11-28 while Mercury is in your sign, favoring any task that involves getting your point across effectively! Your romantic life stabilizes and deepens. A disappointment leads to a breakthrough on the 5-7, and the uncovering of a secret occurs on the 22nd. A conflict between the demands of a partnership and the those of your career occurs this month, likely due to a decreased concern with your worldly affairs.

This month, Jupiter squares Uranus and trines Saturn. These long-term energies have been with us since January and March, respectively. For you, the lines of communication open up between you and a special someone. Sharing daily events and goings-on with one another gives you much pleasure. This can also suggest a real learning experience with someone with whom you can bounce ideas off and come to a better understanding of how you define yourself. Learning about the world around you through the eyes of a special person--or through other one-to-one relationships, such as clients--is a pleasing theme now and in the months to come. Nevertheless, you could also experience some conflict between the demands of a partnership and the demands of career. This is likely due to the fact that you are taking more pleasure and interest in your relationship, and your more worldly affairs are not quite as interesting to you as a result. Try not to instigate change just for the sake of change, and avoid rash behavior. On the other hand, if you look for opportunities, you have more confidence and faith now to do something totally different, and inspiration may be found now. But do avoid blowing off responsibilities while you pursue your new vision.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms stimulating connections to the Sun, Mars, Chiron, Venus, and Neptune on the 1-2, 8-9, 19-21 (with tension), and 22-23, representing opportunity periods for you. On the 1-2, you may be recognized as an authority or for the things you do best. Energy and enterprise are with you on the 8-9. On the 19-21, others tend to trust you implicitly and enjoy your more unique qualities, but you should avoid overextending yourself. Pay attention to synchronicities on the 22-23, when gentleness gets you everywhere. Others find you mysterious and fascinating. This is also a strong period for career and reputation matters. Self-expression flows. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 3-5, 7, 10, 27, and 29, when you may feel neglected, slighted, or unappreciated. Avoid power plays and the people who play them on the 3-5 and 27th. You are more likely to feel blocked, thwarted, and misunderstood now. Disillusionments are likely on the 7th.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 4-6 (with some challenges) and 21. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 8-9, and 19-20.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 1, 20-21, and 24-25. These days 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 6-11, 14, 22-23, and 28-29. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. With regard to your serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 4-7 and 30-31. Use these periods for strengthening your connection or attracting a serious partnership. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 1, 8-10, 19-20, and 23. Watch for a face-off on the 19-20.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 8-9. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 3-4, 6-7, 10, 12-14, 19-20, and 27 (especially), when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 1, 5-6, 22-23, and 30-31. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur on the 7, 12-14, 24-25, and 28, when others may not see you in the best light!

Venus warms your solar first house until the 27th. You could find it hard to deny yourself anything during this cycle! This is a time when you naturally let loose your softer, receptive side. Romantic matters, as well as pleasure-seeking activities, come to the fore now. You are more likely to pay closer attention to your physical appearance and mannerisms, aiming to improve and enhance your attractiveness. Others find you agreeable and cooperative. During this trend, a strong desire for companionship and sociability dominates. You want to maintain peace and harmony at all costs. You try to be just and fair when making decisions, as you do your best to see both sides of an issue. Women are likely to enter your life, helping or hindering personal or business affairs. You prefer the company of others, rather than going it alone. Others notice and perhaps admire you for your pleasant and cheerful personality. This is good for your ego, endowing greater self-esteem and an excellent opinion of yourself. This renewed popularity increases success, for you have the tact and diplomacy to deal with people well. Attention is placed on personal appearance, with an interest in jewelry, hairstyling, and clothing. You are more bold in your love nature, yet not aggressive either. You make friends easily during this cycle, and you are especially fond of love and admiration. Artistic self-expression is important, possibly through music, clothing or writing.

Venus warms your solar second house from the 27th and into June. As the natural ruler of this sector of the chart, Venus feels right "at home" here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it--you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures.

Mercury transits your private solar twelfth house from the 6-22. During this trend, your mind is focused on private matters and past issues. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers. This is a good time for research, quiet contemplation, and meditation; but do avoid being dragged down by issues that have outgrown their worth and purpose. Examining the past in order to improve the future is certainly worthwhile, as long as you don't waste your energy on guilt.

Mercury transits your solar first house from the 22nd. This is a cycle in which you tend to talk more readily, particularly about your own personal likes and dislikes or your personal past. Your demeanor is light-hearted and curious, and others might turn to you for advice, as you appear to be more rational than usual. This is the time of year when you can most easily use the power of words to attract what you want for yourself.

Mars activates your solar tenth house all month, bringing dynamic energy to all career, professional, and public matters. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it's professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.

 

Highlights:

April 30-May 1 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.

May 2 Full Moon in Scorpio in your solar fifth house. You want to have fun, and the demands of your larger goals in life may have been eclipsing your pleasure-seeking activities. It can be hard to find time for everything you want to do, but without creative self-expression (be it romantic or playful), you simply won't feel complete. It's time to do something self-expressive, fun, and creative. You may be required to complete a creative project at this time. You could feel an overwhelming need to pour your heart out to a lover, or a romantic affair reaches some sort of epiphany. There could be a whirlwind of activity surrounding your child or children.

May 3-5 Operative energies include the Sun conjunct Mercury and in hard aspect with Pluto; and Mercury square Saturn. Our wants are aligned with our thoughts, and problem-solving comes naturally. What we say or write now has impact, for better or for worse! However, we are not very good at truly listening to what others have to say, and when we do, we tend to read between the lines with a negative slant. Our minds are investigative. Some of us could feel troubled or stressed with these influences. For you, intense conversations about the past could figure now. News that irritates or troubles you may arrive now.

May 5-6 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 7-9 Operative energies include Venus opposition Pluto; Sun square Saturn and sextile Uranus; Mercury square Neptune and sextile Mars. Intense social interactions are likely during this period. Frustrations involving blocked will and evasiveness can drive us to come up with creative solutions to problems now. For you, deceptive or confusing situations and people could figure strongly now. Misunderstandings are likely, but eventually lead to progress and clarity. Power struggles with a romantic partner could also ensue.

May 12-13 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 12-14 Operative energies include Mars square Pluto, Sun square Neptune, and Venus sesquiquadrate Neptune. Our desires are intense and difficult to satisfy right now. Some disillusionments are likely, as we tend to see what we want to see rather than what is. For you, this is a challenging period for relationships with acquaintances or neighbors as well as a romantic partner or interest. A lover may be evasive or hard to understand. Power plays with a friend are possible now. Tension regarding business income could also figure now.

May 16 New Moon in late Taurus in your solar twelfth house affects you until the next New Moon in June. 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—a period that is more active and busy than this one. 

May 18-19 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 19-20 Operative energies include Mars sesquiquadrate Saturn, Sun inconjunct Pluto, and Mercury opposite Jupiter and square Uranus. There is a feeling of being blocked when we are attempting to go after what we want. Adjustments are necessary now in order for our lives to move forward. The need to make changes in our life that will further our psychological development arise now. Decision-making, however, may be based on unrealistic or overly optimistic premises. For you, this could be a period of blind optimism. Challenges with business income or regarding group associations could figure. Work matters could leave you feeling unappreciated.

May 20-21 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.

May 25 Venus trines Uranus. We lose our fear of taking risks at this time, 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 have an offbeat, pleasant attitude and people are more willing to socialize. For you, this is a pleasant influence for romantic relationships, creativity, and relationships with children. A fun surprise could lift your spirits. It's also good for feeling secure and/or compensated on the job.

May 28-29 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.

May 31 Full Moon in Sagittarius in your solar sixth house. Avoid blaming others for your own state of discontent. You can use this surge of emotional energy to make positive changes to your routines. Do something to improve your work conditions if they are annoying you--even if it's a small act of kindness with a co-worker or bringing in something to brighten up your desk or office. Get going on your exercise or nutrition program that you've been toying with in your mind. This may also be a time when a work project comes to fruition or completion.

Gemini (Born June 12 to 21)
AND Gemini Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Gemini:

April 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

April

Overview. Until the 10th, the Sun spotlights your career and public sector. Focus is on what you do, how you do it, and what you accomplish. Do whatever you can to adopt a serious approach to business because you are in the spotlight. A time when practical vision may be at a high, during which you can see what needs to be done and just how to go about doing it. Career and vocational issues may benefit from the increased clarity you possess.  Much of your energy will be applied to vocational achievement, professional success, and leadership during this cycle. The desire for some form of recognition and financial success is stronger than any other time of the year.

From the 10th, the Sun puts a spotlight on your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true. It's a sociable sector of your chart, and that's exactly how you are feeling--happy, lighthearted, and social. Group affiliations capture your attention. Connections can be made now and networking pays off. Being part of a community or circle of friends and building your social network is important to you at this time. This is a rather happy, goal-oriented cycle. A lively agenda is promised, you're attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is high. A stronger sense of community is with you during this cycle. Relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. This is a time to follow your dreams and ideals, and to plant a seed in the form of a wish for the future.

Your social agenda is lively and rewarding in April. A new friendship or group association arrives in the second half of the month. Grab opportunities that come to pass through friends and associates on the 19-22nd. Use extra caution when operating machinery or while driving, as you are more inclined to impulsiveness. Personal magnetism is at a yearly peak from the 12th. Career activity is especially notable this month. Professional exposure or other forms of publicity arrive in the last week of April. Others take note of your accomplishments, and some surprises are in store.

Jupiter retrogrades this month, kicking off a retrograde period that lasts until the first week of August, and involves some re-thinking of matters surrounding negotiations and close partnerships. By August, you will be ready to move forward in these areas with gusto. Saturn's direct motion this month suggests that any stagnation you've been experiencing with communications, siblings, and neighbors will begin to lift and these matters start to move forward. It's also a helpful influence for financial and intimate matters.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms stimulating connections to Uranus, Venus, Chiron, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto on the 1, 5-8, 19, 21-22, and 26, representing opportunity periods for you. Surprises are likely on the 1st; romantic and financial energy arrives on the 5-8; and on the 19th, others naturally appreciate the unique qualities that make you "you". The 21-22 is a strong period for you--real accomplishments can be realized now. The 26th brings increased personal influence and new information that breaks down barriers. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 2-4, 9-10, 12, 14, and 27-28, when you may feel neglected, slighted, or unappreciated.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 1-5, and 26-29 (with mixed results). Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 21-23.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 5-8, 24-25, 27-28, and 30. These days 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 1-4, 10-11, 20-23, and 29. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. With regard to your serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 9-10 and 21. Use these periods for strengthening your connection or attracting a serious partnership. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 2-4, 24-25, 27-28, and 30.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 4-5, 14-19, and 26. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 9-11, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 9-12 and 21-22. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur on the 2-4, 14, 24-25, when others may not see you in the best light!

From the 3-29, Venus moves through your privacy sector. Matters of the heart touch you deeply. You may willingly play a supportive role to a partner, offering him or her more compassion and selfless love. If a romance were to begin during this period, it would likely be a private or even secret one. What you don't know might just be helping you right now, because what's happening behind your back is moving in your favor and all will come out happily when your dreams become a reality soon enough. Venus comes out of "hiding" on the 29th, when your emotions will be on your sleeve. For now, laying low is best in the love department.

Mercury journeys through your career and reputation sector from the 4-22, suggesting that your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to professional worldly ambitions where knowledge and education are pursued in order to enhance career prospects or social standing. Your mental qualities are well suited to managerial posts and any work requiring communication skill and executive ability during this cycle.

Mercury transits your friendship sector from the 22nd. Your mind is bright, alert, and active during this cycle, and you have the ability to come up with unusual and inventive ideas. Sharing your thoughts with others is a prime interest. Others tend to particularly enjoy your conversations during this transit--you are willing to listen as well as add your own thoughts. As well, your ability to grasp unusual subject matter and to intuitively understand what others are trying to say win you some brownie points! You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals.

Mars energizes your solar ninth house all month. During this period, you are especially enthusiastic and more bold than usual. Some restlessness and hunger for adventure is experienced now. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities, and you may find that you have a lot of energy for higher studies, travel, or simply new subjects. Negative potentials include being excessively opinionated or getting easily fired up over differences in points of view, or legal fights.
 

Highlights:

April 2 Full Moon in Libra in your solar fourth house. Relationships come into focus--dependency issues surface now. The last two weeks have found you working hard towards your career goals and other public matters. The demands of your personal life are now paramount. Striking a balance between energy spent on work and energy spent on domestic matters is essential now. Balanced attention to your public and personal lives is what you need to focus on. It's time to prioritize. Otherwise, you run the risk of over-extending yourself. A home, family, or property matter could grab your complete attention at this time.

April 3-4 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 7-8 Operative energies include Mercury sextile Venus and the Sun trine Saturn. This is a good time for us to take care of practical and "earthly" matters. Meeting responsibilities is satisfying now. For you, solid achievement can be realized with mental work. Pleasant and stable intimate relationships also figure now. This is also a strong period for you on a magnetic level--you can attract what (or who) you want more readily now.

April 8-9 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 9-12 Operative energies include Sun trine Jupiter and sextile Neptune; and Mercury square Pluto. Idealistic and humanitarian goals or impulses surface now, although a suspicious attitude or stance could also be part of the picture. For you, relationship matters are strong and are likely to be infused with spirit, hope, and optimism. However, you may not be received well with some with your ruler square Pluto. Avoid coming on too strong, and avoid sarcasm now that could be misinterpreted too easily.

April 15-16 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 17 New Moon late Aries in your solar eleventh house affects you until the next New Moon in May. The eleventh house is a sector 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.

April 18-19 Operative energies include Sun trine Pluto and Mercury sextile Chiron. Intensity of focus, healing conversations, and a renewed sense of purpose are with us now. For you, this period is especially strong for uncovering information, revealing conversations, and strengthened ties with others. It's also powerful for close personal relationships. You are believed and respected right now, just for being you!

April 21-22 Operative energies include Mercury trine Jupiter and Saturn and sextile Neptune. Strong productivity on mental levels characterizes this combination. It's a good period for coming up with successful business plans and strategies. This is yet another combination in April that is strong for strengthening relationships through healthy and logical communication. Applying logic and reason to relationship issues works well now. You are presenting yourself with authority and respect, and others take note.

April 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.

April 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.

April 26-30 A creative combination occurs now, involving a T-square between Venus, Jupiter, Mars and Uranus. Saturn and Neptune form harmonious angles to the Venus-Jupiter opposition. This exciting configuration stimulates your close partnership and career sectors. Expect the unexpected on the job, in your career, or regarding your reputation--events that occur now could cause or illuminate tensions in a close partnership. Avoid rebellious attitudes towards authority or duty. Be strategic rather than impulsive now.

April 30-May 1 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.

Gemini (Born June 12 to 21)
AND Gemini Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Gemini:

March 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

March

Overview. Until the 10th, the Sun illuminates your ninth house. This transit that started last month 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 10th, the Sun puts a spotlight on your tenth house--the most visible sector of the chart. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your "place" or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. 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. Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.

Emotions run high for a family member on the 3rd, when you can safely expect the unexpected on the home front. Misunderstandings and communication challenges that have been part of your life recently clear up by the 9th, when projects begin to move forward. New career developments grab your attention this month, particularly on the 5th and 25th, when unexpected events trigger new directions. This month is excellent for a serious conversation with a close partner. Feeling secure and supported is the end result.

From the 7th, Mercury turns direct and matters that have been stagnant for you begin to move forward. Mercury leaves its storm on the 16th, when "all things Mercury" tend to resume near-normal pace, and leaves its shadow on March 27th. From the 16-27th, we have a chance to revisit matters that may have stumped or annoyed us while Mercury was retrograde, or to put into action ideas that came to us during this cycle. For you, communications with professors, lawyers, and family members resume with less confusion and more clarity.

Two eclipses occur this month. One is a Lunar Eclipse on the 3rd at 13 degrees Virgo. Its opposition to Uranus brings a surprising turn of events. The other is a Solar Eclipse on the 19th at 28 degrees of Pisces. The effects of eclipses stay with us for as long as six months, and they reveal main areas of focus for this half-year period. A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. Therefore, major decision-making is best avoided from March 1-3 and then March 12-19th.

The Lunar Eclipse on the 3rd stimulates your solar third house. Surprises surrounding your siblings, neighbors, or classmates are in store. Something that has been in hiding or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Your sector of communications is involved. This could manifest, for example, as the culmination of a writing project, an event involving a sibling that grabs your complete attention, a sudden opportunity for an adventure or trip, a flurry of activity in your immediate environment or neighborhood that demands attention, a letter or other communication that holds a big surprise, and other such possibilities.

The Solar Eclipse on the 19th marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar tenth house, suggesting that a new approach to your career or a new career direction altogether is in store for you. New business plans and goals may be formed in the coming month, and a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your career goals is a strong potential. This is a phase in which you will be especially busy with career and/or public responsibilities.

Jupiter trines Saturn this month, linking your third and seventh houses in a pleasing way. This is a period of constructive accomplishment. We are practical, realistic, and our judgment is especially sound--and we derive much satisfaction from practical accomplishment. The key to harnessing this wonderful energy is to identify and find pleasure in the simple things that make you happy. For you, the lines of communication open up between you and a special someone. Sharing daily events and goings-on with one another gives you much pleasure. This can also suggest a real learning experience with someone with whom you can bounce ideas off and come to a better understanding of how you define yourself. Learning about the world around you through the eyes of a special person--or through other one-to-one relationships, such as clients--is a pleasing theme now and in the months to come.

Your ruler, Mercury, is moving slowly for part of the month, forming less aspects than usual. It leaves its retrograde period on the 7th and then resumes regular speed from the 16th. Mercury forms pleasing connections to Pluto, Chiron, and Venus this month on the 1st, 4-6, and 15-18, representing opportunity periods for you. Uncovering new information or insight is likely on the 1st. Gaining respect is especially easy on the 4-6, when humble confidence gets you everywhere. The 15-18 brings love, pleasure, and good feelings, as your personal charm is appreciated by all (or at least the people that matter!). Connections made on the job could be part of the picture. Only one red flag period--a time when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occurs this month on the 2nd, and it�s not a terrible one. However, you could feel underappreciated at this time.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 8-9 and 13-18. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided in the first week of the month, as well as the 10th and 21-24.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 2-3, 7-10 (especially strong), 16, and 30-31. These days 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 17-18, 21, and 28-29. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. For more serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 7-8, 14-18, and 22-24. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 1-2, 9th, and 21st.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 1st and 16-17. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 15th, 19-20, and 28-29, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation tend to thrive on the 9-10 and 24-26. Challenges with these matters are more likely to occur in the first week of the month and the 27th, when others may not see you in the best of lighting!

Venus transits your eleventh house from the 9th, and a friendly, equality-minded, although somewhat detached energy surrounds your love life. Earnings from a business get a pleasant boost as well. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are likely to enjoy a strong feeling of happiness and solidarity in friendship, or with groups of like-minded individuals. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to occur during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.

Mercury transits your ninth house all month. Cross-cultural exchanges, a visit or significant communication from someone far away, and/or a long journey broaden your thinking. Your thoughts are lifted above the usual daily concerns and immediate business into thoughts and visions about future, larger goals, and the purpose and meaning of your activities. You are putting everything into a larger context. Discussions and/or reading on issues of faith and of the spirit are likely to be a part of this. Do be more cautious with your communications while Mercury is retrograde until the 7th, however. Be as clear as you can to avoid misunderstandings.

Mars transits your intimacy sector until the 24th, and your personal, intimate life speeds up. You experience every situation intensely and deeply during this cycle, even though your outward actions do not necessarily reveal this fact. You could find yourself attracted to mysterious or even dangerous situations. Sometimes this transit correlates with disputes over money. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support. Circumstances in life are likely to occur that require you to take the lead or to apply personal action in connection with joint finances.

Mars activates and energizes your ninth house from the 24th. During this period, you are especially enthusiastic and more bold than usual. Some restlessness and hunger for adventure is experienced now. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities, and you may find that you have a lot of energy for higher studies, travel, or simply new subjects. Negative potentials include being excessively opinionated or getting easily fired up over differences in points of view, or legal fights.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 9-17, when natural charm is the way to go; and the 24-31, when energy is with you and you can further your personal interests with few interruptions.

Highlights:

March 1-3 Operative energies include Mercury sextile Pluto, Venus sextile Chiron, Mars semi-square Jupiter. New information begins to come to light, and we have the power to heal our social relationships. Because this period occurs just before a lunar eclipse, hold off on finalizing any deals or plans if you can, however. But do pay attention to the information that surfaces now. For you, this is a strong period for personal influence and romantic expression.

March 3 Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo in your solar third house. Flaws in an important system in your life come to light. The effects of this eclipse last for six months. 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.

March 4-5 The Sun conjuncts Uranus in your solar ninth house. An exciting conversation or contact with someone from a different background than yourself could occur now. Your mind is stimulated into new directions--and perhaps even a new mindset. Changes might occur in your travel plans or educational agenda.

March 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.

March 8-9 Operative energies include Venus trine Jupiter and Saturn, Venus sextile Neptune, and Sun square Jupiter. This is an especially strong influence for creative output and is also excellent for cementing relationships. Because the grand trine affects your relationship sectors, it's strong for strengthening ties to partners, acquaintances, and friends. It's also an excellent period for showing your reliability to a romantic partner.

March 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.

March 15-16 Operative energies include Mars conjunct Chiron, Mercury sextile Venus, and Venus trine Pluto. Gaining new perspectives on romantic and sexual relationships, or on creative projects, occurs now. We seek out others, but won't settle for superficial connections. This can be a time of epiphanies and release of suppressed energies. For you, your powers of attraction increase. Epiphanies regarding your friendships or associations are also likely now. This is a very strong period for attracting or enhancing love. Important contracts and new beginnings, however, are best avoided until after the Solar Eclipse on the 18th.

March 18-19 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 18 New Moon Solar Eclipse in late Pisces in your solar tenth house affects you for the next six months. A time to focus on goals involving compassion, letting go of the past, and acceptance. Nagging problems from the past six months need to be dealt with and put behind you. 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.

March 22-25 A mixed bag of energies operant now brings challenges and possible enlightenment. Mars in your ninth house opposes Saturn, sextiles Jupiter, and conjuncts Neptune. You may have to deal with challenges in your relationships with acquaintances, in-laws, neighbors, or fellow students now. This can also play out via transportation problems or feeling overburdened with things to do. A positive, growth-oriented outcome is favored, however, if you draw upon your powers of negotiation and compromise, or through a close partner.

March 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.

March 27-28 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.

March 28-29 Venus forms tense angles to Chiron and Pluto. This is a less than ideal period for financial transactions and for social relationships. Tensions derived from lack of trust are likely now. Issues from the past might resurface now, likely revolving around trust and integrity. Romantic challenges or tension with children are also possible now.

 

Gemini (Born June 12 to 21)
AND Gemini Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Gemini:

February 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

February

Overview. Until the 9th, the Sun continues to illuminate your intimacy sector--a transit that began in January. This sector rules all power-related issues and matters that brew under the surface of things. Sometimes this spotlight brings a tiny crisis or intense feelings. Intimacy matters come into strong focus as well. Taxes, shared resources, and other money matters may also feature strongly.

From the 9th, the Sun spotlights your adventure sector. Your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now. A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don't have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning, will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with everyday affairs and important details.

Starting on a brand new course of action in your career path is favored in the first week of the month. A new discovery or a chance meeting with an influential person may pave the way to better working conditions. There could be some disappointing news regarding finances mid-month, which may leave you feeling tense. The second half of February could be riddled with minor challenges--projects are put on hold, and you might be feeling misunderstood. Problems encountered now will be ironed out in March, so try not to sweat the small stuff.

This month, Mercury retrogrades from the 13th forward (until March 7th). Mercury retrograde cycles are periods in which communications and transportation matters don't go as smoothly as usual. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your personal presentation or image to others and communications with family because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Occurring in your solar ninth house this time, extra care should be exercised regarding travel or education plans. Delays are very possible. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with professors, lawyers, and family members, or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms some pleasing connections with Chiron, Pluto, and Uranus this month on the 1-3 and 8-11. These represent opportunity periods for you. The 1st is a period in which your natural confidence shines through--you are believed, understood, appreciated, and trusted. On the 8-11, something unexpected comes your way--a pleasant surprise, for example. You may be the one who acts out of character and surprises others in your life. The results will be fabulous. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 17-18. These issues may revolve around joint finances, intimacy, and differences in opinion--matters that certainly grab much of your attention in February. This is a period when impulsiveness can have its consequences.

Opportunity periods for personal finances occur on the 19-20. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 10, 13-15, and 25-28. This could be a somewhat challenging month for personal finances.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 1, 7th especially, and 12-13. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. The 7th is particularly auspicious, and likely involves unexpected events and pleasant surprises. Issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 9, 14, 18-20, and 24-25. This would be a less than ideal period to go on a first date, for example. For more serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 2-4 and 17th. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 8-9 and 28th.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 1st and 16-17. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 2nd and 19-20, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation run particularly well on the 7-8. Challenges with these matters are most likely on the 25th and 27-28.

Until the 13th, Venus moves through your solar ninth house. A taste for the exotic takes hold during this cycle. Routine affairs simply don't seem to satisfy. You receive pleasure from anything that expands your horizons, both physically and mentally. Foreign people and places may particularly appeal now. You tend to be expansive and generous when it comes to love. A love interest who attracts you during this cycle may be somebody who you previously wouldn't consider attractive, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. You have a taste for the exotic and the spirit to match. Public relations work, promotion, and other such endeavors are favored now. It is more about how you express yourself than the specifics of what you are saying that helps sway others to your position. There could be especial rapport with foreigners and with women if you are traveling during this period. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. If a romance were to begin now, it is more likely to be with someone of a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. You have a taste for the exotic now that can show up in many areas of your life--who you are attracted to, what you buy, the kind of art or entertainment you enjoy, and so forth.

From the 13th, Venus transits your solar tenth house. During this cycle, 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. 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 come across as especially competent.

Mercury moves through your solar ninth house all month. Not content to focus on mundane, practical affairs just now, your mind is on bigger visions, thoughts, and ideals. You are open to expanding your knowledge base during this cycle, and communications from or with someone far away may be part of the picture. You are putting everything into perspective now, rather than compartmentalizing. Instead of simply shooting the breeze, you are more inclined to discuss broader philosophies now. Your inclination during this cycle is to think about the "big picture" rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life. Missing appointments and other forms of forgetfulness could be part of the picture now. Do be more cautious with your communications while Mercury is retrograde from the 13th through to March 7th, however. Be as clear as you can to avoid misunderstandings.

Mars continues to activate your solar seventh house until the 12th. You are likely to exert your energy and initiative in active cooperation 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. This cycle tests your ability to resolve interpersonal conflicts. Partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or adversaries may be challenging. Use this energy to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone's help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Relationships are vivacious and dynamic during this period. When a difference arises, you are quick to settle it, and have little patience for sweeping matters under the rug. Your close personal relationships are lively during this cycle--full of conflicts and resolutions or reconciliations.

Mars energizes your solar eighth house from the 12th and into March, and your personal, intimate life speeds up. You experience every situation intensely and deeply during this cycle, even though your outward actions do not necessarily reveal this fact. You could find yourself attracted to mysterious or even dangerous situations. Sometimes this transit correlates with disputes over money. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support. Circumstances in life are likely to occur that require you to take the lead or to apply personal action in connection with joint finances.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 9-19, when life's circumstances tend to flow smoothly.

Highlights:

January 31-February 1 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 2 Full Moon in Leo in your solar second house. Intimacy, issues of power and control, or joint finances may have been a focus for the last two weeks. Now it's time to recognize what makes you comfortable. This Full Moon is about balancing the give and take of intimacy--the giving and receiving of pleasure. Sharing issues come into focus, as do issues of power--what's yours and what's mine. Your comfort zones matter, and now is the time to take care of your own needs without eclipsing the needs of others.

February 3-4 The Sun sextiles Jupiter and Mars sextiles Uranus. This is a strong period for learning, growth, advancement, and adventurous activities. It's favorable for marketing, publishing, and advertising, as well as any self-promotion activities. We may be especially sociable, tolerant, and generous. Confidence comes from a stronger sense of who we are and the principles we represent, as well as an ability to take healthy and reasonable risks.

February 7-8 The Sun conjuncts Neptune and Venus conjuncts Uranus. This is a "make a wish" day. Spiritual goals come into focus. As well, bringing a spirit of friendship and freedom into close personal relationships is featured. Surprising career developments can occur for you now. A confusing communication could also arrive.

February 8-9 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.

February 10 The Sun in your ninth house opposes Saturn in your third house. Restrictions and pressures may be felt now revolving around communications and errands. Feeling bogged down with daily activities that prevent you from enjoying broader pleasures may be the theme. Avoid new initiatives now if you can.

February 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.

February 18 New Moon in late Aquarius in your solar ninth house affects you until the next New Moon. A time to focus on goals involving friendships, long-term happiness, dreams, and wishes. The ninth house rules our spirit to grow, explore, and expand beyond the "regular" experiences in our lives. The New Moon here may bring some restlessness and dissatisfaction with regular routines. Make an effort to initiate new projects or activities that expand your mind, feed your spirit for adventure, and stretch your imagination. You may feel renewed by a new perspective on your life, something philosophical or spiritual that you read or learn, or an adventure that takes you away from the mundane routines in your life.

February 19-20 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.

February 24-25 Tense angles operant now include Mars-Uranus, Venus-Neptune, and Venus-Saturn. Relations are likely to be tense. Disillusionments with finances as well as personal relationships are possible. Reckless behavior has consequences. For you, romantic relationships and friendships may be a bit strained. Disappointments that crop up now are temporary.

February 25-26 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.

February 27-28 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.

Gemini (Born June 12 to 21)
AND Gemini Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Gemini:

January 2007: Gemini Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
 

January

Overview. Until the 10th, the Sun highlights your solar seventh house. At this time of year, you have a greater need than usual to be with a partner. Bouncing ideas off someone helps you to better understand yourself. A partner provides a mirror for your own self-discovery. Now is the time to realize your own potential through a significant other. During this cycle, you focus on balancing your personal interests and objectives with your social life, or with those of a partner. The emphasis is on "us" rather than "me". You need the energies, companionship, and support of other people, and they may also seek out your support and companionship. It's important to include others rather than to go solo for the time being. However, bending too much to the will of another is not advised either. Social interactions of a personal, one-on-one kind are emphasized. Circumstances are such that your diplomacy skills are required. Your popularity is increasing, and is reinforced by your own ability to cooperate and harmonize. Your ego and pride are tied up in how you relate to others now. This may be an especially busy time for people who consult or work with clients one-on-one. 

From the 10th, the Sun puts a spotlight on your solar eighth house. With the Sun energizing your sector of  transformation, change, sexuality, personal growth, regeneration, others' money and resources, addictions, and taxes, this is not the most gregarious of months for you. You take a step back, focus on intimacy with a partner, or simply retreat a little from the hectic pace of life. This is an excellent time to create a budget or financial plan, or to rid yourself of bad habits that undermine your sense of personal power and self-mastery. All that is deeply personal comes into focus now. Intimate matters are especially important to you during this cycle. Just how well you are handling your life comes up for inspection. Your self-mastery skills and psychological predisposition matter to you more than usual. This is the time of year when you are most desirous of change on a deep level. Clearing out psychic "junk" or ridding yourself of bad habits may be part of the picture now. You are more willing than usual to explore life's secrets. This cycle brings greater in-depth understanding and an inclination to delve beneath the surface of matters to get to the bottom of them. Research uncovers new material that allows you to develop a better overall picture of the year's events. This is an especially introspective cycle during which you have the chance to truly uncover your personal strengths and talents. On a more practical level, you may be dealing with joint finances and shared resources now more than usual.

New Year�s resolutions to kick a bad habit make a lot of sense this month (particularly after the New Moon on the 18th), when your mind is focused on self-improvement and self-mastery skills. A financial revelation comes up around the 3rd, and a strengthening of your financial position is likely on the 7th. Don�t pass up an opportunity to increase your income around the 20th. Partnership matters continue to figure prominently. Around the 22nd, an unexpected partnership opportunity could arise, but avoid jumping to impulsive conclusions about any dealing with a partner now, business or personal.

This month, the first of three Jupiter-Uranus squares occurs, placing some tension between your sixth and ninth houses, from now through October. Although your overall state of mind is stable and productive, some restlessness is likely. Avoid scattering your energies. Settling on one particular preoccupation is something that is hard for you to do in general. Avoid the tendency to search for one thing that is ultimately fulfilling, as it is unlikely to completely satisfy you. There may be a challenge between performing mundane tasks and your quest for something higher, something more adventurous. If you are able to focus, the chances of material success are much greater.  Try not to instigate change just for the sake of change, and avoid rash behavior. On the other hand, if you look for opportunities, you have more confidence and faith now to do something totally different, and inspiration may be found now. But do avoid blowing off responsibilities while you pursue your new vision.

This month, the Sun, Venus, and Mercury align with Chiron in your eighth house. You may enjoy key opportunity periods that allow you to get a handle on your shared resources, and do wonders for your intimate relationships, particularly if they are in need of some healing. The key now is confidence and not overstating yourself. A connection may be made to a person on a deeply intimate level.

Your ruler, Mercury, forms strong connections on the 3-8, 16-22, 26, and 31, and these represent opportunity periods for you in January. The 20-22 is a particularly auspicious period for you when your personal magnetism and inner strength shines. You more easily influence others to accept your plans or ideas now. Social and romantic activities that give you a sense of emotional well-being figure now. It's an excellent time to revitalize important ties with others. You might have a healing effect on others or vice versa. On the 26th, synchronicities may appear in your life that further your own goals. You do need to watch for over-idealizing people or situations now, however. On the 31, you have opportunities to further your interests and gain some power or influence in a pleasing manner. It's also a strong period for work and health-related matters and partnerships. Red flag periods--times when you are not received as well as you would like, or are prone to impulsive, hasty, or ill-timed behavior--occur on the 2, 11-13, and 28. Power issues or financial support matters could be part of the picture on the 2nd; some feelings of discouragement or let down could figure on the 11-13; and the same goes for the 28th, when you could be feeling left out or overburdened (these are temporary).

Better periods for personal finances occur on the 7-9 and 20th. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 2, 11, 13-14, 22, and 26-28.

As far as romantic and creative matters go, opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 4-6, 10-12, 18-19, 25-26, and 29-31. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. The 10-12 is particularly auspicious. Romance with or through a foreigner is possible. Issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 1, 13-14, and 22. These would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. For more serious partnerships, long-term relationships tend to thrive on the 1, 4-6, and 11. Tensions in close partnerships are more likely on the 12 and 15-17.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 7-9. 18-20, 25-26, and 31. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 22 and 27, when you should probably avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation run best on the 1st, and especially the 18-19 and 26th. Challenges in these matters are most likely on the 21-22.

Venus transits the most intense and intimate sector of your chart until the 20th. During this period, you carry yourself with a more sensual quality. It's a strong period for taking stock of your creative forces. Discover new ways to enhance and increase investment programs or add to your savings account. A female may be a source of financial gain or drain in connection with mutual funds. A financial boost is possible, or you may gain financially through your partner. A deep and intimate connection made now could be revitalizing and even healing. You are more inclined to want to smooth over differences in a partnership concerning the sharing of power, intimacy matters, finances, and other emotionally-charged topics. Intimate relationships are intensified now. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Venus moves through your solar ninth house from the 20th. A taste for the exotic takes hold during this cycle. Routine affairs simply don't seem to satisfy. You receive pleasure from anything that expands your horizons, both physically and mentally. Foreign people and places may particularly appeal now. You tend to be expansive and generous when it comes to love. A love interest who attracts you during this cycle may be somebody who you previously wouldn't consider attractive, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. You have a taste for the exotic and the spirit to match. Public relations work, promotion, and other such endeavors are favored now. It is more about how you express yourself than the specifics of what you are saying that helps sway others to your position. There could be especial rapport with foreigners and with women if you are traveling during this period. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. If a romance were to begin now, it is more likely to be with someone of a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. You have a taste for the exotic now that can show up in many areas of your life--who you are attracted to, what you buy, the kind of art or entertainment you enjoy, and so forth.

Mercury moves through your solar eighth house from the 9-27. You are more intuitive now than usual, picking up all of the hidden cues from people around you and reading between the lines. This is an excellent cycle in which to do some financial planning and strategizing. Research is also highly favored. It's also easier for you to approach sensitive, intimate, and personal matters with rationality and logic. As such, this is a great time to open up conversations about topics that normally might cause waves, such as those revolving around the sharing of power, intimacy, and finances.

Mars activates your solar seventh house from the 3rd. Partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or adversaries may be challenging. Use this energy to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone's help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Relationships are vivacious and dynamic during this period. When a difference arises, you are quick to settle it, and have little patience for sweeping matters under the rug. Your close personal relationships are lively during this cycle--full of conflicts and resolutions or reconciliations.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 20-28, a period that is especially strong for personal charm and attracting pleasant circumstances into your life; and the 27-31, when your ideas and opinions are received particularly well.

Highlights:

January 1-2 Jupiter sextiles Chiron, the Sun sextiles Uranus, and Mars sextiles Neptune. This is a creative period for all--one in which we can find new insights into old problems. Willingness to embrace change is the key to success now. For you, a boost to your close partnerships is probable now. This is also a good time for a pleasantly surprising communication.

January 2-3 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.

January 3 Full Moon in Cancer in your solar first house. Some sort of fulfillment, culmination, or revelation regarding your desires or new initiatives at the last New Moon on December 20th occurs now. "Hey, what about me?" is the feeling of a Full Moon in the first house. You're looking for a bit of attention right now as you feel that life has been too "other-oriented" recently. Try to avoid infantile outbursts. Instead, work on your self-assertiveness. You do count, and there are ways to assert your own needs without stepping on others' toes. Finding a balance between autonomy and dependence is what this Full Moon is about for you. Your emotions are on your sleeve right now. It is a good time to put your needs first, but doing so with respect for others will take you further. Whether you can succeed as a leader is "tested" right now.

January 4-5 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 6-8 The Sun and Mercury align and Mars trines Saturn. These planetary influences suggest rational, logical, and productive energy. We are actively communicating, and our work takes on definite shape. This is a good time to temper our energy and to exercise better judgment. Traditional methods work, and thoroughness brings rewards. For you, an intimate conversation makes for a more secure and grounded feeling. This is an excellent period in which to discuss plans for the future, particularly with an intimate partner. You are able to present yourself with a strong air of responsibility and authority. You are noticed and acknowledged.

January 10-12 Venus joins with Chiron and sextiles Jupiter. This is a healing and friendly energy--an excellent time to socialize, promote cooperation, spend time with romantic partners, and to initiate a new relationship or friendship. It's also very strong for financial matters. For you, this is a strong opportunity period for partnerships of all kinds. A meeting of minds can occur now, and can be especially healing and growth-oriented. A power day for love matters as well as negotiations.

January 11-12 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.

January 13-14 Mars joins with Pluto and Venus semi-squares both planets; Mercury semi-squares Uranus. Keywords for this period include intense, passionate, rebellious, and obsessive! Tense interplays between lovers are quite likely now, and the inclination to rebel against routine or expectations is strong. Harness the energy of Mars-Pluto by pouring your energy into a pet project. Sexual relations now can be very intense. Competitive energy is powerful. With your ruler in tense angle to Uranus, an unexpected circumstance can figure now. Others may not be appreciating your behavior, or you could feel misunderstood. A partnership matter grabs your attention.

January 16-17 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 18 New Moon in late Capricorn in your solar eighth house affects you until the next New Moon. A time to focus on long-term goals and projects and to formulate career and business plans. This is a time of empowerment. It is a good time to focus on issues of intimacy as well as developing self-mastery skills. You may experience increased awareness of others—what makes them tick—as well as your own internal motivations during this period. It is a time when intimacy and deep levels of sharing are heightened. It is also a favorable time to start a financial plan, savings plan, take out a loan or consolidate, and do work in accounting.

January 18-20 Venus joins with Neptune and Mercury conjoins Chiron. This can be a very romantic time, although the tendency can be towards seeing what we want to see rather than what is, so romantic mirages are possible now. Kind, healing words and communications are also featured now. A good time to discover new or alternative health procedures and regimes. Soft, pleasant energy dominates. For you, this influence can be a romantic one, and possibly with someone long-distance or from a different cultural background that you. An important conversation or communication with an intimate partner or family member can occur now. Words can heal--use them to mend fences or simply to reassure. You are appreciated for what makes you unique right now. Recognition comes naturally.

January 22-23 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 25-26 Venus sextiles Pluto and Mercury aligns with Neptune. An excellent period for romantic and artistic expression. However, don't expect communications to be right-brain, logical, or clear! It's best to delay important decisions. A good period for romance and dreamy conversations. For you, a strong connection can be made from a distant place, and professional matters are positive. You might form a creative or romantic association through business.

January 27-28 Mercury and Mars form challenging angles to Saturn. This can be a tense period in which hitting brick walls is likely. Delay important discussions and avoid beginning new projects, which could be riddled with frustrations and complications down the road.

January 29-30 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.

January 30-31 The Sun joins Chiron and Mercury sextiles Pluto. An excellent period for coming up with innovative new techniques, socializing, and gaining perspective on our long-term goals. It's easy to resolve problems, particularly old, nagging ones, and to cooperate with others in a balanced manner.

January 31-February 1 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.
