Virgo (Born August 23 to September 2) AND Virgo Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Virgo:

July 2009 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

July

Overview.

Until the 22, 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, light-hearted, 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 12, some down time is in order. Before that, enjoy your lively calendar!

From the 22, 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.

Finding a better position for yourself professionally speaking will be easier than usual this month, dear Virgo. Others are recognizing your charm and determination, and your ability to network and communicate with ease in July only sweetens the pot. Your social agenda is busy as well, as you find that you’re not only in demand on the job, you’re also generating great interest amongst friends. Your romantic life is likely to be emotional and dramatic from the 5-8, and the Solar Eclipse on the 21st marks a new beginning with friends and group associations.

Two eclipses occur this month. One is a Lunar Eclipse on the 7th at 15 degrees Capricorn. The other is a total Solar Eclipse on the 21st at 29 degrees of Cancer. 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 June 30-July 7 and then July 14th-21st.

The Lunar Eclipse on the 7th stimulates your solar fifth house. Surprises coming from a romantic partner or child may be part of the picture. Something that has been brewing or "in hiding" comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Your house of creativity, romance, pleasure, and children is involved. This could manifest, for example, as a romantic proclamation from a lover, a creative project bearing fruit, a child revealing something significant to you, and other such possibilities.

The Solar Eclipse on the 21st marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar eleventh house, suggesting that a new approach to friendships or new friendships altogether, a new path towards happiness and fulfillment, new associations or affiliations, or plenty of social activity are in store for you. You may see the light in a friendship, realizing its importance in general, as well as the importance of acceptance and camaraderie. Circumstances may be such that you bring a new spirit of friendship into a romance or other connection in the next months. This can be invigorating.

Venus warms your solar tenth house from the 5. 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 transits your solar eleventh from the 3-17. 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 solar twelfth house from the 17, and 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 continues to energize your solar ninth until the 12, making this a fabulous time for promoting your ideas and beliefs, although coming on too strong could work against you. If you can't travel, you'll feel like doing so, or at least travel in your mind, simply because you have a great urge to expand your horizons in some manner. Energies thrown toward recreation, travel, or just cooking up great new ideas are well spent and serve to refresh and renew your vitality. Creative projects can flourish with enlarged focus and redoubled efforts that somehow don't tire you out. Time flies when you're having fun and leaves you with more vigor than when you began. Big, ambitious, adventurous ideas can come to you in a rush during this cycle, propelled by the urge to do something you've never done before.

Mars energizes your tenth house from the 12, bringing dynamic energy to all career, professional, and public matters. You could 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:

July 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.

July 7 A Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurs today in Capricorn 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.

July 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.

July 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.

July 21 New Moon Solar Eclipse in Cancer in your solar eleventh house affects you for the next 3-6 months. 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.

July 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.

July 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.

Virgo (Born August 23 to September 2) AND Virgo Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Virgo:

June 2009 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

June

Overview.

Until the 21, the Sun continues to spotlight 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.

The Sun illuminates your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true from the 21. It's a sociable sector of your chart, and that's exactly how you are feeling--happy, light-hearted, 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.

Even though you have been taking life rather seriously recently, dear Virgo, you’re bound to surprise a few people in June with a more playful and spirited attitude. While professional matters remain a strong focus, you’re very willing to put your business manner aside outside of the office. Your joie de vivre attracts positive attention this month. With the desire for adventure in your heart, you might make more exotic travel plans that you normally would. Your need for the support and company of friends becomes apparent in the last week of June.

From the 6, Venus transits 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.

Mercury continues to work its way through your ninth house until the 14, this time in direct motion so that its energy is more straightforward. Transits of Mercury point to current areas of interests and where our thoughts are for the time being. You take more interest in the bigger picture rather than details during this period. Educational or philosophical subjects could interest now. Decisions made now are more inclined to take into consideration morals and ethics--not only practical concerns.

Mercury transits your solar tenth house from the 14. 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 energizes and activates 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:

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

June 7 A Full Moon occurs today in Sagittarius in your solar fourth house. 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.

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

June 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.

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

June 22 New Moon in Cancer in your solar eleventh house affects you now and until the next New Moon on July 21. 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.

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

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

Virgo (Born August 23 to September 2) AND Virgo Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Virgo:

May 2009 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

May

Overview.

Until the 20, the Sun illuminates your solar ninth house. This transit that started in the last week of September 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 20, the Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector. 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.

Financial creativity runs high this month, dear Virgo. You’re in a position to come up with unique and powerful ways to increase your income. Career matters might challenge you with occasional complications and the need to sacrifice more of your time. Reworking of projects that you previously thought were complete may be in order. However, you’re entering a period in which attracting what you want on the job front is easy. Increased intimacy with a partner is likely this month. While acquaintances could find you aloof or distant, charisma in love matters runs high.

Mercury is retrograde from May 7-30. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your own body language and personal manner (you may feel that others misunderstand you), as well as communications involving the career or public, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. You are ruled by Mercury, so the likelihood of being misunderstood, in general, is high. Put off career decisions as well, as career matters are Gemini-ruled for you. 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. You may be re-thinking things regarding your life path, but it's best to think rather than act for now, as your judgment may be compromised. 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.

Jupiter conjuncts Neptune in your sixth house three times this year, beginning this month--May 27, July 10, and December 21. A spirit of altruism and generosity, making connections with others from a different background, widening your mind through unusual or different experiences, expanded faith, and a feeling that anything is possible if you set your sights high enough are all themes. With the ruler of your fourth house and the ruler of your seventh house aligned, this year your sense of security is strongly reinforced by close partnerships. You may find that you are relied upon for emotional support from a partner. Existing partnerships may be especially nurturing, quiet, and emotional this year. In 2009, many Virgos will experience increased faith in their jobs and work routines. Some will land their dream jobs, or find themselves working from home and/or with a partner.

Venus journeys through your intimacy sector all month. During this cycle, the areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through harmonious sexual relationships, friendships, and business interests. You attract the opposite sex like bees to honey now, and you favor a partner who is intelligent, with a somewhat mysterious flair about them. A financial boost is likely, or you may gain financially through your partner. Your social circle may include people who are interested in mysteries or those who are engaged in some form of psychological work. A deep personal connection and intimate exchange can be healing, replenishing, and soothing to your soul. This is a good time to work on resolving grievances, differences in values, or money problems in a close relationship. There are also apt to be favorable developments regarding shared assets, jointly owned property, borrowing money, or repaying loans to the satisfaction of all concerned. You are likely to get both the financial backing and the emotional support you need to succeed. On a more personal level, intimate relationships are intensified. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Mars transits your intimacy sector this month. 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.

Highlights:

May 3-4 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 5-6 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 6-8 Mercury is stationary retrograde now, and will remain retrograde until May 30th--a cycle during which 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.

May 8 A Full Moon occurs today in Scorpio 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.

May 12-13 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 17-18 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 24 New Moon in Gemini in your solar tenth house affects you now and until the next New Moon on June 22. 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.

May 24-25 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 29-31 Mercury stations and turns direct on May 30th. Holding off on important discussions, interviews, or contracts is probably wise right now, as thinking is foggy and misunderstandings are likely. As Mercury moves forward and regains speed over the next couple of weeks, we can more easily get new projects off the ground.

May 30-31 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.

Virgo (Born September 3 to 12) AND Virgo Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Virgo:

July 2009 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

July

Overview.

The Sun illuminates your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true this month. 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.

Venus continues to move through your adventure sector until the 14th. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. 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. 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.

Venus warms your solar tenth house from the 14. 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.

Until the 8, Mercury is in your solar tenth house, 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. Financial security, professional prestige, and social status are the dominant mental issues for the time being. Career planning strategies or thinking of concrete ways to turn your dreams into realities as well as sharing your thoughts on these matters with a few significant others should be very fruitful now. It is a good time to communicate with someone in a position to help you achieve your aspirations.

Mercury transits your solar eleventh from the 8-22. 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 solar twelfth house from the 22, and 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 continues to energize your solar ninth until the 26, making this a fabulous time for promoting your ideas and beliefs, although coming on too strong could work against you. If you can't travel, you'll feel like doing so, or at least travel in your mind, simply because you have a great urge to expand your horizons in some manner. Energies thrown toward recreation, travel, or just cooking up great new ideas are well spent and serve to refresh and renew your vitality. Creative projects can flourish with enlarged focus and redoubled efforts that somehow don't tire you out. Time flies when you're having fun and leaves you with more vigor than when you began. Big, ambitious, adventurous ideas can come to you in a rush during this cycle, propelled by the urge to do something you've never done before.

Mars energizes your tenth house from the 26, bringing dynamic energy to all career, professional, and public matters. You could 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:

July 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.

July 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.

July 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.

July 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.

July 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.

Virgo (Born September 3 to 12) AND Virgo Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Virgo:

June 2009 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

June

Overview.

This month, the Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector. 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.

Venus continues her journey through your intimacy sector until the 14. Intimate connections can be especially rich and meaningful during this cycle. Your magnetism revolves around mysterious fascination rather than outgoing charm. Intensity appeals in your relationships. This can also be a time in which you discover untapped resources or talents. It’s a good time to work out money problems or other issues of sharing with a partner. You may get the backing you need now--financial or emotional.

From the 14, Venus transits 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.

Mercury continues to work its way through your ninth house until the 23, this time in direct motion so that its energy is more straightforward. Transits of Mercury point to current areas of interests and where our thoughts are for the time being. You take more interest in the bigger picture rather than details during this period. Educational or philosophical subjects could interest now. Decisions made now are more inclined to take into consideration morals and ethics--not only practical concerns.

Mercury transits your solar tenth house from the 22. 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 continues to energize your intimacy sector until the 14, 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 energizes and activates your solar ninth house from the 14. 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:

June 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.

June 22 New Moon in Cancer in your solar tenth house affects you now and until the next New Moon on July 21. 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.

June 27-28 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.

Virgo (Born September 3 to 12) AND Virgo Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Virgo:

May 2009 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

May

Overview.

This month, with the Sun spotlighting your solar ninth house, 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.

Mercury is retrograde from May 7-30. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your own body language and personal manner (you may feel that others misunderstand you), as well as communications involving the career or public, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. You are ruled by Mercury, so the likelihood of being misunderstood, in general, is high. Put off career decisions as well, as career matters are Gemini-ruled for you. Occurring in your solar ninth house this time, extra care should be used regarding travel or education plans. Delays are very possible. Expressing your opinions now might come across in entirely the wrong way. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with professors and lawyers as well; or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.

Venus journeys through your intimacy sector from the 14. During this cycle, the areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through harmonious sexual relationships, friendships, and business interests. You attract the opposite sex like bees to honey now, and you favor a partner who is intelligent, with a somewhat mysterious flair about them. A financial boost is likely, or you may gain financially through your partner. Your social circle may include people who are interested in mysteries or those who are engaged in some form of psychological work. A deep personal connection and intimate exchange can be healing, replenishing, and soothing to your soul. This is a good time to work on resolving grievances, differences in values, or money problems in a close relationship. There are also apt to be favorable developments regarding shared assets, jointly owned property, borrowing money, or repaying loans to the satisfaction of all concerned. You are likely to get both the financial backing and the emotional support you need to succeed. On a more personal level, intimate relationships are intensified. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Mars transits your intimacy sector from the 5. 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.

Highlights:

May 4-5 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It's all about you now, so it's time to put your best 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 6-7 Monthly money and income peak. You're looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don't have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now—the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

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

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

May 24 New Moon in Gemini in your solar ninth house affects you now and until the next New Moon on June 22. 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.

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

May 31-June 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.

Virgo (Born September 13 to 23) AND Virgo Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Virgo:

July 2009 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

July

Overview.

Until the 12th, the Sun continues to spotlight 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.

The Sun illuminates your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true from the 12. 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.

Venus continues to move through your adventure sector until the 23. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. 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.

June 2009 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

June

Overview.

Until the 10, the Sun illuminates your solar ninth house. This transit that started in the last week of September 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.

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 15-16 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 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.

June 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.

Virgo (Born September 13 to 23) AND Virgo Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Virgo:

May 2009 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

May

Overview.

Until the 10, the Sun continues to spotlight your intimacy sector. With the considerable energy of the Sun in your solar eighth house, much of your energy will be applied to deeply personal and transformative matters. The use of power is highlighted in some way during this cycle. Will-power, strategy, and financial ability are accentuated now. Something may be lost, so that something else is gained. This can be a time for getting down to business and of stripping away and discarding nonessentials. You can separate the wheat from the chaff, concentrating on important things. The Sun is energizing and spotlighting all that comes under the reign of the eighth house: transformation, change, sexuality, personal growth, regeneration, others' money and resources, addictions, and taxes. As a result, 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.

From the 10, with the Sun spotlighting your solar ninth house, 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.

Mercury is retrograde from May 7-30. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your own body language and personal manner (you may feel that others misunderstand you), as well as communications involving the career or public, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. You are ruled by Mercury, so the likelihood of being misunderstood, in general, is high. Put off career decisions as well, as career matters are Gemini-ruled for you. Occurring in your solar ninth house this time, extra care should be used regarding travel or education plans. Delays are very possible. Expressing your opinions now might come across in entirely the wrong way. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with professors and lawyers as well; or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.

Venus continues her trek through your partnership sector until the 26. To a very marked degree, your general well-being and emotional health depend on sound and meaningful relationships--both social and romantic during this cycle. Financial prosperity or social success may come through your marriage partner at this time. Special attention to and from a partner is in focus, and flattery will get you everywhere if you use it wisely. Set aside some private time when no one else can get in the way of the feelings you want to share. Give to a partner exactly what you would like to receive just now. It's not about you right now--it's about someone else close, and the sweeter your attentions, the more delicious your rewards will be! Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. You have a greater need than usual for contact and exchange with an intimate partner. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationship. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections.

Venus journeys through your intimacy sector from the 26. During this cycle, the areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through harmonious sexual relationships, friendships, and business interests. You attract the opposite sex like bees to honey now, and you favor a partner who is intelligent, with a somewhat mysterious flair about them. A financial boost is likely, or you may gain financially through your partner. Your social circle may include people who are interested in mysteries or those who are engaged in some form of psychological work. A deep personal connection and intimate exchange can be healing, replenishing, and soothing to your soul. This is a good time to work on resolving grievances, differences in values, or money problems in a close relationship. There are also apt to be favorable developments regarding shared assets, jointly owned property, borrowing money, or repaying loans to the satisfaction of all concerned. You are likely to get both the financial backing and the emotional support you need to succeed. On a more personal level, intimate relationships are intensified. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Mars continues to move through your partnership sector until the 18, although the drama of this position is definitely easing, as Mars is now past an opposition to your Sun. With Mars in the seventh house, you are likely to exert your energy and initiative in active co-operation with others as associates or in partnerships of some kind. You can be aggressive and forceful in intimate relationships, or your partner may be displaying these traits. It is important to be restrained in all dealings with associates, business partners, and intimate partners. If you are too aggressive or dominant now, there is danger of trouble and loss through public opposition, unpopularity, damaged relationships, or even litigation in rare cases. This cycle tests your ability to resolve interpersonal conflicts. Remember that anger is often a mask for hurt feelings. There's bound to be a lot of friction or push and pull as you strive to balance your style and agenda with another's.

Mars transits your intimacy sector from the 18. 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.

Highlights:

May 7-8 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 14-15 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 19-20 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.
