For All Signs
Mars, the ancient god of war, enters the sign of Pisces this week for an unusually long sojourn. Normally Mars remains in one sign for seven weeks, but it will remain in the sign of the Fish until mid-December because it makes a retrograde loop during August and September. Peaceful, self-effacing Pisces is a very uncomfortable place for the sword-flashing warrior. Given the state of the world, there may be a cessation of open conflict, which bears a deep underlying restlessness.
Aries
See the lead paragraph. Mars is your ruling planet and its position is particularly important to you. Over the next six months, life will work more smoothly if you let yourself be led by the “signs,” circumstances, and people around you.
Taurus
A relationship or friendship that began with gusto in March arrives at a point of evaluation. The question of commitment may always be an issue in this situation. The Bulls are careful about commitment because they mean it. Some other signs are not so persevering.
Gemini
Romance and relationships are very much on your mind this week. A new start of late March may come to a surprising turn in the road. At this point you probably know whether you want to become more involved or walk away. A shift in career focus is also at issue now.
Cancer
This continues to be a period in which you should give yourself every opportunity to be out and about in the social world. New people who come into your life at this time may become teachers or guides on your next path. New education or skills will add to your journey.
Leo
If you are considering a proposal or an idea that sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Don’t invest what you cannot afford to lose and don’t promise what you may not be able to deliver. Do pursue inspiration and spiritual guidance at this time.
Virgo
You made a change in work or daily routines in early March that now must be evaluated and tweaked. There is also a decision pending concerning your partner(s) or significant other that may also affect your career path. Things happen fast and the sawdust is flying.
Libra
Make sure you back up important data. Aspects suggest problems with your computer or other high tech equipment. A creative idea concerning work or exercise routine that began in late March is now up for reevaluation and tweaking.
Scorpio
Mars is your ruling planet — see the lead paragraph. Your attention shifts to matters concerning children, play, romance and personal creativity for the next six months. If pregnancy is a possibility, make your choice now about whether or not you want that this year.
Sagittarius
The full moon occurs in your sign on the 14th and likely will have you thoroughly active and well occupied. It would be easy to see everything through rose-colored glasses this week. You may be seeing reality or you may be seeing only what you want to see.
Capricorn
You have no new aspects this week so the probability is that your week’s activities will run according to plan. The larger cycle for the Goats has just changed focus to the subject of your partnership. It is becoming important to be in a serious relationship that is going somewhere.
Aquarius
Aspects in your sign may have you floating high above the ground, but you will be better served by staying connected to reality. You and another may be taking a deluxe mental/spiritual trip together during this period. You are subject to see what you want to see these days.
Pisces
See the lead paragraph. This energy is best used to handle physically heavy projects or take initiatives that you might not otherwise tackle. Choose to deal upfront with this assertive energy, or you may experience the side effects of irritability or health difficulties.
