Aries

Your ruler is occupying a super location and has been since last autumn, one which is quite brilliant for supercharging your efforts. So why is it you have felt that things have been somewhat bogged down, at times? The answer is that it has been reversing. This now ends and together with Saturn's help, real progress can be made the rest of this month.

Taurus

There have probably been times in the last few months when your immediate surroundings or the people you see daily, have closed in on you. Even if you're content with your lot there may have been the odd niggle. Perhaps you haven’t felt as even tempered. From now however, you can find the motivation to sort out anything which has got you down.

Gemini

We can all rush to make judgments and even when you don't, someone you have interacted with - will have rushed their judgment of you! So impatience when we communicate is something most of us have experienced at some time or another. But just because someone has a different credo, doesn’t mean they're not worthy. Bear this in mind now.

Cancer

This is an excellent time to carry out a personal financial audit. If there have been debts or everyday costs dragging you down, a determination to change this for the better can stand the test of time. One area you can become driven to reduce your expenses can be around utilities, such as gas, electricity, water or telephone. Leave no stone unturned.

Leo

You are the proud beast of the astral jungle, and you dislike having to explain or justify yourself, to those lesser mortals - as you see them, around you. The problem is that people may have viewed you as someone who wants everything your own way. This may have affected your popularity Leo. This is a good time to launch a PR campaign.

Virgo

Are you more entrapped by elements of your past than you care to admit or realize? Once more you have a chance to come into the present, the here and now, and yet, that doesn’t mean that there cannot be links to your past, or the people that you once had more to deal with. It can be more positive this time around, if you give things a chance.

Libra

However hard you've been trying to get ahead and be future orientated, a lot of this year has been asking you to get the foundations in your current situation sorted. As ever you can’t run before you walk, and the things you've been caught up in has shown this. Now you have a chance to balance current activities with where you eventually want to be.

Scorpio

Demanding that people do things only on your terms, or trying to coerce situations to suit your own ends, may have created a lot of hostility. You have a chance to change perceptions now, but this may require you to backtrack. By clearing up this old matter, you'll be showing true leadership, and this can ignite more respect than you might imagine.

Sagittarius

You can be an impatient soul. How many times have you rushed headfirst into situations, only to find your cover is broken and there's no way back? Yet funnily enough, now you can balance a little bit of impetuousness with planning in a way which can be good for you. An organized expansion, if you like. Skills training or personal development courses can help.

Capricorn

You more than most know that application is 9/10th’s of success and rarely are you stinting in putting it in, once you are inspired by a goal. Yet you could be forgiven for feeling that however hard you try, the fates, or the management, have been dead set against you! It’s not too late to turn things around - in fact a stunning success is yet possible.

Aquarius

You can be tenacious, in a way similar to members of the previous zodiac sign to yours, of Capricorn. That’s because both signs share the stoic Saturn as your ruling planet. Yet even if you have felt you have been swimming against the tide, remember that’s just the way with tides, they ebb and they flow and an ebb can now see you fight back, and how so.

Pisces

Think back to the autumn time. Have you been working extra hard? Or have you been looking after someone who can’t look after themselves? Yet any selflessness you've shown, may have taken a personal toll. Now is the time to start to balance all this giving, with some getting. Your energy is not inexhaustible, so think how you can change this Pisces.
