ARIES (3/21-4/20): The name of the month sounds like a slang question for our leader. The Rams have no trouble speaking the truth. Why is that so difficult? The truth will set you free. A lie can be just a game, but the one who lies always loses in the end. The truth makes it easier to breathe. That’s why the Aries people, and animals, are free spirited. They are unencumbered by the excess baggage of deception. Only this retrograde Mars can slow you down. It’s like running with a big elastic band pulling you back. This little impediment lasts until the end of August. You can best use this time to set things up to improve your goals and cash flow from your field of work. There are good and bad aspects this month despite these roadblocks. Don’t let bad news on the 5th bother you for long. Work becomes more pleasant after the 9th. Your love life returns around the 10th. The 11th is good for upgrades at work. Your health will improve by pursuing a more natural method. Stay low on the 12th. Don’t be the victim of emotionalism. The 21st/22nd is filled with happiness and abundance. A close connection could turn sour on the 25th. People behave strangely as the Lunar Eclipse draws close on the 27th. It points to places in your life goals that need revamping. A friend could also leave town. July can be a rough month that tests your energy reserves. Put on kid gloves because a positive result requires a soft touch.

TAURUS (4/20-5/20): The Bovine lungs are filled with inspiration and other positive things this month. Uranus has penetrated the walls of your Sign. It will bring disruptions and craziness to your perfect world. Forsake all sense of peace for the next 7 years, but you can enjoy the excitement. What you won’t like are the big changes to your entire life. You would benefit from a psychic or astrologer. You will emerge in 7 years as a different Bull, or Cow. In your chosen field of work, there comes a need to blow the whistle unless you are the boss. Otherwise, it’s eating you alive inside. Just do it. It’s for the good of all, except the perpetrator. This will free you from a pressure in your head. It all turns to pleasure after the 9th. As of the 10th, the people around you become positive forces around you. The 11th can be completely liberating for you if you handled the earlier chaos in your usual pragmatic manner. The Solar Eclipse of the 12th is not a full eclipse. It can have a moderate effect of car troubles, arguments, and commuting problems. There can be some mind-bending revelations as a bonus from the eclipse. The 13th brings a sense of calm and stability. Always ask, “What would my dad do” as hard choices arise around mid-month. The 22nd spotlights your home sphere and it also brings a chance for deep-core healing. Don’t be suckered by deception on the 24th. Wait 3 weeks to hire for home servicing as of the 25th. It’s ok for you to do the repairs during those weeks, or you could just wait. You are highly likely to damage your reputation on the 27th. You just can’t help it. Stay on your toes all month.

GEMINI (5/21-6/21): You carry a message of love to hearts longing for that. Don’t feel odd or too different. It’s not a big change for you; it’s just more out there. Of course there are personal matters which need to be wrapped up by the 25th. After that date, be careful in love and contracts for 3 weeks. This Mercury retrograde affects your Sign strongly, but it also affects people with strong Virgo, Gemini, or Mercury factors in their birth charts. Your mind is a place of deep interest. This would be a good time to study metaphysics. It’s a time to forgive and release those memories that make you tense up. Any mind-expanding field of study will be a natural draw. Mercury is trying to erase and record over. Your way of thinking is being cosmically altered in some small way. Do not resist. Your efforts will prove futile! (Star Trek, early 70’s). Change your thinking, change your life, you know. The 5th can be a mind-blower. The 9th has an aspect that occurs while you sleep. That’s the best way to get through a bad aspect, I say. The Solar Eclipse on the 12th can bring minor losses if careless. Life begins to feel good again for the Twins on the 22nd. The only caution is presented by the Lunar Eclipse on the 27th. It warns of danger during long trips for awhile. Your thoughts turn inward in order to find yourself. Seeking will be worthwhile. This starts on the 25th and lasts 3 weeks.

CANCER (6/22-7/22): The Cancer Sign contains the birthday of our country. The 4th of July is perfectly placed to show the heart and character of our purpose as a nation. Freedom is protected by the claws of the Crab and stored within its shell. Cancerians are aware of attempts to limit our freedoms. Any attack on the cornerstone of freedom is noticed and felt. Home, family, motherhood, empathy, kindness, and a hand up to others. We protect women and children because it’s only right. If these are the bricks in our cornerstone, then they are sacred elements of what we are as a country. Individual Crabs will love the 4th with it’s soft touch. The 9th is perfect for an evening drive, or walk. A growing sense of wholeness is finally official on the 10th as Jupiter moves forward again from our perspective. It was a rough 4 months there as madness seemed to be the order of the day. If this doesn’t show promises of romance, you may want to consider becoming a monk, moving to a retirement home, staying home all the time, or volunteering for the Mars crew. Not to worry, Jupiter promises love and creative wonder to brighten your life. The love you find is equal to the love you have given. The use of enhanced communications (not sure what that means) can add to the bankroll. This will entail more scuttling around, but Crabs are good at that. You are directly connected to two eclipses this month. The first one on the 12th is in your Sign, so there will be an ending of some kind. The 27th is a continuation of an ending, but another door is there to be opened.

LEO (7/23-8/22): You could burst forth on the fourth more glorious than any skyrocket. You seem to be the one who brings the party to the party. Don’t worry, it’s still O.K. to show your patriotism. There are many ways to express loyalty to our freedom. Just don’t be misguided. I’m sure that Lemmings love their leader to the end. On a lighter note: The 8th has a beautiful start. The evening could hold a night of holding. The 10th can be the successful completion of a home repair, which cascades into great domestic happiness. The Sun doesn’t like it when the Moon blocks its view of the Earth. The resulting eclipse on the 12th is only partial, so be patient for a few days. The 22nd brings you into your element as you check all around and see all the enticements along your path. All in all, things look great. Leos can show a toughness, sometimes, that can make knees shake. The Lions are even more brave and protective when it comes to their own. The 27th puts a splotch of mud on white linen. It’s just a rough patch with social connections and partners. It causes a pothole on your happiness highway. Repair crew is on the way. Your generosity is obvious and so helpful to others. You give. You grow. You dine.

VIRGO (8/23-9/22): Mercury is hanging around in your Solar 12th house until early September. This really is about exploring the mines of your subconscious. It’s good to be alone, or alone with another. Those can be golden moments. Mercury has ignited a soul-searching among all but the most heartless, this year. You benefit the most. Your brain becomes like a warehouse store that’s open for free shopping.  Love and/or beauty enters your radar range on the 9th. Despite your reclusive tendency, there is still a draw to the fun, social stuff. After careful and complete analysis of why you’re so happy, you will accept the significance of it all. A friend could leave for greener pastures after the 12th. There is love to replace that friendship (I know it can never be replaced and how could I say that!). In reality there is this love feeling to soothe your aching heart. Turn the page. You may even intuit that there is permanency in this new, or growing, love bubble. This hits softly on the 13th/14th. There could be early morning surprises on the 22nd. The 24th shows how love can come with an illusion. You have to see if you can fix it, or accept it. Mercury turns retrograde on the 25th. It will stir psychic energy from some of those “off-limit” parts of your brain. 3 weeks of digging followed by a month of fogginess. Don’t be afraid. Big ships sail through fog all the time. It would be an excellent time to explore natural healing, or other health related matters. You should be careful to overcome a tendency for an ankle injury after the 27th, until Mercury goes direct again. Now is never over, so stay present.

LIBRA (9/23-10/22): The 4th is filled with all the stuff that makes America look great. It’s a time to feel unified and at peace as a country. These are Libran qualities which flow very well with our nation’s rising Sign and Midheaven point. We do better as peacemakers, than we do as an empire. These are qualities that the Scales look for in a country and in a mate. You get to be the “hub” of all activity this month. You love it. Friends are willing and able to gather on the 11th. You’re the hub, don’t forget. Fortunately, Venus has entered your Solar 12th house as of the 9th. Health irritations could keep you away from others for a few days. Your social needs are always there, but you may be sidelined, briefly. There is a purpose to this me-time. I think me-time is self-defining as to why. You may enjoy working with the earth as a form of grounding this month. There is peace in dirt. The 22nd begins to feel better. Friends start to fill your life again. Until then, you will have time to finish any home projects and become one with nature. The 22nd brings everything fun and romantic back around. However, the Lunar Eclipse on the 27th can damage a romance. The problem seems to be a failure to communicate. Too much focus on your work could cause a feeling of neglect from someone significant. Tip the Scales with a measure of love.

SCORPIO (10/23-11/21): Mars and Mighty Pluto are in no mood to play. A rare time when both are retrograde for the same month. Sounds like a time of ego suppression, or a time of obstacles. Times of blockages contain our lesson plan from the “overseers”. It calls for using a more creative part of ourselves to overcome these irritations while looking around to see what it is you are supposed to gain from this experience. Life becomes a little more jolly after the 10th. People begin to feel the happiness returning as justice restores the faith in our nation. You are the official storehouse of the Truth, as you see it. Try not to get the half-truths mixed in with the whole truth. At any rate, a smile is spotted across your lower face more frequently, now. It’s a smile that can dispel the fear in others. Something unusual is forming in your relationship. A lack of emotion leaves you feeling empty. You will make correct choices in a year about this ongoing situation. If you have to choose between a friend or a lover, just know that a real friend would understand your choice. The 12th has an eclipse that advises against long journeys this summer.  However, the Lunar Eclipse (7/27/18) adds excitement right at home, to compensate for the boredom. This eclipse can bring internet problems, and angry crowds. Life can get thrilling, but your energy could be low until September. Try to rest in the arms of a former love. Use this year to do the prep work for an increasing income throughout 2019.

SAGITTARIUS (11/22-12/21): Happy days are here again, as Jupiter ends 4 months of retrograde on the 10th. The Truth has been suppressed by every political means possible. You have been somewhat powerless or ineffective when outside yourself. Now, you can sling your arrows and reach your target more precisely. You may feel like the exhausted puppy drawing closer to home after being lost for four months. Don’t let ghosts from the past ruin the 8th. It can be a beautiful, floating day. You have been exposed to promptings from your subconscious for 4 months and now those foggy messages become very vivid. The Archers have a tendency to see everything as symbolic. For the rest of the year, your symbolic awareness is very accurate. There can be hospital visits and a liver alert. Protect that liver with some natural products like milk thistle, or ask an herbalist at a health store. The partial eclipse on the 12th, could be enough to push something over the edge. Success at work creates a joyful mood on the 21st/22nd. Happy hour? You may need a refresher course academically or philosophically at month’s end. Long journeys are somewhat trouble-filled until Aug. 18th. You have returned from your secret hiding place where you have gathered great insights for 4 months. Look out world!

CAPRICORN (12/22-1/19): Your Sign ruler, Saturn, adds leverage to your life by being in it’s home Sign of Capricorn for 2 more years. Politically, this year, it shows a majority of Americans are voting for truth and justice. This is melting the iron-clad messages which have been poured into the brains of a conservative element in our neighborhoods. Anyway, while Saturn is retrograde, it will cause delays and obstacles until the end of summer. If in a relationship, your partner is in a good mood as the month begins. Only the 12th, can bring dark clouds to your bliss. Some Seagoats could be swinging through the jungle of love, where they won’t let go of one vine until they have the next one in hand. Decisions, decisions. Your sense of permanence about everything makes it difficult to give up on one part of your life, but the stars say, go for it; just saying. Travel goes well on the 22nd. Double check your baggage. Did you forget anything? I know you keep a list. The other caution for the month is a dark force created by the Lunar Eclipse on the 27th. Guard your valuables from loss for a few weeks after the eclipse. Watch who you are attracted to over the next 30 days. Love can be an illusionary part of treachery. Your friends are a good factor. Jupiter says to laugh and have fun, while Saturn says to proceed with extra caution until early September. Your natural prudence will be on full alert. Just keep gathering what you will need when Saturn goes direct in motion in early September. That will be a great time to literally build solid structures for your life. Presently, there could be some restructuring internally.

AQUARIUS (1/20-2/18): Your rocket has finally landed on a strange world called Earth. This will be a 7 year tour of all the grounding elements of life. You may be like a bull in a china shop at first, but finally you can accept the importance of earthly matters. Yes, the pasture can be your friend, not a limitation to your former free ranging ways. The last time your ruling planet, Uranus was entering Taurus was 83 years ago. No one alive now remembers the lessons brought before us then. The rise of Fascism and the 3rd Reich as an empire moved toward world dominance and a sense of racial superiority. There were camps being set up for the Jewish people. Children were separated from their parents. A minority group was targeted as an object of scorn. The point is that you and other equally aware people can stop this unconstitutional divisiveness. We are being controlled by being divided and easily conquered. You are the bearer of knowledge like this. We all must accept the truth to save the soul of our country. Before 2021 arrives, there will be a surge of consciousness as the people crave truth and justice, as many do already. You have a higher calling right now. You have the facts and you can present them undiluted. Waterbearers sometimes have their own mix on what truth is. Be fair with your vast reserves of knowledge. Present both sides. Tell it like it is, and the truth itself will protect you.

PISCES (2/19-3/20): The Fish have a nice month ahead. The Moon is in your Sign for the 4th of July. This is a good time to sing out about what freedom is supposed to be. This can be a philosophy changing time for you as new facts come to light. The 8th brings up thoughts about the beautiful times in your life. That can make even reclusive times so invaluable. Some memories can be revived when the past presents itself. Jupiter is still considered the co-ruler of your Sign. Like actual fish, you often find yourself in strange places under odd circumstances. That’s how fish get hooked when they dare to dissolve boundaries and throw caution to the winds. Jupiter also brings great teachings of wisdom to your life. You are far wiser than people can even understand. So, Jupiter turns forward in it’s apparent motion on the 10th. Finally, a chance to make some progress again. On the 11th, you may be presented with a fun, but radical idea from a partner. Go for it! The 12th has a tiny eclipse, which warns against long journeys during the next few months. As a Dolphin, you are needed at home to save a drowning country. You will be aligned with multitudes like you. The 21st/22nd should be deliriously happy. It could be from a wrong being righted. No one has greater feelings for those who suffer than does the Pisceans. So, now your tears are tears of joy. Mercury goes retrograde for 3 weeks on the 25th. That can slow things at work, but it’s good for annual checkups. The 27th can bring a startling realization. Stay safe when you drift into deeper waters this month, and next.
