By MARALLYN BEN MOSHEStar Catcher(photo credit: courtesy)SCORPIO (WATER) OCTOBER 24 – NOVEMBER 21 Financial concerns may cause you a few uncomfortable moments this week, but you are on top of the situation and continue to do the best you can. When arranging your schedule for the week, be prepared for sudden changes and confusion, and wherever possible avoid the office gossip around the water cooler. Past insecurities are difficult to avoid but you will eventually hear from that important client. He simply is overwhelmed himself right now.HINT: Good week for introspectionSAGITTARIUS (FIRE) NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21 A great deal of energy is being focused on money and financial matters as you begin considering the steps you need to make in the coming months. This is not the best time for beginning new things or committing yourself to a project which comes to mind now. You certainly can, however, continue with projects which are already in motion. Rather than relying on your memory take precise notes and ask as many questions as necessary.HINT: In order to reduce stress, try to delegate some of the work.CAPRICORN (EARTH) DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 19 Taking care of yourself is number one on your list right now and if that means cutting back on some of your heavy work load, so be it. You need to round out your week by including some socializing and not simply falling into bed exhausted from overwork. You continue to be surrounded by good and honest friends who have your best interest at heart. By the beginning of this week you will feel a surge of energy but remember to pace yourself.HINT: A conversation with a sibling will bring you both joy.AQUARIUS (AIR) JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18
Professionally you are gaining more confidence are prepared to put in long, hard hours as you continue to work toward achieving your goal. The people you come into contact with now will have a positive effect and, in the long run, the experience will be well worth the effort. On a personal note, you are beginning to socialize more and for the present prefer entertaining at home to spending money outside. The latter portion of this week is good for meeting with a sibling or an old and trusted friend.HINT: Don’t hesitate to speak up when you know you are right!PISCES (WATER) FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20 As much as you would love to drop everything and just stay under the covers with a good book or meet a close friend for coffee, between your professional and personal obligations, there simply aren’t enough hours in the day to socialize. During the coming weeks the situation will improve, but for the time being you need to conserve your strength and work hard. Financially, things are improving but not nearly as quickly as you would wish.HINT: Setbacks from the past weeks have dampened your spirit but in a few weeks new opportunities will arise which are better and more suited to your needs.ARIES (FIRE) MARCH 21 – APRIL 19 As difficult as it may be, this is the time for standing in the shadows and out of the limelight. Too much is going on center stage that you really don’t want to be involved in. As time goes on, you will get the answers to your question and that is when you can make your move. When dealing with older members of your family try to remain calm as a mix-up or breakdown in communication could cause some ruffled feathers and the less said at this time the better.HINT: Be honest with yourself where money and finances are concerned and wherever possible make a few minor changes which will ease up some of the pressure you are feeling.TAURUS (EARTH) APRIL 20-MAY 20 Be patient with your partner and/or mate and maybe even take a step or two back in order to give each other a little breathing space. You need some quiet emotional space in order to think and decide what is actually best for you. There is, however, a window of opportunity to strengthen the relationship if you are so willing. Professionally, take a moment to double-check documents and wherever possible take the time to re-read important papers before you add your signature. As much as you would love to travel, you don’t have the time or the money right now.HINT: After a very long day, relaxing with close friends and family is just what you need.GEMINI (AIR) MAY 21 – JUNE 21 Don’t let frustration over work matters affect your health or cause you sleepless nights. Mix-ups, breakdowns and delay are some of the things you will have to deal with in the coming weeks and the more flexible you are, the easier it will be to cross this bridge. There are times when things simply go awry and this is one of them. The less involved you are the better. Count your words as if they cost money and you won’t have to eat them later!HINT: Time spent with another air sign is advised.CANCER (WATER) JUNE 22 – JULY 22 Financially things are definitely moving in the right direction and as long as you continue curtailing your spending, the faster you will have the security you need. This is not the time for making any major purchases or committing yourself to any long-term financial obligations. If you have the cash then you can spend it. If not, wait. You need to expand the window of quiet space in order to create and grow. No one can help you but you yourself.HINT: Keep the connection flowing between yourself and a person living far away.LEO (FIRE) JULY 23 – AUGUST 22 Home and family are uppermost on your mind and although you are always ready to reach out and lend a helping hand, this is the week for holding back and taking care of yourself. For far too long you have put a special project, which is close to your heart, on hold and now is the time for dusting off your manuscript and beginning to write!HINT: A simple conversation with a family member may get out of hand, due to a breakdown in communication. Rather than get angry, smile and walk away. It will soon blow over.VIRGO (EARTH) AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22 Financial obligations must be met and although you hate to spend the money, you don’t have much choice this week. Things do break down and need repair or replacing. Always ready to help a family member you may have to readjust your entire schedule for this week in order to get everything done on time. Wherever possible be patient with your partner and/or mate. This person is doing their best to stand up to your nearly impossible high standards.HINT: This is the week for gathering information, checking prices, comparative shopping and talking with the experts.LIBRA (AIR) SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 23 Your need for justice and fair play makes it easy for you to see all sides of a situation, but this week you have to forgo your desire for peace and quiet and take a stand! A close personal friend or perhaps family member has let you down and no matter how you look at it you are disappointed, hurt and upset. When the time is right, you will know what you need to do. Financially things are far from where you would like them to be but they are also far better than they were!HINT: At work take good notes and print out important papers.
