Horoscope

Tip of the Week:  
On Saturday, March 22, 2020, Saturn entered the revolutionary and future-oriented sign of Aquarius (it was the 21st for most of North America). Saturn will remain in Aquarius until July 1st, when it will re-enter Capricorn, due to its retrograde cycle, where it will remain until December 17. Saturn will reach 1 Aquarius 57 by May 11 on which day it turns retrograde. Saturn will then retrograde back to 25 Capricorn 20 until September 28 when it will resume direct motion again. So, despite the retrograde back into its own ruling sign of Capricorn for 5.5 months, Saturn will officially enter Aquarius, the sign it co-rules on March 22 largely remaining there until March 7, 2023. This Saturn theme, the famously ringed planet symbolic of karma, duty, discipline, limitations, restrictions, and restraints, and responsibilities are clearly playing a major role now and will all year culminating in a conjunction with Jupiter on Winter Solstice. The Aquarian influence indicates revolution and it is occurring on a global scale by the command of destiny.
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
How quickly the world can change! If you have been diligently securing your nest and nurturing your nest eggs, you will be experiencing the rewards and returns for your efforts. If you feel like you are out on a limb and have not been as diligent as perhaps you now feel you should, then you have work to do. This includes generating new streams of income.
Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)
Saturn’s influence is ever a double-edged sword. It is so due to the very nature of reality, in duality. On one hand, you feel like you have climbed steadily and have arrived at a high peak. On the other hand, it may be cold up there and is unlikely to feel comfortable and secure, despite feelings of victory. It is probably time to outline a new plan.
Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)
You may feel as though you have come through a powerful phase of change that has literally transformed you inside and out. Positively, you feel like you can breathe deeply again. However, as life goes, you find yourself in a new arena of experiences. This one will push you to take pioneering initiatives and will include other things to learn.
Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)
The journey of Saturn in Aquarius is destined to have a powerful, transformational impact on you. It will not happen all at once, yet, it has already begun. It will have a direct influence on your personal and professional life. Jupiter is currently synchronizing with expansion and it too is impacting your very sense of self and in relation to your career and social status.
Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)
A whole new level of commitment will be activated by Saturn in Aquarius for you. You will have to be patient and it will include a process of paying your dues. This can come in the form of financial outlays, but will probably more fully include a learning/training process. This will come in stages and it begins now. If you have already been busy this way, expect to be busier.
Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)
Overcoming fear brings rewards. This is usually a ‘learned and earned’ process. Fear is very instinctual and activates our fight or flight mechanisms to survive. Often, fear is conjured by the stories we tell ourselves and especially by our own overactive imagination. Resistance to change or attachment to comfort and familiarity or to an inability or unwillingness to adapt is the other issues to overcome.
Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Challenging times can activate heroism and untapped reserves of strength and resolve. On the other hand, they can activate our lower nature where we slip into despair and indulge in justified anger, reaction, and blame. While reaction can rise, it can also be managed. Gratitude is key to elevating our perspective and serves to intercept reactive behavior. ‘Calmness is power’.
Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You have entered a cycle which will challenge you to lay claim to hidden reserves of power. This can generally be regarded as your resourcefulness. It also includes your willingness to enter new territory and to take new approaches. If ever there was a time to step into a new mode of action and reconsideration of your self-concept and what you deem possible, it is
now.
Sagittarius (Nov 22–Dec 21)
You have entered an important and powerful learning curve. It will require a whole new level of commitment. Fortunately, you may discover that you are in the mood to learn. This is not always the case, even for you, so the timing is good. It will also lead you to engage with new people and forge alliances, but this aspect will fully kick-in a little later.
Capricorn (Dec 22–Jan 19)
Well, the battalion of planets in your sign is sure making its impact on the world stage. This is true at an archetypal level and is not about you personally. While you are usually inclined towards traditional attitudes and approaches, destiny and outer circumstances are blending to direct your focus to look to the future.
Aquarius (Jan 20–Feb 19)
Saturn in your sign is destined to activate a whole new level of discipline. This will prove true over the course of the year and is likely to manifest as a challenging process. It could well include major changes close to home and even a change of residence, the concentrated focus of which will begin this week. It could manifest as something of a turbulent emotional ride so keep breathing.
Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)
Saturn in Aquarius will manifest as an important follow-through process for you. While it will not bode well for new initiatives, it could prove successful regarding projects already started over the past months and years even. So review all the projects and goals that you have started but have not completed and focus to follow through, perhaps one at a time.
