(Mary's an Aquarius by the way.)
Aries (21 March – 19 April)
The love life gets a boost at the start of the month with a positive link between your ruler fiery Mars and romantic Venus. This means the chances of meeting someone special are much greater than usual. For those of you in a relationship, then this is a good time to rekindle some of that passion. A note of caution this month is that careless talk could land you in trouble, so be mindful of idle chatter.
Taurus (20 April - 20th May)
A great link between your ruler Venus and fiery Mars means that temperatures are set to soar. Get out and about to increase your chances of meeting someone new. If you are already in a relationship then plan the perfect treat for your loved one. Mid month your ruler moves into Pisces and makes a powerful link with unpredictable Uranus. This will endow you with irresistible powers of attraction and the ability to see right through people.
Gemini (21 May -21 June)
You begin February in an idealistic mood as your ruler links with the Sun and dreamy Neptune in Aquarius. Harsh links with Mars and Jupiter at the same time means that others might be less than understanding of your high mindedness. February will continue in a vein of fuzzy vagueness as your ruler moves into Pisces. You will not cope well with bully boy tactics or people who speak their mind this month, so it is best to avoid these types until you are feeling more resilient.
Cancer (22 June - 22 July)
April is a good month to reassess your life goals. Think about where you want to be in the next few years and take the appropriate action that will help you get there. Other areas for consideration this month are travel and education. Maybe it is time you broadened those horizons, perhaps with a trip abroad or by taking up a new class. The more unusual your choices now the better. Mars moves into your sign at the end of the month so you should feel a sudden surge of energy.
Leo (23 July - 22 August)
Keep channels of communication open between you and your family, as they will be a source of comfort and solace when times get tough. Recent tensions with someone close to you are set to ease and it will become easier to iron out the creases that have appeared in your relationship. A trip away will help recharge the batteries this month. You will feel the benefit of a break that involves fun physical activity that helps relieve any built up stresses and strains.
Virgo (23 August - 22 September)
The more new and exciting people you meet now the better. Interesting friends will open up your mind to new ways of thinking or will inspire you to take on challenges that you would never have considered before. You may uncover a more daring individual inside yourself thanks to these new acquaintances. Your ruler Mercury moves into the sign of Aries mid month, this will help you become more direct and forceful in your communications with people, but watch out for tactless comments.
Libra (23 September - 22 October)
Your ruler Venus makes a passionate link with Mars in April, which means that love is most definitely in the air. With the Sun in your sign of relationships as well, this area of life is set to dominate this month. You may also find yourself struggling with the urge to spend money you don’t have this month. However, your natural charm and easy manner will help you talk your way out of any sticky financial situation that may arise.
Scorpio (23 October - 21 November)
Your ruler Pluto in opposition to temperamental Mars for most of the month means that your temper might get the better of you. Beware of confrontations as they could be explosive and as a result irreversible changes could take place that you may not be happy with. On a brighter note a good link with Jupiter in your sign and Venus means there should be plenty of support now from your nearest and dearest.
Sagittarius (22 November - 21 December)
Whatever you are doing now there is likely to be an element of selflessness attached to it. Your energy and originality is best used thinking and acting in ways that help others or alleviates someone’s troubles. However, not everything comes easily at the moment and there is a possibility that you will face opposition from people who don’t share your vision. Remain positive as this trait will see you through any troublesome patches.
Capricorn (22 December - 16 January)
Get active around the house this month for positive results at home. Maybe a bit of DIY or redecorating is on the cards. Whatever you decide just make sure it is totally absorbing as idleness could lead to accidents. Financial concerns will be a dominate theme this year, but hopefully this month will see a slight reprieve if things haven’t been going so well. If you are saving for something in particular then your target will come a little closer in April.
Aquarius (20 January - 18 February)
Venus has been travelling through your sign for the past month and making links with Neptune, giving you an otherworldly attractiveness. However, this planetary activity could also scramble the brain a bit and you may be dogged with feelings of uncertainty or anxiety about what you are doing in life. There are choices to be made and hard work to do now and it all seems a little daunting. However, good links with Mercury and Uranus by the end of the month should help you come up with some good ideas.
Pisces (19 February - 20 March)
You may have been guilty of a bit of laziness and over indulgence recently, but soon you are going to be on your feet again and brimming with fantastic ideas that see you back in action. Mercury and Venus both link with Uranus in your sign this month, which means you are going to have great ideas coupled with the charm that ensures that other people are on your side. Mars moving into Cancer at the end of the month will give you the energy boost to see your plans get a good head start.
