For All Signs: Mercury, ancient messenger god, is busy this week. This suggests that most of us will be preoccupied with communication of one form or another. There may be many phone calls, messages, letters, quick conversations, rapid decisions, and/or papers to write. The period is favorable for probing into causes and finding the bottom line to any matter. Beware of the tendency to jump to conclusions or acting before all the facts are clear. Remind yourself of how the old "gossip" game is played and don't take what you hear seriously unless it is confirmed.

Aries: See the lead paragraph as it pertains to you. It appears that the focus of your attention may be on activities involving your financial resources. You feel strong and assertive, ready to move things forward. Some type of healing has occurred on the mental or physical level that gives you renewed energy.

Taurus: This is a powerful period with regard to your closest relationships. Frank and open discussions will be very effective healers at this time. There are signals that not all is so serious. Give yourself the opportunity to go out and play—try something new and different.

Gemini: Your life is ultra busy on both the interior and the exterior this week. People are playing significant roles with their comings and goings. You may be caught up in a whirlwind of activity and interesting things to do. You also have a real need to get your large muscles moving, so perhaps you will also be involved with sports.

Cancer: This is a week to design as you like. There are no new aspects to contend with as you move through the days. Your life routine should be fairly smooth. You deserve it, after the eclipse challenges in March and early April.

Leo: Your energy is strong and you are clicking on multiple levels. Love and social life are favorable. Your mind is sharp and ready to tackle anything. Your physical strength is good. You are ready to take on the next great project. Enjoy!

Virgo: This is a wonderful week to concentrate on research and mental projects. Your mind is clear and things seem to flow easily from one thing to another. You have favorable aspects for travel and networking.

Libra: Your energy is high and your mind is busy at this time. You want to enjoy things of beauty and romance. It could be hard to concentrate on mental work that requires attention to detail. Check everything twice.

Scorpio: This week's communications are largely with your partner(s). It is time to heal a rift that may have occurred long ago. It may require some courage to allow yourself to be vulnerable, but heartfelt engagement is what will relieve that old stressor.

Sagittarius: This is a good time to remember that romance in your life is a really good thing. Opportunities exist for you to enjoy travel, partner(s), and social life. The work routine is something of a challenge at this time. Do things that are good for your heart and soul.

Capricorn: Your concentration is good at this time and will help you accomplish any mental projects. Using your hands to create artwork and/or gardening is also favored. Love life and time spent with children would also go well this week. Nurturing will feel good to you.

Aquarius: This is a good week to get plenty of rest and take your vitamins. Your physical cycle is on a low. It may be difficult to get anything moving forward that concerns home, hearth and family. It is possible that a family member may need you.

Pisces: A partner, sibling, or neighbor may offer information that would help to heal you in some way. Or it is possible that you will access new information via your research. These people are willing to lend a hand if need be.
