Horoscopes

By Imhotep

Try your best to keep yourself open- minded, my dear Rams, as people born under the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries (21 Mar-21 Apr) are sometimes called, because you've got far more going on than usual. And, you might have to take in some information that doesn't make sense to you quite yet. Get rid of anything broken or useless.

Try to keep your eyes on your own work, my dear Bulls, as people born under the Fixed Earth sign of Taurus (22 Apr- 22 May) are sometimes called. You are just better served doing your own thing. You've got enough going on without worrying about what others are getting up to. You feel a little nervous about those you have to deal with this week.

Don't be afraid to move some money around fast, my dear Twins, as people born under the Mutable Air sign of Gemini (23 May-22 Jun) are sometimes called. If you feel better about things generally that is just a fringe benefit. Now is the time to shuffle your activities a bit so that they are better coordinated. You should be able to build new bridges.

Bolster your social ties right now, my dear Crabs, as people born under the Cardinal Water sign of Cancer (22 Jun-22 Jul) are sometimes called. And it will go better for you if you are at least open to the very notion of change. This is the time your deep altruistic streak will determine your course of action. You need extra support and love to offset some romantic downtime.

Defer any deep thoughts for later, my dear Lions, as people born under the Fixed Fire sign of Leo (23 Jul-22 Aug) are sometimes called. You've got secret advantages but the tensions are still thick. The same goes for friendships and family relationships. This is a great time to ask big questions.

Saying adieu is always difficult. You are facing a choice that may prove to be more complicated than you had thought at first, my dear Virgoans, as people born under the Mutable Earth sign of Virgo (23 Aug-22 Sep) are sometimes called. Your new life has nothing to do with the old. The good news is that the path you finally select will make your life a lot easier.

You have been coming face-to-face with an emotional barnacle for some time now, my dear Scales, as people born under the Cardinal Air sign of Libra (23 Sep-23 Oct) are sometimes called. Do something special for yourself and enjoy the results. Believe in your capabilities.Take time this week to focus your efforts on making money.

You and your friends are in perfect sync, so you shouldn't have to worry about poor communications or missteps, my dear Eagles, as people born under the Fixed Water sign of Scorpio (24 Oct-23 Nov) are sometimes called. The next few days are perfect for making decisions of all kinds, especially those that affect your future in new ways.

Your energy is mostly directed inward though you can do pretty much anything you want with it, my dear Centaurs as people born under the Mutable Fire sign of Sagittarius (24 Nov-23 Dec). Your money situation is a little soft lately, so do something about it. You have lost sight of your long-term financial goals.

After weeks of trying desperately to be good in the finance department and pretty much nailing it, my dear Sea Goats, as people born under the Cardinal Earth sign of Capricorn (22 Dec -22 Jan) are sometimes called, you find yourself short of funds. However, your kind nature will prevail and you will find plenty of opportunities to help others.

Revel in being selfish and self-indulgent, my dear Water Bearers, as people born under the Fixed Air sign of Aquarius (23 Jan- 19 Feb) are sometimes called. This is a week for spoiling yourself and having lots of fun with family and friends. Treat yourself to a scrumptious meal or spoil yourself silly by buying that item you don't need but can't help but drool over.

Divine guidance is needed, my dear Dolphins, as people born under the Mutable Water sign of Pisces (20 Feb-21 Mar) are sometimes called. Pay attention to the signs and symbolic significance of the nuances on faces of the people that matter. It may be formal volunteering work or just making a decision that ripples through the community.
