The Sun King visits the Earth sign Taurus now, and the moon is fittingly in the sign of mothers, Cancer, to help us feel the strong presence of Mother Nature. So talk to a rock if you’re so inclined. Converse with a mountain. Listen to the secret messages revealed to you in a handful of dirt.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Too many days in a row without the excitement of intrigue is a recipe for the blues. You need a mystery, and fast! The universe provides on this order. Your job is simply to get curious.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re not putting up with a thing. Delegate the tasks you don’t feel a passion for, or that don’t sufficiently challenge you. Tonight, you’ll learn something you never knew about a loved one.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Just when you thought you’d felt it all, your heart is tugged in new directions. Thoughtful, sacred silences keep you in control. It’s not what you say, but how able you are to follow through that really matters.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You feel fabulous! Socializing provides you the opportunity to learn from an expert. Furthermore, your broad view of the world makes you attractive to a wide variety of people.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Oh dear, there you go again, waiting around for someone with a notoriously cavalier attitude toward time. But when your plan does finally start to click into motion, you’ll realize it was a very good one.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 20). Your winning air is so attractive this year – friends want in on the ventures you undertake. An investment you make in the next seven weeks pays handsomely. Your project is brilliantly received at its unveiling in August. September is highly romantic. Wedding bells ring in November. Sagittarius and Aquarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 10, 27, 39 and 21.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re encouraged to put your talent on display. You could even be financed by someone who believes in you. So take it all the way. Make an impression that’ll put you in the big leagues.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You care about doing the right thing. But don’t let others take advantage of your goodwill by making you feel guilty. Hold on to the awareness that not every problem is yours to solve.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You rise to the occasion. Not because there’s a reward in it for you, but because it’s your nature. So when you find out there really is a reward, it’s a pleasant surprise. Accept graciously!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Things happen for you whether or not you take control. So don’t force it. Insisting it go your way could keep you from something that was better than what you originally wanted.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Light makes a difference in your attitude. Get outside and soak in some natural rays. Tonight brings a puzzle. You intuitively bypass obvious clues and go straight for the answer.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). A friend with cash to burn wants you to join in the fun. Fine, if she’s paying, but don’t feel you must match her, dollar for dollar. Remember that you’re also gracing this person with the gift of your amusing company.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You‘re open to exploring a relationship that seemed like a bad idea just yesterday. It may still be a bad idea, but no one can say you weren’t willing to offer a second chance.
FORECAST FOR THE WEEK AHEAD: There are two Earth Days a year. One was named by the United Nations and is celebrated around the world on the vernal equinox, which is the day the sun enters Aries, usually March 21. The other Earth Day started in the United States, but is now celebrated by 175 countries and falls on April 22, when the sun is in the Earth sign of Taurus. This Earth Day the Cancer moon is giving out hugs and free emotional connections to our planet for anyone willing to try to relate to her. Also offering free gifts this week will be Mercury, the messenger planet, and Pluto, the dwarf of dormant forces. These two planetary players happen to be happily accentuating one another’s strengths, and the result should be the kind of breakthroughs that help you define the previously indefinable, name the previously unnamed and loudly declare your destiny. So say you’ve wanted to get involved in something that seemed so out of your normal realm that you couldn’t even figure out the first step. This week you hit your hand to try head and say, “Oh! Now I get it!” Steps one through 100 suddenly seem obvious.
