As Mercury joins imaginative Neptune in Aquarius today, we’re mesmerized by the phantasmagoria of consciousness. No thought is too outrageous to pursue, but who knows where we’ll end up? As Alice in Wonderland did, having drunk the potion and fallen down the rabbit hole? Let your imagination lead you on a delightful trip.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’re willing to shoulder great responsibility because such an action not only proves that you are strong, but it makes you strong. Do be aware now that what you say yes to will define you, a least temporarily.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your ancestral roots will be of greater interest as you recognize and grapple with the inherited parts of you. You must admit that most of what you’ve acquired though genetics is good. Give credit where it’s due.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The heavens urge you to simplify now – your, stuff, your obligations, your schedule. Here’s one way to do it: Anything that doesn’t fit neatly in a succinct category is out.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You accomplish an amazing balance now. You nurture and care for someone without fostering dependency in them. Through teaching, you give others the gift of self-sufficiency.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). What once seemed doable now appears to be a Herculean task. Plus the reward is slow in coming, but it is on the way. Stay the course. Your belief will be key in obtaining all you want and need.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb 16). Your success formula is simple this year. You feel a calling, and you answer it. A life-changing opportunity at the end of this month requires you to move quickly. Finances keep getting better through the spring. Committed relationships challenge and inspire you in June. Your family grows in August. Capricorn and Libra are especially amorous. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 26, 34, 19 and 32.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Yes, you strive for perfection. But do avoid obsessing on minor details that no one but you will notice. Change what you can only after you have completely accepted what is.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Feeling a little raw? In need of care? Help? Love? Your vulnerability is wildly attractive. Sweet souls are drawn to you when they think there’s a possibility you could need them too.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re minding your own business, as usual. But in a quiet way, you stand out from those around you. Your intensity will be noticed, especially by those looking to add excitement and passion to their lives.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). As Jupiter’s favorite, abundance doesn’t scare you. Right now, you don’t even see the need to clear out the old and make way for the new. You’re growing, and you can handle it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Always up for a challenge, you may find it comforting to know that your immediate destiny is ripe with delicious contradictions and enthralling complications. Good. Otherwise you’d be bored out of your head.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You want to be of service. You can help others without neglecting your own needs. And just to make sure you do, take care of yourself first. Everyone will be better off for your effort.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The way things are right now indicates the thoughts you’ve been thinking lately. Put some energy into rewriting an old, disempowering story you’ve been telling yourself. You’re so brilliant now that you’ll think of a perfect ending.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: “My daughter, a Pisces, is performing a tribute to Bette Midler in major showrooms internationally. I know Bette is a Sagittarius, but is there a significant relationship between the two? They have the same stage and talent in their performances.”
Yes, Sagittarius and Pisces are both mutable signs born under the bubbly and expansive rays of Jupiter. Jupiter is the champagne planet, and exuberant Jupiter-ruled people lighten us up for their presence, showering us with vital and golden sparkle. How fortunate your daughter is a Pisces, and due to Neptune’s shared rulership, Piscean are natural mediums, so she’s an excellent channel for Bette’s energy. Piscean make great performers because she is never one person, she’s a cast of characters who comes alive in any creative venue that allows her to use her emotions and imagination to “become“ someone else. One might not assume Pisces is as brassy and bold as adventuresome Sagittarius, but the Pisces actress really hams it up when the situation calls for it. Their essential difference: Sagittarius is not emotional – her natural enthusiasm and creative fire power the performer. Yet they are kindred spirits, sharing the elan of Jupiter.
