ARIES - March 21 thru April 19
Financial communications need to be carefully reviewed until 11/8. You are the intellectual pioneer; be careful about leaping before you look this month. In December, conflict can be fruitful. Honesty is your best defense. Remember to treat your partner as a friend. A small vacation may work after the first week. If single, you could meet a new love interest at work around 11/22. Marriage or long-term relationships work well between 12/2 to 12/7. Let your partner have the last word. Learn the fine art of negotiation.

TAURUS - April 20 thru May 20
Take advice after 11/8; before then, think it over. Don't let a partner's aloofness throw you off. Allow them to be. They love you; they are just a bit touchy. It will pass by the end of Dec. Creative/artistic projects can be completed by 11/3. Health is sensitive. Herbs to fight infections would be a good decision. Those born late in Taurus are still going through tests of projects and relationships that are on a 7-year cycle. What have you learned artistically, lovingly, financially, and physically from the last 7 years?

GEMINI - May 21 thru June 21
Exercise is a priority in November. Those seasons opposite to when you were born can be most difficult if you are not willing to change a perception. Confrontations can be helpful; make the effort to allow for differences. We are all in this together, but we are not the same. Finances are improving, but watch spending in December. Learn the value of giving and taking. Don't take more than you give. Find a balance. By December, you reach a new level of loving with a partner. Send the kids to bed early. Enjoy each other.

CANCER - June 22 thru July 22
Begin new studies after 11/8. Instead of arguing with your partner, take walks together. Keep over-reaction to a minimum from 11/1 to 11/6 and 11/9 to 11/15. The 19th is a good day to consider a wedding, get engaged, or start a love affair. Best to complete home projects early in December because you will want to be celebrating later on. Romance will feel very secure by the Full Moon on the 25th. Whatever your partner suggests on the 29th, say yes. The year is going to end on a high note. A Solar Eclipse on 12/25 will bring the smell of change in the air. Embrace it.

LEO - July 21 thru August 22
New ideas are presented after 11/4. New job prospects appear after the 13th. Create something between 11/22 to 12/23, and remember your family's needs, including your pets. Allow extra time in December for family agendas. They need you now. Get shopping done early. Your energy is high; outdoor exercise is a good way to release it positively. Give your partner more space on 12/24. An eclipse on 12/25 could focus change in the work, health, and pet areas of your life. Be careful of overreacting. Change is good!

VIRGO - August 21 thru September 22
Spending may be exaggerated in November. You will make enough, but spend more. Decisions made before 11/8 are likely to change, so beware of making bottom-line statements. You have a very busy December. Hobbies, romance, creative work and kids are in focus this month. Donate time to a humanitarian cause to give back the joy you are feeling now. Getting your house in order with beautification projects will be a priority. By 12/29 you will feel loving again, if you consider your mate's needs first. Out with the old attitudes and in with the new. You are in the right place, don't worry.

LIBRA - September 24 thru October 23
November 4 through December 23rd is the busiest time of your whole year. Mars in your sign from 11/04 to 11/22 will make you a bit feisty. You want the last word -- and you get it! Be assertive now, but don't burn bridges. Spending habits will have to be examined in both months. New admirers come forward between 12/12 to 12/24. Be aware of any decision you make on the Solar Eclipse, 12/25. This will focus decisions on the domestic front that could affect you for an entire year. Choose well. You will never be unfair.

SCORPIO - October 24 thru November 22
You may feel a bit misunderstood in November. By the 15th, you will start to realize where you are considering yourself more than your relationship. The more you give to others, the more you receive. Be careful with secret affairs in December. You are more assertive and magnetic and can charm anyone now. After 12/23, affection towards your partner will bring big rewards. Consider decisions made around 12/25. The effect could have lasting results. A new attitude is the outcome. Be sure and share your decisions with your mate, or your intentions could be misread. Kindness is the key.

SAGITTARIUS - November 23 thru December 21
Time alone for reflection will feel necessary; your sweetie will comply. Trying to sort recent changes in yourself and where you are going from here will be more important than going out with the gang. Just be sure to check in and let them know you are thinking of them. December will bring some important new things to share and talk about. Perhaps a class or other mental stimulation is in order. Don't crack your budget after the 23rd. Financial changes are coming in the New Year. Relax at home on the 31st and make friends with yourself. This is a good life, after all.

CAPRICORN - December 22 thru January 19
As always, work will require a lot of diplomacy these months. Polish your image and set high goals between 11/22 and 1/20. You are in demand and your guidance is required. Don't hesitate to nurture relations, and remember to listen. Things will be cooking in your favor by the end of November. A casual relationship could turn serious after 12/1. The 5th could even bring a marriage proposal. Give your partner space on 12/24 and 12/29. Consider decisions carefully on Christmas Day. They could have long reaching effects. Your life is on the move. Enjoy the ride.

AQUARIUS - January 20 thru February 18
Private time vs. social time is part of the dilemma in November. Promises to partners up until 11/8 will be difficult to fulfill. Perhaps a romantic get away between 11/10 to 11/16 will soothe ruffled feathers. By December your energy is high, but work demands will be high as well. Set your boundaries. Early in December your partner will be enchanted by you, but your rebellious nature surfaces and you need time alone later in the month. The 29th could bring a marriage or renewal of vows. You are a hard one to contain, you know. You will take suggestions, but not orders. An old love could reappear about 12/25.

PISCES - February 19 thru March 20
Don't take your partner for granted in November, or complications could arise. Misunderstandings can lead to major problems. Work is paramount in both months, and your calendar in so full by 12/21 that you could stress yourself by trying to be all things to all people. Spend some quiet time alone between 12/8 and the 31st. Keep the home fires burning and become inventive. You have it in you. December 9th could be a very romantic day. Make the best of it. Stay in touch with your caring nature, and remember to care for yourself as well. You don't have to save the world -- just yourself.

Happy New Year to one and all. May we all find peace and prosperity within ourselves.
