20^th – New Moon Annular Eclipse in 2^nd

 

• How you look, feel and what you want will be important this week
• Think BIG
• What have you neglected?

 

This week the astro spotlight is shining on you, dear Taurus. The reason? On the 14^th the Sun in your 1^st house conjuncts Jupiter planet of luck and expansion. For those Taureans with birthdays within 2-3 days of the 14^th – look forward to a year which is going to be all about broadening your horizons in some way. Sorry. If you thought you were going to be staying home and spending your seminal moments with either your shoe collection or your Playstation it’s not to be. Larger than life experiences and people will open up doors to you that you would never have been dreamed of even peeping through the key hole of (you leave that kind of thing to your opposite sign of Scorpio).

 

For all Taureans this week the emphasis really is on your chance to shine in some way with yet another Grand Earth trine taking place with Mercury planet of communication in your 1^st, Mars in your 5^th of attraction and creativity and Pluto in your 9^th of travel, mass communications, big business and higher learning.

 

The New Moon Annular eclipse on the 20^th which takes place in your 2^nd house of assets combined with the Venus retrograde in the same house is going to ask you if there is anything you have been neglecting. Perhaps this is a project, a goal or ambition or even a relationship as the 2^nd house co-rules partners or potential ones as they can be assets for us. If you find the answer is yes, then use this time to bring things up to date. And if that requires that for once you have to do a u-turn, that four planet stellium in your sign means you not only can – you can accomplish this with style.

20^th – Annular Eclipse in 1^st

 

• Love comes in many forms this week
• A pause before renewal
• Look for the shoots from something you planted a while back

 

I’ll let you in on a secret, Gemini. Astrology’s best-kept secret is actually YOU this week! There’s a whole lot of action taking place in your sector of spirituality and secrets this week. You’re going to be going undercover in more ways than one and discovering some truths about yourself and others in the process.

 

The week begins with the Sun meeting Jupiter in your 12^th house. There’s also a Grand Earth trine happening with also affects your 12^th house as well as your 4^th of home and security and your 8^th of endings and transformations. A situation may come to a head which could undermine your sense of security or well-being. However this plays itself out, you’ll find yourself looking at love in its various forms and focussing on its more spiritual aspects. You’ll also have the revelation that romantic love is only one expression of it. Want more love? Who doesn’t? Remember others are just a mirror for how much we love ourselves.

 

You’re in a resting period – a pause before pushing out into the world. There’s something alluring and mysterious about you this week all brought about by Venus planet of love going retrograde in your first house and a New Moon Annular eclipse which takes place on the 20^th just inside your 1^st. Look for the shoots from seeds you planted a while back as someone gets back to you on that CV or project you submitted or that person you gave your number to suddenly calls. This could all come to fruition next month.

 

Cancer

 

14^th – Sun conjunct Jupiter in 11^th

 

15^th – Venus retrograde in 12^th

 

15^th – Grand Earth trine in 11^th (Mercury), 3^rd (Mars) and 7^th (Pluto)

 

20^th – New Moon Annular Eclipse in 12^th

 

• Join in this week – committees, clubs, causes feature
• Emotions are heightened and sensitive
• Express rather than suppress your feelings

 

Although you may feel like hiding from the world this week Cancer, with Venus retrograde in your 12^th house of spirituality and seclusion on the 15^th followed by a New Moon Annular eclipse also in your 12^th on the 20^th, I’m going to ask you to go against your innate desire to withdraw and reach out instead.

 

The reason is a brilliant line up of planets all in your 11^th house of friends and groups of people. Join a group, club or a committee. If your sensitivity is making you more empathic than usual to the plight of others, instead of shedding tears alone for the pain and suffering in the world, use these feelings to go and make a change in the world as the 11^th house also rules charity work. You could find yourself becoming the voice for those who otherwise would not have one such as animals, children or others who cannot speak out. The Sun conjunct Jupiter in your 11^th plus a Grand Earth trine in that house involving Mercury planet of communication, Mars in your 3^rd house of communication and Pluto in your partnership sector means you can team up with others to make a real difference now. Single Cancerians could even find their good deeds bring them a potential love interest – not that that’s your motivation however!

 

The New Moon Annular Eclipse on the 20^th is asking you to learn how to ask for what you want. If you’ve been left thinking it’s always others who get the job/relationship/life they want and not you, it’s time you realised a simple truth – those who ask almost always get what they want. Or don’t you think you deserve that? This eclipse is all about asking yourself just that.

 

Leo

 

14^th – Sun conjunct Jupiter in 10^th

 

15^th – Venus retrograde in 11^th

 

15^th – Grand Earth trine in 2^nd (Mars), 6^th (Pluto) and 10^th (Mercury),

 

19^th – 4 Planet Stellium in 10^th – Sun, Mercury, Moon and Jupiter

 

20^th – New Moon Annular Eclipse in 11^th

 

• You run into a past connection at a social event
• Increased responsibility is on the way
• Others will judge you by the company you keep

 

Whatever you do this week, Leo – don’t be tempted to emulate your opposite sign of revolutionary Aquarius. There’s the promise of substantial progress in the air for you with an amazing line-up in your 10^th house of long term ambitions with the Sun conjunct Jupiter planet of expansion and luck on the 10^th, a Grand Earth trine on the 15^th which takes place in your 2^nd house of status, your 6^th of career and your 10^th and then a four planet stellium in your 10^th house on the 19^th. But anything you accomplish now has to be done via traditional methods or channels. It’s a question of working with an existing system no matter its imperfections, rather than overthrowing it which Aquarius loves to do. Provided you adhere to this you could find yourself making substantial inroads or even arriving at, your goal.

 

Bear in mind increased success brings increased responsibility.

 

Good thing you are usually always aware of your public image Leo because the New Moon Annular eclipse in your 11^th house on the 20^th means you could be judged by the company you keep so choose your companions wisely this week. However, Venus which turned retrograde in your 11^th house on the 15^th means you could cross paths with a past connection at a social event. If so, expect an attraction to be re-kindled.

 

 

 

Virgo

 

14^th – Sun conjunct Jupiter in 9^th

 

15^th – Venus retrograde in 10^th

 

15^th – Grand Earth trine in 1^st (Mars), 5^th (Pluto) and 9^th (Mercury),

 

19^th – 4 Planet Stellium in 9^th – Sun, Mercury, Moon and Jupiter

 

20^th – New Moon Annular Eclipse in 10^th

 

• Your relationship to others and the world at large is transformed
• Return to what you love
• Dreams are signposts – follow them now

 

With Mars planet of action and assertiveness still in your 1^st house and all caught up in another Grand Earth trine which takes place this week on the 15^th, you are about to see your relationships transform as you set about taking steps you may have been putting off for a while. It’s all about how you fit into the grand scene of things now.

 

There’s lots of action going on in your 9^th house of dreams, communication and travel with the Sun conjunct Jupiter on the 14^th, the Grand Earth trine and a four planet stellium on the 19^th. Dreams take us on journeys and I’m not just talking about what we dream when we sleep but the dreams we have about what we want to achieve. If you’ve abandoned your dreams or given up something you love because it just didn’t seem ‘practical’ at the time, Venus retrograde in your 10^th house on the 15^th, followed by the New Moon Annular eclipse there on the 20^th offers you a fresh opportunity to reconnect to what really matters.

 

Think like a Sagittarian this week, Virgo. Yes, I know they are messy and hopelessly disorganised but they dream big and travel far – and that’s where you need to go right now if only in your dreams.

20^th – New Moon Annular Eclipse in 9^th

 

• News arrives to do with the home, legacies or corporate or shared money
• Restrictions are there for a reason – don’t fight them
• Time to prepare for beautiful outcomes

 

This week Venus your ruler turns retrograde in your 9^th house of higher learning, travel, law, big business and mass communications. The New Moon Annular eclipse which happens on the 20^th, also takes place in your 9^th. For those Libras facing exams, projects or presentations, Venus is handing you the opportunity to revise and add the finishing touches, while the New Moon means you may look at things now with new eyes. Anything started now will yield a beautiful outcome later.  Saturn still lurking in your first house says you will have earned it however.

 

In fact, if you’re still feeling restricted in some way thanks to Saturn’s two year sojourn in your sign, please don’t fight it. Saturn symbolises grace under pressure and you Libra, know all about grace.

 

There’s also a great deal of action taking place in your 8^th house of transformations, endings, corporate or shared money and legacies this week. The Sun meets Jupiter there on the 14^th, while a four planet stellium forms on the 19^th. Add to this a Grand Earth trine on the 15^th which also pulls in planets in your 4^th house of home and your 12^th of spirituality, you could be set to receive some news which speeds up a transformation that has been taking place on a deep level in your life for some time.

 

 

Scorpio

 

14^th – Sun conjunct Jupiter in 7^th

 

15^th – Venus retrograde in 8^th

 

15^th – Grand Earth trine in 11^th (Mars), 3^rd (Pluto) and 7^th (Mercury),

 

19^th – 4 Planet Stellium in 7^th – Sun, Mercury, Moon and Jupiter

 

20^th – New Moon Annular Eclipse in 8^th

 

• Partnerships and long term relationships bring opportunities
• Spend or borrow only what you need and no more
• Consider other’s comfort levels

 

It’s all about partnerships for you this week, Scorpio with loads of 7^th house action. The Sun meets Jupiter planer of expansion and opportunity in there on the 14^th, while Mercury forms part of a Grand Earth trine which will take in your 7^th house on the 15^th. Right after that you’ll get the benefit of a four planet stellium in there on the 19^th. Don’t forget – our 7^th house rules all kinds of partners and not just marriage/long term romantic ones but business partners and any close connection. Close friends come under the rulership of this house and so can animals if you work with them – your horse would be your partner if you ride for example. No matter if you partner has two legs or four or whether it’s a personal or professional connection, opportunities are likely to arise around or from them this week, Scorpio.

 

No partner? Get out there as that Grand Earth trine in your 11^th, 3^rd and 7^th houses on the 15^th could usher in a partner with whom you have plenty to transformative things to talk about with.

 

Your 8^th house of transformations and yes – sex, is also highlighted this week with Venus planet of love turning retrograde there on the 15^th to be followed by a New Moon Annular eclipse on the 20^th. This eclipse will particularly impact on those Scorpios born in the last few days of the sign. This house also rules corporate or shared money. While Jupiter in your 7^th is all about expansion, Venus in your 8^th and the New Moon is telling you to pull back. If you are borrowing money, only borrow what you need and no more (this goes double if the money is coming from a partner!). Don’t splurge now but spend only on what you need and not what you want (yes, there IS a difference!). Above all, consider other’s comfort levels now – whether you’re in the boardroom or the bedroom. And therein lies the transformation.

 

 

Sagittarius

 

14^th – Sun conjunct Jupiter in 6^th

 

15^th – Venus retrograde in 7^th

 

15^th – Grand Earth trine in 10^th (Mars), 2^nd (Pluto) and 6^th (Mercury),

 

19^th – 4 Planet Stellium in 6^th – Sun, Mercury, Moon and Jupiter

 

20^th – New Moon Annular Eclipse in 7^th

 

• Balance your need for independence with relationships
• Career progress continues to be highlighted
• Express yourself more creatively

 

For this month the emphasis really is on the areas of your chart concerning your career, status, assets and reputation, Sag. Your ruler Jupiter meets the Sun in your 6^th house of career and well-being on the 14^th. He’s joined there by Mercury who forms part of yet another Grand Earth trine on the 15^th which also impacts other houses concerned with your finances and work and then on the 19^th you receive all the benefits of an amazing four planet stellium in your 6^th house which again seem intent just on beaming opportunities and breakthroughs in your direction. How to best take advantage of this? My advice is to harness your creativity – whether or not you consider yourself creative or not isn’t the point. You’re a creative thinker. Showcase those thoughts now – even if they are just telling you to dress differently this week. No matter what you do small actions can yield big results.

 

Serious action taking place in your partnership sector offers a respite from work. Venus retrograde in your 7^th on the 15^th has you looking seriously at how to balance your innate Sagittarian need for freedom and independence within a relationship. Suddenly you’re seeing how you can in fact further your needs as an individual through close partnerships.

 

The New Moon Annular eclipse which also takes place in your 7^th house on the 20^th offers you the opportunity to put this all into practice. This will particularly impact on those Sagittarians born in November. And if in the past you’ve put your great big Sagittarian foot in it with a partner, this week you’ll be able to finally open your mouth, take both feet out and put things right again.

 

 

Capricorn

 

14^th – Sun conjunct Jupiter in 5^th

 

15^th – Venus retrograde in 6^th

 

15^th – Grand Earth trine in 1^st (Pluto), 5^th (Mercury) and 9^th (Mars)

 

19^th – 4 Planet Stellium in 5^th – Sun, Mercury, Moon and Jupiter

 

20^th – New Moon Annular Eclipse in 6^th

 

• Strike out on a new path without fear
• Pleasure comes through children or creative projects
• You’re only interested in relationships that are drama-free

 

All the action this week continues to be focussed on your 5^th house of love and creativity, Capricorn. Once upon a time all that drama in relationships equalled passion for you. Now you find yourself so over it. You’re only interested in relationships that flow easily and are drama-free. If you are single and looking, the planets should throw up plenty of opportunities now with the Sun conjunct lucky Jupiter, a Grand Earth Trine and a four planet stellium all taking place in your 5^th house. It’s all about attraction. If you are a parent, your child could be in the spotlight for some reason.

 

This 5^th house action is also all about taking risks and above all, not being afraid to be yourself – which is what Pluto making his lengthy stay in your first house is trying to teach you.

 

On the 15^th, Venus planet of love and creativity turns retrograde in your 6^th house of career and wellbeing. The New Moon Annular eclipse on the 20^th also happens in your 6^th. Are you getting the message you should cut back the work hours or slow down in some way? If so, heed it. Other Capricorns may contemplate a total change of career direction and a new start under this influence. Remember what I said about risk taking and being yourself? Now you see the connection.

 

Aquarius

 

14^th – Sun conjunct Jupiter in 4^th

 

15^th – Venus retrograde in 5^th

 

15^th – Grand Earth trine in 12^th (Pluto), 4^th (Mercury) and 8^th (Mars)

 

19^th – 4 Planet Stellium in 4^th – Sun, Mercury, Moon and Jupiter

 

20^th – New Moon Annular Eclipse in 5^th

 

• Visitors will stay longer than expected
• New beginnings in relationships and creative projects
• You take steps to improve home and family life

 

The focus remains on your home life and security this week, Aquarius with massive transits occurring in this area of your chart. On the 14^th the Sun meets Jupiter, planet of luck and expansion there. It’s followed on a an Grand Earth trine in your 4^th, 8^th and 12^th houses on the 15^th and then a four planet stellium on the 19^th. This should see you taking steps to improve your home and family life in some way. You’re thinking of the future and how to make it even more secure and that starts with where you are right now. A word of warning however – you’re radiating the ability to generate a safe haven which others may find so comforting that if they come to stay they may not want to leave in a hurry. Remember – house guests can be like fish – they go off after three days. Consider this warning doubled if your guest is your mother-in-law.

 

Venus retrograde in your 5^th house of love affairs and creativity would normally point to you going back over old ground. However, the New Moon Annular eclipse also in your 5^th on the 20^th actually brings through the opportunity for new beginnings. Of course, this can literally mean a new beginning with someone from the past. If so, treat it literally as that. Get to know them all over again as if you had just met for the first time. If so, you may end up with a vastly different result this time around.

 

If you’ve been lurking in that ivory tower all by yourself Aquarius, this eclipse is all about sharing – you mainly. Are you being stingy with you? Are you grandly saving yourself for the ‘right’ person instead of Mr. or Ms. Right Now? If so you need to ask yourself who or what you are really withholding. Chances are all you are doing is withholding the love and pleasure we find in connecting with others from yourself. If so, ask yourself why?

 

Pisces

 

14^th – Sun conjunct Jupiter in 3^rd

 

15^th – Venus retrograde in 4^th

 

15^th – Grand Earth trine in 11^th (Pluto), 3^rd (Mercury) and 7^th (Mars)

 

19^th – 4 Planet Stellium in 3^rd – Sun, Mercury, Moon and Jupiter

 

20^th – New Moon Annular Eclipse in 4^th

 

• Opportunities to up-skill present themselves
• Don’t try to be in two places at once
• Mailboxes overflow

 

You may be spending a great deal of time answering emails this week, Pisces due to an unprecedented planetary line up in your 3^rd house of communication. It’s not just the sheer volume of what you may need to deal with but how you are dealing with it that will count. The Sun meets Jupiter, planet of expansion and yes, mass communication in your 3^rd. Mercury planet of communication is in there too and involved in a Grand Earth trine which also takes in your 11^th house of groups of people and your 7^th partnership sector. Then there’s a four planet stellium also in your 3^rd house on the 19^th.

 

If you’re not juggling invitations you’re going to be juggling a busy schedule. Keep your diary up to date to take advantage of the opportunities both social and professional that may come your way this week. You may even be given an opportunity to go on a course or attend a seminar. The only question in your mind may be – how do I fit it all in?

 

The sound of the post hitting the mat at home only compounds the problem. Venus retrograde in your 4^th house of home and security coupled with the New Moon Annular eclipse in the same house on the 20^th, means your family life will be in focus and you may find yourself having to balance your Piscean need for privacy against family and social obligations. The challenge here is to find the healthy balance and take charge of your home obligations and balance these against the demands of your larger family unit and indeed, the world.
