March 21 – April 20

As your passionate ruler Mars transits your sign, you may feel yourself springing out of winter blues and into spring fever mode, a few months early. Don’t worry if you have more energy than most of the people in your life. A Virgo will find a way to keep up.

April 21 – May 20

The moon in your house of love on Jan. 15 and 16 could bring you closer to someone who has been frustratingly out of reach for weeks. A Libra is finally open to your charms. Turn your powers of seduction up to 11.

May 21 – June 21

Spiritual changes aren’t going to happen magically, Gemini. If you really want to connect to something greater than yourself, you’ve got to make the time and effort. Listening to Madonna albums with a Sagittarius is not enough. (All right, it’s a start.)

June 22 – July 22

The Sun and Mercury are passing through your house of love, which means that what you say is just as important as what you do during mid-January. An Aries doesn’t know what your signals and signs mean. Spell it out. Use your body and your mind.

July 23 – Aug. 22

Venus meets Uranus in your house of serious relationships in mid-January. Don’t throw good love after bad if your lover is treating you like trash. A non-theatrical ultimatum may be called for. An Aries needs to know what you expect.

Aug. 23 – Sept. 22

This is a fine week for you to throw yourself back into an artistic endeavor that once meant the world to you. You can return to a personal project with a fresh eye. Trust what your gut tells you now, and forget about the past. A Taurus inspires you to finish what you started long ago.

Sept. 23 – Oct. 22

Take an objective look at your career history while realistic Saturn is retrograde in your work sector. You need to connect the dots for your potential employers and investors. Let people know what you do best and what you want to do next. A Scorpio wants to do you.

Oct. 23 – Nov. 21

Creativity is strong while Venus travels with Uranus through the most artistic area of your chart. But don’t be so quick to give it all up for a dream project. You are not seeing things objectively. A Capricorn can help you navigate the real world.

Nov. 22 – Dec. 21

You may want to get a little more serious about your love life while mature Saturn is in your house of long-term partnerships. Playtime is over. Another Sag is as childish as you are. Make a pact to grow up together.

Dec. 22 – Jan. 19

The Sun and Mercury are shining on you, dear. Your wit and wisdom will be appreciated in equal parts this week. Don’t rate substance over style or vice versa. You need to present a balanced image to the world. Save your extreme nature for a Pisces.

Jan. 20 – Feb. 18

This is an excellent week for you to begin a meditation practice or work on your existing one. You need to put energy into yourself, not just your computer and your cell phone. Talk less and breathe more. A Leo is breathing heavy for you even as we speak.

Feb. 19 – March 20

Venus meets Uranus in your sign in mid-January, forcing you to make a radical decision about your love life. Are you going to break an emotional pattern or have a nervous breakdown? Choose the former, please! Another Pisces can help you.
