Mercury in Aries loosens tongues and makes us a bit more selfish. Opposing Jupiter in Libra (which represents greater cooperation), this discord could highlight opportunities to work on bringing diverse individual efforts together. Uranus in Pisces offers a key to adjustments through inspiration and sympathy.

March 20 – April 19

In your eagerness for self-expression, you may want to sit down and write it out; just spitting it out is likely to get you into an argument. Introspection – granted, not your strong suit – will help you say more and argue less.

April 21 – May 20

Worrying about your health need not be a bad thing – if you don’t overdo it. A checkup couldn’t hurt. Meditation, relaxing, and discussing your problems with friends may prove more helpful at less cost.

May 21 – June 21

It’s time for you to party and play. (This isn’t a euphemism for drugs – you’re not dull enough to need that crutch.) Your social talents are incandescent enough to get you noticed, perhaps even to give you a professional boost.

June 22 – July 22

Invite the boss home for dinner, bring home-baked goodies to work, or otherwise marshal your domestic resources for professional benefit. Something with a novel, exotic flavor will make a big impression.

July 23 – Aug. 22

Of course you know best, but now that could be the problem. At least let others have their say, and try to keep an open mind. Listening carefully and asking provocative questions makes you look sexier than usual, and invites a novel, possibly erotic, surprise.

Aug. 23 – Sept. 22

It’s time to talk about what you really want sexually. Just opening up the topic will open you to new perspectives on what’s important for you. Your partner – whether for life or just du jour – may be shocked, but should be happy to help you explore.

Sept. 23 – Oct. 22

Relationships could always use some work. This is an ideal time to talk out issues and put a new light on problems that may have so far gone unexpressed. A few bumps and jolts now will save lots of trouble later.

Oct. 23 – Nov. 21

Your busy brain needs the focus and guidance of a trusted confidante. Tempted though you are to seize the initiative, you’ll spare yourself a lot of trouble if you talk things out first. Playful diversions will also help you work more effectively.

Nov. 22 – Dec. 21

Let your individuality shine and you’ll become a leading light of your social set. Putting some of that energy into community service will give you new perspective on political opportunities that are opening up for you.

Dec. 22 – Jan. 19

Arguments at home can provide insight or obstacles to opportunity at work. Those spats are emotional, not logical, so mythical and poetic impressions can yield powerful inspiration when logic proves useless.

Jan. 20 – Feb. 18

You love a good argument, now more than ever. Just make sure to keep an open mind. Let yourself make mistakes and accept correction so you can arrive at deeper truths.

Feb. 19 – March 20

Great sex now may divert you from dealing with necessary business at hand. Deep within yourself you know what really needs to be done – if you can ignore selfish distractions. Take care of business and there will be time for fun!
