Mars is in Taurus, which is good for getting things done – but he’s inflexible. Now opposing Jupiter in Scorpio, he is open to seeing the deeper effects of his efforts, but he’s still relentless. While these planets are aspecting Uranus in Pisces, it’s a great time to consider options and improvements in both methods and purpose.

March 20 – April 18

There’s no end to sexual opportunities now. Although you’re the sign that most wants instant gratification – and there’s lots to be had – you also want something deeper and more important. Stop, think, and hold out for what you really want.

April 19 – May 20

You’ve been feeling stuck lately. With a little courage and willingness to confront your partner, you can release that blockage productively. Advice from friends will prove helpful, even if it only provokes you to think of different ideas.

May 21 – June 20

You can get an awful lot accomplished. Just remember that when “staying on track,” you have to consider that the track has some surprise twists. Be adaptable and solicit input from anyone with more authority, whether by position or experience.

June 21 – July 22

You’re being a bit of a control queen these days. Well… a bit more than usual. Be open to giving and getting suggestions – especially getting. Don’t be too fixed on your goals; there are better possibilities for the open-minded.

July 23 – Aug. 22

Be confident, and wherever you find opposition to your goals, consider what your opponents have to say. They have some good ideas that will prove helpful to you. If you can find common ground to work together, all the better.

Aug. 23 – Sept. 22

Never mind the “tall, dark stranger.” A stocky, ruddy stranger is more likely to enter your life now. If you meet such a hottie, offer verbal challenges – dares, riddles, mysteries – to start what could become a very intriguing affair.

Sept. 23 – Oct. 22

You’re sexual dynamite now. You could do what you want with almost anyone. Don’t let enthusiasm make you forget what’s important in life – sexually and otherwise. Keep your head clear and your sex safe!

Oct. 23 – Nov. 21

You have a clear advantage over partners and opponents. You could take ruthless advantage, or engage them playfully, finding creative solutions to conflict and new opportunities for brilliant teamwork.

Nov. 22 – Dec. 21

Problems you’ve been having with work will soon clear up. Real progress is a week or two off, but revelations and insights now will help you get back on track. Imagine what your wackiest old relative would suggest.

Dec. 22 – Jan. 19

Sensual explorations open up new sexual horizons. Discussion with a confidant should lead you through some confusion and surprises if you are to find any real clarity.

Jan. 20 – Feb. 18

Any money troubles can point to bigger problems (and toward solutions as well!) regarding how deeply-ingrained family patterns may be holding you back from your career goals. Answers don’t come easily now, but at least questions are getting clearer.

Feb. 19 – March 19

Explore new ideas and philosophies enthusiastically. But if you try expressing those new ideas, you’ll sound like you’re channeling Edward Said via Gracie Allen. If you can let having fun be more important than being convincing, that’s not so bad.
