Jupiter square Saturn brings opportunities, but not without some kind of challenge. Dig into your inner resources and present yourself at your best. Mercury in Cancer reminds us of Mother’s best advice, which will prove helpful this week. Speaking your mind will be less useful than speaking your heart.

March 20 – April 18

Invitations to play house should prove especially amusing. Open up and share long-hidden desires. Make sure you have a clear field in the kitchen and living room as well as in the bedroom. Spontaneity is good, but be prepared!

April 19 – May 20

It’s hard to find words for what you want to say, but your partner is listening and you may as well say it through some nonverbal means. Family problems need your attention. Getting help will prove to your advantage!

May 21 – June 20

You have something very important to say, and you need to get it just right. What feels like doubt and timidity could be healthy, strategic restraint. Trust in it! You should have the right words at the right moment. Don’t settle for less.

June 21 – July 22

You’re in a jocular mood, but behind your wit is considerable wisdom. Your sharp insight may be matched by your sharp tongue. Weigh your words carefully, and be nice! Or save the barbs for the truly deserving.

July 23 – Aug. 22

Life is hard lately, but your background gives you the strength to persevere, and resources even you don’t know about. Meditation and talking with Mom – or a mother figure – will help you to know your strength.

Aug. 23 – Sept. 22

Remaining silent – at least for the most part – may be best. Take in what others have to say and sift through the information. The brief but brilliant insight you glean from all you hear will prove invaluable.

Sept. 23 – Oct. 22

Your resourcefulness will get you ahead, so focus on that. Your political insight and maneuvering can help, but keep your colleagues up on whatever you’re doing or they might see you as greedy and manipulative.

Oct. 23 – Nov. 21

You’re too inclined to argue just to prove you’re right. Cool your jets and wait for an argument that has something worthwhile at stake. Whether as an arrogant bully or an eloquent hero, you will gain notice!

Nov. 22 – Dec. 21

Expect a rude reminder that your erotic needs are deeply connected to your spiritual ones. Deprivation can wither the spirit, and satiation can numb it. The healthy middle road requires integrity and some discipline – but not the type with handcuffs! Well, not necessarily…

Dec. 22 – Jan. 19

Your political arguments are very persuasive now, even if a bit illogical. Don’t be afraid to appeal to emotions. Arguments in the bedroom can be turned into role play and lead to interesting new fun.

Jan. 20 – Feb. 18

Arguments with colleagues will get you noticed by the brass, perhaps to your advantage. Know what you’re talking about and argue in a respectful, principled way. Co-workers will complain if you give them half an excuse!

Feb. 19 – March 19

Look into unexplored territories for inspiration that will serve you well at work and at play. Religious mysteries, erotic tales and archaeological secrets from far away will tease your imagination in surprisingly practical directions.
