Aries (Mar. 20--Apr. 19):
Plan to work and play alone early in the week. You likely will be feeling restless and generally tense. Your patience could be short and you might say things you'll wish you hadn't. You have a desire to break free from restraints. It is a short transit. Look for a way to handle this moderately.


Taurus (Apr. 20--May 19):
This is not your best week for romance and social life. You may be in circumstances that cause you to feel as though you must be pretentious concerning your feelings. Possibly you are not even really clear inside yourself about just what your needs are in this relationship.


Gemini (May 20 -- June 20)
This will be a pleasantly full week. You will be connecting to lovers, children, and friends in various interesting ways. You may be researching a topic of interest. It is possible you will turn your attention to a creative venture that you began in the past but did not finish.


Cancer (June 21--July 21):
Family members feel close and offer support for whatever you need at the moment. Activities involving property or family of origin are favored. If you are looking for a bargain, this is a time to find it. One or more gifts may come your way.


Leo (July 22 --Aug. 21)
Aspects favor relationships to partners, siblings and friends. If you need to bring up old issues, now is a time that you can do so with healing intention. The channels are open all around you. Aspects favor activities involving travel and education, whether you are teacher or student.


Virgo (Aug. 22--Sep. 22):
Sometimes when you keep studying a problem, its answer just seems elusive. This is a good time to table such issues. If you allow it time to percolate in the back of your mind, you may have a sudden "Ah, ha!" moment.


Libra (Sep. 23--Oct. 22):
You and a significant other may need to have a clear discussion about your expectations of one another. You are tempted to shovel uncomfortable issues under the rug right now, but that will serve only to cause you to feel isolated and disconnected from partner. You need instead to work through your differences.

Scorpio (Oct. 23--Nov. 21):
Drive and handle tools carefully early in the week. Exercise judiciously. You are likely to be edgy and irritable, thus making an accident of some kind more likely. Avoid allowing yourself to use others and don't let them use you. Martyrism doesn't become you.


Sagittarius (Nov. 22--Dec. 20):
A relationship that is almost totally over may resurface for one last hurrah. It could result in only a telephone call or it might become a lunch date. If you have any doubts, the planets can assure you that this relationship is a relic of the past. Take care that you do not allow yourself to use others. You don't need those karma points.


Capricorn ( Dec 21 -- Jan 19):
Let the outdated self-image go. Keep only what and who is truly important to you. Between now and the 3rd quarter of '09, the main trajectory is to blend what is at your core and unchangeable for you with something nontraditional and new. This is a test of confidence and creativity, but it is timely now.

Aquarius (Jan. 20--Feb. 17):
Legal circumstances sway in your favor, but the story won't be over until the end of Oct. This is a highly favorable period to trust your intuition. You may have a desire to study or pursue subjects that lift your spirits. There are positive aspects for those who travel at this time.


Pisces (Feb. 18--Mar. 19):
Use caution with those who enter your life during this period. Some may have less than upfront motives. You are prone to hear what you want to hear this week. Previous misunderstandings related to money, insurance, or other shared resources may surface at this time
