July 26 2015 Weekly Sun Scopes Horoscopes We Live by the Sun

General for Week Commencing: Sunday 26 July 2015

Aries Monday 27 July 2015  Mar 21 - Apr 19 There is a pregnant pause across the heavens as you move into the new week, with Venus and Uranus' retrograde turn over the weekend creating a situation where there are not half as many planets in retrograde motion as there are in direct motion. With three planets having either just turned retrograde or due to turn direct they're stationary, making it feel like things have become stuck. Yet while this should create some frustration it's not, for there is a sense of awe in effect as you have a moment to reflect on the moment in history you've reached. With Venus retrograding back out of your work sector on Saturday and Saturn turning direct in your financial sector on Sunday, this is where there's a more urgent need to spend time looking back through the rear view mirror.      Taurus Monday 27 July 2015  Apr 20 - May 20 There is not only a sense of romance and playfulness in the air as you move into the new week but a potent sense of romantic nostalgia, thanks to Venus' retrograde turn in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart over the weekend. Due to retrograde back out on Saturday this is a short but intense nostalgic trip down love's memory lane, with a chance to dance with some old ghosts and draw on the past for inspiration, ahead of lucky Jupiter's return in just 2 weeks from Tuesday. In the meantime, with Saturn in his final days in retrograde motion in your relationship sector and Mars in his first full week on his own in your communication sector, there's a chance to give the past and unsaid words a voice. The professional gods will get their turn over the weekend.      Gemini Monday 27 July 2015  May 21 - Jun 21 You've reached a congested cosmic intersection, where there is an array of planets on the moving, turning direct or retrograde. It's as though a cosmic director has called 'cut' on a movie shoot and there is a mad scramble to reposition things for the next shot. For what you're entering, albeit in slow motion, is the end of one major cosmic push and the start of the next, but with a cross over between the two, while there are many subplots going on. As Venus starts setting up for lucky Jupiter's return to your home and family sector in just a few weeks' time, Mars has stepped in to take income matters to the next level, while the Sun and Mercury step in to give communication matters a push, just in time for the Moon's return to your relationship sector in the early days of the week.      Cancer Monday 27 July 2015  Jun 22 - Jul 22 While it may feel like the wind has been taken out of your professional sails, thanks to Uranus' retrograde turn in your career sector over the weekend, the Moon's return to your work sector in the early days of the week will ensure you have your finger on the pulse and ear to the ground, with an intuitive read on the undercurrents in play. This comes just as the Sun and Mercury are spending their first full week in your income sector and with Venus retrograding back in over the weekend and lucky Jupiter moving into his final 2 weeks here on Tuesday, even the professional gods sense that it's now more about the money. Yet you've also reached a special week for communication and relationship matters, with a chance to give your relationships, the past and unsaid words a voice.      Leo Monday 27 July 2015  Jul 23 - Aug 22 While the Sun's first week in your sign brings you to the start of your birthday month and new solar year it could feel a bit of an anticlimax, in that the doors to the future have been open for a while now and so are nothing new, while there is no hurry to close old doors, with permission to keep them open as long as possible. This is when it hits home that the new solar year has a running start, with so much already in motion that you know what you want and what you're fighting for from the get go. You'll have to wait until 2024 to find another year where you have lucky Jupiter in your sign from the get go and while he'll leave in a few weeks' time, by then your new solar year will be on an unstoppable roll. You've also reached an important week for income, work and relationship matters.      Virgo Monday 27 July 2015  Aug 23 - Sep 22 It seems that you just can't escape the pull of the past, which has become even stronger this week. With Pluto in retrograde motion in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart since April and Neptune and Chiron in retrograde motion in your relationship sector since June, it was mainly on the personal front that the past has had its hold on you. Yet across almost every aspect of your life the past has not only increased its hold on you but things have slowed down. With Saturn in his final days in retrograde motion in your communication sector, Uranus in his first week in retrograde motion in your financial sector, Ceres her last full week in retrograde motion in your work sector, Venus' retrograde has seen your heart join a cosmic obsession with the past.      Libra Monday 27 July 2015  Sep 23 - Oct 23 You've not only reached a week where there are twice as many planets in retrograde motion as there are in direct motion, putting a lot of focus on the past, but where with three at a standstill, either because they've just turned retrograde or are about to turn direct, there is a stillness in the air, a pregnant pause. Because this covers so many areas and aspects of your life, even those areas where there is forward and progressive movement, in your case on the career front, there's a need to pace yourself. With Ceres spending her last full week in your romantic sector before retrograding back out early next week, a Full Moon here over the weekend and Venus spending a rare few days in retrograde motion in a nostalgic part of your chart, there is a sense of romantic nostalgia in the air.      Scorpio Monday 27 July 2015  Oct 24 - Nov 21 As the Sun and Mercury spend their first full week in your career sector and especially with lucky Jupiter moving into his final 2 weeks here on Tuesday, all systems should be firing and there should be a real sense of professional urgency. However, with Uranus having turned retrograde in your work sector over the weekend and Venus due to retrograde back into your career sector on Saturday, staying in retrograde motion until early September, the professional gods have applied the handbrake. This will work to your advantage, for it comes as you finally gain access to untapped potential. It's not just on the professional front that the doors are open to the past and with the social, communication, home and personal fronts all requiring time for reflection work/life balance is essential.      Sagittarius Monday 27 July 2015  Nov 22 - Dec 21 While Saturn won't return to your sign until September and there is a huge amount of focus on the past across many aspects of your life, the Moon's return to your sign on Monday is likely to bring clues of a turnaround ahead. For 7 days, ending this Sunday there are a total of 7 planets in retrograde motion, twice as many as there are in direct motion, thanks to Uranus' retrograde turn in your home and family sector and Venus' in your career sector over the weekend. Saturn's direct turn at the end of the week will resonate most deeply with you, for it marks a personal turning point. While Venus' retrograde turn has shifted your professional focus to the rear view mirror she'll retrograde out over the weekend, just 10 days before your biggest professional year in over a decade begins.      Capricorn Monday 27 July 2015  Dec 22 - Jan 19 There is something deceptive about this week's stars, for taking in isolation and on face value it's likely to feel like things have become stuck. With Monday Day 1 of a rare 7 day period where there are 7 planets in retrograde motion, twice as many as there are in direct motion, not only shifting the focus to the past but with three of those planets at a standstill, the wheels will be turning slowly. Yet even as the gods press pause on a giant cosmic remote, it is a sense that at any moment things will spring back to life again. This is in fact buying you time, both to make the most of Mars' final weeks in your relationship sector, everything that is starting to come together financially, but also to embrace a sense of adventure. Life in the slow lane isn't that bad after all.      Aquarius Monday 27 July 2015  Jan 20 - Feb 18 While you've reached an important professional week, moving into the week with your professional instincts sharp from the get go, Saturn due to turn direct in your career sector over the weekend and Mars spending his first week in your work sector with no restraints, you won't get away with letting life become all work and no play. It's your relationships that also get a boost, with Uranus' retrograde turn in your communication sector over the weekend coming just in time for the Sun and Mercury's first full week in your relationship sector, with a chance to give your relationships, the past and unsaid words a voice. Those chances will increase when Venus retrogrades back into your relationship sector over the weekend, bringing second chances on the communication and relationship fronts.      Pisces Monday 27 July 2015  Feb 19 - Mar 20 The Moon's return to your career sector on Monday comes with perfect timing, returning during Uranus' first full day in retrograde motion in your income sector, just as the Sun and Mercury are spending their first full week in your work sector and as Jupiter prepares to move into his final 2 weeks on Tuesday. With Venus retrograding back into your income sector over the weekend, this opens the door to a chapter that extends through to September where the doors will remain open to second chances on the income and work fronts at the same time. However, while you've reached a good week for income, work and career matters you won't get away with letting life become all work and no play. The professional and money gods have stiff competition from romantic and relationship forces this week.

July 19 2015 Weekly Horoscopes We Live by the Sun

General for Week Commencing: Monday 20 July 2015

Aries Monday 20 July 2015  Mar 21 - Apr 19 Welcome to the most interesting point in the year, where there are some major changes afoot or at least the seeds for change are being planted. It all began with Venus' premature return to your work sector over the weekend, leaving lucky Jupiter on his own in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart. This is the earliest Venus has returned to your work sector in 8 years and the same thing that happened back in 2007 happens this time, in that she has gotten herself so far ahead of the Sun that she'll be pulled back in to line, turning retrograde on Saturday. This will see Venus retrograde back out later next week, but it's this dance between a playful and work focused part of your chart that is a snapshot of what the coming months will look like.      Taurus Monday 20 July 2015  Apr 20 - May 20 You'll move into the week with a whole new experience, something that will be impossible to dismiss due to the fact that both your heart and your imagination will be caught up in this. For the first time this year you'll not only move into a new week with planetary activity in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart but the planet leading the charge is Venus, planet of love. Venus only returned on Sunday and as Monday is her first full day, this really will feel like a fresh start, especially with the Moon at her side, fuelling your emotional, intuitive and imaginative responses. Something has shifted, for you've already reached an important week for communication and relationship matters and as the week progresses you'll find it harder to sweat the small stuff.      Gemini Monday 20 July 2015  May 21 - Jun 21 There is one planet that is making waves this week and for once the right kind of waves, though there might be some teething problems around this in the early days of the week. It was Venus' return to your home and family sector over the weekend that began the first steps towards what, in just a few weeks' time will be the start of your best, biggest and most expansive year for home and family matters in over a decade. However, the Moon not only followed Venus in but in the early days of the week will put pressure on your professional life, bringing any work/life balance tensions to a head. With home and family matters due to become a lot more important over the coming weeks but your professional star still on the rise, this is a chance to sort out any balance issues from the get go.      Cancer Monday 20 July 2015  Jun 22 - Jul 22 Your birthday month comes to an end when the Sun leaves your sign on Thursday and with Mercury leaving the next day this should be when a line in the sand is drawn, with your game plan for the future sown up. However, with Mars not only staying on but not due to leave until the 9th August this is what the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos has been waiting for. As the doors start to close on a period of defining your options and objectives for the coming year Mars puts his foot in the way, saying 'not so fast'. Before you fully commit to your new solar year and the journey ahead there's a chance to explore the things that excite you and your passions. You've had a chance to look at 'what is' with a chance now to look at what's possible, wanting more from life.      Leo Monday 20 July 2015  Jul 23 - Aug 22 While Venus left your sign over the weekend this is not only far from the last you've seen of the planet of desire and attraction, the desires and expectations she's spent the previous 6 weeks fuelling are only now taking on a life of their own. By the time the Sun returns to your sign on Thursday to begin your birthday month and new solar year it will be to find that this has already begun in all but name, but also that you're ready to commit to your future in a way that isn't usually possible. When the Sun returned to your sign last year lucky Jupiter had just returned and he's been here ever since, working behind the scenes to create the building blocks for the future. As the Sun comes full circle Jupiter is still here, but due to leave next month it's time to bring everything together.      Virgo Monday 20 July 2015  Aug 23 - Sep 22 This week sees the start of a dance that will play out over the coming weeks, where the past and future intersect and the veil between them blurs or disappears entirely. Venus' return to your sign over the weekend means your heart ready to move on, at a time when on both the relationship and romantic front the focus has and is still very much on the past. The past's hold on you will become stronger when the Sun returns to an intuitive and imaginative part of your chart on Thursday and Mercury the day after, to begin the month long wind down of your old solar year. However, by the weekend Venus will find the pull of the past too irresistible, with her retrograde turn over the weekend heightening an already potent sense of romantic nostalgia. Doors are opening to the past across the board.      Libra Monday 20 July 2015  Sep 23 - Oct 23 At the start of the week there are 5 planets in direct and 5 in retrograde motion, with the balance between looking to the future and falling into a sense of nostalgia teetering on a knife edge. Yet a struggle to keep the focus on the future will inevitably fail, with Venus having not only returned to a nostalgic part of your chart over the weekend but turning retrograde this weekend, taking a sense of romantic nostalgia to a whole new level. Even Uranus will turn retrograde in your relationship sector over the weekend, ending the week with 7 planets in retrograde motion and only 3 in direct motion. While the doors are open to the past on the income, work, romantic, personal, relationship and other fronts, the areas still moving forward are on the career and adventurous fronts.      Scorpio Monday 20 July 2015  Oct 24 - Nov 21 Venus is a planet that can't seem to make up her mind, while you get to enjoy the benefits. While Venus will normally spend less than 4 weeks in your career sector each year, fuelling your professional desires and expectations, attracting opportunities and attention your way, by the time she left over the weekend she had been here for 6 weeks. Yet Venus' return to a social and serendipitous part of your chart over the weekend is a chance for some light relief, with a chance to step back and let professional matters settle until the Sun returns to your career sector on Thursday and Mercury on Friday. However, while Venus will trigger some serendipitous developments while she's here, her retrograde turn over the weekend will eventually see her return to your career sector later next week.      Sagittarius Monday 20 July 2015  Nov 22 - Dec 21 From out of nowhere your new career doors are opening, at a point in the year when this isn't usually the case. With the Sun not returning to your career sector until later next month, July should be a month where work matters continue to roll over and possibly you might be looking to the future. Yet you'll not only move into the week with Venus in your career sector but the Moon as well, making sure this gets your attention from the get go. This might throw you off guard, suddenly putting pressure on your work/life balance without any kind of warning or build up. Yet with lucky Jupiter now just a few weeks away this is a practice run, with a chance to listen to your heart and professional instincts. A taste of things to come provides the incentives to make work/life balance a priority.      Capricorn Monday 20 July 2015  Dec 22 - Jan 19 While the money and relationship gods are likely to grab a large slice of your attention this week, with the Sun and Mercury both wrapping up their annual visit to your relationship sector and then returning to your financial sector to support lucky Jupiter in his final week, there is some unexpected competition. This is a time of year when the solar spotlight is always on your relationships and already the personal and/or relationship tensions of recent weeks are making way for a communication breakthrough, especially as support from Saturn in your communication sector peaks just before the Sun leaves your relationship sector on Thursday and Mercury on Friday. Yet both relationship and money matters have to compete with a new sense of wanderlust, curiosity and adventure in the air.      Aquarius Monday 20 July 2015  Jan 20 - Feb 18 This is a week where the spotlight should be on the Sun's departure from your work sector on Thursday and return to your relationship sector, something that happens at this time every year. That is still the case, especially with Mercury making the same move on Friday, but the work focus continues after they've gone and the focus already on your relationships before they reach your relationship sector. Take Venus out of the equation and you have a week where the main focus is on work, career and relationship matters and while that is still the case Venus is in the equation and there's a new game in town. You'll not only move into the week with Venus in your financial sector but the Moon as well, with your financial instincts, desires and expectations getting your attention from the get go.      Pisces Monday 20 July 2015  Feb 19 - Mar 20 Venus is a planet who will always put her interests first, going up against the rest of the solar system to push her cause and that's exactly what she's doing this week. This is a huge week for matters of the heart and work matters, with the Sun returning to your work sector on Thursday and Mercury on Friday, teaming up with lucky Jupiter for the last time until 2024. With Jupiter in his final weeks this comes just as you're ready to bring things home. Yet while the Sun and Mercury leave a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart, rather than a battle to find a balance between work and play ending it will only heat up, with Mars staying on to fuel your romantic and creative passions. It's in this crowded week that Venus thrusts your relationships into the limelight.

July 12 2015 Astrology Weekly Horoscopes We Live by the Sun

General for Week Commencing: Monday 13 July 2015

Aries Monday 13 July 2015  Mar 21 - Apr 19 At the same time that things are coming together on the home front this week, with Thursday's New Moon bringing a chance for a fresh start and new beginnings just as you're likely to find you've got the means and motivation to walk the talk, don't be alarmed by any work/life balance tension this might trigger. In many ways this New Moon is more akin to the Full Moon in the early days of the month, with the same clash between your home and professional lives occurring. Yet despite how it feels at the time the timing couldn't be better, for with Venus' return to your work sector over the weekend opening the door to a very busy and potentially successful period having the right work/life balance before you start is priceless. With this is a chance to find a balance between work and play.    Taurus Monday 13 July 2015  Apr 20 - May 20 A week that begins with a lot of focus on income, work and career matters, where the focus will remain on home and family matters throughout the week and where you're likely to be juggling many balls, with multi tasking a priority from the get go, is likely to beg the question 'what about me'? Chances are it's the same question you've been asking every week, with nothing to go on but a vague sense that your turn would come, something that will finally be realised this week. You may have to wait until the end of the week but considering you've been waiting all year you should be able to handle a few extra days, with the wait well worth it when Venus returns to a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart on Sunday, with something magical on the other side.    Gemini Monday 13 July 2015  May 21 - Jun 21 There is a huge amount of focus on income matters this week, but also on a sense of entitlement across the board and across all the currencies in your life. For as the Sun spends his last full week in your income sector, Mercury his first, last and only full week and as he aligns with Mars during Thursday's New Moon, you've got the support, clarity, smart head for money and the hot headed enthusiasm needed to make an assault on any glass ceilings in your way. The other added ingredient is financial tension, with Mercury and Mars' opposition with Pluto on Thursday creating the right push at the right time. With the support of the professional gods it won't take much to turn this into motivation, ready to stand up for yourself, your needs and right across every aspect of your life.    Cancer Monday 13 July 2015  Jun 22 - Jul 22 You reach a pivotal point in your birthday month, making this the week for making a commitment to your new solar year, the future and the journey ahead. It's not just that Thursday's New Moon brings a chance to draw a new line in the sand and commit to the journey ahead, but the conditions at the time that make this such an important turning point. Thursday not only just happens to be the same day that Mercury and Mars align in your sign, bringing intellectual savvy and hot headed enthusiasm together, but as they both move into opposition with Pluto, with any tension or pressure this creates the push needed to make a stand and take your power back. Yet by the weekend any personal and/or relationship tensions this creates will turn into an opportunity for a breakthrough.    Leo Monday 13 July 2015  Jul 23 - Aug 22 In the final week of your old solar year things get serious, as you not only reach a point in your annual month long wind down where the focus shifts from closing old doors to lining up in front of new doors, but where old beliefs, attitudes and assumptions are being challenged. This is something that happened during a Full Moon earlier in the month, but conditions surrounding this week's New Moon, has it acting more like a challenging Full Moon. Yet with your birthday month and new solar year beginning next week you cannot remain asleep at the wheel. Yet before the door even opens to your new solar year your heart is already having something to say about what the future will hold, this year knowing that it needs to be on your terms.    Virgo Monday 13 July 2015  Aug 23 - Sep 22 During the early days of the week that you'll need to have your professional and money hats on, keeping your finger on the pulse and ear to the ground from the get go. While Mercury left your career sector last week the Moon's position here in the early days of the week brings a chance to tie up loose ends, with your professional instincts are sharp as an alignment between income and work forces just happens to peak in the early days of the week. Yet apart from those early days this week's focus is more on personal and professional networking, with an opportunity to make new connections or begin new initiatives in a team or group situation. While a sense of nostalgia hangs over your personal life, you'll have a chance to take a sneak peek at what the future holds over the weekend.    Libra Monday 13 July 2015  Sep 23 - Oct 23 With the Sun and Mercury both spending their last full week in your career sector this was bound to be a professionally focused week, but even more so as Mercury and Mars align just as Thursday's New Moon brings an opportunity to draw a new line in the sand. With a strong partnership between work and career forces continuing and Saturn holding the doors open to untapped potential on the income front and with a chance to benefit from the past, this really is a chance to draw a new line in the sand. Don't be alarmed if you find that work/life balance tension comes to a head in a way that might be seeing things that came to a head during a Full Moon earlier in the month resurface. With your professional star on the rise this is a reminder of the importance of balance.    Scorpio Monday 13 July 2015  Oct 24 - Nov 21 Despite the fact that lucky Jupiter will move into his final 4 weeks in your career sector on Tuesday and Venus will leave over the weekend there is a surprising lack of urgency, so much so that even the professional gods favour embracing a sense of wanderlust, curiosity and adventure in the air this week. It's during Thursday's New Moon in an adventurous part of your chart that you're likely to find your excuses being challenged, but with Mars fuelling a passion for adventure and a hunger for life's richer experiences it won't take much to fuel a rebellion. The professional gods are prepared to be patient for they know that they'll eventually win out, with things becoming a lot more focused and operational from next week. This is a chance to blow off some cobwebs while you still can.    Sagittarius Monday 13 July 2015  Nov 22 - Dec 21 The focus will always be on money matters at this time of year but even more so with Thursday's New Moon bringing a chance to draw a new line in the sand, making a commitment to taking your power back. However, this New Moon is likely to feel more like the Full Moon earlier in the month, which saw financial and income forces go head to head. Yet any financial tensions that come to a head on Thursday is not from the New Moon, but the fact that by coincidence this is also the day that Mercury and Mars, aligned in your financial sector, move into opposition with Pluto in your income sector. Yet coming just 3 days before Venus' game changing return to your career sector, this will provide the right motivation at the right time. Income forces aren't about to take a backseat.    Capricorn Monday 13 July 2015  Dec 22 - Jan 19 It was a Full Moon in the early days of the month that brought personal and/or relationship tensions to a head, but on face value it is likely to seem that Thursday's usually benign New Moon is acting more like a challenging Full Moon. However, it's a case of being guilty by association, for while personal and/or relationship tensions are likely to come to a head during Thursday's New Moon, it's not the cause, which is instead being triggered by an opposition between Mercury and Mars, aligned in your relationship sector and Pluto, in retrograde motion in your sign. This is one last chance to thrash out any personal/relationship balance issues, with all the support and resources needed to turn this into an opportunity for a communication and/or relationship breakthrough.    Aquarius Monday 13 July 2015  Jan 20 - Feb 18 The focus is on work matters this week, with Thursday's New Moon in your work sector creating the potential for new opportunities and beginnings, at a time when the doors are open to second chances on the career and income fronts and when a partnership between income, work and career forces has locked into place. Yet you may find that there is some work tension, especially around the time of Thursday's New Moon, but this is more a call to pace yourself and work smarter, along with a chance to challenge old beliefs, attitudes and assumptions. In the meantime, there should be a lot more urgency on the relationship front than there is, with the relationship gods still getting things into position. On the professional, relationship and financial fronts it's now more about the journey.    Pisces Monday 13 July 2015  Feb 19 - Mar 20 This week hosts the ultimate showdown between work and playful forces, with a battle to find a balance between work and play heating up. It's the fact that both sides know that work forces will eventually win out that makes playful forces even more determined not to go down without a fight, with everything centred on Thursday's New Moon in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart. With Mars fuelling your romantic and creative passions and Mercury giving your heart a voice, you'll have no excuses to hide behind. Venus, who is due to leave your work sector on Sunday should be kicking up a fuss, but knowing what lies ahead on the work front she can afford to be generous. Your relationships finally get a look in over the weekend.

July 5 2015 Weekly Sun Scopes Horoscopes We Live by the Sun

General for Week Commencing: Monday 06 July 2015

Aries Monday 06 July 2015  Mar 21 - Apr 19 While the work/life balance tensions that may have come to a head during last week's Full Moon in your career sector might feel like they've followed you into the new week, it's a case of hammering home the message when you need it most. Where last week's Full Moon gave your professional year the boost it will normally get at this time of year, when things are more likely to have come off the boil, with Venus returning to your work sector later next week having the right work/life balance is essential. For while you're moving into some of the busiest months for work opportunities in a decade, you're also moving into the most important months of the year for matters of the heart and all things fun, playful, romantic and creative. Having the right balance between work and play is essential.      Taurus Monday 06 July 2015  Apr 20 - May 20 We're moving into a few weeks where there is destined to be a lot of change, while at the same time a lot of settling as well, with much of what will determine the makeup of the rest of the year developing between now and the end of next week. Coming to an end is not only a 3 month period of planetary activity in your income sector, ending with Mercury's departure from your income sector on Thursday, but a partnership between income, work and career forces that has been in play since Easter. While career matters will continue to run their course until early next month and work matters for the rest of the year, you've only got the early days of the week to work with Mercury's smart head for money. Matters of the heart, which will flourish over the coming months, get their boost next week.      Gemini Monday 06 July 2015  May 21 - Jun 21 While the Sun left your sign last month, bringing an end to your birthday month, until Mercury leaves on Thursday this continues in all but name. How can you call your birthday month over or cement your game plan for the coming year while Mercury is still fuelling ideas, giving you the means to make smart choices, decisions and plans and work on your game plan for the coming year? However that changes on Thursday, which is when the real journey begins. In the meantime, you've reached an important week for not only income matters, but work and career matters as well, with any financial tension in the early days of the week able to be used as fuel and motivation across the income, work and career fronts. Communication is essential this week, especially within your relationships.      Cancer Monday 06 July 2015  Jun 22 - Jul 22 You might hate the alarm clock that wakes you in the morning, but without it your day is likely to unravel, starting on the back foot and staying that way all day. An opposition between the Sun and Pluto on Monday and Tuesday is not only this week's alarm clock, but coming on the heels of last week's Full Moon is the alarm clock waking you up to your new solar year and the journey ahead. While you may have got away with hitting the snooze button last week there'll be no turning it off this week, not with Mars fuelling your passions and fighting spirit, in his first visit in 2 years. Yet the mental fog and lethargy is unlikely to clear until Mercury finally returns to your sign on Thursday, from which point you'll have your head in the game, ready to go. Once awake you'll like what you see.      Leo Monday 06 July 2015  Jul 23 - Aug 22 As you move into the new week it will have been a month to the day since Venus returned to your sign on the 6th June, for what should have been a 24 day visit. Not only is Venus still here, but not due to leave until the end of next week and even then return for a double dip visit just 13 days later, this time not due to leave until October, she's having a major influence on your new solar year before it even begins. With Jupiter moving into his final month in your sign on Saturday, your heart is also having a powerful voice in the launch of this new 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion and on every aspect of your life. In all you do the only question to ask is 'what is my heart telling me'? Later in the month you'll have a chance to back that up with action.      Virgo Monday 06 July 2015  Aug 23 - Sep 22 While there is already a lot of nostalgia in the air, despite the fact that the month long wind down of your old solar year doesn't begin until the 23rd July, there is a hint of new beginnings in the air. While your birthday month and new solar year doesn't begin until the 23rd August, nearly 7 weeks away, your radar will be picking up on the fact that the future is not only much closer than that, but there are major new doors due to open. As the week progresses and Venus draws closer to her game changing return to your sign later next month the lines between the past, present and future will start to blur. In the meantime, while you'll need to keep your head in the game professionally, it's the past that beckons on both the relationship front and with matters of the heart.      Libra Monday 06 July 2015  Sep 23 - Oct 23 It won't take much to use any work/life balance or professional tension in the early days of the week to your advantage, especially as it's likely to be a repeat of any tensions that came to a head during last week's Full Moon. For the second time in less than a week the Sun, moving through your career sector is coming under pressure, first from last week's Full Moon in your home and family sector and now from Pluto, bringing home the right message. Yet while this is being countered by the Moon's return to your work sector on Monday, ensuring this doesn't dent your professional confidence and you're able to use this as motivation, it's important not to lose sight of the valuable message. With everything is coming together professionally, having the right work/life balance is essential.      Scorpio Monday 06 July 2015  Oct 24 - Nov 21 While this is always a time of year where there's a sense of adventure in the air, with the Sun always spending the first 3 weeks of July in your sector of travel, adventure, learning and discovery and this year you have Mars fuelling a passion for adventure and a hunger for life's richer experiences, you've also reached the most important point in your professional year. Working smarter and smart time management is essential, especially if you want to have it all. It comes down to appreciating the importance of embracing a sense of wanderlust, curiosity and adventure, not as something you get around to when everything else is done, but something that is woven into the fabric of your everyday life. Finalise your financial game plan before Mercury leaves your financial sector on Thursday.      Sagittarius Monday 06 July 2015  Nov 22 - Dec 21 With a big focus on money matters this week, financial tension in the early days of the week will not only fuel your financial passions and fighting spirit, but a sense of rebellion on the income front. However don't let this over ride everything else. In particular it's your relationships that need your attention and while financial and income matters will continue to evolve, especially once Venus returns to your career sector next week, you've only got the early days of the week to focus on your relationships. The fact that you've had months to do this could lull you into a false sense of security, believing you have all the time in the world. However, with Mercury leaving your relationship sector on Thursday his final days are all about making sure the communication lines are open.      Capricorn Monday 06 July 2015  Dec 22 - Jan 19 With a lot of big developments this week, especially on the financial and relationship fronts it's the Moon that will have a big influence, especially in the early days of the week. On face value there is nothing remarkable about the Moon's return to your communication sector on Monday or position here in the early days of the week, for returning every 4 weeks this will always bring a chance to give your emotional responses a voice. What makes this so important is that Monday and Tuesday will see personal and/or relationship tensions that came to a head during last week's Full Moon flare up again, with the Moon arriving just in time to turn this into an opportunity for a communication and/or relationship breakthrough. Throughout that time you'll need to keep your work and money hats on.      Aquarius Monday 06 July 2015  Jan 20 - Feb 18 While this is a week where the battle to find a balance between work and play continues, by the end of the week it will have come to an end, with work forces emerging triumphant. There is no doubt that Mercury, in his final days in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart before leaving on Thursday is the underdog, especially as his departure brings a 3 month push to an end. With things not only coming together on the work front, but the whole of July dominated by a powerful partnership between income, work and career forces you not only have to work with Mercury in his final days, but carry on the crusade to make matters of the heart a priority after he leaves. In the meantime an important week for relationship matters needs you to wear your heart on your sleeve.      Pisces Monday 06 July 2015  Feb 19 - Mar 20 While forces on both the work and playful fronts battle for your attention this week, it's an evenly matched battle. With the Sun keeping the solar spotlight on matters of the heart, Mars fuelling your romantic and creative passions and Mercury returning on Thursday to give your heart a voice and to put heart and mind on the same page, things are very robust in this fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart. At the same time Venus and Jupiter, coming out of their alignment in your work sector last week, continue to go from strength to strength, with forces on both the work and income fronts especially robust, making it easy to find the right balance. What really needs your attention is home and family matters, especially in the early days of the week.
