Q Scopes
Venus and the Sun align in Capricorn aspecting Uranus in Pisces and Neptune in Aquarius, bringing opportunities to take responsibility in new forms of relationships and to test artistic innovations. Expect another shuffling step – two forward, one back? – toward marriage equality.
ARIES (March 20 – April 19): Re-imagine the future. Be open to new possibilities. The knock of opportunity may sound like something very different. Trust your instincts and those of your friends to help you decipher the clues.
TAURUS (April 20 – May 20): Your ambitions may need some clarification in the long run, but for now, focus that vision on your ideals and your more general future. Let your professional goals adapt to those principles.
GEMINI (May 21- June 20): You are a shining sex star. Sublimate that energy to push forward in your career. New ways of projecting authoritative confidence get support and admiration in the boardroom or the bedroom. You might get both if you can keep priorities clear.
CANCER (June 21- July 22): Your relationship needs to be taken seriously, but not "too" seriously. And how important are those disagreements, really? New ideas should be played with, not imposed. Better yet, stop arguing and apply your mouth to better forms of intercourse.
LEO (July 23 – August 22): You can work at being a better lover, but it's not all about technique. That's good, too, but the most important thing is empathy with your partner, and not just in bed! For partnered folks, helping with the housework can count as foreplay.
VIRGO (August 23 – September 22): Creative efforts at work will probably be misunderstood, but don't let that hold you back. Feedback from colleagues will not only help you to clarify but also to improve your efforts, and open new doors for teamwork. .
LIBRA (September 23 – October 22): Lessons learned in early childhood can prove useful at work. The more surprising the relevance, the more helpful that old lesson will prove to be. Contacting an aunt or uncle can prove very amusing, and get you lots of good family gossip.
SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21): Whatever fun you can manage to have with family members can help heal any rifts. Playful approaches to community problems can also prove surprisingly effective. Think ahead, but be bold in creative risks.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 20): Get your accounts into order and reassess your priorities in life. A new look at traditional values (Your own real traditions, not some political group's cliche!) can help you appreciate things as you never have before.
CAPRICORN (December 21 – January 19): The fact that you improve with age is now most apparent – not only in beauty, but in wisdom. Engage freely in banter on topics that you want to learn more about. Your questions can provoke the experts to see new angles.
AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18): Hiding in your ivory tower is usually a good idea in the month leading up to your birthday. Recharge your batteries, and enjoy the company of only your most trusted and beloved friends. Meditate on the important issues to confront in the year ahead.
PISCES (February 19 – March 19): Your popularity now may seem a mixed blessing. Gauge your energies and make sure you really are going to the events you really want to attend. You can rule where you want to be. If you feel put upon, it will show badly.
