ARIES
With Saturn gone from your work sector there is considerably less pressure and if anything, the roadblocks of the past are gone. With the speed limit raised and your confidence and passion returning, this is a week for ploughing everything you have into everything you do. With Mars, planet of passion, drive and ambition due to leave your work sector on Friday and Venus spending her last full week here, before leaving later next week, follow your passions and enjoy a break from the restrictions of the past. It's Mercury, planet of communication and smart thinking's arrival in your work sector on Wednesday that allows you to play a more tactical game, while at the same time beginning a cross over period that will slowly transition things from a hectic to a more sustained momentum.
TAURUS
With Saturn spending his first full week back in your work sector and under pressure, this was always going to be a very intense and high powered professional week. But it's a Full Moon in your career sector on Monday that takes this to an even more extreme level, bringing things to a head from the get go. If you feel like you've been marking time or treading water of late, this could be the push you need to get things moving. With Mars, planet of passion, drive and ambition moving into your work sector on Friday, joining Saturn here for the first time in 3 decades this is one time when you don't need to worry about biting off more than you can chew. Once your passions kick in wild horses couldn't slow you down, with obstacles that may have stopped you in the past falling by the way.
GEMINI
You're facing an almost surreal situation as you move into the new week, a situation where for the first time in 6 ½ years you have no cosmic activity in either of your professional houses. While it may appear at first glance that things have become stalled or stuck, it is in fact the eye of the storm, giving you just enough time to regroup before Uranus returns to your career sector next month. It's a visit from the Moon between Wednesday and Friday that gives you an almost unreal sense of clarity, with your intuition likely to be right on the button. This is the Moon's first visit to your career sector where there has been no other activity to distort or complicate his message and his last for another 16 years. Stand still, take stock and listen to your intuition.
CANCER
There is a real need not to take things too seriously and to come up for air as often as possible, for all the indicators are that this is likely to be a high pressure professional week. It was Jupiter, planet of luck's retrograde turn in your career sector over the weekend that has slowed things down even more than they already were, since Uranus turned retrograde earlier in the month. This brings an opportunity for a slower and more measured approach and also a chance to back up and seize any second chances or opportunities for a do over. It's pressure from Saturn who moved into your home and family sector last week and from Mars when he arrives on Friday that is going to bring any work/life balance issues to a head, making it important not to think that you're infallible.
LEO
Having the Moon spend the weekend in your work sector has given you more of a head start than you realise as you move into the new working week, especially as it was the first visit since a lunar eclipse at the end of June. If anything was stalled or right at the tipping point, then the Moon's position and the intuitive edge it's given you is enough to get the ball rolling. This allows you to move into the new week with a lot more confidence, which is coming from the fact that you're tuned in and have clear access to your intuition. This means that you're unlikely to second guess yourself, making it easier to think on your feet and make the right decisions, especially in situations where you need to seize the moment. Your first impression or reaction is likely to be spot on.
VIRGO
Just as Chiron spends his first full week back in your work sector and you're working to find a balance between fact and fiction, reality and fantasy, the week kicks off with a Full Moon that brings a lot of things to a head. Falling in your work sector, just as Neptune and Chiron are learning to work together again, is likely to force an issue that might otherwise have dragged on for weeks if not months. While this may create some pressure on the work front in the earlier part of the week, by as early as mid week not only should any pressure be gone but you should already have a balance between reality and fantasy. Once you realise that you need both to be successful you'll be on your way, confident in what you're doing and in where to from here.
LIBRA
You're being let off the hook this week or at least that's the way you need to see it, for worse would be to see a lack of pressure or professional presence as a sign that things had become stuck. It was the Sun's departure from your career sector last Friday and Chiron's from your work sector last Tuesday that puts you in a position you haven't been in for 6 ½ years, that of having no cosmic activity in either of your professional houses. It's not going to stay this way with both Uranus and Jupiter on their way back to your work sector, Uranus arriving next month and Jupiter in 6 weeks from Thursday, on the same day that the next wave of income opportunities arrive. It's the Moon's visit to your work sector between Wednesday and Friday that gives you a chance to get your bearings.
SCORPIO
Move into the new week very aware of a need to keep things simple and balanced, with pressure on both the work and career fronts this week calling for a smart approach to time and stress management. As the Sun spends his first full week in your career sector he's met by a Full Moon in your home and family sector on Monday that is likely to create some pressure and bring any work/life balance issues to a head. Sort them out early in the week before Mercury leaves on Wednesday. It's from this point that professional pressure should ease dramatically. The same can't be said for work pressure which will escalate before it gets better, but it's the kind that brings success. Whether it's deadlines, extra work or self imposed pressure, it brings the potential for a real breakthrough.
SAGITTARIUS
While nothing may have changed on the professional front this week, everything is likely to feel completely different. Saturn's departure from your career sector last Thursday has taken away a huge amount of stress, closing the door to a very challenging visit that began in September 2007. Yet for all Saturn's pressures and challenges he's likely to have given you more momentum than you realise, momentum that Venus and Mars are working to take advantage of. With Mars leaving your career sector on Friday and Venus later next week, let your heart and your passions take the lead, at a time when you're free to follow your own course. Mercury's arrival in your career sector on Wednesday allows you to play a more tactical game. A new and much easier to manage phase has begun.
CAPRICORN
Everything about this week is huge, especially from a professional perspective with a need to approach both the opportunities and any pressure you encounter with respect. Saturn's return to your career sector last Friday means that a powerful new era that was put on hold earlier in the year is now back on track, but things might not be plain sailing, to start with anyway. It's an opposition with Uranus in your home and family sector that is likely to bring any work life balance issues to a head, giving you a chance to deal with them. It's Mars, planet of passion, drive and ambition's arrival in your career sector on Friday and his first alignment with Saturn here in 3 decades that gives you the momentum to plough through obstacles that may have turned you back in the past.
AQUARIUS
With the Sun gone from your work sector since last Friday and with Mars and Venus not due to reach your career sector until September, you have a chance to pull back and let things run their course. With your work sector active from the 20th May right through to last Friday and with a solar eclipse 2 weeks ago, a lot of water has passed under the bridge in a relatively short period of time. What you need now is time to work on projects already in motion, catch up with things that are lagging behind and generally find your stride. Then it will be time to start looking ahead, with career opportunities that kick off on the 9th September running right through to January 2011. Before you start thinking about what next, make sure that things are up to date on the work front.
PISCES
The Sun and Jupiter form an alliance on Monday that creates a link between your work and income sectors, at a time when they're both in need of an ally. This gives you the confidence to see beyond any financial and or work pressure, seeing it as working in your favour, pushing things in the right direction. It was Saturn's return to your financial sector last Thursday and Mars' this Friday that is putting direct pressure on Jupiter and Uranus in your income sector. At the same time, just as the Sun moves into his first full week in your work sector and Mercury his last few days, a Full Moon on Monday puts pressure on both, which without Jupiter's support could have caused you to doubt yourself. Instead you're likely to be asking the right questions at the right time. |
