Pisces: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
Slow and steady does the trick during the first two days of the week. Don’t push yourself if you’re not ready. You’re raring to plunge into something new and daring during the middle of the week. This swashbuckling side feels new, yet familiar. Congratulate yourself on accessing it. Use Friday and the weekend to examine your inner life. You don’t want to get stuck in a...

Aquarius: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
If you’re feeling lukewarm about something at the beginning of the week, give yourself some time before you say yea or nay. It could be that what you really need is a different perspective. Be patient and willing to listen to all kinds of inspiration and that’s just what you’ll get by Thursday, at the latest. Now that you have this point of view, you’re ready to move...

Capricorn: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
Money — and the ways in which you do or don’t deal with it — is a fact of life. But it doesn’t have to rule your life. Being realistic about your budget helps you see that and, in fact, gives you more freedom once you know where your financial boundaries are, especially at the week’s start. By Wednesday and Thursday, you have some pretty unorthodox realizations...

Sagittarius: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
Sometimes putting too much effort into seeking a certain kind of payoff can actually have the opposite effect — as is the case on Monday and Tuesday. So give yourself a rest, or otherwise you’ll end up chasing down the same leads that go nowhere and feeling exhausted. By Thursday, that period of rest has been very fruitful — your brain has skipped ahead and found a way to...

Scorpio: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
Every circumstance contains gifts — some more obvious than others. Instead of longing for what could be on Monday and Tuesday, be grateful for what is. Even if it doesn’t look easy or fun on the surface, there are things that can enrich you as a person if you pay close enough attention. Your community needs you on Wednesday and Thursday. When they ask for your help, be ready to...

Libra: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
Living too much in the future can mean that you might be neglecting everything in your present. Use Monday and Tuesday to be honest about your life as it is, not about how life will be once a certain event takes place. The middle of the week is a good time to practice both being in the now and laying the groundwork for your future. Friday through Sunday, pay attention to how you’re...

Virgo: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
You do hand out very good advice, but watch yourself if you find that you’re handing it out unsolicited to anyone who crosses your path on Monday and Tuesday. Most likely you’re telling these people information that you actually need in your own life. By Thursday, you see that the best way to provide help is to be an example of stellar behavior — and doing a few good deeds...

Leo: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
Not every thought or feeling has to be expressed, but all your emotions and mental patterns do need to be acknowledged and examined by one very important person: you. Use the first half of the week to practice mindfulness. Yes, you’ll slip in and out of it, but that’s not a problem. It’s the process that counts — there’s no end point on this journey. By Friday,...

Cancer: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
It’s awfully tempting to take some shortcuts during the first couple days of the week, but be sure to take the opposite tack instead. The more care and diligence you put into the project at hand, the more it will pay off. In fact, all that discipline pays off on Wednesday or Thursday when you find that you’re able to be more creative in all parts of your life. Who knew hard work...

Gemini: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
Setting boundaries in relationships actually allows them to flourish, especially on Monday and Tuesday. When you’re clear about what you are and aren’t comfortable doing, you give yourself permission to be natural and honest. Paradoxically, over the next couple of days you find that you’re actually much more at ease and making more progress than you initially thought...

Taurus: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
For most people, it’s easy to think (and worry) about what they don’t have. Your cosmic assignment during the first two days of the week is to instead think about what you do have. When you do an inventory of your life, you see that your riches go far beyond material wealth. By midweek, you realize that laughter, experience and enthusiasm are more valuable than blue chip stocks....

Aries: Weekly (Starting on January 23)
If you find that you’re handing out lots of unsolicited advice during the first half of the week, it’s time to dial down your ‘Dear Abby’ side and ask if there’s some business of your own you’re perhaps ignoring. True, you are very wise, but you have to remember that people have their own lives and realities, and you don’t know everything about them....

2012 Pisces Forecast
This year puts you back in your wonderful watery element, Pisces. First off, Neptune, your ruling planet, will be moving back into your constellation in February for its full cyclic residency. You got a taste of this mystical infusion in 2011; now you can fully immerse yourself in the oceanic bliss of inspiration, oneness and compassion for the duration of 2012. You’ll feel like you’ve...

This is the year to come out of recent hiding, Aquarius. Saturn, your traditional ruler, will be making its way to your sector of fame and recognition this year, so get ready! Your standing in the world takes on great importance, especially during the latter half of the year.

2012 Capricorn Forecast
The confusion of 2011 is about to lift as clarity returns in 2012. You’ve no doubt been through a series of powerful metamorphoses since 2008, when Pluto took possession of your stars for the long haul. You’re not even a quarter of the way through the 18-year shedding process that Pluto requires … and yet you’re not the same person you were just a few years ago by any...

2012 Sagittarius Forecast
The winds of change are not about to let up just yet! With the arrival of 2012 comes yet another flurry of eclipse patterns to shake up your status quo. In June, the full Moon lunar eclipse in Sagittarius is the last of the series, bringing the final wave of a sea of oceanic changes you’ve weathered over the past few years. You’ve probably experienced dramatic endings or beginnings (or...

2012 Scorpio Forecast
Scorpio, 2012 is your year of reckoning! You worked yourself to the bone in 2011, and now you’ve hit a major impasse. You’ve got until October to continue experimenting with what you want out of life; after that, big decisions must be made. Saturn is about to take up residence in your constellation for the first time in nearly 30 years. This planet rules karma, time and integrity, so...

2012 Libra Forecast
Although many have secretly been dreading the arrival of 2012, you’ve personally been looking forward to it. That’s because karmic taskmaster Saturn has been doing a number on your life over the past two-plus years. Relationship lessons have been relentless throughout this time. If you haven’t made important decisions about where to commit - and where to quit - these are your...

2012 Virgo Forecast
This year is all about non-stop action for you, Virgo. With Mars spending the entire first half of 2012 in your sign, you may start to wonder if there will be any break in sight before 2013. The first quarter of the year will be under Mars’s retrograde influence, a transit that could push you into a semi-neurotic workaholic mode. Be sure to give yourself plenty of physical outlets in order...

New beginnings have indeed arrived in your favor with the onset of 2012, Cancer. Although the biggest changes in the love realm won’t arrive until autumn, romance will return as a central theme for you in 2012 - just when you’d started to give up hope of anything new ever returning to your life! Although Pluto has been working on deeply transforming your partnership sector since 2008...

2012 Aries Forecast
Your quest for radical self-love and self-knowledge continues in 2012. Never has the impetus to know yourself, own your core values (even if it means going against the grain) and possess your truth been more essential. No longer can you deny all that is rare and sensational about you. This is truly your breakout year in which your myriad talents will shine!

January Forecast for Pisces
The debate between your head and heart heats up with this month’s stark contrast between romantic ideals and relationship realities. Reason’s role, played by the Sun in pragmatic Capricorn, takes center stage when cerebral Mercury also enters this earthy sign on Jan. 8. Yet feelings flow freely when the sentimental Cancer Full Moon on Jan. 9 lights up your 5th House of Love and...

January Forecast for Aquarius
The New Year brings prospects of big changes, yet you’re wise to start slowly and be realistic about how long it will take to reach your goals. You still have some old business to complete with the Sun in dutiful Capricorn and your 12th House of Endings until Jan. 20. Communicator Mercury keeps your thoughts anchored to reality when it, too, visits earthy Capricorn from Jan. 8 - 27. Bold...

January Forecast for Capricorn
Your new year usually gets off to a fast start with the Sun traveling through your ambitious sign. This time, however, take a more cautious approach to reduce wasted effort because dynamic Mars, the planet of action, is slowing down prior to turning retrograde on Jan. 23. Its period of backward motion will continue until April 13 in your 9th House of Big Ideas, requiring ongoing adjustments...

January Forecast for Sagittarius
You have turned a corner and can finally see where you’re going. Your key planet, Jupiter, shifted to direct motion on Dec. 25, 2011, in your 6th House of Self-Improvement and now clears a path for personal growth in front of you. Success may still seem far away, yet it’s crucial to stay focused on what you need to do day by day.
Your professional progress may be impeded this...

January Forecast for Scorpio
Gathering information and making connections are your primary activities for the first part of the month with planets whizzing through your 3rd House of Communication. The ambitious Capricorn Sun lingers here until Jan. 20, which can raise your status when you present your thoughts in a well-organized manner. Verbose Mercury speaks with conviction when it enters earthy Capricorn on Jan. 8 to...

January Forecast for Libra
You may begin the year with heightened expectations about love. Your ruling planet, Venus, in your 5th House of Romance aligns with Mars in your 12th House of Destiny on Jan. 1. But bridging the gap between what you want and what you have can be tricky business when Venus and Mars, the cosmic lovers, form an ill-adjusted quincunx on Jan. 7.
Demands at work can also put stress on domestic...

January Forecast for Virgo
Although the year starts with the Capricorn Sun in your 5th House of Fun and Games, you have good reason to apply some self-restraint. Be careful about initiating creative projects and romantic entanglements while the Sun travels through this conservative sign until Jan. 20.
Energetic Mars’ retrograde turn in methodical Virgo on Jan. 23 is not a stop sign, but should definitely be seen...

January Forecast for Leo
Consider what you can do to save for a rainy day, because dynamic Mars turns retrograde on Jan. 23, staying in practical Virgo and your 2nd House of Resources until July 3. But micromanaging your cash flow isn’t a sensible strategy if it prevents you from seeing the bigger picture. Don’t wait for a crisis; the sooner you start to shore up your resources, the better — and you...

January Forecast for Cancer
Relationships are a key issue now with the Sun in your 7th House of Partners until Jan. 20 and in your 8th House of Intimacy for the rest of the month. Be clear about what you expect from others if you hope to make improvements in your personal and professional alliances.
Communicative Mercury marks a significant transition on Jan. 8 when it leaves optimistic Sagittarius and enters orderly...

January Forecast for Gemini
The future seems so close this month that you might just want to reach out to grab it. Unfortunately, even if you’re sure a goal is right around the corner, you might actually need all year to reach it. On Jan. 7, your key planet, Mercury, forms supportive sextiles to both Saturn and Neptune, coaxing you to believe that your fantasies are real. But mental Mercury’s entry into...

The warming rays of the Sun fall in your 9th House of Travel and Higher Education until Jan. 20, drawing your attention to faraway places and intellectual development. These aren’t vague dreams or wishes; with the Sun in practical Capricorn, long-distance connections and serious studies can raise your professional ceiling and make room for advancement. Plus, brainy Mercury’s move...

January Forecast for Aries
Your year begins with fireworks as opinionated Mercury dynamically squares impetuous Mars on Jan. 1, inciting animated discussions or even an open conflict. You may also grow frustrated if a project at work doesn’t take off as quickly as you expect, because your key planet, Mars, is slowly crawling along in your 6th House of Routine until it turns retrograde on Jan. 23. Instead of...

Pisces: Weekly (Starting on January 2)
On Monday and Tuesday, find ways to encourage yourself in a positive, consistent way instead of operating on a punishment/reward system. Believing in yourself leads the way and shows others they can believe in you, too. The middle of the week is a great time to slow down and think about ways to build on all the ground you’ve gained. On Friday, talk it out with yourself before you engage...

Why not take a chance on Monday and Tuesday instead of automatically saying no? That means being open to the possibility of failure, but it also means being open to success. If it doesn’t work, that’s simply a sign on the highway of life directing you to your actual destination. Thursday and Friday are simply teeming with opportunities. If you’re not quite sure what you want...

Your physical environment has a great deal of impact on your mental and spiritual health. Is your home chaotic and disordered? No wonder you’re not feeling at the peak of your abilities.

Sagittarius: Weekly (Starting on January 2)
The impulse to change or somehow improve oneself is part of the human condition, and you’re just as likely to feel that need, especially on Monday and Tuesday. Remind yourself that in order to change, first you need to really see who you are. That’s not always an easy task. If you succeed, you’ll find that change happens naturally in an evolutionary way, not because you...

You can be blind to your own best qualities, especially on the first two days of the week. That’s true of anyone you know, actually — it’s hard to see the best in yourself.

It’s easier to play it safe than be sorry, or at least that’s the way it seems to you on Monday and Tuesday, but you might actually be making your life harder than it needs to be in the long run. On Wednesday and Thursday, embrace the concept of short-term pain in order to make some big long-term gains and you might see that those pains are brief and not really painful at all....

Virgo: Weekly (Starting on January 2)
Asking yourself what makes your life simpler right now really gets to the heart of the matter on Monday. On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday you realize that ‘simple’ doesn’t necessarily mean ‘easy,’ and that it may, in fact, mean making a tougher choice in order for a better payoff down the road. With your newfound insight, that makes it easier to deal with. Your...
