A warm hello.
In the next 7 days:   Plans coming to fruition or issues coming to a head may be laced with strong emotions but they’ll need practical decisions and judgement.   An echo of the past will turn back time.   And a joyful highlight will put a big smile on your face.
​
ARIES.   The pressure will be on with a big commitment or undertaking that you are emotionally invested in; it will twist and turn but determination and resourcefulness will get you there.   Reconnecting with an old friend or colleague will revitalise the relationship.   A family occasion will be a sentimental highlight; it’ll spark a lot of reminiscing.
TAURUS.   A special plan or project coming to fruition will do you proud but the final push to reach the finishing line will stretch you to the max.   Past experience will stand you in good stead with demanding job conditions or responsibilities.   The joy of being with someone you can’t wait to see will be a sweet emotional highlight.
GEMINI.   A large outlay may achieve a practical purpose but it will come from the heart.   Going back to a place you rarely visit or reconnecting with a distant friend or relative will touch nostalgic chords.   Forging ahead with an exciting endeavour will fire your enthusiasm – you’ll enjoy this journey!
CANCER.   The practical side of a family event or get-together will ask a lot of you but you’ll go the extra mile with love in your heart.   A special expense – a treat or generous deed that’s become a ritual could put a dent in the savings.   Good news will put you on a happy high!
LEO.   A work change or stress that’s been on your mind will resolve one step at a time; keeping your cool to gain the full picture will serve you.   Take a little extra care health-wise.   Fresh insights will help you with an old issue with another that still touches a nerve.   A stroke of good fortune financially will put you in high spirits.
VIRGO.   Fun plans with a loved one may be quite ambitious; there’ll be learning experiences along the way.   Keeping a promise will reaffirm how you feel about a commitment or another person.   A kindness or generous offer will reach out to you; emotionally this statement will touch your heart.
LIBRA.   A family commitment or domestic undertaking will be a huge and quite expensive handful; you’ll need to plan and budget carefully.   A reunion will put you in the mood for reminiscing.   A special achievement on the job or with a physical task will be meaningful to you.
SCORPIO.   You’ll pour energy into a short trip or change of scene – you’ll love the place and the people you share it with but it will be complex to organise.   A realisation will finally hit home; this will hold an important message.   A family occasion will be like old times.   Fun outings and activities will leave you smiling.
SAGITTARIUS.   A special outlay or purchase will come from the heart; attention to details will prove advantageous.   Reflecting on the past will bring flashes of insight and a new understanding.   A domestic improvement or luxurious new possession will add to your home comforts.
CAPRICORN.   With the Full Moon in Capricorn, it will take emotional control and a calm personal initiative to address a challenging situation or issue with another positively.   A thoughtful overture from another will revitalise a relationship.   A fun place, company and communication will be like a tonic.
AQUARIUS.   You will need a clear head and practical approach to sort out a lingering problem or deal with a frustrating situation effectively.   A health, diet or fitness pursuit, or helping someone else with a health matter, may need a special effort.   A commitment or task you’re very familiar with should be easy to handle.   Good deals with special purchases and outlays will please you.
PISCES.   A special outing or occasion with loved ones will fulfil a wish of the heart; it will take careful organisation for this to unfold smoothly.   A fresh brush with a situation or experience you had in the past will bring memories flooding back.   You will feel spoiled; a generous gift from someone or delightful opportunity will drop in your lap.

A warm hello.
The New Moon in Gemini this week is also an annular solar eclipse.
An annular solar eclipse is when the Moon, seen against the Sun, doesn’t quite cover it completely, so there is a black centre with a ring of fire around it.
With the planet Mercury in the mix, Mercury is the planet of communication, this denotes an important conversation – this may be productive, timely, providential, or meaningful.
It’ll also bring opportunities to ask important questions, gather information, understand someone better or develop new ideas. 
Wishing you joy,
​Karen
