A warm hello.

With the Sun and Venus together in Leo, we’ll put a lot of love into what we’re doing, and some creative touches!

The planet Mercury shifts into Virgo for the next couple of weeks: attention to the smaller, practical details of our plans and problems will be the key to progress and success.

Moon energy joining Mars and Jupiter in Gemini will bring a burst of new ideas and a surge of action.

​ARIES.   Sun/Venus energy here indicates a loving get-together: being with family or people you care about will be an opportunity to nurture relationships that are dear to you.   A work project may have some complex factors it’s best to understand before you proceed; also, working out how best to approach or what’s involved with a health, diet or fitness endeavour will be informative.    Travelling extra distances, exploring new ideas with a new personal project, and making a special effort to connect with someone dear too far away will stretch your resources.
TAURUS.   Here are the Sun and Venus: you’ll put a lot of love into your home and family – family plans, family relationships and domestic undertakings, making your home beautiful and enjoying your home comforts.   Clarifying the details of fun plans with loved ones and special commitments with your children will help them unfold smoothly.   A surge of expenses, bills to pay or spontaneous spending could go through funds fast.
GEMINI.   With the Sun and Venus here, you’ll put your whole heart into a special personal or creative endeavour, a trip you’ve been planning, or catching up with a friend or relative from afar and sharing special moments.   A domestic task or family commitment will require careful planning; there’ll be a string of details to sort out patiently.   The Moon, Mars and Jupiter in your Zodiac Sign may spark impulsive moods, a desire for action, or a desire for greater freedom or more spontaneity in your life; you’ll be a motivated and an enthusiastic driving force – there’ll be no holding you back!
CANCER.   The Sun and Venus are here: spending freely on something you dearly want to do or special things you want to buy will come from the heart.   An important meeting or discussion will need careful preparation – thinking through your approach or double checking facts will serve you well.   Working towards a goal for the future will ask a lot of you; there’ll be much to be done in the now, to get there.
LEO.   The Sun and Venus are in your Zodiac Sign: you’ll enjoy the love that flows to you, thoughtful gestures from others and a warm popularity; there’ll also be the opportunity to nurture a relationship that’s important to you and a romantic turn of events!   Financial plans will require careful costing; the more detailed they are, the better you’ll be prepared.   Fun outings, encounters and activities will bring happy times aplenty.
VIRGO.   With the Sun and Venus here, you’ll put energy and love into keeping a commitment to another, and a goal for the future that you’re emotionally invested in, also a reunion may stir up old feelings.   With Mercury, your ruling planet, moving into your Zodiac Sign you’ll take the reins of an undertaking you’re keen to get off the ground; dotting every ‘I’ will be advantageous.   A burst of extra chores, an urgent request or a task that’s bigger than it looks will push up the pressure gauge but there should be satisfying results and achievements for your labours.
LIBRA.   The Sun with Venus here indicates you’ll put a lot of love into an undertaking or activity that’s close to your heart; meeting like-minded people will be a joy.   Also, fun outings and get-togethers will rekindle bonds with friends or sow the seeds of new friendships.   A long-term project and working through an old or lingering problem will require practical well-thought-out steps.   Going further afield, adjusting to a new environment or catching up with a distant relative or friend will test your flexibility.
SCORPIO.   Here are the Sun and Venus: you’ll pour energy into attaining an ambitious career or personal goal, something you’ve wanted to achieve for some time; you’ll also build some valuable work or business alliances.   Something fun you want to do may be expensive; doing your research will let you know if you can afford this.   A surge of financial business, complex issues and paperwork, including some inconvenient or pressing matters to sort out and some extra expenses may be a little stressful; take it one step at a time, to handle all this well.
SAGITTARIUS.   With the Sun and Venus here, you’ll travel extra distances to be with someone you love or go somewhere you love, you’ll pour loving energy into nurturing a long-distance relationship too.   Plans with others may have some complicated details, that you need to work through carefully as they unfold.   A relationship or situation with another will take a super effort and a few adjustments; you’ll also put energy into developing a new association.
CAPRICORN.   The Sun and Venus are here: you’ll have an emotional investment in a large purchase, expensive undertaking or big financial plans; it will be a joy to proceed.   Paying attention to details with travel plans or a legal matter will guide you with your decisions.   A surge of extra tasks, on the job and with family or domestic endeavours will stretch your resources; a physical task or fitness goal may also be a challenge.
AQUARIUS.   With the Sun and Venus here in your relationship zone, you’ll pour energy into your relationships – you’ll tackle commitments that ask a lot of you and do your best to make someone or those you love happy.   A financial plan or issue will have a lot of paperwork it’s important to work through thoroughly.   A fun or favourite pursuit will bring stimulating encounters with people who share your interest, there’ll also be some stimulating challenges with this.
PISCES.   With the Sun and Venus here, you’ll put a lot of love into your work, giving of your best, exploring creative ideas and PR efforts, you’ll put a lot of love into helping loved ones, you’ll also put a special effort into a health or creative endeavour.   It will take patient efforts to sort out the practicalities involved, with special plans with your mate or a relative.   A hectic burst of activity on the home front, with a surge of family tasks and engagement, or a domestic working bee, will push you to the max.    

A warm hello.

A clash between the way things have been and how a situation is changing will require new thinking and a few adjustments; finding your feet will take a willingness to move forward, rethink your approach and do things differently.    There’s an old saying: “There’s nothing permanent but change” and this is very true of this time.

Wishing you joy,

​Karen
