A warm hello.

I am so sorry for the confusion.
Last week I posted your forecast in my blog, which was all about the Lunar eclipse, and I accidentally linked it to this week's video!
I do apologise.

​So here we go for the next 7 days:

The Moon starts off here with Mars, the planet of energy and action; this will rev up the pace of life in a particular way for each of us.

When the Moon travels through the Water Sign of Cancer, it forms fortuitous connections with the Scorpio planets and the planets in Pisces, the other two Water Signs.   Water is an emotional element and this suggests there’ll be an emotional highlight – something joyful and meaningful.

When the Moon hits Leo, a Fixed Sign, it’ll add its weight to the other Fixed Signs – Scorpio, Aquarius and Taurus.   We’ll need to avoid sticking to a point of view or our way of doing things out of stubbornness or pride, or it could lead to a stalemate or clash.

​ARIES.   Going further afield or rushing from pillar to post will set a hectic tempo; keep your cool, to take occasional interruptions or distractions in your stride.   The Moon here, making a grand trine, indicates a domestic purchase, family get-together or entertaining visitors will be a joy.   Avoid preconceived expectations with an expensive undertaking or financial project, you’ll need to do some research work out the cost.
TAURUS.   A surge of action with a financial undertaking or lingering matter will bring a rush of financial business to attend to, there may also be extra spending to factor into the budget.   With the Moon in Cancer here, a heart to heart with someone close will explain something you’re keen to understand and re-enforce your connection.   A stressful element to a family commitment or a clash with a relative may require some thoughtful give-and-take.
GEMINI.   Spreading yourself thin with extra engagements, fun plans and promises to keep will keep you on the go.   The Moon here for you in a grand trine will be favourable financially: this could bring a financial gain, a financial opportunity or the resolution to a problem that takes a weight off your mind; alternatively, a special purchase or gift will be something to treasure.   A problem will call for an open mind; you’ll need to explore new angles.
CANCER.   A health matter or pursuit may require extra effort, you’ll also take action to resolve a niggling difference with another.   The Moon in your Zodiac Sign, making this big grand trine, will bring a meaningful and joyful occasion, special personal opportunity or experience; fun personal plans should go wonderfully well too!   Wanting to do something in style or your style may be expensive; to keep it affordable, you may need to make a few compromises.
LEO.   You’ll go the extra mile to catch up with a friend or in your efforts to build a friendship.   The Moon in Cancer here will bring a long awaited family get-together; emotionally, this will be meaningful and it will leave a reflective afterglow.   A surprise turn of events will call for you to think on your feet and deal with a new situation with another in a flexible, aware way.
VIRGO.   Extra aspects to a task or project will be demanding; the pressure will be on to show initiative and rise to the occasion.   The Moon here for you indicates a get-together that means the world to you; it will be an opportunity to explore a new relationship or reconnect with someone dear you can’t wait to see.   An old upset or issue with another could resurface; this will be an opportunity to clear the air but it’ll challenge your communication skills.
LIBRA.   It will take a special effort to explore new options with exciting financial or personal plans but you’ll discover possibilities you didn’t know were offering.   Also, you’ll travel extra distances in the days ahead.   The Moon here signifies a grand personal or professional achievement; you’ll have an emotional investment in this!   Watch a tendency to overspend; there may be alternative, cheaper choices.
SCORPIO.   A financial issue or undertaking will rev up; big decisions, a pile of paperwork and outlays will push up the pressure gauge.   The Moon here, creating this fortuitous grand trine, indicates exciting ideas or information will inspire you with a new personal project; alternatively, an exciting offer could suddenly appear.   Your thoughts and goals with an ambitious personal or career endeavour may be different from those around you; it will be time to listen, learn and negotiate.
SAGITTARIUS.   You’ll pour energy into trying to please other people; watch the tendency to try so hard, you wear yourself out.   The Moon forming this grand trine will bring an advantageous financial development – timely news or advice, an exciting purchase or progress with an important financial matter.   A discovery will put a new spin on a problem or slow-moving undertaking; go with the flow and you’ll take change and unusual conditions in your stride.
CAPRICORN.   A special effort with a health, diet or fitness pursuit or a physical task will pay rewarding results but you may need to really push yourself.   The Moon here making this fortuitous grand trine will bring a special introduction or get-together that opens the way to nurture a new friendship or romance; alternatively, a kindness or loving gesture from another will reset your relationship.   A string of extra expenses could put pressure on the budget, also avoid taking offhand comments from others too much to heart, a defensive reaction will put you at loggerheads.
AQUARIUS.   Fun plans with loved ones, social invitations and pursuing a favourite interest or sport will require a burst of energy but there’ll be happy times aplenty!   The Moon here, forming this fortuitous grand trine, indicates a special achievement on the job or with a major personal endeavour – this could be a breakthrough!  Extra chores to help out someone close and dealing with their issues will call for flexibility and understanding.
PISCES.   Extra family commitments or domestic tasks will stretch your resources; you’ll push yourself to deal with them energetically and enthusiastically.   The Moon here in Cancer, trine the Scorpio planets and these planets in Pisces, will bring a joyful get-together or occasion that helps you get to know this person or enriches a relationship.     An awkward request or change of plans will put you on the spot; making the effort to understand where other people are coming from will ease the way.

​A warm hello.
There is such an emphasis on the Water Signs at the moment.
Astrologically, this means that emotional issues will be very much on our minds but sometimes out of perspective - it will be hard to be objective when our feelings speak so loudly.
In some situations though, they be misleading.   Taking a step back, to gain a better overview or a situation, problem or undertaking, will help you see clearly and the best way forward; it will give space for wisdom and understanding to come to the fore.
Wishing you joy,
Karen
