ARIES: Don’t be disappointed if this week doesn’t go according to plan. Remember Edison inventing the light globe. When asked how it felt to fail 1000 times, Edison said: ‘I didn’t fail. The light bulb was an invention with 1000 steps’. Expect an inspirational download from Mars and Venus in experimental Aquarius. TAURUS: Right now, solo projects aren’t likely to stay that way for long as people who share your particular niche interests enter your orbit. Be open to virtual connections, spontaneous invitations and random encounters, any of which could put some ‘oomph’ back into your life force if that’s been flagging a little. GEMINI: This week’s boundary-pushing combo of Mars and Venus in mindy Aquarius is a surefire recipe for overthinking, so dial that down. Take some deep breaths. Tune into your planet ruler Mercury in Pisces, the feeling zone will help you understand what you’re feeling, then express those emotions.

CANCER: Caretaking’s a natural role for Crabs, but it can be exhausting. So how about teaching your dependants to fish instead of baiting every hook for them this week? And focussing instead on what you want, because this is an auspicious time to be a little bolder and more forward than you normally are LEO: With adventures on the agenda, you’ll find this morphing month stimulating. But you’ll have to be diplomatic, so brush up on your sweet talk. Striking up conversations with unfamiliar others from different backgrounds or industries could revitalise creative juices and bring a completely different perspective to a current situation. VIRGO: This week’s key word: Boundaries. Second and third key words: Clear Limits. Time to politely pull the plug on demanding divas and needy energy vampires and draw on the support of your social networks. You always look after your close people, but just how comfortable are you letting them take care of you?

LIBRA: Your prima planet Venus, aligned with Mars in unconventional Aquarius, is suggesting alternative ways other than the tried, true and traditional, to pair up with in personal, public and business relationships. So, rather than the same old same old repeats, do something new this week; like chatting with people who challenge you to think differently.
CAPRICORN: Insisting on trying to understand everything that’s going on right now isn’t likely to get you anywhere but utterly frustrated. Just accept that this week may not make logical sense, because the heart operates in different ways than the brain. What’s your best bet? Getting them working together in synch.
SCORPIO: Organised plans are easily disrupted this week. But after more than a month without retrograde planets (a pleasant trend continuing till late April), it’s worth taking the initiative and reaching out to friends. Or strangers. Don’t wait for an invitation; people are busy with their own stuff. If you’re interested, it’s up to you.
AQUARIUS: As this month dives from mental-as-anything-Aquariusworld deep into the emotional zone, something you took for granted could easily turn into something else entirely. Whatever happens, it’s important to stay positive, proactive and stay away from negative thought spirals. If you need to rage, grieve or release pent-up frustrations, think physical exertion and supportive friends.
SAGITTARIUS: Been trying to do everything yourself? While this has the virtue of independence, the flipside is you are being limited by your own resources, time and imagination. Approached wisely, teaming up could minimise your workload, multiply your creative capital, maximise your effectiveness and potentially be a whole lot more fun than slogging along solo.
PISCES: Mercury diving into the astral pool for a spot of synchronised swimming in your fluid, intuitive sign makes this a peak week for relaxing and opening to spontaneous inspiration. So bow out of extraneous social obligations and on no account push yourself – just ripple, shimmy and go with the flow.
