Aries — Today is a 7 — Discover a money machine. There’s good news from afar, and a hefty assignment’s got you in the thick of the action. Mercury is direct, with communications moving forward.
Cancer — Today is an 8 — For the next four weeks, you’ll have sweet dreams. Write them down, and if so inspired, take action to realize the one that calls to you most clearly. Your team’s hot.
Libra — Today is a 7 — What you learn benefits many. Try out a new idea. Use the materials that you find in your own closets and garage. Summarize everything with a romantic description.
Capricorn — Today is a 7 — Work gets more fun for a little while. You’re expanding and growing faster than you think. Reaffirm a commitment, and stay in action. Share laughter.
Taurus — Today is a 7 — Mercury’s retrograde (since Jan. 23) comes to an end today, with an easing of travel conditions. Still, business chugs along, and the money’s coming in. Keep stoking the fire.
Leo — Today is an 8 — An assumption gets challenged. You have tons of moneymaking ideas. Keep an eye on the numbers. For the next month, group activities go well. Go for clear, direct action.
Scorpio — Today is an 8 — Visit friends, send emails and get the word out. It’s been so sluggish, but that’s shifting. Go for an income increase. You can find the resources now.
