TAURUS (Apr. 21-May 20)
If you thought you were settled in your mind during September and October or had an agreement sorted, only to experience matters not taking the path you expected, now you can consider things from a different perspective. New priorities could emerge or you realise you need to change them. You can move forward to mid April.
LEO (July 23-August 22)
It has probably been difficult to get yourself going to the degree you are used to since early December. The expectations of others may now begin to change that until mid April. There could be something new expected of you that could challenge your own priorities. There should be ways to work around this where any obligations are concerned.
SCORPIO (Oct.23-Nov21)
Someone else could have some alternative suggestions that will enable you to pursue your goals in a different way for success, especially if you had tried something during September and October that didn’t go anywhere. It probably means you need to inject greater flexibility or choice into the situation.
GEMINI
(May 21-June 20)
New obligations or responsibilities could come your way. Financial changes during September and October that have left you floating could now begin to turn around up to mid April. This could include situations with work. Don’t worry if it is not exactly as you would like as other opportunities can present themselves later.
VIRGO
(August 23-Sept.22)
Other people will be willing to accommodate things important to you in any situations where they require your involvement. This could mean a way forward that was difficult to generate during September and October. There will be something new, which might mean a new person involved. You still need to watch the level of obligation on your part.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.18)
You can now move forward to mid April with getting a better routine in place that you might have attempted during September and October without luck. This can involve your finances, especially if you feel you have been forced to be more practical. It might also be associated with your health, fitness and general well being.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.22-Dec.21)
Somebody else can be secretive when it comes to their expectations and this could have been difficult to deal with during September and October. Whatever you are working at putting in place now will turn things around up to mid April. They will have little choice but to go along with it. There is beneficial support from others.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-March 20)
The New Moon this week occurs in your sign encouraging you to focus on the benefits you have in life. You could be able to make some decisions on matters that you expected better results from in September and October. Things can move forward now to mid April but much of this is based on you accepting personal responsibility.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
Whatever you attempted to put into place during September and October that hasn’t quite worked should now be tried again as Mars, the planet of action will now move forward in your sign until 18th April. Your energy level should pick up and so should your self confidence. You could now realise a better way of aiming for your goals.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.22)
Obligations you couldn’t completely fulfil, or were not happy about, during September and October can now be turned around up to mid April. This could be due to having more detail at your disposal now or that you have been able to work out more practical ways of dealing with the details. It opens up future possibilities.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22
-Jan.19)
You can finally feel you have a better understanding of the position of somebody else that didn’t go where you thought it might during September and October. Communication can open up a lot more now, mainly because they will feel more ready to move forward. New things can arise to incorporate into usual routines.
ARIES
(March 21-April 20)
Mars, your ruling planet, begins to move forward this weekafter holding you back, one way or another since early December. Anything you attempted to restructure during September and October without the success you expected can now be attempted again to mid April. You might realise a different way of doing this now.

Feast of Nations International Potluck
The Home on Native Land production team presents A Feast of Nations International Potluck on Friday, February 28th at the Burns Lake Heritage Church on First Avenue. Doors open at 6:30 pm and the potluck is from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. “Where are you from?” is usually the first thing that comes to mind when we think about home. Here in Burns Lake, people have come from many countries and cultures, and enjoy many cuisines. What better ways can there be to experience the world at our doorstep than through food? Bring a pot or platter of your favourite traditional dish and join us in a celebration of the diversity found right here in Burns Lake. It may be a small world, but there’s plenty of food to go around.
