This week begins with a solid start. On Monday, the First Quarter Moon in Virgo awakens the inner productionist — pushing us out of our minds and into the real world. For those who work in logistics, manufacturing, and any needs and service based business will feel the cosmic alignment moving in your favor. Businesses that involve health, wellness, and nutrition will also gain traction this week as well.

Although there is not much planetary movement as far as transits are concerned, the planetary aspects of the week provide us with challenging and inspirational circumstances to grow. With several aspects to Chiron in Aries this week, many of us will be focusing deeply on our own personal self growth, and how we can use our personal power for positive change.

Entrepreneurs will find this week very positive in terms of sales and exposure. If you are building a brand, a business, or sharing something important to your community, don’t be afraid to rattle the bones of others by paving your own path.

As the seasons prepare to change, and we move towards the Sagittarius Full Moon, remember to be authentic in your convictions. If you do something, do it with all your heart or don’t do it at all. This week won’t be for the faint-hearted as aspects between Jupiter Retrograde and Neptune (soon retrograde) forms a subtle square that forces us to make decisions based on reality, not circumstance.

Aries:

You always know which way to go, Aries. Your innate sense of direction and hunch for what will trend or flop is unmatched. Use that wisdom this week as Venus in Gemini forms an opportunistic Sextile with Chiron in Aries. Sharing your voice is healing for you. It’s time that you stand deeper in your light and public reputation.

Taurus:

Taurus, You may be feeling a little rebellious this week as you explore new ways to express your individuality. However, the focus is always how this can make you money. Avoid making hasty investments or decisions in the name of fame, fortune, and love. With Uranus in Taurus and Lilith in Pisces forming a Sextile in your 1st house, you need to channel this energy into something productive or risk going overboard.

Gemini:

Happy Birthday, Gemini! A new relationship comes into your life this week and brings you the missing piece of information you’ve been seeking. Avoid going to bed or crossing personal boundaries with this newbie too soon. Instead of using them just for fun or for professional matters only, try getting to know them genuinely first. Time will tell if this is true.

Cancer:

People expect you to always be strong, Cancer, but this week could pen out to be your best one in a long time if you give yourself permission to rest. You don’t have to sleep your life away (which actually may be very helpful) you just need to rest in spirit by trusting your own journey. Comparison may be a struggle for you this week, especially with the Sun and Venus both being in your 12th house of Gemini. Be open and courageous when you express your feelings. Someone needs to see the vulnerability you always try to hide.

Leo:

There’s a surge of energy coming your way, Leo Take some time to ground yourself as you prepare for the next level of growth and evolution. With Mars, Mercury, and soon the Sun now in Cancer, your 12th house of ending, this week could bring intensity to suppressed emotional issues. If family matters bring up drama this week, address it head on.

Virgo

Virgo, a huge breakthrough uncovers itself in the beginning of the week, especially in areas regarding your personal and professional relationships. If you’ve been teetering around releasing some good news, this is your opportunity to do so. The First Quarter Moon on Monday aligning in your sign gives you the lunar support you need to see it through.  

Libra

Libra, the moon aligns in your sign midweek and helps you to feel emotionally and spiritually secure. You may have to overcome fears surrounding your family, home, or emotional state of being. But once you do you will feel fresher and more able to go after something you’re working on. Especially with Mars and Gemini touring through your 10th house of career in Cancer.  

Scorpio

Are you tired of dreaming about it, Scorpio? If so this is a great time to explore more about who you are, where you come from, and why you think and behave the way you do. Childhood memories and experiences are more prominent now, especially if you’re away from home. Home sick Scorpios should make a nice comforting meal. Food is comfort now.

Sagittarius

Do you feel the rising yet, Sag? If not, wait for it!! Right now it may seem like the odds are stacked against you, but next week’s Full Moon in your sign puts you and your work in the spotlight. Something you’ve been driving for personally is about to come to pass. But be patient and diligent because there’s still some work that needs to be done.

Capricorn

You may be feeling a little blue this week, Capricorn. You could be feeling like your climbing up an uphill battle that will never end. But be patient dear one, this week is a building block for the next step of your growth. Work demands, daily chores, and health issues may throw you for a loop. But trust the process and take some time to settle in. Especially this weekend. You’ll need the rest come the Sagittarius Full Moon next week.

Aquarius

A community project could occupy much of your time this week. You may purchase a new piece of technology or acquire software that can help you save time and money. You may be feeling a little mentally and emotionally detached by the weekend. But don’t use that as an excuse to be the party pooper. If you have any love or children drama, leave it at home. Enjoy some free time this week. You deserve it, Aquarius.

Pisces

Pisces, emotionally you could feel very scattered and out of sorts. But don’t use this as an excuse to lash out at those who care for you most, especially your family. Career wise, next week’s Full Moon could have you a little confused about what direction to go. But don’t worry about that this week. Focus on listening to your heart and the wisdom of elders. There’s someone, a woman, that can help you on this journey. Be open with her.
