HOROSCOPE

ARIES
(March 20-April 19)

Happy birthday, little rams. Remember, during your birthday month you can wish for something you'd like to accomplish within the next year, but do it between the new moon and the full moon. You also may make a wish and set a goal for the month. Okay, more news, little ram. Solar eclipse coming up— the last eclipse in your sign until 2013. Those of you who have birthdays between March 24 and April 3 will feel this eclipse the strongest, but all of you will get a piece of it. It is just closer to those born four to five days before or four to five days after the eclipse. Eclipses bring change. They are not to be feared. On Saturday, Mercury ends its retrograde period and barrels ahead, so now you may launch new projects and get contracts ready to sign. Mr. Miscommunication will not be back until July 4.

Dear little Virgo, a lunar eclipse played out in your sign two weeks ago, and now it is Aries' turn to host the solar eclipse. Yes indeed, Wednesday afternoon, shortly after the new moon. Mars and Venus are sending good news to your career house. Your day-to-day work should flow easily this week. Good news. Mercury moves direct and miscommunication clears up. You may suddenly hear from a partner from your past, or at least a past relationship. Mercury and Uranus get together. Unexpected news. This is the time to go for something you have been after. Do not be afraid. You have been spending a lot of time detailing and analyzing, and now Mercury has moved out of retrograde. You probably feel a little grounded. Well, so what? You are an earth sign. Plant a seed or two during the new moon.

Mercury moves direct. This brings better communication. Now you are the detective, so back and scope this out. On Wednesday, we have a solar eclipse in Aries. If you are old enough, go back to March 29, 1987. Did this clip you from a few of your daily chores and bring in something new? Expect the unexpected. Venus and Neptune allow you to daydream and you may share this with family members. Mars winks at Venus, and you hear from someone in the real-estate business as well as those from home. Expect the unexpected in the department of love, fun and gambling. All is good. Venus and Neptune sometimes send you to your dream house. Some of my clients have moved with this aspect, while others have made major renovations. Now pull out your spyglass and get ready for the eclipse. Remember, eclipses do bring change of some sort.

SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You, the writer of the zodiac, should enjoy this week. Saturday evening, Mercury moves direct. No more miscommunication. Solar eclipse on Wednesday with the sun and moon in Aries. Wish a happy birthday to your Aries buddies, the host of the eclipse. Back on March 29, 1987, was the last time we had this eclipse. If you are old enough, search back and remember what occurred around this time for a hint of what to expect. This eclipse does occur in your fifth house of fun, love, luck, children and creativity. Share your dreams with others as you stroll down memory lane. Lady Luck is on your side. Fabulous communication with your relationships, both personal and business. It will be seven years before another eclipse occurs in Aries—a lunar eclipse in 2013.

(Dec. 21-Jan. 21)

Dear Capricorn, share your dreams and values with others. Your daily work is action-packed. Use your energy wisely. Mercury, the retrograde planet, changes directions again Saturday afternoon. This is a marvelous time to make changes. The eclipse that falls on Wednesday has not occurred since March 29, 1987. This exact eclipse will occur again on March 29, 2025. The Wednesday eclipse occurs in your fourth house of home and real estate. Could mean a move you and your family make from your home. I have seen this aspect with other eclipses in this fourth-house position. It has always been a change involving real estate, the home, roots of some sort, a major change. Many of you other little mountain goats just move into another home and others return home. Eclipses bring change in some way.

AQUARIUS
(Jan. 21-Feb. 20)

Mercury moves direct on Saturday. No more miscommunication. Now you can begin your new projects. Aries, you are celebrating your birthday this month and on Wednesday you also will host the solar eclipse with the sun and moon in your sign. This eclipse lands in the third house of your chart. Go back to March 29, 1987, if you are old enough, and you may see what to expect from the eclipse. A love relationship flows in this week when Mars gets together with Venus. This is also a wonderful time for creative ventures and for taking a little time out for fun. This is the week with sudden good news in the department of real estate and other personal possessions you value. Saturn sends structure to build and get organized in the relationship department. Pluto—Mr. Business and the power planet—allows you to join groups, clubs and organizations. Share a few ideas and tell others about your hopes and wishes. The new moon says it is time to make a wish and set your monthly goal.

PISCES
(Feb. 20-March 22)

There's action on the homefront, little fish. Share your daydreams. Venus and Neptune hold hands. Mars sends a wink from the homefront and all is great. Eclipse in Aries. Now this has not occurred since March 29, 1987. Nineteen years ago. This eclipse will occur again on the same day 19 years from now, so write down what occurs during the eclipse. Whatever is clipped out of your life or brought into your life may occur again on March 29, 2025. Now put this in your computer bank. The moon hangs out in your sign on Sunday and Monday, sending hugs to Uranus and Mercury and a kiss to Jupiter. This should bring luck your way. Mercury moves forward. No more miscommunication. Now you may begin new projects and sign contracts as communications flow easily. No more redo. That department closes down until July 4, when Mercury allows you to finish the projects you work on during the next three months.
