Aries (March 21-April 19)  
As the Sun makes its way through your Second House of earnings, resources, and security, you’re encouraged to reflect on these themes, Aries. Are your possessions serving you and your needs, or are you caught in a loop of serving them? Consider what’s working and what isn’t working — what’s worth repairing and what’s time to let go of? Remind yourself of what you’re grateful for and the little things in Life that you appreciate. While it’s a good time to review budgets and spending habits, it’s an excellent time for new investments. This can mean investing in your future through education and gifting yourself the tools you need to build on your talents. Your ideas are valuable and so are you! Reflect on your abilities and the ways you can improve or capitalize on them. Business initiatives and resourceful ideas are favoured. You have the confidence and faith in your abilities to spearhead important projects!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Happy Birthday Season, Taurus! It’s your time of year to recharge your batteries and celebrate the unique soul that you are. You have more energy and confidence, to express your truth and be honest with yourself about what you really want. This is an auspicious time to plant the seeds of intention for your new year ahead. Personal goals relating to your health and well-being are favoured. This is an excellent time to initiate lifestyle adjustments such as exercise regimes, better sleep routines, meditation and other wellness practices. As you align your external life with your internal values and desires, you will become more aware of the impact you have on others. This is a potent window to improve upon your relationships and how you want to be perceived. Embrace this opportunity for a fresh start. Treat it as a new chapter in your life where you are the author. Set goals that are meaningful to you. Goals that will drive you toward a more fulfilling and authentic expression of who you are. Enjoy growing into the person you want to become!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
As we get closer to your birthday season, it’s natural to feel more reflective than usual, Gemini. As your personal year draws to a close it’s a good time to consider what you want to let go of and what you’ve outgrown. This process of release can be healing and cathartic, allowing you to get past the surface of the issues and dig into the deeper meaning they carry. You can tune into your psyche and explore the inhibitions and fears you might have and work through these inner barriers. Have compassion for the beautiful soul that lives within, tenderly peeling back the layers, so you can embrace all the beauty that lives inside you. Make space in your heart to nurture your dreams and let them take shape. All kinds of new beginnings await you! It’s okay to get some quiet time away from the hustle and bustle to help you listen to your wisdom within. Meditation, dreamwork, therapy and counselling are favoured during this time, because the inner clarity gained will help align with the fresh new goals that await you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Themes related to friendships, communities, and hopes for the future are amplified now, Cancer. It’s time to push the envelope and immerse yourself in experiences that get you looking at the world with new eyes. Group experiences and collaborations are rewarding now making this a good time to attend club meetings, conferences, workshops or classes. Get the gang back together and check out festivals and events. Because your humanitarian nature is amplified, you will want to give back to the world around you in a meaningful way. You might find yourself more involved in an important cause or taking on a volunteer position. Since you’re in a more positive frame of mind, this is a good time to look at the long-range future and consider what quality of life you’re building. This is a great time to dream, bigger than usual, thinking about what you want to achieve in the wider context of your life. Set some goals, make a vision board, and reapply yourself to your long-term commitments.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
As the Sun moves across the top of your chart, matters to do with your career, your public image, and your place in the world come into focus, Leo. Take a beat and consider just how far you’ve come and how much life experience you have. Consider what your current aspirations are and if they align with the path you’re building. This is an excellent time to readjust, tweak and strategize about the future you want to create. You’re ready to spearhead new initiatives and you’re not afraid to take on the responsibilities that go with that. You might experience increased visibility during this transit. While some people are looking to you for leadership and guidance, others will see you as the right person for a bold new job or position. Remember to handle this increased attention with integrity and stay true to your values. At the same time, it’s important to consider what you need in your personal life, so you can effectively manage the balance between work and home life.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
The realms of higher learning, spiritual growth and expansive journeys are calling your name, Virgo. You’re eager to spread your wings and explore beyond your familiar boundaries. The pursuit of wisdom and knowledge motivates you to embrace each day with a sense of excitement, wondering, “What new things might I learn today?” The urge to change your surroundings is strong — even little getaways and day trips will be stimulating and interesting! This is a wonderful time to take a trip, plan one, or check out what options are available to you. Connections with people from other cultures and different backgrounds will push you to see the world from new perspectives. Allow yourself to be open, curious and receptive to the teachings and insights that come your way. This is a period of significant personal growth, where you can refine your beliefs and values based on new knowledge and experiences. You’re encouraged to explore anything that might be meaningful and align with your soul’s journey.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You’re in a potent window for personal development, Libra. The Sun joins Jupiter and Uranus in your Eighth House, which amplifies the urge for positive transformation and empowerment. You have the courage to face your fears and vulnerabilities and learn more about your own strengths and natural talents. You will look beyond the superficial and see the deeper patterns that motivate your actions. It’s a potent time to let go of old attachments and free yourself from limiting behaviours. You’re ready to start fresh while retaining the wisdom of your collective experience. You will benefit from meditation, spiritual practices and counselling because you’re in a potent cycle of rebirth and change. Personal relationships can take on a new quality because you’re more honest and open about your needs and concerns. This gives others the opportunity to express their truth and allows them to feel seen and heard as well. New relationships that develop now can deepen quickly and grow into something special. You might meet someone who transforms your world, and you theirs!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
As the Sun is moving opposite your sign at this time, the back-and-forth dynamics in your personal relationships come into focus. You’re encouraged to reject and reevaluate the key connections in your life. Are you appreciative and cooperative, and vice versa are others with you?  You can easily work on your interpersonal skills such as active listening, empathy and clear communication now. It’s a time for growth, both in how you relate to others and how you understand yourself within those relationships. Repairs and reconnection can take place now, making this a good time to mend fences and build bridges. You’re more open-minded, ready to learn and broaden your perspectives as you look at the world through the eyes of others. This energy bodes well for new connections to take root making this a favourable window to open yourself up to romance and companionship. You have the courage to put yourself out there and see what kind of adventures await!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Are you ready to get busy, Sagittarius? As the Sun makes its way through your Sixth House, the urge to get organized and take care of business gets stronger. This is further amplified by Jupiter and Uranus, and their recent conjunction impacting this same life area. You have a keen eye for detail now, and you’re eager to ensure everything is in working order. This is an excellent time to make improvements related to your craft and expand on your work or get that passion project off the ground. If you’ve been feeling stuck in your current position, now is the time to push the envelope and look for something different. Matters related to health and wellness are blessed now as well. Taking up new fitness regimes or refining existing ones to suit your current lifestyle are good choices. You will see how to adapt your habits so they can better serve your needs. You’re motivated to declutter and simplify your physical and mental spaces, which will give you a more streamlined lifestyle that supports you in all aspects of life.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) 
As the Sun moves through your Fifth House of creativity and talent, the urge to express yourself is strong, Capricorn. This might be through physical experiences such as dance, yoga, sports or just getting outside and enjoying the moment. This is a good time to indulge in the activities that bring you joy and let your natural talents rise to the surface. You’re feeling courageous and bold and ready to channel your passions! This makes this an excellent time to start an exciting new endeavour or build on existing passions. You can connect with your inner child and be ready to celebrate your unique individual nature. Romantic play and flirtatious occasions can occur now as well. If you’re single, this great time to get out there and check out events and happenings. (Or take a more direct approach through a dating app.) Those in a relationship can easily rekindle the spark of connection and enjoy some playful recreation with their partner. Family occasions are favoured as well, so enjoy time with those that you love!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
As the Sun makes its way across the bottom of your chart, matters to do with home and family take centre stage, Aquarius. You might crave some alone time to reconnect with your deeper essence and nurture your spirit. It’s good to get in touch with what makes you feel secure, and fortify your foundations. You might find yourself delving into the past, revisiting memories and exploring family patterns. We can’t change the people in our world, but we can change the way we regard them. You can bring softness and warmth to those wounds and let go of old frustrations. Prioritize the people who lift your spirits and support your aspirations. Know that your relationships will benefit from this time of healing and strengthening. On a lighter note, spring-cleaning, clearing out old junk, repairs and redecorating are favoured. What are those little things you need to do to make your home a refreshing and loving place to be?

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
As the Sun makes its way through your Third House, the urge to connect with others is strong. You’re eager to learn and engage with your community and find out what’s going on in your neighbourhood. Get out and explore your pocket of the world and discover what kinds of events and activities are happening.  It’s a great time to sign up for classes that stimulate your interests, be that for professional development or something just for fun with a friend. Since you’re in a more open frame of mind, you can use this time to challenge the mental frameworks that no longer serve you. In particular, the way you regard yourself. Is that inner voice supportive or punitive? Let go of the inner critic and replace that voice with a gentler, kinder tone that pushes you toward the positive. The same can be said for the people in your world. Make more time for those who encourage you and bring out the best in you!
Much warmth and well wishes!
